They have just been told that the samurai crossed time to be there

Luffy: wait what do you mean?

Sanji: you're not joking

Ryo: Apparently not

Chopper: can you back that up a sec, how did you get here and twenty years ago, that's before I was even born!

Nami: you leapt through time that's not like a turn of phrase you can actually do that!?

Carrot: None of this junk makes sense! Explain it from the start!

Luffy: yeah what she said give us the whole story

Kinemon: I shall reveal it all, a tale of wano itself, a true tragedy, also do brace yourselves!

The tale begins oden castle was not in such a sorry state, it was once called Kuri castle, but because of their love for lord oden the castle was renamed, He was a boisterous man, daring in every respect of the word, He was the son of the shogun of wano, but he was known for his free spirit and unconventional ways, with his nonconformist lifestyles and reposted acts of violence he was banished from the flower capital, so he ventured out, until he found the lawless area, where crimals and exiled ronin ran rampant , it was so beyond saving even the shogun's family turned away from it, but this was oden's soon to be home

Then Kuri's most wicked man appeared with his band of thugs

His name was ashura Doji and they clashed immediately

The battle was quick and oden brought him down

Amazingly after his victory Doji's underlings swore their loyalty to him

He soon put them too work and together they built up Kuri, along with the paradise farm, this once wasteland transformed into a region of laughter and prosperity, Then lord oden was bestowed the title of daimyo

And he was only 20 users old

He dig out a river, built docks, connected with neighbouring regions and other people too

He was adored by all his people but he couldn't help feeling bored

There was a phrase he often said

"I say! It's a bit stuffy around here!"

He was a man that charmed, Roger, Akuma and Whitebeard

There was no shortness of great words to describe him, a funny, vibrant, merry, good natured, he was the reason Kuri was thriving

But..then kaido stepped onto the scene and ne formed an alliance with orochi and set lord oden up

That is when the land of wano fell, their beloved lord, his name was sullied

It was a tragic day in wano's history

Oden was tried as a criminal, he was executed in front of his people

After all that he'd done, the man was put to death, it was unbelievably unfair, It may have happened 20 years go but for Kinemon, Momonosuke, Kiku, kanjuro and raizo, it was only a few months

A wound so fresh that every time, they close their eyes they are forced to watch the great warriors final moments

But even though they would've given anything to stay

They knew they had no choice but to run, so they fled the execution ground and headed straight to oden castle

On the way Dogstorm and cat viper where caught by orochi's men, but they couldn't stop, they had to keep running and that's what they did, no matter who fell they knew they had to reach the castle, because orochi's next target would of been momonosuke, this would be the final step to dismantle the Kozuki clan, be eradicating its only heir

But Oden castle had already been set ablaze, so the warriors fought through kaido's men, refusing to be captured

Momonosuke, His younger sister hiyori and his mother toki where trapped in the burning castle

But the Samurai kept moving and made it too them and they had to bow and share that Lord oden had fallen

But toki merely told them to raise their heads and to not blame themselves

So of course the next course of actions would be too escape but toki refused, even after negotiating with her she still remained firm on her decision

So the samurai vowed to stay with her and share the same fate

But toki told them to flee to the future

Toki revealed that she once along time ago, ate the time time fruit, she has been travelling into the future over and over again, up until this moment, the place where her journey will end, because she fell in love with oden, so she will stay here and join oden once again, so the samurai bowed again

So they made one last vow

To defeat kaido and Orichi and reopen wano and fulfil oden's dream

So the samurai, along with momo, where sent 20 years into the future

Where they landed on the remains of oden castle

And found their graves

They truly had leapt through time, so they explored, taking in all that they could

They saw rows of factories and towering smoke stacks, that vented black fifth into their skies, there was undrinkable water, food under strict control, the once verdant region was now baron, the Kozuki clan's name had been tainted and uttered with scorn, this is not the land they know and love

They thought that no-one would wish to fight beside them but that was not true, in all that time their loyalty had not faded

Lord oden's people offered themselves to help the Kozuki clan in anyway they could

And that's a wrap

Thought I should do this, anyway this is when it gets serious so look forward too that
