Raise your glass and ignite the world of One Piece

The unprecedented first "Food and Wine Festival" caused a huge sensation to Venn's surprise.

As early as the preparation stage, Wayne directly arranged for William to find the World Economic News Agency and place a full-page advertisement.

The one-month countdown has made the world, which has never experienced this kind of publicity model, look forward to this event.

What surprised the people the most was that the Wine Festival actually attracted the chief instructor of the Navy Headquarters, former General Zefa.

Your Excellency, the Chief Instructor, likes fine wine. This is something that all the well-known naval officers and commanders under him know.

After Marshal Warring States received the report that Zefa would be the special guest judge of the Wine Festival, he had no objection.

The tragedy two years ago and the incident with Wayne a year ago made Zefa show some signs of alcoholism in the past year.

"It may be a good thing for him to take the initiative to participate in this civil celebration to relieve his emotions."

He was just glad now that the old guy Garp liked drinking tea instead of drinking alcohol.

Otherwise, the one appearing in the South China Sea now might be this messy old guy.

Since the Warring States Period approved it, other navies would not say anything.

As a result, the first Wine and Wine Festival achieved unimaginable success by leveraging Zefa's reputation.

Even before the Wine Festival ended, we had already received applications from wine merchants in the East China Sea, West China Sea, and Beihai.

It’s a certainty that the next Wine and Wine Festival will go beyond the South China Sea!

The navy headquarters team brought by Arizefa attracted attention, but the existence of the revolutionary army did not attract any attention from the World Government.

He even went so far as to win the title of "Bacchus" himself and get the right to drink wine for a year...

Wayne, the low-key president, hid behind the scenes throughout the whole process and did not attract any special attention.

However, as hosts and executive foremen, William and Carl's names became popular.

The popularity of the Wine Festival has made Ranhai Wine Store a world-renowned wine store.

Low-priced and high-quality wine, with a real burning of the ocean attitude, has brought a big reshuffle to the wine market in South China Sea in half a year!

Of course, Wayne will not drive his peers to death.

If they are willing to become a distributor of Ranhai Liquor and eat meat themselves, they can also drink some soup!

Kidd, who received unimaginably generous dividends, worked even more enthusiastically.

He took Kira and a group of younger brothers, all working towards a better life as a regional president...

Bonnie only showed up after Zefa left.

Although she was a little unhappy that she couldn't really go to the Wine Festival, she was also shocked that Wayne could still have such a relationship in the Navy.

"Ten cargo ships are not enough? Then bring the Zui Xian over first to deliver the goods!"

Wayne's planned trip to the West Sea was delayed until the middle of the year by the overly popular business.

This was only the second year after he defected from the navy, and he had already basically unified the liquor market in the South China Sea.

"Although the Zui Xian has a small carrying capacity, it is fast. Bonnie, I'll leave it to you!"

The phone bug in front of Wayne wore a funny lipstick and imitated Bonnie and shouted angrily:

"You actually want me to deliver the goods in person?

"Can't that idiot Kidd speed up the shipbuilding!"

"That's a treasure tree, Bonnie. Although the requirements for merchant ships are not that high, just the keel is made of treasure tree, but not all giants are professional shipwrights."

Wayne was convinced by Bonnie's impatience:

"Understand, outsiders are not allowed to enter Tahara Island. Currently, only Kidd has passed the giant test, and Kira is even worse.

“You can’t let William and Karl go there too, right?”

He winked and joked:

"Or, go by yourself?"

"Bah! I just dealt with two wine merchants today who are trying to kill you!"

Bonnie wished she could be right opposite Wayne so she could spit in his face:

"You are behind the scenes, we are very busy!"

"Ah ha, hard work, anyway..."

"Boom blah..."

"Well, look, I have a lot of things going on here, that's it, I'm dead!"

"you……"

"Kaga!"

Wayne breathed a sigh of relief. With the expansion of the wine club, he himself was already very busy.

"Reliable managers are hard to find. William and Karl are already very capable, but they also have to take care of the liaison with the Revolutionary Army."

Only William, Karl and himself knew about the cooperation with the revolutionary army.

Not even Bonnie knew.

Not to mention Kidd and Kira.

The revolutionary army's intelligence system and wide-ranging grassroots personnel gave the wine club great convenience in its expansion.

At the same time, the wine club also gave them a very suitable public identity.

mutually beneficial.

In just the past six months, the revolutionary army used the intelligence network sheltered by the wine club to secretly provoke two civilian wars.

The liberation of two small countries where the people were deeply oppressed became fertile ground for the development of revolutionary ideas.

"Boom blah..."

The phone bug was still calling, and Wayne's face became serious. He took the white phone bug over and answered the call.

"Ain, is Teacher Zefa okay?"

"Master Wei En...President!"

The voice of a determined young woman came from the phone bug:

"Yes, Teacher Zefa is well. The title of 'Bacchus' has been spread throughout the headquarters."

Ain's voice was full of helplessness:

“Originally we were firmly against Mr. Zefa’s drinking, even if it was free drinking for a year.

"but……"

The phone bug looked grateful again:

"President Venn, your Liuhe·Multipurpose Medicinal Liquor has made Teacher Zefa's condition better day by day!

"Ain, thank you, president!"

"Hey, don't be so polite. After all, we are from the same school."

Wayne smiled bitterly and shook his head. Ain was good at everything, but he was too serious.

"Besides, it's okay to drink in moderation, but if you drink too much, even the all-purpose medicinal wine won't work. You must supervise Teacher Zefa!"

"Yes, President Wayne!"

Ain's voice immediately became serious, and Wayne even suspected that she was taking notes in a small notebook.

"President Venn, I am contacting you this time because Teacher Zefa has received some news.

"Although it should be published in tomorrow's newspaper, since you are going to Xihai soon, it is necessary to let you know about this matter immediately."

"what's up?"

Is it related to the West Sea?

"Because the huge power of a certain big pirate in the New World has finally been determined, the General Staff has decided to treat it as a threat on the same level as the three 'Sea Emperors'!"

Ain's voice made Wayne become serious.

"Therefore, since then, the strongest forces in the New World have been collectively known as the 'Four Emperors', and the latest 'Emperor' is——

"'Red-haired' Shanks, and his 'Red-haired Pirates'!"

"...Has Shanks become the 'Four Emperors'? It is indeed a huge event."

Wayne nodded slowly. Shanks was a great pirate from the Western Sea, so Zefa instructed Ain to inform him.

The West Sea and the New World are separated by a windless zone. With the strength of the red-haired pirates, they can come and go easily.

So it is necessary to be vigilant.

But Shanks became the "Four Emperors" because his huge power was discovered by the navy?

"Shanks does have some powerful captains under his command. Has another strong man joined recently?"

Wayne knew very well that Shanks was usually just a Red Firth carrying a boatload of people around.

But that was just the flagship of the Red Hair Pirates, carrying the main team, mainly cadres.

It is impossible for any of the four emperors to be without huge power.

Shanks' strength has long reached the level of "Emperor", but it is precisely because of insufficient power that he has always been inferior to the three "Emperors of the Sea".

"It's Elbaf, the 'Kingdom of Warriors'!"

Ain's tone was full of heaviness.

As a lifelong enemy of pirates, she believes that every increase in pirate power is a danger to the world.

Not to mention someone of the "Four Emperors" level.

"The headquarters has confirmed that Elbaf, the giant kingdom in the new world, is Shanks' territory - at least an ally!"

"So that's the case, no wonder..."

Even the world government is afraid of Elbaf, but Shanks can actually get their approval.

Strictly speaking, based on this alone, his power and overall strength can even surpass the veteran "Yonko", Kaido and BIGMOM!

"...Teacher Zefa, please rest assured, I am just a businessman, there will be no problem——"

"Besides, there are not many pirates who don't like wine. Shanks is at least the one who is easiest to reason with among the Four Emperors, right?"

Wayne didn't care about meeting Shanks.

"Please don't take pirates lightly."

Ain was still so serious, and Wayne could only nod in agreement.

"Thank you for your hard work during this time, Ain. With the convenience of the navy, our business has gone much smoother."

"But without revealing the identity of the president, there is only so much we can do."

"That's enough. The next step is up to me."
