With the last scene in chapter 1047, it's highly likely that the showdown between Kaido and Luffy will come to a conclusion soon.
Rarely does a 'mentor' exhibit such compassion as Kaido, one of the Four Emperors and also the governor of the Beasts Pirates. In One Piece chapter 1047, upon realizing his 'student' relies too much on Devil Fruit abilities, Kaido once again reminds Luffy of the importance of Haki, citing Roger, the man who became the Pirate King, and conquered all with this power.
As an intelligent and bright 'student,' Luffy earnestly absorbs the teachings of his teacher Kaido, preparing a punch of colossal proportions covering Onigashima in darkness, with lightning bolts shooting out. It seems Luffy has employed advanced armament Haki along with conqueror's Haki to ready the punch he told Momonosuke would be the blow to defeat Kaido.
Thus, the battle between Kaido and Luffy reaches a decisive phase, likely after Luffy has internalized his mentor's teachings about Haki. Luffy has prepared a punch to 'repay' Kaido's reminders about the importance of this power. If this unfolds, it may very well mark the last heartfelt lesson from the dedicated teacher Kaido to his student Luffy.
Before One Piece chapter 1047, Kaido has knocked out his student Luffy a total of 3 times. However, instead of taking the life of the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Kaido has imparted valuable lessons to the protagonist. Firstly, when Luffy believed advanced armament Haki was sufficient to face a powerhouse like a Yonko, Kaido helped him realize how formidable the combination of advanced armament Haki and conqueror's Haki truly is.
Luffy begins to grasp the power of conqueror's Haki and its strength when combined with powerful strikes. Upon returning to face Kaido, despite knowing how to combine it with conqueror's Haki, Luffy's attacks still lack the force to defeat Kaido. Interrupted by CP0, Luffy continues to be knocked out by the Beasts Pirates governor. However, instead of killing his opponent, Kaido descends to lower floors and challenges those who stand in his way.
With the power of awakened Zoan Mythical Devil Fruit, Luffy in Gear 5 continues to pose challenges for Kaido. However, reality shows that Luffy's attacks are not strong enough to defeat Kaido, and he relies on Devil Fruit abilities to withstand Kaido's powerful blows.
In that situation, Kaido's lesson on Haki could potentially lead to a breakthrough for Luffy. At the end of chapter 1047, the student has prepared a punch with advanced armament Haki and colossal conqueror's Haki. This blow could potentially defeat Kaido, and the lesson on Haki might be the final teaching from this dedicated mentor.
