Yamato

personality

Yamato greatly admires the legendary samurai Kozuki Oden more than anything, to the point of emulating every aspect of him. She has referred to herself as Oden on multiple occasions and has even emulated her gender, referring to herself as "Kaidou's son" due to Oden being a man.[7] Although he was initially hesitant about presenting himself as Oden,[12] Yamato has expressed a direct attitude toward this identity over time, even proclaiming himself as such to Momonosuke, Oden's son, much to the boy's horror.[13] ] Although she has fully adopted this identity, Yamato has not let go of her original persona, referring to Yamato as her "other name" of hers.[11] Yamato doesn't seem to like people getting her name wrong, as she quickly corrected Luffy when he referred to her with a nickname of hers [14.

skills

Yamato consumed the Inu Inu Fruit: Okuchi no Makami model, a mythical Zoan-type devil fruit that allows him to transform into a divine wolf, as well as a hybrid between a human and that animal. According to Kaidou, this beast is a "guardian deity of Wano Country." Yamato consumed this fruit simply out of hunger even though it was not meant for her to eat. As a zoan, this fruit greatly strengthens Yamato's physical abilities. She was able to face his father, Kaidou, a Sea Emperor, almost on an equal footing, while the latter was in his extremely powerful human dragon form. Furthermore, being a carnivorous animal, this animal transformation gives it a greater predatory instinct, in addition to equipping it with fangs and claws that are suitable for combat. Being a mythical zoan, this fruit grants special powers that a normal wolf does not possess. Yamato is able to release a powerful blast from his mouth that can collide evenly and counteract his father's fire breath. haki Main article: Haki Yamato can use all three types of haki,[2][3] using advanced techniques from two of them.[11][3] Kenbunshoku haki Main article: Kenbunshoku haki Yamato can use kenbunshoku haki, but his level of use is unknown.[2] Busoshoku haki Main article: Busoshoku Haki Yamato is capable of using busoshoku haki, as demonstrated by imbuing his hand and kanabo with it as they prepare to attack Hatcha, resulting in a lightning-like effect.

As an adult, Yamato demonstrated her advanced application of haoshoku haki infusion: something only a few can do.

physical abilities

He demonstrated enormous physical strength, as he was able to knock Ulti out of combat with a single blow from his mace when it was transformed. Due to his large size, he is able to easily pick up Luffy and hold onto him with just one arm while he ran. Yamato is quite fast, being able to dash forward with blinding speed to attack her targets, as well as escape from members of the Beast Pirates who were pursuing her.[10] Yamato also has great resistance, withstanding explosions and direct cuts without much problem, ending only with bruises and superficial cuts.[11] As a child, Yamato was able to withstand the beatings her father gave her and managed to go without eating anything for a while.

weapons

Yamato wields a giant kanabo called Takeru, being very similar to Kaidou's Hassaikai, although studded and thinner, while Kaidou's is spiked and slightly thicker. Along with its immense strength, the kanabo can cause tremendous damage to objects and opponents with a single hit,[10] and with haki, it can be used to perform ranged attacks that can even resemble energy blasts.[18] In addition to the kanabo being a powerful and blunt weapon, Yamato has a masterful technique with it, being able to move it to counter Luffy's rapid attacks with little effort.

history

Past Admiring the legendary samurai As a child, Yamato told Kaidou about his personal desire to become the great samurai Kozuki Oden, something that did not please her father at all, since he subsequently beat up Yamato. Some time later, Ella Yamato was present at Oden's execution during the Legendary Hour twenty years ago, being moved by Shinobu's speech and grieving for the death of his idol [9] [11] After the execution, Yamato ran to Oden Castle to save Momonosuke, but she could only watch as Kaidou threatened the boy.[5] Despite being angry and saddened by Oden's death at the hands of Kaidou and Orochi, Yamato felt great willpower, causing her to go towards Oden's castle in Kuri. Arriving late enough for the attack to have ended, Yamato found Oden's logbook stranded.[7] Yamato since then began to make himself understood as Oden, causing commotion and chaos in Onigashima for a week. Finally being very hungry, her lower members managed to tie her with chains but she accidentally used haoshoku haki against her captors, which Kaidou observed impressed. Seeing her daughter's insistence on impersonating her enemy, she decided to lock her up for a month in a cave with three samurai so that they would kill each other for a ration of food. Frightened by this and thinking that they would resent her for being the daughter of Oden's murderer, Yamato was surprised to see that they let her eat. Greatly impressed by her willpower, the four of them began to get along, reading Oden's notebook together. After ten days Yamato stated that she would fight in the future battle against Kaidou, to which the samurai destroyed the cave and escaped from it to allow her to live to see him [3]. At some point after this Kaidou placed Yamato in explosive shackles made of sea stone[2] to prevent any possibility of escaping Onigashima.
