Ya I am hearing that from the get go -
First it was kuma and bonney
Then it was Nika
Then it was Nika and bonney
Then Emreth
And, guess what - neither of them was able to beat any of the elder - heck all JB compressed haki did was revert Saturn back to human form and send elders flying.
So, again - I don't mind Saturn losing - I mean it's given Saturn has to get out of commission for Devon plot to come into picture...
My question to you is who in egghead can pull this off? As of now - no one

The thing is there’s no better time than now. Elders very rarely come off from Marijoa (I think it has been stated it was the first time in years/decades?), chances of him being isolated as he is now after this arc are very low.
Maybe Emeth will wake up again (wouldn’t the first time he flip flop between shutting down)
Maybe Saturn will try to kill Sentoumaru who still on the island while looking for York, could be the tipping point for Kizaru @Fujishiro
Or really nothing happens and Saturn only fall way later alongside all the other elders in Marijoa but the combo of Devon taking his appearance + role as the main villain of this arc when it comes to drama make it more *likely* for Egghead to be it for him.
That’s my reasoning and would be 100% confident if it wasn’t for the apparent immortality without weakness that I concede have no answer for right now
