Kaido of the Beasts is the captain of the Beasts Pirates and one of the Yonko, the third to be mentioned by name, and the last one to debut. He is one of the central antagonists of the Pirate Alliance Saga. According to Trafalgar Law and the manga, Kaido is known as the “strongest creature in the world”.
After he has finally been introduced in the manga and we saw his appearance, he has been compared to a lot of historical characters. One of them is Genghis Khan, a Mongol.
Just like Kaido, Genghis Khan had the fu manchu mustache, which originated from the Mongols. They also have dark hair, and both represent extremely strong warriors.
Did you know that Genghis Khan had a great-grandson named Kaidu? Is the legendary Mongol ruler named “Kaidu” the inspiration for Kaido? After all, Kaido does resemble a Mongol warrior, and he does share a similar name to this famous Mongol ruler.
Kaidu was the leader of the House of Ögedei and the de facto khan of the Chagatai Khanate, a division of the Mongol Empire. He ruled part of modern-day Xinjiang and Central Asia during the 13th century, and actively opposed his uncle, Kublai Khan, who established the Yuan dynasty in China, until Kaidu’s death in 1301. Kaidu waged a continuous war lasting 30 years against Kublai and his successor.
Kaidu had a daughter named Khutulun. Though Kaidu had fourteen sons, he relied mostly on his daughter Khutulun for advice and aid in military matters. Khutulun, Kaidu’s daughter, was one of Kaidu’s greatest warriors. Apparently, no man could beat her in a wrestling match, and she was undefeated in thousands of battles. Any man who wanted to marry her had to first defeat her in wrestling. If a suitor lost, he had to give her his horse. By doing that, she won 10,000 horses. Marco Polo described Khutulun as a superb warrior, one who could ride into enemy ranks and snatch a captive as easily as a hawk snatches a chicken.
But when you look at her picture who does she reminds you of? A ninja! She even wears a samurai armour on the second picture.
So what if Raizou is actually Kaido’s daughter and one of his strongest fighters. Raizo, for some reason, ran away from Wano Kuni and for that same reason she headed with Kin’emon and Kanjuro to Zou but they shipwrecked and got separated. That would explain why Jack is hunting Raizo but also why Momonosuke got so scared when he heard about Kaido’s name.
No matter what you think, it’s strange for Jack to fight 5 days and 5 nights only to find an ordinary samurai. Isn’t that strange? If they were looking for Momonosuke, why bother finding Raizo? Wouldn’t he go after Momonosuke, now that they know that he is with Luffy? Maybe the one Kaido’s army is searching for is not Momonosuke like everyone thinks (and that he is the shogun), but it is actually Raizo, Kaido’s daughter.
For those who say that Raizou is clearly male: it was never confirmed that Raizou is actually male. The gender was never mentioned. Also, even though the translators referred to Raizou as “he”, that doesn’t mean anything. It is possible to use a neutral pronoun in Japanese so that the gender stays hidden. It is usully translated as “they” or “them”, but sometimes it happens that the translations don’t convey that. So until Raizou is officially introduced in the manga, there is still the possibility that Raizou is female.
All rights go to the maker of this theory.
