Summary:
It's the year 300x, and the cruel (and bald) emperor of the Maruhage kingdom has ordered a hunt on all who possess hair. Only one man can stop him: Bo-BoBo, the yellow, afroed master of the Fist of the Nose Hair technique. In this volume, Bo-BoBo and his sidekicks Poppa Rocks, Jelly Jiggler, Beauty and Gasser take on Halekulani, the final remaining member of the Bald Emperor's "Big Four," a crack team of ultra-powerful warriors determined to bring an end to the reign of hair in the Maruhage kingdom.
