Well that part of the story isn't fully clear yet. If you go back through Kin'emon telling the story of Oden in Ch. 920, you can see that among the retainers watching Oden castle burn is an individual wearing a large straw hat. In the scene where Toki is about to send everyone to the future, you can see this straw hat-wearing individual among the retainers that are bowing to her. You however don't see him when they are shown to have been launched into the future. This actually makes sense, as it's clear that not all the retainers got sent into the future, and certain people stayed back.

Kin'emon states that after watching Oden be executed, they headed back to Oden castle as quick as they could. However along the way, Inu & Neko got into a big fight that led to both of them being captured. It makes sense that if some people are going into the future, that some of the retainers stay back to A) Make sure Inu & Neko didn't get killed, and B) put events into place in Wano so that the retainers could take their revenge. Remember, Kawamatsu said this chapter that he's been in prison for 13 years, so he presumably spent those first 7 freeing Inu & Neko, and doing whatever he was doing to help the Kozuki clan in Wano. This was likely the point that Inu & Neko escaped, and went to Zou to begin building their forces for the inevitable day that the samurai would arrive in Zou. I think Oda's 9 Red Scabbards are as follows:

1. Kin'emon - Confirmed by Orochi to be the "leader"

2. Kanjuro

3. Raizo

4. Kiku

5. InuArashi

6. Nekomamushi

7. Ashura Douji

8. Kawamatsu

9. Denjiro
