((Cinematic Pov)) Dawn breaks over the churning sea, casting long shadows across the deck of the Baratie. The kitchen is silent, save for the rhythmic creaking of the floating restaurant.

In the shadows, the ghost of a father figure watches over the youngest cook, Sanji, whose journey began with a single act of mercy amidst the storm.
