Hi Worstgen,
I believe Kizaru is being primed for Awakening.
- Haki blooms in battle. He has just been pushed to his limit similarly to how Luffy reached his limit with Kaido.
- I believe Akainu and Aokiji have been awakened ever since they fought each other on Punk Hazard: Logia Awakening may imply long lasting effects to environments instead of temporary ones.
- All the Admirals have tons of accumulated experience. They may have just needed fierce combat situations to trigger an awakened state. This may involve dreams clashing and evolving.
- I believe Justice is a plot device for Awakening. I believe Awakenings are based on Spiritual Laws. Therefore, forms of Divine Justice allow a person to follow a path of Awakening.
- IF Kizaru does not awaken, then he will not pose a serious threat, and Saturn may dismiss him as an unimportant element in the overall Egghead matter. He will become as irrelevant as Lucci has become because the same thing happened to him. He was defeated by Luffy with 1 major hit and then became useless.
