Chapter 124: Weird Taxation, Rainbow Mist Appears

After hearing the sound, the faces of the other diners in the restaurant changed instantly.

"Yes... the collection team is here!!!"

"Hurry, swallow all the food!!!"

But it was too late.

boom! ! !

The door of the hotel was kicked open.

A group of people dressed in soldiers' uniforms filed in.

The man who was obviously the leader walked towards the crowd step by step.

The man was wearing a purple uniform, had a purple-red slicked-back hair, and wore a pair of black-framed glasses.

Snapped!

The man patted one of the diners on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"Your wine looks delicious, but——"

"You should know that you have to pay alcohol tax when you drink alcohol."

Then, two men who looked like soldiers came up behind the diner and lifted him up.

"No, the money in my pocket needs to be left for my wife and children for living expenses!"

“Please don’t take it all.”

The diners struggled and shouted.

“Taxes are everyone’s duty!”

The man took the wallet that the soldier had found and spoke slowly:

"Those who don't pay taxes have no right to live here!"

This is just a twisted logic, and it was spoken out like this.

"Who is this guy?" Usopp asked subconsciously.

"Philip, son of Witton, the ruler of this island."

The chef at the side said:

"This guy always comes to us and forces us to pay taxes."

Suddenly, Philip seemed to have heard a voice and turned to look at everyone.

When he saw Henzo, the expression on his face instantly changed from gloomy to bright, and he strode towards the few people:

"Isn't this Dr. Henzo? My father was just looking for you."

Philip said with a half-smile on his face:

"I wonder how the research on rainbow mist is going?"

Henzo curled his lips, seeming to not want to talk to Philip:

"It's still the same. There's no way to tell when and where the rainbow fog will appear."

Hearing this, Philip's expression changed and his voice became stern:

"Dr. Henzo, your research is all done with taxpayers' money."

As he spoke, Philip pointed out the window. In that direction stood a tall tower.

"That Rainbow Tower was also built for your research."

"If your research doesn't progress, it will be hard for everyone."

At this time, everyone else in the hotel looked at Henzo with hatred.

Facing these looks, Henzo felt a little guilty, but he still did not defend himself.

Seeing this, Philip did not become aggressive, but prepared to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, he noticed Luffy beside him still eating the delicious food on the plate.

So he stopped, pointed at Luffy and said:

"You're eating a big plate of macaroni."

"As long as you use the big pan, you have to pay the big pan tax."

As they were talking, some soldiers prepared to step forward.

[Six-wheeled flowers bloom! ]

Robin crossed his arms as cherry blossoms fell in front of him.

The soldier who was about to attack Luffy had his bones broken by six arms that suddenly grew out of his body, and fell to the ground.

"Don't move."

Robin, who was sitting on the chair, spoke slowly and smiled.

"Devil fruit?"

Cold sweat broke out on Philip's face and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly asked the question that had troubled him for a long time:

"The ruler's son comes in person to collect taxes. Are you short of people?"

At the same time, another group of the Straw Hat Pirates were shopping.

"Why should I carry things for a woman like you?"

Zoro looked at Nami with an unhappy face and said that everyone should buy their own things, but in the end everyone was helping Nami to get things.

"That's right Nami, there's no need to buy so many things."

Chopper on the side has turned into a reindeer, carrying a lot of things Nami bought on his back.

"Of course, it's to be prepared."

Nami stuck out her tongue and said:

"Besides, I'm a girl. I can't carry so many things."

"Wow!! Nami-san, it's my honor to be your knight!!!"

When he saw Nami's appearance, Sanji's eyes instantly turned into love.

"Tsk! Perverted Kappa!" Zoro's face was full of disdain.

"Hey, you want to fight..."

"Lord Rick, it's them!!!"

Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away.

At the same time, a strange figure came in front of them.

"It's you guys who didn't pay the port tax?"

In addition to wearing the same purple uniform as the soldiers, the man also had a strange armor on his upper body.

Behind the armor, there is a very thick pipe connected to a bicycle generator.

"I am the grandson of Mayor Weedon, Rick!"

Rick collided the two arms of the armor together, and electric currents were stimulated.

"I'm here to collect taxes from the troublemakers. I don't care where your boat went. Just hand over the taxes now."

On the opposite side, Zoro and Sanji, who heard this, put the things in their hands on Chopper's back one after another.

Then he looked at the strange Rick:

"It looks like we have to fight this time."

Zoro put on his turban and Sanji lit a cigarette.

Just when the Straw Hat Pirates were encountering their enemies separately, the islanders at the port suddenly saw a huge ship slowly approaching the port.

Soon, the news that a large ship had arrived at the port spread throughout the island.

Naturally, this includes Luffy and his companions who had just dealt with Philip.

"Big ship?" When Henzo heard this, he suddenly seemed to have thought of something and started running towards the port.

Luffy, who also wanted to enter the rainbow mist through Henzo, naturally followed.

Next came Bai Ye and his companions.

On the way, they also met up with Nami and others who had just defeated Rick.

After putting the things they bought into the interior, everyone rushed towards the port together.

On the way, Bai Ye also briefly explained the rainbow fog to a few people.

When she heard that there was a large amount of treasure, Nami's eyes instantly turned into the shape of Bailey.

He actually took the lead and surpassed everyone else.

Soon, everyone arrived at the port and saw the huge ship.

"It's so huge!!!" Usopp exclaimed as he looked at the huge ship in front of him that was almost five stories high.

"It seems to be very old." Robin said after observing it for a while.

"Tariye Star." Henzo on the side said the name of the big ship.

"Do you know the name of this ship? Uncle!"

Luffy asked with a curious look on his face.

"This is the pirate ship that entered the Rainbow Mist fifty years ago."

At this point, Henzo suddenly became excited:

"Since it appears here, the rainbow mist should also..."

Before he could finish, Bai Ye pointed to the distance and said:

"It should be there."

Following the direction of Bai Ye's finger, everyone saw a thick fog with colorful colors.

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"

Luffy's eyes lit up: "It's really great!!!"

"Then let's go on an adventure!!!"

After hearing Luffy's words, the Straw Hat Pirates all looked confused.

There is Nami who is equally excited, and Sanji and Zoro who are slightly expectant.

Of course, there are also the timid Usopp and Chopper.

As for Bai Ye and Robin, they remained calm and not panicked at all.

"Can you take me with you?"

At this moment, Henzo suddenly knelt in front of everyone and said:

"My friends went in there fifty years ago, and I want to get them out."

"Please."

Seeing this scene, Luffy did not hesitate at all and grinned:

"Okay!"
