#how do they fund this do the marines/world government collect taxes???? like presumably i guess????????

[songofstrawhats]

These Marine branded cigars have me asking questions about the One Piece Verse tobacco industry that are literally never going to be answered

does the world government own tobacco farms??? factories???? how the hell does this work that they produce goods instead of just fighting and regulating stuff???

I guess they have to procure uniforms and rations, and cigarettes were historically part of military rations so it makes a certain amount of sense

But where do THOSE SPECIFIC CIGARS come from??? Do they have a deal with individual farms like they did with the cute milk girl from the chapter title comics???? Are they individually wrapped or is there a factory and industrialized cigar prodiction somewhere? Fishman Island has a candy factory so there's precedent for this I guess???

Also how many cigars does Smoker individually go through and how much of the military budget is spent keeping his arm holsters stocked up so he can be dramatic lmaooooo

#from ch 652 #back in loguetown my sister took one look at smoker and was all 'ah hes inventing new kinds of lung cancer' and I'm still laughing about it #went to a museum in a city with a large cigar industry a bit back and now i know just enough to be dangerous #does whatever town makes these cigars ALSO bake really good cuban bread because that is only good and correct #one piece #smoker #one piece meta #so I can find it on my blog this is not actual for serious meta...OR IS IT (it is not) #how do they fund this do the marines/world government collect taxes???? like presumably i guess???????? #au where the strawhat pirates are arrested for tax evasion #nami is personally offended #reading op
