Raise a glass to ignite the world of One Piece

Chapter 16 The Guests of the Tavern

"Has it been triggered?"

Wayne has returned to the inner city.

When Ke Keluo drank the glass of ale wine made by Wayne with his ability, he sensed it.

"Remembrance Ale", one of the achievements of Wayne's attempt to integrate emotions into the creation of abilities.

Ale is a beer with a very old history.

It is said that this originates from Albaf, a country of giants with thousands of years of civilization inheritance.

Ale has a stronger and richer taste than ordinary beer and was once popular all over the world.

However, due to problems such as difficulty in preservation and relatively unstable quality, it was gradually replaced by the current beer two hundred years ago.

However, the unique flavor of ale wine and the thousands of years of ancient inheritance are still embraced by many people.

It is true that the oldest wine in the world is "Irpe", a wine said to have originated in Alabasta.

But Irpe, as wines have evolved, is now gone.

Therefore, ale can be said to be a living fossil among the existing wines.

It can represent the "history" of alcohol to a great extent.

When reminiscing about someone or something, it is really appropriate to drink ale wine.

Therefore, Wayne tried to give the ale wine he reproduced with his ability the ability to "evoke the target's memories".

This is also one of the states that many people will involuntarily fall into when they are drunk.

The specific recall content will tend to be the most hidden memory, the memory that one actively or passively chooses to forget.

At some point, the effect of memory is very unexpected.

Ke Keluo is worthy of being called by Bingshan as a senior alcoholic who has "a lot of wine in his possession", but he can even get this kind of wine.

Wayne even wondered if her stationmaster's salary was really enough to buy alcohol?

"It seems to have an effect, but I don't know how far it can be recalled."

Wayne's stomach was rumbling in protest.

He hasn't eaten all day.

"This tavern seems to be good. Don't drink, just eat."

It was still early, and the capital of the Seven Waters had just entered the night, which was the busiest time for the Mask Carnival.

This also led to the bankruptcy of Wayne's original idea of ​​buying some specialty water and meat to fill his stomach.

There are people everywhere on the street, and a thick human wall surrounds every stall.

On the contrary, the usually bustling tavern seemed deserted.

Went into the tavern and ordered some food. Wayne sat on the seat and took out the metal flagon that Bingberg had prepared for him.

"Remembrance Ale!"

Shaking the jug, the liquid in it swayed, and Wayne nodded in satisfaction.

Taking a wine glass, Wayne poured half a glass of deep amber liquor from the jug.

Rich foam and rich malt aroma, this is a good quality ale.

"If the ability is created, you won't get drunk after drinking."

Fight with all your abilities, and now Wayne can support it for ten minutes.

But if he just drank some wine made by his ability, Wayne would not fall into a deep drunken state as quickly as if he drank the real wine directly.

He'll get drunk too, but at most he'll be a little dizzy and not incapacitated.

"Um……"

Although it was strange to put beer in a metal flagon, Wayne ignored the sporadic strange eyes around him and tasted it on his own.

"Unfortunately, the special effect of 'Remembrance' doesn't work for me."

However, it is not completely ineffective.

"My mind feels much clearer, which is an unexpected gain."

It's not that the color of knowledge and domineering is enhanced.

Instead, the thinking becomes sharp, and you can quickly distinguish all kinds of unreasonable things.

Just like now.

"Guest, please use your food slowly."

The waiter brought Wayne's food,

There are the specialties of the Seven Waters, as well as exquisite dishes from Puji, the "City of Gourmet".

And a glass of lemonade with ice.

The waiter took his leave, and Wayne picked up the lemonade he had specially ordered to sober up, and shook it in front of his face.

Seemingly noticing the ale in front of him, he casually put the lemonade aside, took a sip of the wine, and began to eat without haste.

It wasn't until the food was almost finished that Wayne sighed contentedly and picked up the lemonade glass again.

"Tsk, today's shui shui meat seems to have a particularly strong taste. It's really good."

He slowly shook the water glass in his hand, and the lemon slices on the glass also shook.

"However, isn't this kind of indiscriminate method the most despised by you who are proud?"

There was a slight blush on Wayne's face, and the energy of the ale was growing slowly.

He picked off the lemon slices and put them on the watery meat plate with a little soup left.

The moment the fresh lemon slices come into contact with the soup, they start to turn green quickly and then wither!

"It's really difficult for you to prepare the compound poison so quickly."

Wayne stood up slowly, and turned to look at the burly man who had come out from behind the bar counter.

This man has an inverted triangle figure, wearing a yellow spotted shirt, and his hair is in the shape of two funny horns.

Now, he had a serious face and clenched his fists a little nervously.

"CIPHER POL No.9, when did you find me?"

Wayne carefully put away the metal jug, put his hands behind his back, and turned his head to look in another direction.

It was a table of diners, all wearing celebratory gowns similar to Wayne's, and wearing masks.

They are also the only guests in the tavern besides Wayne.

"You guys, it's hard for you to wear such a strong mask and order so many dishes."

"...Our existence should not be known to outsiders."

Those few people stood up one after another, simply took off their masks and took off their disguises.

A young man with very thoughtful eyebrows and beard shook the red wine glass in his hand and took a step forward.

"Major General Mark Wayne."

Under the disguise of the young man was a spirited black formal suit, and a pigeon in a miniature formal coat landed on his shoulder.

He looked indifferently at the withered lemon slice on the plate on Wayne's table:

"No, ex-major general... I'm Rob Lucci from CP9.

"You shouldn't recognize us for such a ridiculous reason."

"Perhaps, but I am under no obligation to explain to you."

Wayne looked at the CP9 members who were much younger than he remembered, and sighed regretfully:

"It's a pity, I was leaving tomorrow."

"This shows that your blasphemy against 'God' cannot be forgiven."

Rob Lucci, who is only in his early twenties, drank the wine in his glass in one gulp and smashed the glass to pieces:

"As for the means... since you know us CP9, you should also know what our responsibilities are?"

"Espionage, and assassination?"

Wayne chuckled, and slowly walked out behind the desk:

"I see. It seems that Rob Lucci, known as CP9's strongest genius in the past 800 years, is also guilty..."

He stretched out his right hand and squeezed his fist:

"Why, haven't you mastered the six styles yet?"

"...can't be compared with you, Major General Wayne."

Lu Qi didn't add the word "before" this time.

"Let alone a few of them."

"..."

Long-nosed Kaku with two knives on his waist, Kalifa who was nervously pushing his glasses, and Bruno who walked to them.

This is the lineup of CP9 who came to the capital of seven waters. The other three guys are all unreliable fakes and have been performing other tasks.

As the strongest of them and the leader of the operation, Rob Lucci, he has absolute authority.

Therefore, these people were silent when he spoke.

"Frankly speaking, we will do our best to deal with you by any means."
