The Cidre Guild is a bounty hunting organization led by Cidre.[1]
Overview
The Cidre Guild's main members consists of its leader and his officers. The lower-ranked members are actually citizens who were forced to work for the organization and create weapons for them. Their main objective is to eliminate any and all pirates they would encounter, regardless of if they are affiliated with the World Government or not.
The Cidre Guild uses equipment and weaponry powered by carbonated water; their base is located on an island with large amounts of naturally carbonated water to facilitate this.
The lower-ranked members of the organization are split into three groups, led by Cidre, Ginger, and Guarana respectively:[1]
- Carbonate Assault Army (炭酸
攻 擊 軍団, Tansan kō geki gundan?, Funimation: "Carbonate Assault") - Carbonic Acid Fire Unit (炭酸銃劇団
突 擊 隊 , Tansan jū gekidan to tsuge kitai?, Funimation: "Carbonate Firearms Squad") - Carbonated Sword Unit (炭酸剣戟団斬込, Tansan kengeki-dan kirikomi?, Funimation: "Carbonate Sword Squad")
The exact differences between these groups are unclear, as there are no visible differences in the subordinates commanded by Ginger and Guarana.

History
Past
Many years ago, Cidre's hometown was attacked and destroyed by the ruthless Douglas Bullet. In response, Cidre swore vengeance on all pirates and began hunting them, eventually founding the Cidre Guild and recruiting like-minded allies in Ginger and Guarana.
At some point, the Cidre Guild traveled on an unknown island in the New World that was abundant in natural carbonated water. There, they took residents hostage and enslaved the island's men, developing technology to weaponize the carbonated water and forcing their newfound slaves to mass produce and use the technology.
Cidre Guild Arc
The Cidre Guild ambushed the Thousand Sunny out at sea and dealt significant damage to the ship, forcing the Straw Hats to escape with Coup de Burst. After the Straw Hats arrived at the Cidre Guild's island, Ginger and his group ambushed Luffy while he was exploring the island, causing Luffy to fall into a stream. Ginger's squad later fought Luffy and Boa Hancock at a bathhouse. When Ginger's men were defeated, Ginger forced Luffy and Hancock to retreat by releasing some dangerous gas. After Luffy and Hancock arrived at the cola factory, Cidre confronted the two.[1] Meanwhile, some soldiers of the Cidre Guild attacked the Sunny again, but were easily bested by Zoro and Sanji, so they surrendered and confessed to have been forced by the guild's leaders to fight for them.
Luffy and Hancock fought off Cidre and Guarana respectively until Ginger and the other Gorgon Sisters appeared. Cidre retreated into the factory for his special rig and his officers provided cover for him. Luffy chased Cidre into the building and found several members of the guild who were also enslaved by Cidre by taking their families hostage. Cidre then appeared and fought Luffy in the special rig he developed to fight Bullet, but the pirate easily defeated him, while Hancock dispatched Ginger and Guarana by turning them into stone.
After the fight, the soldiers and their families were freed from their captors, and repaid the Straw Hats by giving them large amounts of cola for free.[2]
