im still pretty sure Oda will make a novel in collaboration with Boiichi (Dr. Stone mangaka) about Kaido extended flashback because Ace novel already ended + Dr. Stone already ended too.

Possible, but let's wait and see if Yamato gets a relevant flashback, then you have to wait until we potentially get a Rocks one as well. Hell, maybe we get more stuff this next chapter or the following, regardless if he's defeated or not.
From ages 10-15, Kaido's life probably wasn't THAT much more interesting then the 3 pages we got. He was with Rocks for ~5 or so years (God Valley happened 39 years ago so from 15-20 he was with them), and Rocks certainly covers probably the more interesting portions of his life. I assume that 10 year timeskip is:
- Him finding King after God Valley (King is only 47, so to be a teenager was 30-35 years ago)
- Him finding Queen at some point too (not explained.
- Him meeting Yamato's mother 28+ years ago (assuming it's not.....who we think it might be lmao)
At this point, Yamato's flashback, if she gets more, could cover some backstory, mainly the 20-28 years ago range.
After that, nothing else is really needed, they ruled Wano for 20 years and nothing really changed outside of him being stopped by Shanks 2 years ago.
Tldr: Kaido only really has a few more points of interest to cover:
- The 5 years he was a Rocks Pirate (when he was 15-20; 100% will be shown later)
- The 10 year gap after the Rocks incident (when he was 20-30; imo, not likely to be shown outside of the one scene with him saving King)
- The 8 year gap from when he had Yamato to when she was 8 (when he 31-39; possibly shown if Yamato gets a flashback).
- His age from 39-59 is not important. He's been a reigning Yonko probably since Roger died.
