Aside from the cartoon eyes thingy, I can dig the fight
Luffy imo, has little to no control over his awakening
He can turns his surroundings into rubber, Paramecias awakening as stated by Kaido
He can reshape his body like Katakuri to reduce the damage done by kaido, but it still hurts him
And the worst part is, He also turns Kaido into rubber, not sure how is that going to deal massive damage to his opponent, it looks like he just wanted to make Kaido exhausted from all the nonsense
Luffy also seems to force himself, kinda reminds me of the Thriller bark fight where he looks fine but the pain bubble created by Kuma is huge, the after effect after he defeats Kaido is gonna be hell, but then again he's an awakened Zoan now, so his body gonna recover quickly
I think this is what Oda's want to tell us
Kaido won't be defeated like the usual villain
He's not going to be knocked out, he's not going to get killed
So he probably gonna get exhausted from all the nonsense Luffy brought, and laugh it off alongside Luffy at the end and admit his defeat while realizing Luffy is Joyboy
Which is why Momo is not doing his job, if kaido was meant to be knocked out, the cloud will be gone and they all gonna crash into flower capital and die
Idk of all people I think Kaido knew about joyboy's tale, maybe it's from his tribe passed from generations to generations, or maybe he read it from Rocks journal when Rocks perhaps managed to reach Laugh Tale
There won't be break next week, perhaps we would get Kaido's flashback
