Toki tries to calm him, saying, "It is fine, Oden-san, it's already healed!" but Oden thanks her through his fury: "Thank you for protecting our children!! You have endured so much pain...!!" Toki warns him, "Oden-san, you must not let a trivial thing blind your judgment. If you fight them... the enemy will retaliate!" Oden answers that she does not understand his infamy. He admits he was never good with long-winded or worthy speeches, but he understands Orochi's methods. He gathers his retainers behind him and gives a direct command: "I am fully aware of Orochi's dirty methods!! You guys!! Protect my family!! Protect Kuri!!" Page 15: Oden understands one thing clearly: "The land of Wano has fallen into the hands of scum!" Toki begs, "Please wait, Oden-sama!!" but he has already decided. To him, Orochi is "a coward, who solely relies on strong pirates," and what Orochi is doing is "abusing this country's isolationism." Oden sees that if Orochi is not stopped, "He'll turn Wano into a living hell!" The castle and the Flower Capital loom ahead while Oden charges through the land. His anger is no longer personal alone; it is the rage of a man who finally sees what has been done to his home while he was away.
