## One Piece Chapter 961, pages 14-15: The Mountain God Incident - Chapter: 961 - Pages: 14-15 - Characters: Kozuki Oden, Kinemon, Tsurujo, Denjiro, Shimotsuki Yasuie, Kurozumi Orochi ### Summary Page 14: After Oden leaves, O-Tsuru notices Kinemon crying and asks, "Are you crying, Kin-chan?" He insists, "Of course not!!" but sobs, "O-Tsuru... That man..." and declares, "I would happily die for someone like him!!" Denjiro feels the same fire, shouting, "I feel the same way!!" and "He inspired me first!!" He runs after Oden, crying, "The emotional weight is different!! I will be his first follower!!" while Kinemon yells, "Hey, wait up, Denjiro!!" The narration explains that at that moment, the men suppressed their desire to follow Oden, and that the balance of the capital tilted in more ways than one. Oden himself admits, "I envy their free spirits...!! I want to go with them, too!!" The scene then moves to Wano's Hakumai region, where attendants welcome him: "Welcome, welcome, Lord Oden!! It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance!! Lord Yasuie has been looking forward to your arrival!!" Oden snaps back, "Stop lying!! No way he would be happy to see me!!" Page 15: In Hakumai, Oden meets the daimyo Shimotsuki Yasuie. Yasuie greets him roughly rather than warmly: "You are correct!! I would not... Get excited over an exiled fool from the capital!!" He asks, "What do you want, Oden?!" and notices, "And you even brought some henchmen with you?" A servant throws himself across a puddle and calls, "All right, please step over me to cross the puddle!!" Another panics, "Ah!! Please hold on, there is a puddle!!" Oden points at the strange servant and asks, "Hey, Uncle!! What is with this creepy weirdo?!" Yasuie tells him, "Do not be so rude!! ...He is my newest servant." The man introduces himself with a strained smile: "My name is Orochi, I am but a humble servant." He adds, "Heh heh!! I was taken in by Lord Yasuie." The chapter ends by naming him Kurozumi Orochi and calling it "a fateful meeting."
