Sephiroth held supreme control over the Clones the Crescent Moon Hunter had brought aboard the Rocky Port, while Lilith had secondary authorization.
These Clones regularly uploaded updated intelligence through the "artificial heaven" system. Lilith, who was keeping an eye on the Rocky Port, received the news immediately.
When she saw "Clay-Clay Fruit" in the report, Lilith knew who the other party was.
["Grus of the Blade Unit and four Navy Knights have been captured."]
Lilith's "voice" sounded in Sephiroth's mind.
["Knights were captured? Are they all right?"]
Sephiroth was a little surprised at first. He knew that after the Paramount War, the Navy's leadership had been forced to expand the Knights' deployment range. But he had not expected it to extend this far.
["They're fine for now. I'm monitoring all of them. It seems the Knights thought this was just an ordinary undercover operation to assist in rescuing hostages."]
Lilith reported the current situation to Sephiroth.
When members of the Blade Unit became part of Razor, they were simply "transferred." On the surface, then, they were no different from "ordinary Navy personnel."
Before meeting the Crescent Moon Hunter, the Knights involved probably had not expected things to get this exciting.
["...When things went wrong, they sent a distress signal, but Road Island intercepted it. They're currently listed as 'out of contact' in Babylon's communications system."]
Lilith briefly explained the changes in control aboard the Rocky Port and the final outcome.
Sephiroth had slightly mixed feelings after hearing this and sent a reply through Telepathy.
[Was only Grus captured? How has Kujaku reacted?]
Sephiroth had seen Kujaku just two days ago. Recently, she had only been operating in the "first half," and had even moved her base to Heaven's Gate Town. Sometimes she would go shopping with Hina.
