Harvey York calmly stepped forward before slapping Vince York in the face.Slap!Vince, who was still being extremely arrogant then, was not able to come back to his senses.“You have no chance.”Harvey looked indifferent.“The foundation of the Yorks of Hong Kong is to protect the country’s borders!“You don’t even understand such simple logic, yet you still try to climb the ranks?“I’ll tell you exactly why I can stop you today!Harvey took another step forward and swung the back of his palm.Slap!“This one’s for you disrespecting your elders and the damn law!“You think you can be the young lord without your elders’ approval?! Keep dreaming!Slap!“This one’s for you having such rancid core values!“The Islanders want us dead, yet you’re here treating them like your masters?! What are you thinking?!Slap!“This one’s for you disrespecting the dead and the history at large!“Do you know how hard it was for the country to rise?!“The Islanders tried killing off all
The old man was considered to be quite the experienced fighter. When Harvey York moved, he instinctively took a step back after gaining his footing.Even though he was fast, Harvey was way faster.In the blink of an eye, Harvey appeared before the old man and swung his palm forward.The old man gritted his teeth while placing both hands in front of his chest, trying to block Harvey’s attack.But Harvey’s palm had already landed on his face.Slap!The old man was immediately sent flying with the sound of a resounding slap. Blood was seeping out from the corner of his mouth as he landed on the ground again.A complete loss!A peak King of Arms lost his battle in an instant!Harvey calmly walked past the old man before moving toward Vince York once again as he stumbled off the ground.“You touched me?!“How dare you?!“How dare you touch me?!“You’re completely barbaric!After returning to his senses, Vince’s expression was filled with utter resentment.“You touched me even
“I worked so hard to merge both the head and second house’s forces after so many years!“I already shared my interests with the Islanders to gain their support since the beginning!“With all of these forces combined…“Do you still think you have a chance against me?!“With my power, it would be effortless for me to build a family of my own or force you out of your position!“But, I respect you as the lord of the family! That’s why I’m willing to stay as the young lord until you let me take your place!“Not only are you shameless enough to rob me of my status because of some outsider…“You wouldn’t even let me climb the ranks?!“If that’s the case, let’s just lay everything out here then!“Either you resign and hand me your position…“Or we fight until the bitter end! We’ll see if I’m well-prepared or if you have more tricks up your sleeve than I do!“But trust me, I won’t regret it even if I’m completely spent!“But if your people die…“We’ll see how you’ll defend the damn
Cory York and the others merely chuckled coldly without saying a single word.“Don’t say it like that, Fourth Uncle!” exclaimed Vince York.“We’re only forced to revolt because of you!“From now on, your time has passed!”“You’re forced to revolt, you say?”Before Harvey York could even say anything, Marcel York looked at Vince before letting out a huge sigh.“I’ve been extremely discreet when I do business for many years. Do you really think that I’m that easy to be taken advantage of when I’ve been talked down on by Grandma York and the houses of the damn family?!“Do you think I’ve given up on the Yorks of Hong Kong and have no bite after losing my son?!“Do you really think I don’t know about all those heinous things you’ve been doing behind the scenes?!“Do you actually think I lost control of you?“I stayed back and watched you make mistakes because I hoped you’d come to your senses and grow from them so you can become a true successor of the family!“But the truth tol
“Hahahaha!“Hahahaha!”Vince York burst out laughing after seeing the armed helicopters descending from the skies.“I underestimated you, Fourth Uncle!“I didn’t think that you were ready for my coup!“Impressive!“Really impressive!“But, are you really going to do this?!“The family might just collapse if we play this out!“You worked so hard for the family for so long! Are you really prepared to destroy the family because of our infighting?!”A cold gaze was showing on Vince’s face.Marcel York frowned and looked at the people in front before he shifted his gaze toward the people standing with him.He felt that he could be triumphant…But even if he did, his losses would be massive.Clearly, this was the reason why Vince was this courageous. He knew that Marcel would not dare to lash out.“That’s why! I have a proposition! One that will keep the family safe and sound!”Vince walked forward and waved his hand. Then, a chair was set right behind him.He sat on the cha
Vince York burst out laughing after hearing Lexie York’s words.“She’s right.“Auntie has a point!“I’m not forcing you to play with me, Harvey York. But if you do just that, I’ll let you go myself.“I’m being pretty generous here!“I was about to rip you to shreds because of our past grievances!“But I’m fine with giving you a chance.Vince lightly chuckled.“Of course, you can reject both of my suggestions.“If you do, I’ll just let these Islanders do whatever they please.“I think they’re all dying to cut you down!”Vince then made a gesture before the Islanders glared coldly at Harvey.Their gazes were filled with resentment and hatred toward their sworn enemy.Naturally, after their Sword Saint was murdered and their base of the Shindan Way was raided, the Island Nations’ martial arts world was completely humiliated.Those people would not hesitate and cut Harvey down if they saw the opportunity.Not too far from Harvey, one of the Shinkage Way’s disciples and a mem
“Right. Harvey York, I’ll open the borders and fully collaborate with the Islanders when I rise to power.“You despise me, don’t you?“You said I have no right to rise for being too close to them, right?“Come on then! Come at me!”Then, Vince York deliberately sat on the lord’s seat.Even Marcel York was completely ignored at this point.At this moment, Vince felt utterly prideful.“You’re probably too scared for that, though!”Vince coldly scoffed before he made a gesture.“Kill him! I’m in the middle of something big here!”A few Islanders in front stepped forward while unsheathing their swords.Obviously, they were ready to deal with Vince’s biggest threat first before anything else.“Vince.”Then, Harvey finally spoke up.“Didn’t you say that you were going to play with me?“I’ll play with you if you want!“But, do you dare to play with me yourself?“Aren’t you a God of War?“I slapped you in the face! Where’s your courage to fight for your dignity?”Vince’s fac
‘He got slapped away?!’‘The don of Briewood Gang himself?!’‘A prominent figure of Hong Kong and Las Vegas’ underworld?!’‘Grayson Parker’s a legend! How could he get himself beaten just like that?!’Judging from the current situation, Grayson must have been completely crippled from all those injuries if he was not dead already.The entire banquet hall was dead silent, so much so that even the sound of a pin drop could be heard.Even Vince York and Lexie York, who were showing prideful looks on their faces, had their pupils shrunk at that moment.He crippled Grayson with just a single slap in front of everyone?!The Islanders threatening to kill Harvey were frantically twitching their eyes.“How is this possible?!”The wealthy ladies could not help but widen their beautiful eyes in disbelief.Grayson’s status was just too immense!In their eyes, people like him were practically invincible!Even if Harvey’s name became quite well-known recently, surely he could not rival G
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
"The joy's of youth," said Isoroku with a sigh of admiration. "To be young means to be fearless. It also means that there is no respect, and there is ignorance just how difficult it is for something to be overcome. When I'm in a good and chatty mood, you're attempting to anger me. You think that it's your power that makes me pause when I'm the one who's bestowing you this opportunity. You're simply too naive."Harvey calmly replied, "So you want to use your age to force me to respect you. Don't you understand that it's always out with the old and in with the new? If you don't, you'll really get thrown out one day."While the two of them were calmly exchanging words, the truth was from the moment they met each other, they were already clashing against each other. "Looks like there's nothing more to say."Isoroku sighed and slowly pointed the edge of his blade at Harvey. "I will now kill everyone close to you first before slicing your limbs. I'll make you die as you scream in pain."
Harvey was already making quite a concession. When he left with Sora, he was already prepared to kill him once he had arrived at his destination. But since Isoroku came knocking, he did not mind giving Sora up since he was not that important anyway."You're so confident, Harvey. So full of vigor. However, you forgot that in this condition, you're not in a place to negotiate," said Isoroku coldly. "Even if someone's going to come up with the conditions, that person will be me."Let's see now… Release that disappointing son of mine, and then leave your woman behind. Then, you will personally maim the limbs of your own men and then yourself. Only then will I allow you to leave on your knees. How does that sound?" It was clear Isoroku thought little of Harvey in the end."I'm not in the business of making life difficult for unimportant people like you. But since the Origin Sword Style has lost so many people, I need to get something back for them as their Predecessor, correct?"Then, H
"I've already heard your name even before you step foot in Grand City. That's because the Six Schools are all connected to the Origin Sword Style. By defeating all Six Schools alone, you have disrespected me," explained Isoroku, as if he was in the mood for a chat."What's more, you even killed my beloved student Sverker and even took down my worthless son? If it isn't because my source is very well trusted, I couldn't even believe it. For you to reach this level of power at this age, it's beyond amazing. Perhaps it's true when they say that the youths should never be underestimated!" Isoroku said with a sigh of admiration.Dozens of elites stepped out from the other military helicopters. They were probably Isoroku's personal students. All of them looked at Harvey with suspicion and shock. All of them knew how powerful Sverker was, that was why they found it even harder to believe that Harvey could defeat Sverker.Even if they put Sverker's defeat on one side, Sora was accompanied b
The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
