He ain't wrong tho man.
We are still nowhere. Another "Climax is here!" bait which we've been getting for over a year now combined with another chapter ending with BIG IMPRESSIVE PUNCH!
I'm telling you Kaido eats this, lays down for few seconds and stands up complimenting Luffy's strength but he wants to show him something which will be awakening and the battle will go on and on and on and on.
It looks like Oda is cornered and has no idea how to finish this bout like for real.
I do think this one feels different tho
Because this time Luffy might hit Onigashima, crack it and make Momo save it / hold it.
Luffy usually defeats Villains while also destroying something and during an important moment.
The combined moment of the end of the festival + Luffy might be hitting Onigashima besides Kaido, gives it that "final moment" feel Oda usually does in his arcs.
Like defeating Arlong and destroying Arlong Park at the same time.
Or defeating Doflamingo and destroying the Plateu.
Or defeating Crocodile and Vivi stopping the war / rain coming back.
This feels like a possible ending.
