But this is a Battle Shonen. Rin would probably have to defeat his father at some point. And Satan is, as you said, the most powerful of the Kings of Hell. And going by normal Battle Shonen logic, each subsequent enemy has to be more powerful than the last. Once Rin has defeated Satan, he'd be strong enough that the other kings wouldn't be much of a match for him anymore.

Knowing Kato, I think if Rin could defeat Satan, the story would focus on how Rin has to deal with all the power that he has just gained.
As for either Mephisto and Lucifer being the final boss, my money is on Lucifer. Mephisto seems like he has too much fun just observing and participating in everything going on in Assiah. If he really fight the protagonists, then it's probably for jokes or to teach them something.
