Azur Lane: The Raven

Chapter 10: World Expo Invitation

Rome, Sardegna Empire

It was finally the day of the World Expo Invitation that was send by the Sardegna Empire and Poe was also inviting to the Expo since he's a member of Azur Lane; however he request a tow order which he doesn't need to worry since he's got Roon and Akashi, but he worries that Akashi will do something to him so he hired Belfast to do the towing which it takes a couple of weeks to reach Sardegna Empire and set up shop for the Expo. Poe was setting up shop with Roon and Akashi when a couple of customers arrive which is Ghostwolf (Red Dead Royal), KMS Nijmegen, and USS Gettysburg who is looking around the Expo.

USS Gettysburg: "Hey there Poe. How's business?"

Poe: "Hopefully busy; what can I get you for?"

Nijmegen: "Bismarck request a couple of parts for her rigs."

Gettysburg: "A couple of ration bar for my dear older sister."

Poe: "Did Enterprise staying away from those things?"

Gettysburg:" SHHHH!"

Poe understand that Enterprise is having ration bars behind Belfast backs including Commander Sakura so she hire her little brother of sneaking the bars to her without drawing attention and I doubt the sisters know about this.

Poe: "And Ghostwolf?"

Ghostwolf: "A couple of beer barrels and couple of parts I need for the cafe."

If you haven't read the Red Dead Royal then read it so you understand more, but I ain't spoil it. Poe look at the list and see that he got barrels of beer in the cooler and he knows why.

Poe: "Let me guess; your girlfriend drink the entire barrel of alcohol."

Ghostwolf(sigh): "You know it."

Poe sigh and head to the cooler to grab his  barrel of beer while everyone is looking around and notice Akashi talking with some of the couple of Sakuran kansens about the situation at homeland which things are calmer over there than ever since the Orochi Incident. Poe exit the room with the barrel of beer.

Poe: "Here you go and I have Roon to deliver the rest to the cafe. Make sure you put this far away from Prinz Eugen if possible otherwise next time you request the barrel it will be expansive."

Ghostwolf(shock): "WHY?"

Poe: "Remember last time."

Ghostwolf(realize): "OH!"

Last time Ghostwolf request a barrel of beer which is about 40 barrels because Iron Blood have an party at Ghostwolf's cafe and drink the entire stock of barrels which Prinz Eugen have about 25 barrels of beer in her system. Poe stare at Ghostwolf with a worry look on his face.

Poe: "For a girl that drink that much; I'm surprise that she didn't die from drinking to much."

Ghostwolf: "She knows how to drink her beer."

Poe and Ghostwolf stare at each other with a strange look which cause Ghostwolf to take the barrels that is on the cart and heading back to his cafe and pray that his girlfriend didn't drink the building down.

Poe: "How's Akagi Gettysburg?"

Gettysburg(happy): "She's doing excellent; we're going to enjoy the Expo together after I finish business here and maybe become intimate afterwords."

Poe: "That's right; you people have those heat things going on during the full moon and tonight is the full moon so you better not cause any trouble while we're here otherwise I have to put you people into sleep."

Gettysburg: "Don't worry; me and Akagi know what to do unlike certain someone."

Nijmegen: "What are you looking at? I'm not an animal thing."

Those two got into the fight a fight which cause Poe to get angry at them and ask them to take it outside.

Poe(angry): "GET OUT!"

The two left with their stuff and business return to normal with Expo happening. Poe manage to earn 900,000 coins on that day and decide to spend the rest of the Expo with Roon who invites him to Iron Maiden.

Rome, Sardegna Empire

Roon: "Let's go to Iron Maiden Poe."

Poe: "Sure; I want to see how much money that Ghostwolf got and see who wins."

There is a competition between him and Ghostwolf to see who have earn the most coins at the end of the Expo and the loser have to make an advertisements at their shop or make another shop to their store. When they a reach the Iron Maiden secondary shop; they both shock to see a large members of Iron Blood drunk on the floor including KMS Nijmegen and his sisters who are both drunk.

Poe(shock): "WHAT HAPPEN HERE!"

Ghostwolf arrive with Prinz Eugen on his back who is also drunk. Looks like someone have a party going on here and someone brought down the entire Iron Blood.

Poe: "Let me guess; you're out of beer already."

Ghostwolf: "We use about 100 barrels already so we're out."

Poe: "Yup; should have figure that out."

They decide to take their order outside of the balcony where they notice the Royal Navy girls talking about their situation while Queen isn't happy that Iron Blood is making a mess inside the building.

QE: "Can't believe those Iron Blood can't hold back. They're nothing but salvage and drunkards."

That cause Roon to get angry at the Queen, but I hold her since we don't want to cause problems and Ghostwolf hand me my favorite drink which is eggnog and my favorite food which is lasagna.

Ghostwolf: "Sorry for the trouble."

Poe didn't blame Ghostwolf for this since this is a special event that happens once a year, but Iron Blood need to slow down their drink, but that's easier say than done. Poe and Roon have their meal and continue exploring the Expo while it last before heading back home.

Time Skip
Pit and the Pendulum, San Diego

They manage to head home safely after their fun at the World Expo at Rome and decide to spend the rest of the day resting before opening up the shop again.

Poe: "That was fun."

Roon(happy): "As long I'm with you than it's more fun."

Roon was the only Iron Blood kansen that didn't have a hungover while everyone else have a massive headache from drinking to much beer while some are puking their systems out. We're going to see more of this in my next story.
