The warship soon arrived at the fortress. There was a checkpoint at the port. In order to prevent outsiders from sneaking in, all personnel had to go through the inspection. However, this kind of inspection was very simple for Ronan. Ronan just casually flashed his officer's ID and talked to the soldier in charge of guarding the gate before being allowed to go.
Although this kind of inspection seemed very simple, it was not the case. First of all, before being inspected, everyone had to go through a stone passage to prevent anyone from using the fruit ability to sneak into the fortress.
Secondly, the soldiers in charge of the inspection were basically people with outstanding memories. Although they could not remember the appearance of every navy soldier, they could easily tell if the face was from the fortress.
Very few people could escape these two inspections, and it was basically impossible for those who barely managed to get through to cause trouble in the fortress that had 10,000 people stationed.
However, this loophole was convenient for Ronan. Who would have thought that someone would use this loophole to steal something instead of destroying the fortress?
After
entering the fortress, Ronan scanned the surrounding scenery and chose a direction to follow.
What, you want to ask where did he get the map? It was actually very simple. Ronan only needed to remember the contents of the daily conversations of the soldiers and then infer the general direction of the buildings in the fortress. After concluding, it was not difficult for him to find the location of the storage warehouse.
They didn't have to run around blindly like headless flies, which greatly reduced the possibility of being exposed.
Therefore, there were no accidents along the way. In addition, the patrolling soldiers walked away when they saw Ronan's face from afar. Just like that, Ronan hummed a navy song as he walked unsteadily to his office.
After walking for about ten minutes, Ronan found his destination far away. It was a very sturdy building.
Walking up to him, Ronan looked at the brightly lit office and listened to the soft voices coming from inside the room. His eyes narrowed. Someone was looking for a warehouse supervisor at this late hour. Could something have happened?
His brain spun quickly, and he thought of several possibilities in an instant, but he was not sure. He had to enter the office to confirm the specifics.
However, I don't panic, I don't tidy up, I don't bother.
With a creak, Ronan finally stepped into his office. What he saw was two slightly impatient faces under the yellow light. One was familiar, while the other was unfamiliar.
As if he had just seen him, Ronan greeted him in a panic."So it's Colonel Norton. I wonder if you and this..." As he spoke, Ronan quickly glanced at the other person's military rank."Is there anything the young captain wants from me at this late hour?”
His current military rank was a major in the headquarters, so he still had to show some respect to Colonel Norton on the surface. However, in reality, the owner of this identity had never looked down on the branch officer, so Ronan's tone was not very good, mixed with impatience.
"So late!???" Hearing Ronan's words and his slightly strange tone, Norton's tone instantly rose by an octave."We've been waiting here since the afternoon, and now you're telling me…"
"I remember that I've already asked for leave from the base commander, so please don't accuse me of neglecting my duties," Ronan interrupted Norton without mercy.
However, the more he did this, the more it suited the personality of the owner of this identity. In the bar, Ronan had often heard someone brag about how he had fought with some colonels in the base, but the other party had been helpless against him.
In someone's words, my future is in the headquarters. As long as I follow the rules, so what if I offend more branch officers? Could it be that you can go to the headquarters and report me for quarreling with a colleague?
Therefore, Ronan did not panic at all when facing Colonel Norton.
"Phew... Phew..." However, to Ronan's surprise, Norton, as a colonel, was the first to hold back his anger.
I don't have time to argue about whether you're on leave or not. I'm here on the orders of the base chief to take out the number three hundred two ten one.”
"Item 321?”Ronan was stunned for a moment, then he began to rummage through the pile of documents at the side.
"Alright, alright. I don't know what kind of warehouse manager you are. Item 321 is the superhuman demon fruit, Rust Fruit.”Norton was even more impatient, but the words he said shocked Ronan. Could it be that the situation had changed?
"Rust Fruit? I remember that all the use of the demon fruit requires the approval of the headquarters. I'm afraid I can't help you take it out just by the order of the base commander.”
Norton was too lazy to waste his breath. Without saying anything, he took out a document and threw it to Ronan.
After checking the document, Ronan's heart sank to the bottom of the valley. Due to Captain Huen's outstanding performance and high potential, he was selected to enter the naval academy for further studies. At the same time, he was rewarded with a demon fruit, which could be obtained from the local naval branch.
As for the authenticity of the document, although Ronan didn't understand the secret marks of the navy, he could be very sure that the document was real just from the name of Huen. After all, the original owner of the Rust Fruit had appeared here.
Ronan looked at the document in silence for a long time.
"Alright, I understand. Follow me.”With a dark expression, Ronan led the way to the entrance of the warehouse. This sudden change had disrupted many of his arrangements. Originally, he had planned to gather his warehouse guards and knock them unconscious before quietly taking the Rust Fruit away. He had even prepared knockout powder for this.
However, the plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The sudden order from the headquarters made Ronan's plan go bankrupt. Seeing that the Rust Fruit was about to fly away, the ferocity in Ronan's heart was finally triggered.
"Originally, I did not want to make a move. However, since I wanted to secretly steal it from you and you did not allow it, then do not blame me for killing you…" Ronan's eyes flashed fiercely. Since that was the case, he would go all out. He would kill the warehouse guard and these two guys, and he could also escape with the Rust Fruit.
