Marie is a nurse on the Sabaody Archipelago. She was helping transport a wounded man to a nearby hospital, when they encountered Saint Charloss, a Tenryuubito. Saint Charloss then refuses to let Marie pass with the wounded man ,and then kicks the heavily wounded man to the ground, saying he will help him to die. While Marie was kneeling, shocked, Charloss looked at her and forced her to go away with him to become his thirteenth wife against her will. When her fianc&eacute;, who was helping to transport the wounded man, got up and pleaded with Charloss not to take Marie away, he just shot him for &quot;daring to stand in his presence.&quot;  She was taken away by force, as no one would or could help her before they left.  She was set free along with the other slaves of Charolss's family after Luffy's attack on the Tenryuubito.

Gold Roger was known as the Pirate King, the strongest and most infamous being to have sailed the Grand Line. The capture and death of Roger by the World Government brought a change throughout the world. His last words before his death revealed the location of the greatest treasure in the world, One Piece. It was this revelation that brought about the Grand Age of Pirates, men who dreamed of finding One Piece (which promises an unlimited amount of riches and fame), and quite possibly the most coveted of titles for the person who found it, the title of the Pirate King. 
Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy that defies your standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece, are his reasons of becoming a pirate. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece.

As a child, Monkey D. Luffy was inspired to become a pirate by listening to the tales of the buccaneer "Red-Haired" Shanks. But his life changed when Luffy accidentally ate the Gum-Gum Devil Fruit and gained the power to stretch like rubber...at the cost of never being able to swim again! Years later, still vowing to become the king of the pirates, Luffy sets out on his adventure...one guy alone in a rowboat, in search of the legendary "One Piece," said to be the greatest treasure in the world...
