Missing Memories (One Piece) part 13: Kuro's past! Kaya's desperation and Luffy vs Kuro.

Recap: Zoro, you, and Luffy caught up with Ussop, Cristal and Nami. Ussop, Cristal and Nami got injured trying to help you guys. Luffy pulled the stem of the ship off and then smacked the pirates with it after he fell asleep. The Meowban brothers came and overpowered Zoro after they stole 2 of his swords. Kuro arrived and gave the pirates 5 minutes to take you guys out. Zoro then defeated Siam but Butchie survived and was hypnotized to get stronger. All rights to One Piece are to Eiichiro Oda, Shonen Jump, FUNImation, and Toei Animation.

"That damn hypnosis again?!" Zoro said as he flipped the sword back into his mouth. "I gotta be careful not to get hit by him again. If I get hit, he destroy me!" Zoro thought.

As Butchie stomped over to Zoro, Nami ran towards Luffy. "I gotta wake that idiot up!" she yelled.

"She trying to meddle again?" Jango said as he readied his ring and started spinning it around in a circle.

"I can't believe that idiot is still sleeping at a time like this!!"

"Die!!" Jango yelled as he threw his ring at Nami.

"Wake up!!" Nami yelled as she stepped on Luffy.

"NAMI DUCK!!" you yelled

"2 minutes left" Kuro said calmly.

The ring was almost at Nami but thankfully for her, Luffy grabbed Nami's foot and pulled her down as he got up yelling "Nami! Don't step on my face!" The ring then hit him in the mouth.

"H-He's still alive?!!" Jango said in shock.

"Bad time to wake up but it's good he saved Nami" you said.

Luckily Luffy managed to bite down on the ring although it scratched the side of his mouth.

"Luffy!" Nami said with joy to find that he wasn't dead.

"OWWW!! That really hurt!!" Luffy yelled in pain.

"What the hell is he?! With him up, there's no way we can beat them in 5 minutes!!" said one of the pirates.

"Nami that hurt!!" Luffy complained.

"It wasn't me!!" she yelled back as she fell back; weakened by the loss of blood.

"Nami, you're hurt?" Luffy asked in concern.

"It's okay. I can't do anymore so I'll leave the rest to you. We must not lose! Do it for my treasure!" Nami said

Luffy sweat dropped but said as he picked up his hat and walked towards the action "Whatever you say Nami"

"1 minute" Kuro said.

All the pirates freaked out "We're screwed!! There's no way Captain Jango and Butchie to kill these guys in 1 minute!!" They got out of the way of Luffy as he walked up to the battle.

"Butchie, we don't have any time! You take care of those 2 guys up there while I take care of this boy down here!"

"It's about time I took care of these guys" Kuro said.

"What? That stupid butler's here too?" Luffy said noticing Kuro.

He noticed Luffy "Didn't that guy die from falling off the cliff? Oh well!" Kuro said as he prepared to do his stealth walk. Someone then came out of the clearing in the trees and ran towards Kuro. "Don't ever sneak up on me!!" he said as he spun around and prepared to attack the person.

"KAYA!!" Ussop yelled as he jumped in between the slash. Kuro was very shocked to see Kaya there and the fact that he had almost ruined his big plan.

"Are you alright, Ussop?!" Kaya asked in concern.

"What are you doing here?" Ussop said.

"I'm sorry for what I did even though no matter what I say will not forgive what I've done. I just couldn't believe that Klahador was a pirate"

"I don't care about that! Why did you come here?! I told you to run away! He wants to kill you!!"

"But you're fighting here!! I said such horrible things to you. But here you are all wounded and still fighting!" Kaya said in tears.

"Miss Kaya, why did you come here?" Kuro asked.

"Please stop this Klahador!!" Kaya yelled in anger. "Merry told me everything"

"Isn't that the girl we were trying to get to?" Jango said.

"Wait. We don't have to go to the village anymore?" said one of the pirates.

"Klahador! If you want my fortune, then I'll give it to you. So just leave here!" Kaya said

"Thanks for the offer but…I desire something in addition to that." Kuro said as he straightened his glasses "I desire peace of mind"

"Peace of mind?"

"Yes. After befriending everyone for 3 years, I felt very confortable. I'd like to keep this peace of find in me forever. I will obtain this and your fortune which is why the pirate attack will commence! Then you will leave your will and die! Those 2 things are necessary.

"H-He's not Klahador!" Kaya said as she pulled out a gun.

"Run! Everything you say to him will be useless!" Ussop pleaded.

"Leave now!"

"I can't believe that you are actually pointing a gun at me. You really have grown up a lot in these 3 years" He then pulled off his gloves with a smile saying "Miss Kay, do you still remember all the things these past 3 years? It was a long time to when you'd lay in bed, crying for your parents. A long time… I still remember all the good days and bad days we had together."

"Klahador…" Kaya said starting to cry.

"We went shopping, nursed you health when you were sick and listening happily to what I said. I gave everything I have for you." He then grabbed Kaya's shacking gun saying "I endured everything for this day so that I can kill you!" He grabbed the gun away from Kaya as she cried saying "I, Captain Kuro, did everything this girl said. I did it no matter how much I hated it"

"You bastard!" Ussop said in anger.

"Can you imagine my humiliation? Can you imagine the great Captain Kuro doing such things?!" Kuro yelled.

Ussop grabbed the gun and pointed it at Kuro yelling "KURO!!" He fired but Kuro just used his Stealth Walk to dodge it.

"That reminds me…I still owe you a punch in the face" Kuro said with his gloves back on and one around Ussop's face and taking off the bandage on his left cheek "You punched me really hard that time"

Ussop then noticed Luffy's punch sail towards him. The punch smacked Kuro right in the face and down to the ground. "I got a hundred more since you don't like getting hit so much!" Luffy said as he stretched his arms back.

"What the hell?! His arms stretched!! Is he a monster?! He actually hit Captain Kuro!!" cried the pirates.

Luffy cracked his knuckles with a angry look on his face and Kuro laid on the ground also with an angry face.

"I'll leave the rest to you while I get my treasure!" Nami said as she headed towards your ships.

Just then you saw a blur run past Luffy. "I won't let you get away girlie!!" yelled Siam as he prepared to slash downward on Nami.

"Crap! I'm too far away!" Luffy said as he looked towards Nami.

"Die!!!" Siam yelled as he slashed down at Nami. Clang! Nami looked up to see that the claws were stopped by a sword. She looked to see that you had blocked the attack with your sword.

"Steven!" Nami said glad to see you.

"W-Where did you come from?!" Siam asked as he struggled to press pressure down on you.

"I don't like your underhanded tactics!" you said as you pulled out your other sword. You then held out your arms and faced the swords towards each other.

"That…!!" Cristal said realizing what you were gonna do.

"Take this!! DRAGON VORTEX!!!" you yelled as you ran forward and using your wind powers to pull Siam towards you. You then spun the swords around in a circle as you neared him. Siam got slashed by the spinning blades and when he was almost out of it, you slashed forward with your swords pointed forward. Siam fell to the ground with a lot of wounds on him and 2 really big slash wounds down his chest.

"Holy Crap! And I thought that that guy was a pushover! There's definitely no way we can survive now!!" Jango thought.

"Nice one!" Luffy said.

"T-Thanks a lot for saving me" Nami said as she got up.

"No problem" you said. Nami blushed a little.

"I-I gotta get my treasure!" she said as she raced off.

You then heard some sounds of footsteps running towards the top of the slope coming from the woods. "Ussop Pirates Attack!!" the 3 boys said as they jumped from out of the forest and smacked Kuro on the head with shovels and pans.

"Stop it guys!!" Ussop ordered them as they continued to beat on Kuro.

"Stop!!" Kaya cried.

"Oh Crap!! Are those kids stupid?!!" said one of the pirates.

"Those kids are really stupid!" Zoro said not liking what they were doing.

"They're gonna get themselves killed!" you said as you climbed back up to where Cristal was. The Ussop pirates finally let up on their attack.

"Okay! I think that's enough punishment for him!" They said.

"Those stupid brats!! No Captain Kuro is really pissed!!" Jango said in horror.

"I knew that the Captain was really fighting them!" Pepper said.

"Why didn't you tell us?!" Carrot said.

"Don't you trust us?!" Onion complained.

"It doesn't matter now!! Just run!!" Ussop said in terror.

"We'd disgrace the Ussop pirate name if we ran now!!" They yelled as Kuro got up. They froze as Kuro tried to straighten his glasses but the lenses broke. The 3 kids screamed in fright as a pissed off Kuro walked towards them.

"That's why I told you to run away!!" Ussop yelled.

Kuro walked passed them and kicked Ussop. "CAPTAIN!!"

"Not bad kid" Kuro said calmly "That punch was harder than normal so you must possess a Devil Fruit, right?"

"Yeah I ate the Gum-Gum fruit so I'm a rubber man" Luffy said confidently.

"Oh Crap!! This is bad! Such things do exist!!" The pirates cried.

"Oh I see. So the stretching arm wasn't just me seeing things" Jango said.

"Jango! I will take care of this kid while you of Miss Kaya! Make sure that she writes her will as we planned it and kill her along with these 3 insects!" Kuro said as he readied himself.

"Yes sir Captain Kuro!" Jango said as he started to walk towards the top of the slope but Zoro put a sword out to stop him.

"I won't let you pass" Zoro said.

"Get him Butchie!!"

Butchie then jumped in the air and yelled "CAT KILL, STOMP!!"

"Again?!" Zoro said as he jumped out of the way but this time the ground split open and debris flew everywhere. The attack cut off the sides of the slope and you and Cristal fell with it. You and Cristal got out of it unscathed and so did Zoro as he readied himself. Smoke surrounded him and Butchie struck his hand through the smoke at Zoro but he blocked the shot. Zoro was then slammed into the wall as Zoro used one of his feet to try to push him off while Butchie tried to put pressure on his sword.

"He's completely different than he was before" Ussop said as he lay on the ground. Jango then walked towards Kaya "Kaya!!" he yelled as she was in shock. "Damn it! I can't get up!" he thought then shouted "Ussop Pirate Crew!!!" This caught the attention of everyone. "Listen to me!!"

"We won't run Captain!! We will get our revenge!!" They cried.

"I order you to protect Kaya! This is the most important task I will ever give you! Get Kaya out of here! Do it because we formed this crew to protect all the people we hold dear!"

"Ussop…" Kaya said in shock.

"This is Captain's orders guys!"

"AYE!!!" They yelled as they led Kaya into the forest saying "This way Kaya!"

"That was a nice speech. It was the same as telling them to run" you thought as you smiled at Ussop.

"We know the forest like the back of our hand!" said Pepper.

"Jango!" Kuro said.

"Oh crap! I just blanked out there for a second!" Jango said as he snapped out of it and twirled two rings in his left and right hands "You won't get away from me!" He then grunted in pain as Ussop shot him in the back "You bastard!"

"Forget him and go after them!!"

"Yes sir!" he said as he raced off after them "It really is futile. I know how bad Miss Kaya's condition is. She won't escape Jango. You can go after them only if you get past me!" He then yelled "Quite messing around, Butchie!"

"I guess losing once just wasn't enough for you. I told you to get out of my way tubby?! Move!!" Zoro yelled as he kicked Butchie. Zoro then pulled out his two other swords, pulled them behind him then slashed forward, leaving a big X shape on his chest as he fell. Zoro then threw his 3 swords in the air and held out 2 sheaths on his left side and 1 on his right. The swords then fell and sheathed into their appropriate spot.

"2 down, 2 to go" you said with a smile. Then you heard a thumping sound.

"What was that?!" Ussop said as he struggled to get up.

"That was Jango. He's probably cutting down the whole forest trying to find Miss Kaya. If you want to stop him, try if you can" Kuro said.

"You soul less bastard! Don't you have any compassion at all?! You were her butler for 3 years!" Ussop said in anger.

"I told you, Miss Kaya was nothing more than a simple pawn in my plan. We she dies, I will be very grateful to her"

"Damn you!"

"He really is evil incarnate!" Zoro said.

"Well looks like we can't persuade him to leave" you said sarcastically.

"He really is hopeless" Cristal said.

"It wasn't like I was going to save him anyway" Luffy said then called to Ussop "Hey Ussop!! We'll take care of things from here while you go after Kaya!!"

Ussop got up with a lot of struggle while he cried in pain "I'm amazed that you can still stand" Kuro said calmly.

"Shut up!! I won't let you have things like you want it! You betrayed the villagers and fooled Kaya! I won't let you have your way again!!" Ussop said angrily. He tried to step forward but lost his balance and fell face down to the ground with his but sticking up in the air "Dammit! I can't move!"

Kuro then laughed "You really are a funny guy! I betrayed them?! Bull crap! That was all part of my plan! You have no right to talk like a pirate when you only pretend to be one! Just stay there. Even if you caught up to Jango, he'd kill you instantly. You'd live longer if you stayed there."

"I don't care what happens to me! I am Captain Ussop of the Ussop Pirates! I am a brave warrior of the sea who fights for the people dear to me! Mark my words you will never get anywhere near that village!!!" Ussop yelled.

Then all the pirates laughed at him saying "Look the idiot is crying now!"

Luffy had had enough as he grabbed a boulder and chucked it at the pirates with a pissed off face "WHAT'S SO FUNNY?!!" That shut them up real good.

"Luffy, I'm going to take Ussop and go after that hypnotist. Take care of things here" Zoro said as he grabbed Ussop and almost walked past Kuro.

"Sorry about this…" Ussop said

"Even though it would've been easier on my own, I need you to guide me to them"

"Who gave you permission to leave here?" Kuro said.

"I did!!" Luffy shouted as he threw a punch at Kuro but he dodged "Get going!"

This gave Zoro and Ussop the chance to run into the forest after the hypnotist. Luffy then pulled his body forward to give Kuro the clothes hanger but he dodged to left. As Luffy tried to gain his balance, Kuro slashed at him but he pulled his body back to dodge it. He then pulled his feet together in the form of a spear and shouted "GUM-GUM SPEAR!!" Of course Kuro dodged again. "Damn! He keeps disappearing! Well at least they got away." Luffy said as he prepared for the next attack.

"Let me ask you. Why are you fighting for a village that you have no affiliation to at all?!" Kuro asked.

"Because there's a guy here who I don't want to die!" Luffy answered plainly.

"Okay but do you want that the reason for your death?!"

"Yeah but I won't be dying"

"We'll see about that!" Kuro said as Luffy stretched his hands forward and grabbed onto his shirt. But he just twisted his hands and Luffy fell to the ground.

Luffy used this opportunity to sling his foot across the ground yelling "GUM-GUM WHIP!!" Kuro jumped over it easily but Luffy wasn't done yet "And GUM-GUM PISTOL!!" he shouted as he stretched his punch towards Kuro but he jumped as he hit the ground before he was hit and landed on Luffy's arm.

"You are boring me!" Kuro said cockily

"Not good!" Luffy said as Kuro ran on his foot and kicked him in the face. "Aw man! I think I got my mouth cut!" he complained.

"Even with the devil fruit, he's still getting beat. Guess that shows how strong Captain Kuro is. Go Captain Kuro!!" the pirates cheered.

"Shut up!! I told you never to call me that again!!" Kuro shouted "Don't you simpletons get it?! This plan was for me to get rid of that name forever!! I'm tired of always making plans for barbaric pirates! I want to live a peaceful life away from the Marine dogs! I'm tired of that life!!" Kuro then told you how he thought up a plan to get the Marines off him. He attacked a ship, hypnotized one of the soldiers to take a look alike to be executed in his place. He then gave the seat of Captain to Jango.

"And once I succeed in my plan, I will have achieved all I wanted. I will get money and a peaceful life. Do you get it now, kid? I will not allow this plan of 3 years to fail! I have never had any of my plans fail! And I certainly won't let it fail because of an idiot like you!!" Kuro yelled as he ran towards Luffy. But Luffy was ready for him as he put a boulder in between them before he struck which caused Kuro to get his claws stuck in it "It seems like seems like stretching isn't all you can do!"

"Yep! I toughened myself up to be a pirate!" Luffy said as he crunched the boulder down to where he could get his arms around it. Luffy then pulled hard to the right which caused Kuro's "claws" to break "If you don't want a reputation, don't be a pirate!!" Luffy yelled as he smacked Kuro with the boulder with a grin. "I have the ambition to be a pirate which is something you lack!!"

"Nice one!" you said grinning too.

At the forest

Kaya and the Ussop pirates were running away from Jango "Hey is that hypnotist behind us?!" Pepper called.

"Nope! We must have lost him!" Onion said with a smile.

"No one can catch us in our forest!" Carrot said proudly.

"We'll protect you Miss Kaya! We swear on our names the Ussop Pirates!" Pepper said.

"Thank you" Kaya said but just as she did, all the trees behind them came tumbling to the ground. Jango had thrown his ring around the forest to flush them out.

"We are you, you little brats!! There's no way you can get away from me!!" Jango yelled as he grabbed his rings "I guess I'll have to take out the whole forest to find you!"

"Man he really wants to kill us!" Pepper said as he hid with the others behind one of the felled trees.

"There's no way he's just a hypnotist!" Onion said in fear.

"Now where did they go? I'll try over here!" Jango said as neared the log then turned and went off to his right. The Ussop pirates sighed in relief but Carrot was about to sneeze but they held him down and forced him not to and thankfully he didn't.

Somewhere in the forest Zoro was carrying Ussop while running through it "East! East! I told you to go East! Can't you hear me?!" Ussop yelled in protest to Zoro's bad sense of direction.

"Enough! Tell me if I have to go left or right!" Zoro yelled

"Turn around and go to the left!"

"Turn around?!" Zoro complained as he followed Ussop's directions.

Back to the Ussop pirates and Kaya, Kaya tripped as they were trying to run away "I'm sorry. Please go on without me" she said.

"What are you saying?! We were ordered to protect you!" Carrot said.

"Oh no! She's got a fever!" Onion said worriedly after feeling her head.

"We gotta get a doctor!" Carrot said frantically.

"We don't have time for that! We're gonna get killed at this rate!" Pepper protested.

"But we can't run"

"But…"

"Where are you brats?!" Jango yelled as he threw another ring and cut some more trees down.

"I'm thankful that you are protecting me but you should run away now" Kaya said

"There's no use hiding! Come out now!!"

"We'll probably make it if we leave Kaya behind" Pepper said.

"The Captain always said to turn tail and run if you are losing" Carrot said.

"But that was probably one of the Captain's lies" Onion said.

"He's still fighting his hardest to protect us!" Pepper said.

"There's no way we can let Kaya die!" Carrot said.

"No! You guys are still kids! There's no way I can let you die for me!" Kaya protested in worry.

"We're not gonna die! We're gonna win and live! That's what the Captain always said" Carrot said.

Jango then noticed some foot prints in the dirt "Gotcha!"

At the slope

"No way! He broke one of the Captain's claws!" yelled the pirates in fright.

"Only 5 left of those weird swords!" Luffy said as he dropped the boulder.

"It's okay! It looks like he can still fight! He's still got one more claw! Get him Captain Kuro!" they said as Kuro got up.

"Wait isn't using that name bad?" said one of the pirates.

"Yeah I heard he was called Kuraha something here" said another pirate.

"GO KURA, KILL HIM!!!" they cheered.

"They really are idiots" you thought as you headed to see if Nami needed any help with the treasure.

"You morons! SHUT THE HELL UP!!" Kuro yelled. Everyone immediately shut up "After I take care of this guy, I'll kill all of you, including Jango!!"

"But why?! Please don't joke about this, Captain Kuro. We can still attack the village now without any problems. Besides once Captain Jango takes care of the girl, your plan will be complete!" they said worriedly.

"No need to worry about that anymore. As long as your bodies are here, I can prove I had nothing to do with this. I was planning to kill you guys anyway. I don't want people to know I'm alive. I had it all planned 3 years ago!!"

"You guys really are morons" Luffy said bluntly

"Morons? Pirates are a bunch of savages that don't fit into society. They can't do anything without a plan. They always follow my plans. Pirates like these are just pawns of the captain to use however he sees fit. I decide whether they live or die! I must have my plan succeed no matter what and they are to fulfill that part by dying. That is the fate of all pirates! Don't tell me how it's done, boy!!" Kuro yelled angrily after Luffy stared plainly at him.

"Even if you had 10,000 men, you guys could never beat Ussop!" Luffy said confidently.

"What?! I can't compare to that fake Captain?"

"Yep"

Kuro just laughed with blood coming down the left side of his face "That's really funny! You think too highly of yourself after only taking out one of my claws. Where is he superior?!" He then disappeared and appeared behind Luffy.

"His composure. You don't know what a real pirate is!!!" Luffy yelled as he swung his arm behind him and smacked Kuro into the wall.

"What?! Can that guy actually keep up with the Stealth Walk?!" the pirates yelled in surprise.

"You insult me" Kuro said as he stood up and straightened his hair "I'll show you what a real pirate is and how terrifying one is after seeing hell countless times!" He then started swaying his arms and legs like he was drunk.

"Wait is that?! Is he really going to use that here?! He'll kill us all!! Please stop Captain Kuro!! Don't us it!!" they pleaded in terror.

"What are they so scared about? He's just swaying back and forth" Luffy wondered.

"OUT OF THE BAG ATTACK!!" Kuro yelled as he disappeared in a cloud of purple smoke which went down towards the pirates.

"Need any help?" you asked Nami after searching for her on the ship.

"Thanks!" she said happily as she gave you a bag of loot.

"This really everything?" you said noticing not a lot of treasure.

"Yeah. I would have thought that they had more than this" Nami complained.

"What's going on?" you said in shock.

"What's wrong? Is the battle over?"

"No"

"Then what's wrong? All I see are a bunch of guys standing around in fear for some reason"

The smoke made it to the pirates and then suddenly it disappeared. Then next second, a pirate was sliced up. "What?! How'd he get killed?!" Luffy said in shock. They then started dropping like flies and claw marks appeared all over the place.

"Stop Captain Kuro!!" yelled one of the pirates.

"It's no use! He does this attack using the Stealth walk wildly. He doesn't even know who he's hitting. He used this attack in the past which killed not only a lot of enemies but of his own men too!" said another pirate before he was cut down as well.

"Damn him for using such a move!" you thought as you clenched your fist in anger.

"W-What's going on?! They're getting slaughtered out there?!" Nami thought in horror at seeing this.

Luffy was also getting slashed at along with the pirates "Show yourself, butler!" Luffy thought. As Kuro continued to slash, Luffy couldn't take it anymore and yelled in rage "DON'T YOU HAVE ANY SHRED OF HONOR?!! THOSE GUYS WERE YOUR FRIENDS!!!"

"Whoa" you said in shock at how angry Luffy was. You had never seen him that angry before.

"Luffy…" Nami said just as shocked as you were.

Cristal was equally shocked at Luffy's anger "I've never seen Luffy that angry!" she thought.

Kuro then slashed at Luffy but he stretched out his arm and grabbed him and threw him to the ground "Found ya!" Luffy said with a grin.

"You bastard. It would have been better if you let me finish them off. Now they have to suffer through the pain half-dead. It would have been better if they died now" Kuro said. He then noticed something "It looks like you want to say something"

"Yeah. I will never become a pirate like you"

"It's not that you won't, it's that you can't!" Kuro said pointing his claws at Luffy. Luffy just stood there without even flinching or batting an eye "You will die now. You will feel the agony of being cut to bits and die! I give it my all for the sole purpose of killing you"

"I won't let you!" Luffy shouted as Kuro started to sway.

"OUT OF THE BAG ATTACK!!" Kuro shouted as he disappeared. Luffy looked in worry as he tried to figure out where he was.

At the forest

"Come out you worthless brats! I know you're hiding near here! Give it up and I might be merciful!" Jango yelled. He then saw a white flag being flown behind a log.

"We give up! You can have Miss Kaya! If you come here, we'll take you to her!" The Ussop Pirates said.

"You expect me to fall for that? There's no way I'd believe you brats" he said as walked forward. That was exactly what they wanted him to do as they pulled the rope that was stretched across the road and tripped him "Oh damn it" Jango said before he hit the ground.

"The moron fell for it! Now!" yelled Pepper as Onion rushed toward him with a blindfold around his mouth.

"Pepper attack!" he yelled as he shook a pepper container. This caused Jango to sneeze a lot but they weren't done with him yet. Pepper came out of the bushes and smacked him in the private with a frying pan. He cried in pain and the Ussop pirates ran off.

Jango tried to get up with his face looking blue and very angry "I knew it was a trap" he said between sneezing. The Ussop pirates then rolled a log down onto his legs. He screamed in pain and hopped on one foot.

"Take this you hypnotist!" they yelled as they jumped from their hiding place and prepared to smack him with their weapons.

Jango was ready for them now as he dodged two of them and grabbed Onion by the throat "Don't get cocky. This is what happens when you underestimate a pirate" he said as he threw him into a tree.

"Onion!!" the other two cried.

"You guys were way in over your head" Jango said as he threw them into the tree too "Where are you Miss Kaya?! I will kill these guys now! They can contemplate why not to mess with a real pirate in hell!" Kaya then appeared from her hiding place "So that's where you were hiding…"

"Run Kaya!!!" the three yelled.

Zoro and Ussop must have been close as they heard them "It's them!" Ussop said

"That way!" Zoro said turning towards where the sound came from.

"Stop this. I will write the will if you don't hurt them" Kaya said with a determined face.

"Don't do it! Once he gets the will, he'll kill you!" the Ussop pirates yelled.

"Don't negotiate with me. Captain Kuro said to kill everyone" Jango said.

Kaya managed to grab one of his rings and held it to her throat "If you don't let them live, I'll kill myself right now!"

"W-Wait! We can work something out! I'll be screwed if I don't get that will!" He then sighed as he grudgingly said "Fine, I won't kill them. But I seriously doubt that they can escape anyway" Jango grabbed the ring and handed her a quill. He set the will on a stump and she started writing the will "Don't forget to sign it" She finished it and handed it to him He read it ""I leave everything to my faithful butler, Klahador." Yes that will do just fine. Now I won't have to hypnotize you"

"You got what you want, now let them go!" Kaya demanded.

Jango then held her against a tree, holding her throat, twirling a ring around his right finger and saying "Don't worry, despite my appearance, I'm a man of my word"

"Kaya!!" the 3 cried as they couldn't move.

"There they are! I found them!" Ussop said as he hit Zoro wounds.

"Stop hitting my wounds!" he complained.

"There!!" Ussop pointed towards where Kaya was.

"I'll get him!" Zoro said as he tossed Ussop and ran towards Jango "This is the end for you hypnotist!!"

"Crap! He found us! It seems I have to do this quickly!" Jango said as he readied to kill Kaya.

At the slope

Luffy was waiting for his chance to grab Kuro while he was using his out of the bag attack. Kuro slashed him a couple of times and Luffy dodged once until he appeared behind him "You tired now? That attack has too many pointless movements"

"Don't get cocky kid" Kuro said as he straightened his glasses "I was toying with you till now. Now I'll let you taste what fear is….then I'll kill you slowly. OUT OF THE BAG ATTACK!!" he cried as he disappeared. He ran along the cliff and everywhere. Luffy managed to grab him by the foot with one of his arms and tripped him. Luffy and then wrapped his arms around Kuro's arms and wrapped his legs around his waist.

Luffy then just grinned and said "I'd like to see you run now!"

"Let go of me dammit!!"

"Your 3 year plan ends with this!"

"What?!"

"The Captain is caught! If that guy wins, we won't be killed. Go rubber guy! Kick Kuro's ass!" they cheered.

"A second ago they were cheering for him" Cristal said

Luffy then head butted Kuro in the head then stretched his head to the pirates and yelled "Don't cheer for me!!"

"Let me go!!" Kuro yelled as he struggled to get free.

"GUM-GUM BELL!!" Luffy screamed.

"MY PLAN WILL NOT FAIL!!!" Kuro screamed as Luffy head butted him hard in the head, knocking him out.

"Oooh. That definitely had to hurt" you said with a grin.

At the forest

"Die!!" Jango yelled as he prepared to kill Kaya.

"We won't let that happen!" the 3 boys said as they rammed a shovel into his butt.

"Damn brats!!" he yelled as he kicked them away "You're too late swordsman!" Jango yelled pointing the ring at Kaya.

"I don't think so!" Zoro said as he slashed a tree branch.

"Thanks! That stupid branch was in the way!" Ussop said as he aimed his slingshot at Jango.

"What?!" Jango said in surprise.
