Chapter 953 - The Kozuki Clan!
Cover Story: Gotti unleashes cannon fire on a marine battleship in retaliation.
We see a scene of Oden & the Roger pirates descending from a Sky Island to the blue sea.
Oden is lifting Momo up in the air on a hot air baloon.
Oden tells Momo and Hiyori that the world is so grand such that even if you're looking from so high in the sky, you can't stop looking over at the scenery. Oden then asks Momonosuke what his favorite type of girl is as well as and then teaches momo that he should think of humans and fish-cakes and cut them down. Raleigh and Shanks object to Oden's way of bringing up Momo (lolz)
Oden returns from his journey and tells his retainers that Wano Country and Zou are bound by deep ties so they should head for Zou if shit ever hits the fan.
Hiyori plays the biwa (japanese lute) and Oden seems to be enjoying the song so he smiles.
Hiyori say the name of the song his Tsukihime (Moon Princess?) and then Oden laughs, teasing her to play the song for him at his burial. Hiyori however takes the joke badly and starts crying nonstop. Oden panics, trying to console her, explaining to her that it was just a joke.
Shortly after Oden's death, we see the red scabbards being hunted down by Orochi & Kaidou's underlings. They were intially unharmed but were able to get hold of some weapons thanks to Shinobu. Shinobu speaks to Kin and begs the question whether it's okay for her to be considered as one of Oden's vassals. Kinemon than answers saying that in this moment with all the retainers being cornered with their backs to the wall, her her heart and soul are one with them. Shinobu hears this and bursts into tears.
Inuarashi & Neko are fighting.
Inuarashi: "You might as well have killed Oden yourself, you simpleton!"
Nekomamushi: "You're are a traitor hat sympathizes with the enemy! I wouldn't be surprised of the spy Kaidou was talking about was you!!"
We see the silhouettes of the numbers appear behind them. Even with their massive builds Inu & Neko were picked off like snacks.
Kamatsu: "What the hell is that thing?!!"
Denjirou & Ashura Douji stay behind to halt their pursuers as they were too much in number.
Kaidou arrives at Oden castle, grabs momonosuke and is about to throw him down from the castle tower.
"Your father was a foolish lord, and with you dead the Kozuki clan will also come to an end" says Kaidou. Momonousuke remembers Toki's words and says "My father was a great man!!! and I a man who will carry this country on it's back one day!!!, keeping a strong front all the whilst bawling his eyes out.
Kaidou: "This dream that I'm getting told about, to think it was this young..."
Seeing Momonosuke crying and screaming out his fathers name, Kaidou decides not to throw Momo from the castle tower and then lets him go, throwing him on the ground (indoors). Kaidou having lost interest says "To think that was Oden's son...burn along with the castle". He sighs transforming into his dragon form and then leaves the castle.
Some of the scabbards have arrived at the castle, and Toki asks them come to her aside, gathering them up with the intention to send them into the future.
Kawamatsu hides his faces holding Hiyori in his arms and escapes via the waterway/canal.
Toki escapes alone from Oden castle.
The townsfol look on at the sight of the castle engulfed in flames frrom far away in fear saying "Night will soon come...Something different what we are used to". And old person mutters saying "Divine Punishment will rain down on us who failed to believe in Oden~sama and the Kouzuki clan to the end. A night that will never see the dawn of day and will continue on forever is about to begin".
Toki thinks back on a converstion she had with Oden.
*Flashback starts*
Toki"I wonder if I came here to seek you out as well from 800 years in the past"
Oden: "The day that world is turned upside down....In that case go into the future 20 years from now! What you wish for is...!"
Toki covers Oden's mouth.
Pissed Toki: "You just said something awful/mean, so no dinner for you tonight"
*Flashback ends*
Toki in thought "Oden-san, I ran away from the past. I was thinking that if I jumped into the future, someone will achieve it for me...." heads from Bakura town to Oden's castle engulfed in flames all the whilst continuously telling a mysterious tale.
