Épisode Les cerisiers d'Hiluluk S02E08 - One Piece (2023) Saison 2

One Piece - 2x08 - Deer and Loathing in Drum Kingdom

Drum Kingdom, Woods: Wapol's camp

K.M.: King Wapol has returned to save Drum Kingdom.

Dalton: The only man who could've saved this kingdom blew himself up in front of us.

Wapol: This kingdom is my birthright. Mine! And no one will ever take it from me again.

Dalton: There is no throne fit for a king who abandons his people... You ate a devil fruit.

Wapol: My body has become like a factory. Able to consume, transform and combine anything I eat into anything I want.

Dalton: You're a monster.

Wapol: I'm not the only monster here. Dalton.

Dalton: I'll show you a monster.

Wapol: Ah, there he is. My once loyal beast.

Fight

Wapol: Finally, you show me the respect I deserve.

Dalton: You command respect from no one! Where are your soldiers? Twenty doctors and two halfwits aren't enough to put you back on your throne.

Wapol: Don't fret... My soldiers weren't being mutinous... They were just digesting.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Alley

Miss All Sunday: A desert lily? So out of place in the snow.

Vivi: Miss All Sunday.

Miss All Sunday: So you survived Little Garden. Hmm. But you're still a long way from your own castle.

Vivi: You hound us again and again.

Miss All Sunday: You and Baroque Works have unfinished buisiness.

Vivi: Isn't tiresome being at the beck and call of a sociopath?

Miss All Sunday: It's like any good partnership. He's got his agenda, and I've got mine. Sometimes, like now, they overlap... I wonder who's right about you. Him... Or me.

Vivi: You can try and kill me, but I will not go down without a fight.

Miss All Sunday: That's what intrigues me about you... You should know that Mr. Zero gave Wapol his very own devil fruit. The Munch Munch Fruit, to be precise. And now he's on his way to reclaim his throne.

Vivi: Why are you telling me this?

Miss All Sunday: Because I wonder if you and the Straw Hats can stop him.

Vivi: This is not a game... And it is not their fight. They are just helping.

Miss All Sunday: Come now, Princess. Like any good leader, like any strong woman, you are going to try and shield others and blame yourself for this. And I'm here to tell you, you should... As you watch your friends die, do so with the knowledge that the same fate shall befall the people of Alabasta... And it is all your fault... I almost forgot. You're going to love what he did with his army.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Watch Tower

Usopp: Zoro?

----------

Usopp: Shit.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Street

Vivi: Usopp! Zoro!

Usopp: We're got trouble.

Vivi: We're got trouble. King Wapol's returned. He's heading to the castle. And he's got a devil fruit.

Usopp: That would explain the army of monsters marching towards the village right now.

Vivi: Where's Dalton?

Zoro: He went down to investigate. He hasn't been back.

Usopp: Those things must have got him.

Vivi: We need to get Luffy.

Zoro: Dalton told me to protect the town. It's got to be you, Usopp.

Usopp: Ooh...

Vivi: No. I'll go. I've seen what you both are capable of. The villagers need Captain Usopp and Mr. Bushido. I'll go get Luffy.

Zoro: How are you gonna make it in time?

Usopp: I can help with that.

----------

Drum Kingdom: Mountain

Usopp: I figured something like this would happen. And since the path is too long to follow and none of us are as strong as Luffy, we need a plan B.

Vivi: Have you tested it yet?

Usopp: Just finished it, so no.

Vivi: Okay... How does it work?

Usopp: Okay, the launching mechanism is here. The grappling hook will then latch onto the cable in the spool here, and it'll pull you up. It's not enough to make it in one shot, so find your footing, reload, and keep firing until you reach the top.

Vivi: Okay.

Usopp: Hold on!

Vivi: How fast will it... Aahhhh!

Usopp: Well don, Princess... She'll be fine.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Nursery

Nami: Always trying to impress me.

Sanji: I'm trying to help you.

Nami: You're really worried, huh? I... I'm feeling better, I promise.

Sanji: Yeah, well, I'll feel better when you get out of bed... How does it taste?

Nami: Mmm.

Sanji: I've added some more flavor now you can taste again.

Nami: This is great.

Sanji: Yeah.

Nami: Zeff taught you well.

Sanji: Well, you know, the old man gave me a trick here and there. Though he'd never hear me say that. But, um... I'm self-taught. Through and through... Started with my mum.

Nami: You would cook with your mom?

Sanji: Uh, not with her. For her... My mum was relly sick when I was growing up. And I was really little. I just wanted to make her feel better, and cooking was a way I could show my love for her... Didn't start off great. I used to make her these lunches with just anything I could find lying around the kitchen... Mushy banana amuse-bouche. Old fish head with undercooked rice. It was a real smorgasbord of sick. And I would march down the hallway, head held all high. Nurse's face would turn green whenever I walked in the room. But not my mum... You wouldn't be able to tell she was sick from the way she looked at me. Ray of sunshine emanating from that bead... She'd always go, "Oh, my little prince, what have you brought for me today?" She used to look at the lunchbox... And she'd just take a bite, and she'd smile... Made me feel like I was really helping, you know? And then I got better. Honing my skills, my flavor profiles, my savory combinations... But while I was getting better, she was getting worse. And every time she'd finish her lunch, I'd hug her so tight it propably took her breath away... And then came the day where I didn't have to make any more lunches... So... Every meal I make... I'm making for her.

Nami: Sanji, I...

Sanji: I...

Luffy: Hey, you guys! Vivi's here!

Sanji: Huh.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle

Vivi: That's why I'm here. Wapol won't be far behind.

Kureha: Surprised a scrawny thing like you managed to get all the way up here.

Vivi: It's what needed to be done.

Sanji: That's our Vivi.

Luffy: So this king guy is coming after us. And now he has devil fruit powers?

Sanji: I guess those Baroque Works agents really weren't kidding when they said they wouldn't leave us be.

Luffy: Okay... I'll kick his ass.

Kureha: Hmm.

Vivi: We need to get down the mountain and help the others.

Kureha: Oh yeah. We're going down the mountain, all right, but not for a fight... We're going back into hiding.

Luffy: You're running away? Just use your witch magic powers and fight.

Kureha: You want to rumble? Good on you. I watch Wapol terrorize this country for years. He was a piece of shit before. Now he has a devil fruit? I'm not sticking around to see what new horrors he brings. Pack up quick, Chopper. We'll take one of the secret passageways.

Chopper: We can't leave. If there's gonna be a battle people are gonna get hurt. We have to stay and help them.

Kureha: Help them? The people that called you a monster. The people who shot at you. You want to help them?

Chopper: Yes, because that's what a doctor does.

Kureha: Have fun dying, kid.

Sanji: Okay. And we're going to get Nami.

Vivi: Is she.. She doing better?

Luffy: All thanks to this little guy right here.

Chopper: Well, almost. Her treatment isn't finished. I can transfer her to a walking IV so we can move her.

Luffy: All right! Then let's go back down the mountain.

Sanji: You good with that, Vivi?

Vivi: I'll be fine. I'll warm myself up while you get Nami sorted.

Sanji: All right, Chopper. Let's go.

Chopper: Right.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Street

Zoro: We'll hold them off. Take what you need and find a safe place to shelter.

Usopp: This way. Hurry. Hurry up.

Villager 1: Here.

Zoro: Come on.

Villager 2: Hurry!

----------

Usopp: Maybe I should go with them. In case they need my protection, you know?

Zoro: What's an army of monsters to the hero of Little Garden?

----------

Drum Kingdom: Woods

Kureha: Not my problem... Ah.

----------

Kureha: Hey! Where do you think you're going?

Dalton: To fight.

Kureha: Huh. What a hero. I'm sure the townsfolk will be thrilled to have a shuffling corpse arrive just in time to die alongside them.

Dalton: When does a man die?

Kureha: You don't get to say those words. His blood is on your hands, and I will not let you tarnish his memory.

Dalton: This country is sick. You and I both know that. Dr. Hiriluk knew it too. He wanted to heal this land, and I let him die... For that, I am truly sorry... But I cannot make the same mistake again. I can't let anyone else die because of that tyrant Wapol... This is our last chance to be free of him. If we don't stand up now, we will forever be under his heel... I'm gonna fight, whatever the cost, with or without your help.

Kureha: Screw it... You overdid it... I'll bill you later.

Dalton: Ahhhh!

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle

Vivi: We have to hurry. Wapol could be at the village by now. What's this?

Luffy: I grabbed all the food I could find. No sense letting it go to waste here.

Vivi: Is this Nami's coat?

Luffy: Yeah. You reminded me of how cold it is outside. I couldn't find mine, so I'm borrowing hers.

Vivi: She is going to kill you if you damage it.

Luffy: Relax. What's gonna happen?

Wapol: Well, well, well. Princess Vivi of Alabasta.

Luffy: Who's this guy?

Vivi: Wapol.

Wapol: King Wapol! And captain of the Bliking Pirates. And I have returned to claim what is mine! You've pissed off a lot of powerful people, Princess. What the hell is he doing?

Luffy: Stretching... With everything you're saying, it sound like we're gonna get into a fight.

Wapol: You don't wanna fight me, punk. I eat pretzel sticks like you for breakfast!

Luffy: Well... Then let's hope you're hungry.

Vivi: Luffy, wait... It's my turn.

Wapol: Your turn for what, exactly? You're still the same scared little girl from those years ago. No fight. No bravery. And it's that lack of a spine that's gonna get you killed and anyone else stands in my way because that, dear Princess, is the sign of a true... King! Something your fool of a father never understood.

Vivi: A king is but a man. And a crown, it's just a hat. The suffering of your people shows you know nothing about what it means to lead. My father does. Baroque Works will not break him. And you will not break me. There is a time for diplomacy. But now, it's a time for action. And I, Nefertari Vivi, daughter of Nefertari Cobra, am no coward!

Slap

Wapol: Well, if it's action you want, Princess... Allow me to oblige!

Fight

Vivi: Aah!

Luffy: Noce speech, Vivi... Now's my turn.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Street

Usopp: Looks like it's just you and me.

Maria: Not quite... Wapol may have taken our army, but doesn't mean we're helpless.

Usopp: He didn't just take your army. He ate your army. And he spit 'em back out looking like...

Explosion

Maria: Monsters.

Zoro: Nothing a sword can't fix.

Fireshots

Usopp: Take cover!

Villager 3: No!

Villager 4: Take cover!

Fight

Usopp: Hey! Ugly!

Usopp: Sure Kill Firestar!

Explosion

Usopp: Maybe he didn't hear me say "Sure Kill."

Fight

Usopp: These guys won't go down!

Zoro: Gotta keep fighting until they do.

Usopp: Woooooo!!!!

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Nursery

Sanji: Wapol's back! We're gonna get you out of here.

Nami: What's going on? Is Vivi okay?

Sanji: She's fine. We're gonna take you to her.

Chopper: Keep her still. I have to change her IV.

Sanji: You can't fool. You're gonna bruise her!

Nami: You guys!

Chopper: Which of us is a doctor.

Sanji: Did you say doctor or dinner?

Chopper: Stop being so stunbborn and let me do my job!

Nami: Sanji, I think you should listen to him.

Chopper: Oh shit.

K.M.: What the hell is that thing?

Chess: Whatever it is, let's kill it and find the doctor.

Nami: What the hell is going on?

Sanji: Baroque Works sent a super-powered king after us.

Chopper: And those are his henchmen.

Sanji: But it's okay, 'cause we're not gonna let them get to you or anyone else.

Chopper: You stay here. Keep your head down and your IV in.

Sanji: All right, Chopper. Time to be monsters.

Chopper: Yeah!

Chopper: Mm-hmm.

Sanji: What? Get off me!

Chopper: What do you mean? You're the one stuck to me!

Sanji: Let go of my leg!

Chopper: Would you stay still for a second?

Sanji: It's the wrong leg, dumbass!

Chopper: You're not helping!

Sanji: Neither are you!

K.M.: Ah, your teamwork is pathetic! Unlike me and my partner.

Chopper: Oh shit... Ahhh!

Sanji: Oh-Oh!

Chopper: Ah!

Sanji: Now then.

Sanji: Luffy? Vivi!

Luffy: Sanji! Nami! You missed it.

Vivi: Nami, you're okay!

Nami: I'm glad you're okay.

Chopper: He defeated Wapol?

Nami: Luffy, is that my coat?

Luffy: Is that Chopper? Whoa.a

Wapol: Ahhhhhh! How dare you?! Drum Kingdom is a member of the World Government. Attacking me is an international crime!

Luffy: That kind of stuff doesn't matter to a pirate. You'd know that if you really were one.

Wapol: Enough! I'm gonna blast you all to smithereens. Starting with that eyesore of a pirate flag!

Chopper: No!!

Explosion

Vivi: Luffy.

Chopper: No.

Wapol: Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! He's even dumber than I thought. Giving up his life for some silly meaningless scrap of fabric.

Luffy: Shows what you know, big mouth... The skull and crossbones isn't flown lightly. It's an unbreakable symbol... A symbol... Of conviction.

Wapol: But how? That was a direct hit!

Luffy: This flag isn't something to be mocked! Or shot at! Isn't that right, Chopper?

Chopper: That's right.

Luffy: Now stand back while I finish this guy.

Fight

Wapol: If a cannon won't kill you, I have other weapons I can use.

Fight

Chopper: So that's a pirate.

Nami: There's no pirate like Luffy.

Vivi: Luffy, you did it.

Chopper: Doctor... The kingdom is saved.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Village: Street

Usopp: We're gonna be okay. We're gonna be good, everybody... We got it. Classic Staw Hat situation right now.

Kureha: Someone's in good spirits. Keep it up... When we start working on those wounds, well, you may not be smiling much longer.

Doctor: Is it over?

Kureha: Oh no. It's just beginning.

Gunshot

Maria: Hey!

Kureha: Now let's get those chains off you. Tend to the injured. Put those skills to work. Now move!

Doctor: All right. Let's get to it.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle

Kureha: Convenient, isn't it?

Usopp: Mmm. I could've climbed it. I wad actually looking foward to climbing it. I'm a bit of a mountain goat, the way I navigate a... Mountain trail. Whoa.

Vivi: Usopp! Zoro!

Luffy: Hey, you guys made it!

Vivi: Thank goodness you're all all right.

Usopp: No big deal. Just fought some monsters.

Zoro: Where's Nami?

Usopp: Nami, you're okay!

Nami: Yeah, I'm fine... Finally, I don't feel like death anymore.

Kureha: You're welcome... Is that my coat?

Nami: Add it to my bill.

Zoro: What kept you? What were you guys doing up here all this time?

Luffy: Kicking the king's butt.

Dalton: That young man defeated Wapol?

Kureha: Well, I'll be damned.

Dalton: What of his two lieutenants?

Luffy: Sanji and Chopper took care of them.

Sanji: Piece of cake, to be honest.

Usopp: Who's Chopper?

Luffy: Him!

Chopper: Uh... Uh...

Usopp: Whoa!

Dalton: It's Hiriluk's son.

Chopper: Mm-mm.

Dalton: Thank you... All of you... Because you fought for us, this kingdom can be born again.

Kureha: Consider your bill paid in full.

Dalton: The people will have their leader.

----------

Luffy: Come on out, reindeer. Come with us.

Chopper: What? What do you mean?

Luffy: Let's go be pirates together.

Chopper: I would love to be a pirate with you all, but I can't.

Nami: What do you mean "can't"? You saved my life.

Vivi: We're going to need a doctor given how much trouble we get into.

Sanji: Your transformations are so cool. They'll be really useful in the battles to come.

Chopper: Stop! I'm very grateful to you all for being so nice to me and everything you've done, but I'm a reindeer. I have hooves and antlers and a blue nose. I'm not a human like the rest of you. I could never be part of your group. It's impossible! It's...

Luffy: Just shut up and come with us!

Zoro: That'll get him to join.

Chopper: Okay. I'll join you.

Luffy: Yeah!!!

Chopper: I'll meet you outside. There's something I have to do first.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Nursery

Chopper: Doctorine! I need to talk to you.

Kureha: Finally, my assistant shows up. You sure did a number around here. You're gonna be out foraging to replace any medicine you damaged.

Chopper: Doctorine, I'm leaving.

Kureha: Well, yeah. I just told you that you're going to be out forarging for any...

Chopper: I'm leaving with them... I'm gonna be their ship's doctor and sail around the world with them.

Kureha: You ungrateful little shit. After all I've done for you... Given you a home, taught you medicine.

Chopper: I'm very grateful for all you've done. But I have to chase my dreams.

Kureha: You? A little crybaby reindeer is gonna be a pirate? You will never survive out on the seas.

Chopper: That maybe true about me, but I'm also a man, and I have dreams of my own. And I won't be sailing alone I have my friends. You... You can't stop me!

Kureha: So you're gonna leave to follow your silly little dreams. Just tlike that old quack. You're gonna end up just like him... Come back here!

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Court

Luffy: Oh!

Usopp: Oh!

Sanji: Whoo!

Luffy: Here I come! Here I come!

Zoro: What's taking him so long?

Luffy: Okay, my turn.

Nami: Can't be easy, you know? Leaving home for the first time.

Usopp: Oh!

Luffy: Oh!

Sanji: Oh!

Usopp: Oh!

Luffy: Oh!

Sanji: Oh! Whoo!

Vivi: What is that?

Luffy: Whoa.

Chopper: Everybody, get in. We're going down the mountain and out to sea!

Luffy: Another Chopper?!

Usopp: I get the back seat!

Sanji: Ooh-ee!

Usopp: Luffy!

Luffy: Aah!

----------

Going Merry: Deck

Chopper: Whoa.

Vivi: Welcome aboard, Doctor.

Chopper: My very first pirate ship.

Luffy: Come on! Come on! It's time to head off! Let's go!

----------

Chopper: Hmm.

Usopp: I know what it feels like... Leaving home... But you don't have to be nervous... You're Straw Hat now.

Chopper: Hmm.

Usopp: The Going Merry is your home... And we got your back... Always.

Chopper: Oh. Oh crap! I left my backpack with all my supplies behind.

Nami: You mean this? It was ont the sleigh.

Chopper: But I didn't...

Nami: Doctorine. She must've known.

Chopper: Mmm.

Nami: What are those?

Chopper: It's a secret.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Balcony

Kureha: You found what I need.

Dalton: Found one in the armory... What do you need this for?

Kureha: I don't like tearful goodbyes. Hiriluk had a very particular idea of how to cure this country. In the end, he figured out how, but he never got to do it himself... Raise it up.

Dalton: Doctor, what is this?

Kureha: Just watch... Let's find out if he was right.

Cannonshot

----------

Going Merry: Deck

Nami: It's so... Beautiful.

Luffy: It's snow, but.. It looks like...

Chopper: Cherry blossoms.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Balcony

Kureha: Turn on the spotlights.

----------

Drum Kingdom: Village

Hiriluk: Once people lose hope, they give in to fear... We need to give them their hope back... The powerful emotion he experienced from looking...

----------

Drum Kingdom: Dr. Hiriluk's cabin

Hiriluk: At Cherry blossoms... Had healed him.

----------

Going Merry: Deck

Hiriluk: Nothing is impossible. We never, ever give up.

----------

Drum Kingdom, Castle: Balcony

Kureha: Go on, you foolish boy.

Dalton: If a man can bring cherry blossoms to this frozen land, then maybe a reindeer can be a pirate.

Kureha: What wonder fools are capable of.

Dalton: It's fools that have saved this place. Not just Dr. Hiriluk.

Kureha: Monkey D. Luffy.

Dalton: He is a special young man. Perhaps he will be the one to find the One Piece.

Kureha: He does share certain traits with Gol D. Roger.

Dalton: Gol D.? You mean Gold Roger.

Kureha: Is that what he's known by these days? Our reindeer has hitched his wagon to a very interesting one indeed. The Will of D. lives on... Cheers.

----------

Going Merry: Kitchen

Luffy: All right, everyone... Let's give a warm welcome to our new ship's doctor... Tonytony Chopper! Chopper!

Sanji: Chopper, Chopper, check this out! Yeah!

Usopp: Aah!

Zoro: Still got that dinosaur I killed?

Sanji: I never had one, seeing as you never killed any.

Usopp: Yeah!

Chopper: This is the most fun I've ever had. Can I try the knife thing?

Nami: Too much for you? I thought you'd be used to our antics by now.

Vivi: No, no, no, it's just...

Sanji: Want a beer?

Chopper: I prefer hot chocolate.

Vivi: I'm gonna miss this.

Luffy: Miss this? Where are you going?

Vivi: Well, when we get to Alabasta, we'll be going our separate ways. You'll drop me off and continue on towards the One Piece.

Luffy: Yeah... We are going to find the One Piece... But not until after we help defeat those Baroque Works guys and save your kingdom.

Vivi: You'd really do that?

Sanji: Did you think we were just gonna leave you?

Nami: Like I said, I thought you'd be used to our antics by now.

Usopp: You're one of us too.

Chopper: And friends help each other.

Zoro: Dummy.

Vivi: I never should've doubted it... I appreciate you all... If you're going to help me, there's something you need to know. What I went undercover to find out, and what Igaram lost his life to discover.

----------

Isle of Renaisse – Marine Communications Outpost: Communications room

Mr. Zero: Is that how you speak to your superior?

Sanji: My apologies, Mr. Zero.

Mr. Zero: The Marines have become aware of our movements. Dispatch the Unluckies. Clean up the mess... The Straw Hat Pirates taking Princess Vivi...

Smoker: Vivi, the missing princess of Alabasta.

Tashigi: I recognize one of those voices. A Straw Hat. But the other...

Smoker: Mr. Zero. He's the leader of Baroque Works.

----------

Going Merry: Kitchen

Vivi: We uncovered their most closely guarded secret. Mr. Zero's tru identity.

----------

Isle of Renaisse – Marine Communications Outpost: Communications room

Tashigi: To even know this recording existed, Mr. Zero must be someone with information. Connections.

Smoker: And Garp doesn't want Mr. Zero's identity known until he has proof. Even the accusation could rock the foundations of the Marines.

----------

Going Merry: Kitchen

Vivi: If we are going to take this fight to Baroque Works, you'll need to know who you're truly up against.

Smoker: Baroque Works... Straw Hats... Everything's pointing to Alabasta...

----------

Isle of Renaisse – Marine Communications Outpost: Communications room

Smoker: So that's where we're going.

----------

Alabasta, Casino: Crocodile's office

Miss All Sunday: Mr. 11 and Miss Thursday confirmed the destruction of the intercepted transmission.

Crocodile: Good. Any update as to the identity of this Mr. Prince?

Miss All Sunday: Not yet... We'll find him.

Crocodile: And what of the good King Wapol?

Miss All Sunday: Out of the picture... Even with your generous gift, he failed.

Crocodile: We got what we needed from him. His royal treasury will go a long way towards futhering our cause.

Miss All Sunday: Don't you mean your cause?

Crocodile: Come now. What's good for me is good for you... For all of us.

Miss All Sunday: I've called the officer agents to gather in Alabasta. They should prove more effective than the others. I'm getting tired of clearning up lower agents' messes.

Crocodile: Ever so droll, Nico Robin.

Miss All Sunday: I've told you not to call me by that name.

Crocodile: Relax... Everything we've worked for will soon come to fruition. We commence with Operation Utopia. Alabasta will fall. And I will come one step closer to obtaining the One Piece.
