Raise a glass to ignite the world of One Piece

When he saw the towering treasure tree, Wayne hadn't become interested in it itself.

He was more interested in the island and its giants.

But now, after witnessing how the giants use the precious treasure tree wood...

Wayne realized.

"We must guide them on the right path!"

Wayne sternly explained the reason for his delayed return to Bonnie, who pouted furiously beside him:

"Although this is not the strongest 'Adam' wood, it is also a precious tree, much stronger than ordinary wood.

"Just like the Jiuxian, which is made of the best wood that can be obtained in the Seven Waters.

"But compared to the precious tree, hehehe, this is scum!"

Bonnie sneered, folded her arms and squinted at Wayne, reminding him of the plot of "British Sweet and Mrs. Niu".

"Scumbag!"

Sure enough, Bonnie opened her mouth with a crit:

"You took such a slag all the way through the windless belt, and even came here!"

"Hey, isn't this a chance to refresh it!"

Wayne didn't look sideways:

"You don't think that the Jiuxian has been wandering in the South China Sea, right?

"In two years, I will definitely go back to the Great Route!

"After eating a devil fruit, the boat should always be as strong as possible, right?"

"snort!"

Bonnie rolled her eyes, but she had to admit that Wayne had a point.

In particular, the Jiuxian is really too small.

"Tsk, watching giants build a ship, it's like making a figure."

Venn held his chin, and he was looking at the temporary construction site where the giants rebuilt the Jiuxian.

On the Jiuxian, the creator Bingshan left a full set of blueprints.

The Jiuxian, which was originally a modular structure, is really like a model for giants with a height of about 20 meters.

The Jiuxian was originally only a little over eight meters long, but the giants tripled it in one go.

The brand-new "Jiuxian" has a length of 25 meters, a single mast, a height of about 20 meters, and a width of about 12 meters.

Thanks to the alcohol powered jet engine, the boat can get enough power even with only one sail.

For an intuitive comparison, the Forward Meili is 13 meters long and 11 meters high.

The Qianyang is 39 meters long and 56 meters high.

The new "Jiuxian" is somewhere in between.

"However, I am not planning to abandon the original Jiuxian."

Wayne pointed to several giants who were making small parts:

"The giants will help me replace all the materials of the Jiuxian with treasure tree wood, and place them in the central dock of the new ship.

"That is to say, the new ship will be a daughter-in-law ship—it is obviously inappropriate to continue calling it 'Jiu Xian'."

"Huh? The boat isn't that big, so you want to stuff it with a yacht?"

Bonnie gave an exaggerated "Yo":

"It seems that I really can't call you a scumbag?"

"Nonsense, I am not!"

Wayne snorted:

"Then I've already thought of the name of the new ship, it's called 'Drunken Immortal'!"

"Jiu Immortal? Drunk Immortal?"

Bonnie's expression of "Are you an idiot" obviously wanted to complain about Wayne's name.

But just as she was about to open her mouth, she paused again and put on a curious expression:

"I said you, I understand both wine and drunkenness, what exactly is a fairy?

"It seems to be very powerful, but in this world, I have heard of gods and Buddhas, but I have never heard of such things as 'immortals'!"

"This is a kind of existence that I have heard of since I was a child in my hometown."

Wayne didn't expect Bonnie to ask this out of the blue.

But after thinking about it, he still slowly expressed his thoughts:

"I don't know what gods and Buddhas you think look like.

"But in my observations over the years, 'God' is often expected and respected by people.

"People expect 'God' to bring them what they need.

"Either spiritual sustenance, or material needs, or safety, and because 'God' brought them these, respect him.

"So now the leaders of some forces are honored as 'gods'!"

Bonnie nodded thoughtfully, then snorted disdainfully:

"According to what you said, Tianlong people are called 'gods', do they also meet the conditions you mentioned?"

"In the world government propaganda, they do fit."

Wayne nodded seriously, and pointed to the ground under his feet in the face of Bonnie's surprised eyes:

"Don't forget, the world government claims that the greatest achievement of the ancestors of the Tianlong people is the 'creation of the world'!

"So based on this, they call themselves 'God' or 'Descendants of God'—

"It means that they are the 'chiefs' of the whole world, and everyone should thank their ancestors for their kindness!"

"..."

Bonnie's complexion changed continuously, and finally she was deeply helpless.

"I have to say that what you said makes sense, what about the Buddha?"

"I haven't had much contact with the 'Buddha' in this world.

"But you should know that the devil fruit of the Warring States Marshal is the 'Human Fruit·Phantom Beast·Great Buddha Form'."

Although Wayne seldom saw Zhan Guo take action in person, at least he was very clear about the character of the other party.

"It's no secret that the will resides in the animal devil fruit.

"The phantom beast fruit is even more in the form of a 'mythical or legendary animal or character'.

"Therefore, their will probably corresponds to their nature in myths and legends."

Bonnie was stunned. Although she had met Dr. Vegapunk a long time ago, it was obvious that she still didn't know these deep secrets.

"You mean, the will of the Great Buddha Fruit of Marshal of the Warring States Period is likely to be expressed through him?"

"That's right, animal-type ability users will be affected by the will lodged in the fruit to varying degrees—

"For example, Gabra from CP9 that William killed before.

"It is because of the will of the 'wolf' lodged in the devil fruit that he has become more ferocious and cunning.

"If the character and will of the capable person fit in with the will in the fruit, this point will be greatly displayed."

Bonnie didn't want to complain anymore, how did Wayne learn so much confidential information.

"That is to say?"

"With the strength and will of the Marshal of the Warring States Period, no one will believe him if he is said to be incompatible with the Great Buddha Fruit.

"Therefore, I guess that the original image of the 'Buddha' in this world is very similar to what he showed."

Recalling Sengoku's afro and braided beard, Wayne shook his head:

"Great wisdom, great enlightenment, great compassion, and great power.

"'Justice in the King's Landing', the unique domineering arrogance in the navy.

"Perhaps the 'Buddha' in this world is believed to be able to suppress the existence of evil with his own power."

"..."

It was the first time Bonnie heard such an analysis from Wayne, and she couldn't help being fascinated.

But she reacted immediately.

"Bah! The Admiral of the Navy is also a shameless person, and he actually became a lackey of the world government——

"And they sent people to arrest me again and again!"

"...Isn't this the so-called, 'If I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell'."

Wayne understood the position of Warring States very well.

With him at the helm, the navy will at least have a certain degree of autonomy, and will not be completely reduced to the "face" of the Tianlong people.

"The strategy and layout that the Marshal of the Warring States is good at is not only used to deal with pirates.

"It's just that the times have their limitations."

Wayne's meaningful words made Bonnie roll her eyes again.

"A liquor seller, pretending to be a philosopher--

"Okay, so what exactly is your so-called 'immortal'?"

"'Immortal', in the legend of my hometown, is a detached person who has jumped out of the world and cannot even be controlled by life and death——

"Carefree, free, detached from the world, not bound by anything."

Wayne looked at the treasure tree piercing the sky, fascinated leisurely, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face:

"Is it very similar to the state after being drunk?

"However, that is illusory and temporary after all. My ideal is to pursue such a state and enjoy the whole world freely!"

"you……"

Bonnie stared blankly at the innocent smile on Wayne's face, and suddenly sneered:

"To put it nicely, isn't it just hiding from the world?

"If you want to pursue this kind of realm, just hide your name and find an uninhabited island to play by yourself, isn't that all right?"

"Fool, that's nothing more than a savage."

Wayne withdrew his gaze, put his hands behind his back, and walked slowly towards the giants who were building the ship:

"The great freedom I seek is not great solitude—

"In order to enjoy the world, one must make the world the way it should be, or is it not like wine with bile and swimming in the Ganges?

He paused slightly, ignoring Bonnie's question "Where is the Ganges River?":

"So, I told you to clean up the trash, but it's a very serious matter."
