I really enjoyed this chapter. I love how this arc gives us so many new pieces of knowledge of the one piece world.

Kizaru got brained.
So Saturn is a Spider/Bull demon? There's definitely something different about him compared to other devil fruits with the magic circle being used to summon him
He seems to be this one
"The Ushi-Oni (็้ฌผ, Ox Oni (demon)), or gyลซki, is a yลkai from the folklore of western Japan.[1] The folklore describes more than one kind of ushi-oni, but the depiction of a bovine-headed monster occurs in most. Ushi-oni generally appear on beaches and attack people who walk there." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ushi-oni
So highly likely all the Elders are some mythological ancient gods and demons with their awakened fruits.
Loved this chapter. Luffy can keep up with an admiral only for one of the 5 elders to show up in time to ruin his fun. Wondering if we are getting a 5ES flashback with Nika soon
This chapter was wild. That whole magic circle summoning feels so crazy in the One Piece verse. I had forgotten that apparently during the timeskip there was a cover story or something where Brook was summoned with a magic circle too, but there wasn't much focus on it and it was used mostly as a gag. So it could be magic is a thing in the One Piece world.
The Elders are looking straight up elderitch now between their silhouettes when facing Sabo and now Saturn looking like a yokai. Definitely an interesting twist.
I'm really curious if Saturn actually has a devil fruit. No Oda box to confirm one, and unless it's a mythical zoan we havent seen anything like the magic circle. I know this doesnt prove anything, but it's fun to think about.
Are Zoro and Lucci going to have to try to tag team Saturn until Luffy recharges? Maybe Vega Punk has something hidden up his sleeve to save his ass? Hope 1095 isn't a flashback lol
Maybe that ancient robot is actually strong ... once it has finished it's windows 95 boot up sequence

Gotta appreciate that Oda gives us this crazy demonic beast power and then also the Ride-Ride fruit or whatever the hell that old woman had in the same chapter lol. Always love how even in the most serious moments the goofiness of One Piece is never too far away.
Who are the people on the left on Zoro's spread?
