Kuro, the Pirate with 100 Plans". Features the cover story "The Adventures of Buggy's Pirate Fleet Vol. 3: Buggy's Adventure," showing Buggy running away from a giant duck on an island. Luffy and Kuro face off. Kuro prepares his cat claws, telling Luffy to "Die." Luffy raises his arms, shouting "No way!" Jango and the Usopp Pirates watch in anticipation as the fight begins. Kuro attacks with incredible speed, swinging his claws. Luffy barely dodges the swift slashes, grunting in surprise as Kuro's blades slice through the air around him. Luffy winds up for a "Gomu Gomu-" attack, but Kuro swiftly counters with a low "Leg Sweeper!!!" kick, forcing Luffy to adjust mid-air. Luffy fires a "Pistol!!!" punch, but Kuro easily dodges and steps directly onto Luffy's extended arm. The Usopp Pirates watch in absolute shock. Standing casually on Luffy's stretched arm, Kuro taunts him, saying, "This is so boring, I'm beginning to feel sleepy..." before preparing a close-range strike, calling Luffy a "bastard." Kuro kicks Luffy hard, sending him flying backward. Luffy crashes to the ground, losing his straw hat in the process. Luffy gets up from the rubble, spitting blood and muttering, "You made me bleed..." The Black Cat Pirates cheer for Kuro, shouting "Go Captain Kuro!!" and "Kill him!!"

Kuro explains this fake execution allowed him to disappear. Back in the present, Kuro declares that his three-year plan cannot fail and he won't let Luffy disrupt it. Luffy gets furious and prepares to strike back. Luffy stretches his neck back and delivers a massive headbutt, shattering Kuro's cat claws. Kuro screams in pain as his weapons break. The Usopp Pirates cheer as Kuro's claws shatter. Luffy stands triumphantly, declaring, "My dreams are far greater than your plans!!!...Then how can you be a pirate?!"
