Uagh... Zeff on the baratie with lil Sanji

There being a roden problem after visiting an island, now there are about three families of rata inside the ship at least

Zeff after a week gets fed up with it and spots one and marches over to kill it himself... Sanji, who's been acting weird this past week runs in front of zeff and the rat, shaking and sniffling, "stop it, dad!" Curling in on the small rodent as it instantly jumps onto the boy arms on instinct.

Sanji realizes what he said and instantly shuts down, cradling the rat with an unseeing expression as his mind reels in the fact his actually tried to compare the two.

Zeff, who once wondered if the brat would ever call him that, suddenly gets a cold, dreadful feeling in his gut.
