## One Piece Chapter 31, pages 12-14: THE TRUTH - Chapter: 31 - Pages: 12-14 - Characters: Jango, Buchi, Sham, Nami, Usopp, Roronoa Zoro ### Summary Page 12: Jango yells up at the pirate ship, "NYABAN BROTHERS! COME DOWN..." On the ship's deck, two figures are seen in silhouette. One says, "HEY! THE CAPTAIN IS CALLING FOR US!" Another asks, "WHAT? THEY HAVEN'T GONE TO THE VILLAGE YET?" followed by, "WHY ARE THEY STILL HERE?" and "OKAY! LET'S GO!" The two figures leap over the ship's railing and drop toward the shore with a loud landing sound effect. As they fall, one notices the unconscious pirates below and says, "HEY! LOOK! EVERYONE HAS BEEN DEFEATED!" The other replies, "THAT'S WEIRD... LET'S GO DOWN AND CHECK!" Page 13: The two figures land gracefully on the ground with stylized Japanese landing sound effects. Jango greets them, "HELLO, NYABAN BROTHERS". The two are revealed in full detail. One is a large, round man wearing a cat hood with ears and a large bell around his neck; a caption identifies him as "KURO NEKO'S PIRATE CREW: SHIP GUARDIAN BUCHI". The other is a slender man with cat ears, glasses, a bow tie, and clawed gloves; his caption reads "KURO NEKO'S PIRATE CREW: SHIP GUARDIAN SHAM". Sham smiles and asks, "CAPTAIN, YOU CALLED FOR US?" while Buchi adds, "WHAT'S UP?". Page 14: Nami looks at the newcomers and asks, "WHAT ARE THEY?" Usopp, sweating, comments, "WOW... JUMPING FROM SO HIGH... THEY'RE LIKE CATS..." Zoro watches them silently with a "..." bubble. Down below, Jango points up the slope towards Zoro's group and orders, "BUCHI, SHAM... WE COULDN'T PASS THROUGH THIS SLOPE......BECAUSE THOSE GUYS ARE BLOCKING OUR WAY! NOW GO AND DESTROY THEM!" Sham and Buchi react with exaggerated shock and fear. Sham cowers, holding up his claws, and whines, "WHAT?! HOW CAN WE... BUCHI, WE CAN'T BEAT THEM..." Buchi, sweating profusely, agrees, "YEAH! THOSE GUYS LOOK REALLY STRONG!"
