Powers & Abilities Oda is being very one dimensional with Kid’s power

But in the end they will fight side by side and respect each other. I can't see them becoming enemies.
Respect is clearly already there, but competition too.
During all Udon and the naval battle they have been salty at each other. Luffy never saw other SN as rivals, neither Law.
I can put my balls on fire right now that after the war Kidd Pirates will be the only crew to still rapresent a danger for Luffy's dream.

I can definitely see them becoming enemies after Kaido is out of the picture. Kid wants to become Pirate King so Luffy is an enemy to his goal.
What I mean is I don't see them fighting in the near future, and don't see them fighting over the pirate King title. I may be wrong but I don't think Oda has time for that. Maybe he wanted to but now to me it seems too late for that.
BB and the WG/marines are the enemies left with maybe a transitional arc where he learn awakening or adv CoC.

Why just balls? Put the whole body on fire :kriwhat::steef:

Oda can do A WHOLE LOT MORE with thousands of characters created and their DF too... Kidd is no different imo, because after this arc, his relevence to the story will get LESS AND LESS as time passes...
I don't think for one second that there will be an arc where Kidd is major opponent for luffy... we are too late in series for that... we are on speed train to finish the series... and Kidd just imo will be one of the contineous rivals who just show up aiding Luffyor SHs in different fights... but not really someone who will for example become major opponent for Luffy and get that build up... most supernoav aren't anyway
Their rivalry doesn't extend more than being in same generation, that's all

Keep sleeping on him, you’re in for a rude awakening.

Is there anything I missed though? Last I see him is when he destroys the gates of Udon, then next time I see him is at the harbor with Luffy and Law.

Is there something I’m forgetting that made him change his mind?
I think He afterward said to Killer that he doesnt want Luffy to take all the glory of Kaido's defeat

I have zero problem in Kidd playing bigger role than my expectation...
But my only concern is you all "spamming threads after threads" hating on Oda and on One Piece when the arc finishes and series finishes and your guy has roles that didn't meet your expectations...

Cause this is basically the thing... giving us things HIGHER than expectation will never make us create many threads complaining
But having less than expectations... I'm sure we will get tons of hate and negativity around here

I won’t hate Oda for giving Kid less of a role than I expect from him but I will complain if he humiliates Kid’s character after giving him the portrayal he has. Oda is the one who set the expectation of Kid being a big rival to Luffy.

If Luffy is Roger at the end of One Piece, Kid will be Whitebeard, that’s how I see it.

Right, but he isn't the main character, so let's accept it that one piece is Oda's manga, not us.

I think Kid's df can do like:
- asura path Nagato
- float by magnetism (if he can control the direction so fluid) like doffy by string
- flying with ease like doffy so relax being so far from cloud so doffy need long string.

in terms of current chapter, he can just sent his metal way up to the hole that Kaido made (like issho at dressrosa) then Kid float to sky like he did when with luffy & law before Jimbeiappearance.. 'unless' Kid can't control his Df so well / Kid is just a kid who only can attract & repel.

i still not mention how dangerous his awakening can be.
 
#37
Of course he won't.

There's Zoro, then we have a few other novas like Kidd/Law, even Yamato is technically there lol.
Yeah technically Luffy is more famous than all of them.. And Kid's bounty is probably the third of the whole alliance... With Luffy's one towering his.. Plus in Udon , they had rivalry.. So he does have a fixation on him.. Because he thinks Luffy might play a bigger role against Kaido

See... this is the expectation that ODA NEVER GAVE.... yet you claim that Oda did that... Kidd being the WB for Luffy is just a huuuuuge stretch from you guys... and Oda NEVER ONCE gave a small panel of Kidd having some resemblence to WB... not once...
In One Piece system... just remember this... when Oda wants to make parallel... he will MAKE SURE you see it clearly.... like for example having someone on the side saying "this reminds of of Old man WB...etc."

Do you actually know which character got the WB parallel from Oda???? Believe it or not... it's Luffy in Fishman island when he was protecting it, and some random nameless guy say "he reminds me of WB"
Or the "sake cup of sons" of SH grand fleet reminding us of the "Sons of WB"

Believe it or not... Oda is just shitpacking every parallel into Luffy... and sometimes with Zoro...

But never once I have seen Oda make Kidd resemble WB.. not once, and it's all coming from fans.. and it's problematic because you are claiming that you will complain about it when oda built it that way and in same breathe you speak that he set up Kidd to be WB for Luffy... when in NO POINT did Oda do that... NOT ONCE...
Hey I bet Marco will be present in this war and will see WB protecting his allies in Luffy doing that... while he completely skips over Kidd.. AGAIN coming from Marco himself, right hand of WB LMAO

You completely misinterpreted what I said, I didn’t mean that Kid’s character would be similar to Whitebeard in anyway, Kid is his own character, there are actually more parallels between him and Shanks.

I was saying in the same way Roger had Whitebeard as a rival, Luffy will have Kid as a rival at the end of One Piece and Kid will be like Whitebeard in that dynamic.
