## One Piece Chapter 34, pages 15-17: CLAHADOR THE BUTLER - Chapter: 34 - Pages: 15-17 - Characters: Kaya, Kuro, Monkey D. Luffy, Usopp ### Summary Page 15: Kaya's hands tremble as she holds the gun aimed at Kuro. Kuro speaks with cold resentment, asking whether she still remembers all that happened in the last three years: since her parents passed away, they have been together for quite some time, taking boat rides, going to town, and caring for her when she was down with a fever. He recalls sharing troubles and joy with her, then twists those memories bitterly by saying, "I'VE SERVED YOU TIRELESSLY!" His face darkens with annoyance as he adds, "I SUFFERED TAKING CARE OF THIS NOSY LITTLE OJOUSAMA... I SUFFERED WAITING FOR SO LONG..." Kaya looks shocked by his cruel words. Page 16: Kuro's facade completely breaks, his face contorting into a mask of pure rage and disgust. Veins bulge on his forehead as he screams, "ALL THIS IS SO THAT... I CAN KILL YOU TODAY!" He continues his rant, his eyes wide and manic, "I WAS A CAPTAIN IN THE PAST... AND I HAD TO SERVE SUCH A YOUNG, NAIVE LITTLE GIRL OBSEQUIOUSLY... BASTARD... DELIBERATELY TO MAKE HER LIKE ME... CAN YOU UNDERSTAND HOW DEMEANING MY DAYS HAVE BEEN...?!!" Luffy listens to Kuro's hateful words, his expression growing increasingly angry. Page 17: Unable to listen to Kuro's insults any longer, Usopp leaps forward with a furious yell, "AGRHH...!!!" aiming a punch right at Kuro. Kuro notices the attack coming and mockingly says, "USOPP-KUN..." while Kaya cries out in worry, "USOPP-SAN...!!?" Kuro effortlessly dodges Usopp's punch, swaying out of the way with a swift motion. He taunts Usopp, "STILL HAVEN'T THANKED YOU FOR THAT PUNCH YOU GAVE ME LAST TIME... NOW THAT I THINK OF IT, I... YOU HIT ME REALLY HARD...!!"
