Powers & Abilities Kid really was eliminated?

Golden role of op if there isn't a body they are probably alive. Kidd is strong and he can be a good ally eos if oda wants to give him that role. Kidd has really 2 route to return either a ally of luffy or joining cross guild for revenge on shanks. If he joins luffy he buffs them with another ally against the wg. If he joins cg he buffs them to make them more of a real yonko crew.
That’s how you know he surely isn’t dead. Because Oda doesn’t write deaths that way.
I cannot think of a single instance where a character is arbitrarily brutally murdered and humiliated for the sake of hyping up a stronger character.
The closest I can think of to this is Saturn’s death. But that actually serves to progress the plot.
Kid dying would be meaningless. Why should Kid die, after being built up as a major pirate of the worst gen and being credited for defeating a yonko, when characters like Moria who are far weaker come back after being destroyed numerous times?
Are y’all reading two piece? Kid is one of Luffy’s strongest allies.

idk which fandom you belong to or how much you value portrayal.
Kidd has been portrayed as a legitimate rival to Luffy multiple times.
His feats in Wano were also not bad and his bounty reflects that.
We know that he will ultimately lose.
But hey, so will everyone else.
You are probably right.
His cockiness is what makes him a prime target for slander.

I don't think the prediction that he'll literally come back is in any contention. Many other characters will be making an appearance in the final saga in some capacity after all. Probably even BM and Kaido who are "dead".
The question is, will he be relevant, much less pivotal, to the plot in the same way he was in Wano? I think that's a toss-up.
Yes, he has had build-up that requires a satisfying arc and conclusion to his story to justify his presence in the first place.
However, if you observe the general patterns in the story, you'd long have realized Oda has been over-crowding it with too much shit in general. And much of it doesn't lead anywhere or conclude in a satisfying manner. How many times has he over-indulged on things he finds interesting in the moment, then quietly ignores indefinitely? The Straw Hats are the pillars of this story, and Oda has demonstrated that even they are not immune to this irresponsible behaviour.
If Kid makes a token appearance with no narrative substance (or no appearance at all), can we really say he'd be an anomaly? Or just another one of Oda's tossed-aside playthings that he couldn't conclude in a satisfying manner?
