Are the Five Elders Real Devils?
Saturn’s speech in Chapter 1095 about how humans always do what they are not told to do is similar to Kaido’s speech about humans never giving up on hope, but later he reveals to Yamato that she is an ONI (demon).

Kaido speaking about humans

It makes sense for Kaido to talk about humans this way, especially if it’s later revealed in the story that he doesn’t belong to the human race. If Kaido is from a different race, his words may reflect his viewpoint and perception of humans as a separate species. What eventually happened is clear.

The reference to Saturn making this separation may indicate that he belongs to a different species. What if he is a real devil? It’s an interesting thought that popped into my head after seeing this, and it almost makes sense. There are supposedly devils in One Piece as devil fruits are inhabited by the souls of devils, so what if some came to the earthly plane?

The D. Clan is also referred to as devils themselves through the World Government and the Five Elders propaganda, which could just be an ironic front to hide their true identity. What reason they would have to come to this plane, I don’t really know, other then supposing it would have something to do with people eating the souls of devils in the fruits, which are just appearing due to the want to do something, like control fire. And Saturn literally looks like some sort of demonic figure.
