## One Piece Chapter 963, pages 13-14: Becoming Samurai - Chapter: 963 - Pages: 13-14 - Characters: Edward Newgate, Kozuki Oden, Marco, Jozu ### Summary 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...!!" Page 14: Oden comes crashing toward the Whitebeard Pirates with pure excitement. He laughs, "Ha ha!!!" and calls out, "I have been waiting for you!!" Whitebeard congratulates the crew for surviving the terrible weather and the waterfall, but immediately senses danger: "This doesn't look good." Oden does not hesitate. He charges at Whitebeard, announcing, "My name is Kozuki Oden!!! We may not know each other, but...!! I want you to let me... join your crew!!" Whitebeard blocks the attack and recognizes the force behind it. The chapter ends with Oden's direct challenge to the outside world standing in front of him.
