Hmmn....Oden asked Orochi for a ship so I wonder if he lowkey intended to temporarily leave wano to gather reinforcements and then comeback with them to take wano back from Kaidou. Could also be that he intended to send his family away from Wano before rebelling against Orochi & Kaidou to save his family from the aftermath (worst case scenario).
Oden also asked for Kaidou so maybe Orochi promised him an audience with Kaidou and then defaulted on it. In which case, I doubt Oden was thinking of having a heart to heart with Kaidou, so he was prolly thinking that he could slay him if he got close to him and by enduring only 5 years of suffering he could save thousands of innocent wano citizens from dying in a war against Kaidou.
Thing tho, is why did Oden agree to such a promise in the first place ^^". To Oden, his number one priority prior to returning back to wano was the opening of Wano's borders in preparation for the day joyboy appears so I'm thinking whatever Orochi said could potentially have threatened that, or maybe Orochi simply threatened Oden with the life of the wano citizens. In the narration, it was said that two of the townsfolk were shot down by arrows so that could have potentially been a warning shot from Orochi and or Kaidou to Oden.
