Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 259: Trouble In Wano

Wano,

Kozuki Oden, a crew member of Roger Pirates and the son of Shogun Kozuki Sukiyaki. After Roger Pirates disbanded, he returned to his country with thoughts of opening it.

But all his hopes were crushed when he found that his father was sick, he tried to take his position as Shogun. However, he met opposition from the usurper Kurozumi Orochi and pirate Kaido.

As one of the last members of the Kurozumi Family, who were disgraced and stripped of their power and authority, Korozumi Orochi developed immense greed and thirst for power from an early age due to being forced to live in poverty since birth.

With his false timid attitude, he made himself the temporary Shogun after Kozuki Sukiyaki fell sick. But he secretly shook hands with beast Pirates and took over the country. Kaido gave Orochi the manpower to stay Shogun and thwart any voice against him while Orochi allowed Kaido to use his mineral-rich land and master craftsmen to produce weapons.

Orochi brought down the image of Kozuki clan in the eyes of people, Kozuki Oden was nicknamed 'Idiot Lord' because he danced naked every week in different towns. Making it easy for Orochi to manipulate people. Spreading lies that the Kozuki clan was unfit to rule and they wanted to open the borders and sell out the country.

After that, Oden and all his retainers, which includes the nine red Scabbards, were sentenced to death by boiling oil.

Alexander's Kindheart Mall was present in the country so the newspaper reported all the happenings there to the world.

...

Rogers (now known as Robby) sat in his bar. Garp sat in front of him, drinking Alexander's Firewhiskey.

"Bwahahaha... Who would have guessed the old man could make such amazing stuff." He praised.

"Dammit, Garp. This is your 3rd glass. I hope you pay this time." Roger complained.

"Ah, friends don't worry about such small things..."

"Uncle Robby, do you want a newspaper?" Gina asked with a big bag on her back. She was the village's newspaper girl. Though she was too biased for her Grandpa and only sold the Daily Dawn.

Girls in Phixheim had asked him to come out and live there. So Alexander made them a nice small castle, and soon everyone moved into it. Rina, Amy, Gali, Jenny, Gina, Olivia, Douglas, and Hats the cat. Meanwhile, Connor was spread around the world with his hundred clones and Brian was busy managing the business, something he loved. The whole Goa Kingdom was their playground and no one dared to mess with them.

"Haha, yes I will, Gina. Come here, your favorite ice cream is waiting." Roger said. Since Ace was born he dotted on every child he sees.

"Yayyy..." Gina happily went ahead and ate her ice cream. A small perk of being the Papergirl.

Roger saw the newspaper and on the first page was news about Wano. That Oden was captured.

"Tell me, Garp. Why is Kaido given so much freedom by the world government? Can't they just kill him while he's not that big of a threat?" He asked.

Garp also saw the news and grimaced. "*Sigh* The World Government buys weapons from Wano now. Wano is the only place that makes Seastones weapons. It's all about gaining something and losing something for the higher-ups."

"That's why you rejected the promotion?" Roger guessed.

"Yeah. I'd rather stay away from that pit of vipers. Anyways, I gotta go now. See you someday later." Garp went away to do his job.

"Ahhhh... Thank you, uncle Robby. I'm off to work too." Gina also hopped away.

Roger alone looked at the paper, "I can't let this happen. Roger Pirates may have disbanded. But our brotherhood stays."

He closed his shop and called Alexander.

...

Alexander was currently in the New World. Looking for a territory to take over and call it Justice Land. But most of the islands on the Grand Line were so unstable that he couldn't decide.

*Peruperuperuperuperu...*

"Yeah, who?" He asked.

On the other side was an android of Alexander. He had put these Androids as workers in Kindheart malls.

"What?! Why did you even let that happen?" He scolded.

"Yes, our policy is not to meddle with the kingdom's policy. But we should save them if the kingdom itself is in danger. Okay, I will come there." He hung up

He had just received the news about Wano. Not just that, Beast Pirates were also attacking Kindheart Malls in Wano since the morning newspaper was sold.

*Peruperuperuperuperu...*

"What now?... Oh, Roger"

"Yes, I know. Don't worry, you don't have to do anything. I will go there personally now." He reassured.

...

Kaido and Orochi sat on their big chairs. Around them was a big crowd and in the middle was a huge pot with boiling oil.

Oden and the nine red Scabbards were made to stand near it. Oden looked at the boiling oil and then looked back at Kaido,

"I want a chance to get through this, I must live no matter what," he firmly said.

The guard nearby him made fun of him, "Ah, get in. Begging for your life like this! You're a funny guy."

Oden simply pushed him into the tub. The man screamed and his body caught fire. He somehow got out with the burning body and ran to the crowd but no one helped him and he died.

Oden then looked back at Kaido, "The ten of us will enter this, But you shall free the ones who survive... the time you decide."

Orochi giggled with his ugly teeth showing, "SURVIVE?... the point of this punishment is that you instantly die, muahahaha..."

But Kaido had a different thought in his mind. He knew that Oden was a strong man and Kaido won the battle with him by dirty means, even though Oden could still not have defeated him but Kurozumi Higurashi's meddling made it look like Oden would have won against him. It was a shame for Kaido, that his new scar on the chest would keep reminding him. Even more so when his own daughter admired Oden more than him.

Kaido looked at one of his lackeys, "Bring me a clock"

"You have one hour! Worororo! Try to survive that, it's even too long for a regular bath." Kaido announced while laughing.

"You will hold your words?" Oden lastly asked.

"Of course," Kaido promised.

Meanwhile, the public was booing and calling him disgraceful and shouting at him to quickly just jump in the tub and die.

Oden went ahead and jumped in, he shouted loudly for a second. His retainers also followed him but when they were all on the plank leading to the tub, Oden picked it over his head.

It was a shock to the nine red scabbards. They quickly understood that their lord was trying to save them.

"Please stop, Lord Oden"

"It should be us, Lord Oden"

"We will carry you!!"

They all yelled, but they were silenced by a growling shout from Oden, "Shut up and stay still, that's an order"

Orochi seethed in anger, "What's the deal here, his retainers aren't submerged in oil?"

"Wrororo... But all ten of them are in the pot. I have no complaints," Kaido remarked and sipped on sake.

On the other hand, the public was in total shock, they had been calling him Idiot or weak for losing to Kaido but now they saw him carrying 9 fully grown samurais on his shoulder, even that in boiling oil. Their cold hearts started to change a little.

Kaido's commanders were wondering what kind of skin the man had. While the 9 red scabbards were crying on the plank. Even the smoke was enough to burn their skin and they wondered what their Lord was going through.

"Ah, this is boring... I thought there would be more screams... When will the Idiot lord die?" Some people commented.

Among them was Yamato, daughter of Kaido. She punched the man who trash-talked about Oden.

"YOU ARE THE IDIOTS" She shouted.

"To whom do you think you owe this peace you are living in today?... "

She told everyone that Orochi doesn't care about anyone and only wants to destroy the country to exact his revenge. Because his father was made to commit seppuku for killing two other Daimyos to get their lands.

But his family was persecuted in the whole of Wano even after his father's death and Orochi blamed every citizen of Wano for that. Oden then discovered countless weapons and kidnapped people, prepared as offerings to Kaido by Orochi, for selling, to have fun, or just kill them. Oden knew he couldn't win a fight so he accepted the offer of Orochi.

The offer was to dance naked in the streets as a sign of apology towards the Korozumi family. Each time he did it he saved 100 people. He believed that Kaido would leave after 5 years as promised after their shipbuilding was complete.

She shouted at all of them. Finally opening their eyes about how deep in trouble they were.
