Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #46 features Luffy and Kaido’s daughter Yamato on the cover.
This is the first time we see Yamato’s color scheme.
Yamato is the daughter of Kaido and self-proclaims to be “Kozuki Oden”. This profound admiration for the legendary samurai has led to the decision to embody everything related to the samurai to the extent of proclaiming to be a man as well, and hence Yamato is widely referred to as Kaido’s son.
Yamato had met Ace at some point in the past. She had tried to sail out of Wano with him, but her father’s handcuffs kept her prisoner on Onigashima.
After failing to set sail with Ace, Yamato had been waiting for his brother, Monkey D. Luffy, to arrive at Onigashima. For this reason, she chased and clashed with Luffy, ignoring his time constraints in order to talk to him, even if for just five minutes. She trusted Luffy enough to request his help in achieving Oden’s dream of opening Wano’s borders.
Yamato wished to be saved from her father and intends to leave Wano with Luffy’s crew as a means to be free and explore the sea like Oden did.
