The iron box contained not only the toys that Momonosuke often played with when he was a child, but also the hairpins of Mrs. Toki and the rouge water that Kikunojo often used. These were Momonosuke's favorite things when he was alive. "Could it be that... someone stole my things while I was away from Kuri?" "It's very possible. Momoko will be fine." After deceiving himself, Kozuki Oden felt much better and walked slowly towards Oden Castle. From a distance, he could see two old women looking at him with disdain, chattering about some important information. "Tsk..."

"Look, the silly prince is back. I heard that his biological son was lost by his retainer Kikunosuke!"

"What do you mean lost? Didn't Ashura Douji destroy all the samurai stationed in Kuri by General Orochi?"

"Those samurai said it themselves that they accidentally killed the lost Prince Momonosuke."

"The silly prince is in the Flower Capital. General Orochi, who killed his own son, is sitting in the general's mansion. He doesn't dare to take revenge and dances naked every day."

"If it weren't for the destruction of the Bell Queen, the news from the Flower Capital would have reached Kuri. We, including Lady Toki, would have been kept in the dark! We thought the silly prince was busy dealing with Kaido!"

The two old women kept talking, spitting like raindrops, and were forced to run away with their tails between their legs by Kozuki Oden.

Walking into the city, Kozuki Oden was looked at with contempt by people on both sides of the street.

Kozuki Oden's mentality exploded instantly. He didn't know what was going on. Why did everyone suddenly have such a big malice towards him?

But it didn't matter. As long as his wife, children and retainers were loyal to him, everything was fine.

As soon as Kozuki Oden stepped into his own daimyo's mansion, the dog guarding the yard barked several times to express his unwelcome.

Kin'emon, who was the most loyal to him, greeted him with tears in his eyes when he saw Oden coming back.

"Lord Oden, a lot of things happened during your absence!"

"At first, we gave the young master to Kikunojo to look after. I didn't expect Kikunojo to lose the young master for three months without telling us."

"It was only after you left that Madam Toki discovered that the young master was missing and called Kikunojo to her. Only then did we know that he had lost the young master."

"We searched everywhere and found the men of that guy Orochi in Kuri. From them, we learned that the young master had...had...sigh."

As he spoke, Kin'emon cried heartbreakingly and pretended to commit seppuku in front of Kozuki Oden.

Kozuki Oden was unhappy to begin with, and now he was even more unhappy after hearing this news. He first stopped Kin'emon.

"How hateful!"

"Kurozumi Orochi is so hateful!"

Then he gritted his teeth and said.

He hated Kurozumi Orochi and himself in his heart.

If he wasn't so lustful, Momonosuke wouldn't be so lustful, and wouldn't let go of Kikunojo who didn't dare to take responsibility, then this tragedy wouldn't have happened.

But in the end, the blame should be on the lustful genes of the Kozuki family.

"Call Kikunojo over, I want to blame him in person!"

"I blame him not because of Momonosuke, but because a real samurai must bravely take responsibility for his mistakes!"

"Kikunojo looks like he's no longer a qualified samurai!"

Kozuki Oden said angrily.

"Yes!" Kin'emon wiped the tears from his face and gave a firm reply.

Soon, the haggard Kikunojo was dragged and dragged by Kin'emon to Kozuki Oden.

"Your Highness Oden, I have been blamed for you for so long, and now you are finally back." Kikunojo thought silently in his heart.

Momonosuke was lost by "Oden" himself, and Kikunosuke took all the responsibility on his shoulders in order not to destroy the glorious image of Kozuki Oden in everyone's mind and for the harmony between Oden and Lady Toki.

Kikunosuke thought he was great, and he was indeed great.

But he actually took the blame for losing Momonosuke for Zero who was disguised as Kozuki Oden.

Kikunosuke didn't know that "Oden" was pretended by Zero, so from Kikunosuke's perspective, Oden who lost Momonosuke should thank him.

As a result, Kozuki Oden scolded Kikunosuke, saying that he had no samurai spirit and was no longer

Unworthy of being a retainer of the Kozuki family.

This severe rebuke directly caused the already aggrieved Kikunosuke to explode in an instant.

The great image of Kozuki Oden in his mind was gone, and he ran away with a sad face.

Mrs. Toki watched this scene from a distance through the window in the bedroom. Because she didn't know whether this Oden was pretended by someone else, she didn't dare to go out.

She also believed that Kojuro lost Momonosuke, but she was sensible and didn't blame Kojuro, but hated Kurozumi Orochi who killed Momonosuke.

As long as she could kill Kurozumi Orochi with her own hands, she would not hesitate to pay any price.

"Shishi..."

Kozuki Oden looked at Tianyue Toki from a distance with that cold look in his eyes, and his heart was broken.

But he was relieved soon after thinking about it carefully. Tianyue Toki had never had a comfortable day after being tricked by him.

First, he made Toki, a weak woman, live in fear and pain every day in the Whitebeard Pirates. Then, in order to pursue his dream, he abandoned Toki and her mother to the Wano Country, which was poisoned by Kaido and Orochi, and boarded Roger's ship regardless of anything.

Finally, after returning to his country, he danced naked every day, not only failed to give any help to Toki and the children, but also made them ridiculed by others.

Kozuki Oden now realized that he was not only lustful, but also incompetent.

After discovering what kind of person he was, Kozuki Oden decided to recall the contents of the diary he wrote every day to numb himself.

He was glorified in it as a real hero.

A hero who was willing to leave his wife and children to save the people, and a hero who was willing to dance on the street to save Wano Country.

Thinking about it, Kozuki Oden really believed it!

"Hmph! A true hero silently endures hardships that ordinary people cannot endure just to protect all the people of Wano Country."

"With a loyal and reliable Kanjuro, a martial arts master like Kin'emon, and a strategic planner like Ashura Douji... why worry about not winning this battle?"

"Now... let the heroes use their last blood to compose a soul-stirring epic!"

After Kozuki Oden wrote this in his diary, he took the last seven people who were willing to follow him, Ashura Douji, Kin'emon, Denjiro, Raizo, Inuarashi, Kawamatsu, and Cat Viper, and set off to Onigashima to seek revenge on the Beasts Pirates.
