In the end, Shanks made it to Marineford unharmed, meaning it's possible that he recognizes Shanks' strength or the two struckР’В some kind of deal that made the Beast Pirates sail back to Wano. However, Kaido never got to Whitebeard because another man was there to hold him at bay at the time of the War at Marineford: 'Red-Haired' Shanks, the next person Kaido sees in Luffy.Р’В Kaido's relationship with Shanks is also a mystery, but we do know he and his crew were enough to stop Kaido from intercepting Whitebeard.

When Whitebeard left the New World to save Ace from the Navy, Kaido planned on ambushing him and his men when their defenses were down, meaning Kaido realized Whitebeard wasn't a foe he could outright attack unless the opportunity presented itself.

In Luffy's last fight with Kaido, none of his attacks seemed to damage the Yonko in the slightest, and when the Scabbards were facing off against Kaido it took all nine of them working together to even scratch such a powerful foe. The moment happens during the aftermath of the blow Luffy just gave KaidoР’В in Chapter #1,000.
