History
Whole Cake Island Arc
Laurin attended the tea party and wedding between Vinsmoke Sanji and Charlotte Pudding, where he took part in Big Mom's plan to assassinate the Vinsmoke Family. After Brook broke Mother Carmel's portrait, Laurin worried about Big Mom's reaction.[1]
When Bege revealed his true intentions, he was shocked and confused.[4] He later joined his crew's siege on the alliance.[5]
As the alliance tried to escape, he was blown away from Luffy and Big Mom's clash.[6] As the Whole Cake Chateau toppled as a result of the Tamatebako explosion, Laurin lost his balance and fell with it,[7] but he was rescued swiftly by Streusen.[8]
He was recruited by Charlotte Daifuku to the pursuit unit[9] that was assigned to go after the Straw Hats.[10] During the pursuit, he was shocked to see Big Mom going after their enemies personally.[11] After the Straw Hats ran into the Seducing Woods, Laurin and his squad were defeated when Nami used Zeus to bring a thunderbolt down on them.[12][13]

Trivia
- His name may be a reference to lauric acid (known as ラウリン酸 raurinsan in Japanese), which is a major compotent of coconut milk and coconut oil. Laurin is also the name of a specific brand of coconut oil. This fits with the food-themed names of the Charlotte Family and Big Mom Pirates.
