Seaman Apprentice

Tajiyo is an apprentice cook tasked with making curry for a special meeting of captains. He is seen in the filler episode 133 titled "Inherited Recipe! Sanji the Curry Expert". He falls from his ship when startled by the presence of the Straw Hat Pirates ship passing close by in a fog bank. Sanji accompanies him back on his ship with Luffy's help. Sanji tutors him in preparing the food while doing his best to appear indifferent at the time. After Luffy inevitably gets spotted, Sanji and Luffy beat a hasty retreat to the Going Merry. Tajiyo assists them in their escape by saying that he did not see anyone when asked by pursuing marines. His meal was a success and his ship's honor was maintained.
