## One Piece Chapter 36, pages 9-10: HUNTED!! - Chapter: 36 - Pages: 9-10 - Characters: Kuro, Roronoa Zoro, Monkey D. Luffy, Buchi, Usopp ### Summary Page 9: Kuro continues his cold speech. "AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, KAYA IS JUST A PAWN IN MY PLAN. AND IF SHE DIES, I MIGHT ACTUALLY THANK HER..." Zoro glares at him, "DON'T YOU HAVE ANY FEELINGS FOR HER?!! YOU TWO HAVE STAYED TOGETHER FOR THREE YEARS!" Kuro simply replies, "NO." Luffy, standing nearby, looks furious, steam blowing from his nose. "I NEVER THOUGHT OF SAVING HIM!!" Luffy says angrily. Zoro agrees, "THIS GUY'S BEYOND SAVING!" Suddenly, the large, fat pirate Buchi, who was previously hypnotized, leaps up with a "DAA!!" sound. Kuro notices, "OH, YOU CAN STILL MOVE. IMPRESSIVE." Usopp, still badly hurt, thinks urgently, "I CAN'T LET YOU DO WHATEVER YOU WANT! MUST GO AND SAVE THEM! OTHERWISE, THEY'LL ALL BE KILLED!!" as Buchi moves again and Zoro prepares to intercept him. Page 10: Buchi leaps high into the air, his claws extended, shouting "SHHYAAAA!!" as he descends towards Zoro. Zoro quickly draws his swords, "DON'T GET IN THE WAY. WE'RE..." He swings his blades upward with a powerful "GUIII..." sound. Zoro strikes Buchi squarely in the chest with a devastating blow, "DOSUUUN...!!" The impact sends Buchi crashing down. Zoro stands over the defeated pirate, his swords still drawn and ready. "YOU'VE MESSED AROUND ENOUGH...!! IN A HURRY. I WON'T KILL YOU, IF YOU JUST LIE DOWN QUIETLY!!" Zoro warns him.
