The characters we've seen in Oda's One Piece are truly incredible. They're diverse, intriguing, and—in most cases—favorite fans. On top of that, they're generally very well-written characters whose stories are always fun to explore. And that's what we're going to do in this article. This article will focus on a character named Captain Kuro, a supporting character who initially appeared as an enemy of the Straw Hats during the Syrup Village Arc. In this article, you'll discover who Captain Kuro was and what happened to him in the world of One Piece.

Kuro of a Hundred Plans is the famous and feared pirate captain of the East Blue who is the main antagonist of the Syrup Village Arc. Despite being the leader of the Black Cat Pirates, he abandons them for three years and goes to Syrup Village, where he spends three years there working as Kaya's butler, although, in reality, it was all part of a plan for him to finally live in peace. Unfortunately for him, Luffy and his crew ultimately thwarted his plan.

The rest of this article will focus on Captain Kuro, his history, and his role in the world of Oda's One Piece series. We'll introduce you to his backstory and current story, how it developed, and explain where Captain Kuro is currently and what he's doing in the manga's current narrative. This article will contain some spoilers, so if you're not fully up to date, you've been warned.

Captain Kuro was a ruthless captain, though he was never anything more than a secondary villain.

Kuro was a well-known pirate captain in the East Blue with a bounty of 16,000,000 Berries. Because his schemes never failed, he was nicknamed "Kuro of a Hundred Plans." However, tired of the Marines chasing him and always making plans for his crew (who, according to him, only knew how to destroy), he decided to put an end to it, and he did so by legally dying.

Five years before the current story, Kuro spoke with his second-in-command, Jango, that it was time for him to stop being the Black Cat Pirate Captain, this after being chased by the Marines for the third time in the week since he became a very infamous pirate.

Jango told him that the Marines would not stop searching for him until he died. Kuro then promoted him to the new captain. One night, a group of Marines decided to attack them. When the attack began, Kuro asked his crew to take a boat and take him off the ship, which they did; he went to the Marine ship and killed all the Marines except Morgan.

Jango ordered the others to board the navy ship and then said goodbye to Nugire Yainu. Morgan refused to die at Kuro's hands, but Kuro told him that this time, he would be the one to capture Captain Kuro.

Jango hypnotized Nugire into believing it was Kuro himself and also hypnotized Morgan into believing he had caught the real Kuro, who would later be promoted. Once this was done, Kuro launched a plan with which he would have a quiet life; he went to Syrup Village and was welcomed into Kaya's mansion as a butler, where he dubbed himself "Klahadore" and spent three years there to gain everyone's trust.

Under the name Klahadore, he eventually went to Kaya's parents' estate, asked them to encourage him, and out of gratitude, hired him as a servant. Since then, he has been held in high esteem in Syrup Village. Furthermore, he was not noticed until three years after his faked death.

He enacts his plan by using his old gang to kill Kaya and the villagers; after Kaya receives a letter, he writes a will that would make him the sole heir. However, his plan backfires when Luffy, Zoro, and Nami arrive on the island and stop his gang on the northern coast of the island, defeating him and Jango.

During the battle, Kuro reveals that he's been planning to kill the family for three years. Luffy points out that they're a bad crew, so he claims his subordinates are just desperate outcasts who can't continue without a leader, so they follow orders without a word. He goes on to claim that the crew members are pawns of the captain, who decides whether or not to kill them.

He states that they face difficulties as he has decided, and that they can even die on command as that is the way of the pirate, so a child like him must simply keep quiet.

Luffy then replies that although he is a captain with many supporters, he will never be able to win against Usopp. After confirming that the opponent considers him inferior to the marksman, he bursts out laughing, arguing that he shouldn't go crazy just because he broke half of his weapon and is using his speed to reach behind him, but at that moment, Luffy tells him that he doesn't, he has a temper and knows nothing about real pirates, then punches him in the head, which knocks him against the rock wall.

Kuro stands up, claiming that he has offended him and that if he thinks he knows the real pirates, he will show him how cruel they are, especially those who have crossed the line between life and death multiple times.

He then beats up all of his subordinates. Luffy yells at him about how he could do it, and he injures him, but the opponent manages to grab his jacket and throw him to the ground. Kuro stands up and curses him, telling the enemy that if he had stayed still, he would have sliced ​​him, blaming him for the deaths of his subordinates and his inability to die. Luffy then tells him that he will never become a pirate like him, which Kuro accepts since he will die there.

At this point, he prepares to use his speed to use the same attack as before, but the enemy blocks it using its limbs. He curses him and demands that he leave, but Luffy claims that his plan has failed and then headbutts him. Kuro argues that his plan cannot fail for any reason since the enemy extends his neck back, then delivers another headbutt that knocks him out. Afterwards, the boy throws Kuro's body to his crew, whom he orders to leave the island and never return; the pirates thus escape with their captain.
