Did I miss something? Moriah maybe hates Kaido but he, not one of Luffy friends so I do not see this too sit and talk how to take Kaido down in a piece. Quote:

Enemies can form an alliance when they have a common goal. We've seen this in Impel Down with Crocodile teaming up with Luffy to escape.

Wow... Kaido really showed what it means to be an Emperor. Big Mom at least has a pseudo-weakness, and I keep wondering how the hell Shanks ultimately qualifies as an Emperor (most likely answer from Oda: I haven't gotten that far yet!)
Also, I think one of the big things we keep forgetting is that in the beginning, it took both the Admirals AND the Shichibukai to BALANCE the Emperors. We never got an accurate power measurement because for the most part, the Yonkou kinda did their own thing and the WG (and Marines by extension) never bothered with them. Plus, it's currently still debatable if Luffy is even strong enough to be at Admiral level... if not, then forget about Yonkou level.

I guess we all remember the clash between Luffy & Big Mom where Big Mom effortlessly beat Luffy in Gear 4 state which clearly showed the gap between an yonko & a supernova and Kaido was simply repeating the same feat if not better. Quote:
Hmm I know that Moria isn’t exactly everyone’s favorite, but it’s also not like a former enemy won’t make his comeback, either. We already have several of Luffy’s former foes being reactivated like Crocodile, Lucci and Bellamy etc., why not give Moria another chance to be back in business considering his history with Kaido? |

Luffy's been able to dodge all sorts of attacks without using observation haki throughout the manga. Perhaps he couldn't dodge this one simply because it was too fast for him and nothing more. Besides you're making an assumption that Kaidou doesn't have observation haki himself. If he does it might be on a level higher than Katakuri. Or perhaps he doesn't need it and therefore wouldn't have mattered either way. Quote:

About Crocodile at this time Ivankov was treated him to work with them here Moriah can betray Luffy after the victory on Kaido. |

This is stupid. What was the fucking point of the timeskip if Luffy is going to get pwned by everyone important anyway? Make it a 30 year timeskip then, and go back when he can actually participate in the story without deus ex machina.

-------- When Kaido reverted to his human form, he didn't dodge, block, nor protect himself with armament haki against Luffy's barage of attacks. It was as though he was testing to see if Luffy can give him a challenge. Much to his disappointment, he sighs and quickly ends the fight in one hit with one arm in his base form. Oda couldn't make the disparity in power between Kaido and Luffy any more clear.

Which now means we get probably a whole year (or more realistically, close to 2~3) real time of the Wano arc, and Oda keeps the publishers happy.

About Moria, I'm also pretty sure he will come back in this arc. There really isn't a better opportunity to reintroduce him, and Luffy could definitely use his help. He needs all the help he can get, really.

We really have to consider the time. We are well into the second half of this series. If we really expect Luffy to become the pirate king until this series ends, he has to be able to defeat an enemy like Kaido by now. We also have to consider, that there is still a big war, united pirates vs. Celestial Dragons/WG, pending. If the author keeps his pace of letting Luffy always loose two times, before he defeats the big boss, there won't be enough time. |

do you think something like going super saiyan can happen in the one piece world?
for example, kaido picks up a badly injured tama and killing her in front of luffy's eyes; therefore causing him to snap and go "super saiyan"? or is this too "cliche" for oda?

Not going to happen in One Piece at this point Maybe at a later stage of the Manga but not now. Something like this already happened in the battle of Luffy vs Lucci so... Last edited by TURI123456; 2018-11-05 at 13:04. |

My guess, there are two possible ways for Luffy to grow stronger: Awakening his devil fruit power, and improving his armament haki. His observation haki is already pretty good (when he's calm enough to use it properly), but his armament haki isn't strong enough when it comes to top shelf opponents. He has a bounty of 1.5 billion berries, and is probably a step or two below the Emperors, not several steps.

Hmm... If Kaido become allies with Luffy at the end, that can be fantastic. Mihawk states that Luffy's abilities is considerably dangerous and Law states that Straw Hats crew can overcome even the impossible odds. Enies Lobby, Dressrosa, you name it and i think Oda will have an idea to make that streak continues again.
