General & Others Could Kuzan come to Egghead island?

#1
The egghead island arc has been a set up for 2 different villains:
  1. the blackbeard pirates
  2. the world government
Kuzan is at the intersection of these two groups, a former admiral turned blackbeard pirate.

Also, Egghead doesn't have a true antagonist. It has Lucci and Kaku, as well as vegapunk, but none are a threat to Luffy. And Luffy is usually given a fight, even in minor arcs.

So what if the antagonist of egghead island is Kuzan? If Kuzan comes to Egghead, Luffy beats him via G5, Vegapunk sees G5, and we get more info about Nika and Luffy's fruit.

Kizaru is a must for this arc but I'd love Kuzan to show up too if possible.

A winter/cold themed arc and since Vegapunk has that "tropical climate system", would be interesting if a certain ice themed formerd admiral turned up and froze over the island? Maybe forcing a change of outfits for the SHs and co too, to more winter type clothes again?

Maybe Kuzan freezing over Cacao would be a sort of "foreshadowing" to him doing the same to Egghead too? It would be a perfect throwback to PUNK Hazard too ofc, the parallels would be insane!

Imo Kuzan should still pose a massive threat to Luffy via his DF at least, but we know Kuzan has strong haki mastery from Marineford too and being a former Admiral, he should put up a hell of a fight for Luffy imo if he does appear and they do fight ofc.

Kuzan freezing Luffy would make it impossible for him to use his DF but Luffy has unexplained fire powers, is the "sun god" and given Law was able to break Doc Qs body transformation DF effect on him with haki, maybe Luffy can escape being frozen and slowed by enough haki too?

I don’t really see a scenario where any of Blackbeard’s people come to Egghead however I could see Akainu sending Kizaru, he has been associated w Vegapunk due to the technology that was inspired by his laser beams and he hasn’t had anything to do in a long time. Could be the perfect time to show how far Luffy has come since their initial interaction in Sabaody in which Kuma was also involved. Clash between the monkeys? 🤔

Kuzan arrives in Egghead, Wizaru arrives also and gives the traitor a true punishment unlike Papazuki who let him live.
KIzaru vs Kuzan would be so fucking dope too. I'd love to see how that would play out with their DFs, ideologies and personalities too. Film Z had both of them showing up to Zephyr as well, coincidence or not?

Although Film Z was before Dressrosa and thus Reverie as far as I remember, definitely before the Reverie at least and thus we didn't know about Fujitora and Green Bull back then so they couldn't have appeared and got involved anyway, nor Oda wasn't gonna show Green Bull before Wano too anyway ofc lol.

But yeah, Kizaru vs Kuzan would be a great way to explore the contrasts of their ideologies and personalities, both are seen as "lazy" or inert/inactive in their own ways but both of them might show more layers to their own philosophies/beliefs, such as why Kuzan defected from the Marines and joined BB and why Kizaru was associated with Vegapunk back at Sabaody and if hes interested in science/tech which would make sense, hes gives me a scientist vibe even and maybe Kizaru might be pro WG or Vegapunk or something?

Since the WG is trying to kill Vegapunk now, and Sentomaru who was associated with Vegapunk as his bodyguard and knew Kizaru at Sabaody and was trying to contact him, I feel this all has to tie in together this arc too somehow.

Going back to the topic and Kuzan too, I saw a great theory that the reason Kuzan defected and joined BB is that unlike Akainu who is stuck behind a desk now as Fleet Admiral and the Admirals being stuck at the whims of the Celestial Dragons and thus the Gorosei/WG too or w/e, the Marines even needed permission to engage enemies a few times before including vs BB at Amazon Lily, Kuzan was probably also fed up with their own inaction too ironically, that restraint holding them back and thus the "lazy justice guy" who was "fired up justice" pre Ohara incident too. decided to take matters into his own hands and go rogue?

So in other words, Kuzan joined BB so he could freely hunt other pirates as BB targeted them for stealing DFs and gaining power in various ways and Kuzan could pretend to be helping BBs goals/interests but secretly scheming to betray him later?

I just can't see Kuzan "turning evil" and truly associating with pirates especially BB's crew unless he learned too much about the WG somehow, maybe found out about Imu somehow or and dug deeper on the Ohara incident secretly and that was part of his reason for defecting too especially?

Kuzan is such a fantastic, unpredictable enigma now more than ever before, hes is rivalling Kizaru in that aspect now for sure and I can't wait to see where Oda goes with him. I really hope he does show up at Egghead too as we're seeing so much of the BB pirates now finallyy, yet still missing out on seeing Pizarro, Kuzan, San Juan Wolf, Lafitte and such doing anything on-panel especially and thus having a role/plot too.

Kuzan tried to freeze Laws sub and prevent them escaping at Marineford, he froze the ocean there but I wonder if he let them escape purposely and thus had his ice "be unable to reach them fast/far enough" in the sea or he just couldn't freeze that far into the ocean anyway?
He could return here vs Law potentially and freeze the ocean so Law and co can't escape or he could show up at Egghead and unleash true absolute frozen hell there lol. "Absolute Zero" even?

Its just my fanfic theory of Kuzan vs Borsalino but tbh given the Film Z & their personallity parallels it could be a really nice way to

1) Take out Kuzan out of the picture without being a mere subordinate that fights Zoro or Sanji but going all out against his former "mate"

2) A battle between these 2 onscreen will put an end to the "Admirals are just YC1+" cope.
