Warning: Contains spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1051
The lineup of One Piece's pirate crew the Straw Hats is filled with strong characters of infamy and skill, and now in a new piece of fan art by artist ED, the crew's most requested member Yamato has been added to the roster.
Yamato has risen to prominence in One Piece's latest arc, Wano Country. They are the child of major One Piece antagonist Kaido. Though Kaido took over the land of Wano and enslaved its people, Yamato developed a deep appreciation for the Wano samurai Kazuki Oden. Yamato quickly gained popularity with fans due to their impressive power and their strong convictions. Now, all of that comes to life in a new piece of fanart!

Posted on Twitter, fan artist ED adds to the hype with this One Piece fan art that feels like a dream come true for Yamato fans, especially since there is finally confirmation that Yamato joins the Straw Hats at long last in Chapter 1051 of One Piece! While Jinbe, Sanji, Bartolomeo, and Luffy are featured prominently, the main focus of the fan art is Yamato's presence side by side with the crew. ED's decision to put Yamato in the middle, and title the art as «The Big 5» is no accident. Yamato's inclusion combined with their placement in the focal point of this fan art feels poetic for so many One Piece fans. Their eagerly awaited membership in the Straw Hats has often dominated fan discourse for the manga, and this fan art offers a satisfying conclusion for Yamato as they embody their idol Kozuki Oden and travel the world with the pirates seeking adventure.
