As a child, Robin studied archeology and history on an island named Ohara, and became an official archaeologist at the age of eight. Her mother Nico Olvia left her when she was two years old to do illegal research on the One Piece world's lost history.

She was 24 years old when she travelled to the nation of '''Arabasta''' which was where she met Sir [[Crocodile (One Piece)|Crocodile]] who was one of the [[Seven Warlords of the Sea]]. He came to learn of her ability to read the Poneglyphs and recruited her in his search for the ancient weapon known as '''Pluton''' that was believed to be hidden within the desert country. In exchange, he offered her his protection and she came to join the ranks of his secret criminal organization known as [[Baroque Works]]. As '''Miss All-Sunday''', she came to be the only agent of the organization to be aware that Sir Crocodile was their secret leader. Meanwhile, Robin managed to stay safely hidden away from the attention of the World Government for the next 4 years.

She even remains calm when talking about morbid subjects, often shocking her crewmates.

Biography

Nico Robin (Japanese: ニコ・ロビン, Hepburn: Niko Robin)

As a child, Robin studied archeology and history on an island named Ohara, and became an official archaeologist at the age of eight. Her mother Nico Olvia left her when she was two years old to do illegal research on the One Piece world's lost history. Olvia was captured and the Navy discovered, that the scholars of Ohara shared Olvia's forbidden goal. She escaped and rushed to Ohara to warn her colleagues but did not make it in time. The Marines bombarded Ohara and burned the island to the ground, killing all of the inhabitants. Robin was spared and allowed to escape by Vice-Admiral Kuzan, who would later be known as Admiral Aokiji.

As she was the only known person left with the ability to read the text of the forbidden history, the World Government placed a high bounty on her head. In order to survive and to pursue her mother's dream, she spent two decades in the service of various pirates and other criminal organizations. Due to her excessive bounty, she was consistently betrayed, eroding her ability to trust others.

She was 24 years old when she travelled to the nation of Arabasta which was where she met Sir Crocodile who was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He came to learn of her ability to read the Poneglyphs and recruited her in his search for the ancient weapon known as Pluton that was believed to be hidden within the desert country. In exchange, he offered her his protection and she came to join the ranks of his secret criminal organization known as Baroque Works. As Miss All-Sunday, she came to be the only agent of the organization to be aware that Sir Crocodile was their secret leader. Meanwhile, Robin managed to stay safely hidden away from the attention of the World Government for the next 4 years.

At the age of 24, she went to work for Sir Crocodile as "Miss All Sunday", and met the Straw Hat pirates during the Arabasta rebellion. After the defeat of Crocodile, she stowed away on board the Going Merry. She convinced the crew of the Straw Hat Pirates to accept her as a comrade. She reasoned that, since Luffy he saved her life when she had no reason to live, he was responsible for her.

She stays with the crew, until Aokiji appeared once again. The Straw Hats are quickly dispatched by his overwhelming power. He informs the crew that every organization Nico Robin has associated with has eventually been destroyed. Shortly after that, on Water 7, she is approached by the CP9 and her crew is threatened a second time, she gives herself up in exchange for her comrades safety.

When the Straw Hats learn of her motives, they chase the CP9 to the judicial stronghold of Enies Lobby, while Robin persistently refuses to be rescued. In addition to the safety of her friends, Robin turns herself in out of fear that the Straw Hats would come to regard her as a burden, and betray her like her previous associates.

When the Straw Hats learn this truth, they don't hesitate to exclaim their devotion for their comrades by burning the government's flag. With the symbol of her prosecution going up in flames, she realizes how far they would go to protect her and declares her newfound desire to live. With the defeat of the CP9 and the obliteration of Enies Lobby, Robin becomes an official member of the Straw Hat Pirates.
