## One Piece Chapter 1024, pages 9-10: Nobody Important - Chapter: 1024 - Pages: 9-10 - Characters: Yamato, Kaido, Beast Pirates, Kozuki Oden, Samurai ### Summary Page 9: The chapter flashes back to the skull dome after Oden's death, when young Yamato was called the "Oni Princess" and accused of throwing a nonstop tantrum for a week. Yamato, chained and beaten, insists, "My name is Oden!!" and demands to be let out of the chains, shouting, "I'm Oden!! Kozuki Oden!!" Kaido's subordinates lie defeated around the room from the child's violent outburst. Kaido stands over the wreckage and asks, "Yamato... did you... do this?" Yamato keeps panting and repeats "Oden!!" The page shows how early Yamato's rebellion became dangerous: even as a child, Yamato's claim to Oden's name was backed by power strong enough to knock down adults and provoke Kaido's full anger. Page 10: Young Yamato sits hungry in a cave, chained and terrified, saying, "I don't know... They all just fell down. I'm going to starve to death. Please feed me." Kaido recognizes the signs and says, "Conqueror's Haki, huh? That's promising... But if you insist on calling yourself Oden, it'd be better... if you did die, Yamato." Yamato screams in shock. Kaido gives a cruel condition: he will leave Yamato in the cave for a month to cool off and reconsider, with wild samurai imprisoned there too. Yamato begs, asking how he can leave a child in a place like this, but Kaido walks away. The page exposes the brutality behind Yamato's childhood: Kaido sees even hunger and imprisonment as training if it will break the Oden identity.
