Jaygarcia Saturn

Saint Jaygarcia Saturn is one of the Five Elders who publicly head the World Government, possessing the title Warrior God of Science and Defense.

Due to his actions and role, he is the main antagonist of the Egghead Arc, and along with the other Elders, he is one of the overarching antagonists of the entire One Piece series, especially in its Final Saga.

Appearance
Saturn is a thickset, elderly man with a full white mustache and beard. He possesses white dreadlocks which he wears a flat black hat over. He has a scar on the left side of his face, stretching diagonally over his eye. Like two of his fellow Elders, his outfit consists of a black suit over a dark purple tie and a white collared shirt, as well as black pants. He carries a walking cane.

Notably for a World Noble, Saturn has eschewed wearing a resin bubble over his head while away from Mary Geoise.

38 years before the current events, Saturn looked remarkably similar to his current appearance.

Personality
Like the other Elders, Saturn cares about the balance in the world maintained by the Three Great Powers and wishes to maintain it. This also includes preserving the image of the World Government by keeping the events of the Void Century a secret, and he and the other Elders will immediately have anyone destroyed who is found to be studying it. He knows about the significance of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika and was willing to go to great lengths to prevent it from being awakened, even viewing angering one of the Four Emperors as a preferable outcome to avoid such a future happening and deliberately sacrificing Guernica, one of his best agents, to the alarm of another of the elders. When global chaos became unavoidable following the downfall of Kaidou and Big Mom, Saturn was anxious and sweating as he was left at a loss as to how to respond without the option of covering everything up.

Like the other Elders, he has little tolerance for people of lower rank challenging their authority, as shown during the Elders' meeting with Marine Fleet Admiral Sakazuki although due to his high position he is highly diplomatic instead of threatening or making hostile moves towards the fleet admiral.

Unlike the other Elders, he seems to hold some form of empathy for important figures that seemed to have merit, as he was telling Kizaru it was an unfortunate turn of events that he had to go out and eliminate Vegapunk, though this would not stop him from executing his mission nonetheless. After locating Vegapunk, Saturn thanked him for all his contributions to the world government, not without later declaring that he would die a painful death and trying to consolidate the scientist's regret for having betrayed them. He also found it wasteful that they must destroy the Sea Beast Weapons, but preferred to maintain the Pacifista as a pragmatic, if reluctant, choice.

Much like his fellow World Nobles, Saturn has a low opinion of human lives and the captive Cipher Pol agents by extension, comparing them to insects that will merely reproduce regardless of the casualties in the worst-case scenario. This was shown again while in his awakened form where he referred to the various vice admirals concerned for his safety as insects that needed to pipe down. He also called them fools for attempting to seize Vegapunk instead of focusing their weapons on Bonney's head. Saturn is not above racism either, as shown with his very first encounter with a young Bartholomew Kuma, telling the boy he deemed the entire Buccaneers race to be condemnable solely for an unrevealed crime they committed in the past. Above all else Saturn is a greatly cruel individual, learning news that Kuma and Vegapunk where discussing a way to cure his daughters disease he decided to use this as a means to use Kuma as a weapon for the government, forcing the man to agree to have his free will stripped away while also being modified to become a weapon after Kuma agreed to these terms he decided to place his daughter under government surveillance with a threat that if Kuma were to ever contact his daughter or flee he would make the girl a slave. Even after these demands were set in place and Kuma was about to undergo the procedure to lose his free will, Saturn demanded Vegapunk implant a self destruct switch into Kuma, justifying it as a means to stop him on the slim chance he goes out of control, showcasing further unrelenting cruelty.

Imu
While Saturn and his fellow elders are reputed as the greatest authorities in the World Government, they all secretly answer to Imu, the current sovereign of the world and occupant of the Empty Throne who he and his fellow elders are extremely loyal to revere in high regard. As such, he turned to Imu's guidance regarding whichever "light" deserves permanent erasure from history, indicating their role in the Government's oppressive tyranny for centuries. He also obeys Imu's commands without questioning, agreeing to make the necessary preparations to wipe out Lulusia kingdom on their order. Saturn also wasted no time holding Cobra at gunpoint when Imu revealed themself to him showing a protectiveness to keep their ruler's identity a secret as well as wasting no time to attempt to kill Sabo when he discovered and attempted to attack him, his fellow elders and Imu.

Sakazuki
After Saturn and the Five Elders at large played a role in the false news of Doflamingo's resignation from the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Sakazuki was outraged by how the Five Elders would go out of their way to protect him, not even caring if it would tarnish the Marine's reputation. Saturn told Sakazuki to watch his tone repeatedly having no real concern over his reputation being tarnished and a sentiment shared by his fellow elders as he told him again to shut his mouth again for talking back to them.

Borsalino
Saturn appears to trust Kizaru at handling the orders he and his fellow elders give out, having him personally serve as his guard while journeying to Egghead to confront Vegapunk, he also allowed Kizaru to personally handle Sentomaru despite him initially telling him to ignore the former marine and head straight into the Labophase dome. Despite this, he was disappointed in Kizaru's failings at carrying out Vegapunk's execution, noting that he was notably slower at handling this mission but relented that it must have been due to Monkey D. Luffy stopping him with his awakened form.

Kuzan
Saturn and fellow Elder Warcury were notably annoyed with Aokiji leaving his post to sight-see again while on duty. He seemed to agree with his fellow elder that Kuzan leaving the Navy to become a Blackbeard Pirates was a stain on the navy's reputation.

Monkey D. Luffy
Saturn and the Five Elders hold tremendous animus towards Monkey D. Luffy, not only for his heritage as the Revolutionary Dragon's son, but also for all the trouble he and his crew have caused. This includes invading Enies Lobby and defeating CP9 to save Nico Robin, causing the first mass breakout of Impel Down, intruding on the Summit War of Marineford to save Ace, and most of all for defeating multiple Warlords of the Sea such as Crocodile, Moria, and Doflamingo.

They collectively acknowledge Luffy's strength and see that he is truly Garp's grandson, as well as a deadly variable in their plans. They feared what he would be capable of should he defeat the Emperor, Kaidou, and so they ordered CP0 to eliminate him before that could happen. They were deeply concerned about Luffy's survival and were even fine with losing an agent and angering Kaidou as long as Luffy was killed, as they understood the potential of what he could do once his Devil Fruit was awakened, calling it the "most ridiculous power in the world." Their decision backfired, as not only did Luffy awaken his Devil Fruit, but he used his newfound power to defeat Kaidou.

When Luffy later temporarily disrupted their plans by capturing York, they were first formally introduced to Luffy, making it their first exchange, during which they tried to persuade him to reveal crucial information, though they were unable to do so. Later, when Saturn arrived at Egghead he saw Luffy in his Gear 5 form, he immediately recognized him as "Nika". Seeing Luffy severely weakened from his battle with Kizaru, Saturn attempted to kill him, only for Franky to foil him.

Vegapunk
Saturn and the elders first met with Dr. Vegapunk after he won the Ibel Peace Prize, inviting him to a personal audience at Mary Geoise. After enlisting him as a military scientist, he tasked him with the development of several new projects, including the Pacifista program, the Seraphim, and the replication of the Mother Flame. During the time of Vegapunk's employment, he consistently monitored him and even forced him to abandon his morality, with Saturn intervening in his work when he attempted to make a deal with the pirate and revolutionary Kuma to save his daughter from the Sapphire Scales disease and reprimanded him for talking out of line. Years later, when the elders became aware of Dr. Vegapunk's secret research into the forbidden Void Century, thanks to another satellite of him, York, they decided to eliminate him, though Saturn seemed to view killing Vegapunk as a shame due to his many contributions and inventions for the government throughout the years. Despite this, he was still fully willing to kill Vegapunk and declare that he would die a cruel and painful death.

Bartholomew Kuma
Saturn has a long history with Bartholomew Kuma starting from 38 years ago, when Saturn was overseeing a young Kuma and various other slaves as targets for the Native Hunting Competition on God Valley. When a government agent alerted Saturn that Kuma was caught after trying to flee he began to personally intervene and eventually confronted and attacked the boy, Kuma questioned the elder in front of him on why he was born important and why he was deemed a a slave at birth, declaring that he would save other slaves like Nika and causing Saturn to retort that his treatment was deserved due to him being a part of the Buccaneers race. After this encounter, Saturn still kept tabs on Kuma learning from an agent that he had become the current king of Sorbet and the following two years had discovered he planned on working with Vegapunk to cure his daughter while agreeing to be the face of the Pacifista project, Saturn quickly sought to use Kuma and his clones as human weapons for the government and went about a plan to force Kuma into becoming part of the Seven Warlords while also forcing him to lose his free will under threats of making his daughter a slave with Kuma ultimately agreeing to these terms if it meant he could save his daughter's life.

Jewelry Bonney
Saturn became aware of Jewelry Bonney's existence four years ago and used her as a hostage for Kuma to undergo modifications into a human weapon without his memories and will. Initially years after this, despite Bonney gaining infamy as a Super Rookie and member of the Worst Generation while escaping capture from the marines prior, Saturn still viewed her as a merely a child that outgrew her use and did not need to be dealt, but changed his opinion when Bonney discovered his history with Vegapunk and Kuma leading her to stab Saturn. Saturn healed the wound but grabbed and began crushing Bonney telling her that Kuma's persecution was due to him being a Buccaneer and that she would die a painful death for defying the government while ordering the marines to shoot her.

Sabo
Although initially unknown to Saturn, Sabo gained the Five Elders' attention and Imu when he stepped in to protect Nefertari Cobra from their assassination attempt in the Throne Room at Mary Geoise and were exasperated when he managed to escape their grasp, having witnessed Imu sitting on the Empty Throne, effectively making him their number one enemy. They noticed Sabo's affiliation with several occupants of the mysterious D., noting he was fate-struck by having encountered several of them.

Shanks
Though Shanks is considered an enemy given his status as a pirate, Saturn and his fellow Five Elders showed respect towards him and even allowed him an audience with them inside Mary Geoise, making room in their political agendas for him.

Abilities and Powers
As one of the Five Elders, the highest-ranking World Nobles, Saturn is one of the World Government's five highest authorities who, as a group, wield unrivaled influence over the world; only Imu (in secret) outranks them. Saturn thus controls every facet of the government, from the Marines to the Cipher Pol agencies, and even the Fleet Admiral cannot challenge his power. Specific examples of Saturn's authority (as shared by his fellow Elders) are his ability to order entire islands destroyed via a Buster Call or by deploying the Mother Flame (on Imu's behalf) whose preparations to carry out were prepared by Saturn given his wisdom in the field of science, and his ability to manipulate the global mediascape to alter or withhold facts from the general public (up to and including erasing entire segments of history, most notably the Void Century). In addition, Saturn and the other Elders are endowed with total authority over the Pacifista and Seraphim (above even their creator, Dr. Vegapunk's).

Due to Saturn's Elder status, marines at or below the commodore rank are not permitted to look upon him, with transgressors being punished with death by Saturn himself.

As the Warrior God of Science and Defense, Saturn likely has enough knowledge in those specific fields to be a respected authority regarding them. He claims himself to be a scientist and was confident that even Vegapunk, the world's smartest man, would be unable to deceive him when it came to Bartholomew Kuma's cyborg modifications.

Given his position, it is unclear exactly how battle-tested Saturn is, although the scar on his face implies a level of experience. At the very least, the Five Elders were confident that they could meet with Shanks, one of the world's most powerful pirates, in Pangaea Castle without having anyone there to guard them. At Egghead, Saturn was willing to personally move into the island center to come face to face with an Emperor's pirate crew.

Saturn has exhibited high pain tolerance, remaining unfazed by Jewelry Bonney stabbing him near his neck with a sword (which he noted he could have easily dodged had he wanted to).

Notably, the Elder has shown some esoteric powers. Which of these, if any, stem from his Devil Fruit is currently unclear:


 * Saturn appears to be either unaging or to age slower than normal. During the God Valley Incident nearly four decades ago, he bore the same aged look as he does in the present.
 * While in his Zoan form, Saturn arrived on Egghead by emerging from a "Magic Circle" (魔法陣) on the ground as if through a portal; said circle had a pentagram in its middle and five number 5s in-between its jags, possibly a reference to the Five Elders. As Saturn appeared, the circle emitted black, Haki-esque lightning while having fiery energy erupt from it, and several powerful fighters on Egghead took notice of the "strange" presence that had arrived. It is unknown if Saturn's array simply appears or someone has to draw it for him.
 * In both his human and spider-like forms, Saturn can project some kind of invisible, aura-like "force" resembling telekinesis,
 * without having to move. When invoking this power, visibly indicated by his eyes glowing, Saturn can injure people with a mere look, knock them back as though with an unseen blow, and physically force them to the ground to keep immobile. Vegapunk, who is aware of the contents of Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, surmised that this may be the result of a Devil Fruit. The abilities are shown to be affective even against a Worst Generation pirate like Jewelry Bonney, a modified human like Sanji, and an android like Atlas.
 * At least in his Zoan form, Saturn can heal from injuries. When he was pierced by a sword, the wound healed within seconds of the blade's removal, with even the blood stain vanishing.

Devil Fruit


Saturn has eaten a Zoan-type Devil Fruit that lets him transform into a horned being with a spider-like body, including six legs. Saturn appears to have "awakened" this ability, as indicated by the ribbon of dark, flaming smoke around his shoulders and torso when he is transformed.

In his arachnoid form, Saturn is gigantic—large enough to hold Jewelry Bonney in one hand—and has proven durable enough to withstand a point-blank Hiken from Sabo without being scathed. For offense, he can use his sharp-pointed legs to try to impale enemies, and his grip strength is enough to injure Bonney in her adult form.

Weapons
Saturn possesses a flintlock pistol, which he took out when the Five Elders prepared to assassinate Nefertari Cobra.

Past


38 years ago Saturn was in attendance during the Native Hunting Competition at God Valley where he was alerted by an agent that a Buccaneer slave that tried to escape was caught. Saturn went on to confront the young Kuma himself, incapacitating him using his ability. Saturn informed Kuma that Buccaneers were born to be slaves, but grew irate when Kuma proudly stated that he planned to save as many people as he could, just like Nika. Saturn was presumably unable to stop Kuma, as Kuma would later escape the island after rescuing 500 people.

As recognition for his genius inventions in MADS, Dr. Vegapunk was invited to Mary Geoise for an audience with the Five Elders.

Twenty years before the start of the series, the Five Elders spoke via Den Den Mushi to Professor Clover, an archaeologist from Ohara who was revealed to have been studying the Poneglyphs. Clover revealed that he knew too much about the Void Century, causing the Five Elders to order the Cipher Pol unit on Ohara to eliminate him and for a Buster Call to destroy Ohara and its historians.

Less than fourteen years ago (over ten years since Gol D. Roger's execution), Spandam persuaded the Five Elders to give him the authority to seek out the blueprints for Pluton.

Six years ago, Saturn was perplexed when informed that a new king had taken the throne of Sorbet. Four years ago, Saturn would listen in to Bartholomew Kuma and Vegapunk's conversation on the creation of Pacifista and curing Jewelry Bonney, using a Black Den Den Mushi. Saturn was disappointed in Vegapunk for not making the most of the situation, but would inform his subordinates that he had his own plans.

Saturn began to enact this plan by sending Kizaru and a marine fleet with X Drake on board to surround Vegapunk's island, while having him bring a Den Den Mushi to communicate with Vegapunk and Kuma. Saturn told them while he was not pleased with their agreement of making clone models of Kuma for the Pacifista project and to cure his daughter but he would relent under three conditions: the first being that Kuma would enlist as member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the second that Kuma would need to be modified into a human weapon under the governments control which outraged Vegapunk even more so with Kizaru defending this condition, the third would be that Kuma would have his mind and will effectively erased. The final condition angered Vegapunk as he believed that would effectively kill Kuma but Kuma himself agreed greatful that Bonney would finnaly be cured, Saturn then asked Vegapunk how long the procedure to cure the Sapphire Scales and Modify Kuma into a weapon would take, which would be about six months and a full year for Bonney to walk into sunlight again, and 2 full years for Kuma's modifications to be completed. With this in mind Saturn decided to make Bonney a hostage and place her under government surveillance along with a threat that if Kuma ever tried to contact her before his mind was fully gone or flee, then he would make Bonney a slave with Kuma accepting all the conditions only with the promise that Bonney be safely returned to Sorbet Kingdom which Saturn allowed.

Jaya Arc
A Marine came to the Room of Authority to report that Shanks had made contact with Whitebeard. Saturn agreed that a meeting between the two could be dangerous, but the Five Elders quickly moved on to talk about filling in Crocodile's place in the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Long Ring Long Land Arc
The Five Elders got a call that Marine Admiral Aokiji had gone off on his own, and Saturn asked if he had gone on a sightseeing trip.

Post-Enies Lobby Arc
The Five Elders received a report that Shanks had successfully met with Whitebeard himself, to their shock.

Summit War Saga
Sometime before the Summit War of Marineford, Saturn called Vegapunk with an order to implant a self destruct switch onto Kuma, to which he argued against as he already had at the top of the authority hierarchy in terms of control, Saturn told Vegapunk he had no right to talk back to him and he refused the scientists counter offer to allow Kuma bare minimum willpower if her to add that switch, he ordered Vegapunk once more to remove all of Kuma's will as he would be able to tell any deception if he did not carry it out due to being a fellow scientist.

Post-War Arc
The Five Elders talked about the aftermath of the Summit War of Marineford, with Saturn noting all the things that Luffy had done and saying it was appropriate that he was Garp's grandson. They then talked about Blackbeard's rise to power, and Saturn noted that he had already taken down one of the Super Rookies.

Dressrosa Arc
Fleet Admiral Sakazuki came to the Room of Authority to question the Five Elders about why they let Donquixote Doflamingo use the World Nobles' authority to misinform the entire world. The elders reminded Sakazuki of his place and reprimanded his insolence, when a Marine came in and revealed that Luffy and Trafalgar Law's alliance had taken down Doflamingo, and that their victory had been broadcast to the entire world, shocking the elders and Sakazuki.

Levely Arc


As the Levely was beginning, the Five Elders were approached by Shanks. Because of his position, they reluctantly allowed him to talk to them about a certain pirate. After meeting with Shanks, they headed toward the Empty Throne, and talked about how King Nefertari Cobra of Arabasta had requested to meet with them. Saturn then noted that with all the events going on threatening the balance, the Elders no were no longer able to prevent them. Upon reaching the Empty Throne, they knelt before its occupant Imu as they requested that Imu tell them the name of the "light" that needed to be extinguished from history.

Wano Country Arc


On the fourth day of the Levely, Saturn was part of the other Elders when they had their private audience with Cobra, who had requested the audience earlier. Saturn was listening to Cobra's recounting of the World Government's founding and his explanation about his ancestor, Nefertari Lili. When Cobra asked the Elders why her name was not mentioned anywhere anymore, Saturn replied they could not answer the question as it was too far into the history to be known anymore. When Cobra grew displeased over their secrecy, he instead asked about the Will of D., mentioning a letter Lily wrote 800 years ago. However, before either Saturn or the other Elders could answer the question, Imu, who overheard the conversation from their private room, made their way towards the Empty Throne, leaving everybody present in shock over their arrival. After Imu answered the questions Cobra had, Saturn, alongside the rest of the Elders, drew a gun, ready to assassinate Cobra due to him having seen Imu. However, before they could kill him, Sabo, who eavesdropped the entire conversation, came in to rescue Cobra, using Hiken to engulf the Elders in fire. However, Saturn, alongside the other Elders, transformed into shadowy monsters, ready to launch at Sabo and preventing him from escape. However, they failed as Cobra sacrificed himself to ensure Sabo could escape safely. The Elders', after having successfully killed Cobra, noticed someone spying on them, but were unable to capture the person.

Following the Levely's conclusion, the Five Elders were in the Room of Authority discussing Sabo and the growing issues with Vegapunk on Egghead when they received a call from Imu, who wished to test out Vegapunk's Mother Flame invention on the Lulusia Kingdom. Saturn assured Imu they would prepare everything for the Mother Flame to be deployed. Imu also gave them the command to find and seize Nefertari Vivi.



They later discussed the Raid on Onigashima, namely the orders they had given to eliminate Nico Robin and prepare to have the Marines assume control of Wano Country in the aftermath of the battle. They then discussed the potential of the Gomu Gomu no Mi, or the "Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika" awakening, and commanded Guernica to interfere in the battle between Monkey D. Luffy and Kaidou to eliminate the former, who possessed the fruit's power. Guernica sacrificed himself to allow Kaidou to inflict a deadly blow on Luffy, and when one of the Elders asked if eliminating Luffy was worth losing an agent and angering Kaidou, Saturn responded that it was preferable compared to the potential outcome of Luffy's fruit awakening. The Five Elders' attempt to eliminate Luffy proved a failure, as they later came to learn that the Gomu Gomu no Mi had indeed been awakened and Kaidou and Big Mom had both fallen in battle. Saturn wondered how they could respond to this as there would be no way to cover this up.

One Piece Film: Red
The Five Elders watched Uta's concert in Elegia from the Den Den Mushi. They discussed about Uta being the daughter of Shanks, a serious threat that was opposed to the Great Pirate Era, and how to stop her rebellion, though there was some hesitation among them to carry out her elimination as they worried, she may have been related to the Figarland Family. Also, they were very concerned about Uta's connection with Tot Musica and they could not afford to be cautious if she summoned that as a threat. The Five Elders were the only ones who did not fall asleep to Uta's powers as they already muted her songs. They were later informed by Rob Lucci about an estimate being 70% of the world's population would be pulled into Uta World.

The Five Elders, horrified, witnessed Uta turning everyone including Saint Charlos into inanimate objects. As they could not afford more casualties, they had to make a decision even if a Celestial Dragon would get caught in the crossfire. They witnessed Tot Musica, finally summoned by Uta, attacking the Marine ships. After Tot Musica was defeated by Luffy and Shanks, the Five Elders witnessed Uta releasing everyone from the Uta World through singing.

Egghead Arc
Having received their orders from Imu, the Elders then received a call from Marine Headquarters revealing they had traced Sabo to Lulusia, and the Elders took note of this stroke of fortune as the Lulusia Kingdom was completely annihilated by the Mother Flame soon afterwards.

The Five Elders then received a call by York, who was aspiring to become a Celestial Dragon, that Vegapunk was doing forbidden research on the Void Century. As a result, they decided to send a squad of CP0-Agents to assassinate Vegapunk and all his satellites, including York.

Sometime later, Saturn decided to personally accompany the fleet led by Marine Admiral Kizaru to Egghead to eliminate Dr. Vegapunk. Saturn told Kizaru that he considered the circumstances with Vegapunk to be a shame. Later, while eating, Saturn ordered Doberman to make sure no one knew of his presence and commented on the article written by Morgans about the Egghead siege by the Straw Hat Pirates. Doberman also revealed that the island's researchers had set sail prior to the Marines' arrival; upon hearing they had the ship's coordinates, Saturn ordered the evacuation ships to be sunk in case they knew too much. Doberman then told Saturn that Jewelry Bonney was on the island too, but he said she would be of no concern. Saturn then listened in on York's call to the other Five Elders in Mary Geoise and reacted with surprise to the news that she had indeed been captured by the Straw Hat Pirates.

Knowing that the Straw Hats had taken York hostage, Saturn ordered the Marines to prioritize the retrieval of York, Punk Records and the power plant required to create fuel for the Mother Flame and to consider anything else disposable in a worst-case scenario. Saturn later spoke with Kizaru about their next proceedings, which involved taking Sentomaru out and locating the Mother Flame's power plant. When Kizaru finally got in motion and retrieved the Pacifista from Sentomaru's command to attack the Sea Beast Weapons, Saturn lamented about the loss of the Sea Beasts as military assets. As the situation got more out of the Marine's control, with Vegapunk going down onto the Fabiriophase and Luffy fighting Kizaru on equal ground, Saturn grew extremely angry with the results.



While Vegapunk attempted to make his escape back up to the Labophase, Saturn decided to act. Everyone on Egghead felt an ominous presence as Saturn began his approach; Saturn issued the order for the Pacifista on the island to cease all actions, and all Marines under the rank of Commodore were ordered to look away as a Magic Circle appeared in the Fabiriophase. A large explosion appeared from the circle as Saturn began to rise from it. A Marine who was too curious to look away suddenly had his head blown off from a simple glance, as Saturn was revealed to be an Awakened Zoan Devil Fruit user. Saturn commented that it had been a very long time since he had been to the surface, and spectated the end of Luffy and Kizaru's fight, in which Kizaru managed to prevent Vegapunk from escaping. He referred to Luffy as "Nika", as Luffy passed out and fell to the ground. Saturn personally confronted Vegapunk and his allies, commenting that he expected Vegapunk to already have been dead. However, to his surprise, Jewelry Bonney suddenly grabbed a nearby sword and stabbed him in his chest, to which he glared at her.



When the nearby Marines tried to help him, he insultingly called them insects and demanded that they calm down, claiming that he could have protected himself if he wanted to. He blows Bonney off of him and then grabs her, taking out the sword in the process and healing his wound instantly. He incapacitates Sanji and orders the Marines to stand down as he believed Vegapunk had nowhere to run so they don't need to catch him. He then insulted Kizaru for taking too long to finish the job but understood that Luffy's presence was not a planned factor as he turned his gaze to the worn out emperor. When he tried to kill Luffy, Franky used Strong Right to punch Luffy out of the way in time, causing Saturn to comment on how cooperative the Straw Hats are. He stated to Luffy and Bonney that their presence was unexpected but he would very much like to see them try to escape with their current odds. He looked to Vegapunk and told him that he found his "betrayal" disappointing but thanked him for his contributions. He then asked who wanted to die first from most to least painful, as he desired for them to feel regretful for defying the World Government. He began to crush Bonney and wondered why humans do what they are forbidden to do, as she told him that he was the one who killed Kuma. Saturn, told her, though, that Kuma was born a slave as the surviving member of the now extinct Buccaneer Tribe, who he claimed committed a grave crime against the world. Saturn then held Bonney high in the air and ordered the Marines to aim for her head.

Trivia

 * Saturn is the sixth planet in the real-life Solar System, named after a Roman god. Fittingly, the Japanese term for the Five Elders (五老星) includes the character 星, which means "star" or "planet", and is included in the Japanese names of planets.
 * Interestingly, the planetary bodies which follow Saturn (Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto), all share their names or etymologies with the three Ancient Weapons in the One Piece world.
 * Saturn's surname may be based on the musician Jerry Garcia of the band Grateful Dead, who looks similar to the character.
 * Saturn's appearance may be inspired by the Italian general and patriot Giuseppe Garibaldi, one of Italy's "fathers of the fatherland". This includes his facial hair, cylindrical hat, and walking cane clutched with both hands.
 * His Devil fruit form may be based on the ushi-oni, a yōkai from Japanese folklore that has the head of an ox and a spider-like body with six legs.
