Someone cries, "Look! The party from Kuri has arrived!" Another asks, "Oh my!! What? They are... his samurai...?" The crowd wonders whether Oden's retainers were always so dignified, and some think it almost looks like a shogun's procession. Their majestic and dignified appearance takes the onlookers' breath away. At the castle, Oden's father is moved too: "Yo, Dad!!" Oden calls, and Sukiyaki answers, "Oden!! You have grown into a fine man, indeed!!" Oden says, "If I have become a fine man, it is thanks to you... But I am not sure I have changed one bit." Oden visits after hearing his father has fallen ill, and when he sees Sukiyaki's energy, his worries disappear. The narration says this was the last time the two would ever speak. Page 13: That same year, at Kuri's Port Itachi, a pirate ship has somehow climbed the waterfall and reached Wano. The cargo hold is flooded and the provisions are as good as gone, so the crew expects the repairs to take a week. Someone senses other humans nearby, while others are baffled: "So why is there a sea and an island up here...!?" A pirate says they climbed the waterfall, though not everyone seems sure how. The captain is Edward Newgate of the Whitebeard Pirates. News reaches Kuri Castle that Lord Oden has gone to the coast. His retainers hear that a pirate ship has been spotted at Port Itachi and panic, saying its crew must be strong and that Oden might chase them off. But as something incredible approaches, they shout, "Hey, all of you... stand back...!!"
