The amount of salt on this thread is gonna be incredible when he is finally revealed!
My mind thinks @Charlotte Horchata has the right of it here. It would be a most interesting dynmaic for Oda to explore and opens up Kaidou to further character development down the line. At the very least, it breaks up the monotony of him being written as a suicidal alcoholic jonesing for a beatdown by the MC and nothing more.
But, my heart wants to believe @Paperchampion23 might also be on the right track as well. Call it the 'fanboy' in me. But I never really felt that Kaidou's story begins and ends with just Wano anyway. There are hints with PH, Vegapunk and maybe the WG itself - if Oda wants to go there.
Also despite what Luffy states, I still don't see Luffy ever giving Big Mom any sort of beat down as severe as he will deal to Kaidou. In other words, Oda will never have his MC beat up an Old Granny. Kaidou? that's fine. He can take the beating because he's male and because he's Kaidou Lmao
But not BM. Think of how it would look like - Mutliple chapters of Luffy raining holy hell on a retarded old woman. Yeah not happening.
So if he won't be defeating BM between now and vs Kaidou later, who does he fight? The only ones left are King, Queen and Jack. The last two are out of the question. And King doesn't seem to fit either. If the guy uses a sword he's not Luffy's opponent. Luffy has problems dealing with villains using pointy cutty things. See: Kata with trident and Kata without.
I wonder if it will reflect or have some bearing on how the Ace/Roger/Whitebeard father-son issue was resolved. Back then Ace rejected who he was by rejecting his father and finding himself by embracing Whitebeard. There could be some call-back to that with Kaidou's kid as well.

Remember how half the CP9 was only revealed during the actual battle at Enies Lobby? That's how Kaido and his crew will become more interesting, at Onigashima. Nearly all of the samurai related plotlines are done (except Orochi, Tengu, Kanjuro and a few other things) and now we can focus on the main villain.
The festival, initial battles and the war will characterize the villains.

Kaido is scared that his son will kill him (which even if it doesn't bother him from the perspective of dying, certainly bothers him from the perspective of being weaker and pushed around), that's why he drinks, but he's feeling safer when Big Mom is around, that's why he's asking for him to come out. (Not really.)

I don't know I just have the feeling that he will be depicted as a weak otaku looking individual.
I don't know way but the fact that he was not present there makes me think he will be depicted as an introvert.
As last thing I don't know it's for sure not true but it would be a bit of a surpries if he as kaido and toki's son as I said on my profile, but probably I'm very wrong about this
