"If there are no more warships heading to the city today, I might as well just teleport there.
Although the chances of being discovered will increase..."
In the early morning, in Marineford, which was gradually becoming bustling, in a breakfast shop on the residential street, Ronan secretly decided.
After dinner last night, Ronan had nowhere to go, so he simply used his Observation Haki to scan the officers' area and found a single brigadier general who was on a mission to stay overnight.
Who would have thought?
In the place where the world's naval elites gather, the naval headquarters of Marineford, a pirate with a bounty of over a billion actually lives here openly.
It was dark under the flashlight.
Ronan savored his breakfast.
But soon, according to his Observation Haki, two powerful auras appeared near him, and one of them was even approaching quickly.
What's going on?
Have you been discovered?
Ronan's face was expressionless as he quietly ate wontons. At least on the surface, he looked like a tall and handsome passerby.
Today, in order to avoid being greeted by the soldiers one after another, he did not wear the navy cloak and changed his clothes.
Even though he went out in such a high profile yesterday, his identity was not suspected.
I was so low-key today, but I was discovered immediately?
Ronan was a little confused and calmly finished the last bite of wonton. At the same time, a strange red light burst out from his eyes.
I see.
"Excuse me, sir, may I see the knife on you?"
A voice sounded behind Ronan, and he slowly turned his head.
The person who spoke was a woman with long black hair. Of course, the first thing that caught Ronan's attention was her pair of long white legs exposed outside.
There is a black spider tattoo on the left thigh, which adds a sense of contrast and wild beauty.
Judging from her appearance alone, based on Ronan's several months of experience in the red light district, her level is at least as good as those top girls under Sammy.
Adding the navy cloak on the back adds a few more points.
Evil pirates versus righteous beautiful marines?
Ronan's thoughts were a little off. The next time he saw Sammy, he could suggest her to start this new project.
You will definitely make a lot of money!
As long as you are not afraid of being found by the navy...
But seriously, he actually knew the female naval commander in front of him.
Commodore Gion.
Ronan looked at the proud figure with admiration, and then turned his gaze to the figure behind him...
Then he looked away indifferently.
"Hey!!! You bastard, your look of disdain is too obvious!!!"
Kake was obviously very angry at this look.
In addition, even with sunglasses on, this guy still looked super handsome, which made him feel a sense of crisis, so he roared with his fangs bared.
"Kake!!!"
Gion shouted in dissatisfaction, and the latter immediately became obedient.
Then she turned her attention to Ronan again.
"Excuse me, sir, and pardon my companion's rudeness; I only wish to see the knife that is upon you."
"This one?"
Seeing that they didn't seem to recognize him, Ronan breathed a sigh of relief and secretly sighed that a simple change of clothes could make them unrecognizable, which really worked everywhere.
In fact, it is not Gion and Kake's fault for being face-blind. It is because Ronan has rarely appeared in public since he was photographed on a wanted poster when he was fighting in Roger's group.
In the later period of the voyage, during the few major battles between Roger's pirate group and the navy, Ronan was the one who shot them in the back.
He used the sword only a few times, so he was not particularly noticed. However, he is still a great swordsman today.
Over the past few years, Ronan's height has grown rapidly, and his temperament has also changed a lot compared to before.
If he wasn't wearing that black military uniform and carrying that iconic black gun, who would associate a man over two meters tall with the child who was once over one meter tall?
Yes,
In order to keep a low profile when traveling, Ronan also brought clothes and sunglasses with him.
He didn't even bring the black gun that Master Petermoo gave him as a symbol of his status. He only brought a long knife and some berries.
On the sea, you can recognize many people in military uniforms, carrying black swords and black guns.
But there are almost no people who can recognize the man in the windbreaker, with a knife on his waist and sunglasses.
Seeing that the two of them couldn't recognize him at all, Ronan felt that changing clothes last night was not in vain.
What he was betting on was that there were so many people in Marineford, and it was impossible for these officers to know every one of them.
The fact is just as he expected.
"I found this by chance. Do you recognize this knife?"
Ronan asked, and under Kake's vigilant eyes, he generously handed the knife to her. Anyway, he was confident that he could get it back immediately.
"Yes!" Gion didn't notice Kake's unusual behavior. After taking the sword, he observed it carefully. "Yes, it is indeed the Great Blade Twenty-first Work, Crow Shadow!!!"
"This sword was once the sword of a Commodore of the Marine Headquarters. However, after encountering the Roger Pirates in the New World, the Commodore and this sword disappeared together. I didn't expect to see it here!"
"Where did you get it?" Gion asked seriously.
Fortunately, like most people, Gion subconsciously believed that no pirate would dare to appear in Marineford so brazenly, so he did not doubt Ronan's identity.
Forehead...
Ronan scratched his head. He couldn't say that the Commodore was killed by him with one sword, so the sword was directly requisitioned by him.
"I bought this from a merchant I met by chance."
This is a lie.
"Is that so..." But obviously, Gion accepted this statement. After so many years have passed, it is possible that it has spread to anywhere.
After hesitating for a moment, he pursed his lips and asked the man in front of him,
"I have an unwelcome request!"
Gion suddenly stepped forward, grabbed Ronan's hand, and spoke confidently, pressing his whole body against him, appearing extremely sincere, his big eyes staring at the sunglasses on Ronan's face.
"I also hope to buy the long sword in your hand. After all, it is the sword of a hero who sacrificed his life for justice!"
She tried to influence the other party with love and morality. After all, he was a resident of Marineford. You can definitely understand that.
"Don't do that, Gion, it's too close!" Kake was so angry when he saw this scene that he almost gritted his teeth, but he could only be anxious and persuade him.
hateful!!!
If he was not a naval commander and military discipline did not require him to attack ordinary residents of Marineford, he would have definitely pulled the boy away.
Damn! I'm so jealous!!!
As for the protagonist Ronan, there was no emotion in his eyes at this moment.
Regarding the approach of Gion's delicate body, the two white masses vaguely emerging on her chest did not show any reaction at all.
He didn't even blink behind his sunglasses.
Are you kidding me? You want to buy my trophy sword with just a few words?
Do I look like an idiot to you?
Ronan, who has already enjoyed the gentle land, is still highly immune to beautiful women even though he is in adolescence now.
They are all trained one by one.
"I'm sorry, this is my personal collection. I don't think you in the navy would force me to buy it, right?"
"...That's definitely not the case, but..."
"Not for sale."
