Cidre Guild

Built around its leader and a handful of officers, the Cidre Guild pads its numbers with civilians coerced into manufacturing its arms. The organization fields gear and weapons fueled by fizzy water, which is why its headquarters sits on an island rich in natural carbonated springs. Its rank and file split into three squads, the Carbonate Assault Army, the Carbonic Acid Fire Unit, and the Carbonated Sword Unit, headed respectively by Cidre, Ginger, and Guarana, though the practical distinctions between them stay vague.

The guild's stated mission is the elimination of every pirate it meets, with no regard for whether a crew sides with the World Government. Its members enslave island residents, hold their families hostage, and force them to mass-produce the carbonation technology that arms the whole operation. The flagship hunting ground is the spring-fed island where this weaponry is built in a cola factory.

Cidre founded the group after Douglas Bullet razed his hometown, swearing to hunt pirates and recruiting the like-minded Ginger and Guarana. The trio later ambushed the Thousand Sunny, drove the Straw Hats ashore, and tangled with Luffy and Boa Hancock at a bathhouse and the cola factory. Zoro and Sanji easily routed the soldiers sent back at the Sunny, who confessed they had been pressed into service. In the end Luffy crushed Cidre inside the special rig he had engineered to face Bullet, while Hancock petrified Ginger and Guarana, freeing the captives, who thanked the crew with mountains of cola.
