The soldier dragged the shopkeeper down the street in the direction of the base.

Countless people along the way paid attention to this incident.

They woke up from a dream and remembered what the navy was, an organ of violence, an army formed by the world government.

Fighting pirates is the meaning of this army being formed, so there is no doubt that the navy will fight pirates.

They have enjoyed the pirate economy for too much and for too long to completely ignore this.

If you insult the navy because it attacks pirates...... As long as they are detained as pirates, they will be taken away.

And the merchants of this island are not clean in the first place, they are just trading with pirates.

If you want to check it, you can just seal it up and throw people into prison.

There may not be a place to shout grievances.

The naval base is largely closed and autonomous, and if the base commander wants to open up, they really have no place to complain......

Who is that really the courtier, suing this official!

……

Uta walked out of the shop in a huff.

"Why, Luffy is obviously doing something very good, why are they so hostile to you?"

"There are a lot of third-rate pirates on the streets, and it's easy to have accidents, they will steal the residents' things and run away, and they will bully people, Luffy is doing a good deed!"

"But everyone doesn't like Luffy anymore, why!"

Doubts and dissatisfaction fill Uta's chest, she is a kind and empathetic girl herself, and has the common problems of an artist.

As she spoke, Uta's eyes turned red and watery.

"It's normal for me to be like this because I'm a businessman." Nuo Qigao said to Uta with a normal face.

"Merchants only care about money, pirates can give merchants a lot of money, so they will hate Luffy who drove away the pirates."

"We're ordinary residents, so we'll be grateful to Luffy for driving out the pirates." Nami continued.

"Aren't all the same?" Uta asked.

She has the perspective of a pirate, so in her eyes, residents and merchants are weak people, weak people who will be bullied by third-rate pirates, and in this perspective, everyone is the same for Uta.

"Don't worry, it's normal to be hated, even if it's Bailey, not everyone will like it, for example, I'm not interested in Bailey."

Luffy touched Uta's head, and her rabbit hair, which fell completely due to her low mood.

One thing to say, such a Uta has more charm and becomes more beautiful.

Still, Luffy wants her bunny hair to stand on end.

Luffy grabbed her rabbit hair and helped stand up.

The girl's misty eyes looked at him in confusion.

"Obviously, Luffy was so seriously injured in order to defeat these third-rate people, and they still hate Luffy......"

"It's so unfair!"

"It's normal for them to hate me, Uta, because I hurt them." Luffy said.

"Huh?"

"This kind of harm is not direct, but indirect, the pirates brought them a lot of money, I drove the pirates away, so they don't have the money that the pirates brought them, which is a kind of harm to the merchants."

"Luffy didn't take their money again! They've just lost the money the pirates gave them! Uta was dissatisfied.

"Their own money is still there, and there is no less!"

"Because the pirates have always been there, they have always had the money given by the pirates,

And the civilians don't have pirates to pay for, so the civilians won't have any resentment about me driving the pirates. ”

"And for businessmen, making less money, and not earning at all, is a kind of loss in itself, so they will think that I have hurt them."

Luffy simply explained to Uta the reason why he was hated.

"The merchant is too annoying......"

"The merchant is too annoying......"

"Nami also hates merchants, and there are a lot of books in the bookstore, so Nami can't even read them!" Nami said to Uta with a grin.

"Stupid Nami, why should others show you for nothing." Nokigao said.

"Slightly!" Nami grimaced.

Luffy bought a glass of orange juice and handed it to Uta, "Merchant......"

He was just thinking that in simple words, five or six young men quickly surrounded him.

"What are these people doing?"

Luffy looked at them strangely.

"It's you, hacking our boss to death!" The young man said viciously to Luffy.

"There are so many people who died at my hands, I don't know who they are, but I guess it's pirates." Luffy twisted his neck.

He didn't cut anything other than cut some pirates to practice swords and increase his experience against the enemy.

But it's amazing that there are still people who dare to stand in front of him like this, and they are very weak people at first glance.

These people are fifteen or sixteen years old, probably.

"You guys, you don't want to live anymore, do you?"

The navy that followed Luffy shouted loudly.

"Your Highness, these people are local gangsters." The mariner explained.

"Gangster?"

Gangsters are also products of wealthy towns, and gangsters are a bit special.

They don't have a bounty order, and they're not pirates, so the navy doesn't care about the gangsters in general.

The gangsters are left to the sheriff to deal with.

But...... Can a sheriff run a gang? No.

So the gangsters have become a very weird, unmanageable product.

In large countries, there will be a king's army to deal with the gangsters, and the navy will ignore the gangsters under normal circumstances.

Unless the gangsters go to sea, then their profession will be transformed into pirates, and they will have a wanted warrant, and the navy will take the initiative to attack them.

"Luffy! Today I'm going to avenge my dead boss! ”

The gangsters shouted as they pulled out their muskets and aimed them at Luffy and his companions.

In an instant, the silver moon flickered, and the king's sword fell into the scabbard.

"What kind of strange species is a gangster?" Luffy asked with grin.

Because of the drawing of the knife, the wound that had been healed broke open a little.

Under normal circumstances, this thing is rampant and domineering on the West Sea side, and he doesn't remember it very clearly.

"Your Highness, gangs are generally composed of locals, they are all gangsters, they will collect protection money from the shops on the street to make a living, and occasionally some gangs will call pirates brothers, but under normal circumstances, they will not go to the sea to be thieves......"

The sailor explained that there were gangsters in Rogue Town, and in the original plot, Luffy's younger brother, Bartolomeo, was a gang from Rogue Town, and he ruled the island, including Rogue Town, and the underground forces of one hundred and fifty towns went to sea.

And then this guy is Luffy's number one fan, even if Luffy is the enemy of the whole world, he will stand behind Luffy.

As for why it is an enemy of the whole world...... This guy declared war everywhere under the banner of Luffy to encircle his territory, and also burned the flag of the red-haired pirates, declaring war on Shanks on behalf of Luffy......

It's classic, my idol's idol, not my idol.

"Look, businessmen also have to pay protection money, so there is a reason why they want money." Luffy said to Uta.
