The so-called protection tax is the tax paid by the navy to protect the local people from pirates.

Not in the Navy's express regulations.

Before Roger, this situation was more common, and the world government had always turned a blind eye to it.

However, after Roger's death, the era of pirates came. In order to maintain their own image and save some people's hearts, the world government expressly stipulated that no protection tax should be collected in any name.

The civilians themselves have already paid taxes to the world government, and paying the so-called protection tax is completely robbery.

Because of this, most of the civilians in this world have a bad impression of the world government, and civilians would rather be pirates than navy.

Indirectly caused the rampant pirates.

This situation became more and more serious in the later period, which caused the navy to question the so-called justice, which directly caused the departure of Admiral Aokiji and became the root cause of the pirate.

Listening to Smoker's explanation of the protection tax, Moonlight Breeze showed a smile that was not a smile.

He has no sense of belonging to the navy, so he looks at all this from the standpoint of an outsider, and he looks more emotionally at jokes.

"So, there is a navy here that keeps collecting your protection fees?" Yueguang Qingfeng looked at the village chief.

"That's right, it's almost time. Aren't you here to collect protection fees?" the village chief said.

Moonlight Breeze didn't answer the village chief's words, but said to Smoker: "Smog, let's hide our boat first, it seems that our first task is to eliminate adultery!"

Smoker was startled when he heard the words: "Is the Commodore going to attack that navy? I'm afraid it's not easy to explain to the higher authorities!"

In any case, their current identities are also navies, and navies attacking each other is a taboo of the world government.

"How could it be dealing with the navy? I'm dealing with pirates!" Moonlight smiled faintly.

Looking at the expression of the moonlight and breeze, Smoker couldn't help feeling a chill on his back.

"Pirate? Good excuse! Tina is very happy!" Tina looked at Moonlight Breeze with burning eyes.

Smoker patted his forehead speechlessly, and went to deliver the order first. When it was his turn to be bold, Smoker never lost to anyone.

"Hey, old man, I'm here to buy oranges. This is a big business. You should be interested!" Yueguang Qingfeng turned to the village head and said.

"Don't worry, I'll pay the deposit first!" Seeing the village chief's disbelief, Yueguang Qingfeng took out a sum of money and slapped it in the village chief's hand.

Looking at the money in his hand, the village head was a little excited, and quickly said: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I will definitely release the news, not only our village, but people from other places will also rush over, and it will definitely be able to be done in two days. Let you purchase enough oranges!"

Moonlight Breeze nodded noncommittal.

The first day was peaceful, and they had handed over the first batch of supplies.

The people on the surrounding islands, after hearing that there was no problem with the transaction here, immediately drove their big boats to come here.

In the evening of the next day, Smoker quietly came to Moonlight Breeze's side and said, "Master Commodore, a navy is coming!"

After being stunned for a while, Moonlight Breeze suddenly laughed and said, "Go and get ready!"

There was some worry in Smogg's eyes, attacking a navy like them, it could easily be branded as a traitor.

If the expectations are correct, this navy must have a strong backer behind it daring to do so, and it would be unwise to fight directly with them at this time.

But Yueguang Qingfeng didn't think about this, he joined the navy with a playful mentality.

Would he, a ninja, really waste his time joining the navy just to inquire about a piece of news?

If he is willing, he can directly draw everyone, including the Warring States, into the illusion. What news can't he get at that time?

"Smog, are you questioning my decision?" Moonlight said lightly.

"No, dare not!"

Smoker could only go down and prepare.

At this time another navy also landed.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I just got the news that there are a lot of merchant ships gathered here, and they must be rich in oil and water. We can beat them hard, but don't let them run away!" A fat man with an obscene appearance patted his fat said with a beeping stomach.

Hearing the big fat man's words, the navy all showed a greedy look.

No one questioned Fatty, nor reminded them that they were marines and not pirates.

A large number of navies poured into the village and surrounded the trading market.

Seeing the large number of marines suddenly rushing in, the village chief's face suddenly turned pale, and he murmured: "Is that true? I shouldn't believe them, I shouldn't believe them!"

Not only the village chief became distraught, but other businessmen also turned their attention to Yueguang Qingfeng who was still picking oranges.

Someone stepped forward and said, "Master Navy, we don't want your money anymore, how about letting us go?"

"Yes, Lord Navy, we only have these goods, and there is really nothing left to honor you?"

Someone looked at Moonlight Breeze pitifully.

Yueguang Qingfeng looked up and found that everyone around him looked terrified.

"Don't worry, the transaction will continue, and there will be nothing wrong with me here!" Yueguang Qingfeng pointed to his cloak and continued: "The two words on it are not only beautiful!"

At this time, among a group of navy on the outskirts, the fat man slowly came out and said: "You guys, your conscience is greatly broken, you enjoy our protection, but you don't pay the protection fee in full, you didn't see us as the colonel In the eyes!"

Someone bravely stepped forward and said, "But we have handed over three times this year? We really can't get anything out!"

"You bastard!" The fat man said angrily, "Then what are these? Aren't these the supplies we need? If you are sensible, donate these supplies quickly, or if you have an accident, don't come to us!"

Threats, blatant threats, if they don't hand over, these navies can also turn into pirates.

Hearing what the fat man said, the man's face was ashen and his face trembled.

"My lord, these are the only supplies we have to survive, without them we will starve to death!" The man knelt down and said to the fat man.

"Go away! Don't pay? Huh, it seems that you are planning to make trouble now?"

"What will happen to them?" Suddenly a cold voice sounded from the crowd.

The fat man looked at the crowd in astonishment, his face was filled with anger, he wanted to see who would dare to talk to him like that.

When I saw Yueguang Qingfeng dressed in navy, I felt a little bit in my heart and said, "Who are you?"

"Comodore Moonlight Breeze!" Moonlight Breeze said.

Moonlight Breeze stepped forward slowly, looked at the fat man and said, "Which branch do you belong to? Who is your boss? I want to take a closer look at who knows and breaks the law!"

The fat man had cold sweat on his face when he heard the words, this crime is not a small one.

If he fails, he will be executed.

Fatty moved his eyes, looked around, and found that there was only Yueguang Qingfeng here.

A smirk could not help showing on his face.

"This person pretends to be a Commodore. He is extremely bold. If he is arrested, he will be executed on the spot if he resists arrest!"
