Chapter 4:The Clown and The Liar
Sometime later in Orange Town...
Luffy and the gang arrived at the port normally this time. "So are we gonna kill him this time? " Zoro asked looking at Luffy."Sure. Go ahead. Do whatever you want we will be waiting for you here.
Zoro got off the boat and started walking to where the Buggy Pirates were.
"Who are you?"
"What are you doing?"
"I think that's The Pirate Hunter from Pirate Hunter Duo."
"Why is he taking out his sword?"
"I think he is so full of himself that he thinks he can kill us from there."
This would be a good first test of the sword Zoro tough. He brought One of the three sword over his head and Eaburēdo brought his sword down. In one swing he had obliterated the ship and its crew. This was easy for him as he was The Greatest Swordsman in the world .
On the other side of the Town. All the people heard a large boom. Kuina started worrying for Zoro. "So he is done. Prepare to sail."Luffy said turning to his 2 Crewmember.
As soon as he said this Zoro came from the town without any injury.
"This swords are good." Zoro said as he sat in the boat. " So now where Captain?"
"You already forgot Zoro. We got to get our Liar from Syrup Village." Luffy Said while smiling.
"Baka." Zoro said bashing Luffy in his head."He is our Marksman not Liar."
"Yeah. Whatever." Then he stood up and pointed towards where the map said Syrup Village was and shouted."LETS GET GOING."
After Sometime at Syrup Village...
As the boat came to the Coast, Luffy saw a familiar. The one of his Marksman. As they left the ship , Ussop came in front of them and yelled" This is the territory of Ussop Pirate leave now or my army of 10000 man will not spare."
"You and what army." And then he held 3 Kids and gave a cocky smile and said" This Army."
The Kids jumped away from Luffy and ran away as fast as they could. Then Luffy turned to Ussop and said "You are son of Yassop ,aren't you? He did say his wife had long nose. And your name are to alike to be considered a coincidence."
"You Know My Dad."
"Are you stupid or What? Didn't I just say that?"
"Let's go to this Dinner I know and talk."
In the dinner...
"So have you come to join my crew after hearing my heroics? " Ussop said Puffing his chest."Nah We needed you to be our crew's liar.""Marksman" Zoro interrupted while drinking his sake. "And also needed a Big Ship. Do you know where I can find it? Oh Ok I will go to the mansion and ask."Luffy said getting up and going to the door.
"Maybe Kaya has ...Can he see the future?" Ussop asked Zoro. "Yeah. Damn bastard can look some minute into the future. He has trained it for about 12-13 years now."
"What?!" All the crew looked shocked at this." But he would be just 5 at that time." Ussop said.
"Well I trained since I was 2. I could fight Marine Captain and Utterly Defeat them by using their own technique when I was 5." Luffy said from behind Ussop scaring him and rest of the crew."I thought we should go together so I came back."
"I thought you had gone to the mansion?"Ussop asked.
"Well let's go."Luffy said and disappeared.
The Mansion...
"Ma'am, You should have more Tea."Kahaldore said pouring tea in the of Kaya. All of a sudden he was pinned to the wall by his neck."Well I didn't expect to see such a big pirate as Kuro of Thousand Plan working as a Butler." Kaya wanted to say that was not true but when she saw Kal-Kuro not opposing it, She realized that the guy with StrawHat was telling the truth.
"So how long have you been working here. Three Years. That's just when you were presumed dead. No wonder no one had known about you still bring alive. Let me guess. This is a part of one of your master plan. Going to get closer to the rich lady and take all her money then kill her."
Kuro started sweating more his plan. It failed. All work done for 3 year was a waste. Because of an unknown Variable. If this Mugiwara was not here, It would have worked. He lost all hope.
Then Merry burst in to the room and shot Luffy. Luffy didn't see that as he was focused on Kuro. The bullet were made from Sea Stone. They were rich, so they could do that. As he winced his hand let go of Kuro who took this time to escape.
Merry got in front of Kaya protectively. But then all of a sudden Kaya bonked him."MERRY! Why did you do that? Now Kuro is free and going to kill us." At this Merry turned pale. Kuro of The Thousand Plan was going to kill him. But he also felt a Killer Intent focused towards him. He looked to see Luffy staring at him. And when he looked into his eye's he see's thousand of the ways he would die.
"Kuro's plan has already begun. His crew are here in this island." Saying this he appears in front of his Crew.
"So it is time." Zoro said picking up his sword.
"Yes. Crew get ready. Kuina and Zoro upfront. Albida you are with Ussop as you protect him from short ranged attacks. Ussop you will attack from far away. And when Kuro comes, I will take care of him."
After hearing a bunch of "hai" they made their way to the coast from where Jango and his men had come. Kuina and Zoro took the leads and defeated everyone easily. When the Nyan Brother came Zoro finished Bichitra and Kuina finished Sham in a blink of eye.
Then Kuro came out from the ship."I didn't think we would be held up by some kids" Kuro said appearing in front of Zoro but he was kicked by Luffy.
"You are fast but not fast enough." Multiple Voices of Luffy said as he saw multiple Luffy came in front of him and punched him.Gomu Gomu No Red Hawk Luffy said as all other Luffy disappeared. He brought his haki coated blazing fist and punch Kuro so hard that Kuro broke all the bone in his body.
"He knows how to make Clones of himself." Ussop asked surprised.
"That was not clone. He was just moving very fast. Or it maybe one who knows." Zoro said thinking as he didn't know many things about his captain.
As they said this Kaya came to them and started thanking them for saving her and her village. Luffy just said it was not a problem and if she wanted to help she could give them a Ship and join his crew. Even Zoro was surprised by this.
" You could be our herbalist. You don't have to fight and you get to have adventure's around the world." Luffy said with a smile.
" O…ok" Kaya said after a moment of hesitation.
Next day as they are about to board the Going Merry. A tumbling Ussop shouted" Stop me." Both Zoro and Luffy brought their foot up and stopped him with their foot on his head.
"Well let's go to the Baratie." As Luffy said this they board the ship and go back to their next location The Baratie.
