Depends how fast the fights start.
The flashback still has another 3-5 chapters, most likely. I think it'll be another 20 odd at least for setting up the fights- especially since Oda hasn't even introduced the remaining Tobi Roko and the Numbers. Based on his previous chapters, it'll then be about 5 before the first fight is won.
The fights will more than likely follow the pattern of 1 chapter for the lesser opponents (Tobi Roko), 2 for the Calamities, about ten for Luffy vs Kaido. The most conservative estimate here is 20 chapters purely to finish the fights. Oda might treat us and give each Strawhat a two chapter chunk like he did in EL, but given his recent statements I find that unlikely.
Then a rather large post fight chunk of story- probably of a similar length to the aftermath of Dressrosa and EL, so 10ish chapters.
So my guess would be ~60 chapters, putting the finish round about next... summer? I think.

since oda statement about ending in 5 years the pacing became really faster so with that in mind:
-3 chapters to end flashback
-10 for the doomed raid
-8 for The kaido/rocks flashback hopefully more
-30 for the real war
- 10 for the aftermath
Not sure were Toki will fit could be in the aftermath part probably
we get a total of 60 chapters

If we go by Oda's schedule, the number of chapters this year will be around 39 chapters and adding around 4 or 5 chapters for the beginning of 2021, we will get approximately 44 chapters. Personally, I don't think that is enough time to end the arc. Unless he 1-chapters all the fights. There is no way that King, Queen, and Jack let alone Kaido and BM are going down in a single chapter battle. Personally I think that the flashback is over, for now, we will get another flashback nearer to Kaido and Orochi's downfall that will show Oden's execution lasting around 3-4 chapters. We still need to see the SH's struggling in their fights, Kaido defeating Luffy in the first bout, what happens with BM, the arrival of Jimbei, the remaining flying six and the numbers being introduced, Kid and Law's intervention in the fights, Kaido and Orochi's downfall which will at least by itself be around 10 chapters, the epilogue and then you have what happened to the Shichibukai and also what Blackbeard is doing which will be interspersed with this arc and going by that we will at the very least need around 60-70 chapters. Unless Oda pushes his schedule to 5 or 6 chapters then a break, we won't be ending Wano until 3/4 of the way through 2021.
