Kaido has to die and Zoro is the best candidate. There’s a reason Oda keeps using panels to explore Zoro instead of phasing him out of the arc like Sanji.
Ryuma plot ended when Zoro cut King in a dragon-slaying fashion and the Oden plot too ended with the same feat and Zoro becoming the legitimate owner of Enma and subsequently becoming the KoH.
Eh, I don't really buy it. I mean, I'm cool if ZKK doesn't happen, but I don't consider those as indicators that it won't.
It honestly makes no sense for a plot-point with lots of build-up and significance to end with Zoro killing a fake magma dragon that no one saw. Otherwise these lines would hold no weight:
How can people call Zoro the "second Ryuma" if they haven't seen him do anything noteworthy?
This is from OP Magazine 5. It straight up says "the possibility might arise that a new legend of slaying an Eastern Dragon might be born."
As for the Oden point, Zoro still doesn't have full mastery over Enma as far as we know. He also hasn't forged Enma black yet, which is something that has been hinted to happen and hold relevance in Wano.
It's not over in the manga, Oda cut the flashback and we still don't know what happened after they broke out of prison.
Also Oda said he isn't Zoro's father but they can still be related.
Zoro haters are having gallons of copium right now as deep down they know ZKK is more alive than ever.
If Zoro role already ended in this arc, Oda has no need to draw grim reaper and left it as a cliffhanger
Zoro still has black-blade and Ryuma plot line to be resolved. We will see Wano people acknowledge Zoro as new Ryuma. The only valid opponent now is Kaido. It'd be stupid to think that Zoro will get acknowledged by defeating Orochi
Kaido will also acknowledge Zoro as a strong samurai similar to Oden, and will be glad that he get killed by Zoro. This will atone for his sin on his cheating fight with Oden
I wasn’t with the Zkk theory at first because you know this is the Luffy show, but then I don’t think oda is giving Zoro all these plot points for no reason… we have so many unresolved plot points surrounding zoros character… you have to be a realll hater to actually want zoro to be done this early. I for one want to see Zoro flourish even more.
