Speculations The Gorosei Numbering Is Not What You Think

[MonsterZoro]

It’s from youngest to oldest

saturn 5 he looks oldest

From what we can parse from the images of the summoning circles, the Gorosei numbering goes:

Ju Peter - 1
V. Nasujuro - 2
Warcury - 3
Mars - 4
Saturn - 5

A lot of people think this numbering is strength related, and while it could be, I think it represents something else:

The order in which each member were given the immortality surgery/became immortal/were inducted into the gorosei.

Thats why Ju Peter looks the youngest: he had the operation done first.

And that’s why Saturn looks the oldest: he had the operation done last.

Good theory but also are they all from the same time? Or different centuries?

First come agriculture , then society and finance , then managing environment and finally science. So maybe in that order.

What about Justice though? Even nomadic Hunter-gatherers probably had some primitive code of justice even if it wasn’t codified.

Just like to say something that may not be related to the thread.

Although Saturn maybe #5 but that doesn't make him look like the least authority/the Moria of the crew
He looks just as important if not the most important. Dude looks the oldest with the only one with a stick and talk like the most noble among them in every Gorosei screentime since day1........it gives the Chairman/Headmaster vibe of the group.
Won't be surprise if he's the most flashed out Gorosei among them especially seeing how Oda just rushed towards revealing other Gorosei after Saturn( the most important) got his an entire arc dedicated to him. Not to forget that Devon copies his power out of all other Gorosei.

Most often it is very simple - Saturn should be no 5. I might be wrong but I dont think we have ever seen no 1 first. At best he could be Blueno, Jack, Cracker. No 4 or there about.

Did the numbering of VP's satellites mean anything? I don't remember.
