The intensity of his attack cuts through the flaming dragon of King and cuts one of his wings off. Chapter 1035 of the Manga ends with the narrator quoting ‘With One Swing Even The Dragons Are Torn Asunder’.

With Sanji beating Queen and assuming that Zoro beat King, the straw hats are on their way to reaching the victory point. And if they win over Kaido and his team, they will become the crew who beat the highest bounty yonko. However, this could also mean that future battles would be more dangerous and extreme.
