“The Lava Pirates…”Yuki muttered,she had heard of them.After all she didn’t spent six years doing absolutely nothing.They had assaulted and invaded a Marine Base,an well known one at that with around five thousand marines and ten thousand Avengers like it was nothing.And every Marine was highly trained.

“Lava?Isn’t that a higher form of fire?”Kuro said curiously.”Well something think that Lava is a higher form of fire but that isn’t the answer.

Lava is formed after a volcano erupts,making the magma touch the ground,forming lava.Lava is formed from rocks and hotness,yet there is no flames,it can be considered one but at the same time not.”Yuki said.

“Then...Can I eat that.” Kuro pointed at a huge mountain of food.The Cooking Island was known for food,which was spread everywhere.”Um...Yes I guess?” Yuki said.Kuro disappeared from sight,he appeared at the top of the mountain of food.

“Greed Hole!” Kuro shouted as he opened his mouth.The food was sucked inside his mouth,after a few seconds Kuro grinned.”It was such a nice meal…”Haken was punching the ground,”Damn you cheated!”

“That can be a good weapon.”Ketsu’s face was dark.He probably found and got a nice idea.It will probably be a terrifying weapon.Kuro was smiling,’It will be a good add for our crew,to have more weapons just like the legendary ship,Thousand Sunny,of the Straw Hat Pirates!”

“Let’s go.”Kuro said and waved his hand.Two minutes later they saw a grand restaurant,at least a hundred meters.It was gorgeous and couldn’t be described with words(at least my words).”I sense immense food and enemies…”Kuro said sighing.There were at least a thousand pirates inside.Even for him it would not be easy to defeat them without damaging the island.

“Well let’s go!” Kuro grinned he wasn’t down at the slightest.”Darkness...Envelope!” Kuro muttered but nothing happened,but if you looked carefully the shadows of the trees were now a bit darker.

Inside the grand restaurant.”There is nobody here.”Kuro said suspicious.Even with his Observation Haki he couldn’t see anything.”This is certainly suspicious,I only felt an extremely huge wave of energy before the figures disappeared.”He continued.People who could do that were certainly less than a thousand!

“Even The Shadows sensed nothing.And I also has seperated from my friends urgh.”Kuro sighed.Thanks to an earthquake they were seperated.But he couldn’t cry for that,he still had a mission to complete,find A COOK.

As he was walking down a path he saw an unconscious man.He had short white hair and black eyes.White Hair were very rare and only one in a million may have them.He looked slightly older than him,17?

Kuro hurried and touched his neck,he was still alive.”Lightning Shock!” Kuro said as he delievered lightnings into the body of the white man.The White haired man woke up and said,”Stop!Wait did you save me?...”He said half way.Kuro nodded.

The white haired man stood up and said,”Thanks for saving me,my name is Miruku,you can call me Miru for short.Yours if you may?”Kuro replied,”Kuroken,you can call me Kuro.”He grinned.”Join my crew as a cook!”He continued.

“Cook?”Miru frowned.”Yep,you are a cook aren’t you?”Kuro continued.”Why do you think that?” Miru said.”Because your hands are in not a good shape,your fingers look bad and slightly burned,which only cook can have.Your eyes have a wild fire of flames inside and you have the smell of kitchens.”

Miru laughed loudly after a few seconds of silence.”Unfortunately even if you guessed right,I can’t...My father won’t let me…”He said muttering at the end.”Why?”Kuro asked.”My father is a marine,to be exact a high rank one.He hates pirates but loves people who go after their dreams...But I am a coward…”

“You aren’t a coward,I can see that in your eyes.”Kuro said,making Miru open his eyes wide.”Besides you have a dream,everyone has one.”Kuro continued,but before Miru could reply,a huge explosion rang out and the wall next to them exploded.

“I am the Lava King,The pirate,Willias Deanaos(Did I mention his name before?).”A man with red hair which were short and crimson eyes roared.”A pirate with a 60.000.000 Beri!” He continued.Kuro sighed,”Shut up!”He said unleashing his power.But Willias didn’t retreat.”Lava Wave!”He waved his hand and wave of lava shot towards them.

“Lightning Wall!”Kuro roared and a wall of lightnings appeared,blocking the lava but the lightnings were melted and the same happened to the lava.”Lava Dragon!”Williav roared and a lava dragon materialized and flew towards them.

“Lightning Triple Wall!”Kuro roared and thrice the amount of lightnings formed a wall,a huge wall.The Lava dragon was destroyed together with the wall at the same time.”Lava Hammer!”Willias Roared and a hammer of lava slammed itself at Kuro who roared,”Lightning Purple Wall!”

A Purple Wall of Lightnings appeared blocking the hammer which was dispersed later.”Damn,you cooks of this island,your boss is already in my hands,you have to die too!”He said gritting his teeth,did he think Kuro was a cook?

“Time to start the offensive!” Kuro roared.”Elephant Lightning Hammer!”Kuro roared as an elephant sized hammer of lightnings appeared.”FALL!”He roared and the hammer fell,crushing Willias but he was still alive!
