Daughter of the Sea (One Piece Live Action)

End of Season Episode 14: DAUGHTER OF THE SEA

"What's going on?"

"Had a good nap?" Zoro droned with an evident hint of sarcasm as Coral came to stand by the railing next to him, which inevitably flew over her sleepy head as she nodded enthusiastically. He stared at her for a moment, before he pointed his chin to the lower level and smiled. She double-looked at him and rubbed her eyes again.

"It's a little piece of home to take with you in our journey." Luffy spoke to Nami on the level below, while the navigator looked around at the line of tangerine trees standing at the stern of the Going Merry. Coral's jaw fell at the view.

"And I can whip up tangerine tarts anytime you want." Sanji continued from downstairs. Zoro leaned his elbows over the railing as Coral turned to him with questioning eyes.

"Their mother died in one of Arlong's raids." He muttered stoically. "It's how she first came involved with them." Coral listened intently at the new information, her own eyes lost in the air. "The lady was a tangerine farmer. Figures... After everything she's been through, we thought-"

"You?!" Coral whispered back at him. His eyes turned sternly at her. Her cheeks burned red at her implication.

"It was the cook's idea." He responded blankly.

"Sanji said it wasn't entirely his." She raised her brows at him. Zoro turned away, cutting the conversation short, but she refused to let it slide so easily. "Look at you-" She rushed to his left side, beaming as she leaned over the railing searching for his face. "What a thoughtful pirate hunter you turned out to be. Had I know-" He turned again to now face the mast, letting out a deep sigh. She then figured maybe she shouldn't push his buttons too much. She cleared her throat and took a step to stand in front of him.

"Now," She began in a business tone mode.

"What?"

"Regarding Sanji-" He irked a brow at her, "His name is Sanji. Not cook, not waiter. Rude." He blinked once at her scolding, "I've heard you two bickering around so much it can't be healthy for the long run if we all want to get to the Grand Line in one piece. In fact, I just saw you smiling before." She pointed at his face. "You keep doing that!"

"What's up with this?" Zoro scoffed with annoyance.

"I'm sure Luffy will like to see that in the crew-" She kept rambling with her hands on her hips.

"Is that an order?" He interrupted her as she mimicked putting on a full teeth smile. "Anything else?" Coral's eyes fluttered as she was left momentarily wondering if there was, indeed, anything else. After a moment, her mouth opened again.

"Please, save some of all that thoughtfulness for me, too, yes?" She walked closer to him, her eyes flickering towards the others. He stared at her. "Remember, you said you would be nicer around me-"

"Never said that."

"On a five percent, you said!" She raised her index and thumbs together.

"I believe we agreed on a one percent." Zoro stretched his back turning to see the other three climb towards them.

"What's going on?" Nami came asking.

"I think I heard my name." Sanji said.

"Zoro's teaching me how to use a sword." Coral blurted.

"When did I-" He turned to her, before his eyes caught everyone else's in the crew looking at him, looking at him already with high expectations.

"That would actually come in pretty handy, all things considered." Nami blinked patting the swordsman in the shoulder, while the same threw daggers at the innocent looking captain's sister.
