How the fuck does that work? If Kaido can still fight after fighting Luffy while Luffy can't, then Kaido IS THE ONE WHO WON, simple as that
So what you're basically saying is that Luffy won't do shit and will need Zoro's help after defeating King to kill Kaido, and what an utter crock of retarded shit that is. Luffy is the man who will become the king of the pirates. But he still need to disgracefully defeat his end-goal enemies 2v1 so that Zorotards can jerk off over that chapter until they're depleted
What you're saying is so stupid it's on the same tier as saying that Sanji will help Zoro defeat Mihawk EoS
The fact that Kaido recovers from defeat alone implies that he got
defeated in the first place, but let me try and help anyways.
I don’t know where you get this idea where they both fall at the same time and only Kaido gets back up.
This isn’t a Katakuri scenario...
All Oda has to do is paint Luffy as the victor of a 1v1 fight.
Luffy knocks out Kaido.
Kaido is unconscious.
Luffy isn’t.
Luffy doesn’t have to go unconscious now, in fact, he likely won’t be unavailable until later on.
It is only later that Luffy becomes unavailable, whether that’s because he is fighting Big Mom or plain passes out, it doesn’t really matter.
He would have been portrayed as the winner of their fight. That’s all that’s necessary.
Also, we’ve already seen this sort of logic at a smaller scale so I dunno why you come up with that “Sanji helps Zoro with Mihawk” rubbish.
Who puts an end to Don Krieg?
It certainly wasn’t Luffy, he was getting saved by Sanji in the water.
Even Tashigi v Monet is more akin to this than what you came up with.
Why does Zoro say “you can have all the credit” after Tashigi finishes Monet?
What’s the implication here about who gets credit for what?
When we see Luffy knock Kaido into the ground, and Kaido is unconscious.
Every single character on Onigashima, will give Luffy the credit for winning against Kaido. Even Kaido himself will likely give Luffy credit for defeating him... lol
When Kaido recovers and returns an hour later (or whatever arbitrary time length later. just enough so that people have “forgotten” about Kaido), Luffy’s achievement isn’t getting revoked.
Though, we’re going to need someone to put an end to Kaido’s life.
Zoro isn’t sitting here waiting for Kaido to comeback, he’s betting on Luffy defeating him and that resolving everything.
However, we will all see that defeating Kaido doesn’t put an end to this. (Hint: That’s why killing him is described as a second challenge, after defeating him 1v1)
The correct example with Mihawk would be:
Zoro defeats Mihawk in a big city.
Zoro leaves an unconscious Mihawk alone, thinking that he won’t recover at all.
Zoro could pass out later on, or could be fighting other fighters.
Mihawk eventually recovers from his Hawk Hawk no-mi’s awakening.
Mihawk attempts to terrorise the city.
Sanji kills Mihawk.
This would be more correct, but of course, we know that the Mihawk fight won’t go this way because Mihawk doesn’t have a power that allows him to recover from
DEFEAT.
Also, saying “Luffy is the man who is going to become King of the Pirates, he cannot have assistance for anything!” despite this 1v1 fight having started AFTER a 5v2 fight, which started AFTER an 8v1 fight, is a little... lol
Hope this helps.
