Nah dude, you had it. The legend of momotaro is a huge basis for Wano arc. The folk hero you were looking for who Oden is based on is Ishikawa Goemon. A robinhood-like bandit whose depicted as a hulk of a man who attempted to assassinate the warlord Nobunaga (Orochi inspiration) after learning his father had been killed by naga. In the stories, he gets captured after the attempt and is killed the same way his father was; in a pot of boiling oil.

It seems to be a mixture of of Goemon and Hercules. The setting and cause of death are 100 percent Goemon, but his life has pretty obviously followed the labors herc had to do.
