Damn bruh 
I don't believe in ZKKC simply because I don't think any one person is beating Kaido 1 vs 1, not just Zoro. Team-ups, group battles and outside faction interference will wither away Kaido's HP, and Luffy will get the final blow. Zoro certainly could be involved in the Kaido boss fight as a part of the team.
Honestly, as long as Zoro gets an entertaining fight, which I'm sure he will, I'll be happy regardless of opponent.

So the first time Zoro displayed those "spirits" were against Hachi in Arlong Park?
He used Tora Gari against Nuyaban brothers and Mihawk without displaying any spirit manifestation
But when he used it against Braham in Skypea, we can see the tiger spirit
Those spirits have no connection to his swords as I can see the spirits again when he fights without sword here:
Something must have happened to him after his fight with Mihawk. Or may be I am overthinking, those dont really mean much. Anyway, its fun to find those panels as Oda draws those only for Zoro.
Btw, how many times have we seen those post-TS?
In FI once:
and then against the dragon in PH:
Only these 2 times? @Light D Lamperouge
@Guan Yu can you link the post of @Light D Lamperouge on Zoro's spirit manifestation and my post on Zoro's attacks based on Buddhism on the first page so its easy to find out later?
Thanks, very well done.

Yeah. I was going through them and didn't see them.
This one I missed. Thanks.
Could be. I am not sure if we can conclude something as of yet, but maybe his will/desire to surpass Mihawk sky rocketed after his duel and maybe awoke those spirits in him. Yeah it's really fun.
I think so. In Sabaody he didn't fight. In PH and FI I think it's only those ones. I might have to check DR but from memory I don't think there was something there. Zou nothing much and so far in Wano nothing iirc.
Someone might wanna double check this, and correct me if I am mistaken.
Thanks.

Oda may have not fleshed out the concept yet. He seems to have added the spirit/aura accompanying Zoro's attacks after his Mihawk fight. I'm not convinced the Mihawk fight was the impetus for their manifestation, there doesn't really seem to have been any indication of that.
So far most of these spirits provide mere aesthetic appeal, but they might further Zoro's demonic theme. Some of his attacks do seem to have supernatural qualities:
The main reason to think there's something to the spirits is that Kaku implies that he created Asura with his spirit:
So perhaps the spirits that accompany Zoro have functions beyond mere aesthetics.
On another note, if like BOAT Asura is retconned to be an application of haki, I favour it being an advanced application of colour of armaments haki. Instead of welding your aura as an invisible armour, you shape it into solid objects (in Zoro's case the extra arms and heads). Others with these ability could e.g. manifest claws, gauntlets, real armour or other armaments with their aura. This is just a fanfic for now though.

- Embina Yonezu Oni Giri: his swords wave and bend.
- (Kokujo Ou) Tatsumaki: he creates a tornado.
- Kiki: Kyutoryu Asura: he manifests two extra arms and two heads.
- Hiryu: Kaen: wounds inflicted catch fire.

As I said before, Zoro's pre attack chant here is my favourite of his pre attack chants so far:
"The self in a forsaken world, rend".
@Yukihime do you have any idea what "the self in a forsaken world could refer to"?
FTFY.
Yea, it and other archive sites.
I'll try to take a look tomorrow.
Tag me when you do.

Note: The Rashomon gate, from which the Kurosawa movie takes its name, was once the grandest gate in the former Japanese capital of Kyoto. In English "Rashomon" often represents a situation in which subjective perceptions create differing accounts of the same event, because that is what the film is about. However, in Japanese, "Rashomon" also represents the decay and corruption of culture, because the gate fell into disrepair and became a place for thieves, corpses and unwanted babies.
Probably thats where the "forsaken world" comes from.
@Fenaker already posted this I guess.
I have some vague idea on the suffering part from the perspective of Buddhism. The carnage part is a little confusing.
Carnage means slaughter or massacre, right? I dont understand which "path of slaughter/massacre" Zoro is referring to here.
