Edit: And if your answer is related to Isobu, keep in mind, we neither know how old he was when the beast was extracted from him, nor when it was sealed within him. All we know is that, at some point, he was its jinchuriki, and at some point, he lost it.

Except we saw Yaguras true personality was very benevolent; so its obvious he didnt start the Bloody Mist.

He did. Mei, the Fifth Mizukage, stated as much. Period. That's a fact. Yagura's true persona matters not, so drop it. He was controlled by Obito throughout his tenure as Mizukage, as evidenced by Kisame's account, Danzo's account, Ao's account, and even Mei's account. You can speculate all you want. That's fact.
