Depending on your muse, this verse can either take place in a) canon one piece verse, or b) during the  Muromachi Period of Japan, albeit in a fantasy setting to explain the non-Japanese names, much like the anime dororo itself.  The basic themes and role Robin has is the same.

one piece universe: Ohara burns in flames, but Robin isn’t so lucky as to escape this time.  Taken by the World Government and into the heart of Pangea itself, she is tortured and stripped of her humanity - her eyes, limbs, vocal chords, ear drums, even the skin on her face.  It’s only when Fisher Tiger comes to liberate the slaves of Mariejois that someone rescues her.  After being dropped off at Fishman Island and left to ‘heal’ by Queen Otohime’s side (amongst numerous assassination attempts on her life by fishmen), Robin learnt to live through one reason and one reason alone; vengeance, and to regain her humanity, one part of her at a time.

muromachi period japan-inspired universe: literally just dororo but replace hyakkimaru with robin - except.  Instead of being an offering to the devils by her parents, Robin, as a baby, is taken in by the local warlord and offered to the Divine Gods in exchange for the oncoming war to avoid their homeland.  Years later, Robin is on a quest to slay spirits/angels/devils and regain her humanity, that she never had.  

but how can robin communicate and how can I write her if she has no senses or limbs?  good question!

She’s put together like a doll, with swords for limbs and prosthetics for her eyes, and a mask for her face.  She slowly regains parts of her body over time as she defeats demons, in the second version of the verse, or as she defeats those who harmed her/Ohara, in terms of the first version.  Edgy, I know.  But I’m the king of edge.  Anyway, that’s the AU.
