### Summary
A flashback reveals the intricate origins of Captain Kuro's infamous reputation, finally explaining his desire for "peace of mind." Three years prior, seeking to escape the relentless life of a pirate, Kuro executed a masterful plan. With the help of his hypnotist, Jango, he had a crewmate, Nugire Yainu, impersonate him. This fake "Captain Kuro" was then "captured" by a then-unknown Marine—revealed to be none other than Morgan—whose subsequent promotion established his future tyranny in Shells Town. With the world believing him dead, Kuro was free to begin his new life as the butler Klahadore, setting the stage for his current treacherous plot against Kaya.
