Chapter 39: Containment on three sides
When Jonathan heard this, he looked at Jessica fixedly and said, "You should also know that we have to stuff several warships a while ago, and they disappeared mysteriously." ”
"Hmm."
Jessica nodded, because the news had spread so much that people in the fortress had been terrified for a while, how could she not know.
"Really?"
Jessica's face changed suddenly.
"Yes, in the afternoon, we recovered the missing warship, but without exception, the soldiers on it were brutally killed."
"So, in order to stabilize the mood of the soldiers in the fortress, you didn't announce the news?"
Jessica, as Jonathan's girlfriend and the head chef inside the fortress, also realized this instantly.
"Hmm."
Jonathan cut a steak, threw it into his mouth, swallowed it, and said, "That's why I was going to hold a meeting at night to discuss how to deal with it, but I didn't expect that the lights in the entire fortress would suddenly break, so I am a little troubled now." ”
Saying that, Jonathan used a fork to pick up a large piece of steak and bite it hard, "Now~ after telling you, I'm in a much more relaxed mood." ”
Seeing this, Jessica got up and walked to Jonathan's side, and suddenly, she stretched out her hand and twisted his ears 180 degrees, and said with a smile: "Although it's a good thing that you're in a better mood, you can't just eat meat, hurry up and eat all these vegetables for me." ”
Boom~
At this moment, the door to the room suddenly opened, and a man wearing a white military coat, a military cap, and gray hair on both sides of his cheeks barged in, looked at Jonathan who was being twisted his ears, opened his mouth and stopped abruptly.
Seeing someone coming in, Jessica quickly let go of her hand and sat back in her place.
"Ahem~"
Jonathan rubbed his ears, looked at the man who was still about to speak, coughed lightly, and said with a serious expression on his face: "Major Drake, why did you break in so recklessly, what's the matter?" ”
"Oh oh~"
When Major Drake heard this, he remembered the purpose of his coming here, and said anxiously: "Commander Jonathan, such a fortress has been invaded, and the situation is very urgent, so I forgot to knock on the door and ask for forgiveness." ”
As he spoke, Drake bent down apologetically.
After all, seeing his boss in the sky, such an embarrassment made Drake very worried, whether he would be targeted by the long manager in the future in the fortress.
"Since it's an emergency, then I don't blame you However, why didn't the alarm bell ring?"
Jonathan is not a calculating person, and after hearing the reason for the incident, he did not blame Drake, but then remembered that the alarm did not go off, and couldn't help asking.
"This is what I want to report, the main reason."
Drake said, a grim look on his face, "I asked the soldier who found the intruder, and I learned that I combined a lot of information, and found that the individual should be a Devil Fruit ability, and it may be the one behind the failure of our plug circuit!" ”
"How?"
Hearing this, Jonathan suddenly stood up and looked at Drake tightly.
"That's right, I heard the soldier say that the man's hands can release thunder and lightning, and he even destroyed the back door of the fortress, broke in and happened to be in the fortress today, at first the electric light failed, and after he came in, the alarm bell also malfunctioned!"
"Well, according to what you say, nine times out of ten, he did it."
Jonathan also nodded, agreeing with his statement, and then said, "Then without further ado, let's go now and arrest him." ”
"The ......"
Jonathan, who was walking towards the door, suddenly, paused, turned his head and said.
"It's okay, it's a big deal, you go quickly, be careful."
But before he could finish speaking, Jessica interrupted him and told him.
Hearing this, Jonathan smiled heartily, and followed Drake out of the room.
"Bang Bang~"
At the same time, on a passage, the gunfire was endless, Cheng Jie walked in front, followed by a large number of navies behind, from time to time, the fork in the road would also encounter sieges, but he relied on the ability of the thunder fruit to maneuver with it, and also escaped most of the fortress.
When Cheng Jie passed a fork in the road, Weber and the others were on another fork in the road, and they happened to see Cheng Jie, who was being chased by many navies, and they couldn't help but widen their eyes, and hurriedly leaned against the wall to hide.
"What's the matter, I thought the intruder who was discovered was someone else, but why was it Cheng Jie!"
Shura looked at Cheng Jie, who was being chased and didn't look back, and said in surprise.
"That's right, our plan is to sneak in quietly, and then, after getting the things, we made a big fuss, but now we haven't even put the record pointer, and the location of the warehouse has not been found, how can it be discovered."
Ohm was also at a loss, this situation was not at all the same as what they discussed.
"Don't worry about it, this should be his strategy."
Webber quickly calmed down from the moment's surprise, and analyzed: "Look at the navy chasing him, he should be able to solve it easily, but instead of doing this, he was chased by them, probably to attract their attention, so that we can find the record pointer!" ”
Shura frowned when he heard this, and said with some puzzlement: "Then why not directly, this is not the most direct way to kill them?" ”
Ohm snorted, lightly tapped his sunglasses, and sneered: "You know, if you directly show a simple and brutal attack in this fortress, you may make them ask for support, then our ship that has not yet sailed will be dangerous, and there is no way to avoid it." ”
"Alright, let's go find the record pointer now."
As he spoke, Weber ran forward, followed by Shura and Ohm.
"He's a capable one, with a special cannonball!"
At this time, the many navies chasing Cheng Jie also discovered the identity of his ability, and after ordinary muskets could not hurt him, they prepared a fist-sized caliber to fire specially made shells to deal with those with ability.
"Bang~"
Behind Cheng Jie, several navies with special cannons quickly pointed their guns at him, and as soon as they aimed, they pulled the trigger.
"Huh~"
Several black special cannonballs shot out and quickly stretched out, forming a large black net full of knots, and quickly attacked Cheng Jie.
Cheng Jie's eyes flashed, and his powerful domineering appearance made him clearly feel the breath of the cannonball in the rear, and his body dodged flexibly.
"Stomp!"
Suddenly, Cheng Jie braked sharply and stopped in front of a wall at the 3-way crossing.
Because the two roads on the left and right were blocked by the navy, they had long been holding special Hailou stone net bombs, and they had been waiting for a long time, and there were also a bunch of pursuers in the rear.
At this moment, they saw that the infiltrator had stopped, and they all picked up the net cannon and took aim.
For a while, Cheng Jie was trapped in a dead end.
