Future Events Can Kaido and BM deaths surpass the impact of Ace and WB deaths in the story?

It isn't happening, but if it did it would only be emotional for zorotards who would cry that Zoro didn't kill Kaido and that the scabbards did it.
I'd much rather see Orochi's death as he is actually 100% evil, wheras Kaido is just kind of a pragmatist with an evil streak. But Oda prefers not to kill villains anyway.

Ace's death is the most emotional thing in the entire manga though, and it's ripples were still felt strongly in this arc with both Tama and Yamato.
Outside of tragedies that effect Luffy or Strawhats directly, it is hard to feel empathy for fodder characters created in 1 chapter to be exploited emotionally the next chapter.
Do I care that Killer was tortured and forcefed a SMILE, not really
Do I care that Wano citizens killed their children to save them from starvation, a little bit
Do I care that Yasuie was executed, not really
Do I care that Oden was boiled alive, a little bit.
All of them are tragedies, none of them directly effect Luffy or his crew.
Do I care that Tama would have been waiting like a dog who lost his master, until she died of starvation, for Ace who died without her knowing due to Wano's closed border, yeah I do.
Do I care that Ace and Yamato shared a promise likewise, and that she was stuck trapped by her father until Luffy came to save her, yes I do.
Do I care that Luffy's courage drove Momo to the conviction to sacrifice 20 years of his youth to save his country? yeah I do
Expecting Luffy to take major deaths like that in front of his face spit in the face of his 2 years training which was specifically to avoid that.

There are atleast 5 things as sad as Ace's death but all flashback except...
Bon clays two sacrifices.
But Robin's backstory is just as sad
Bellemere is just as sad
Hililuk is epic but really sad
Calagra was sad
And brooks backstop is more likely to make me sniffle than Aces
Luffy should definitely make good on ace's promises to Tama and Yamato.

For us the readers the WB have more impact, he as a character was much better than BM and Kaido, and he wasnt a villains, but in the verse think the death of both Emperors in the moment of chaos the world is already can equal WB death, dont know if can have more impact as his death was the event that marked the change of a age and set in motion all the events we are seen since post-TS.
