## One Piece Chapter 969, pages 12-13: The Idiot Lord - Chapter: 969 - Pages: 12-13 - Characters: Kozuki Oden, Kurozumi Orochi, Hyogoro, Okami-san, Kurozumi Higurashi, Kaido, Kin'emon, Denjiro, Ashura Doji, Kanjuro, Raizo, Kikunojo, Inuarashi ### Summary Page 12: Orochi tells Oden he wants to build multiple factories in Kuri and expects his cooperation. Oden asks the questions that have mattered for five years: "What about the boat? And what about Kaido?" Orochi answers as if the old promise means nothing: "First I'd like to ask you, shogun..." then says he wants to transform Wano into a gigantic weapon factory. He also reveals that Hyogoro refused to comply, so Orochi left him in Kaido's hands and he will probably be killed. Worse, Hyogoro of the Flower was captured in the capital, causing his men to revolt, and the result was the killing of sixteen of Hyogoro's men, including his wife. Higurashi laughs that the woman who followed Hyogoro was shot. Oden finally understands the cost of waiting. Page 13: The samurai who had endured the pain for five years on his own finally cannot bear it anymore. As expected by his family and retainers, Oden's emotions break. A river of tears streams down his face as he says only one name: "This Kaido..." Then he swears, "I will make him pay!!!" The retainers understand that the words they have waited for all this time have finally been spoken. Kin'emon and the others stand ready, shouting, "Finally you've spoken them!!" and "Now!! Witness!!" The question becomes simple and terrible: what happens next, after five years of silence?
