## One Piece Chapter 37, pages 0-3: KURO, THE PIRATE WITH 100 PLANS - Chapter: 37 - Pages: 0-3 - Characters: Buggy, giant bird, Monkey D. Luffy, Kuro, Jango, Black Cat Pirates ### Summary Page 0: The title page shows the chapter number 'CHAPTER 37' and the title 'KURO, THE PIRATE WITH 100 PLANS'. In the illustration, Buggy the Clown is running frantically across an island landscape, holding a knife and fork. He is being chased by a giant, angry-looking duck or bird. A thought bubble above Buggy shows him happily eating a roasted bird, exclaiming 'YEAH!', implying he tried to eat the giant bird's kin or steal its food. At the bottom, a caption reads '29 THE ADVENTURES OF BUGGY'S PIRATE FLEET VOL 3 "BUGGY'S ADVENTURE"'. Page 1: The battle begins on the sloping path. In the top panel, Kuro stands menacingly with his bladed 'Cat Claws' raised, emitting a dark aura with the sound effect 'OOOOOOO'. Monkey D. Luffy stands opposite him, stretching both of his arms far back behind him. Luffy yells, 'NO WAY!!' while Kuro coldly states, 'DIE'. In the bottom panel, Kuro suddenly bursts forward with incredible speed, leaving speed lines in his wake. The sound effect 'GAGA!!' accompanies his dash. In the foreground, Jango and the Black Cat Pirates watch in shock, with one pirate exclaiming, 'THEY STARTED!!'. Page 2: Kuro swings his deadly claws horizontally at Luffy. The sound effect 'SWING!!' marks the attack. However, Luffy leaps high into the air to dodge, his arms still stretched far back and anchored to the ground. Kuro's claws slice through the empty air where Luffy just stood, accompanied by a 'SWISH!!' sound. Kuro grunts, 'UGH...!!', realizing he missed. Mid-air, Luffy looks down at Kuro and says, 'AH?!'. In the final panel, Luffy's stretched arms violently snap forward like rubber bands, creating loud 'SNAP! SNAP!' sound effects as he propels himself toward Kuro. Page 3: Kuro looks up calmly as Luffy flies directly at him, propelled by the tension of his snapping arms. Luffy winds up a punch, yelling, 'GOMU GOMU-'. Before Luffy can land the blow, Kuro swiftly ducks low to the ground and executes a spinning kick. He calls out, 'LEG SWEEPER!!!' as his leg sweeps through the air with a 'SWISH!!'. Luffy is sent tumbling over Kuro's head, missing his attack. Luffy lands on his hands and immediately stretches one of his legs far back, preparing another strike, saying, 'AND...'. Kuro stands back up, looking over his shoulder at Luffy with a calm 'FUU...'.
