Thats why I said as far as we know. Its just an assumption we have to make because we didn't see them die and thus no bodies either, assuming their bodies havent been vaporised by the magma anyway too.
Their "deaths" are so anticlimatic, so overlooked, so ignored given 2 legendary emperors and pirates in general for several decades and this is how they go out? It doesn't make any sense. Not even getting to see reactions from the BM pirates especially ones like Perospero wherever the fuck he is if he is even alive too, Smoothie, Katakuri, Pudding etc, Yamatos reaction to Kaido being dead as well as the Calamities reactions etc.
This almost feels like a fever dream/Twilight Zone scenario.
Pedros death is difficult to prove too as he was probably blown into smithereens with no corpse left behind, no whole body so to speak. Oda wont show that kind of gore and thus death/corpses like that, so I think hes killed off Pedro in an ambigious way to make it more "family friendly/sanitised/censored" or whatever. Idk how to phrase it well.
I dont see the point of Pedro being alive at this point unless hes gonna turn up in the Germa cover story or something but even then idk. After all the shit about Pedro and his death at Wano, I rather he is dead now and stays dead. I've had enough of death fake outs for one lifetime and especially one certain series.

I meant him showing up at the same time as Green Bull. I've wanted Shanks at Wano for a few years now at least. I guess I should have specified more lol, I was too vague.
