Cat Claws

The Cat Claws are the main weapon of Kuro. The are two furred gloves, at the end of each finger and thumb is a sword blade. They appear like long cat claws. They are first seen being used against Luffy.

Attack List
Kuro primarily uses a special attack called Shakushi (Death Scoop/Death Ladle), that allows him to sweep a large area, killing anything his claws connect with at random, including his own crew. Oda confirmed Kuro's Shakushi and CP9's "Soru" ability travel at roughly the same speed. The difference is when Kuro uses that technique, he cannot tell what he is attacking, whereas CP9 have mastered this ability and therefore can.


 * Nuki Ashi (抜き足, Stealth Foot) / (Stealth Walk): An ability in which Kuro moves to a certain location (usually behind an opponent) very quickly, almost looking like he teleported. He initiates this move by performing several quick foot movements to propel himself to another location, much like CP9's Soru, except that his feet's movements are more noticeable, suggesting that this ability is a rudimentary form of Soru.
 * (Creeping Cat): Like the Nuki Ashi, except he has more control and move about freely while appearing invisible. This is a technique name that comes from the English dub, as this is simply another use of the Stealth Foot in the Japanese version of the series.


 * Shakushi (杓死, Death Scoop) / (Cat Out of the Bag Attack): A fearsome attack that allows him to sweep a large area, killing anything his claws connect with at random, including his own crew. His attacks are so random they range from mediocre scratches to fatal eviscerations. He moves so fast even he doesn't know what he's attacking, and only stops when tired out. He initiates this move by swaying back and forth sideways in a partially lame manner--this is necessary in order to enter the "trance" needed to perform the move. The move also has a side=effect of generating purple clouds of smoke to rise from the ground as Kuro moves at his topmost speed.
