  • Height: 263 cm(8'8)


Appearance: Being assigned female at birth and not usually choosing to explicitly present as male, Yamato has typically been referred to as a woman by people when they first encounter him. Yamato is taller than an average human, standing at 263 cm (8'8"). He has long, white hair that is bound between orange rods into a ponytail at the back, which fades into aqua green and then blue the further down it goes, and ends in rectangular locks similar to Kaidou. Yamato also has large, orange eyes with prominent eyelashes, wears gold hoop earrings on both ears, and has horns on the top of his head which are mostly red, but gradually become more flesh-colored toward the base. Yamato's current outfit is a sleeveless white garment with a diamond-shaped design on both sides and an indigo, wisp-patterned bottom half. He wears a pair of red hakama pants and sandals, and, much like Oden, wears a large purple and white nio-dasuki behind his back. While in disguise, Yamato originally also wore a hannya mask, which has a blue wig with an extremely long and wild mane attached to the top and a long blue goatee attached to the bottom. The kimono initially had long white sleeves, but were ripped off along with the rest of the disguise making Yamato's kimono more form-fitting. Four years ago, Yamato wore a similar long-sleeved outfit, but with different symbols near the breasts. The symbols resemble an oden skewer. At age 8, Yamato's outfit was nearly identical to today, except with a slightly different mask with shorter horns and beard and without the nio-dasuki. In the manga, this outfit lacked the diamond-shaped design.

Personality: Yamato greatly admires the legendary samurai Kouzuki Oden to the point of even proclaiming to carry his identity. Yamato has self-identified as Oden on multiple occasions and has even emulated his gender, proclaiming to be the son of Kaidou due to Oden being a man. Although initially carrying doubts as to how to present as Oden, Yamato has steadily expressed a straightforward attitude regarding this identity as time has gone on, even proclaiming this as such to Oden's son Momonosuke, to the boy's horror. Although having wholeheartedly embraced this identity, Yamato retains his original persona, referring to Yamato as his "other name". Yamato does not seem to like being misnamed, having quickly corrected Luffy when given a nickname. Having read of the great exploits documented by Oden in his logbook, which he considers his "bible", Yamato dreams of leaving Wano Country's confines and setting out to sea with the Straw Hat Pirates, much like Oden did with the Whitebeard and Roger Pirates decades before. Yamato also wishes to fulfill the goals that Oden had, namely opening Wano's borders, in direct defiance to Kaidou's wishes for the country. Yamato has shown to be extremely strong-willed, having put up considerable resistance to Kaidou's imprisonment despite taking decades to finally break free. Although initially seeming to be more subordinate to him previously, Yamato's battle with Ace led to him destroying Kaidou's dragon statue in an act of defiance that has since led to more outright rebellion. Yamato has engaged in combat with Kaidou numerous times and has openly expressed opposition and defiance to his plans concerning the two of them, accompanied by insults. When the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance invaded Onigashima, Yamato was immediately willing to help them and had no qualms with attacking members of his father's crew, making his intentions and loyalty clear to them in the process. Yamato is also willing to go to great lengths to achieve his objectives, having basically kidnapped Luffy in order to get to talk to him and following through with this tactic even after Luffy responded by fighting back. Yamato is more than willing to put his body and life on the line to protect people out of care, believing that Oden would never abandon a comrade in danger. Yamato resolutely withstood a barrage of powerful artillery strikes by the Armored Division to protect Momonosuke, and later confronted Kaidou alone to stall him until Luffy returned despite knowing he was no match for his father. However, Yamato also takes enjoyment in engaging in combat; despite framing his plan to split up from Momonosuke as a decoy strategy to trick the Beasts Pirates, Momonosuke and Shinobu both noted to themselves that he seemed mainly interested in going to fight.

Relationship

  • Relationship with Monkey D Luffy: After failing to set sail with Ace, Yamato had been waiting for his brother, Monkey D. Luffy, to arrive at Onigashima. For this reason, Yamato chased and clashed with Luffy after finding him, ignoring his time constraints in order to talk to him, even if for just five minutes. Yamato then trusted Luffy enough to request his help in achieving Oden's dream of opening Wano's borders, and then expressed his wish to be freed from Kaidou and his intent to leave Wano as one of Luffy's crewmates as a means to be free and explore the sea like Oden did. Therefore, after Luffy removed the explosive handcuffs Kaidou had used to imprison Yamato, the two decided they would fight Kaidou together. Their trust has slowly grown and Luffy even entrusted Yamato to help protect Momonosuke. Luffy refers to Yamato by the nickname "Yama-o" (ヤマ男?, VIZ: "Yamao"; Funimation dub: "Yama-bro"). Yamato appears to not understand Luffy's use of nicknames, as evidenced by his attempt to correct Luffy, as well as his reaction to when Luffy gave Ulti a nickname as well. When battling Kaidou, Yamato openly told his father he would lose to Luffy, believing that the pirate would return and calling him "the one that Oden was waiting for". After that, Yamato announced his desire to join Luffy's crew, which upset Kaidou. After Kaidou's defeat, Yamato saved Luffy from falling, congratulating on his victory. While meeting the Straw Hat Pirates, Yamato decided to wait for Luffy's confirmation to join the crew. Luffy would approve of Yamato joining his crew. However, Admiral Ryokugyu's attack on Wano made Yamato realize that others would try the same now that Kaidou was gone, and he decided to stay in Wano to help protect it. Luffy agreed and entrusted Yamato to protect Wano for him. Before leaving Wano, Luffy told Yamato that he was free to join his crew at any time in the future and that they would come looking for him when he did.

  • Relationship with the straw hat Pirates: When they first met, the Straw Hat Pirates were surprised to learn Yamato was related to Kaidou. Yamato assured them that they were not enemies, and revealed his intention to join them; Usopp and Nami were shocked at the claim, Franky was perplexed by the situation, Brook and Sanji were overcome with joy because of their attraction, and Robin laughed with amusement as usual. Jinbe, however, said he would not be convinced until he heard from the captain himself, with Yamato agreeing that was fair enough, and Jinbe also sensed no hostility after he had witnessed Yamato's anger towards the Beasts Pirates who were attempting to run away. Yamato grew closer to the Straw Hats as Luffy and Zoro recovered, becoming friendly with them by the time the two woke up. When he declared that he couldn't join the crew in order to protect Wano, it hurt Sanji deeply, while Zoro told him to be careful not to hurt Momonosuke's pride, which Yamato understood. Later he went to say goodbye to all of them together with Momonosuke and Kin'emon.

*Relationship with Portgas D. Ace: Yamato met the young pirate Ace about four years before the main story and was initially antagonistic towards him due to his excessive rampage on Onigashima. The two quickly became friends, however, after Ace recognized that Yamato was being held captive by Kaidou. As they drank sake together, they talked about the current generation of pirates and Ace's little brother, Luffy. Yamato would have liked to sail out of Wano with the Spade Pirates, but was kept prisoner on Onigashima, shackled with explosive handcuffs. However, he created a Vivre Card for Ace so they could meet again. Yamato thought highly of Ace and believed he would be the one leading the new generation of pirates, until his untimely death at Marineford two years ago. This is also evidenced by his conversation with Luffy, in which Yamato fondly stated that Luffy was reminiscent of Ace and that, although it was impossible to set sail with Ace, it would be possible to leave with Luffy due to them being brothers.

Abilities and powers: Yamato is an extremely powerful warrior, with Black Maria noting that bringing him back to Kaidou's fortress after he had escaped would be a difficult task. In the past, Yamato was able to clash against Ace, a powerful Logia user, on equal ground. Afterwards, Ace acknowledged Yamato's abilities, saying he could not believe someone so strong was not the captain and lamenting that he could not join his crew. During the Raid on Onigashima, Yamato clashed with Kaidou, a particularly notable feat considering the Emperor's nearly unparalleled physical might, with Kaidou himself acknowledging his son's strength and value as a soldier. Luffy also greatly respects Yamato's abilities, trusting him with protecting Wano after it became vulnerable to outside forces following Kaidou's defeat, despite wishing for Yamato to join his pirate crew.

*Physical abilities: Yamato possesses immense physical strength resembling that of Kaidou, being capable of wielding a large and heavy kanabo and using it to knock out Ulti, an Ancient Zoan user and one of the Tobiroppo known for her durable skull with just one blow in the head. Yamato was also able to physically match Luffy's strength with relative ease, even when he increased his strength exponentially with Gear 2 and Gear 3. When he countered a punch from Luffy with a kick, the powerful collision destroyed part of the nearby wall and ceiling and blew back the Beasts Pirates around them. Yamato could easily run while carrying Luffy with just one arm and was able to shatter the extremely tough armor and weaponry of the Beasts Pirates' Armored Corps. Yamato is extremely fast, being able to lunge forward with blinding speed to attack, as well as outrun members of the Beasts Pirates in pursuit, and eventually completely elude the pirates and escape to the attic with Luffy without anyone seeing them. Yamato possesses tremendous levels of durability and endurance, having emerged from being struck by multiple explosive bazooka blasts with only superficial bruises and cuts, though eventually began taking more serious wounds as the bazooka strikes continued. During the fight against Kaidou, Yamato was able to withstand the Emperor's powerful attacks and continue to fight effectively.

Devil fruit powers: Yamato ate the Inu Inu no Mi, Model: Okuchi no Makami, a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit that allows him to transform into a divine wolf, as well as a human-divine wolf hybrid. According to Kaidou, this beast is a "Guardian Deity of Wano Country". Yamato ate this fruit purely out of hunger, with Kaidou not intending for him to be the one consuming the fruit. As a Zoan, this fruit greatly bolsters Yamato's physical abilities. He was able to clash near-evenly against Kaidou, an Emperor of the Sea, while the latter had assumed his extremely powerful human-dragon form. Furthermore, being a carnivorous animal, this animal transformation grants Yamato heightened predatory instincts, as well as equipping fangs and claws that are well-suited for combat. Being a Mythical Zoan, this fruit bestows special powers that a regular wolf does not possess. Yamato is able to generate ice, using it for augmenting weapons, creating protection with ice armor or walls, and even releasing a powerful blast of ice from his breath that can clash evenly with and cancel out Kaidou's flame breath blast.

Haki: Yamato is an immensely skilled user of Supreme King Haki, a very rare form of Haki whose users are said to have the qualities of a "king". It was first awakened 20 years ago as a result of Yamato running wild throughout Onigashima as a child, knocking out Kaidou's subordinates. As an adult, Yamato demonstrated its advanced application of "infusion", something that only a "handful" of people can do, often imbuing his weapon Takeru and causing a stream of black lightning to be emitted from it, as shown when performing Raimei Hakke and Shinsoku Hakujaku. Yamato's advanced Supreme King was also strong enough to hurt the Admiral Ryokugyu.

  • Armament Hak: Yamato is an extremely skilled user of Armament Haki, as shown by facing off against Ace, a Logia user and clashing against his flames, managing to wound him. Two years later, Yamato was shown projecting a long-distance swing using a hardened Takeru that knocked out Hatcha. Yamato's Armament Haki is strong enough to wound Kaidou whose skin is impervious to all but the strongest Haki attacks.

Observation Haki: Yamato is a very skilled user of Observation Haki, which allowed him to sense a burst of Shanks' Supreme King Haki.

Weapons: Yamato wields a giant kanabō named Takeru, which is much like Kaidou's club Hassaikai, though it is studded and more slender while Hassaikai is spiked and slightly thicker. Coupled with Yamato's immense strength, the kanabo can cause tremendous damage to objects and opponents with a single hit, and with Yamato's strength and Haki, it can be used to perform flying strikes that can even resemble energy blasts. Yamato has mastered the usage of his kanabo despite its great size and weight, being capable of moving it to counter Luffy's rapid attacks with little effort.

History

*Past: Yamato was born 28 years ago to his father Kaidou in an unknown location. Twenty years ago, at the age of 8, Yamato witnessed Kouzuki Oden's execution during the Legendary Hour and developed an immense admiration for the samurai. Following Oden's death, Yamato went to Kuri Castle to try and help save Oden's family, but he was too weak to intervene and was forced to helplessly watch as Kaidou threatened to kill Momonosuke. Yamato then discovered Oden's logbook floating in a nearby stream. As a result of this, Yamato developed the desire to become Oden and carry on his dream of opening Wano Country's borders, but when he told Kaidou about this, his father responded by beating him up and putting shackles on his wrists that would ostensibly explode if he left the country. After rioting for a week on Onigashima, Kaidou had Yamato chained to a post. In his desperation to be free, Yamato unknowingly used Supreme King Haki to knock out many Beasts Pirates. Kaidou questioned him about this but Yamato did not know if it was his fault and asked for food. His father told him that it was promising since he possessed Supreme King Haki; however, since he impersonated Oden, he would have to die. In order to help Yamato see sense, Kaidou imprisoned him inside a cave for a month with three daimyo, who were also being held until their spirits broke and they joined him. Noting that everyone inside was hungry, Kaidou gave them enough food for one person as well as swords they could use to fight over it. Yamato became extremely scared that the samurai would attack him due to him being Kaidou's son, but Uzuki Tempura proceeded to immediately give him the food, saying they did not feel hunger. Shimotsuki Ushimaru cut Yamato free from his chains and was friendly to the young child, as Oden was a friend to him and the other samurai. Yamato asked if the samurai could help him read Oden's logbook, and they did so with great interest, reading his accounts with great fascination. Ten days later, Yamato was greatly weakened from starvation, so the samurai, seeing that Kaidou was really going to let him die, broke out of the cave to free Yamato so that he could survive and fight for Wano in the battle that Oden predicted would occur in twenty years. Not long after, one of his father's subordinates found him and gave him blankets and food, and Yamato later watched as he was executed for it. At some point, when the Number Fuga ate a SMILE that gave him a hybrid horse body, his fellow Numbers mocked him and Kaidou punished him for stealing that fruit. Yamato, however, found his hybrid horse form cool and they became great friends.
