Shortly after awakening Gear 5, Luffy finally defeated Kaido Wano saga , making it one of the most iconic moments in One Piece . However, was this victory really an overcoming by Chapéu Palha or luck of the enemy being weakened?
Many fans argue that Luffy's victory was more a matter of the enemy's exhaustion than a clear indication of his superiority. So let's explore what the outcome of the fight would have been like if Kaido wasn't so worn out.
One Piece – Luffy Gear 5 defeated Kaido just because he was weakened
Check it out:
One of the main points to consider is the series of battles that Kaidou faced before the final confrontation with Luffy. Eventually, Kaidou had to face the Red Scabbards , Eustass Kid , Killer , Trafalgar Law , Roronoa Zoro , and Yamato . Although Kaidou withstood the attacks, the damage accumulated wear and exhaustion. However, Luffy was the only one capable of inflicting serious and lasting damage on the captain of the Beast Pirates.
Straw Hat also received damage in the fight, but Kaidou's wounds were greater as he fought constantly. Still, the accumulated damage didn't stop Kaido from fighting at full strength. He confronted Luffy's Bajrang directly and nearly incinerated him in the collision of attacks. However, it's hard to believe that fatigue didn't affect the result as well.
Luffy has undoubtedly reached a higher level with advanced King's Haki and Gear 5, but the help of his allies played to his advantage. Kaido's fighting experience and Haki are far above Luffy's, so if he wasn't so tired, the outcome of the battle might have been different.
Synopsis:
The story revolves around Monkey D. Luffy, a young man who gained a body made of rubber after eating the magical fruit Gomu Gomu no Mi (the Rubber Fruit). Since he was inspired by his childhood idol, the powerful pirate Shanks the Red, Luffy decided to become a pirate and sail on a journey across the sea to find the mythical treasure, the One Piece, and proclaim himself the Pirate King.
