In the morning in Pazu's Town he and Henri ask Duffi about Sheeta. He wears a white tuxedo. When Pazu and Sheeta run towards Duffi, Sheeta loose her hat. Immediately he recognize her and runs after her. Duffi instantly protects her. Now he shows his muscle and Duffi do the same. Then he hits him in the stomach, which leads to the brawl in the town.

Later on in the story, he is always alongside his gang fighting the army and chasing Sheeta. When Sheeta joins his gang on the Tiger Moth, Charles wants to make a good impression on her. He goes to the galley and offers her flowers. But Charles isn't so happy, when he finds out his brothers are eager to impress Sheeta, too.
