‘That’s why Kaido was a great thematic villain to Luffy’: Eiichiro Oda Doesn’t Get Enough Praise for His Best One Piece Theme That Wano Perfectly Executed
One Piece has a plethora of villains to offer, but only a few of them are as memorable as Kaido. Eiichiro Oda not only created a merciless and aggressive antagonist but also someone who was the complete opposite of what Luffy stood for. He has been one of the biggest challenges faced by the protagonist, and for good reason.
It was in his battle against Kaido that Luffy achieved his fifth gear, a legendary moment for all One Piece fans. And if any villain deserved to be the trigger for Luffy’s real powers, it is Kaido.

Kaido was once a young warrior who was handed over to the World Government. The young man realized the darkness residing within the organization pretty soon and escaped, later wanting to combat them.
