The Straw Hat Pirates are the primary protagonists of One Piece, led by Monkey D. Luffy. This crew was created in One Piece chapter 6, which was released on September 1, 1997, in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 40. It was in this chapter that Roronoa Zoro joined Luffy on his adventure, and thus began this legendary crew from the East Blue.
Up until this point in the story, Luffy and the Straw Hats have amassed many powerful members, and they now stand as one of the Emperor crews of the seas in the New World. At the same time, they have also made countless friends and gained many allies, some of whom might even go on to join the Straw Hat Pirates in the future. One such character is the legendary protector of Wano, Yamato. Surprisingly, Eiichiro Oda, the creator of the series, most recently confirmed to us that, in a potential future that may or may not come to pass, Yamato could end up dying at the age of 60 under very tragic circumstances.
Yamato was introduced as Kaido's child in One Piece chapter 971, released on February 17, 2020, in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 12. Immediately after, it was established that Yamato was actually an ally of Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates and hated Kaido just as much as the people of Wano.
