“How dare you look down on Head Marlon like that, you b*stard?!“Do you want to die or something?!”A fierce man was boiling with anger. He could not stand the fact that his boss was getting belittled.He picked up a trash can before throwing it toward Harvey York’s face.Bam!Harvey kicked the trash can back without batting an eye, hitting the man in the head.The man’s head was covered in blood before he completely passed out.Harvey could not be bothered to talk any longer. While everyone was in utter chaos, he stepped forward and sent everyone flying with a single slap each.In just under a minute, the fierce men were all twitching on the ground nonstop.A simple movement was enough to show just how powerful Harvey actually was.“B*stard!”After seeing Harvey slapped his men aside, Jinny was filled with rage and fear.He could not believe that someone this impressive was in Golden Sands.After realizing Harvey was an expert martial artist, Jinny quickly pulled out his
“What? You’re not answering?”“We’ll do it again, then!”Bang!This time, Jinny pulled the trigger on Soren’s left arm.Soren revealed a miserable and enraged expression, but he said nothing and only gritted his teeth.The entire corridor was filled with the smell of blood and gunpowder.“One last chance.”Jinny pointed the barrel at Maya’s head, making her burst in tears again.“Are you coming or not?”“I know you’re good. I know you can fight…”“But no matter how fast you are, how many do you think you can save?”“If you keep resisting, they die!”Naturally, Jinny was experienced with such things.He knew how to deter capable fighters like Harvey.As for morals and justice, none of that mattered to him.All that mattered was taking Harvey down.“You b*stard! If you lay even a finger on him, I’ll make your life a living hell!”“I’ll make you regret coming into this damn world!”“I don’t care who’s supporting you! I’ll f*cking kill every single one of you!”Soren cov
Jinny thought about the situation for a moment before finally deciding not to go against Harvey.“Take him out of here!” he ordered coldly.He planned to take Harvey away before looking for another chance to take Maya later.He already knew what she looked like anyway, so he wasn’t scared of her running away.Harvey was pushed into the trunk of the Toyota Prado, a firearm pointed on his head all the way.The car left the scene soon after.Thomas and Maya had pained expressions.Soren covered his arm and asked a nurse to bandage him. Then, he dialed a number on his phone.“Send word! Get the SWAT team!”…Half an hour later, inside a villa in the city’s suburbs.The classic-looking villa resided beside mountains and rivers.Tall walls surrounded the entire place. Electric wires, spotlights, and patrol officers could be seen everywhere. There were also many wolfhounds on guard.Those who didn’t know would think of the place as some sort of military garrison.In actuality, t
“You didn’t think we’d meet again so soon, huh?” Anthony burst out laughing as he held his head still.“Just like I said! You can’t afford to go against me!”“Not just now…”“You’d have no right to oppose me even after ten lifetimes!”“You’ve been acting tough back in the Royal Clubhouse! Why are you being so timid now?”Raven slowly dragged herself in front of Harvey and tapped his face a few times.“You damn b*stard! Do you think you’re impressive just because you can beat a few people at once?”“Let me tell you something!”“The waters here run deep!”“In Golden Sands…”“You have no choice…”“But to kneel!”“Besides, you’re just an ignorant young man! What right do you have to show off here?”“I’ll do it myself!”“You smashed my head with a wine bottle!”“I’ll break all ten of your fingers myself!”Raven took a drag of her cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke.“Trust me! I’ll make you feel real good!”A twisted chuckle escaped her mouth after she said those word
Not only was Harvey completely void of terror, but he was even showing a pitying expression.Seeing that, Jinny approached him fiercely.“You’re a prisoner here, you b*stard! What’s the point of showing off now?”Raven chuckled coldly.“Are you saying that we took a shortcut?”“You’re the one who did just that!”The beautiful women laughed their stomachs off after hearing Raven’s words.After all, Harvey was still acting so arrogantly despite him already being a prisoner.They thought that the live-in son-in-law was simply ignorant.They started waving their phones around, waiting for the moment Harvey finally kneeled.“I’m getting a little annoyed by you right now, kid!”Jinny marched toward Harvey with a mocking expression.“Grovel for mercy, and I’ll plead to Head Marlon for your life!”“Maybe we’ll let you have seconds after we get a piece of Mandy!”Naturally, Jinny wanted to reclaim the pride he lost at the hospital before.“Move!”Harvey immediately sent Jinny fl
Everyone there trembled the moment they heard that. Panic colored their faces. Harvey looked calmly at Jinny and the others.“Looks like your time’s up.”All the beautiful women looked at Harvey in shock.They didn’t expect Harvey to be this accurate.The entire villa was now in complete chaos. Every single door was blasted open by explosives.The place was quickly surrounded—nobody had the chance to run away.Anthony, who had been acting all high and mighty moments ago, was frozen stiff.“How did the police get here?”“Who gave them the courage?”“Don’t they know whose turf this is?”“Do they want their jobs taken away from them?”Raven instinctively tried to call for help, but she quickly realized that the signal was cut off.“So what if the SWAT team’s here? Someone even said he was the director of the police station before!”“Do they think I’m easy to fool?”Jinny soon came to his senses. He was furious.“Don’t be scared, brothers! We’ll go out together!”Naturall
Raven and Anthony didn’t understand why someone like Harvey would be friends with Soren.He was from the Braff family, after all!More importantly, with Soren’s identity, why would he mobilize the SWAT team just for an ordinary man?‘Who is this guy?’Raven and Anthony’s faces darkened instantly.They realized that they were done for.The beautiful women were starting to panic as well. After seeing Harvey’s gaze, the disdain on their faces immediately turned into fear.He was clearly no ordinary man if the director of the Golden Sands Police Station would show up himself to save him.Bam!Soren swung his leg forward, breaking both of Jinny’s legs without hesitation.The sight immediately made Anthony pass out. Raven and the beautiful women’s faces lost color after seeing what happened.“Take them all back for questioning.”“Arrest or kill them as planned.”Soren looked at them with a cold glare. “The government has already given us orders to prevent organizations like th
Harvey smiled.“Just pretend I don’t exist at all.”Harvey then asked Soren to take him home.While on the road, Harvey frowned.“Right. I haven’t seen Marlon yet, though. How are we going to deal with him?”He had never met Marlon before; judging from the villa’s situation and Jinny’s way of doing things, though, it was clear that Marlon was a lawless outlaw. People like him weren’t easy to deal with at all.Mandy would be in deep trouble if Marlon was kept alive.“We’ll definitely go after him sooner or later.”Soren revealed a gloomy expression.“That said, I don’t have enough evidence to make sure he doesn’t come back out.”“He’ll only be locked for a few years.”“Since he rarely gets himself involved in all the heinous crimes he’s been working on in secret, he has connections from this city all the way to Wolsing.”“These people won’t be able to stop him from being charged, but they’ll definitely do everything in their power to keep him alive.”“That said, I’ll do my
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
