Divine Intervention!
Facing his son Momonosuke's cries, Kōzuki Oden in the boiling pot had no comforting thoughts.
"You all stay quiet on the wooden planks, this is the lord's command!"
As his words fell, Kōzuki Oden reached out with both hands and grabbed the edge of the execution platform, using tremendous force to tear off the wooden planks from the platform, lifting them high above his head. On the wooden planks above him were all of his retainers and Momonosuke.
"Lord Oden, please stop!"
"Wrong, it should be us who support you!"
"Sob, Lord Oden, my Lord Oden."
"Lord Oden!"
"Lord Oden!"
"Everyone, be quiet, this is Lord Oden's command, do you dare to defy the lord's orders?"
Kinemon tearfully spoke, surrounded by a group of warriors in the center.
"But..."
Kanjuro wanted to say something.
"There are no buts! Don't you realize that Lord Oden intends to use his life to exchange for yours!? Do you want to betray Lord Oden?"
Lady Toki interrupted Kanjuro's words and spoke to the surrounding Kozuki retainers.
Hearing Lady Toki's words, all the people on the wooden planks fell silent.
Obviously, they also understood why Kōzuki Oden had said those words to Kaido earlier.
"Hehehe, how touching."
Charlotte Linlin looked at everything in the arena with a smile.
"What does that mean? Those retainers haven't been immersed in the oil pot, how can it be considered entering the pot?"
As Orochi, who wanted to exterminate the entire Kozuki clan, saw the Kozuki retainers being held up by Oden on the wooden planks in the pot, he said discontentedly. Perhaps Kaido didn't care about these guys, but without Kurozumi Higurashi and Kurozumi Semimaru, he was very afraid.
"Wororororo."
"It's true that all twelve people have entered the pot, no problem."
"Oden, is this your plan? But do you think your Armament Haki can make you last an hour in the oil pot!? I can't wait to see."
Kaido held up his wine cup, laughing as he looked at Oden struggling in the oil pot.
Sizzle!
The hot oil splattered onto the upper body of Oden, which was not enveloped in Haki, making a piercing sound.
Obviously, Kōzuki Oden understood that if he covered his entire body with Armament Haki inside the oil pot, he might be able to endure for an hour, but if other parts of his body were covered, he definitely wouldn't last that long.
"It's only been a minute, there are still fifty-nine minutes left, hold on, Oden. Worororo..."
Kaido glanced at the clock and said with a laugh.
Soon it would be an hour.
"Everyone, no matter what, they won't let me go today, remember what I said!"
"Lord Oden!"
"Shut up, quiet and listen to me!"
Faced with the rare anger of Oden, all his retainers closed their mouths.
"Toki, get ready, take Momonosuke to the future later, the hope of Wano and the world will be on you two!"
"My lord…."
…
"Whoooom"
*Boom*
*Boom*
*Crackle*
At this unexpected moment, a huge attack fell from the sky, covering the entire execution platform and everything around it.
On the open space around the execution platform.
A group of people who came to watch the execution were all looking up in astonishment, staring in disbelief at the massive attack that had just come from the sky, like a divine punishment.
The earthquake-like vibration from under their feet, after it subsided, still lingered in their hearts, leaving them unable to calm down for a long time.
"What... was that?!"
Among the crowd, a child looked extremely frightened, staring at the huge ship suspended in the air, tremblingly asking, obviously shocked by the attack just now.
The residents, who were panicking and fleeing the streets, didn't have time to notice what had happened on the scene.
"Nicholas!"
"Thunder bastard!"
As two shocked voices came from behind in succession, and then several people ignored the distinction between master and servant, Taking benefit of the chaos Kanjuro picked up Momonosuke, while Kin'emon carried Toki, and Ashura Doji carried Oden's body on his back, and they all ran towards the direction of Kuri.
Only by returning to Kuri could they plan their next move.
