Once you're done feasting you put up your Jolly Roger on the island to signal to anyone who'd dare to mess with it and then you take your leave. After letting Greki catch up and explaining to Shelley that things will get a bit dangerous now you go to bed to get as much sleep as you can before arrival but not before pointing the others in the direction you know Clown went. Sleep however does not bring you the much needed rest. Only bad dreams of a distant place. In a well lit room people dressed in all white, with a man wearing a marine uniform standing next to them argue among each other.
"So retrieval of agent Saturn was successful. Your work is as exemplary as ever Soir Bleu. We've all but written him off."
"In my defense the intel we received was faulty. If I knew the full extent of the Irukas security I would've chosen a different method of assassinating the target."
"We are not interested in excuses agent Saturn. Only results. You will be disciplined thoroughly for your failings. But for now we have more pressing matters to attend. As such you'll be temporarily moved under agent Soir Bleu. You will do as she says for the duration of the mission. Now, Soir Bleu."
"Right away. The current situation is thus. I have in my possession a document detailing every single one of Outer Heavens defenses. It took longer than expected due to the chaotic layout of the fort but I managed to calculate and write down the exact number of armaments they have, what their range are, the range of their movement as well as the structural weakpoints of the fort, both originally present and the ones I've set up. It won't be easy but I believe a talented captain could navigate around all the blindspots and get close enough to disable most of the defenses. After which Marine forces could easily dismantle the sea fort. It is vital we deliver this information to HQ so that the place is destroyed immediately. But we have a problem."
"The pirates themselves."
"It'd be best to just ignore those pests and fulfill our objectives."
"No Saturn. Outer Heaven is not the problem. Silver is. His removal is imperative both to please the gods and to ensure he won't construct it again. I heard rumors that he personally designed the place, or at least partially. If so that would explain the troubling details I saw. Contrary to its appearance the fort is quite sophisticated on the inside. It's not just a hodge podge of ships but a fully realized fort whose central structure would put this or any other G Fort to shame."
"So what do you suggest Soir Bleu?"
"Knowing him I am his target now. I shall play the role of bait. And he will come to us. Our sneak attack injured him gravely. We must capitalize on that opportunity and eliminate him while he's weakened-"
"YOU WANT TO USE MY FORT FOR YOUR TRAP? I won't have it-"
"You don't have a choice. We already requisitioned the place. Now here are the dossiers of the Silvers including all their weaknesses."
