Chapter 964: "Oden's Adventure"

30 years ago, Whitebeard refused to let Kozuki Oden join his crew because of concern about Oden's character. However, as he tried to covertly set sail, Oden and Izo stowed away by riding on a chain. Whitebeard decided to allow Oden to join if he could ride the chain for three days, but Oden ended up drifting away. He washed ashore on an island, scaring away a band of human traffickers who had tried to kidnap a woman named Amatsuki Toki by promising to take her to Wano. After Toki treated his wounds, Oden defended her when the traffickers came back with their leader Karma. However, Whitebeard then came and took out Karma as he offered for Oden to join him, being impressed with his willingness to protect Toki.

Oden, Toki, Izo, and the stowaways Inuarashi and Nekomamushi then sailed and adventured with the Whitebeard Pirates, and one day Toki revealed that she was a time traveler who was born 800 years ago. Meanwhile, Gol D. Roger read the news of Oden joining Whitebeard and expressed a desire to meet him.
