One Piece: Who is Saint Jaygarcia Saturn? 

The EggHead arc has introduced a lot of interesting characters in recent chapters, but none shocked fans more than the introduction of Saint Jaygarcia Saturn. Jaygarcia Saturn, commonly referred to as Saturn, is one of the Gorosei, the five elders who head the world government. He is a remarkable scientist with a flair for experimentation, earning the title Warrior God of Science and Defense. His Scientific background could be why he was mainly chosen to deal with Vegapunk, the world’s greatest scientist.

Eiichiro Oda recently revealed that the Gorosei were more than decision-makers; they were actual combatants. Each of them is referred to as the Warrior Gods of the world. Saturn is no exception; despite his scientific background, he is a strong fighter capable of handling many skilled opponents. He proves this repeatedly in the Egghead arc. Saturn also possesses the Ushi Oni Devil Fruit, making him a force to be reckoned with in One Piece.

Saturn goes with Admiral Kizaru to EggHead Island to assassinate Vegapunk. He is deeply saddened at the thought of killing Vegapunk, calling it a waste of a good brain. The saint has proved to be a worthwhile antagonist entering into the final saga of the series.

Saturn is one of the most powerful characters in One Piece, which is why he is referred to as a Warrior God. Back in the reverie, Sabo confirmed that all members of the Gorosei had possessed strange devil fruits. Saturn possesses the Ushi Oni Zoan-type Devil Fruit, giving him access to several transformations. In Japanese folklore, Ushi-Oni translates to Ox demon, with the head of an Ox and the body of a spider.

Saturn arrived on EggHead Island in his Man-Beast transformation, emanating pure haki from his body. The Haki was so strong it affected Luffy, who was engaged in battle with Kizaru at that time. Saturn’s hybrid transformation gives him the body of a spider and demon horns on his head.

In his hybrid form, Saturn can inflict damage with just a simple stare. He can deal damage to anything within his line of sight. He also can pin his opponents in place and utilises this on enemies like Sanji and Luffy. But Saturn’s most terrifying ability is his rapid regeneration.

In chapter 1108, Saturn reveals his complete spider transformation. Saturn unveiled this transformation after being repeatedly hit with Luffy’s Dawn Gatling. The form seems to be his devil fruit awakening, following Vegapunk’s revelation that Devil fruit awakenings sometimes overwhelm the user. The form drastically multiplies his power in comparison to his hybrid transformation.

In this form, Saturn can coat his entire body with venom. This venom is so lethal that it can destroy anything and everything in its path by touching it. Even the smell of the venom is also said to be toxic.

Saturn has proven to be one of the most terrifying characters in One Piece. Not only does he have exceptional powers, but he has showcased his high battle IQ. Although not a lot is known about Saturn’s full Zoan transformation, one thing this form does boast is its incredible Powers and overwhelming ability.
