“ War. I have never questioned my captain’s want for war. A battle of battles, an ending of lives, a true passage of the strong. The war to end all wars, that was our goal. To rise above it all, to see it all burn, and to see who survived--the strongest, the smartest, the most resourceful. Then, only then, might the world actually be worth it again. ”

#ic ;; kasai no kingu #thinks about how like..........#the big 'goal' of the beast pirates--of kaido--was the war to end all wars #it was a battle. it was to destroy it all and see who survived #he was literally creating an army with the beast pirates.....#then came the obvious addition of #kaido wanted to be pirate king.#in the end. i think it was a lot of kaido's own wish to die.#he would either die. or become king of it all. beyond just pirates. of everything.#but we see clearly in the fight with luffy that like....#kaido craves and i mean CRAVES that BLOODLUST. that FIGHT that makes his own heart beat.#that makes BREATHING worth it #nothing could kill the man.#it makes me remember the one line from kaido #something along the lines of--you will be remembered #that even though luffy would lose. kaido would remmeber him. would respect him.#it's just very interesting #there's a big message of trial by combat amidst the beast pirates #least amidst the upper four.#kaido and his calamities #king especially this is true.#especially ESPECIALLY when thinking about all king has gone through
