“Hurry! We need a blood transfusion!”“We need to wake him up!”“This is bad! His heart stopped! We need to do manual resuscitation!”The sounds of medical staff constantly echoed. The atmosphere of the entire main hall tensed up immediately.Inspectors stepped out of the ambulance, ready to clear out the place.“B*stard! Goddamnit!”Soren Braff completely lost his cool when he kept screaming, as if to vent his resentment and rage.“What’s going on, Director Braff?“What happened here?Harvey York walked up to Soren with a confused look.“How did this happen to Watson…?”“Harvey? Master York?Soren was just about to tell someone to chase Harvey off when he saw his face. His entire body trembled before showing a hopeful look on his face.“Save my brother, Master York! You’re definitely able to! Please!”Harvey frowned.“At least tell me what actually happened! I can’t do anything if you don’t!”Soren gritted his teeth with a twisted expression before heaving a huge sigh.
The first aid tent was opened as the alarms went off.A doctor with a dozen medical staff walked out with their hands in front.Their faces were covered with face masks and goggles when they lightly bowed.“I’m sorry, Director Braff. We did our very best.“You need to prepare yourself.”The doctor did not know what to feel at that moment.She knew who Soren Braff was. That was why she knew that she would have the chance to be in the Braff family’s good graces. Her reputation would definitely skyrocket after that as well.The hospital would even compliment her and give her a promotion.But since she had no means of saving Watson, these things would naturally have nothing to do with her.“No! My brother’s not dead! He can’t die! He can’t!Soren gritted his teeth.“You need to go back in there! Do everything you can!“I’ll shut down the damn hospital if you can’t bring him back!”Naturally, Soren could not accept the fact his brother died for him.The doctor sighed.“It’s n
Beep beep beep!Along with Harvey York’s movements, the flatlined heartrate showing on the monitor started responding again.Watson Braff was slowly recovering.But soon after, before the crowd’s gazes, the beating heart rate was gone again.The people who were exhilarated felt lost immediately after.Only Harvey remained calm. He knew that Watson needed time to recover.It was only normal for him to be weakened like this because of blood loss.Harvey started poking at different parts of Watson’s body, enhancing his blood flow.“What is this? You got a response from him, and now you’re just massaging him?The doctor was filled with rage after seeing the sight.On the one hand, she was completely embarrassed by the shock she felt just now. On the other hand, she was enraged that Harvey exposed why she was unwilling to save Watson.“There’s no saving Mr. Braff!“It seemed like he was recovering after you screwed around, but that was just for a brief moment!“What’s the point
Harvey York looked calm while doing his own thing, completely ignoring the doctor.The doctor showed a cold look, thinking that what she said was right.“We have the youngest and most outstanding medical staff here! We’re professionals!“We already announced Mr. Braff’s death! Even God wouldn’t be able to save him!”The beautiful nurses on the side took their masks off while coldly glaring at Harvey, thinking he was just here to cause trouble as he pleased.“People should always remain humble,” replied Harvey.“You can’t do it, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I can’t.“There’s always another person better than you. You should understand that.”“I can’t do it?The doctor immediately lashed out after hearing those words.“Listen to me, kid! I’m not a con man like you!“I’m the top doctor of the Oak Crest Hospital, Maren Failes!“My teacher is none other than Oskar Armstrong himself!“I’ve been in the profession for almost five years! I’m also the newly-appointed vice direc
“You’ve had asthma since high school, right?” Harvey York asked.“You must’ve been practicing Taichi before realizing that!“And ever since then, you’ve abandoned doing sports even!“You claim you’re a professional, yet you can’t deal with that problem yourself? How are you this shameless?”Maren Failes’ prideful expression froze after hearing Harvey expose such a thing about her.“How did you know that?!”Maren looked horrified. She took quite a lot of asthma medication and had a lot of non-invasive surgeries…And yet what happened?Nothing.This was her biggest secret. She would run into the restroom whenever she had an asthma reaction so no one could tell…But she did not expect Harvey to point that out without knowing anything about her.Everyone would start doubting her medical skills now.Harvey did not stop trashing Maren after seeing the shock on her face.“Can’t you see the gap between us?“I can exactly discern your ailment, and you tell me I can’t save Watson B
Soren Braff quickly rushed forward before covering up Watson Braff’s artery with an excited look on his face.“He’s alive! I can’t believe this!”He could not even properly articulate his thoughts at this very moment.Every single apparatus strapped to Watson was rapidly displaying numbers, showing that his vitals were completely normal.Maren Failes and the others were in utter disbelief.‘He’s alive?’‘That’s insane!’‘How…’‘How is this possible?!’Harvey York calmly walked toward Maren before raising her chin.“Make sure you deal with everything else.“Head to Fortune Hall when you’re done.“I’ll be needing a few hands there, after all.”***An hour later, Harvey sat on the chair at the hospital’s entrance with his eyes closed.It was not hard to bring Watson back, but it demanded a lot of energy from him to accomplish such a feat.After all, he was using techniques that he gathered from the battlefield.He was just waiting for the news, hoping that Watson could be
Soren Braff glanced at Harvey York’s phone and saw Thomas Burton’s name on the screen.Soren did not pick up at first, but the phone rang several times.After remembering that Thomas was Harvey’s driver, Soren finally picked up the phone since he was worried that something might have happened.“Hello, Thomas. Master York’s in the restroom…”“This is bad! Those b*stards are in the hospital right now!Thomas did not even check who was the person on the other side of the call. Screams of utter chaos were constantly heard from the phone.“They said that they want you and your wife alive! They want you two to end up with a fate worse than death!“Get your wife out of here, Sir York!”‘They want them alive?‘A fate worse than death?Soren’s professional instincts made him jump up immediately.“Where are you?”“We’re still in front of the intensive care unit upstairs! They took Maya away, but…”Pfft!Sounds of a person coughing up blood were heard before a string of wretched lau
“Where’s Harvey York?“Where’s that b*stard hiding?“Get him out of here already!”Jinny’s feminine energy was mixed with the fierce look on his face at this moment.Maya Lee’s face was utterly swollen when she burst into tears. She had never experienced something like this in her entire life.“Stop f*cking crying already! Do you think I’ll treat you nicely just because you’re pretty?“I like strong men!Jinny gave Maya another slap across his face before he disgustedly let go of her.“Get this b*tch out of here. We’re finding Harvey next,” he said with a cold smile.Maya wanted to say that she was not Mandy…But her entire body was trembling out of fear. She could not even utter a single word.Just like a sheep completely surrounded by a pack of wolves, she was helplessly dragged to the elevator without any way of fending herself.The nurses standing not too far away were crying profusely. It was an extremely miserable sight.Thomas Burton gritted his teeth, trying to get
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
Daichi had already checked the Chapter of Ascension earlier back in Grand City, but he could not leave with it. Only after Harvey gave his green light would Rachel pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi.Harvey gave Kenta a look and then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "Pass him the thing and escort him out."Harvey was straight-faced when he said that. While he had read it through, he did not believe that the Chapter of Ascension would really allow one to reach Unity between Nature and Man. It was not that Harvey was underestimating Hale, but as a martial art elite himself, he knew very well that there were many things required an epiphany to comprehend, and not just some so-called Chapter of Ascension.If that thing was really as effective as people said, Hale would not be hunted for more than a decade. In no time, a few hours went by. Kenta picked up his phone and after listening to the other side, he smiled. "You really are an honest man. Working with you is a very pl
Kenta continued to speak to Harvey in a chatty manner. "Everyone here can see how powerful you are. Unless we can kill you without any doubt, we won't be able to survive your revenge later on. That's why… You can trust me."Harvey looked at Kenta coldly. "Of course you won't be able to kill me. However, I need to make sure Mandy and my men are safe. That's why there's no need to waste your breath here."All you need to do is to give me an answer. Will you come with us? Before we leave, someone will let Daichi examine the Chapter of Ascension. Once we've left Sky Plane for about an hour, that person will then pass the Chapter of Ascension to Daichi. Don't worry. I'm a man of my word."Kenta smiled. "We'll believe you if you're willing to personally guarantee it. It's decided then. I believe we can work well together. Now, let's go."As soon as Kenta finished saying that, he waved his hand. All the Islander elites stepped aside despite the weapons in their hands. This was also a way
Slap!Harvey gave another slap at Jun's face."So what if I did? I'll kill you if you waste anymore of my time!" Before Jun could even finish, Harvey had already grabbed him by his neck. Onmyojis are physically weaker than most, so Jun could not fight back at all while being held like that."You fool! Release Mr. Jun!""Mr. Jun is one of the best among the onmyojis in Sky Plane!""Don't show any disrespect!"All the Islanders roared when they saw Harvey disrespected Jun so much. They quickly drew their long swords and pointed them at Harvey. Dozens of people also started to approach Mandy. Clarion and the others also reacted quickly, protecting Mandy behind them. The atmosphere between both sides became extremely tense in just one moment.Harvey's hand never released Jun's throat as he calmly turned to Kenta and said, "Alright, Kenta. Let's continue the discussion of our three conditions. The first condition is that you must escort us out of Sky Plane and guarantee our safety. A
"You really are very impressive, Kenta. It's quite rare for someone like you to exist within the Fujihara family," commented Harvey after he took a deep breath and loosened his fists. "I have a feeling that someone like you will eventually climb up the ladder. Who knows, you might be the next Island Nation's Emperor."All the Islanders around them had strange looks after they heard what Harvey had just said. Even Kenta's eyes twitched before he replied helplessly, "You're joking, Mr. Harvey. I'm just someone from the branch family. The emperor's throne has always belonged to the main branch and the main branch alone."Then, Kenta changed the subject after that. "Since it sounds like you have a change of mind, does it mean you're willing to fulfill your part of the promise?"Harvey calmly said, "Not exactly. This is just a simple trade, and so is the trade's content. I'll give you the Chapter of Ascension, and you promise three things. That's reasonable…"At this point, the mysterio
Looking at Kenta's expression, Harvey's eyes narrowed. The Islanders could become fanatical most of the time, and he knew that very well from how Kenta was presenting himself. Their people believed in collectivism to the point of radicalism. One single word from their superiors was enough to make them sacrifice themselves and fight to the bitter end, not to mention if they were convinced if it was for the greater good.In short, if he really refused to give them the Chapter of Ascension, then Kenta would really give up on this pretentious act and detonate the Emerald Jewel. However, while the Emerald Jewel could injure him, he knew it could not kill him. But, Mandy and the others were another case entirely. If the Emerald Jewel was detonated, none of them could escape.Harvey frowned, realizing that the situation was getting more complicated."Mr. Harvey, you understand that the Chapter of Ascension isn't worth the lives of the people here. Not to mention if you do manage to obtain
"Firstly, this is Sky Plane. This is the Sacred Martial Art Training Ground for the Island Nation. Based on the promise made between each of the Sacred Training Grounds, we can consider one as hostile if they enter without an invitation. That's why when you barged into this place without invitation and were suspected of murdering the citizens of Sky Plane, we have the right to stop you from leaving the place and investigate."Secondly, Mr. Sora is a citizen of Sky Plane. It is within reason for us to protect his safety. Thirdly, Grand City will need to give us a reasonable explanation for this."And finally, if any of you refuse to cooperate, then according to the laws of Sky Plane's Admin Board, we have the right to kill all the intruders!" said Kenta with a wide grin."I know you're extremely strong, Mr. Harvey. So strong that you're the best here. But the question is, what's the use if you have personal strength in this situation? Even if you can defeat a hundred, can you defeat
