Why would a Saint Seiya become a pirate?

Where does this sixth sense come from?

And what about your Moonwalk? Although Fanny had already predicted that Sanji would learn it, what's with the Tempest Kick?

When did you secretly learn this trick?

Sanji put his hands in his pockets, a handsome and slightly smug smile on his face.

"Hehe, Fanny, people always improve! I don't want to keep being left behind by you guys."

"Besides, in order to better protect Nami and Robin, of course I have to work hard to become stronger!"

Van Nistel then turned his gaze to Usopp.

Usopp stood there with a smug look on his face, holding the longbow that matched his Saint Cloth in his hand.

This guy was being held hostage by the Navy just a second ago, looking all frail and weak.

The next second, Sagittarius used its God-Slaying Arrow; it was well hidden!

Usopp scratched his head, chuckled, and looked a little embarrassed.

"There was no other way, the situation forced us to! Everyone was in danger at the time, and if I didn't show some real skills, how could I protect everyone!"

Chopper stood quietly to the side, his eyes revealing determination and confidence after his transformation.

She was completely different from her usual gentle and weak demeanor.

Fanny watched all this, shook his head helplessly, and sighed inwardly.

As expected of the main characters, I really underestimated these guys; their growth rate is just too fast.

We need to step up our game, or we'll fall far behind them.

Then, Fanny lay on the ship for several days, not wanting to move at all.

I felt incredibly frustrated, as if I had completely lost face.

Then, what he wanted came.

Well, then, the navy finally arrived.

Luffy and his crew are desperately trying to escape on the vast ocean, their ship tossed and turned by the waves, and the situation is extremely dangerous.

After a difficult escape, they finally came across a small island.

Everyone happily went ashore, hoping to rest for a while, replenish their supplies, and ease their tense nerves.

Unexpectedly, they encountered trouble as soon as they got ashore.

A group of people blocked their way aggressively, with the leader holding his head high and looking arrogant.

"If you outsiders want to stay on our turf, you have to pay docking tax, disembarkation tax, pollution tax, and garbage disposal tax..."

Not a single penny less!

Hmm, that's it, like an empty island.

Upon hearing the word "taxes," Nami's eyes widened instantly.

Is this going to kill her?

They are the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Pirate Crew"!

Captain Luffy's bounty is now at least over 100 million.

You're asking us to pay taxes?!

We're already being kind by not robbing you.

Although the Straw Hat crew members bear the title of "pirates," they are not true villains and have their own principles and bottom lines.

Because their opponents were too weak, the Straw Hat actors began their performance.

Luffy immediately feigned innocence and said, "Oh dear, we really don't have any money on us, please let us go!"

"We are also dirt poor, and we even have trouble getting food."

The others also cooperated, each putting on their own acting skills, with Chopper also pretending to be pitiful.

Everyone else pretended to know nothing and tried to avoid paying taxes.

Finally, Fanny couldn't stand these guys' terrible acting anymore and stirred up a sandstorm.

Then, they led the way and made a runaway.

What else can they do if they don't run away? They can't just kill them all, can they?

Chapter 39 The Mysterious Old Man, the Truth Behind the Seven-Colored Mist

On the island, Luffy met a strange old man named Han So while eating.

The old man is studying a mysterious seven-colored mist.

According to him, he had come out of there before.

Luffy was filled with curiosity about the mysterious seven-colored mist and the treasure within it.

His eyes gleamed with excitement as he bombarded Han Suo with questions.

While Sanji was shopping with Nami, they encountered a strange man who could generate electricity.

The man stopped them and demanded with a stern face that even pirates had to pay taxes.

Sanji was about to explain.

Before he could even speak, and before Chopper could stop him, Nami had already reached her breaking point.

Her eyes flashed with anger, and with a casual wave of her hand, a bolt of electricity instantly knocked him unconscious.

Sanji was also electrocuted along with it.

Asking for money and playing with electricity in front of Nami, the ancient Greek goddess of thunder and lightning, is practically suicide.

Sanji, with his afro, looked at the man who had fainted on the ground and shook his head helplessly.

On the other hand, Luffy and Han So arrived at the port, where they heard a legend that there was a "ship graveyard" in the port.

Those who go in never come out again.

Upon hearing this, Luffy's curiosity intensified, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He grabbed Hanzo and plunged into this mysterious place.

Upon entering the rainbow mist, Luffy and his crew discovered that the sea was filled with abandoned ships.

The ships appeared and disappeared in the fog, creating a very eerie atmosphere.

Suddenly, someone shot arrows at them in a sneak attack.

Luffy used his Observation Haki to take a look and found that they were just a few kids, so he grabbed them all at once.

Han Suo looked shocked when he saw these little brats.

Because they turned out to be his childhood playmates from 50 years ago.

Luffy and Usopp truly deserve to be called "actors of acting skills." His intelligence increases when facing strong opponents, while his strength remains unknown.

He quickly became friends with these little kids.

One moment I'd be chasing and playing with them, the next I'd be telling them my adventures at sea.

Through their conversation, Robin discovered that time flows more slowly in the world within the rainbow mist.

If they don't find a way to get out of here immediately, Nami, Sanji, and Chopper, who are left outside, will all turn into old men and women.

Luffy and his crew wandered around in the colorful mist and found that they couldn't leave at all.

So they went to the children's leader, Rabbani, to ask if there was a way to escape.

Although the little brats of the Pumpkin Pirates quickly became friends with Luffy and the others on a non-physical level.

However, Labani was very wary of Luffy.

Unlike those who play pirate games and make a living, Luffy is a real pirate.

Just then, Nami suddenly called from outside, which rekindled everyone's hope.

Knowing that Luffy and his crew were trapped in the Rainbow Mist, Nami immediately took the search and safety device invented by Hanzo.

However, as soon as Nami and the others approached the rainbow mist, a sea monster emerged from the sea.

Sanji tried several times, but these Sea Kings were so tough that he couldn't kill them at all.

Immediately afterwards, one after another sea monsters emerged, baring their fangs and claws, and pounced on Nami and the others.

Just when Nami and the others were in danger, the hero appeared.

Fanny appeared before everyone in a very cool pose.

"Diamond Star Fist!"

With a wave of his hands, a powerful burst of cold air erupted, instantly freezing the sea kings into ice sculptures.

Nami looked at Fanny and breathed a sigh of relief.

On Luffy's side.

Labani still met with Han So, but he couldn't forgive Han So for siding with Witton, who had attacked them before.

After much explanation from everyone, Rabbani finally felt relieved.

Just then, Luffy, for some unknown reason, seemed to have learned something and suddenly flew over and took Labani away with him.

Everyone was baffled by Luffy's actions, wondering what incredible thing he had discovered.

Fortunately, with everyone's intervention, the matter was eventually dropped.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, Nami and the others used the safety device made by Han So to sail their small boat into the Rainbow Mist.

Just as Nami found everyone and was about to leave, Ivan stole their private boat.

Wheaton's henchman, Ivan, used the lifeline to return to Luluga Island alone.

Mayor Witton of Luluja Island, seeing his men return safely from the fog, decided to lead his army into the colorful fog.

Witton led his army into the seven-colored mist and began a massive looting spree.
