Speculations Isolation of Wano, samurai pride and Understanding What Kaido represent as a character is the key to understand Luffy and Zoro's role in this arc

#1
There are 2 legend regarding kaido.
1. one vs one always bet on kaido
2. kaido is unkillable.


1.luffy fought for 30 minutes against kaido 1 vs 1 and lost. he said he will take care of kaido but could not do it. luffy's redemption will be he WILL beat kaido 1 vs 1 and destroying the first legend of kaido. very soon momo and yamato will check out of the fight and it will become luffy vs kaido.
2. zoro has said he has come to cut kaido to pieces. he tried in chapter 1010 with ashura. he couldn't do it and was disappointed in himself. his redemption will be he will kill the unkillable.


Wano's current fate is due to 2 factor.
1. their isolationist policy. wano is based on edo period of japan when the county shut itself from outside world. after civil war the new meiji era happened and this time they opened the county to modernize it.
if wano were not so disconnected from the rest of the world, kaido would not be able to win it so easily. its thematic that an outsider pirate luffy will defeat kaido to mark the new era for wano just like japan. a pirate caused the destruction and another pirate will save it.

2. kaido was able to rule wano for 20 years because there were no strong samurai like oden/ ryuma to protect it. it was the "SAMURAI's FAILURE". kaido defeated every scabbards. most probably he defeated shimotsuki ushimaru aka zoro's dad. so its very very very important that a samurai who will save the country. this is the exact reason why suddenly oda made zoro wano's son. he could have been just a strawhat pirate but it was important narratively to alienate zoro from his pirate identity in this arc. he can't be just another pirate.



so yes luffy will beat kaido 1 vs 1. conqueror haki has been super important this arc. luffy will prove to kaido that he is the superiror conqueror. kaido will realize he can't take over the world. his ambition gets broken. so after been defeated he will rise up just like the the previous 18 times but this time as a dragon he will try to take down the whole wano down with him. to have an iconic suicide( kaido admires samurai way even though he hate them. he will try to follow their code of seppuku, wano started with seppuku) which everyone will remember and zoro will kill him to protect his fatherland and rob kaido of his desired iconic suicide.

"A few dozen minutes earlier"

1 dozen = 12 minutes and it said a few so it could be 2 or 3 dozen minutes which is around 24 - 36 minutes.:kayneshrug::smart:
No dude. This is only 12min.

Chopper Rumble Ball lasts 30min. He went Monster Point before Luffy and Kaido 1v1 and after Luffy lost Chopper still had 10 min of transformation against Queen.
