Others may not know what kind of person Kozuki Oden is, but for the Whitebeard Pirates who once let Kozuki Oden board the ship, as long as they are an old crew member, they can remember the man from Wano Country. Samurai situation.
"He's brave and strong, and he's a naturally adventurous guy!"
This is Whitebeard's positive evaluation of Kozuki Oden himself, but in addition to the positives, there are also negatives.
"A bastard who doesn't care about the feelings of the people around him, a cold-blooded guy who is not bound by family ties. I can still remember the scene where he didn't hesitate to leave with Roger and go looking for the final island together.
To be honest, if Roger hadn't knelt in front of me and begged me to let him go, I would have killed both of them together..."
Whenever the incident of Kozuki Oden following Roger was brought up, Whitebeard would feel very unhappy. Although his personal relationship with Roger was not bad, Roger poached Kozuki Oden from his ship, and the guy Kozuki Oden was still... He looked like he was happy to be poached, which really made Whitebeard angry at the time.
"Uh, but isn't Kozuki Oden-sama just chasing his own dreams?"
Yamato, who had arrived at the territory of the Whitebeard Pirates and even met Whitebeard himself, listened to the other party's description and couldn't help but refute the man in front of him.
"Dreams? Oh, are dreams more important than family and friends?"
Whitebeard is a little disdainful. What he dislikes the most about Kozuki Oden is that the other party's departure was completely impromptu.
Even after Kozuki Oden heard that Roger was going to continue his adventure to find the last island in the new world - Ravdru, he believed that his dream was to find that island before leaving the Whitebeard Pirates. Come and tell him, Whitebeard won't be so angry.
But what does it mean to say goodbye without saying goodbye? Is his white beard the kind of person who would stop his family and friends from pursuing their dreams?
The other party's secret departure was no different from betrayal, and that guy Kozuki Oden thought it was nothing.
It was as if he regarded the other party as a family member, but the other party regarded him as a springboard tool. If Roger hadn't given him a step in the end and Dogeza asked him to give up Kozuki Oden to him, Whitebeard, who was still very grumpy at the time, would definitely have taken Kouzuki Oden to him. The bile of that bastard Tsuki Oda was knocked out.
"In short, there are indeed some bright spots in that guy Kozuki Oden that are worth admiring, but the other party will definitely not be able to take off such a bastard label as irresponsible. In our opinion, Kozuki Oden He’s just a bad guy who has good strength and heroic spirit, but doesn’t pay attention to family ties.”
Whitebeard asked someone to pour a glass of wine for the little girl in front of him, and then summed up Kozuki Oden.
However, Yamato didn't believe his description of the idol. He took out a handwritten sailing diary belonging to Kozuki Oden that had been thrown into the fire by her father and began to refute Whitebeard's words. "What you said is not the real Kozuki Oden-sama at all. Look at this voyage diary belonging to Kozuki Oden-sama. He is completely different from what you said."
"Ha, who serious person keeps a diary?"
"I wrote."
"Okay, little girl, show me Kozuki Oden's voyage diary in your hand."
"Give!"
Yamato was unconvinced and handed over the voyage diary in his hand.
Whitebeard took it and flipped through a few pages, then started laughing: "That guy Kozuki Oden really knows how to put gold on his face."
Next, Whitebeard revealed the truth behind the chivalrous adventure stories of Kozuki Oden in Yamato's handwritten diary.
"There are some things that he obviously did together with us, but in the diary it seems like he did it alone.
There are also some thrilling adventure stories, which are not his own experiences at all, but the experiences of other crew members on my ship, and they are also used.
In addition, even some things that were just talked about when everyone was drinking and bragging were also included..."
How to break the idol filter?
Very simple, push
Just translate the idol's original personality and show the truest side.
Of course, Whitebeard didn't deliberately lie to get in touch with Kozuki Oden. It's normal for the pirates to brag and spank when they sit down to drink together.
As for those who record voyage diaries, except for a few honest people who actually record their actual experiences as they are, most of them will have some artistic exaggeration or even bragging.
Who would be a serious person to keep a diary? And what is the probability that what is actually written in the diary is completely true and correct?
The answer is, no, but the probability is so small that it can be ignored. Obviously, for Kozuki Oden, who was still very young at the time, the other party was not a serious and honest person.
As Marco came closer, after hearing his father mention Kozuki Oden, he casually interjected two sentences: "I miss that bastard who was good at swordsmanship" and "Ha, he actually wrote the story I bragged about into his own." In the diary]...
After saying such words that didn't seem to be false, Yamato suffered severe mental trauma caused by the smashing of the idol filter.
The whole person was leaning forward in frustration, and the color around him seemed to be changing to gray, but he was deeply shocked.
The mobile island left Whitebeard's territory and also took away a group of Whitebeard's sons who were preparing to go to the association island for further training.
After crossing the red continent by air without any trouble, most of the passengers on the empty island were soon dropped off on the misty island drifting near the waters of the Kingdom of Alabasta in the first half of the Grand Line.
Only a group of people who were promising or had special identities were taken beyond the windless zone into the East China Sea and headed directly to the Happy Island - O'Hara.

How to quickly cheer up a young girl who is chasing stars but encounters the collapse of her idol's house and is now a little tired of love?
Wu Ke's answer was to let the other party chase a new star that would never collapse, and the name of this star was [Faith].
Of course, it is not to let them believe in a certain biological individual that actually exists, but to let them believe in a certain truth that is correct for the world. For example, the JD Association wants to change the world and contribute more to the world in the Age of Discovery. Thoughts of a better future.
After hearing about this girl from Qing Pheasant through a phone call, and then seeing the other person in person to confirm that she was a really good prospect, Wu Ke, the old life mentor, showed a satisfied smile.
"No one is perfect. No matter how great a person seems to be, there is still a risk of collapse, but the truth in the world does not have such a risk...
A motivated girl, is this the person you are chasing?
No, what you are pursuing is just the sparkle in the other person, the belief that the other person shows and is seen by you...
Forget it, forget the great impression of that person in your mind now, you only need to remember the belief that once touched you and was revealed by the other person, and engrave it in your heart...
You actually have a predestined relationship with our JD association. In my opinion, your joining the association is just an arrangement of fate. You who worship and protect the ideas of others are naturally an association member.
Come, join our association and work together to provide the best future for this great sailing world! "
With just a few words, Wu Ke ignited the flame that was about to go out in the innocent girl's heart, rekindling her fighting spirit.
"President, please don't worry. I, Yamato, will definitely fight for our association. If there are any enemies, let me smash their heads with the big stick in my hand!"
Of course, it’s not a good idea to have too much fighting spirit, especially a samurai girl who only uses overly straightforward force to solve all problems.
"Don't worry, you still lack a lot of knowledge necessary to pursue your dreams. Later, you will form a society to teach you that knowledge bit by bit.
And before you graduate, the association does not require you to lead the charge.
Well, we are not alone, but there are many comrades with the same beliefs scattered around the world.
Come on, I'm here
Before I give you the exclusive mark of a core member of our association, you have to be patient, because it may be a little painful. "
"I'm not afraid of pain."
"Good boy."
The devil touched my head and put a mark on it.
Yamato just groaned, and a crimson Enma mark was printed on his forehead.
Wu Ke was very satisfied with this energetic girl and gave her high-standard treatment in advance that only core members could receive.
Yamato felt the heat from her forehead spread to all parts of her body, and subconsciously controlled the heat to reach her hands. Crimson flames came out of her hands. She was very surprised and couldn't help but ask: "This is a natural devil fruit." strength?"
"No, this is a spark that can start a prairie fire. It belongs to the members of the JD Association and the power of everyone's common will."
Although the Enma Seal itself is his Enma King Seal, combined with the extension technology developed by him with the power of the Burning Fruit rules in this world, it is the latest version of the trick that gives others the power of rules, but if there are some things that can be strengthened The cohesiveness of the association, Wu Ke wouldn't mind doing some artistic processing on it.
The effect of the art of discourse processing was outstanding, and Yamato suddenly felt a strong sense of responsibility in himself.
"Okay, it's been a long journey, and you've worked hard too. Let's go and take a rest first, and then we can recuperate our energy so that we can contribute our strength to the association and everyone in the future."
Under Yamato's gaze, Wu Kewen's friendly smile remained unchanged, and he asked Robin, who had grown into a slim girl, to take him down to rest.
When the innocent girl Yamato left here, Wu Ke's eyes turned to Hiyori Kozuki, the legal heir of Wano Country and the last descendant of the Kozuki family.
The frail appearance shown by the other party did not arouse his pity. Wu Ke just had a normal conversation with the girl who looked pitiful and understood the other party's views and future arrangements for his life. The other JD association unified the corresponding heir treatment for some kingdoms and countries that are willing to cooperate with them.
"Don't look so pitiful. Our association will not make an exception for you. If you want to take back your country, then show your skills in front of us.
Of course, the ability I am referring to is normal national leadership ability. As long as you have this ability, it is definitely not a problem to take back the country of Wano.
[In view of the general environment,
But if you personally don’t have the ability to lead a country and make the people of a country happy, then accept your fate and become the nominal supreme leader of the Wano Country regime, where we can do whatever we want in society. "
"You guys actually want Hiyori-sama to be your puppet?!"
Denjiro was a loyal minister, so this man was very angry because of Wu Ke's rude words.
"I should have made it very clear. This mainly depends on whether she has the ability to manage a country well."
Wu Ke pointed at Guangyue Rihe and said.
"Those who are capable are naturally our collaborators. Those who are not capable, our association cannot allow your Highness the Princess to corrupt a country with a population of one million. The specific details mainly depend on her, not us. .”
Wu Ke said and gave another option: "Of course, if you feel uncomfortable, you can choose to give up. There is no need to revive the original noble daimyo system of Wano Country.
However, considering some of the humanistic customs and beliefs that exist in your country, we are willing to give the Kozuki clan you represent the opportunity to return to being the supreme leader of the country of Wano.
The condition just requires you to prove to us that you have the ability to manage a country well.
And if you can't even do this, I suggest you two think about it, forget your past identities, and start a new life as an ordinary person from now on. "
Denjiro, Hiyori Kozuki: "..."
Put aside the glory of the Kozuki family in the past, and become a
How is this possible for ordinary people to start over?
"Sorry, we bear the responsibility of regaining the Kozuki family. This is something that cannot be abandoned or forgotten."
"So, you don't have many choices, there are only two. If you don't want to choose either, but want to choose your own choice, then I am sorry to tell you that the rest of your life is destined to change in our association. was sacrificed."
Hearing this, Denjiro couldn't help but hold the long knife at his waist, but soon he let go of the hand holding the handle, and even threw away his own knife.
For no other reason than because his long sword was already melting towards the molten iron. Denjiro didn't notice anything unusual during the whole process, but his weapon was indeed gone.
"This kind of sacrifice is force majeure based on your current situation, if you must insist on the wrong path you want to choose."
Wu Ke withdrew his gaze as the long knife melted into molten iron, and said to the two people in front of him without any change in his attitude.
"Is it enough to just prove that I have this ability?"
Suddenly, Hiyori Kouzuki, who was dressed up and didn't know who to charm, asked.
"Um."
Wu Ke nodded slightly and confirmed the girl's question.
"Then I will definitely work hard. I swear on the name of the Kozuki family, Mr. President of the JD Association, that I will never let you down."
Kozuki Hiyori's voice was very strong and his tone was very decisive.
"No, no, no, you are not trying to make me disappointed, but you are trying to make the people of your country not disappointed. Don't go in the wrong direction."
Wu Ke raised his hand as he spoke and gave each of them a mark. However, unlike the mark given to the impulsive girl, the mark given to these two people was a simplified version.
Except for turning people directly into self-destructing trucks and human fireworks under certain circumstances, it will not bring any additional special power bonus to the holder of this mark.
