Chapter 267 The Change of Tokushima

Chapter 267 The Change of Tokushima
With the convenience of taking over the family intelligence network, Mousse found out that Cyrus had become famous in recent years and his strength was much stronger than when he first met.

In contrast, Charlotte Armand fell into a bottleneck early and stagnated. If she was still looking for a duel with Cyrus, she would only lose more and more miserably each time.

But under such a background, Charlotte Armand still enjoys it and suddenly became interested in cooking. Even if Mousse is a straight man of steel, he naturally makes a bold guess:

"Sister Armand must have taken a fancy to Cyrus, right?"

Cyrus is a well-received character in the anime "One Piece". He is also a model husband and loving father. He is also quite strong. If he can become his brother-in-law, Mousse will definitely be happy to see it.

But at the beginning, Mousse didn't have much expectations for this, because the cruel and bloodthirsty Charlotte Armand and Cyrus, who regretted his past murders, were too different.
Until Mousse learned that Charlotte Armand hadn't killed a single person since her second defeat to Cyrus
"For the ruthless and bloodthirsty snakehead clan, it is extremely difficult to restrain their nature, and the stronger they are, the more difficult it is. Sister Armand's strength can achieve this level, Is this the power of love?"

After sighing with emotion, Mousse decided to go to the Kingdom of Dressrosa to take a look again. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, he should help the third sister fight for it.

Speaking of which, Cyrus is trustworthy in both his strength and character. If he hadn't seemed to have overcorrected after he reformed himself, and he seemed to have a moral obsession, Mousse might have suggested that the family extend an olive branch to him.
Before setting foot on the land of Tokushima again, Mousse knew that the economy here was improving, but he was still somewhat surprised when he saw it:
"I remember the last time I came here, all the civilians here were still pale. There are 10 people in the country, only the royal family and nobles who are the ruling class, officials and soldiers who constitute the state machine, and gladiators who are the reserve officers. If you can guarantee enough food, the total is less than 5, and if you count the relatively wealthy citizens, it may not be able to reach 1. Now all the people are fed and clothed so quickly, and they are heading towards a well-off life?"

However, Dressrosa's folk customs have also undergone subversive changes. Although it may be the reason that Granose has not yet eaten the fruit of childishness, the iconic smart toys of the original time and space are still not seen on the street, but the number of bars has increased. Ten times, and women with cool clothes and bold styles are everywhere
Even the corrupt casinos, Mousse has seen more than one.
And in the only auction house in this city, Mousse even saw slaves being auctioned publicly!

Without even having to investigate, Mousse knew who caused such a big change, "Brother Ming made this place his base camp and exchange, which has indeed boosted the local economy, but the negative impact is also great! "

However, Don Quixote Doflamingo's reputation in this country is unexpectedly good.
Mousse naturally knew the reason. Although Brother Ming didn't directly manipulate King Liku to kill people everywhere and completely destroy his image like Yuan Shikong did, the step of extorting 100 billion Baileys didn't change.

King Liku originally wanted to stabilize Brother Ming first, and then ask the World Government to make the decision, but Wu Laoxing needed Brother Ming to do dirty work for the World Government at the time, how could he help him to force Brother Ming to submit?
As for repaying the money for King Liku, it is even more impossible. How can the world government be taken advantage of?
As a result, the 100 billion Baileys that were only temporarily borrowed from the nationals turned into huge sums of money that had to be repaid by themselves. Where did King Liku get so much money to fill the hole?

And because King Liku said it was only a short-term loan when he borrowed money, many citizens even borrowed out their living expenses out of trust in him. Once the money is not returned, they will not be able to eat!
Just when King Liku was in a state of desperation and the people were in despair, Brother Ming took his people "back" to the Kingdom of Dressrosa
Brother Ming was already very rich, and after extorting the 100 billion Baileys, he became even richer. Relying on his strong financial resources, the Don Quixote family not only offered considerable salaries to recruit a large number of people in Dressrosa , and also "generously" advanced the monthly wages of local employees to help them relieve their urgent needs.

So while King Liku was scolded as a greedy tyrant, "Ten Yasha" Don Quixote Doflamingo, one of the newly promoted "King Shichibukai", became the savior of this country.

But that's just the beginning.
King Liku was already very afraid of the Don Quixote family, and after their reputation was ruined, they had no other way to deal with them. Naturally, it was impossible to receive taxes from their properties, so the tax revenue could only be counted on those in the country who were not recognized by Don Quixote. An industry controlled by the German family.

In addition, in order to repay the debts, the tax rate of King Liku was much higher than before. When the two were superimposed, the people of Dressrosa, who were still very poor at the time, could not bear it at all, so even if Dressrosa, who didn't like Mingo, The Rosa people can only go to him to avoid taxes.

And the more people who defected to Brother Ming, the heavier the tax on those who did not defect, forming a vicious circle.

In addition, the Don Quixote family's industry still exists as a competitor, how can the peers who are heavily taxed compete with them who do not need to pay taxes and are supported by black money?

As a result, every family went bankrupt and closed down one after another!

And when all the important industries in the whole country are controlled by Don Quixote's family, the order of King Liku can't even be heard in the palace, so who is the real king?
If it weren't for the fact that Cyrus, the "Legend of the Undefeated Arena" who was loyal to King Liku was not yet sure, "Amazing Sha" Don Quixote Doflamingo would definitely overthrow King Liku and be crowned king.
This is of course Mousse's own opinion, but it is not surprising that he would think so, because the current rules of the arena have also changed, sharp weapons are no longer restricted, and killing people is not considered a violation. This is obviously aimed at Cyrus.

If Cyrus also killed people with ruthless hands, the basis for his respect for King Liku would no longer exist, so why should he continue to be loyal to King Liku, who has only one identity left, instead of defecting to Tang Ji, who has a promising future? What about the Hod family?
But if Cyrus still insists on refusing to kill and continues to use his great sword that has not been used, how long can the undefeated legend last in the arena where the level of contestants is getting higher and higher?
However, the strength of Cyrus completely exceeded Brother Ming's expectations. Even if he suffered from the disadvantage of weapons, he still defeated all challengers, including almost all the cadres of the Don Quixote family!
