## One Piece Chapter 26, pages 6-7: CAPTAIN KURO'S PLAN - Chapter: 26 - Pages: 6-7 - Characters: Jango, Kuro, Usopp, Monkey D. Luffy, Black Cat Pirates ### Summary Page 6: In the top right panel, Jango leans back and laughs uproariously, holding his hat. "HAHAHAHA! PEACEFUL WAY TO SETTLE THINGS? YOU MEAN MURDERING HER ENTIRE FAMILY IS A PEACEFUL WAY?" In the top left panel, a close-up shows Kuro looking irritated. He retorts, "HEY! WHAT ENTIRE FAMILY? KAYA'S PARENTS DIED NATURALLY! THAT WAS OUTSIDE MY PLANS!" In the middle right panel, Jango sits back down, waving it off. "WHATEVER, LET'S NOT ARGUE OVER THIS. ANYWAYS, YOU JUST NEED TO SEND THE SIGNAL!" In the middle left panel, Kuro stands looking out at the sea. He says, "OUR SHIP HAS BEEN ANCHORED CLOSE BY... FOR ALMOST A WEEK!" In the bottom right panel, a close-up of Jango's face shows him looking serious. He says, "THEY CAN'T HOLD BACK ANY LONGER...." Behind him, menacing silhouettes of the Black Cat Pirates are shown with glowing eyes and weapons, accompanied by the sound effect "SFX: BWAHAHAHAHA...". In the bottom left panel, down in the bushes, Usopp and Luffy are hiding. Usopp is sweating and trembling, with a speech bubble containing "........." above him. Page 7: In the top right panel, a tight close-up shows Usopp's wide, terrified eyes as he sweats profusely. Sound effects of a heavy heartbeat, "DOKUN DOKUN", surround him. He thinks, "HORRIBLE... I'VE HEARD A HORRIBLE PLAN..." In the top left panel, Usopp is in a full panic, yelling quietly, "HEY! WHAT'S GOING ON? THIS DOESN'T LOOK GOOD!" Beside him, Luffy is casually picking his nose, looking completely unbothered. Luffy asks, "ISN'T HE LISTENING?" Usopp retorts, "OF COURSE IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD! THEY'RE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS!" In context, Luffy is confused because Usopp is not listening to him and is lost in panic. In the middle right panel, Usopp peers through the bushes at the distant figures of Kuro and Jango on the cliff. He thinks, "SO, FOR THREE YEARS... THEY ALREADY LUSTED AFTER KAYA'S FAMILY WEALTH! AND THAT BUTLER... NO! CAPTAIN KURO IS STILL ALIVE..." In the middle left panel, a close-up of Usopp sweating and looking fearful shows him thinking, "AND I PUNCHED HIM BEFORE... HE'LL KILL ME FOR SURE!" In the bottom right panel, Usopp clutches his head in sheer panic, his eyes bulging. He thinks, "KAYA WILL BE KILLED TOO! THE VILLAGE WILL BE UNDER ATTACK.... NOT GOOD... NOT GOOD AT ALL!" More heartbeat sound effects, "DOKUN DOKUN DOKUN", emphasize his terror. In the bottom left panel, Usopp abruptly stands up from his hiding spot with a "ZAKU!!" sound effect. Luffy, still sitting, warns him, "DONT STAND UP! THEY'LL SEE YOU!" Usopp has a speech bubble with "........." as he stands frozen.
