She holds the position of the eldest child and the sole daughter within the Vinsmoke Family, establishing her as Sanji’s older sister.

Reiju Vinsmoke Biography
Reiju, a slender young woman with shoulder-length, darker pink hair that conceals her right eye and curls upward at the tips, is a prominent character in the One Piece series.
Her blue eyes are occasionally adorned with light pink lipstick. Resembling her Vinsmoke siblings, she possesses distinct curly eyebrows forming a spiral reminiscent of the number “6.”
Unlike her brothers Sanji and Yonji, however, her eyebrows exhibit a symmetrical swirl in opposing directions.
Notably, both of her upper thighs bear tattoos of the number “6,” symbolizing affiliation with the organization “Germa 66.”
Young Past Days
During her childhood, Reiju sported shorter hair and a dark headband.
Her attire included a light pink dress featuring the letter “Z” on the right side and other dresses adorned with the number “0” in various forms.
Additionally, she typically wore a dark ascot. As the eldest child in her family, she once surpassed her brothers in height, a distinction she eventually lost as they all outgrew her by the time they reached adulthood.
While leading Germa 66’s forces, Reiju dons a raid suit, consisting of a light pink dress with a central split down to her stomach, adorned with gold target-shaped symbols referencing the “0” (Rei) in her name.
Completing her ensemble are dark pink gauntlets, black headphones bearing the number “66,” and a patterned purple and black cloak resembling moth wings.
Outside the raid suit, she has been seen with a slim purple headband, a short white satiny dress featuring a frilled neckline and a pink cravat, and dark high heels.
For formal occasions, she adds a red thigh-length royal cape clasped in front of her neck.
In the Whole Cake Chateau infirmary, Reiju wore a white frilled dress shirt, a dark thong, and a bandage wrapped around her left leg.
During the Tea Party, her attire changed to a short, sleeveless dress with a frilled V-neckline and dark tights reaching halfway up her thighs.
She retained a royal cape, similar to her previous one but light-colored and draped over a single shoulder.
When chaos ensued, she reverted to her raid suit.

Reiju Vinsmoke Personality
Benevolence Beneath the Mask
Unlike her harsh and abusive brothers, Reiju possesses a kind and empathetic nature, although she often conceals it behind a cool and indifferent demeanor.

The militaristic upbringing of her family and her father’s stern disapproval of compassion contribute to her preference for displaying kindness only when it doesn’t jeopardize her own comfort or safety.
During her childhood, she openly laughed at Sanji’s suffering under his brothers’ cruelty.
However, she confided in Sanji, revealing that her laughter was a defense mechanism to avoid becoming a target herself.
In private, Reiju treated Sanji with care and sympathy, expressing concern for him even when rumors of his death circulated.
Despite her instinct for self-preservation, Sanji remembers Reiju and their mother as the only family members who treated him with compassion.
Concealed Disdain
Reiju’s general demeanor is mild and reserved, and she rarely discloses her true thoughts and emotions to others.
Throughout her life, she masked her shame and disdain for her Vinsmoke heritage by outwardly enjoying their luxurious royal lifestyle and falsely respecting the family’s historical strength, achievements, and privileges.
However, her intrinsic moral compass leads her to perceive her kingdom as a destructive war machine that the world would be better off without.
This perspective extends to her father and brothers (excluding Sanji), as well as to herself and her actions as a mercenary.
Reiju, like her brother Ichiji, prefers silent contemplation, concealing her true thoughts behind an enigmatic smile. Sanji remains the only person to whom she openly expresses her true feelings and thoughts.
Intelligent Manipulator
Reiju exhibits high intelligence and intuition, being the sole individual (among both her family and the Straw Hats) to suspect that Pudding may have ulterior motives.
She demonstrates a calculating side, using her awareness of Sanji’s weakness for attractive women to convince him to accept his arranged marriage by presenting him with ten beautiful chambermaids.
In their first encounter, she skillfully charmed the Sanji retrieval team, humiliated Yonji, and apologized for his behavior to avoid a confrontation with the Straw Hats.
Additionally, Reiju’s occasional actions and flirtatious manner of speech, such as sucking out poison from Luffy without hesitation, contribute to her complex and multifaceted personality.
Reiju Vinsmoke Abilities and Powers
As a Vinsmoke Family member, Reiju wields political influence over the Germa Kingdom and the World Government.
Unlike typical royal family members, she, along with her father and siblings, serves as a commander in their kingdom’s military, leading forces directly in combat and other activities.
Reiju’s sharp intuition led her to suspect Pudding’s true nature, a feat acknowledged by Pudding herself.
Her excellent memory allows her to recall a heated argument between her parents when she was only three years old.
Demonstrating a strong will, she withstood Big Mom’s Conqueror’s Haki burst and remained conscious after a powerful scream.
Physical Abilities
Thanks to genetic enhancements and rigorous training, Reiju possesses superhuman physical prowess. Similar to her brothers, she has an Exoskeleton, an outer skeleton granting enhanced durability.
Notably, she exhibits an extraordinary recovery rate from injuries.
Reiju’s immense strength is evident from bending metal bars at a young age. She effortlessly restrained a rampaging Luffy with one hand and swiftly pulled him into the infirmary.
Proficient in powerful kicks like Sanji, Niji, and Judge, she kicked Yonji off their ship and successfully used kicks against Charlotte Smoothie, compelling her to release Nami.
Her rapid movement capabilities were showcased when she instantly evaded Perospero’s candy wave.
