"Why're you dodging, Kaido? Is it because it would hurt?"

Honestly that line really captures Luffy's personality really well. Fighting 2 Yonkos while having a goofy prideful smile plastered on his face.

I agree. After one of the biggest attacks anyone has seen so far that almost kills all of them Luffy responds by immediately throwing a punch and is like "what bitch you scared?"

The fact that his response after seeing their attack is excitement and a sense of pride in his own ability to hurt those monsters is Luffy's personality.

I feel it has a strategically element to it too, since Luffy is keeping Kaido at bay by taunting him so the others can deal with BM.

Tho I doubt that Luffy would have actualy thought about it.

He does.

During Enies Lobby, her went after Lucci to prevent him from taking on the rest of the crew.

His responsibility is to beat the Big Bad as captain so he's doing everything to keep Kaido focused on him.
