They want to be the best of the supernovas so of course they want to up the game and take down a bigger name in DF. KIdd seems very much into proving he is the best of the new generation.

Not sure how I feel about the situation.

On one hand, if Shanks loses to these guys, I'm going to be disappointed. Shanks was hyped so much so to have him get killed by a couple of rookies seems off.

At the same time it'd be disappointing if Kidd and them all just got rekt since they are supposed to be the new generation and Luffy's rival for finding one piece.

Either way its going to be bitter sweet.

Kidd had a higher bounty than Luffy on Shabondy. Hawkins had a higher bounty than Law and Apoo was just barely behind Law. Killer was also ahead of Zoro. Even with all the crap that Luffy pulled in Marineford, his bounty only went up to 400 million. Kidd is now at 470 million, with Hawkins at 320 million and Apoo at 350 million. Killer is a solid 200 million.

That's 4 huge bounties. Law was only at 440 when he became a Shichibukai, who are supposed to be hugely powerful. So you're looking at an alliance that has at least one guy considered a bigger threat than a shichibukai as well as three other big powers. Combined, they're a threat to Shanks, and the Kidd alliance destroying the Red-Haired pirates would put Luffy on a collision course with Kidd, who was set up to be the rival in Shabondy.
Playing better than standard requires deviation. This divergence usually results in sub-standard play.

Bounties don't mean much, pretty sure Kidd's was only higher because he had a habit of attacking civilians and in general being among the more cruel of the supernovas.

Luffy's bounty is on his power level alone.
Kidd and Killer are both known to be bad guys, terrorizing civilians and probably killing innocent people.

I'd rate Law's 440 over Kidd's 470.

Remember that bounties don't really have anything to do with fighting strength, they're just a measure of how threatened the World Government feels about a pirate.

Of course, when the WG is making bounties, stronger pirates will naturally feel more threatening, but it's not the only factor involved.

There's a chance of Kidd being stronger than both Luffy and Law.

If Kidd is mastered his Devil Fruit, there's a chance of him repelling people like he do with metallic materials since blood possess iron. This can also make his aim to take down Shanks more realistic.

^ Yeah I agree. Oda probably introduced the idea of Kidd&others vs Shanks crew so everyone wonders who wins between those... and then we go wtf when Bbeard shows up, kills Kidd and takes his power

I'd be disappointed if shanks loses to kidd. The only reason whitebeard lost was because he was already old and dying. It's not time for shanks to lose to some newbie.

Yes very true. As always I want to know the bounty of Kaido or Shanks or Dragon.

Well Kid have to become Yonkou. Pretty sure he will get rid of both Hawkins and Apoo at some point.

For now:

Luffy = Shanks
Law = Whitebeard
Kid = Kaido

Shanks (Luffy) and WB (Law) is good on terms and helps each other when its matter. While Kaidou (Kid) hates everything just like Kid. He even tried to stop Shanks when Shanks was going Marineford.

Easy because luffy is the star of the manga and fated to become the pirate king. I would assume defeating kaido would come towards the end of the manga because after that there's nothing in his way to becoming the pirate king, unless some naruto level secret real bad ass behind the scenes appears in the future. If not kaido, then blackbeard would be the final boss and revenge for ace. Not sure which way oda will go but I see one of those two as being the final boss.

I feel like we would've met this secret badass earlier in the series though, I think that's part of how Oda does his story: shows us sweet characters before we realize who they really are.

No way Kaido is the final Boss. He is going to be the next guy Luffy takes down. After which he still has to deal with Big Mom, Kidd alliance, Blackbeard and Akainu, Gorosei and the tenryuubito. Not to mention the other admirals, shichibuaki he might fight along the way etc.

Kaido is far from being the final boss imho.

I agree with that, yeah. I think that either Blackbeard or the Gorosei will be the final boss, just with how the series has ramped up so far. I wouldn't want the final boss to be anything but someone who has had a huge impact on the series so far. Furthermore, Blackbeard and Luffy butted heads from close to the very beginning - long before Kaido even entered the picture. It just wouldn't feel interesting to have Kaido be the final boss since we don't know a thing about him, but that might just be me. Luffy has incentives to fight the World Government or Blackbeard.

I think Big Mom is the next arc. I mean sanji and them are supposedly captured by her but who knows since we haven't seen them in forever. I agree though that Kaido being the final boss wouldn't have the same impact and personal connection as black beard being the final boss. However, kaido is billed as being the strongest person in the world, so luffy can't defeat him too early otherwise that label loses all its meaning.

i dont think Oda is planning such twists like that though, he writes a more straight forward story and its often pretty clear when someone arrives if there good or bad
