Personality

Compote has a calm and serious demeanor, as she did not react when Jinbe stood up to Big Mom. She was also one of the few siblings who maintained her composure during Big Mom’s cake-driven rampage.

Having took part in the Vinsmokes assassination plot, Compote can be considered very loyal to her family and crew. In fact, Compote was silently displeased when Jinbe betrayed the Big Mom Pirates and went against her mother.

Abilities and Powers

As Minister of Fruits, Compote has authority over Fruits Island in Totto Land, and as an officer of the Big Mom Pirates, she holds a high position in the crew and has authority over lower-ranking members. When Vito was looking through the attendants at the wedding, he noted that Compote was one of several “monsters” present there, comparing her to her younger Sweet Commander siblings Katakuri and Smoothie, which implies formidable strength.

Compote possesses a strong will, being able to withstand Big Mom’s Haoshoku Haki and remain conscious from her loud screams.

History

Past

Charlotte Compote was born 49 years ago as Charlotte Linlin’s second child. At some point, she became Totto Land’s Minister of Fruits and an officer of the Big Mom Pirates.

Whole Cake Island Saga

Whole Cake Island Arc

Compote attended Big Mom’s Tea Party and wedding ceremony for Charlotte Pudding and Sanji. After Monkey D. Luffy started causing chaos at the wedding venue, Compote witnessed Jinbe officially resigning from the Big Mom Pirates.

As Big Mom assaulted the fortress that the Straw Hats, Fire Tank Pirates, and Vinsmoke Family were hiding in, the Big Mom Pirates stood by and prepared to attack anyone who leaves the fortress. Right after Bege transformed back into human form and the Vinsmoke Family jumped out, the Big Mom Pirates fired a volley of bullets at them, but Ichiji and Niji blocked them.

Just when the Big Mom Pirates routed Luffy’s group, Bege’s crew, and the Vinsmoke Family, the Tamatebako dropped to the base of the chateau and exploded, causing the castle to topple over. The Big Mom Pirates were saved when Streusen used his ability to turn the falling castle into soft cake. Compote then stood with some of her siblings and crew, reflecting on recent events. They were then alerted by Smoothie and were surprised to see Big Mom having a craving illness for wedding cake.

Later, Compote, Daifuku, Smoothie, and other forces of the Big Mom Pirates assembled a fleet to hunt down the Straw Hats, the Fire Tank Pirates, and the Sun Pirates before any of them could escape Totto Land. Compote appeared again at Whole Cake Island as Mont-d’Or promised Morgans that the Straw Hats would be crushed by the Big Mom Pirates’ forces.

Wano Country Saga

Wano Country Arc

When Big Mom tried to infiltrate Wano Country, Compote accompanied her mother and crew as they attempted to climb the waterfall into the country. Just before they reached the top of the waterfall, Big Mom noticed King flying towards them and Compote looked up in shock. King then attacked the ship, causing the ship to fall off the waterfall and Big Mom to fall into the sea.

The crew later heard about Big Mom’s newly formed alliance with Kaidou. On the day of the Fire Festival, the Big Mom Pirates attempted to climb the waterfall again, but their ship was knocked down by Marco.

Trivia

  • Compote is a European dessert dish in which chopped fruits are cooked with sweet spices and mixed with sugar syrup to eat, fitting with the Charlotte Family’s food-themed names.
  • Her outfit, particularly her fruity hat, is somewhat reminiscent of Carmen Miranda.
  • The concept of the first son Perospero being Minister of Candy and the first daughter Compote being Minister of Fruits may be a reference to glucose and fructose.
