I just do not understand it ...?

Shanks even with his hype doesn't have enough hype to put him over kaido Cuz they generally have same hype both being yanko's .....
So hype is not it

Portrayal we haven't seen enough from any of them to judge that
So that's not it either


Lastly the whole whitebeard thing and shanks stopping kaido from doing it...? Ok let's get this straight kaido wanted to end whitebeard ... This has nothing to do with shanks. The yanko by portrayal r pretty much on equal playing field in terms of hype...
Kaido goal was to end whitebeard with all 4 of them having near equal strength how would kaido have defeated shanks and then went on to defeat WB ? For one tht battle would've been long as shit seeing as 2 admirals took 10 days and it takes all 3 admirals and warlords to deal with one yanko
So sure shanks talked to kaido and kaido realized I cannot fight shanks and then fight WB ... For one by portrayal he couldn't just defeat one and then another ... And 2 he didn't have enough time to take them both out (not saying he can) (and by portrayal a battle between 2 yanko should b longer then 10 days). My point is kaido seen it wasn't worth it and it couldn't have happened ... Kaido being smart realized this fight would b for no reason and he wouldn't get what he wanted .. So he just left .
Shanks further proves this coming to battle field unharmed there for no fowl play happened

So anyone with a brain (no shade to shanks fans but shade to the **** riders ) can see this so why Tf do ppl put shanks > kaido ????? (Not saying its not possibility but u can't judge this yet ..)
So can anyone answer this question with a logical explanation ?

1. Kaido and Big Mom are set up as enemies in the new arc/saga, that alone likely say that they are probably weaker than Shanks, who still will not show his full power. WB on the other hand was know as "Strongest Man in the World", he was defeated earlier in the series, but he was old geezer so that's nothing weird.

2. Shanks is Luffy's "mentor", or whatever to call it. Defeating Kaido would be next step being closer to Shanks + being "mentor" of main character is very important thing.

3. When Shanks arrived at MF, he was without a scratch, these two likely didn't fought, but just the case that Kaido didn't destroy Shanks and come to MF, to me say who is superior.

4. WB was known as "Strongest Man in the World", Shanks clashed pretty good with him. Kaido is known as "Strongest Creature in the World", since he has "Creature" and not "Man", it mean that he is inferior to WB, and Shanks clashed pretty good with him.

Because BB refused to fight Shanks, despite claiming he could fùck shit up at Marineford. Akainu's magma punch was stopped by Shanks, and refused to fight him for the sake of Luffy. He is the only person to have been praised by Sengoku, bar WB. He fought on par with Mihawk without a DF, which is another testament of insane haki strength and swordsmanship (further suggested by having enough strength to not be overpowered by WB). He has pirate Hing's Haki that can knock out 100,000 people, far superior to Luffy's.

I m calling it...Shanks gave Kaido a DF/Gold/Money and told him not to attack MF

I belive Kaido is stronger than Shanks is because Kaido makes DD shit himself! DD is fricking beast who clashed with an Admiral and yet he is scared of Kaido

So DD being scared of Kaido, who can barely keep up with Fujitora, is somehow equal to someone who clashed with Akainu and WB? Makes no sense.

Doflamingo said he would rather face an Admiral than face Kaido...this further implies Kaido's power because Doflamingo knows that he is weaker than an Admiral but still chooses to face them than Kaido

That don't prove that Kaido is stronger than Shanks, it just prove that Kaido is stronger than Admiral..

Because it's not Roger who's Luffy's idiol, it's Shanks

That alone gives Shanks the spot in the top 4 most hyped character in OP to date, Dragon and Roger and Garp and finally Shanks

Even the 2 that are potential eos villains don't have that kind of hype because they are partly growing and being developed alongside Luffy (BB and partially Akainu)

Because he isn't scared of WB when he went to talk to him.
He clashed with mihawk and earned his friendship/rivalry(the most hyped character of one piece)
Sengoku agreed to handover the burial of WB & ace just because shanks asked him and he was even ready to take the blame himself
he was a member of roger pirates
he inspired luffy to become pirate
he is younko & after losing an arm it didn't reduce the hype he got

Kaido is stronger. The first main antagonist reason to say he isn't isn't a good one considering that Shanks will be killed off-panel by Blackbeard. The only yonkou Luffy will likely fight are Kaido and Blackbeard, Kaido in group to become stronger and Blackbeard in solo. Even Big Mom will likely become an ally if anything

Minato was Naruto's idol, but Hashirama was stronger than him

Roger = Hashirama, Minato = Shanks, A = Kaido...

Hashirama > Minato > A
Roger > Shanks > Kaido

And how do you know Kaido is A?

You can't draw parallel between Roger and Kaido, but you can between Hashirama and Roger. If anything Kaido can't be Hashirama, on the other hand both Kaido and Shanks share position (Yonko, just like Minato and A were kages).

Shanks arrived at MF, after he confirmed Kaido, if Kaido is stronger, why he didn't just kill Shanks and his crew and go to MF. It was also mentioned that Kaido has 500 members in his crew (at least), on the other hand RHP don't seems to be that big, but still Kaido didn't 'destroy' Shanks and head to the MF after that.

Because like opening poster said, even if he won, he would have probably been in too much a pitful condition to step forward in his goal in eliminating Whitebeard. They are too close in strength enough for him not to decide to attack 2 yonkou crews one after the other. It would have been stupid for him to continue the fight. Anyone afterward could have taken advantage of the situation to kill him. Besides, how do you know Shanks has a small crew? It's not like we know the entirety of Shanks' army or allies

Kaido is the strongest creature in the world. Therefore, Kaido>Shanks.
