"AH..." "WHA... WHAT? DIDN'T HE SEE US...?" Suddenly, Kuro vanishes and reappears right in front of Luffy, slashing at him with incredible speed. "SFX: DOSYAA" Luffy barely manages to dodge, falling backward onto the ground. "UGH!!" The Black Cat Pirates cheer for their captain. "CAPTAIN!!" Kuro stands calmly, looking at Luffy.

Luffy grins widely, grabbing his own cheek and stretching it far out to the side to demonstrate. "YUP! I ATE A 'GOMU GOMU FRUIT'!!" "AND I'VE BECOME A RUBBERMAN!!" Jango reacts with shock. "WHAT?! DEVIL'S FRUIT?!" "THIS IS BAD! YOU MEAN IT ACTUALLY EXISTS?!" "NO WONDER THAT GUY'S SO WEIRD" Jango continues to analyze the situation. "SO, RUBBERMAN, THEN THE STRETCHED ARM..." "WASN'T AN ILLUSION" He then looks at Kuro, amazed. "BUT HE CAN STILL STAND UP..." "AFTER GETTING HIT ON THE HEAD BY MY BLADE, THAT'S INCREDIBLE!!"
