They both have purple hair, and Sabios's Leitmotif becomes Purple Eyes' when he gains the Golden Armor. Also, Purple Eyes states just before taking the armor that he did a little more research, and discovered something. He then somehow takes all of the Golden armor at once, and states that it chose him. This would suggest that he discovered his own connection to the maker of the Golden Armor, and it chose him for his blood ties. Not to mention he seems to know just what he's doing when he uses it, and we know that the memories of the Steelhead affect the Pinchers wearing their armor. Could Sabios be helping out his descendant?
