## One Piece Chapter 965, pages 9-10: The Kurozumi Plot - Chapter: 965 - Pages: 9-10 - Characters: Kurozumi Orochi, Kurozumi Higurashi, Kozuki Sukiyaki ### Summary Page 9: The old woman asks if Orochi knows his grandfather's story. She says his grandfather did not commit an ordinary crime: he was killed by the Kozuki clan. The previous Kozuki shogun had no heir, so the five daimyo families that served the Kozuki grew restless. The old woman explains that those at the top rewrite the law as they see fit and that crimes cease to be crimes. The daimyo families wondered who the next shogun would be and each prepared quietly to take the throne. Orochi's grandfather made his preparations in secret. Page 10: The old woman describes the Kurozumi plot's failure. Preparations were made to poison every last one of the crafty daimyo standing in the way, and one after another the shogun's rivals complained of internal strife and disappeared. The sight worried the shogun, and eventually he fell ill too. The plan was nearly complete when the world itself came within reach, but then Sukiyaki Kozuki was born as an heir. The old woman curses Sukiyaki because the Kurozumi were unable to take over Wano once the plan was revealed. She tells Orochi that his grandfather was forced to commit hara-kiri and that his house was disbanded, its lands, castle, and status stolen.
