One Piece: The Wind and My Captain

The White-Haired Ghost Princess and the Three Swords

Charlotte Rety's Voyage

"Can an abandoned child still carve out her own happiness?"

White hair, golden eyes, none of the Three-Eye Tribe's powers, and none of her mother's love: she is Charlotte Rety, Big Mom's abandoned infant, found by a wayward samurai and raised as a boy. The samurai taught her the Three-Sword Style and called her an idiot, yet sharpened her blades for her on nights when he coughed blood. When she was fourteen, he abandoned her with the most inept lie imaginable: "You're the worst student I've ever had!"

Rety knew he was lying, but she chose to turn away, wandering alone with three swords.

Until she met a group of even more foolish "liars"

A boy in a straw hat chomped on meat and shouted, "Be my crewmate!"

A green-haired swordsman frowned. "Don't copy my Three-Sword Style... Hey, you're holding your swords the wrong way!"

A blond cook brought her tea. "Tch, what does a brat like you need booze for?"

The power of the Happiness Fruit lets her slash out illusions, but the real happiness was something this group taught her:

In Tottoland, Pudding trembled and said, "You're that 'dead little sister'..."

But Rety laughed. "No, I'm the 'Happy Swordswoman'!"

Her blades reflected an illusion of Big Mom, while behind her, the Straw Hat Pirates' flag snapped in the wind.

Slash through the past with three swords, and toast the future with a cup of tea

This is the story of a child abandoned by the world who found a home of her own
