Speculations Luffy's next opponent in Egghead
- Thread starter Hako Sama
- Start date
It's hard to tell.
- Luffy's not fighting two top tiers (still hoping Kizaru really is a top tier) 1 vs 2, so it's not option 3.
Conclusion: Not option 3.
- Luffy's objective is to defend Vegapunk and gain time for him to get to safety (along with the rest of the SHs), and Saturn's objective is killing Vegapunk and Nika, both of which are in front of him. Unless something unexpected happens to Saturn, he's fighting Luffy. It might be the ancient robot keeps Saturn busy while Kizaru fights Luffy again but it's likely as soon as the robot gets there the SHs will just run away and that'd be the end. Saturn is the major enemy here now, and depending on the robot's strength Kizaru might also be distracted by it.
Conclusion: Likely not option 2, albeit not impossible.
- Either Kizaru stays down, Kizaru confronts Saturn (if he does, he dies unless he dips with the SHs, but that'd be a pretty weird development) or someone not named Luffy keeps Kizaru busy. As much as I'd support Zoro doing that, as long as Kizaru's objective is to get to Vegapunk at all costs and not just to defeat his opponent, I don't think Zoro can keep him from running away from him (unless he has already surpassed Rayleigh).
Conclusion: Likely not option 1 because what does Kizaru do if not fight Luffy? Have a change of heart and join him to save VP?

Well first, people should be taking this objectively. Here are the facts:
- Luffy will recover, but its never immediate
- The Robot is activating
- Kizaru is getting up and is conscious (his own words)
- Zoro is fighting Lucci
Luffy is in no capacity to save Bonney. This is a fact, which means someone or something else will.
If Kizaru gets up, there is virtually NO ONE there able to fight him. Zoro is still fighting Lucci, and it is currently headcanon to think Kizaru will fuck off and either not be a combative asset the rest of the arc (i.e. wipe out the Strawhats or attempt to) or betray the marines (yet).
This absolutely means there really is only one avenue: Luffy will need to keep Kizaru down. Saturn on the other hand is not made of light and cant just zip around the island, that doesnt change after this flashback.
Thats not to say they (Luffy and Saturn) cant clash or fight at some point, but this does not address Kizaru
