TLDR: Enel is using Electricity to hack Edison, and control Egghead Island from the inside. Enel was last seen on the moon, exploring ancient technology and robots from both earth, and the moon. The earth robots were built by Dr. Tsukimi, and had no wings, while the moon robots had wings, and were built by the moon people who then fled to earth.
Vegapunk and Dr. Tsukimi are both from Karakuri Island (translation: Mechanical Island), the place Franky studied during the Time Skip. Vegapunk and Dr. Tsukimi learned to create robots from knowledge left behind by moon people. Edison is designed after the same robots Enel met on the moon, and, because Enel knows how they work, Enel was able to use Electricty to hack Edison. Edison in the real world was a scientist connected to electricity who attacked another scientist, Tesla, who wanted to create free energy for everyone.
Enel is a mechanical genius, who constructed the Arc Maxim, a superweapon which could perform space travel. His knowledge of electricity and mechanics is great enough that he operates the Arc using his electricity, and could repair it himself. Knowing the Lunarians were once Gods, Enel wishes to take over Vegapunk's Seraphim as his own army.
God Enel has come to smite the false God Nika
Whooo, that was just the TLDR! There's a lot to unpack here, huh?
To begin with, I wanted to take a step back from all my theories about Blackbeard having a presence on Egghead. There was one big reason for this: if Cipher Pol had been trapped in Egghead for 2 months by the Blackbeard Pirates, Blackbeard would have already known about the Seraphim before Amazon Lilly. So, it has to be a Vegapunk at this point. Or, does it?
Who else in this series can hack robots, has experience with robots, and could possibly infiltrate Egghead? Oh, yeah, this fucker right here:
We last left Enel surrounded by winged robots from the moon, who were created and left behind by the winged moon people that descended to earth. NOTICE THE GIANT LIGHTBULB IN THE TOP RIGHT? Edison, baby.
Enel can fly at the speed of Lightning, and has advanced CoO that lets him scout out areas for life at a miles wide radius. His Matra INCLUDES, the robots, as well, so Enel would be able to sense the Seraphim and Punks (possibly even the hologram people). This panel proves that, as he sense the robot automata in the crater with his Haki:
Invading Egghead would be easy for Enel. So, how does Enel connect to Egghead? Well, to begin with, Edison was famous for, what? Electricity. He also was famous for hating Tesla, who wanted what? Free energy for everyone, just like Vegapunk. Why name a Vegapunk after a guy who hated the idea of free energy, and fought against it, if that's what Vegapunk wants?
Enel has connections to the ancient civilization and robots, but, he's shown great scientific skill before any of that. Enel's knowledge of the human body is great enough that he can perform defibrillation on himself after his heart stops by electrifying it. And then, there's the Arc Maxim. Knowing gold conducts electricity, Enel built a flying ship that can destroy entire islands, as well as travel into space and land on the moon.
Enel could control the Arc easily with his electricity, as well as repair it if necessary, showcasing AMAZING mechanical and engineering intelligence. It should be easy for Enel to reverse-engineer these robots, and possibly make new ones, if he has the resources. Okay, so, where did these robots come into existence, and how do they connected with Vegapunk and Egghead?
Well, there are two types: the automata from Karakuri Island built by Dr. Tsukimi, who went to the moon using balloons, and were saved by Enel; and the ancient automata left behind by the moon people themselves, who are different because they have wings (just like the Seraphim).
Fun fact: Karakuri Island is where Franky found Vegapunk's old lab, and blew it up, before finding another old lab. The island's name translates to "Mechanical Island", and we see this is where the wingless robots Enel rescued were built:
If Dr. Tsukimi and Dr. Vegapunk BOTH learned how to create robots, I assume they learned how to from ancient technology/books left behind on Karakuri island, or, Vegapunk shared his Ohara research with Dr. Tsukimi. Either way, the point is, Vegapunk, Dr. Tsukimi, and Enel were all working with the same kind of robots. Vegapunk and Tskumi USED MOON SCIENCE, the same science Enel has been learning about for the last two years, to make their automata. THIS IS THE BASIS FOR PACIFISTA AND SERAPHIM TECHNOLOGY.
The Seraphim don't just have Lunarian DNA, THEY ARE MADE FROM LUNARIAN TECHNOLOGY.
So, by that logic, Enel, with electricity, should be able to hack and control Vegapunk's robots. Guess who is perfectly shaped like the moon robots Enel met, and is wearing a helmet to cover himself up? Yep.
It's fucking Edison, innit?
Same eyes, same size, same head shape, similar arm length. Both wearing helmets. Also, look at Edison's helmet. It's what? Both rabbit and plug shaped. Rabbits are connected to what, in Japan? The Moon. In One Piece, we have a rabbit who uses Electro who knows a robot, a man on the moon made of electricity, and a robot named after a scientist who used electricity, who was made by a man who used moon technology to build robots. Notice how all the moon robots had helmets, as well?
Enel is connected to Vegapunk, as well: Vegapunk believes God is made up of people's dreams, while Enel believes God is fear. Enel selfishly uses power and technology, while Vegapunk spreads it.
Where was Enel introduced? In a marvelous city with ancient secrets and technology located in the clouds. Where are we now? In a marvelous city with ancient secrets and technology located in the clouds.
You want something REALLY FUN? Guess when Enel's Great Space Operations Cover Story started? Guess?
Right after Luffy beat Lucci in Enies Lobby.
Who is coming to fight Luffy now? Gorosei, the gods of the world.
But wait, there's more! The name of the ancient city Enel found on the Moon is Birka... which is also the name of the city/Sky Island HE DESTROYED HIMSELF.
Enel traveled to the moon because he believed it was Fairy Vearth, and that God himself lived there. Who has just been revealed to be the actual God of the One Piece universe?
Do you think Enel is going to accept Luffy as his god (would be a hilarious twist, to be honest) or do you think Enel is going to try to kill Luffy even harder once he finds out the rubber asshole who beat him up in Skypiea is actually worshipped as god? Enel's coming for Luffy's head once he knows, and Enel will probably want the same out of the Gorosei, and Imu, for calling themselves above him. Who are the Seraphim supposed to be serving? The Gorosei, the gods of the world.
That's what Enel wants. To Enel, the Lunarian Seraphim Vegapunk created ARE HIS VEARTH. They were created by taking Lunarian DNA, and merging it with Lunarian science. To Enel's crazy narcissistic ass, the Seraphim are his children, from his Fairy Vearth. He's not going to let some gross old man like Vegapunk soil them.
Armed with the knowledge of Lunarians and Lunarian technology, Enel has hacked Edison, who was built to resemble Dr. Tsukimi's automata, and the moon automata, and has turned the Seraphim against their makers, to kill them for the sin of stealing Enel's Vearth. To Enel, everything in the world is his Vearth, ESPECIALLY anything connected to the moon, to Fairy Vearth. The entire world is Vearth to him, and nothing is more sacred than Fairy Vearth.
Vegapunk is lucky he has Sun God Nika on his side, because he has angered not just the gods of the World Governement, but the God of Fairy Vearth, Enel.
And the God of the Moon is coming to take his Vearth back, and rule over the lower realm with his robot armies.
