Chapter 971 of One Piece has been very impressive in every way. While the execution of Hozuki Oden and the nine Red Pods is being prepared, the people will know the truth about the hero's attitude in recent years. In order to put in antecedents it is necessary to explain that the return of Oden to the Country of Wano was received as the savior. After 5 years, when Oden saw what was happening with Orochi's rise to power, backed by Kaido, he faced both. However, a hoax prevented Oden from ending Kaido's life, jailed him and sentenced him to death. Why did it take so long for Oden to act?
In the last chapter many things have been revealed that had no explanation so far. Oden has proposed a deal for hold in the boiling cauldron an hour to save the lives of all its allies, a scene that has a great easter egg between the pages of the manga. People begin to get impatient and leave the place insulting Oden, to which Shinobu is stirring he is listening to everything and reveals everything that actually happened.
Orochi wanted to become Shogun to «Ruin the country and complete my revenge». As he explained, his grandfather was sentenced to become Seppuku, better known as harakiri, for a crime he committed. But his relatives were also persecuted and killed, which is why he wants revenge on the whole country. Also, for a hidden room Orochi handed him weapons and hundreds of kidnapped people to Kaido for his goals.
At that time, Orochi proposed a deal to Oden that he could not refuse. If he did a naked dance in the village streets every week as an apology to his clan, Oden would lose everything but with each dance I would save 100 people of being kidnapped, tortured or killed. And after 5 years they would leave the country of Wano. After that time, Oden saw that it was a new deception and then he faced both with the Red Pods. That is, Oden had protected the country in silence for 5 long years.
