[One Piece] The Wild Deer

One day, a gigantic memory sky screen appeared in the world of pirates, wildly broadcasting people's pasts without their consent.

Today, after Shanks, the next victim was the renowned and dedicated Marine Admiral Lasseter Lane. Everything changed as the sky screen exposed her secrets...

The image of the Marines, the prestige of Marine heroes, the reputation of the nobles, and even Admiral Lane's own relentless slander of the Marines in the past!

Welcome to the story of a newbie at work trying to escape! A girl who dreams of going home but gets forcibly detained by a Marine bully: Want to live life on your own terms? Then join the Marines, girl!

"Like hell I'm joining! You Marine kidnapper!"

So said Admiral Lane during her days at the training camp.

[At their reunion]

"If I had another chance to choose, I'd have strangled that child the very moment we first met."

Her former family member climbed atop her in a frenzy and clamped both hands around her throat.

"But you didn't do it... did you?"

[At their parting]

"...I want you to live, Lane. I want you to remember everyone... I want you to be tormented by these feelings for the rest of your life, never, ever able to live in peace of mind again!"

She placed one last handful of dirt on the sixty-fourth grave, knowing that one day she would return to her family's side.

[Remember their names in your heart, and walk the path of justice called steadfastness.]

"I'll rebuild all of this. Just watch, Kuzan."

She drew her sword and pointed it at the sky.

"As long as I live, those people will have to sleep with one eye open. They won't know peace or rest, and they'll live in constant fear. That's what the beasts who treat human lives like weeds deserve!"

[Let the world see!]

The blood-covered figure broke through the night, becoming a blade pointed at the demons, with no thought for the countdown to her own death.

The young Marine couldn't see her enemy, but she could still clearly remember the lights of countless homes shining behind her.

[Raise your voices!]

"Everyone, prepare for combat at sea!"

Inside the encirclement of howling wind and torrential rain, a white warship stood alone and without backup. Amid the waves, the commander stood at the bow like a statue of iron.

"No reinforcements are coming. Abandon ship and do your best to escape while you can."

"...Me?"

"Of course I'm staying to hold them off. I won't let my men be killed in some underhanded scheme without even knowing why!"

[If neither an iron wall nor cold, rigid rules can protect the people I love, then I'll become the strongest wall in the world, and make the world's toughest rules myself.]

The woman rubbed the little boy's head. "I'm going to build an orphanage here to take in children who've been abandoned and left homeless. We'll call it Jenny's Home. Would you like to be its first member?"

"Don't worry. No one will come and cause trouble again."

"After all, I'm a super-strong rising star among the Marines."

This is a story of protection called the Road to Redemption, an adventure called the Road to Growth.

We move forward. We bear witness.
