General & Others For what reason exactly would Marco stop fighting King ?

I will say it again -- Its not like zoro only has to fight king; he can defeat king and land an attack/fight against kaido........

King's existence as a character is useless if marco defeats him; he is as of now never hyped to be a character above marco's pay grade or an ace of kaido's crew much higher than Yc1.......marco doesn't gets anything fighting him why oda creted king only for him to get defeated by marco where oda either could have marco fighting kaido/BM or not have him in wano at all........

Yes. so far we know next to nothing about King, considering the amount of screen-time both Queen and Jack have received. So it is highly unlikely that King will get defeated by Marco off-screened, and not have his story explained. The only way to have king's story fully flushed out is to have him fight against a SH. Oda can then spend 1-3 chapters not only explaining king's backstory but also have quality character development on whichever SH king is fighting.

King vs. Zoro makes perfect senses because Zoro is the only SH that is capable of beating him besides luffy. Not only that, but zoro is the only SH that requires quality character development in wano. Wano has been a great chapter for zoro in terms of power-scaling, but we have learned next to nothing about zoro's tie to wano. His backstory needs to be addressed, one way or another, in wano.

Zoro vs. King makes sense not only because they are both 2nd in command, but also because both characters need more development.
 
Honestly, both "Zoro is gonna fight King" or "Zoro is gonna return to fight Kaidou" have their own legit reasons to believe in their cause.

For instances, people said Zoro will not return to Kaidou just because he trust Luffy. But there's other instances in the story itself to support otherwise, like in Thriller Bark



He trusts Luffy, but he knows that they can't leave everything into Luffy's own hands.

Look at Zoro ordering the strongest to weakest:
“ If Luffy screws up and morning comes, then HE, the Cook, and I will melt away”
Luffy > Sanji > Zoro

If oda wanted marco to carry luffy back to kaido then he would have made him heal him aswell. But luffy will be healed by Laws crew so marco is not nessecarily

There are multiple other ways for luffy to get to roof top that makes more sense than marco leaving king in order to carry him.
The only way for Zoro to fight king is if marco is defeated.

If you believe marco will get defeated by king then you believe Zoro have a chance of fighting him.

It wil be intriguing to find out whether or not Luffy and Yamato fight Kaido together, because if that happens I don't see a compelling reason as to why Zoro would take the matter of honor seriously and not join considering how the 'I got this' would lose further value.
Story wise‚ Zoro has the least convincing reasons to want to fight Kaido. His reasons are basically hating Kaido like any other person in Wano. No personal reasons‚ unlike Luffy‚ Yamato and even Kid

Luffy and Zoro both shared the Otama experience and went to save her, saw the poverty and everything.

Both got split up, Luffy bonded further with Otama and people of Okobore town, saw their suffering. It ended with Kaido coming there and destroying it- and though Luffy didn't seem pissed off about it momentarily since his nakama were in trouble, he prob held a grudge over it as he formed bonds.

Zoro bonded with Yasuie and people of Ebisu town as they looked after him and tended to him- it all ended with Yasuie dying in front of Zoro's eyes, which angered him immensely as it was someone he cared for, enough to swear revenge (Luffy didn't even know Yasuie, btw).

In Udon, Luffy met Hyogoro, learned more about Wano's suffering. Got trust of prisoners and swore to save them.

In Ringo, Zoro meets Hiyori, whom he spends a good chunk of chapters with, knowing more about her and Wano's suffering- he formed a bond with her as well, much like Luffy to Shirahoshi, or Luffy to Rebecca, and inherited her father's blade (Oden's will, as swords carry souls of dead).

Zoro, in fact, has more story-driven build-up to fight Kaido than Luffy does as far as development within Wano is concerned. Luffy has a "personal" reason in wanting to become Pirate King, but don't claim Zoro's aren't personal when Kaido caused pain to people he formed a bond with- and indirectly led to their deaths even.

So, yeah, that claim is completely out of ass. Both Zoro and Luffy have equally compelling reasons to personally go after Kaido- and both do.

If you actually want to look into it, and not baselessly shittalk, you can just go through the thread by @Dr_Professor83 which pretty much coherently lists them all- all the build-up, narrative elements and story elements: https://worstgen.alwaysdata.net/forum/threads/zoros-unfinished-business-with-kaido.15295/

Nothing of this really equals being imprisoned and made to work hard like Luffy nor what Yamato went through for all these years.
