It is well known that Kaido is the world’s ‘Strongest Creature’, the Governor-General of the Beasts Pirates, and one of the Four Emperors who rule over the new world. Kaido is also the father of the popular One Piece character Yamato. He is among the many antagonists of One Piece that debuted in episode number 739. The King of Beasts Kaidou is the main antagonist of the ongoing Wano Country Arc. This article will cover some of the very interesting and unknown facts about Kaidou
Kaidou was an apprentice of the legendary Rocks Pirates. 38 years ago during the God Valley Incident Kaidou ate the mythical fruit, the Uo Uo no Mi Model: Seiryu which was given to him by Linlin. Currently, Kaidou is in an alliance with one of his former Rocks crewmates and Big Mom’s fellow emperor. Let’s have a look at some interesting facts about Kaidou that most people don’t know about.
1. Kaidou’s design has been changed multiple times
Almost in every manga, the villains due to appear shortly are often hinted at a small sneak-peak, as the show progresses their design and appearance change a lot. Kaidou was hinted at soon after the Enies Lobby Arc and has been shown many times since then. The main thing to focus on is that the final version of Kaidou which we are seeing in the Wano Country Arc is very different from the ones shown before.
This change in Kaidou’s appearance can be because Oda kept on having different ideas regarding Kaidou’s look and as a result, his appearance and design kept evolving. Another reason for his changing forms could be his immortality or his Dragon Zoan which can reincarnate him.

2. Kaidou is addicted to drinking
The Emperor of the New World is almost always seen with a sake bottle in his hand, and if he’s not, everyone in the vicinity should watch out. It’s something even fans missed at first, but Kaido always seems drunk, and it is not an exaggeration. He is knocked out of his drunken state by Luffy the very first time he faces him in Gear Four. It enrages him so much that he destroys Luffy with a single hit.
Whenever Kaidou is sad, he’ll need booze, to celebrate his happiness he’ll need booze, and he even remains drunk throughout his day. He drinks so much that in a poll on Amino, almost 50% of the fans said that he’s the character in One Piece who can drink the most. Well, you can’t be Jack Sparrow unless you’re a pirate drunk throughout the day.

3. Drinking Sake makes Kaidou stronger
In chapter 1037 Kaidou unveiled his ‘Shuron Hakke’. Like Rock Lee’s drunk mode, Kaidou becomes more and more powerful after drinking. The more drunk Kaidou gets, the more unpredictable his movements get. Because of being drunk, he can swiftly transform too.
4. Shuron Hakke has different modes
Kaidou’s different moods, while he is drunk, have also been assimilated into the Shuron Hakke: “Laughing Drunk”, “Depressed Drunk”, “Crying Drunk”, and “Angry Drunk,” respectively.
5. Kaidou can use future sight
The latest chapter of One-piece (1042) named ‘The victor needs no epithet’ gives a major revelation about Kaidou. He can use future sight. Luffy keeps on punching Kaidou, who is in a drunken state. At that moment Kaidou reveals that the Observation Haki allows him to see into the future.
6. Kaidou can shapeshift constantly
Another thing to revealed in the latest chapter was that Kaidou can change into his dragon form extremely fast. He does this while dodging Luffy’s attacks. Later on, we see Kaidou transitioning between his Zoan forms at a never seen before speed.
7. Kaidou’s endurance is unrivaled
Kaidou has been fighting continuously since the raid on Onigashima began. He withstood the attacks of Red Scabbards, his daughter Yamato, the Supernovas. There hasn’t been a single scratch on Kaidou even after all this.
On top of it, in the latest chapter, he took a lot of punches from Luffy’s Gear Fourth. Moreover, he even got shot by the Kong Gun in his face. Yet Kaidou is standing and toying around with his opponents without hesitation.
8. Kaidou is very tall
Kaidou’s body is so big that it makes others look dwarf in front of him. He stands at a staggering height of 710cm.
9. Kaidou has a special relationship with the King
Kaidou and king have known each other for 3 decades. Their union could be considered as the beginning of the crew. Ever since King has believed in Kaidou and remained loyal to him.

10. Kaidou once fought Gecko Moria
Over the years Oda has shown us how far he has been thinking regarding One Piece and especially the development of various characters. The connection between One Piece’s characters is something that the fans admire the most. In the Thriller Bark Arc, Moria keeps on discussing that he needs the strongest army and the strongest soldiers by his side. That is because as later revealed in this arc Moria once locked horns with Kaidou in an epic battle and lost.
As things have turned out, Moria wants a powerful army to exact his revenge on Kaidou for killing his crew, Gecko Pirates 22 years back. As a result, Kaidou is the main cause for Moria’s insanity and dead from inside kind of attitude.

11. Kaidou has 3rd highest bounty of all time
Every One Piece fan knows that bounties are revealed throughout the show. The bounty is either revealed by a character or a bounty poster is shown. Kaidou’s bounty is 4,611,100,000, the highest among the Yonko. With both Gold Roger and Whitebread dead, Kaidou currently has the highest active bounty in One Piece.

12. Kaidou is not a human
Known for his invulnerability, size, and ability to turn into a dragon, Kaido is invincible. He has horns reminiscent of the horns of Oars and Oars Jr. He is often referred to as a “thing” rather than a human. There has not been any confirmation yet, but one thing we know is that he’s not an ordinary being. Perhaps he’s a Dragon that can turn into a human, Vegapunk’s failed experiment, or even someone like Oars, who pulls continents.
13. He enjoys committing suicide
Everyone knows so far that Kaidou is kind of invincible. He doesn’t take any damage whenever fighting an enemy. Due to this, killing himself appears to have become one of his favorite hobbies.
14. Even the King of Beasts has been defeated
Although Kaidou is one of the most powerful pirates ever, he has been captured many times by his enemies. The Marines have captured him 18 times, both Yonko and his rivals. Apart from this, he has also tasted defeat 7 times on the battlefield.
On top of all this, he has faced severe torture at the hands of his enemy. His enemies have also tried to execute him 40 times, all of that for no good.
15. Kaidou is capable of influencing the weather
Since the time we saw Kaidou appear in his dragon form for the first time at Kuri, it has been widely believed that he can control the weather. As of now, it is not confirmed yet but we think that it is due to his mythical Zoan powers. Even Nami noticed a change in the weather with Kaidou’s arrival.
While Kaidou’s ally Big Mom takes the help of Zeus and Prometheus to bring about a change in weather.
Kaidou’s power and abilities (Haki)
Kaidou is considered to be an extremely powerful Yonko. It has been reported that he has survived situations where he would have been killed or executed countless times. His body is strong enough to shatter any spears or sword and only an advanced form of Busoshoku Haki can inflict damage on him. Kaidou’s main weapon is a giant Kanabo mace, Hassaika, his signature move being “Raimei Hakke”. He also wields a gun.

Kaidou is also an extremely proficient user of Observation Haki (Kenbunshoku Haki), Armament Haki (Busoshoku Haki), as well as the rarest of all Conquerors Haki (Haoshoku Haki). He has unlocked his Busoshoku and Haoshoku Haki to the fullest. This allows him to infuse his Haoshoku Haki into his body and Hassaikai, granting either an immense boost or generating streams of dark lightning. His skill of Kenbunshoku Haki is also very well developed, although not to the extent of Katakuri.
