That night, Usopp is discussing with Luffy, Zoro, and Nami about his plan to stop the Black Cat Pirates from invading his Village.

"Listen, they're planning to attack the Village tomorrow morning from this very coast" said Usopp as he and the others walk on the slope.

"However, this is the only route that leads to the Village, the rest are cliffs, there's no other way to attack. In other words, if we hold them firm to this slope the Village won't be attacked" Usopp described his plan.

"That sounds simple" said Luffy.

"Talking's easy, but we'll need true strength for the battle. What're you guys capable of?" he asked.

"Slicing" Zoro

"Attraction" Luffy

"Stealing" Nami

"And I'll be hiding"

"YOU WILL BE FIGHTING!" they all yelled.

It would be the perfect plan........

If Usopp recalled there was ANOTHER slope!

They had to rush to fight!

Though there were complications.

Usopp and Nami got to the other slope but they were having a tough time as the Pirates headed up the slope as Usopp was on the ground in pain.

"…damn it…please, leave this Village alone…leave my Crewmates alone…leave Kaya alone, they didn't deserve this…" then by some miracle the Pirates that ran toward his Village are now, flying back to where they started it, Usopp gawked at the sight of it.

Even Jango and Nami gawked as well, a minute ago they were charging like ravish wild dogs ready to attack and then the next thing happen they are flying back to where they started, right back to the bottom of the slope. Jango flushed with irritating fury and gaze up and see who is responsible for this? Nami was looking down at the groaning Pirates before she looks up, and she relaxes when she sees who it was.

Monkey D. Luffy, and Roronoa Zoro arrived in time to save the day.

"It's about damn time" Nami mumbled.

"What's all the ruckus?" said Zoro, bandana already tied around his head and his sword on his shoulder.

"How should I know? I'm still pissed off." said Luffy.

"NAMI, HOW DARE YOU TRAMPLE ME DOWN THE SLOPE!"

"USOPP, YOU IDIOT! YOU DIDN'T TELL ME, WHICH WAY WAS NORTH!" both glared at Usopp and Nami while Captain Jango stares at them skeptically.

"Who in the world are they?"

-----------------

Meanwhile, outside of Kaya's mansion, Captain Kuro is sitting on the stairway patiently waiting for his Crew to show up but it's been over an hour and not a single one of them has made their appearance.

"They're late. Those fools, they should clearly understand what'd happened if my plan were to be disturbed" he said as he got up from sitting, and wrathful looking glare thinking about his incompetent men.

"Have they forgot what happen if they dare to fail my plan?…I will kill them all" once he decided he had enough of waiting, he grabbed his bag where he keeps his weapon and walk down to the North Slope.

Unknown to Captain Kuro, he was being watched by one of Usopp's fateful Crew, Onion currently hiding behind and tree and watch the scary butler walks away to whatever he's going, as he sees the look on his face something dreadful and bad is going to happen and to give him the cold shiver.

"What's going on? I never seen him like this; this is really bad..." Onion has no idea just how something bad is going to turn into something worse.

--‐-----------
Jango was stunned to say that this puny girl and one large man has managed to send his entire fleet of Pirates right back to the shore with no sweat, he never seen anyone this strong, that just…inhumane, Usopp's body shake in bewilderment that these two had just got here right on time and pushed all the Pirates back to the shore.

"You guys are that strong" said Usopp and Luffy nodded as a reply and try to catch her breath.

"You guys are way too slow" said Nami irritated and Zoro growl.

"It's all thanks to you that you left me down that oil slick!"

"That was an accident I had no choice. Rather than both of us fall its better if one of us make it through" she said in calm and cool manner and that made Zoro snapped like raging dragon.

"THEN WHY NOT YOU! IM THE ONE WITH THE SWORDS!"

"Just head North, Just head North, and guess what I headed? North and I ended running in circles, you never told me which way was North!" Luffy yelled at Usopp.

"Hey, don't blame me, you're the one who ran off full of confidence" Usopp shouts.

"That happened…out of whim" she calmly said, and Usopp gave her disbelieve look, while these guys were arguing with one another, Jango notice the clear blue sky knowing that they already late than ever.

"We been here too long, and Captain Kuro doesn't like waiting" he shredded as he thought how angry his Captain is going to get if they don't do according to his plan, but first they need to get rid of these rodents first.

"Men are you going to let these children make mockery on us" said Jango, and one by one his Crew is slowly getting back on their feet and ready for another round.

"Listen, we have wasted long enough and knowing our Captain; he is not very patient man" he said as he pulls out his hypnotic ring.

"They're strong, so we'll just have to be stronger, now stare into this ring" the Pirates listened to Jango's command as they gaze directly at the swinging ring.

"With 'one, two, Jango' you'll become strong, your injuries will heal, and you'll become very very very very strong" Jango's words have put spell on his own Crew completely at his mercy, as for the Straw Hat Pirates, they just look at him like he's stupid or something.

"He actually thinks that by hypnotizing them to make them strong, that's just plain stupid" said Nami and Usopp and Zoro silently agreeing with her except Luffy.

"You'll become stronger, much stronger, one, two, JANGO!" with that said, all of the Pirates that been on trance has started to roar like raging monsters, one of them has just punched a cliff, and it crumpled to the ground.

"Th-the cliff is completely destroyed what power!" said Zoro stunned at their sheer power.

"I don't believe it!" Nami couldn't register that Jango has actually given extra power boost using hypnotic powers.

"That just one of them, and there's so many of them" said Usopp sweating cold sweat.

"Maybe, but I have my own secret weapon." Luffy said with a smile.

She raised her hands as she summoned strong sweet smelling mists.

"Perfume Hurricane!" And a large Hurricane came hurdling to the Pirates that were now screaming in fear and some even get sucked into the Hurricane.

As it kept on spinning, it begins to charge forward to the shore, Jango screamed as the Hurricane came toward him; he quickly jumped out of the way before he gets sucked too, as the cyclone crashed landed on the shore with the mist being scattered , and the Pirates were on the ground, withering in pain and downright beaten.

Zoro's eyes widen in surprise and admiration because that is one hell of an attack she made; Nami's and Usopp's expression is priceless for she had creamed those Pirates like there were nothing but flies, and Jango he just gaped like a fish.

"Captain Kuro made a big miscalculation; they're not your ordinary brats" he muttered as he eyed the raven haired girl.

-----------

Back with Straw-Hat Pirates, Usopp is cheering and laughing at the beat down Black Cat Pirates.

"HAHA that was so cool, you beat them with only one strike, yes, yes, yes~"

"Now that what I call girl power" said Nami giving her thump up, Luffy still remain silent as she tries to catch her breath because it seems that the attack has taken a toll on her and Zoro seen to be the only one notices, and that worries him, once she took one last breath, she turned around at them and grinned in triumph.

"Yeah, but that took more stamina than I thought…" Luffy breathed as she dug her pockets for a hard caramel. Since her more powerful attacks require more energy, Luffy had to keep candies on her just in case.

Finding one, she quickly popped it into her mouth as she ate it.

"Don't worry I'm okay, it'll take a lot more than that to stop me" then she giggled. At the shore, Jango is grinding his teeth as he gazes at his fallen Crew.

"She really screwed us over, now the plan's all messed up, is Captain Kuro see this, he'll kill us all" he grind his teeth together as he eyed on the Straw-Hat girl.

" I need to figure out a way to stop her before things get out of hand" he muttered to himself, then Jango struck an idea and smirked, he turn around at the ship and then shouts.

"Come out Nyaban Brothers!" then two shadow blur appear before Jango with their incredible speed, kneeling before him.

"You called, Captain Jango" a man said who's very skinny. He also has a hunched back. He has green hair along with cat ears just like any member. His name is Sham.

"You called" said the other and his appearance is of an overweight man in an outfit based loosely on a black and white cat. And his name is Buchi.

"Buchi, Sham, we need to pass this slope, but someone's in the way, so here's the plan" said Jango as he explains his plan to them. The Straw-Hat Pirates are watching these three discussing on whatever this plan is, well whatever it is they can take on anything. After Jango done explaining, he then commanded Sham to go and attack Zoro, once Sham took a glance at Zoro he was scared stiff at demonic look on his face.

"E-eh! You want me to fight him, but he looks too strong" Sham panicked and eyes at his Captain as if he's crazy.

"I said GET GOIN'"

"Okay okay, I'll go" then sham start to run to Zoro in very pathetic kind of way as if he's inexperienced in battle.

"Hey, you! Be prepared, because I'm gonna to tear you apart with these very claws" even his threat sound like he's crying, Luffy blinked and frowned.

"Man, this guy is big coward"

"Hey, stay back before you get yourself killed" said Zoro, not wanting to hurt the guy. As the green-haired man is running closer to Zoro, and then his coward personality completely changed into devious.

"That is if you can kill me"

"What" Zoro is surprised yet again and brought his sword up to block Sham's claw. He gritted his teeth for letting this bastard trick him like that, Sham gaze up at Zoro with mock smirk on his face.

"You took me too lightly" then he stepped back and said

"You blocked it well; I was acting so well too; I maybe tiny, but you'd better not take Sham of the Nyaban Brothers lightly" then he licked his gloved claw, Zoro narrowed his eyes at him and then noticed something on his back. It's his swords, but that's mean, he quickly looks down at his haramaki to see two of his swords had been taken.

"Lose something; I used the Cat Snatch to snatch away your swords" said Sham smirking.

"Return those swords to me"

"Return it? Isn't one Sword is enough for you, besides these two are in the way" then Sham did the unthinkable, he throw Zoro's swords away like garbage, Zoro's anger doubled as he charged at Sham with full rage.

"How dare you throw my precious swords" with his mighty swing, he slashed at Sham's torso, then Zoro runs toward to get his swords back when something landed on his back, he look back to see Sham unharmed. He must've avoided and pretend to get hurt.

"What were you trying to cut, I'm a cat after all" then Sham grabbed his hands and made him fall on the ground with a thud and slid till he stopped and pinned his hands down.

"Zoro, hang on I'm coming" Luffy yelled as she charged to help Zoro, Sham smirked.

'She fell for it' then Sham look at his Brother and said.

"Come Buchi, your turn" then Buchi jump high up to the air and fall down in front of Lara; she skid to halt and then dodged Buchi's sharp claws.

Buchi keeps on swinging his claws around trying to lay a scratch on puny girl while Luffy keeps dodging.

"Venus Whip!" Luffy yelled as she tried to strike Buchi buy he was able to dodge despite his build.

"One sword style is not my forte, but it will have to do" said Zoro, the Nyaban Brothers smirked and attacked at the two pirates using their signature combo.

"Grand March of the Pussywillows" then Sham and Buchi team up and rapidly slash at Luffy and Zoro, they kept on slashing while Zoro kept on blocking and Luffy got an attack in.

"Venus Meteor Hammer!" As it hit the cat men.

"For a cute girl, she's strong." Sham said.

"I'll say. Maybe once this is over we can bring her along on our crew." Buchi leered at Luffy who frowned.

"I'd rather risk the Marines." Luffy snapped back.

"I'm going to get Zoro's swords, if Zoro get his swords back, then he can defeat them" Usopp thought.

"Then I should…" before he can say anything, Nami cut him off.

"No, besides you can't stand up straight" then she's off to get Zoro's blades ignoring Usopp's warnings. She quickly runs passed Zoro and the Nyaban Brothers to get the Swords, too bad Nami has forgotten all about Jango.

As she was about to get to Zoro's swords, when someone stomp his foot on the sword, before Nami can react, Jango used his hypnotic ring to cut in her shoulder and fell down with a thud.

"NAMI!" Usopp yelled.

"What a foolish girl" he smiled evilly as turn to back to watch the show, and then he noticed someone up on the slope and screeched as he recognizes that the man…it was.......

Klahadore.

Or to be more accurate, Kuro.

Buchi and Sham stopped what they were doing and quiver in fear at the sight of their Captain Kuro, Zoro and Luffy were not all that happy to see him again, and Usopp is no better.

"Th-there's a good reason for this" Jango is afraid for his life if he explains to his Captain what happened, Captain Kuro pushed his glasses up on a tip of his palm.

"The sun's been bright for a long while, why didn't you act according to plan" he asked in very pissed off tone, and all the Crew, who woken up, are shaking in fright.

"Ca-Captain Kuro"

"We're gonna be killed"

"This is bad" said Usopp that everything went from bad to worse, Kuro eyes at the situation in front of him to see these noisy brats from before came to ruin everything he worked for three fucking years and his sorry excuse for Crew can't even beat these children, he pushed his glasses one more and all hell break loose.

"WHAT IN NEPTUNE'S NAME IS GOING ON HERE?!"
