“Do you know just how many branches of the Capital Gang are in Flutwell? Do you know how many fighters are in each of those branches?“You understand nothing yet want to destroy the Capital Gang?“What a joke!“Keep on dreaming!”The beautiful women were laughing their stomachs off.They were enjoying the show too much! This was all too exciting!They did not think they would be able to see a clown performing right before their eyes!Ai Kamino pulled out a thin and long cigar before lighting it up.As long as Nelson Torres and the others did not take action, he would not be scared at all.Senior Miller’s phone suddenly rang. He froze up momentarily before putting the phone beside his ear.The moment he heard something from the other side, his facial expression instantly darkened.Ai had a bad feeling about the situation after seeing the sight.“What happened?” asked Ai instinctively.Bam!Senior Miller slammed his knees on the ground in disbelief.“This is bad, Mr. Kamin
Ai’s face lost all color as soon as he heard Harvey’s words.“Things won’t end this way, Harvey!” he exclaimed.“You’re no match for Prince Osborne, even if you’re this cunning!”“He’ll make sure you’re dead for good!”“I’ll be waiting for you behind bars!”Under the crowd’s shocked gaze, Ai was slapped in the face twice by one of the inspectors after he ran his mouth. He was kicked inside the trunk of the car soon after.…The day after Ai was thrown behind bars…Clyde was training in his garden as usual.When he was finally done, he sat under a balcony and waited for his servants to bring him breakfast.Clyde valued his mornings more than anything else.He believed successful people would never sleep in. People like that should train themselves early in the morning to keep their bodies strong and their minds sober.He would use the shortest amount of time to finish every single one of his tasks.The time that was left would be used to enjoy himself…When his servants brou
While Clyde was preparing a surprise for Harvey…At the Bauer family’s courtyard inside Flutwell.Elanor strutted into the Bauer family’s most well-known entertainment spot while scrolling through the documents on her phone.Jeff was training with a few wolfhounds, his defined muscles on his body clearly visible.The wolfhounds had been starving for days. They had fierce and ruthless expressions, as if they had completely forgotten who their master was. All they thought about was food to fill their stomachs.Jeff remained as steady as a rock even in front of the starving dogs; every punch he threw was enough to send the dogs flying.Jeff was in a playful state before he saw Elanor. He instantly grabbed one of the dogs with both hands and twisted its neck, drawing its final breath.After throwing the dead dog to the ground as food for the rest, Jeff took the warm water his servants brought and wiped his body with it.He then respectfully walked toward Elanor.“You’re early toda
Elanor took a deep breath.“According to my reports, Prince Osborne hasn’t done anything major yet. He’s probably shocked by what he heard.”“After all, Harvey is a tough nut to crack. He’s been dominant during his time in Flutwell recently.”Jeff chuckled lightly after hearing those words. An unspeakable aura of power could be felt on him.“Interesting. Very interesting!”“Someone dares to act this arrogant in front of me in this day and age?”“My two brothers are quite prominent figures as well. They have no choice but to behave themselves in front of me anyway.”“No matter how strong Harvey actually is, he’s still just a castaway from the Yorks of Hong Kong!”“What can he even do besides being a kept man?”“Run his mouth? Ha!”“Or does he think he’s impressive because he killed Cody?”“He’s just a mortal no matter how impressive he is at martial arts! He’s no match against planes and cannons!”Jeff’s face was frosty. “If I wanted it, I’d have an entire army against hi
“With Harvey, we’ll be able to stir up trouble behind the scenes.”“We’ll use the opportunity to deal with both Joseph and Ken in one go.”“This plan can only be beneficial to us.”Elanor told Jeff her thoughts. This was her plan to succeed after getting information about the situation.After all, she could only rise if Jeff does the same.Her wealth and glory was attached to Jeff.“You’re right.”Jeff nodded.“That said, am I just going to humiliate myself in front of him?” “Am I compromising for a mere outsider?”“If word spreads about this, I’ll be utterly humiliated!”For Jeff, his pride was more important than anything else.He had never bowed down to anyone his entire life. Yet, he was about to do that to an outsider?This was unforgivable!“I know what you’re thinking, Young Master,” Elanor said.“This is a bit embarrassing for you, yes. Your image will be affected if anyone else knows about this.”“But if we look at the bigger picture, working together with Ha
“Alright, enough of this talk. Let’s have some breakfast.”Jeff smiled.“Another thing. While you were coming here, I already sent someone to grab Mandy.”“Harvey’s pretty impressive, right?’“If he finds out where we took his wife and saves her…”“Then I’ll acknowledge his strength!”“If he doesn’t manage to get his wife tomorrow this time…”“I’ll sell her to the Dark Island!”“The chiefs there love tender-looking women like her the most!”Jeff revealed his dominance.“I’d like to see how Harvey will react!”Elanor’s eyes twitched.“You’ll get Harvey furious if you do!”“There’ll be no going back if things go south!”“Didn’t you say he was impressive?”Jeff chuckled coldly.“You wanted him to stand by me and be my ally, right?”“Well, now I’m giving him a chance to show off!”“I’d like to see how he’ll fight back!”“If he can’t scare me, then what right does he have to go against Joseph?”“What right does he have to be my weapon?”“He wouldn’t be worthy!”“Even i
“Maybe, what?” Harvey asked, frowning.“Maybe it was someone from Longmen with a powerful status.”“Judging from the scene, the disciples didn’t even unsheathe their swords yet.”“If it weren’t someone like that suppressing them, this wouldn’t even happen.”Harvey let out a sigh of relief.“Who would have this much power to frighten people from the Law Enforcement?”“There are a few.”“The master of Longmen’s personal bodyguards.”“The three young masters of the Bauer family.”“The people from the Elder Group.”Rachel had a horrible expression.“It’s not that the Law Enforcement can’t deal with them! A lot of the disciples are from Flutwell!”“They wouldn’t dare go against them!”Harvey’s gaze turned cold.“We had a conflict with the Elder Group before, but we’ve never met since then.”“The same goes with the Seventh Young Master.”“Joseph suffered a big loss because of me. He has no time to deal with his problems right now. Why would he come for me?”“The only person
In the evening, A Toyota Prado charged right at the Charity Garden where the event would be held.There was no proof, but judging from the clues and aspects of various conditions, Harvey was sure that Jeff had Mandy hostage.If this was any other time, he would’ve calculated the risks and gathered evidence before taking action.However, he couldn’t wait any longer since his wife was involved.According to his intel, Jeff was a stubborn man who would do as he pleased.Compared to the self-proclaimed strategist, Joseph, who was quite methodical in his actions…Not only was Jeff harder to deal with, but his way of doing things was even more insane.Harvey had no confidence in guaranteeing Mandy would come out of the situation unscathed.He drove the car at lightning speed, charging past red lights and going through shortcuts just to get to the Charity Garden as soon as he could.At the same time, he gave George a call so the latter would hack into the place and send the schematic
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
Harvey looked at Daichi coldly. "I don't think there's anything between you and me that we need to talk about."However, Daichi said passionately, "But I believe we do. This is not a place for us to speak of such things, though. I have prepared a table for us at the best restaurant serving Island Nation cuisine in Grand City. I invite you to dine with us. How does that sound?"Not only can we talk about what's happening at the Island Nation, Sky Plane's scenery, the Seven Families of Grand City…as well as what's currently going on with Ms. Mandy of the Jeans of Mordu!"Clack!Harvey immediately grabbed Daichi by the throat. "I dare you to say it one more time. Are you threatening me?"Daichi smiled faintly. "Threaten? You must be joking! Someone like me doesn't threaten anyone. However, Sky Plane does have a deal with the Jeans of Mordu. They will be sending out a representative, who turns out to be Ms. Mandy."However, Ms. Mandy doesn't know much about the situation in Sky Plane
Hearing the conversation between Harvey and Clarion, Hale wasn't sure what to say. He let out a long sigh and said, "Thank you, Mr. Harvey, Mr. Clarion. I won't waste my breath, then. Since you're willing to protect a cripple like me, I'll be in your care from now on."He took out a paper and pen from the bedside table and quickly drew a picture, then put it in front of him. "Mr. Harvey, this is the real location of the Chapter of Ascension. I know you're sincere in helping me. I can't repay you, so I can only offer you this. Please don't refuse it. This thing will only get me killed if I have it with me."However, if it's with you, you should be able to put it to good use. Consider it my goodwill. I… I hope you can accept this and give me a chance to repay your kindness."Hale then made a gesture and swore, "I swear, this is the real location where the Chapter of Ascension is hidden. This is not a death trap. Please trust me. Other than the Chapter of Ascension, there's also some
It was obvious that Hale's anger and sorrow had pushed him to the limit. He was already blaming Sky Plane for everything. Sky Plane had just earned him as a mortal enemy."My condolences, Hale." Harvey extended his hand and tapped Hale's shoulder. "The dead can't be brought back, so the most important thing now is to recover. Sky Plane is a difficult enemy."Clarion nodded as well. "Now that Susan is dead, Sky Plane will not let this slide. However, we'll need to get you a new identity after you recover. Only when you're safe and when you can live for yourself will you have the chance to have your revenge."I've just received news that everyone in Grand City knows who you are. All the other Sacred Lands will find out very quickly. In a short while, there will be countless people looking for you, for us. That's why you need to get ready. We're running out of time."When Clarion said that, the frigid light in his eyes glinted. He didn't need to send anyone to find out what was go
"No matter what happened, she treated me well all these years. Even if I were to kill her, I want her to die with some dignity. As for the trouble from Sky Plan and her… I'll give you an explanation you'll be happy with. Please permit me," Hale said, not caring for the wounds on his body even when he was kneeling on the floor.Clarion looked stern. If he were to bring in a spy like Susan, it would help him immensely in his career. If they got her into the interrogation room and asked her proper questions, they could get valuable answers from her. That was the only value she had left.However, Clarion also knew why Hale framed it that way. She was still his wife, even when she had already betrayed him. Rather than letting someone like Clarion take her away right now and live a torturous life that she wouldn't be able to tell day by night, he'd prefer to kill her right now. That way, Susan would be able to die peacefully.But how should he choose? Clarion was having a headache rig
Hale's expression was one of shock.Susan was the same.Hale didn't expect Sky Plane's plan to be so vicious. They wanted the Chapter of Ascension and to use the chance to plunge Grand City into chaos.Susan was shocked about how accurate Harvey's guesswork was. If it wasn't because she knew that someone like him would never have a connection with Sky Plane, she would even think that he might have a hand in setting up the trap that looked like it was simply a string of coincidences.Otherwise, how would he have known everything in such detail?Clarion looked at Harvey with more admiration. While he looked like just an ordinary man, whether his power or perception was far beyond them.Hale slowly closed his eyes, forcing himself to calm down for a long time.Then, he turned and looked at Susan and muttered, "Now that we have reached this juncture, I don't think that there should be any more secrets between you and I. Just one question. Did everything happen exactly as Mr. Harvey
"Or maybe, in your subconscious, you do realize that something isn't right. Maybe you simply feel that it's better for her not to know about some things. That way, things will be safer for her," Harvey said with a shrug. "However, the truth is that she didn't get anything from you at all until yesterday, isn't it?"Hale nodded. "You're right. I did have some doubts about her in my mind, that's why I did tell her everything except the Chapter of Ascension."Hale seemed to reminisce about something else before giving a painful smile. "And then, as time passed by, I no longer suspected her. But I'm worried that it'll get her killed, so I chose not to say anything. I believed that as long as I said nothing, we'll be able to live a peaceful life! No one expects that in the end…"Hale signed, looking hopeless when he said that.However, Susan simply smiled icily. "Stop your crocodile tears, Hale. You never trusted me, so stop saying that you love me!"Hale smiled bitterly. He didn't w
Clarion was stunned when he saw Mrs. Hoffman was still trying to argue her way out."Even the way you argue is the same as the Origin Ninjas. Seriously?" Harvey smirked. "Right, I heard that the Origin Ninjas would leave the mark of a petal on the most private spot so that it was easier for them to identify each other. You must have seen it, right, Mr. Hoffman? Of course, I believe she'd definitely say it was just a tattoo that she had while she was in her youth."Unfortunately, I believe that Grand City has plenty of records. It should be quite easy for us to find the evidence we need. That's why, Mrs. Hoffman… Is there really a need to deny it anymore now that we've reached this point?"Mrs. Hoffman shuddered a little. She didn't expect that Harvey would be able to easily see through all her disguise. Most importantly, he even knew about the most damning evidence on her. In a situation like this, continuing with the argument really was pointless."You… You…!"At the same tim
Harvey said calmly, "You smell like one of them."Whoosh!Before Harvey could finish, Mrs. Hoffman immediately pounced at him. In midair, she waved her hand and threw a string of knives.All her blades were blue in color. They looked very pretty, but if they scratched one's skin, one could easily lose their lives if they weren't sent to the hospital immediately.Clarion was shocked when he saw what was unfolding. It was obvious he didn't expect Harvey's words to help them identify Mrs. Hoffman's real identity and forced her to attack.Still, that was quite normal. Thinking back about it, Mrs. Hoffman's calmness during this whole ordeal showed that she was not a normal woman.The power she suddenly showed was within their expectation, and they could understand it too.However, this exact revelation was making things more painful for Hale. It hurt him even more than finding out that his beloved wife sold him out. Clank! Clank! Clank!Harvey pulled up a small fruit knife and thr
