Mousse was then surprised to discover that the "filial daughter" who would later clash Thunder Bagua with her father was now a rather quiet-looking little girl. Aside from her conspicuous horns, she looked far more like a human girl than a savage Evil Spirit like Kaido.
It seems Yamato's later decision to side with humans wasn't entirely because of Oden Kozuki's influence. Perhaps she had always felt closer to humans, which was why she so admired Oden Kozuki for daring to challenge her terrifying father?
While turning this over in his mind, Charlotte Mousse used his skill at coaxing children to draw information from the little girl. He quickly learned that Kaido's brutal method of education had begun long ago. It had not started after she came to worship Oden, when Kaido forcibly suppressed her. Mousse now understood the proper order of cause and effect.
Perhaps it was precisely because of that upbringing, combined with the Seastone training method that was no secret in Wano Country, that Yamato possessed formidable vitality more than three times Mousse's current level despite being only eight years old!
