The moment his mask comes off his entire crew spits on him
And having captains respect means a lot more than yours crews that's what makes you right hand man
Btw King took charge and was controlling everyone, obvious bickering aside even Queen knows his place. But of course its a meritocracy, Ulti is straight up disrespecting Kaido.
But King has stayed a right hand man in meritocracy for his strength got chosen for his strength
Katakuri came out of Big Moms vagina, that's all he had to do. And he needs to hide his face to prevent people from knowing how pathetic he is.
Daifuku and oven were still respectful towards Kata
Same probably goes for any mature sibling
Which we got to see at the end of wci, they were angry at luffy and wanted to avenge Kata, they didn't think he was pathetic
King didn't really took charge of anything aside from the flying six
And queen absolutely doesn't know or care about his place in the crew, he's an idiot but he has balls, he isn't even fazed by King when others are straight up terrified
King doesnt even attack him despite being allowed to given how chaotic the beast pirates are
And just because king is less respected by the commander next to him in the hierchy unlike Kata, doesn't mean he's pathetic
Saying katakuri is pathetic because of one brat doesn't really make sense
Flampe and the fodders are pathetic characters, their opinions are the last thing that matters
Besides, big mom is a horrible mother, if cracker took as much Ls as Jack did she wouldn't have even kept him, snack got defeated once and got robbed of his status
