No, he's probably in a remote island from wano after the volcano explosion
Knowing Oda and his phobia of character deaths now, I wouldn't be surprised if Kaido and Big Mom got the team rocket blasting off again treatment by the volcano.
Oda keeps leaving "confirmed deaths" ambiguous possibly deliberately so he can bring back those characters later via asspulls if needed.
Isn't it crazy that at Wano we had "confirmed deaths" for Kaido (not fully like Big Mom yet apparently though), Big Mom, Kanjuro, Orochi, Asura, Izo and 2 CP0 members?!
Plus Kinemon and Kiku were meant to die too?
We also had confirmation Oden was killed abd thus Toki too and Oda wont be ass pulling a way for tgem to come back, at least no during Wano now it's over ofc.
Does this sit right with anybody else? All if these deaths suddenly? From 2 ambigious deaths for Vergo and Monet, a blatant shameful fakeout for Pound and whatever else too?
I know we wanted a fair bit of death at Wano but they felt so forced, random and shallow to me.
Star Wars asspulled Palpatine coming back apparently and I've seen a soap opera TV series bring back "dead" characters after years or even decades maybe.
I've heard of movies doing similar shit too and Shonen series are famous for it too (looks at Naruto and Fairy Tail).
Vegapunk believes he will probably die soon but I doubt it at all. Would be the worst moment of the series for me by far if he does die tbh. Worse than Aces actusl death, the triple Sabo "deaths" now at least, Cobra being killed offscreen apparently, Kuma being rescued with no explanation how, Yamato and Carrots awful handling by Oda, the Nika DF retcon and finally the awful "deaths" and handling of Kaido and BM too.
Random essay ramble rant over anyway lol.
