Episode 5 of Mouretsu Pirates, at 22:00, Marika has just informed Ririka that she's decided to become captain of the Bentenmaru. Ririka responds with something that Coalgirls translated as "Live long and prosper."

I think what she actually says is na naiki suru no da yo. I think that means "To do so is your tradition!". Is that right?

(Note that it really is Marika's tradition, as Gonzaemon's daughter. It isn't Ririka's tradition; she married into the line, and she herself isn't eligible to hold the Letter of Marque.)
