The thing is that we just know one ability of Toki power, but she could have so much more abilities, Oda could explain such a move later.
Let be honest the Sn at the rooftop aren´t looking good to win against Kaido so far, they need help for sure. And if we even though the point of Kaido having awakening... It make it almost impossible.
Oda rush Kaido vs Oden, as he don´t want to spoil much about their power, it could be explaiin why he do it in chapter 970.
This time without tricks and a fair battle where Kaido win, but Oden nerf him hard enough for the Sn to win.
That is at least my though.
Oda wouldn't need to nerf Oden more. He doesn't have his best swords which is alr quite bad and we are speaking about an Oden that fought a Kaido 20 years younger that is probably weaker than the current Kaido by a lot.
 
But we still have the same problem. One piece is about inherited will. Right now the will of Oden to destroy Kaido. Bringing Oden back in the fight would throw the will stuff to the garbage.

Cool theory but I don't see that happening mostly because Luffy went to check the scabbards when he reached the top. Of the scabbards were dead Luffy would've said something.
LOL, I don't think it will happen too SIMPLY because Bau Huang was warning that someone was there... so if that was soul, and they are dead... she would not notice someone in the room healing them.... so the theory is ALREADY debunked... I'm just saying what would be really nice... but I really expect them healthy and alive hahaha, which leaves it to my obvious vote, it's real Oden/Toki with time travel after surviving execution as MUCH as people hate that scenario LOL

You're putting too much faith in the 20 years created big gap between them LOL... I expect Oda to never stop wanking Oden honestly hahaha

I don’t really agree about oden needing to be pivotal in the fight or the sn’s not having a chance to win. The very purpose of this arc is to establish Luffy as solidly yonko level.

Things are going to look dire, but eventually the alliance will win through their own efforts. If this is really oden, he’ll serve some important purpose, but adding combat power to the alliance doesn’t seem like the one to me.

Otherwise I agree that Oda hid the extent of the oden vs kaido fight, and Toki’s fruit definitely can do more than we’ve seen.
 
Voted real Oden....
My most likely scenario is he survived the execution by some method and he's just there by leaping into future with Toki!

A very great twist would be it's really Oden but he's not alive... and Scabbards are actually dead so now they can see him in afterlife... and Oda can actually write a very emotional dialog... for example a nice scenario would be like:

- They all jump on Oden hugging him...etc... then they see Toki... and they have an extatic dialog with each other... then Oden tells them to follow him... they take a shortcut to the rooftop, while Oda throws a small hint that some soldiers passed and they did not see them.... Some of scabbards get skeptical about it...

They reach the rooftop, see Kaido/Big Mom vs Supernova

Kinemon and co say they will get help Mugiwara... but then Oden stops them, he tells them "you've done enough, I'm proud of you"... then we hear someone who's sitting on the corner watching the fight say "oh, so you've come to join... huh"
This is actually Yasui!

Scabbards are confused... what's happening, Yasui sama is alive? But we need to help Mugiwara too... Oden tells them that they are souls now, dead wandering... and also says "I am really proud of you guys for bringing such a group, but let's leave it up to them"

Toki picks a shamisan, starts to play the music of war
We see a figure with Sihlouette but his hair looks like "Shimutsuki Ryuuma" who also is watching the battle on the sides...

Oden: "now, let's see how this war will unfold" while smiling while ending that act on the biggest of high notes!

-Red Scabbards dead
- confirming Toki and Oden to be dead
- Ryuuma sihlouette is there, his flashback is coming soon while watching Zoro's fight.
- End of act 3
I know it's impossible to happen but this sounds so beautiful and hype!
 
Chapter 912 Tenguyama Hitetsu says that he's waiting for someone.

chapter 972 Toki says Oden that he's not going to die while smiling carefree. She also says Oden to look ahead 20 years.

chapter 984 Oda introduces the first fake Oden AKA Yamato.

chapter 993 Kaido says to the scabbards that he'd let them kill him but they're not Oden.

chapter 1003 Oda hints/foreshadows that another character is going to join the fight in rooftop and save the Supernovas.

Chapter 1004 we see a silhouette of a woman that resembles lady Toki in the same room as the scabbards themselves.


chapter 1006 Hoyagoro talks to Oden in his head wondering what would have happened if they joined forces against Kaido.

and finally in chapter 1007 Oden appears in front of the scabbards with new pair of blades.

As you can see, all this chapters are interconnected with the idea of a new character (whether Oden or not) appearing in Wano. Also, the only way Oden would have gotten those new blades would be from Hitetsu who happens to be a blacksmith, who was also waiting for someone. In 2017 year interview Oda said that he will introduce a lurking legend in Wano.

If it's Kanjuro Imma gonna be pissed. :cheers:

If it has to be a fake I hope Oda comes off with something original.
Nah, it's not Kanjuro. We are all here debating whether he's real or fake but I'm sure Oda will come up with something that's inbetween. Real and Fake at the same time. Maybe something to do with souls and spirits that's inspired from japanese folklore.

I don't see the problem if Oden survived the execution and got sent in the future because Kaido said that whatever the way his body is already dead. So in that case, he only have a handful of time remaining due to his will power. Anyway im going with this option too, but Oden's appearance must be temporary to be acceptable i think.

he also said the lurking legend was "the greatest enemy the straw hats have faced" so is Oden actually evil? lol

Shit, you're right.

Toki's time power hasn't really been well expanded on apart from just time traveling, and so there could be more to her time ability than just time-traveling stuff. So let's assume Oden is real here, and looked as if he had never touched boiling oil in his entire life. So what could possibly have happened?

1) As Toki could only time travel to the future, she couldn't go to the past to try and reverse Oden's outcome... but what if her fruit's awakening could allow her to do that??... But even so, won't that just mean everyone just ended up forgetting Oden's sacrifice? So this one's definitely out.

:kuzanope:

2) Could it be possible that Toki could manipulate the effects of time on an individual? So let's say Oden got barbecued at 11:00 am... and Toki could reverse what happened to Oden's body, by reversing the body to what it was at say.. 10:00 am.. the time before Oden got boiled.

And then they together went through time 20 years into the future..

But this also opens a whole other set of questions: was Oden still alive when Toki found him, or was he dead? If he was dead, then Toki might end up ruining this arc as a whole, as everyone would just be revived in the end.. If he was alive, then that ruins Oden's sacrifice, but I guess it's already ruined now.


I haven't thought any of this through, tbh...
But 2 seems to be the only thing I could think of.

This would be amazing, but ironically dark for OP as beautiful as it is. If there was a level of consistency with death in the series (Pell, Pagaya, some Enies Lobby deaths, etc), it would be super believable.

Unfortunately, the fact that Jack is aiming to kill them after finding they are alive and the fact that Bao Huang knows they were, plus seeing a 10th person there supports that the are alive

Or it’s Gyukimaru, the guy who collects swords

Onimaru cosplaying Oden out of nowhere and the same for Hyori would be actually cringe and meaningless.
@Isaac Netero
Oden being alive out of nowhere would actually be the cringiest and most meaningless
