Oden having abnormal physical stats , VoAT + all 3 haki (possibly has advanced CoA), Having OP swords (tamed Enma between 15-18 y.o). His potential was so huge...
Oda just made this guy a natural freak of nature similar to BM/Kaido (bigger monsters)
The man was at it peak (39 y.o) when he fought kaido, both were admiral level I bet, with Kaido being Upper and Oden just being average.
Oden at this point was/is not below Admirals (Except FA and Strongest marine ), he is above any VC/YC/warlord (except Rayleigh, Yonko and PK). The other characters who have VoAT + All 3 haki are all PK material.
I firmly believe he was Rayleigh opponent when WB fought Roger...
this explains why wb didn't lose or get caught by Navy after Rox Era (38 years ago) coz he had a powerful conqueror under him.
Xebec had WB and BM (and rookie Kaido)/
Roger had Rayleigh (and rookie shanks)
/ WB had Oden (then Ace)/
BM has Katakuri/
Kong had Sengoku & Garp (who might be CoC user too),...
... this is why WB left 2nd commander spot empty because he never had another PK material underlying since Oden! That's why he was so eager to make Ace PK coz he saw Ace will surpass Oden and even Roger .
* if Oden was still alive I'll say he will be Yonko level!!
*Did Shanks end up surpassing Oden/prime Rayleigh? YES since Shanks grew to stand in same level as WB/Kaido/BM.
Oden timeline:
41 y. ago : The incidents
Between 38~29/8 y. ago : he ended up being recruited by WB and served as his Best fighter
(*Marco (45 y.o) /Jozu(40s)/Vista (47 y.o)...started serving WB around 28-25 years till a year ago; they were rookies : teens when they joined WB back then, currently they are 40s and still high tier level).
29/8 y. ago : he left and had Momo
27/6 y. ago : he had Hiyori
25 y.ago : Roger poached him
24 y.ago : last PK voyage , crew disbands
He returns to Wano
20 y.ago : Fights Kaido and dies
Now WE KNOW LUFFY HAS SIMILAR STATS AND RESSEMBLANCE TO ODEN, EVERYONE NOW HAVE HOPE AND LEADER IN LUFFY AND WILL TAKE DOWN KAIDO. Oden/ Rayleigh are Luffy benchmark this arc like How Kata was in WCi :::
Alabasta : Surpassing Crocodile
Gained *30 millions bounty*
Ennies Lobby : Surpassing His limits & Lucci by making Gears and beating Blueno and Lucci.
*Below Vets, adding haki made g2 and g3 Veteran tier.
*300 millions Bounty*
2 years Training: Making Gear 4 and becoming solid High tier with Proof : beating Doffy at DR and Cracker at Seducing Forest
*500 millions bounty*
*WCI : Surpassing Katakuri (heir to BMP captaincy, CoC/FS user, current strongest Commander)

* will get around 3 B bounty*
*Elbaf : surpassing Shanks!
We know after WCi, shanks already said their meeting has gotten closer (luffy was 1/3 as strong as him post WCI)
By gaining adCoC or awakening, luffy will surpass Shanks and his crew will be as strong as Shanks crew.
He will fight BM with help or solo Fuji at elbaf.
*around 4 B bounty*
*Paradise (Beehive) Island : Surpassing Prime Garp! Becoming strong as upper Yonko as BM/Kaido By beating Teach ( perhaps with Coby help ) ... Luffy gets PU or awakens.

. I don't know why everyone keeps passing that as a fact. What we actually know is some of the scabbards were helping Oden to fight Kaido himself (not the beast pirates). Ashura pretty much confirmed he fought with Kaido alongside Oden.
