Raise your glass and ignite the world of One Piece

When Wayne saw the towering treasure tree, he had not yet become interested in it.

He was more interested in the island and its giants.

But now after witnessing with my own eyes how the giants utilize the precious tree wood...

Wayne realized.

"We must guide them to the right path!"

Wayne sternly explained to Bonnie, who was pouting beside him, the reason why he delayed his return:

"Although this is not the strongest 'Adam' wood, it is still a treasure tree and is much stronger than ordinary wood.

“Just like the Brewmaster, it’s made of the best wood that the Seven Waters can get.

"But compared to Baoshu, hahaha, this is just scum!"

Bonnie sneered, folded her arms and looked at Wayne sideways, which reminded him of the scene in "Tiffany and Mrs. Cow".

"Scumbag!"

Sure enough, Bonnie's words were a critical hit:

"You rode such a scumbag all the way through the windless zone and even came here!"

"Oh, isn't this a chance to make it look brand new!"

Wayne looked intently:

"You shouldn't be thinking that the Brewmaster has been wandering around the South China Sea, right?

"In two years, I will definitely go back to the Grand Line!

"After eating a devil fruit, the boat will always become stronger and better, right?"

"Humph!"

Bonnie rolled her eyes, but had to admit that Wayne was right.

In particular, the Brewmaster is just too small.

"Tsk, look at the giants building ships, it looks like they are making figures."

Wayne held his chin, looking in the direction of the temporary construction site where the giants were renovating the Brewmaster.

On the Brewmaster, the creator Bingshan left a complete set of drawings.

The Jiuxian, which was originally a modular structure, was built like a model for giants who are generally about 20 meters tall.

The Brewmaster was originally only a little over eight meters long, but the giants expanded it three times in one breath.

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

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

The Thousand Sunny is 39 meters long and 56 meters high.

The new Brewmaster is somewhere in between.

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

Wayne pointed to several giants who were making small parts:

"The giants will help me replace all the materials of the Brewmaster with precious tree wood and place it in the central dock of the new ship.

"In other words, the new ship will be a mother and daughter ship - it is obviously inappropriate to continue to call it the 'Jiuxian'."

"Huh? The ship is not big to begin with, but you want to cram a yacht into it?"

Bonnie said "Yo" exaggeratedly:

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

"Nonsense, I'm not!"

Wayne snorted:

"Then I have already thought of the name of the new ship. It will be called 'Drunken Immortal'!"

"Drunk Master? Drunk Master?"

Bonnie had a "Are you an idiot" look on her face, obviously wanting to complain about Wayne's name.

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

"I'm telling you, I understand both wine and drunkenness, but what exactly is a fairy?

"Standing up seems pretty powerful, but in this world, I've heard of gods and Buddhas, but I've never heard of such a thing as 'immortal'!"

"This is an existence I heard about since I was a child in my hometown."

Wayne didn't expect Bonnie to suddenly ask about this.

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

"I don't know what you think God and Buddha are like.

“But in my observations over the years, ‘gods’ are often expected and respected by people.

“People expect ‘God’ to bring them what they need.

"Either spiritual sustenance, or material needs, or security, and respecting 'God' because he brought them these.

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

Bonnie nodded thoughtfully, then snorted disdainfully:

"According to what you said, the Celestial Dragons are called 'gods'. Do they also meet the conditions you mentioned?"

"In the world government propaganda, they certainly fit the bill."

Wayne nodded seriously and pointed to the ground under his feet in response to Bonnie's surprised gaze:

"Don't forget, the World Government claims that the greatest achievement of the Celestial Dragon ancestors is 'creation'!

"So based on this, they call themselves 'gods' or 'descendants of gods'——"

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

"..."

Bonnie's expression changed continuously, and finally she felt deeply helpless.

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

"I haven't had much contact with the 'Buddhas' of this world.

"But you should know that Marshal Sengoku's Devil Fruit is the 'Human Fruit·Phantom Beast Species·Buddha Form'."

Although Wayne rarely saw Seng Guo take action in person, at least he knew who the other party was.

“It’s no secret that the will resides in the animal-type Devil Fruit.

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

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

Bonnie was stunned. Although she had met Dr. Vegapunk a long time ago, it was obvious that she was still unaware of these deep secrets.

"You're saying that the will of the Warring States Marshal's Big Buddha Fruit is likely to be expressed through him?"

"Yes, animal-type ability users will be affected by the will lodged in the fruit to varying degrees——

“For example, the CP9 Gabra that William killed before.

"He became even more ferocious and cunning because of the will of the 'wolf' inhabited by the Devil Fruit.

"If the character and will of the ability user are consistent with the will in the fruit, this will be greatly displayed."

Bonnie no longer wanted to complain about how Wayne learned so much confidential information.

"So that means?"

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

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

Wayne recalled Seng Guo's unique-looking afro and braided beard, and shook his head:

“Great wisdom, great awareness, great compassion, great power.

"'The justice that reigns over the world', a domineering and domineering look that is unique in the navy.

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

"..."

It was the first time that Bonnie heard Wayne's analysis, and she couldn't help but be fascinated.

But she reacted immediately.

"Bah! The Navy Admiral is also a shameless person, and he actually becomes a lackey of the World Government——

"And they sent people to take me back again and again!"

"...Isn't this what is called, 'If I don't go to hell, who will?'"

Wayne understood Sengoku's position 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 tactics and layout that Marshal Warring States is good at are not only used to deal with pirates.

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

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

"A wine seller pretending to be a philosopher——

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

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

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

Wayne's eyes looked at the precious tree that reached the sky and the earth, leisurely and fascinated, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face:

"Isn't 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's eyes widened, she stared blankly at the unfaltering smile on Wayne's face, and suddenly sneered:

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

"If you want to pursue this kind of realm, wouldn't it be enough to just hide your name and find an uninhabited island to play by yourself?"

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

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

“The great freedom I pursue is not great loneliness——

“In order to enjoy the world, we must make it the way it should be. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be like adding bile to fine wine and swimming in the Ganges?

He paused slightly and ignored Bonnie's question "Where is the Ganges?":

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