Pure iron oxidizes without the high carbon content to make it stainless and will absolutely rust if you don't at least oil it after washing with soap, but seasoning it properly definitely makes a difference in how it cooks.

I own 4 different size/shape cast iron and I speak from experience. Any decent dish soap will still strip the oils that are acting as a barrier to the open air and oxidation, doesn't have to be lye-based
