The One Piece logo dominates the top of the page above the chapter title "CHAPTER 960: KOZUKI ODEN TAKES THE STAGE". Below, a lively town scene unfolds with Capone Bege in a dark coat and hat gesturing with a wide grin while holding a framed picture. Beside him stands a tall blonde woman in a large sun hat, striped dress, and sunglasses, smiling confidently. A shorter blonde woman in a revealing polka-dot outfit and cape walks between them. A thought bubble in the upper left shows two figures viewed from behind. Background buildings, a checkered flag, and distant characters fill the scene. At the bottom, text reads: "GANG" BEGE'S "OH MY FAMILY" VOL 10: "THE GRAND SEARCH FOR LOLA!!!" The page is signed EIICHIRO ODA.

A sweeping view of a grand, flourishing forest fills the page with a distant pagoda visible among the trees. Narration states: "GRAND, FLOURISHING FOREST." and "THIS AREA IS KNOWN FOR ITS... NOT A SINGLE FACTORY IN SIGHT..." Smaller panels show a river with boats, butterflies, frogs, and lush vegetation. Text reads: "DUE TO THE NEARBY CLEAR RIVERS AND THE SPARKLING SEA. THE VEGETATION THRIVES..." A final panel depicts a deer by a stream with fish jumping into a basket as a person fishes. Narration continues: "A TALE ABOUT WHEN WANO WAS BRIMMING WITH LIFE... THIS IS A TALE FROM THE PAST..." A voice exclaims, "I CAUGHT ONE!!" with sound effects like "ベンッ" and "んっ!!!" and "キョロロロ".

At the Mountain Pass Tea House, Tsurujo the poster girl stands in a plaid kimono. A group discusses recent events. Voices exclaim: "INDEED. WE FLED FROM IT AND ENDED UP HERE!!" "THE MOUNTAIN MOVED!I" "THE MOUNTAIN WAS MOVING....!!" "IT WAS EVEN GROWLING!!" "I AM TELLING THE TRUTH!! I SWEAR IT!! I SAW IT WITH MY OWN TWO EYES!!" An old man with a staff laughs, "DEHEHE, NOTHING GETS PAST YOU, O-TSURU~!" while another says, "HUH....!I" and "THE THREE OF YOU ARE QUITE CHIPPER, CONSIDERING THE CIRCUMSTANCES... FUFUFU..." Tsurujo replies, "PERHAPS YOU ENCOUNTERED A MOUNTAIN GODI" Further dialogue includes: "WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO CAPTURE AN ELUSIVE CREATURE!!!" "THE TRUTH IS..." "CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET FOR USI" "IT TOOK US A WHOLE YEAR!!" A sign reads "MOUNTAIN PASS TEA HOUSE POSTER GIRL TSURUJO".

A woman with a rose in her hair gasps in shock, "HUH!I A PIECE OF WHITE GOLD!I" Nearby, a man in a wide hat and scarf grins widely while holding a small white boar in a box, declaring, "IF WE TAKE THIS LITTLE GUY TO THE CAPITAL, WE CAN TRADE HIM IN FOR ONE WHOLE PIECE OF WHITE GOLD!!" A masked figure and a wild-haired man lean in excitedly, one saying, "WOW, WHAT A BEAUTIFUL BOAR!! IT'S SKIN IS SNOW WHITE!" and the other urging, "TAKE A LOOK AT IT!!" The woman adds, "YOU COULD BUY A GIANT MANSION WITH THAT KIND OF MONEY!" The group discusses the rare white boar, noting it is considered a herald of the gods and that Boss Kurokama has sought one for years. A large man laughs heartily, "DAHAHAHA!! CUTE STORY AND ALL, BUT THIS IS JUST AN EXOTIC ANIMAL!!" In the next scene, a spiky-haired man reacts with surprise and anger, "ガッ!!" while the woman looks concerned, thinking, "AH... HANG ON A MOMENT..." as a metallic "CLANG" sounds nearby.

Kin'emon is violently slammed to the ground by a massive hand, screaming, "OW, OW, OW, OW, OWWWWWW!! STOP IT, TSURUJO!! THINK OF OUR CHILDHOOD FRIENDSHIP!" Tsurujo, riding atop him, yells, "DID YOU STEAL MONEY FROM MY WALLET AGAIN!I" Kin'emon pleads desperately while being crushed. In the next panels, Kin'emon threatens, "I WILL RIP OUT YOUR ORGANS AND SELL THEM TO RECLAIM YOUR DEBT!" and warns, "IF YOU EVER TOUCH MY MONEY AGAIN..." Tsurujo retorts about his gambling, "HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I LOANED YOU MONEY NOW!I" and "YOUR 'BIG BROS'!I I BET THEY GAMBLED THEIR MONEY AWAY!!" while Kin'emon claims his brothers have money issues. Later, after a meal, someone says, "...UH, THANKS FOR THE MEAL, O-TSURU! THE MONEY IS ON THE TABLE..." as Kin'emon threatens, "IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY ME BACK... THEN I WILL STRIP YOU OF ALL YOUR BELONGINGS AS REPAYMENT!!"

A large bear-like creature growls, "...I REMEMBER YOU FROM EARLIER... YOU BASTARD...!!" while Kin'emon is struck with heavy blows, "ズババババン!!" and cries out in pain. Kin'emon, now shirtless with a sword, stands triumphantly over the defeated creature, laughing, "WAHA HAHA!!" He boasts, "OF COURSE I WOULD OVERHEAR YOU! THIS BOAR IS WORTH ONE PIECE OF WHITE GOLD, RIGHT!I" and "MY LUCK HAS FINALLY TURNED AROUND!! I HAVE HIT THE JACKPOT!!" A sign labels him "A YAKUZA THUG FROM THE CAPITAL KIN'EMON". In the final panels, the white boar is captured in a sack as Kin'emon demands, "HAND OVER YOUR CLOTHES!! AND YOUR MONEY, TOO!!" while sneezing, "ACHOO!!" and muttering, "UGH..." He thinks, "ONCE I HAND THIS OVER TO BOSS KUROKOMA, I WILL BE A..."

Narration and dialogue discuss Lord Oden's repeated failed attempts to leave Wano illegally, noting his surprising survival and lack of sailing aptitude. A flashback shows young Kozuki Oden as a child, with the caption "THE SHOGUN OF WANO KOZUKI SUKIYAKI (ODEN'S FATHER)". Observers recount his wild youth: by age four he crushed a boulder and a bear; by age two he caught rabbits bare-handed; by age six he roamed the red-light district; by age eight he got drunk and fought gamblers; by age nine he was blacklisted from yakuza casinos. The narration states, "HE REALLY HAS LIVED QUITE THE EVENTFUL LIFE..."

Narration recounts young Kozuki Oden's wild youth: It all culminated when he was captured at age 10, after he nearly killed someone...!!! He retaliated by setting their casino on fire... He climbed the ranks at the quarry until he was running the place!! He was sentenced to hard labour in the stone quarry... where he showed off more of his unique talents!! He truly is a member of the Kozuki family!! But that only led to the capital getting flooded, so his capture was ordered. The wells had dried up, and countless people were suffering, so he diverted a river straight into the capital. However, Lord Oden just followed that water route and attempted to escape out to sea. But in the end, that voyage was short lived!! After that, his attitude changed significantly... When he was 14 years old, the capital was experiencing a prolonged drought!!

The work of the devil......and eventually formed a harem. Every night, he would kidnap women from the capital... Then, at age 15, while he was in hiding, he got a job at a temple deep in the mountains. Even though the girls technically chose to stay of their own free will... That event came to be known as the Harem Revolt!! Lord Oden stood his ground and eagerly took them on!! Their parents, spouses and even powerful samurai attempted to rescue them!! Their loved ones were enraged!! Even the Hyougoro family got dragged into the fray after failing to prevent the fighting!!...Do not say another word. Just deliver this to Oden for me... Yet he still causes trouble on a daily basis. Of course, Lord Oden is 18 now... That is quite enough...!! Lord Oden's victims number in the...

He went that way!! Capture Kin'emon!! This is the day you finally get caught!! I am not lying!! Just let me go to the Kurokoma family's mansion!!! I was just trying to cash in on a bounty!!! Stop lying, you swindler!! H-H-H-H-Hold on a second!!...Is what I would normally say, but... In a one-on-one fight, none of you would stand a chance!! Catch him and flay him alive!! Kin'emonI...Oh. Haha, you must be joking!!! We will bring him in right now!!! The "Chivalrous Knight" of the capital Hyougoro the Flower. That kid stole our money...

So... if you add the extra 30 pieces of silver I spent when I bought this pot... Sure, no problem with that. Yeah, but I can trade this pot back in for 30 pieces of silver, rightI The bigger ones are worth 60 pieces of silver, though. You bought the wrong pot!I To the value of trading it in now, it should be worth 60 pieces of silver! So I should be able to get a big one! I suppose you are right!!! Here you go!! Please come again!! The brat got a discount just like that!! What a gullible store owner...! Hey, hey... Huff huff... Hee hee... An orphan from the capital Denjiro. HmI Hey!! Denjiro!!

Kozuki Oden sits before a massive boiling pot set over a funeral pyre, scarf tied around his head, furiously slurping and chewing with wild abandon. Steam and bubbles rise as he devours the contents. Onlookers cry out in horror: "THIS IS REALLY... HUFF... HUFF... PUFF... PUFF...", "THE STUFF!! HUFF... PUFF... FOOOH!!", "I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, BUT GET OFF OF MY FATHER!!", and "THIS IS AN INSULT TO HIS MEMORY!! SOB SOB". A large sign reads "HEIR TO THE SHOGUNATE OF WANO KOZUKI ODEN". Someone shouts "LORD ODEN!!!" while Oden puffs and gulps loudly. In the side panels, a man with a topknot yells "SIR SAMURAI, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT HIM!!" at the Flower Capital-Crematorium. A young voice cries "GRANDPA KATSUZO0000!!!" as an older samurai watches with a stern expression. Narration notes: "I KNOW THIS IS ODD FOR A FUNERAL, BUT..." and "WELL, JUST LOOK OVER THERE!!! HE IS USING THE FIRE THAT BURNT MY FATHER'S BODY TO BOIL SOME ODEN!!!*" followed by "AFTER CREMATION, WE WERE GOING TO COLLECT THE ASHES, BUT THEN...". Smaller panels show close-ups of Oden's intense eating, a skull on the ground, and distant figures reacting near the crematorium building.

Oden continues devouring the pot with massive slurps and chomps, his face buried in the food as bubbles and splashes fly. Nearby, the topknotted samurai chews thoughtfully while women watch in shock. Oden suddenly stands, declaring "THE NEXT TIME... WE DRINK TOGETHER, KATSUZO, IT WILL BE IN THE AFTERLIFE....SEE YA!!" as he drops his gourd with a "PLONK". He wipes his mouth with a loud "PHEWWW!!!" and strides away, swords at his side. A man with wild hair protests "HE IS NOT ONE FOR DETAILED EXPLANATIONS!!" while another offers "TO THE FAMILY. MY CONDOLENCES...". Oden turns back with a fierce grin and shouts "NOW, THEN..." as large sound effects "ベベ ら!!" erupt around him. The crematorium gate labeled "KATSUZO" stands in the background amid scattered onlookers.

Oden's gourd clangs to the ground with "CLANG...♪" as shocked citizens react: "THIS MEANS TROUBLE!! HIDE YOUR WIVES AND DAUGHTERS!", "WHAT IS WITH THAT GUYI HE IS SO... COOL...", and "HUH... IS THAT HOW IT IS!I". Women and children stare in awe and fear. Oden walks through the streets as a fire bell rings nonstop. A voice wonders "...ANYWAY, WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!I NO ONE IS AVOIDING ME LIKE THEY USUALLY DO." and notes "THE FIRE BELL HAS BEEN RINGING NONSTOP... BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE NO FIRE NEARBY...I". Townspeople discuss the disturbance. In the distance, a tall tower and buildings are visible. A man in a headband questions "THAN A MERE FIRE... IT IS BIGGER..." while another figure points upward asking "HEY, IS IT A BIG FIRE!I". SFX: "CLANG CLANG CLANG!" echoes through the capital.

Panic erupts across the Flower Capital as a colossal white boar rampages through the streets, smashing buildings and sending crowds fleeing. Citizens scream "WE ARE GOING TO BE EATEN ALIVE!! THERE ARE ALREADY MANY VICTIMS!!!", "EVACUATE THE CAPITAL!!!", and "A MOUNTAIN GOOOOOOD!!! A REAL MOUNTAIN GOD!". Oden stands amid the chaos, eyes wide, demanding "I WANT YOU TO GIVE ME THAT BOAR!!" while a voice identifies it as "KO...KO-KO-KO-KOZUKI ODEN!!!I". Nearby figures argue: "YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE BROUGHT THAT WITH YOU!!!", "HOW COULD YOU NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS, KIN'EMON!I", "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, DENJIROI", "TO CRUSH THE HYOUGORO FAMILY! BOSS KOROKOMA PROBABLY WANTED TO USE IT...". Narration explains the creature: "ACCORDING TO THE ANCIENT TEXTS, A FULL-GROWN WHITE BOAR IS THE SIZE OF A MOUNTAIN!! MANY REFER TO THEM AS MOUNTAIN GODS!" and "IT IS SAID THAT HUNDREDS OF YEARS AGO, A WHOLE REGION WAS ANNIHILATED IN A SINGLE NIGHT." Oden grins fiercely as the boar rampages on. The page ends with the One Piece logo and "CH960 /END".
