Wealth, fame, power...
Gold Roger, the King of the Pirates,
attained everything this world has to offer.
The words he uttered just before his death drove people to the seas.
My treasure? If you want it, you can have it!
Find it! I left everything this world has to offer there!
And so men head for the Grand Line in pursuit of their dreams!
The world has truly entered a Great Pirate Era!
We're going to gather up all our dreams
and set out in search of something to find
ONE PIECE!
Compasses only cause delays
Delirious with fever, I take the helm
If the dusty treasure map has been verified, it's not a legend!
When it comes to personal storms,
simply ride aboard someone else's biorhythm
and pretend it isn't there!
We're going to gather up all our dreams
and set out in search of something to find
A coin in my pocket, and do you wanna be my friend?
We are, We are on the cruise!
We are!
--Jango! -- Y-Yeah?
I'll handle the boy.
You take care of Miss Kaya.
As we planned, have her write a will...
...then kill her!
U-Usopp Pirates!
Protect Kaya!
Luffy!
Me and Usopp are gonna chase that hypno-freak! That a problem?!
Nope! Hurry!
What?!
T-That's Captain Kuro for ya!
Hurray for Captain Kuro!
Get 'im!
Captain Kuro!
You're awesome, Captain Kuro!
Don't call me that name!
This plan is so I can be completely rid of the name "Captain Kuro"!
I'm tired...
Devising plans everyday for you men who only care about mayhem...
Being relentlessly attacked by government dogs and bounty hunters...
W-What?!
You're "tired"?!
You're not fit to be a pirate if having a name on the seas scares you!
My ambition is much greater than yours!
"Protect Kaya! The Usopp Pirates' Great Efforts!"
Is that hypnotist still behind us?!
Nope, I don't see him! Let's lose him for good!
Like he can really catch us inside this forest!
Don't worry, Kaya-san! We will keep you safe!
Yeah! In the name of the Usopp Pirates!
Thank you...
Not there...
Where are you, you runts?!
Don't think you can escape me!
I can shave this whole forest bald, if you'd like!
Whoa!
He seems really mad!
He's not just a hypnotist?!
Where did you run off to?
This way!
Where are you, you runts?!
Hey! East! East! I said east!
Like I know where that is! Tell me left or right!
--Then turn right! --That's the opposite way!
Kaya-san!
I'm sorry... You run on ahead...
What are you saying?! Our mission is to protect you!
Oh, no! She's got a really bad fever!
Eh?! Hang in there, Kaya-san!
A doctor! Get a doctor!
You idiot! This is no time for that! Someone's trying to kill her!
But it's dangerous for her to run any more!
But...
Where are you, you runts?!
Thank you... I'm happy that you helped me...
Just the thought is enough for me...
Run away, all three of you.
Where did you run off to?
It's no use running! Come on out!
If we leave Kaya-san and run now, we'll probably survive, right?
Yeah, probably.
Plus our captain always said to run with your tail between your legs
if you think you're gonna lose...
Damn brats think they can mock me!
Our captain is a liar!
Even he went and fought!
He tried so hard to protect us!
I won't let Kaya-san die!
Alright, then! Prepare yourselves, Usopp Pirates!
Alright!
Let's fight him!
No! You're still just children!
You mustn't die for my sake!
We're not gonna die. We're gonna fight to live!
As our captain always said.
--Yeah! --Yeah!
You brats...
T-That guy...
He broke Captain Kuro's "Cat Claw"!
That leaves only five more of those weird swords!
It's okay! He can still fight plenty!
Yeah! He still has the other claw!
Scratch him up and kill 'im, Captain Kuro!
Hey! That name is taboo now!
I think his name in this village is Klaha... something.
Kla-san, then!
--Kla-san! Get 'im! --Kla-san! Get 'im!
Be quiet, you!
I'll come exterminate every one of you later...
Jango too, of course!
W-Why us?!
Please stop joking around, Captain Kuro!
It's still not too late for us to attack the village, right?!
And if Captain Jango gets her to write her will, the plan should work!
You need not worry about this plan;
your corpses will be enough for me to place the blame on you...
I never intended to let you leave this village from the start...
I can't have people who know I exist stay alive...
You can't be serious!
Then you planned to kill us from the very start?!
That's right...
Since three years ago, when I was still known as Captain Kuro...
It was all...
...all part of my plan!
Man, you guys're dumb.
You're such an uncool pirate group!
"Uncool"?
Pirate groups are nothing more than a collection of social outcasts!
Without plans, what can they possibly do?!
Every last one should just shut up and follow my plans!
Crew members are loyal pawns of the captain!
Whether my men live or die is all up to my orders as their leader!
No matter how powerful the obstacle,
they simply need to stand up to it and die for my plan...
This is how pirates are!
Don't you talk down to me, traveler boy!
No matter how many hundreds
or thousands of men follow you as their captain...
...you'll never be better than Usopp!
What?!
You're saying I'm inferior to a kid pretending to be a pirate captain?
That's right!
You're hilarious!
Don't get cocky just because you snapped one of my claws!
How exactly is he better than me?!
Let's hear it!
Character.
What?!
You don't know what a true pirate is!
H-He...
He kept up with the Pussy Foot Maneuver's speed!
How insulting...
If you want to know about real pirates that much,
then I'll show you that terror...
The terror of a pirate who's been face-to-face with death many times!
Hey! That stance! Is he--
He's gonna use that technique?!
But he's only fighting one guy!
But that's definitely it!
He's planning to use the Out of the Back Attack!
Isn't it bad for us to be here?! He'll get us, too!
He plans to kill us, too! He even said so earlier!
Please stop, Captain Kuro! Anything but that technique!
We'll do anything you want!
Please, Captain Kuro!
What's the big deal?
He's only wobbling back and forth...
Don't do it!
Captain Kuro!
Please stop, Captain Kuro!
Out of the Back Attack!
What a small haul...
I thought they'd have a little more treasure than that...
Let's see, is the fight over by now?
Huh? Everyone's stopped...
Is it over?
T-There it is!
Why over there?!
Not again!
Now it's the wall!
Please stop, Captain Kuro!
It's no use! He attacks at random using his Pussy Foot Maneuver!
Because of his speed, not even he knows what he's cutting!
So many crew members have fallen victim to--
Hey!
W-What's happening?!
People are suddenly being cut!
Show yourself, butler...
Who do you take your friends for?!
Luffy...
Found you!
Bastard! You should've let yourself be cut like a good boy!
Look! Thanks to you, my adorable men are left alive and in agony.
It would've been better for them to die in that attack!
Now what? You look like you have something to say...
Yeah...
I will never be...
...a man like you.
Not "will."
Someone like you can't be like me!
Especially since you're going to die here,
while you writhe in agony as I hack you up like raw fish...
I'm going to painstakingly carve you up as a special treat!
Oh, no, you don't!
Out of the Back Attack!
Come out, you brats!
I know you're hiding there! Give yourself up!
We surrender! We'll give you Kaya-san!
Come over here! We'll take you to her!
Like I'll really fall for that!
I can't trust what a bunch of brats say!
Huh?!
We got him! Now!
Take this! Pepper Attack!
I knew it! They were... they were lying from the very start!
--Push... --Push...
--Hyaaah! --Hyaaah!
Oww! Oww! Oww!
End of the line, hypnotist!
Don't get cocky!
Darn it! We failed!
You made a mockery of me.
But I am a pirate...
--Onion! --Onion!
You pretend pirates have interfered a bit too much...
Where are you hiding, Miss?!
I'll start by executing these three.
You can reflect on your foolishness to meddle in a real pirate fight
in the next life.
There you are.
No!
Run, Kaya-san!
Run!
Hey!
Yeah! That's them!
They're the other way?!
Please stop this!
Leave them alone!
I'll write my will!
N-No!
You'll be killed if you write it, Kaya-san!
I'm sorry...
Fool. Don't try to make a deal with me.
Captain Kuro told me to get rid of everyone.
You can't be serious!
If you don't do as I say, then you won't get to kill me!
I won't write my will, either!
H-Hold on! Don't act hasty!
I absolutely must get you to write that will!
K-Kaya-san!
Alright! I'll let the brats go!
Though they're really in no condition to run...
Here!
Don't forget to sign your name!
I know...
D-Darn it...
"I leave my entire fortune to Klahadore, my butler..."
Excellent! This is your will, all right!
That saved me the trouble of hypnotizing you!
You promise not to kill them, right?
Don't worry.
I may not look like it, but I'm known for being an honest man.
--Kaya-san! --Kaya-san!
There they are!
There they are! There they are! Stop!
Ouch, ouch! I've been cut there, you know!
Over there!
--Alright, I'll be back! --Hey!
That's far enough, hypno-freak!
He followed me here?!
Looks like I better finish this quickly!
When I was little, I had a vision of a treasure map
and I always searched for that miraculous place
before someone else could beat me to it
If the world is going to change
before I can even attain my dream
then take me to the time when I knew nothing
so that my memories won't fade
All finished here! The rest is up to you!
I won't lose to someone who ditches his name and runs from the sea!
Remember my name for the rest of your life!
What're you so mad about?
I hate him! He's wrong!
That's how pirates are.
That's not what friends are like!
On the next episode of One Piece!
"Anger Explosion! Kuro vs. Luffy, How it Ends!"
I'm gonna be King of the Pirates!!
