Remarkably, the Wano Arc of “One Piece” was nearly universally admired, yet it sparked a significant debate among fans when it was disclosed that Yamato would not be joining the Straw Hat pirates. Despite debuting relatively late during the Onigashima raid, Yamato, despite initial confusion about his gender identity and subsequent controversy, swiftly gained popularity and emerged as a strong candidate for the next Straw Hat member. Regrettably, many fans were disheartened when Yamato declined Luffy’s offer to join the crew, opting instead to adhere to Oden’s path by traversing the nation first.
This voyage through Wano Country is now recorded as the ongoing saga in “One Piece,” titled “Ogre Child Yamato’s Golden Harvest Surrogate Pilgrimage.” The latest installment, Chapter 1140, underscores why Yamato couldn’t join the Straw Hats. It is revealed that characters like Ulti and Page One are still in Wano, accompanied by Who’s-Who and numerous other ex-subordinates of Kaido who have settled in Udon. These remaining forces could potentially pose a significant threat to Wano, suggesting that the country continues to require someone as powerful as Yamato to defend it.
One Piece’s Latest Cover Story Proves Wano Needs Yamato
It’s evident in “One Piece,” particularly following Admiral Ryokugyu’s attack on Wano, why Yamato didn’t join the Straw Hats, even though it wasn’t directly mentioned in Chapter 1057. With Kaido gone, Wano finds itself in a vulnerable state. This is significant considering Momonosuke’s recent ascension as shogun and the ongoing reconstruction of the nation, which encompasses not just physical rebuilding but also the establishment of new leadership. Though Momonosuke has the Akazaya Nine, Yamato’s immense power would greatly strengthen Wano’s defenses at this critical juncture. Moreover, “One Piece”‘s current cover story underscores this necessity.
While initially appearing peaceful, the ongoing narrative of Wano is gradually unveiling its troubles, which encompass perplexing abductions and disappearances. For instance, in Chapter 1124’s cover story, Yamato intervenes to save a woman from kidnapping on her way to Kuri. The following chapter, 1125, discloses that Minatomo, Franky’s former employer and carpenter, has vanished. Additionally, Chapter 1126 reveals several missing girls from the soba shop in Kuri. Furthermore, Yamato’s cover story also sheds light on the fate of Kaido’s subordinates, such as Holdem, who once more tries to kidnap Otama in Chapter 1133’s cover story. However, the emerging kunoichi swiftly educates him with a well-deserved lesson.
Who’s-Who Could Have Disastrous Effects on Wano in One Piece’s Future
In the conclusion of the Wano Arc from One Piece, several crucial matters remain unresolved, such as the survival status of Kaido and Big Mom, which some fans question. Additionally, the locations of King, Queen, X Drake, Apoo, and Hawkins were unknown, and the mystery surrounding the remaining Tobi Roppo members deepened. However, recent developments in Chapter 1138 have shed light on the whereabouts of Yamato, as it is now known that Who’s-Who has set up a base modeled after himself in Udon, with many former Beast Pirates subordinates. The latest chapter also reveals that Who’s-Who has captured Ulti and Page One as well.
The sibling pair seem to be captives currently, but if they were to join forces with Who’s-Who, the chaos they could cause in Wano would be immense. The vanishings and abductions, coupled with the reappearance of the former Tobi Roppo, only serve to highlight Wano’s urgent need for a guardian like Yamato, at least temporarily. King has the potential to become Luffy’s ally due to his connection with Joyboy, but that is not the case for Who’s-Who, Page One, and Ulti. However, it will be intriguing to see how Yamato’s disguise storyline unfolds, as viewers may witness it come to life when One Piece returns with its anime in April.
