One Piece: Saturn's Devil Fruit Awakening, Explained
Gorosei Saturn has awakened his Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, as seen in One Piece 1094.
It was only a matter of time before that happened and fans were fully expecting for him to join the battle on Egghead, however, even knowing that could not have prepared them for what they witnessed in the previous chapter. Saturn is a menacing enemy who is now going to fight in the Egghead War. However, with Luffy already down and Zoro busy, it could fall on Sanji to take him on in combat.
Bonney Vs Saturn On Egghead Island
As soon as Saturn landed on Egghead Island using his strange magical summoning circle in the previous chapter, it was clear that he was looking to turn the tides of the war in the favor of the Government. Saturn would not have made this move if he was not forced to, and given that the situation was looking dire for the Marines, he absolutely had to step in. His incredible might was on full display from the very moment he landed on the island. It was made clear that no Marine with a rank lower than that of a Commodore was supposed to look him in the eye.
When one of them tried to do so, his head was blown off, which just goes to show how much of a ferocious monster he is. Much to the luck of Saturn, Vegapunk and his ship landed right in front of him and, given that the goal is to assassinate the Navy scientist, it is a golden opportunity for him to end things. However, at the same time, Bonney was right in front of him as well. To the surprise of the readers, she picked up a sword lying nearby and thrust it deep into his chest. This shocked the readers, given that Saturn is one of the strongest in the world of One Piece, however, the fact is that, at the end of the day, this simple sword stab is not going to do anything to him. Bonney, who's fueled by rage, might be in trouble in the next chapter and, given that she is up against a monstrous being in Saturn, she could be in great trouble. It is entirely possible for Saturn to completely knock her out or retaliate in some shape or form.
Will Sanji Fight Saturn?
Of course, another character right in front of Saturn is Sanji. Fans know that Sanji is a very strong fighter himself. He is one of the commanders of Yonko Luffy and he has a bounty of 1.032 billion berries on his head. If that is not enough, Sanji was able to dismantle a monster in Queen in the Wano arc. By all means, he is a challenge for anyone to take on and combat, however, against Saturn, this might prove to be very difficult. The fact is, that these two characters could very well end up clashing in the next chapter. For one, Sanji would want to keep Bonney safe at all times. Given that she attacked a member of the Five Elders head-on, she is in great trouble and Sanji would want to protect her. If he isn't able to protect her, then Saturn is going to face his wrath and, once again, that sets up a clash between Sanji and Saturn. However, that certainly is not all.
One Piece: The Demonic Powers Of Saturn, Explained
Saturn's powers start to be unraveled in One Piece 1094.
Sanji and Saturn's connection goes beyond just Bonney. Sanji has scientific powers and he might as well be the epitome of science in the world of One Piece, being on the path to pass even the Seraphims. Meanwhile, Saturn is the Warrior God of Science and Defense. This means that these two characters share a connection based on science and, given that facet of Sanji's story arc seems to revolve around science, it might well be that these two characters end up fighting in the next chapter.
How Sanji Vs Saturn Will Go
Sanji versus Saturn is a clash that not many fans expected at the beginning of the arc, however, now, it is almost upon them. Given that this clash will likely start with Bonney being in danger or being injured, fans can expect Sanji to switch to his Germa Mode. Nothing less would suffice against one of the highest authorities in the world and, perhaps, Sanji will then attack with his strongest techniques, such as Ifrit Jambe. This would make sense in more ways than just one.
Ifrit Jambe is an attack based on demonic powers and Saturn has demonic powers as well. This would be the perfect time for Saturn to showcase what he is truly capable of against Sanji. Of course, Sanji will fare well against him as well, given that he is quite a strong fighter himself, however, he absolutely cannot be expected to win this fight. The priority here should be to take Bonney to safety and, possibly even Vegapunk away from Saturn. Fans should absolutely expect a skirmish between these two characters, however, nothing more than that. Sanji might as well end up fighting Saturn at some point in the story, however, that time is not now and, for now, the safety of Vegapunk and Bonney is of paramount importance.
Luffy Vs Saturn
The ultimate fight here on Egghead is likely going to be Luffy up against Saturn. While Luffy is down at the moment, it is worth noting that he is not out of Gear 5 entirely. He is at his limit, however, so it is difficult for the fans to figure out how he's going to continue fighting. But, Luffy simply has to pull through because if he doesn't, everyone around him will surely die. The only person capable of taking on Saturn and defeating him in battle is Luffy and it is unfortunate that he had to fight against Kizaru very early in the arc.
That said, if Luffy truly is to stand among the Yonko, he has to brush this off and continue fighting, just as he did against Kaido. Meanwhile, the threat of Kizaru might still be looming. Even though Luffy landed a very powerful attack on him, Kizaru might still be able to move, although greatly weakened. This is a fight that Sanji could then take for himself. Both of these fighters use their legs in combat and are based on speed. It is a clash that fans would absolutely love and this would mean that Luffy would then be responsible for taking on Saturn, the strongest on the island, and Sanji would then shift his focus to Kizaru, while Zoro fights out Lucci.
By all means, the fights on Egghead Island appear incredibly exciting for the fans and it is only a matter of time before they take another twist and get even more intense. The final saga of One Piece has kicked off in full force and fans can only hope that Oda maintains this intensity throughout.
One Piece is available to read via Viz Media. The series can be read by the fans officially and for free on the Shonen Jump and the Manga Plus app. The release date for the next chapter of One Piece, One Piece 1095, is set to be October 15, 2023.
