My opinion on this has been consistent for almost 2 years. I rarely look at any serious power level discussions here.
With all due respect, I could give 2 shits about what 99% of the users here think about my opinions on the story. Calling my takes "wanking" or "dick riding" is their prerogative. I'm not bothered by their hate. Cause I've seen what they like.
Either way, I wouldn't have accept Luffy not beating Kaido last year, last month, 2 years ago, 5 years ago, doesn't matter. Luffy will beat Kaido.
Also completely denying the possibility of Zoro fighting against Kaido is ignorant at anytime.
I don't read the series for one character, I know I'm in the minority here. Zoro is a 🐐 and one of my fav characters of any manga.
But if he kills Kaido I will genuinely question if hell froze over.
