Kitetsu wank is over the top tho
Kitetsu’s are wasted potential. Oda is sometimes an absolute idiot. Creating a new sword like Enma was unnecessary. Kitetsu II should’ve been Oden‘s second sword. The Oni Slayer Sword.
Here was my theory:
800 years ago, the Kozuki Clan was a clan full of master craftsman and the Shimotsuki Clan was a clan full of master swordsman. The Kozuki ruled over Wano and the Shimotsuki Clan were the leaders of the military force and were the protectors of the Kozuki. The Shimotsuki Clan had two bothers. One was a noble and strict Samurai -> the ancestor of Yasuie and the other was a ruthless and rebellious Ronin -> ancestor of Ryuma and Zoro. Many Samurai followed his life style and they created a place without any nobles and rules -> Kuri. They were known as the demons of Wano.
At some time a war between the Oni’s from Onigashima and the samurai of Wano happened. Kitetsu, a ronin and craftsman from Kuri created Kitetsu I and gave it to Zoro’s ancestor. He slayed a lot of Oni’s during this war and the Kitetsu was drained in their blood and it became a cursed sword because their souls were sealed inside. Some Oni’s fled -> Kaido’s ancestors and some stayed in Wano -> Black Maria’s ancestors.
The lost souls of the fallen Oni’s curse every wielder, they only obey someone with a strong demonic aura like Zoro. The manifestation of Zoro’s aura is Ashura. Zoro killing Kaido would’ve been way cooler

One of his ancestors could’ve been the Oni slayer Musashi and the other one could’ve been Ryuma the Dragon Slayer. Ruthless thugs with no destiny shit, ronin who train day and night and manifest their will into their swords. They even changed their family name into Roronoa because they got disinherited by the Shimotsuki
