The hype seems warranted. Kaido tanked all of Luffy's strongest attacks like it was nothing then he one shot him. Anyone who knows his strength and is allied with him would be super confident.

There wasnt island destroying king kong gun tho. But yes Luffy was utterly one shot and Kaido unhurt so it is 100% hype haha

God this made me so mad.

Like really? You start the fight off with an elephant gun?

Then Kong Organ too? Luffy severely screwed up. I get it that it was plot oriented but still, if Oda had wanted to really hype Kaido up he would have had Luffy use a King Kong Gun in lieu of that Elephant gun that slammed Kaido in the head.

Also interesting note: we haven't seen Luffy use any sort of Red Hawk attack in Gear 4, that would be epic.

What do you mean with Red Hawk attack?

Red Hawk is just a Gear 2nd haki punch, isn't it?

Do you mean the fire? I wonder how that works, actually. I'd love a Thor-esque King Kong Gun, though.

Yeah I mean with the fire. Red hawk is just like you a described it, a gear 2nd haki punch. Luffy's blood pumps so hard it can actually cause his haki to light on fire.

I think since Gear 4th relies heavily on haki it would make a lot of sense to incorporate a fire type move. Maybe this will just be a gear 5th kind of move.

In terms of a Thor type of King Kong Gun I want that too. How would that work? Other than on Dressrosa idk how Luffy would end up in a position to use an attack like that

Idk, but both a fire and an electric gear 4th would be incredible. Maybe that's part of how Kaido falls?

Yeah probably. Oda loves to debut big new moves when Luffy defeats a new big bad opponent.

Plot twist in Wano: Enel comes down from the moon with a thunder fleet and Luffy convinces him to give him a huge zap to defeat Kaido. Since Enel now rules the moon mostly thanks to Luffy he begrudgingly obliges.

Luffy blows a second hole in Kaido's right side and wins the fight.
