Gura Gura Luffy : chapter 3 Syrup Village.

Lightningblade49 : In this fic Makino will be the one to curve Luffy's eagerness in regards to fight : If Makino weren't there in the previous chapter, they would have gone with Zoro's plan, and for Nami I think that like Garp and his Fist of Love she is able to use Busoshoku Haki when ever she hit Luffy while not having her member turn black.

w1lliam : I am not sure for now wether whitebeard will have a devil fruit or not and if he has one wich one he will use the only thing I am sure of is that if he has one it will be a paramecia. But that won't be important till Marineford.

I don't own one piece if I did Ace wouldn't have died in Marineford.

Important thing in this world Kaya doesn't stay at home because off Illness but because she is depressed over her parents sudden death, she also already started her medecine studies.

"You guys want to go to the Grandline, well, you will have to find a proper ship first. So now we are heading to a group of islands called the Gekko Archipelago. Maybe you'll find a decent ship there." said the Navigator.

"All right, to Gekko archipelago we go!" ordered The captain.

Now

After sailing for a while, and even having a stop on Gaimon's Island, the four pirates finally came to the Gekko Archipelago, unaware of the fact that they were being watched.

"After such a long time at sea it's good to be able to walk on land again!" exclaimed Zoro as he jumped from the raft.

"You would have been able to walk on land before, if you didn't waste your time sleeping." replied Nami.

"Why you…" started Zoro angry at being told off by Nami.

"Calm down children, friends shouldn't fight each other." lightly scolded Makino.

"She's right, besides it seem we aren't alone." said Luffy looking towards the bushes.

As he said that three kids ran away leaving their long nosed leader alone.

"Who are you to trespass on my territory?! I am the toughest pirate on the island, with more than 8,000 pirates under my control!" yelled the long nosed teenager.

"Yeah right, more like three right?" replied Nami.

"Oh crap, I have been found out!" yelled the liar. "I may not have 8,000 men working under me But I am still Usopp the Proud."

"Shishishishi! You're funny." laughed Luffy.

"Since you are a Pirate, and so are we, maybe you could help us." said Makino.

"That's fine as long as you aren't here to destroy the town." said Usopp.

"Maybe we could do this somewhere we could drink and eat." said Zoro who wanted some booze.

"Yeah follow me, I'll lead you to the village restaurant." said Usopp.

After going to the Meshi restaurant and ordering foods and drinks.

"So why are you here if you aren't here to plunder the village?" asked Usopp.

"We need a ship, do you know where to find one?" asked Luffy.

"Don't talk with your mouth full!" scolded Makino as she bopped Luffy on the head.

"A ship…Maybe you should try asking at the mansion, the girl who lived there is alone since her parents died last year, leaving all their fortune and servants to her making her extremely wealthy, but she took it particularly hard so she had to stop her medicine studies in order to get better. But I better go to be on time." said Usopp before leaving the restaurant.

The three children who left Usopp at the shore, Piiman, Ninjin and Tamanegi, entered the restaurant and where worried upon not seeing their captain as they thought he was being held hostage. They grew even more worried when they saw Luffy eating some meat.

"What did you do with the captain?" yelled the three children.

"Why we ate him of course." said Zoro with a bloodthirsty grin to mess with them.

"Don't tell them lies!" scolded Makino as she hit him on the head reassuring the children.

"Why didn't you beat Shanks while he teased me Makino like you did Zoro?" asked Luffy.

"What Zoro did was unnecessarily cruel, so I hit him. What Shanks did was harmless and just too funny." replied Makino causing Luffy to pout.

"He said he had to be on time." said Nami.

"Ah, he must have gone to see her." said Piiman.

"Who?" asked the Strawhats.

"Kaya the girl that lives in the mansion, since she is so sad the captain goes over every day and tell her lies to make her laugh." said the children.

"While I frown upon the mere thought of lying, I think I will let this slide." said Makino causing Luffy to look at her wide eyed.

"Why would you let him lie and not me?" asked Luffy.

"Because he lies to make a girl smile, while you lied to get out of trouble, it's not the same thing." replied Makino.

"Not fair…" pouted Luffy.

Meanwhile at the mansion.

"No Kaya-Ojousama, I won't allow that liar to enter here. I promised your late father that I would watch over you and that means not letting you see that pathetic liar." said a Butler.

"But Klahadore-" started Kaya.

"No. Besides, I placed guards at the entrance so he shouldn't be able to disturb you!" firmly said Klahadore before leaving the room.

As soon as he left Kaya heard a noise from the window, when she turned she saw Usopp standing on a branch.

"As if anything could keep me away from visiting you." said a grinning Usopp as he entered Kaya's room.

"Usopp-kun!" said Kaya smiling.

"So, did you hear what happened to me I was sailing around and landed on what I thought to be an island, but instead was goldfish's excrement?" exclaimed the long nosed liar making Kaya laugh.

At the restaurant.

"So, why are you with him anyway?" asked a curious Zoro.

"I like the captain's nose." said Piiman

"I like the captain cowardice." said Ninjin.

"I like the captain lies." said Tamanegi.

"Those aren't good things to like about a person!" yelled the straw hats.

"That's it, we're going to go to that mansion and ask for a ship." said Luffy.

The straw hats and the children then left for the mansion, as they arrived at the gate they saw no guards.

"If there are no guards, then we can enter." said Luffy before climbing over the fences.

"...The giant gold fish I told you about, I had to feed it to tribe of dwarves as they were dying of hunger." finished Usopp just as the straw hats and the Usopp Pirates came in the room.

"Hmm, are they friends of yours Usopp-kun?" asked Kaya

"Ah they must have heard me tell you about how great I am and must be here to join me." lied Usopp.

"It is not nice to lie like that!" scolded Makino as she hit him on the head.

"I am here because we would like to ask for a ship, preferably a big one if possible." asked Luffy.

However before the answer could be given, a voice could be heard.

"What is that noise about?" asked Klahadore as he entered the room.

"Shit…the butler…" whispered Usopp.

"You won't get a ship, so you should just leave." ordered Klahadore which angered the pirates.

"And who are you to order me around?" asked Luffy with disdain.

"My name is Klahadore, and I am Kaya-Ojousama's butler." replied the butler.

"A butler. That means I don't have to listen to your orders as you are powerless in this house. If the lady says to leave, then I will leave. If not then I will stay as long as she allows whether you like it or not." replied Luffy.

Seeing as his plan to get Luffy and his pirates out wasn't working he quickly changed target to insult Usopp's dad.

"Ah, you are here too, I should have known that the liar would be here. You're as worthless as your father." insulted Klahadore wanting to rile Usopp.

"Don't…" started the long nosed teenager.

"That pirate father of yours would be ashamed if he knew what his son is doing right now, what do you want from Kaya-Ojousama anyway money or…" insinuated Klahadore

"Klahadore enough!" ordered Kaya angry at what her butler insinuated.

"I am sorry to involve you in this Kaya-Ojousama, but he needs to hear this." apologized Klahadore.

"You should have told a lie instead of saying your father was a pirate. Life would have been much easier for you and your mother." continued Klahadore.

"ENOUGH! Zoro!" roared Luffy as his first mate went to restrain Usopp before he could strike the butler.

"How dare you!" roared the angry teen.

"Calm yourself, he started the word fight, don't start the fist fight. He isn't worth your sweat anyway." said Makino.

"You know nothing about Usopp's dad, so don't go making assumptions. Besides, maybe you should talk to him, I'm sure he would be delighted to hear how you insulted him, his son and his wife while he wasn't here to defend them." said an angered Luffy.

"And how do you propose I do that?" asked a nervous Klahadore.

"Easy. Makino, you still have that number, no?" asked Luffy to a blushing Makino who simply nodded.

"Then Kaya-san would you mind fetching us a Den Den Mushi?" asked Luffy.

"No, not at all." replied a curious Kaya.

"Wait you...You know my dad?" said a very shocked Usopp.

"Yes, I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner, but I didn't know your father was a pirate until that scum said it. But yeah, I met your dad while he and his crew stopped at my home island. Makino knows him too." explained Luffy.

"I call your bluff, there is no way you could know such a weak pirate." yelled Klahadore as his plan to isolate Kaya fell apart.

"Here..." said Kaya handing Luffy the Den Den Mushi.

After dialing and waiting for someone to pick up a rough voice was heard.

"Who is this and how did you get this number?" asked the voice.

"Benn, is that you?" asked Luffy.

"Luffy? Great to hear from you but how did you get the number?" asked Benn.

"Makino, but I would like to talk to Yasopp about his pride and his son." replied Luffy.

"I don't want to know how exactly you conned that girl to give you the number, as for Yasopp I am sure he will wake for his son." replied Benn.

"Yo Luffy, what this about my son?" said Yasopp

"Oh well, your son was minding his own business with his girlfriend when her annoying butler came and started to insult you, him, and your wife, so I thought you would like to have a say in that." explained Luffy causing both Usopp and Kaya to blush at hearing the girlfriend comment.

"Is that so…normally I would have let my son handle this but that guy went too far. So hear me out bastard, If I hear you insulted my late wife behind my back again I'LL COME MYSELF TO TEAR YOU INTO PIECES, FEED THEM TO A SEAKING, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME KEEPING SOME OF THEM AND GIVING THEM TO A BUTCHER TO MAKE STEAK AND SERVING THOSE TO YOUR FAMILY! AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY THEN I'LL BURN ALL THAT IS DEAR TO YOU BEFORE YOUR EYES AND..." roared the enraged Man before he was interrupted.

"I am sorry to cut it short, but the captain is returning from his spar with that arrogant b*** and we must be ready to sail soon, but call anytime I am sure Shanks will love to hear from you." said Benn as he hung up.

"Wow what a man, eh?" said Luffy "It's not the same when a man isn't afraid to tear you apart, huh scum?" said Luffy at Klahadore.

"…" said a speechless Klahadore doing a fish impersonation.

"Now, I am afraid we must leave before I kill that worthless thing, Kaya-san." said Luffy before leaving with the rest of his crew.

"Kaya, I am sorry to leave but I have to speak to them about my dad." said Usopp as he too left with the children behind him.

"Klahadore that was way out off line..." started Kaya.

After leaving the mansion Luffy, followed by Usopp, went to look at the sea to calm himself while the rest of the pirates were waiting for them in town. As they were waiting Tamanegi went to look ahead.

"There is a strange man walking backwards coming here." said the child.

"Strange man? I am no strange man, I am Jango the hypnotist." said Jango, the man moon walking on the street.

"Hypnotist? I don't believe you, prove it." said Piiman.

"Ok, When I say Jango, you will fall asleep. One…two…Jango." said Jango causing him and the kids to fall asleep in the middle of the street.

Meanwhile Luffy and Usopp were talking about Usopp's dad.

"Really?!" said Usopp's excitedly.

"Yeah, he wouldn't shut up about you. And he was quite the sniper." said Luffy remembering.

Flashback

Ten years ago.

A young Luffy is watching Yasopp demonstrating his sharp-shooting skill by shooting an apple that was placed on a barrel from over one hundred meters.

"You know Luffy, I have son who is the same age as you back in my town. I'm sure he will be as skilled as his old man by the time he leaves to be a pirate…" started Yasopp before being tuned out by a bored Luffy.

"I am sorry to have left my family, but the call of the sea was too strong, isn't that right guys?" said Yasopp standing up.

"AYE!" cheered the redhead Pirates standing up and throwing a party.

Flashback end.

"I am proud to be a pirate's son, you know…so I expect that butler to apologize." said Usopp.

As they were standing up to rejoin the others in town, they saw Klahadore and an unknown man beneath them talking.

"The plan to assassinate the mansion owner is ready, you just have to give the signal captain Kuro." said the unknown man.

"Please Jango, refrain from saying things like assassination. She'll just have an unfortunate accident, and also, call me Klahadore. Kuro is dead and buried." replied Kuro.

"Ah, I remember Kuro. He was a powerful pirate, but I thought he was caught by the marines three years ago." whispered Usopp.

"Alright, do what you want as long as I and my crew get the reward in the end." replied Jango.

"Of course, but you'll have to hypnotize her so she signs the will saying that I stand to inherit everything she owns, then you are to kill her making it look like a accident. Is that clear?" ordered Kuro.

"Why not just take everything?" asked Jango.

"But that would make me a pirate again, something I don't want." said Klahadore.

As they heard the plan to kill Kaya Usopp grew worried so worried over his ''best friend'' that he didn't notice Luffy going down the cliff to confront the dirtbags.

"That's a nice plan, but sadly I won't let you do it. I knew you were bad news Krapuro!" said Luffy surprising the schemers.

"When I say Jango, you will fall asleep. One…two…Jango." said Jango putting Luffy to sleep, this act caused Usopp to run towards the town.

"Don't bother, he won't be able to warn the he's an untrustworthy liar after all." said Kuro as Jango was about to pursue Usopp.

At the mansion.

"Where is Klahadore? I told him not to leave the mansion." said Kaya to Merry her other butler.

"He went to the other town where I bought him this new glasses for his three years into service anniversary." replied the lamb haired Man.

"Is that so, well when he get back tell him he is dismissed from my service." ordered Kaya.

"What? But why?" wondered Merry.

"Because he dared to insult me in front of guests, He also insulted my guest's father, mother, and pride." said Kaya.

"What but that's not like Klahadore at all…" replied a shocked Merry.

Near the cliff after Kuro and Jango left to prepare the crew.

The straw hats found Luffy asleep at the bottom off the cliff.

"Oi, Wake up! It's Zoro's job to sleep during the day." said Nami trying to wake Luffy.

"That won't work, let me try." said Makino before whispering something in Luffy's hear causing him to shot to his feet wide awake.

"Where the fuck are those bastards?!" yelled Luffy looking around.

"Calm down! How the hell were you asleep in the first place?" asked Zoro

"I was caught off guard, This weird man said something like one two Jango while balancing a ring in front of him and the next thing I know is you guys waking me up." replied Luffy.

"That's Jango, we met him. He's a hypnotist, I wonder what he was doing here?" wondered Nami.

"He was talking to Klahadore, who is really a pirate called Kuro, about killing Kaya and taking all off her money." replied Luffy to the shocking his crew.

"Come on, there's no time, they'll attack tomorrow, we must go and warn Kaya!" ordered Luffy before they left for the town.

Meanwhile at the village.

Like Kuro said, the villagers didn't believe Usopp when he told them that Pirates were going to attack the town. After that failed he went to the mansion to warn Kaya.

"Kaya, you must run! Klahadore is a pirate and he wants to kill you for your money!" warned Usopp wanting to save her life.

"What? But that's impossible!" said the young woman.

"I heard him talking about it with a crazy man he called your butler Kuro, the name of a pirate who was caught three years ago exactly the same year Klahadore came into town." explained Usopp.

"Even if that was true, Klahadore has been dismissed, so there is nothing to be worried about." said Kaya.

"I'll bring you proof, but please, you must be careful." said a worried Usopp, before leaving to search for witnesses.

As he was leaving the village, he saw his crew, who woke up, and the straw hats.

"Captain, what's this about a pirate attack on the town tomorrow?" asked the children.

"Ah…it's nothing just a lie I made up to get back at that butler, don't worry and go home." ordered Usopp.

After they left he explained to the Straw hats what exactly happened.

"You see, as I have a reputation of an untrustworthy liar nobody believed me in town, and neither did Kaya. Even if she dismissed that scum I don't think that will matter to him anyway." said a desperate Usopp "But There is nothing to worry about, I'll face the pirate tomorrow and then everybody will be none the wiser."

"Are you crazy?! You can't do it alone!" yelled Nami.

"That's why we'll help him." replied Luffy causing Zoro to smirk.

"That's not what I had in mind!" yelled the thief, not happy at the mere thought of fighting.

"Now you see what lying brought you? They were so used to the idea off you saying lies that the possibility that you could tell the truth didn't cross their minds." said Makino, not liking the way Usopp lied every day to the town about pirates even if he did start that to help his dying mother.

"Now's not the time to talk about that, we need a plan. There are two possible ways into the town by sea, one is the north beach where you landed and the other is the south one." said Usopp.

"I guess I could watch over Kaya for you guys, as Kuro needs her alive to sign those papers of his. It won't be as dangerous as the battlefield." said Makino.

"Ok, but should Kaya come to the battlefield you are to hide and let us protect her." said Luffy.

"I didn't see any Pirate ship where we anchored, so that leaves the south beach." said Zoro.

"Ok, the plan is to trap the way into the town so that the pirates would be sitting duck for me and my shooting skills." said Usopp showing them his slingshot.

"Shouldn't you trap both beaches in case they come by the north?" asked Makino.

"The thing is it's a gamble because we only have the supplies to trap one of the beaches." replied Usopp.

"Then why not split up: You trap the south beach and let Zoro and Luffy wait there while you and Nami go to the other one, that way if they come by south they'll be trapped and if they come by the north then you'll just have to hang out long enough for Luffy and Zoro to get to you." said Makino.

"That could work…yes let's do that." said Usopp.

The next day.

At the south beach.

"There's nobody here." said Zoro having waited long enough for any pirate ship to appear.

"That means they came by the north, come on we have to hurry." said Luffy as they ran towards the other beach hoping to make it in time.

At the north beach.

"Shit they're coming this way!" yelled a scared Usopp, while on the lookout.

"What?! but we aren't strong enough!" yelled an equally scared Nami.

"We just have to hold on and wait for the others. I won't let them touch Kaya." said a now determined Usopp. "I'll try to buy some time."

As the pirates landed on the beach, they saw a lone man standing on the way to the town.

"You better leave this town as I have 8,000 pirates under me waiting for my signal to attack you." lied Usopp.

"What then we better flee, we are no match for a force of 8,000 thousand men." said Jango.

"Don't you know that he is lying Captain…" said a nameless black cat pirate.

"What he was lying?!" yelled an incredulous Jango.

"Ah crap, I've been found out!" yelled Usopp.

"Jango there is a raft with 5,000,000 berries in it nearby." stated a pirate.

"Ah, you can take it, it's mine. But if you take it you must promise to leave the village alone." said Usopp.

"We'll just take it anyway." said Jango.

"Shiiit!." said Usopp before he was hit over the head by Nami.

"How dare you give away my treasure!" yelled Nami.

The pirates, having grow tired of waiting, charged the two teenagers who defended themselves for as long as they could, Nami with her staff and Usopp with his slingshot, but they were ultimately over run with the sheer number of the Black Cat Pirates. As the pirates were getting up the way to the town, they were suddenly blown back as Zoro and Luffy finally arrived on the beach.

At the mansion, Kuro waited impatiently for his crew and having already injured Merry he decided that he would see for himself why they are late, and kill them if the reason isn't good enough. As he left he was spotted by Makino.

On the beach, having witnessed his crew getting beaten with ease by Zoro and Luffy, Jango decided to hypnotize his crew giving them greater stamina and strength. Despite this great boost they were still no match for Luffy who, having enough of this farce, used his devil fruit power in a quake punch that shattered the air before it and launched an "Airquake" that completely destroyed the Black Cat Pirates, to the astonishment of Jango the quake was so powerful that it somehow broke the figurehead of the Black Cat's ship, causing it to fall on a good portion of the crew.

"Oh my…the figurehead is missing!" exclaimed a voice.

"What happened to it?" asked another.

"Ah, Sham and Bucchi, I forgot about the Nyaban brothers, we're saved!" exclaimed Jango.

In town, Kuro is heading to the North beach, but he is seen by Tamanegi, who wonders what the hell is the butler doing away from the mansion this early.

At the mansion Kaya woke up to a house that was far too quiet as she investigated she found an unconscious Merry.

"Merry! My god, who did this to you?" asked a scared Kaya.

"Lady…Kaya…it was Klahadore…that boy Usopp was telling the truth…he really is a pirate after your fortune and mansion…nothing will change his mind…at least save your life by giving him what he wants... that should make him spare you and the town…" panted Merry.

"No, I won't give him that satisfaction, besides Usopp-kun is surely fighting him now." said Kaya before leaving to search for Kuro.

"If you are looking for your former butler, he went to town." said Makino as she saw Kaya leave the mansion.

"You…You were with the man who defended Usopp-kun's honor…alright I'll follow you" said Kaya. before she followed Makino to the town. As they crossed it they were seen by the Usopp Pirates.

At the beach, Jango ordered Sham and Bucchi to kill everyone standing in their way, but be extremely cautious with Luffy because of his power.

"But I don't want to fight…" whined Sham as he approached Zoro, before the swordsman could react two of his Katanas were in Sham's hands.

"Give them back!" yelled the swordsman however he was forced to defend himself as Bucchi attacked him.

Sham proceeded to throw Zoro's swords to the ground to attack him, but Zoro managed to cut him, however only Sham's shirt was cut as he is very skinny.

As Sham was holding Zoro on the ground, Bucchi attacked him, but once again Zoro managed to dodge by overpowering Sham and throwing him off.

As the fight between Zoro and the Nyaban brothers continued, Usopp tried to help Zoro by using his slingshot.

"Don't, this is Zoro's fight." said Luffy before going to pick up Zoro's swords. Jango was going to intercept him, but upon remembering what he did to the crew, he preferred staying where he was.

As Luffy picked up the swords, the conscious members of the Black Cat Pirates suddenly stilled, up the road overlooking the beach stood Kuro, looking very pissed.

"Why is it that dawn passed…and the plan isn't in motion?" asked the former butler. "It may be because all of you were so weak to lose to a bunch of children."

"Hey, take that back!" yelled Sham.

"Yeah, we grew stronger while you were wasting your time!" yelled Bucchi as they attacked their former captain. However, he was already behind them. Shocked, they turned to face him, but he was once again behind them, but this time he had a claw poised at their throats in a threatening manner.

"You have 5 minutes to kill them…or I will kill everyone here." stated Kuro.

While they were talking, Luffy had tossed Zoro his swords. As Sham and Bucchi turned to face him, they were suddenly cut by Zoro.

"Santoryu Oni Giri!"

Sham was taken out, however Bucchi was saved because of his fat, he then begged Jango to hypnotize him to make him stronger, he then went to fight Zoro again. However they were interrupted yet again.

"KUROOOOO!" yelled Kaya.

"You…why did you come here?" asked Kuro.

"Merry told me what happened, so I offer you my fortune. Now leave this place." said Kaya.

"Treasure isn't all I want. I also want a peaceful life, and as a vengeance for supporting you during the last three years I will kill you myself." said Kuro as he started to walk towards Kaya and Makino who was behind her.

"Over my dead body!" said Usopp. As he obstructed Kuro's path.

"That can be easily done." said Kuro as he used his Cat's Claws to severely wound Usopp.

The girls thought they were done for, but as Kuro was almost upon them he was punched from behind with tremendous force and sent flying into to cliff.

"Your fight is with me!" challenged Luffy.

The Usopp pirates then appeared, and hit Kuro with various objects, but their Captain ordered them to take Kaya and Makino and to go hide on the forest, and protect them since he couldn't move.

"Jango, take care of the girl. I have a pest to take care of." ordered Kuro.

Zoro tried to block the way, but Bucchi intervened, forcing him to dodge. Nami was busy robbing the Black Cat ship of treasures, Usopp couldn't move, and Luffy was starring down at Kuro. The Usopp Pirates, understanding the fact that they alone could protect their boss' "best friend", fled into the forest Kaya and Makino in tow.

Jango followed after the children while throwing bladed pendants at them, Usopp tried to follow but fell down due to his injuries, while being mocked by Kuro. Zoro, having enough, finally dealt with Bucchi.

"Santoryu Tora Gari!"

He then went to help Usopp protect those precious to him, as Kuro went to strike them he was painfully reminded of who his opponent was.

"Why do you fight for them? They are nothing to you!" asked Kuro nursing his sore cheek.

"There are, in that village, some people I intend to add into my crew." answered Luffy.

In the forest, the girls started to feel tired from all the running around, the children tried to cheer them on, but Jango caught up to them. The children tried with all their might to fight Jango, but he was too strong and they were knocked out. As Jango was about to hypnotize Kaya, Usopp and Zoro interrupted him.

"You…You managed to catch up, but I am afraid you are too late." stated Jango as held up a stack of paper.

"Is that so…" said Zoro smirking.

"Kayaku Boshi!" Usopp yelled as he fired on Jango with the pellets exploding in Jango's face knocking him out.

Meanwhile, at the beach.

Luffy and Kuro were facing each other. Luffy launched the first punch, but Kuro was too quick and agile for Luffy to hit. However, as Kuro grew overconfident Luffy was able to grab on to one off Kuro's claws and broke it using Quake Grab.

"You fight well…but now it's over…" said Kuro as he began swaying.

"Run for your lives! He's using the Shakushi, he'll kill us all!" yelled one of the pirates who regained consciousness.

Kuro disappeared, and claws mark appeared on almost everything including Kuro's allies. This caused Luffy to lose it, infusing his foot with his power he stomped on the ground causing a small earthquake that threw Kuro off balance and made him fall on the ground.

"Killing your own allies…have you no honor as a pirate?" said Luffy as he grabbed Kuro's head with a hand and started infusing it with his power, he then slammed Kuro's head on the floor quite violently burying Kuro's upper body in the ground.

Having won the battle, chased the pirate away, and healed the wounded, the pirates were ready to leave when Kaya offered them a ship.

"This is a ship of my own design, she is called the Going Merry." said Merry after having unveiled the ship.

"Thank you, this is perfect, do you mind teaching me how it works?" asked Nami.

Usopp then came rolling down the road to join the crew he prepared himself to have to argue against Kaya, but what happened left him as surprised as everyone else, except Luffy, who somehow expected it.

"No, you won't have to come back here to see me. I'm coming with you!" said Kaya.
