Would Kaidou's observation haki not be able to help or is it a stomp?
Kaido would still have no way of hurting Orochi. He’d just have to keep dodging until his stamina runs out, and it’s easy pickings for Orochi.
Can't he burn Orochi with bolo breath or Flaming Drum Dragon? Like, once he sees his power level with Observation, he'll know to go 100% with him, and try to vaporize him. If Orochi has heat resistance then he wins though
I don't believe that would be enough. Besides, Orochi does have heat resistance, as he could wrap himself with a cloak of fire, and his fire breath was potent enough to melt and explode stone. He also had no problem standing in lava. So yea, Kaido has no wincons here.
Yeah this match is a stomp lol. Um, perhaps Luffy vs Orochi?
How good is his regeneration though?
His regeneration won't really help him here, since he can only regenerate through the absorption of other beings, not by himself.
Okay.. That's definitely not a factor here then, but why can't he just, y'know, absorb Kaidou?
Yea, he can. But Orochi usually doesn't start with absorption, and he only used it after Saitama had destroyed his body and he needed to put himself back together. He might resort to it if he's being pushed to his limit, but Kaido could still likely predict the attack with his Haki and see into the future to avoid being absorbed.
Should I start counting votes?
No.
Okay
Orochi can use the power of the planet to charge his gaia cannon, so i think that kaido doesn't have a chance to win a clash
Orochi scales to 5.68 Exatons by charging the Gaia Cannon alone, the Gaia Cannon AP should be far above that value so in a direct beam clash Orochi would win.
Gaia Cannon would be one shot then. Can Kaidou avoid in time?
He can with his Haki, since he sees few seconds of the future, but Orochi can still attack him from different directions with the hundreds of dragons that make up his body and i don't know if he can dodge that
Well he could dodge Luffy, who's comparable to him in speed, in Dragon Form, which is his slowest form, so I doubt he can't dodge hundreds of dragons attacking him. He could also react to Luffy's gatling attacks a couple times ( read thishttps://onepiece.fandom.com/wiki/Chapter_1037 )
Hard to determine at which point Orochi's heat resistance stops to work here, the fact is that he can casually walk on lava and his body can contain fire beams that melt rock alongside being able to bear the heat from the energy directly extracted from Earth's core.
And as for the king's haki, could it incapacitate the dragons?
No, they're part of his body
Kaidou has serious problems then
Not unless they have their own wills/souls which are considerably weaker than Kaidou's.
What you said is like saying that my leg has its own will/soul
No, like conjoined twins. Y'know how Cerberus had 3 heads? Kind of like that.
I understand what you say, but no. Orochi's body is made of dragons that are just part of his body.
But Orochi has a greater versatility since he can copy the enemy martial arts, can use every dragon of his body (and they can use martial arts as well), can change the form of his body to fight better, has a greater AP and strenght.
