Current Events It´s time to admit: EGGHEAD IS ONE OF THE BEST ONE PIECE ARCS EVER

You're missing the point of my comment. Right now there is no explanation for these mysterious abilities that just appear out of nowhere. Awfully convenient that this new Devil Fruit revelation fits pretty good as an explanation.

The point is, unexplained abilities exist. We still don't know all there is to know about how devil fruits are created. We will find out. But if it turns out these unexplained powers are infact infant stages of devil fruit creations, then there you go. There will be your examples.
Under the assumption that you just made, there are no examples of what you just described. All you did was name abilities and showed zero examples of any manifestation or characters struggling. You went from it being "manifested from struggles" to "these unexplained powers are infact infant stages of devil fruit". Unexplained powers still aren't what you just described of characters struggling. When did we see Fishmen struggle, Minks struggle, etc.

I never said they had to be manifested from struggles. I just gave a possible scenario of a strong desire, through a struggle.

We will go back to Zoro. He desires to be the strongest Swordsman. Asura is an ability that clearly takes him to another level of strength as a swordsman, by allowing him to utilize a Nine Sword style of fighting. If that is indeed the route that Oda is going with Asura, then clearly it's not something that just manifests in the blink of an eye. It takes time.

I can't say it for everyone, but for me Egghead arc isn't that great ...

-Devil fruits origin is a joke
-I don't like Vegapunk ,cause most of his qualities are thanks to his devil fruit, and stolen technology from the past
-Robin stayed with the revolutionary for 2 years and no one tell her that there are survivors from Ohara
-Saul came back from the dead
-Robin's flashback lost importance
-Lucci clashing with Luffy Gear 5 make no sense
-Lucci has awakening while Kaido doesn't

But overall the arc is still enjoyable, and better than Wano for me

Hope next chapter doesn't end with Kizaru still heading for Egghead Island though...
Your first 5 points are pretty superflous.

- This is Vegapunk's hypothesis, not an actual explanation. Theres likely more to it. Why does "desire" will DFs? If thats the case, why doesnt it happen presenty? Or if it does, is someone like Zoro an example of this (demonic aura = devil fruit upon death?), similar to how Nika was seemingly once a person

- Vegapunks genius is his own. His devil fruit is brain capacity. Hes too smart to hold all of his knowledge, thats the point.

- Dragon didnt know Saul survived. Vegapunk only actually knew it was Saul after visiting Elbaf to read the books....

- Saul being alive is an age old theory for Elbaf lol. Many people didnt think Aokiji would kill him.

- it did not lose importance. Ohara is dead. Her people are gone. Shes the only person who can read poneglyphs outside of 3rd eye people. The books do not contain full void century knowledge.
