A Retired Knight’s Voyage Log

I’ve been in this world for years now, but I’ve never forgotten my memories from my previous life as a soldier in the Kingdom Army, following the Sword Saint to hunt down the White Whale. Even though our supposedly favorable battle took an unexpected turn and the situation changed completely, I felt neither hatred nor humiliation. I fulfilled my duty. I didn’t retreat or falter; I fought to the very last second, battling the enemy and protecting my comrades. That is the honor of a knight. I say this to make it clear that I truly upheld my knightly code in my previous life and was always well-mannered. So the fact that none of my three adopted sons grew up to be a proper gentleman really isn’t a failure of my parenting! Andrea: The Devonshire family has produced gentlemen for generations! ASL: Mom Lia! Andrea (turning away in anguish): …But it looks like I might be the one to end that tradition. 1. The heroine is a native of the Re:Zero world who transmigrated to the world of One Piece. She’s a swordswoman with the spirit of a knight. This story could also be called How Did a Retired Knight End Up on a Sailing Adventure After Transmigrating?, A Knight Captain’s Guide to Raising Kids, or My Three Problem Children. 2. The story takes place before the main One Piece plot, and focuses on the previous era. The heroine is the same age as Shanks and raises ASL. The focus is mainly on family, with Shanks as the love interest, though romance makes up only about five percent of the story. 3. As usual, please don’t mention other people’s stories in my comments, and don’t mention mine in theirs. Thank you. 4. This is a self-indulgent story, written mainly for my own enjoyment and relaxation, so I’ll write as I please and you can read as you please. Theme: Celebrate the spirit of adventure and freedom, and emphasize the importance of friendship and family
