Chapter 106 / Chapter 107

Nami looked at Mei Di, blinked her big eyes, and said with a smile, "Sister Mei Di, remember to mix more wine. I love your wine the most."

"Sister Carmen, I want to eat that mushroom soup. It's the best soup I've ever had."

Kaya looked at Carmen, her eyebrows arched, her smile sweet and innocent, she was very cute.

Carmen crossed her arms and smiled, saying, "That's nothing. It's a rare occasion to host a banquet, so I'll do my best."

Mei Di nodded and smiled, "Yes, since this is the first time hosting a banquet, I will take it very seriously."

"Don't worry, we'll prepare plenty of fine wine later. Everyone can drink as much as they want; we guarantee you'll have your fill."

Carina couldn't help but clap her hands and said with a smile, "We have delicious food, fine wine, and now we've acquired such a treasure ship!"

"Today is truly something to celebrate! Having a party would be the best, hehehe~~"

Perona flew through the air, her laughter never stopping, "Yes, yes, yes, a party! I love parties the most, ha ha ha ha..."

Makino looked at Mei Di and said Gentle, "I've worked in the tavern for many years, I can help you out."

Reiju and Baccarat exchanged a glance, both of them very happy.

"After sailing at sea for so long, it's time to relax."

Baccarat smoothed her Deep Red hair, smiled faintly, and said, "Chris has been Cultivation very hard; I'm really worried he'll overwork himself."

Reiju nodded gently and smiled, "It's not just him who needs to relax; everyone does."

"I'm really looking forward to the banquet!"

(Now that you've read this chapter, you know these women aren't useless. Some can cook delicious food, some can mix fine wines; they're not just dispensable beauties (￣￣).) 10.

Chapter 106

Evening.

At this moment, the setting sun in the western sky was about to disappear, dyeing the clouds red, creating a magnificent sight.

On the deck of the New Chris.

The tables and chairs were all set up, and the tables were laden with fine wine and food.

Everyone had arrived and was seated, waiting for the banquet to begin.

Chris, who was in the very center, quickly stood up and yelled.

"Men, enough chit-chat! Tonight, eat and drink your fill, and don't leave until you're completely drunk..."

As soon as he finished speaking, enthusiastic applause and deafening shouts erupted from the crowd.

"Well done, Captain! I love you so much, hahaha..."

"Long live Captain Chris!!"

"I'm so excited, I'm about to cry, waaaaah~~"

"Hurry up, all of you, stop talking nonsense and drink it, bottoms up!"

"Let's have a drinking contest! In our village, everyone knows my name. People in the underworld have given me a nickname—the Immortal of a Thousand Cups Who Can't Get Drunk!!"

"Brothers, this guy's too arrogant, let's take him down..."

The scene was incredibly lively, with cheers and laughter echoing throughout the entire ship.

Pato looked at Bepo and said with a grin, "Come on, let's drink! We won't leave until we're drunk!"

Bepo shook his big head repeatedly, refusing, "No, no, I can't drink! Have mercy, Pato!"

"Captain, we've known each other for so long, but this is the first time we've ever drunk together. How about we have a drinking contest? Hahahaha..."

Burgess slammed his fist on the table and burst into laughter, issuing a challenge.

Doc Q ate his food, his smile still as unsightly as ever, he coughed and said, "The Captain's drunken state must be particularly unsightly, hehe~~"

Luo remained aloof and bluntly stated, "You're overthinking it. Such a thing is impossible."

"After all, the Captain ate the Repel-Repel Fruit. He can just reject alcohol directly; drinking alcohol is no different from drinking water."

Hawkins nodded, his voice low. "So, when it comes to drinking, no one can beat the Captain."

Gin stood up, holding his wine glass, and faced Chris respectfully, saying, "Captain, let's have a drink."

Lafitte waved his hand and smiled slightly, "If you want to drink, then let's drink together. What's the point of drinking with just two people?"

"Come on, let's all have a drink together, shall we?"

Kuro raised his glass, looked at everyone, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

"Alright, make yourselves at home, let's drink!"

Chris picked up his glass, and without saying a word, tilted his head back and gulped down the wine.

Then everyone started drinking and chatting freely, creating a very lively atmosphere.

Snap!

Chris lit a cigarette, leaned back in his chair, looked up at the night sky, and smoked silently.

Reiju looked at Baccarat, her beautiful eyes sparkling, a sweet and charming smile on her pretty face, and said Gentle, "Everyone is so happy, including Chris."

Of course.

Baccarat picked up her glass, took a small sip, her eyes crinkling into a smile, and said, "The team is getting stronger and stronger, and everything is moving in a positive direction."

"Why would Chris be unhappy? It doesn't make sense."

At this moment, Nami looked at Carina and laughed loudly, saying, "How about it? Can you still drink? You can't outdrink me, hahaha..."

Carina scoffed and scoffed, "Women need to survive with their wisdom, but they also can't be too bad at drinking. Let's go again!"

"You guys are so amazing! I'm the worst drinker, sob sob..."

Perona sat in the chair, looking at the two of them, her little face full of frustration and annoyance.

Kaya looked at her, blinked her bright, beautiful eyes, and said with a pure and gentle smile, "It's okay, I don't drink either."

"It's perfect that I'm here to keep you company, isn't it?"

Honey Queen smiled and said to Belo Betty, "I'm so happy, I haven't been this happy in a long time. Let's have a drink together!"

Belo Betty glanced at her sideways and sneered, "You want to have a drinking contest with me? Don't be ridiculous, drink up!"

Mei Di ate, she looked at Carmen, smiled sweetly, and praised, "The food you cooked is absolutely delicious."

"I'm impressed, that's really amazing."

Carmen leaned back in her chair, crossed her legs, took a small sip of her drink, and praised, "You're the one who's amazing! The cocktail you made is really delicious."

Makino looked at the two of them, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said Gentle and generously, "You two shouldn't be praising each other."

"In my opinion, you are both incredibly talented. One of you can cook delicious food, and the other can mix fine wines. You are both amazing."

At this moment, Burgess roared, laughing loudly, "Drink up, all of you, get the hell out of there! Don't just sit there like idiots, hahahahahaha..."

Cheers! Drink up! We won't leave until we're drunk!

The banquet continued, everyone was in high spirits, drinking heartily and chatting non-stop...

Two days later.

Dressrosa, in a secluded room.

A woman stood at the window, dressed in Flamenco costume. She was very slender and looked absolutely stunning.

"Once that call was made, there was no turning back, sigh..."

Viola gazed up at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, her flawless face filled with worry.

After searching through various means, she finally obtained Chris's contact information.

Now she's conflicted, unsure whether she should make the call.

What I said to King Riku and Rebecca before was simply a deception.

Viola wouldn't entrust such an important matter to Death Squad; she would definitely make the call herself.

But if she makes the call and Chris tells Doflamingo about it, then she'll be completely finished.

"No, according to my investigation, Chris has many women around him, and he treats them all very well."

"He must be a chivalrous man who really likes beautiful women."

"If he agrees to my request and can rescue Dressrosa, I'm willing to become his woman."

Viola's gaze was resolute as she muttered to herself, "Love and all that stuff, it's all fake, all unreliable."

"Men all like to lie, and they all want to possess women's bodies."

"He'll definitely like me and help me."

"How I've lived my life is no longer important. Even if he beats me every day, I'll accept it."

"Most importantly, make Father happy and let the Citizens live a happy life."

"That's settled then. I'll call him. I absolutely must ask him for help."

"I'd give anything, even my life!!"

Without further hesitation, he took out his Den Den Mushi and dialed...

(Seeing the book review section, why do you all think these women won't get stronger? Will they find lots of Devil Fruit later and eat them? Are you suggesting they'll just be cheerleaders during battles? That's impossible! Those who will get stronger, don't worry, sweat -_-||.)

Chapter 107

Inside the Training Room of the Chris.

"I'm so happy, hosting a banquet is really amazing!"

Carina looked at them, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and said with a smile, "I really wish we could have more parties, so everyone could be happy. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Perona floated through the air, nodding repeatedly, her laughter ringing out, "Yes, yes, this princess also loves throwing banquets, absolutely loves them, ha ha ha ha ha~~"

"You're overthinking it, how could that be?"

The Honey Queen rolled her eyes at the two of them and said irritably, "If we don't talk about having banquets all the time, there's nothing new about it."

"Most importantly, what kind of person is Chris? How could he possibly waste his time hosting such a meaningless party?"

Belo Betty took a drag of her cigarette, as calm as ever, "Even if we enter the Grand Line, there won't be any more banquets."

"The only possibility is after defeating Crocodile and becoming Shichibukai."

Mei Di smoothed her light golden hair, a sweet smile appearing on her fair and beautiful face, and agreed, saying, "I'd be content if there were even one banquet like this."

"For Chris, a Cultivation robot, to be able to spare even one opportunity is already extremely rare."

"As for the next time, I don't even dare to think about it."

Makino nodded, her eyebrows curving Gentle.

"That's how a man should be: ambitious and striving to become stronger."

"It's not good to keep going out drinking."

Makino looked at them, smiled, and said, "Many of the people in my tavern are like that."

"Besides drinking every day, he does nothing else. His overall demeanor is terrible, and he has absolutely no goals."

Carmen shrugged and retorted directly, "I don't object to Cultivation, but Chris pushing himself to the limit is a bit much."

Nami waved her hand, blinked her big eyes, and said with a pure and sweet smile, "Everyone, don't worry."

"In a few days, we'll reach Loguetown, then enter the Grand Line, and soon we'll arrive at the Alabasta Kingdom."

"Anyway, I'll definitely become Shichibukai before the Division Commander Challenge."

Nojiko tossed her blue hair and smiled slightly, saying, "Loguetown, I remember it was called the 'Town of the Beginning and the End'."
