I don't own One Piece.


To think that these brats could have held you back said Kuro.

How the Black Cat Pirates have fallen said Kuro.

What have you got to say for yourself Jango said Kuro.

But um well I… I'm sorry sir you said that kid wouldn't be a problem said Jango.

I did say that said Kuro.

What you're point? He's an idiot said Kuro.

I knew no one would listen to his warning and he would come stumbling back to take a stand against you said Kuro.

But the one thing I hadn't taken account for was your inexcusable weakness said Kuro.

Sir, we're not weak it's just that er said Jango.

Who are you calling weak? Said, Sham.

Watch what you say Captain Kuro said Buchi.

You used to be quite the killer but face it Kuro it's been three years and we haven't exactly been living the good life waiting on a rich girl hand and foot said, Sham.

Yeah, that's right, for three long years we been out sinking pirate ships and massacring villages said Buchi.

Very good, are you finished? Said Kuro.

No! You've done nothing this whole time we've been killing said, Sham.

You butler there's no way you beat the Meowban Brothers said Buchi.

They charge their "Captain".

Don't, Buchi, Sham stop said Jango.

You are not our Captain anymore said Sham.

So sorry but we have to kill you said Buchi.

What the? How is he behind them and what are those crazy weapons? Said Zoro.

Who are you going to kill? Asks Kuro.

He snuck up said, Sham.

Right behind us said Buchi.

He's gone said, Sham.

The pussy foot maneuver said Jango.

Pussy foot? Said Nami.

You know you're right said Kuro.

I do feel a bit sluggish after all these years said Kuro.

Nami gets up.

You're very lucky i'm feeling somewhat merciful said Kuro.

Maybe these years on dryland had made me soft said Kuro.

I'll give you five minutes said Kuro.

If you deal with the situation in five minutes then i'll kill every last one of you said Kuro.

Now have I made myself clear? Asks Kuro.

Oh yes of course perfectly clear said Jango.

Thank you for being so forgiving said Jango.

All we have to do is take care of this one guy said Jango.

Five minutes will be more than enough time for him said Jango.

We nearly had a few minutes ago said Buchi.

We won't need one minute to finish him this time said, Sham.

We're counting on you said Jango.

Kill him, kill him dead said Jango.

Nami walks past him and kicks Zoro's swords.

Zoro said Nami.

What the? Said Jango.

Hey easy there you can't just kick them, those are my swords said Zoro.

How about a thanks said Nami.

Yeah, I appreciate it said Zoro.

Zoro beats the Meowban brothers with one strike.

The clock is ticking said Kuro.

Oh, no said Jango.

This is bad said Jango.

3 minutes left said Kuro.

Then Buchi is voluntarily hypnotized by Jango.

Buchi kill him said Jango.

What? Really you're back for more? Said Zoro.

Nows my chance, everyone else is busy fighting for their lives and she's just sleeping said Nami.

Jango throws this metal ring after Nami as she runs toward Lucy.

Get up Lucy said to Nami.

Nami lookout said Zoro.

Nami's heel lands in Lucy's eye.

Huh? Said Nami.

Two minutes in counting said Kuro.

It was nice knowing you said Jango.

Dodge, it quick said Zoro.

Nami you cannot just go round stepping on people's eyes said, Lucy.

Lucy gets hit in the mouth by the metal ring.

No how is that girl still alive? Said Jango.

It's either the best timing or the worst timing in the world said Zoro.

I can't tell said Zoro.

Uh, Lucy? Said Nami.

Lucy breaks the ring with her teeth.

Lucy said Nami.

BC Pirate: Crap that girl's back in the battle.

BC Pirate #2: This is terrible.

BC Pirate #3: Five minutes will never be enough time.

That hurt you jerk why did you do that? Yells Lucy.

Hey, sleeping beauty that wasn't me yells Nami.

It wasn't me said Nami.

You ok Nami? Asks Lucy.

Did you get hurt? Let me see it said, Lucy.

Oh, it's nothing I'm fine said Nami.

I've done everything I can, the rest is up to you said Nami.

Look we have to win, we can't afford to lose this fight said Nami.

You understand? Asks Nami.

Hmm said, Lucy.

Do it for the treasure said Nami.

Well alright sure said, Lucy.

Go and take back my treasure said Nami.

Yeah yeah, treasure I get it said, Lucy.

One minute and counting said Kuro.

BC Pirate: Kuro can't be serious. We can't possibly finish her in one minute.

BC Pirate #2: Come on guys stop messing around and end this already.

The pirates run from Lucy.

Buchi quickly there's no more time to waste said Jango.

Kill that three swords bastard and i'll take care of the freaky devil of a girl said Jango.

I'm coming for you Straw Hat said Jango.

Time's up said Kuro.

You knew the deal now you die said Kuro.

Hey, wait why is that shady butler here? Asks Lucy.

It's that girl said Kuro.

Didn't she die falling off a cliff? Said Kuro.

Nice trick said Kuro.

Don't ever sneak up on me said Kuro.

Unless you to die said Kuro.

Kaya said Usopp.

Usopp are you ok? Asks Kaya.

Kaya, what are you doing here? Asks Usopp.

Oh, Usopp I'm so sorry, I don't how you'll ever forgive me said, Kaya.

I couldn't believe it said, Kaya.

That Klahadore is a scheming murderous pirate said, Kaya.

Never mind that why are you here? Asks Usopp.

Kaya you're life is in danger, I told you to run somewhere safe said Usopp.

I won't not while you're fighting I won't run said, Kaya.

This is no place for a Lady said Kuro

Ma'am, please leave said Kuro.

Stop! Stop this right now Klahadore said Kaya.

I know what you're up to, Merry already told me about everything said, Kaya.

What's the girl from the mansion doing down here? Said Jango.

BC Pirate: The whole reason that we're here is to murder that little rich girl.

BC Pirate: If she's here then we don't have to go to the village.

BC Pirate: All we gotta do is kill her right?.

Klahadore please if you want my fortune you can have it, take it all and leave this village right now said, Kaya.

I'm begging you said Kaya.

I will glady accept your fortune Miss Kaya but I want more said Kuro.

You see simply acquiring wealth isn't enough said Kuro.

More than anything else what I want is peace said Kuro.

You want peace? Said Kaya.

Yes just peace of mind, it's simple really said Kuro.

I have spent the last three years earning the trust of the entire village and to be honest, I find this sense of peace and tranquility quite comforting said Kuro.

When my plan comes to fruition I will live with this sublime peace of mind said Kuro.

Yes, the glorious comfort of a peaceful life will be mine forever and ever said Kuro.

In short, these prates are coming and you will leave your fortune to me and die said Kuro.

Miss Kaya these things will happen said Kuro.

No it can't said Kaya.

Kaya pulls a gun out and points it at Kuro.

Leave here right now and never come back said, Kaya.

So you point a gun at me said Kuro.

Stop it, just leave, go said, Kaya.

Yes, I see said Kuro.

You're all grown up now said Kuro.

So much has happened in the last three years said Kuro.

Miss Kaya, don't you remember the things when went through? Asks Kuro.

We spent so much time together said Kuro.

Even before your too-sweet parents passed away you were more than my Master you were my best friend said Kuro.

So much time said Kuro.

So many memories, together we've suffered, together we've rejoiced, like family, said Kuro.

Klahadore said, Kaya.

I took you on shopping trips to the city, I looked after you so diligently when you were ill and was used to talking for hours and hours said Kuro.

Kaya listen to me, I was devoted to you said Kuro.

For so long, for so very long said Kuro.

I quietly suffered so that today I end your life and take everything that I deserve said Kuro.

I who was once the feared and respected Captain Kuro had to bow and humble myself before some snot-nosed little girl said Kuro.

It went against every fiber of my being said Kuro.

Damn you said Usopp.

Can you understand the depths of these daily insults? Asks Kuro.

Can you understand the rage created by those transgressions against my pride? Asks Kuro.

Kuro said Usopp.

Thank you for reminding me said Kuro.

Usopp I owe you for hitting me, let's get even said Kuro.

Oh no Usopp said Kaya.

As I recall you hit me as hard as you could right? Said Kuro.

Then Lucy punches Kuro via her Gum-Gum Pistol.

If he hates getting hit that much then he's about to have a really bad day said, Lucy.

I'll just leave this to you said Nami.

I've got treasure to find said Nami.

Then the boy that makes up the crew of the Usopp Pirates shows up and beat Kuro in the face despite the warnings of Usopp and Kaya.

Now those kids have done it, Captain is going to be so mad said Jango.

Captain, I knew that you were fighting said, Onion.

That is so totally awesome said Carrot.

There are no secrets between us pirates said, Pepper.

Why tell us? Asks Pepper.

We're supposed to tell each other everything said, Onion.

Who cares about that said Usopp.

Look this is important, you guys gotta get outta here, run said Usopp.

No way said Carrot.

We have to stay and fight with you said, Pepper.

The Usopp Pirates will be stained if we run in fear said, Onion.

The boys look behind them and see Kuro has gotten back up.

You, idiots, don't scream, run said Usopp.

Kuro walks past the boys and towards Usopp.

Kuro then kicks Usopp down the slope.

That hurt said Kuro.

My my that's quite a strange technique you've developed there said Kuro.

Tell me something do you have powers from eating a Devil Fruit? Asks Kuro.

Yep, I'm a rubber girl said, Lucy.

It all makes perfect sense now said Jango.

I didn't just Cullinane her arms stretching out like that said Jango.

Jango said Kuro.

Uh, sir said Jango.

I can handle the girl said Kuro.

You take care of Miss Kaya like we planned said Kuro.

Have her write her butler into her will then kill her said Kuro.

As for the kids, they're an eyesore eliminate them said Kuro.

I'm on it said Jango.

Stop right there said Zoro.

You wanna get to them you'll have to make it through first said Zoro.

Buchi said Jango.

Catastrophe said Buchi.

Not again said Zoro.

Buchi pins Zoro against the rock wall with only his sword between him and Buchi's claws.

That guy, he's crazy said Usopp.

Jango walks up the slope.

Oh no Kaya said Usopp.

KAYA yells Usopp.

Usopp Pirates said Usopp.

Boys: Yes sir.

I need you ro listen carefully said Usopp.

Look we're not running said Carrot.

Nit, after they did this to you, said Pepper.

We will defend you said, Onion.

Protect Kaya said Usopp.

I do as i say, don't argue with me said Usopp.

I'm giving you the most important task there is right now said Usopp.

It's absolutely critical that you do it said Usopp.

Kaya must get away from here, you must keep her safe said Usopp.

This is the reason we wanted to be pirates to protect what's dear to us said Usopp.

So do as I say and run said Usopp.

Usopp said, Kaya.

Now go that's a direct order said Usopp.

Boys: Yes Captain.

He's sure got a way with words said Zoro.

He made running away sound brave said Zoro.

Jango said Kuro.

Yeah sorry, I was gawking said Jango.

Those fools, do they really think that they can escape me? Said Jango.

Usopp hits him in the back with a slingshot ball.

Got ya said Usopp.

Damn you said Jango.

He's not a priority right now said Kuro.

Yes, sir said Jango.

Lucy starts to walk up the slope.

Their attempt at escape is feudal said Kuro.

We know all too well how to reel Kaya in said Kuro.

There is no way they can possibly escape Jango said Kuro.

Now if you want to help her go ahead said Kuro.

But first, you'll have to get up this hill alive Usopp said Kuro.

Buchi hurry up and finish him so you can take care of the rest said Kuro.

I guess losing to me once wasn't enough for you huh said Zoro.

I told you to get out of my way you tub of lard said Zoro.

Zoro makes quick work of Buchi.

What is that sound? Asks Usopp.

That is the sound of destruction said Kuro.

Jango's probably tearing the place apart said Kuro.

Go ahead see for yourself if you can get up said Kuro.

Heartless bastard said Usopp.

Don't you even have a shred of pity, you lived with this girl for 3 years said Usopp.

No, I told you Kaya is nothing more than a pawn in a game intend to win said Kuro.

When she's dead then i'll be grateful to her said Kuro.

Damn you said Usopp.

This guy is hopelessly evil said Zoro.

We should put him out of his misery said, Lucy.

Hey, Usopp go find the others said, Lucy.

No worries we'll take care of this guy said, Lucy.

Go on said Zoro.

Usopp struggles to stand up but does.

Ah very impressive said Kuro.

You can still move said Kuro.

Shut up you won't get away with this said Usopp.

I won't let you said Usopp.

You betrayed the villager's trust not to mention you plan to take the life of a sweet young girl said Usopp.

This is the last time you ever get your way said Usopp.

Usopp said, Lucy.

That hurt said Usopp.

It hurt so bad I can't move said Usopp.

Kuro laughs.

You really are a riot said Kuro.

So I betrayed people please grow up said Kuro.

That was all part of the plan said Kuro.

A village liar who plays pirates with the local kids has no place talking like a real pirate said Kuro.

Just say on the ground said Kuro.

Even if you did somehow catch up to Jango, he'd end your life in the blink of an eye said Kuro.

Staying there is what's best for you said Kuro.

I don't care said Usopp.

I don't care that I'm weak i'll protect them, I'm Captain of the Usopp Pirates said Usopp.

I'm a brave warrior of the sea who fights for what he holds dear, I will protect everyone in the village if it kills me said Usopp.

On my word you will never set foot in that village yells Usopp.

The Black Cat Pirates laugh at his words and Lucy throughs a giant builder down on them.

What's so funny? Asks Lucy.

Lucy, me, and Usopp are gonna chase down that hypnofreak said Zoro.

Is that a problem? Asks Zoro.

No! Hurry said, Lucy.

Thank you said Usopp.

I'd be a whole lot faster if I was going by myself but I don't know those woods said Zoro.

So we're gonna catch up to them, I'm gonna need you're help said Zoro.

Hold it you two said Kuro.

Where do you think you're going? Asks Kuro.

Who gave you permission to go anywhere? Asks Kuro.

I did said, Lucy.

Usopp, Zoro get going said Lucy.

Have another said Lucy.

Gum-Gum Spear said Lucy.

Man he disappeared again said, Lucy.

The others got away that's the most important thing really said, Lucy.

Before I kill you I feel compelled to ask said Kuro.

What is an outsider like you butting into this village's business for? Asks Kuro.

Cause there's a man in this village I don't wanna let die said, Lucy.

Simple enough said Kuro.

Are you ok with being the reason that he dies? Asks Kuro.

Sure am said, Lucy.

But I'm not gonna die said, Lucy.

We'll see about that said Kuro.

Gum-Gum Whip said, Lucy.

And Pistol said, Lucy.

This is quite boring said Kuro.

You cocky jerk said, Lucy.

Ow, you nicked me said, Lucy.

Shut up, don't call me that said Kuro.

You still don't get it said Kuro.

You fools this whole plan was devised so that I maybe ride of that name once and for all said Kuro.

I'm tired of it said Kuro.

Contacting plans every day for a bunch of barbarians who care only about mayhem said Kuro.

Relentlessly attacked by government dogs and Bounty Hunters said Kuro.

I am tired said Kuro.

I am simply tired of that entire cursed life said Kuro.

Kuro tells how he fakes his death and becomes Klahadore the butler.

And when my plan succeeds today after three years of planning, revising, and waiting my goal be achieved in its entirety said Kuro.

Wealth, fame, and Sublime will finally be mine said Kuro.

Do you understand now Girl? Asks Kuro.

I will not allow this perfect plan years in the making to fail said Kuro.

My plan will not be disrupted by an unchirn like you said Kuro.

Lucy stretched backward, grabs the boulder from before, stretches forward again, and puts the boulder in front of her.

Kuro's claws get stuck in the rock.

It would seem you can do a lot more than just stretch said Kuro.

That's right said Lucy.

I've been toughing myself up to be a pirate said, Lucy.

You know what? If you don't want a reputation then don't be a pirate said, Lucy.

You're just greedy Kuro said Lucy.

But I have ambition said, Lucy.

BC Pirate: Wait she just.

BC Pirate #2: She just broke Captain Kuro's cat claw.

That leaves only five more of those weird swords said, Lucy.

Lucy drops the boulder.

BC Pirate: Don't guys, he can still fight plenty.

BC Pirate #2: Yeah he still has that other claw.

BC Pirate #3: you can do it. Rip that girl to shreds Captain Kuro.

BC Pirate #4: Don't use thar name anymore. He doesn't like it remember?.

BC Pirate #5: I think this village his name is Klaha… something.

BC Pirate #6: Klaha… Something?.

The pirates on the there "Captain".

Shut your mouths said Klahadore.

All of you said Klahadore.

Soon enough i'll deal with you in the only appropriate manner: externamantion said Klahadore.

I'll also kill that fool Jango said Klahadore.

BC Pirate: But why kill us, Captain?.

BC Pirate #2: Come on please don't joke around like that Captain Kuro.

BC Pirate #3: It's still not too late for us to attack the village right?.

BC Pirate #4: Yeah and if Captain Jango gets her to write her will then you're plan can still work perfectly.

This plan is no longer any of your concern said Klahadore.

When all of you are dead this village will know who to blame for this atrocity said Klahadore.

I never intended to let any of you mongrels leave this village alive said Klahadore.

No one. No one who knows my true identity can be allowed to live to tell about it said Klahadore.

BC Pirate: No way.

BC Pirate #2: He already planned to kill every last one of us from the very beginning.

That's right said Klahadore.

3 years ago I planned to erase Captain Kuro and every last person who ever knew him said Klahadore.

It's all part of my plan said Klahadore.

You guys are dumb said, Lucy.

The most uncool pirates I know said, Lucy.

We're uncool huh? Said Klahadore.

Pirates are nothing more than savages incapable of rising above their animal nature said Klahadore.

Without my plans what could possibly accomplish? Asks Klahadore.

A crew is nothing to me, they're simply a means to an end said Klahadore.

Crew members are just pawns in a Captain's game said Klahadore.

Whether my men live or die is up to me and I alone said Klahadore.

If I tell them to fight, they will fight said Klahadore.

And if I order them to die then they better do it said Klahadore.

They know the punishment for disobedience said Klahadore.

Lucy just stares at him.

This is how pirates are, don't you dare talk down to me girl said Klahadore.

You know no matter how many hundreds of thousands of men follow you, there Captain, you will never be as good as Usopp said, Lucy.

You fool said Klahadore.

Are you saying I am inferior to a kid pretending to be a pirate? Asks Klahadore.

That's right said, Lucy.

Klahadore laughs.

Aren't you funny said Klahadore?

Don't get all cocky cause you snapped off one of my cat claws said Klahadore.

How exactly is he better than me? Asks Klahadore.

Let's hear it said Klahadore.

Cause he's got a heart said, Lucy.

Got what? Asks Kalahadore.

A guy like you doesn't know what a true pirate is said, Lucy.

Lucy stretches her arms, whips around, and hits Klahadore knocking him into the rock wall.

How insulting said Klahadore.

It would appear you need a lesson in what real pirates are like said Klahadore.

It's not pleasant said Klahadore.

Your first lesson will be about terror said Klahadore.

A lesson I learned well as I stared down death said Klahadore.

He starts moving weirdly.

The pirates beg him not to use that technique.

What's the big deal? Asks Lucy.

He's wobbling back and forth said, Lucy.

Out of the bag attack said Klahadore.

What a small haul said Nami.

You know I really thought they'd have more treasure than this said Nami.

Let's see if they're finished fighting said Nami.

Everyone has stopped said Nami.

Is it over? asks Nami.

What's he doing over there? Asks Lucy.

That guys everywhere said, Lucy.

One by one the Black Cat Pirates fall.

Lucy gets cut up as well but she also gets angry.

Don't you have any honor? Those men are your friends yells Lucy.

Lucy said Nami.

Lucy grabs Klahadore and throwings him down behind her.

I found you said, Lucy.

Klahadore gets up.

You bitch said Klahadore.

You should have accepted your fate like a good girl said Klahadore.

Now, look what you've done said Klahadore.

Thanks to you my little pawns are still alive and in misery said Klahadore.

It would have been better just to let them die in the attack said Klahadore.

So now what? Do you have something to say? Asks Klahadore.

Yeah said Lucy.

No matter what happens I will never be like you said, Lucy.

Some like you can't be like me said Klahadore.

You see you are going to die here today but first, you'll write in agony as I hack you up like a fish said Klahadore.

I'm going to carve you up and I'm going to enjoy it said Klahadore.

Oh no, you won't said Lucy.

Out of the bag attack said Klahadore.

Lucy is cut again.

Klahadore goes to strike Lucy again she leans back and he misses.

Are you tired? Asks Lucy.

Bet you are after all that dancing around you did said Lucy.

Don't get cocky girl, that was simply a warm-up said Klahadore.

The real fight begins now said Klahadore.

Now out of the bag attack said Klahadore.

Lucy manages to catch him by the leg and wraps herself around him so he can't move.

Nice try, ya jerk said Lucy.

Damn you get away from me said Klahadore.

This is an interesting turn of events huh? Asks Lucy.

You work for a girl for 3 years and now you're being beat by a girl said, Lucy.

Let go said Klahadore.

Hey, look that weird girl's got Captain Kuro said BC Pirate.

I don't believe it. If that goofy girl manages to beat him then that means Captain Kuro won't be able to slaughter us right? Said BC Pirate #2.

They now cheer for Lucy instead of Klahadore.

Get off me said Klahadore.

She headbutts him.

Shut up said Lucy.

Lucy stretches her head back toward the Black Cat Pirates.

You have no right to cheer me on yells Lucy.

Lucy headbutts Klahadore again this time defeating him.

BC Pirate: Who are you?.

I'm Monkey D. Lucy said Lucy.

The only time a pirate should abandon his name is when he dies said Lucy.

I would never lose to a coward who ditches his name, betrays his friends, and runs from life on the sea said Lucy.

BC Pirate: Lucy?. I never heard that name before.

You should remember my name for the rest of your lives because one of these days I'm gonna be Queen of the Pirates said Lucy.

Lucy then grabs Kuro by the collar.

Now get outta here said Lucy as she tosses Kuro back to them.

And never come back said Lucy.

The pirates flee.

Nami jogs over to the other girl.

Before Nami can say a word Lucy falls forward and Nami catches her.

Ya did good today said Nami.

Mini time skip

I'd expect even you to collapse after what you just went through said Nami.

Say Lucy why were you so mad at that guy? Asks Nami.

I truly hate people like him said Lucy.

It's so wrong said Lucy.

I hate break it you Lucy but not every pirate you meet is gonna be brave and honorable, most are like Kuro or are worse said Nami.

I want some meat said Lucy.

You're unbelieveable said Nami.

Small time skip

Thanks, guys I wouldn't have been able to protect the village without you said Usopp.

Give credit where credits due said Zoro.

If had just stood by and done nothing i wouldn't have done anything either said Zoro.

Yeah same here said Lucy.

Who cares about any of that, I've got my hands on this sweet sweet treasure now and I couldn't be happier said Nami.

Everything that happened here today helped said Usopp.

I've just come to a very difficult decision said Usopp.

Scene change

Now that we've eaten we should probably get going said Zoro.

Yeah you're right said Lucy.

There you are said Kaya.

Hello there Miss said, Lucy.

Are you alright being out of bed? Asks Nami.

Yes, I think now I can truly start to recover said, Kaya.

You see my sickness this past year was the shock of the losing both my parents said Kaya.

And Usopp's stories started helping me feel better said Kaya.

You've all done so much for me, i can;t thank you enough said Kaya.

I've procured a present from the bottom of my heart to show how grateful i am for everything you've done here said Kaya.

I'd be honored if you accept it said Kaya.


Scene change

A real Caravel said Nami.

Are you actually giving this to us? Asks Lucy.

Mmhmm as a token of my apparition said Kaya.

It's a slightly older model but i personally design it and she sails like a dream said Merry.

It has latten sails and a central style ruder said Merry.

She's a fine ship and her name is the Going Merry said Merry.

Such a cool ship said Lucy.

Especially the front, totally awesome said Lucy.

We've loaded it with all the provisions you might need on a long voyage said, Kaya.

Thanks. This leave nothing to be tired said Lucy.

That's nothing to be desired said Zoro.

Oh no Usopp said Kaya.

Hey what's he doing? Asks Lucy.

Looks fun said Lucy.

We;ll we better stop him, that weirdo is on a collison course with our ship said Zoro.

Lucy and Zoro stop him with there feet.

Hey thanks guys said Usopp.

Anytime said, Lucy.

Time skip

You guys take care said Usopp.

I hope we meet again some time said Usopp.

How come? Asks Lucy.

Well because i… said Usopp.

I'm taking off for life on the High Seas and I hope that we'll eventually meet again, that's all said Usopp.

What are you talking about? Get on already said Zoro.

Huh? Said Usopp.

We're friends, right? Get on said Lucy

I'm really a Pirate Captain now yells Usopp.

Don't be stupid Usopp, I'm the captain said Lucy.

They set sail.

Cheers to a new ship and a new crewmate said Lucy.
