I don't think Kaato and Jobin are going to merge. An antagonist half man, half woman would be bizarre. Not the "Araki" type of bizarre... (maybe the "Steven Universe" type of bizarre).

Never assume that anything is too bizarre fo Araki. On the topic, since most of the smuggling group is already defeated, i don't think, that they going to stay in Morioh. We already have "main character's mother is sick and only cure is in remote location" situation, so i think it's going to go full Stardust Crusaders in the second half - grafted branch will be destroyed\taken away and Gappy and the crew will journey to New Guinea for the fruits, while confronting Jobin\Kaato\whoever main antagonist will be (in Part 4 we hasn't seen main antagonist untill 70+ chapters in and part 8 seem to follow same pattern) and his stand-using allies. Also since Jobin and Kaato is part of the family, it's possible, that Higashikata family will be divided in two opposing parts - one for the Josuke and one for the Jobin.
