Crocodile was nerfed by plot because he was too strong at the time he was defeated. But when we saw him in MF, his feats more accurately matched his power level.
I feel like Kaido’s treatment in Wano was very similar to Crocodile’s treatment in Alabasta.
I think it’s very likely we see Kaido return and when that inevitably happens, he will likely outshine most other top tiers as his hype suggests he would.
A good place to bring him back would be the final war, to see him face off against Imu or the Gorosei. That way we know exactly how he measures up.
I think it would be particularly hype to see Kaido vs Gorosei, with Kaido playing a similar role in the final war to Marco in Wano, stalling the Gorosei before Zoro, Sanji, etc. face them.
Ultimately, we never got a confirmation of death from Luffy vs Kaido. Given how Kaido’s dream is a glorious death, I think we should actually see it in the manga.
Kaido 1 v 5ing the gorosei would be a great way for Oda to not only hype Kaido, but just overall do Justice to the character as one of the strongest in the series.
