I would hope that he would have more of a role then that. It seems that when the Big Mom pirates ship fell down the first time it took some time to make another attempt. Hopefully Marco and the Whitebeard pirates can have more of a role in events then that. As for the Flying Six against the Strawhats, they seem to be trying to avoid fighting for now. How long that will last is anyone's guess because if the alliance ruins the fire festival then Kaido will be out for blood and they won't have the excuse of trying to find his son to protect them.
