Kairi didn’t believe there’d be a spy in the Patel family…But she didn’t say anything about it. She only made a gesture to the driver to follow Harvey’s orders.The car quietly went to the back.Harvey put on a face mask with a cap to hide his face before heading to the isolation area again.When he went through the fire exit, he frowned. The exit was only supposed to work from the inside, but he could push the door open easily.As soon as he touched the lock, he knew someone had tampered with it before.Without any hesitation, he quickly went to the room Nobuyuki was held in. A few figures were gathered inside, with some taking pictures with a phone.Harvey turned on the lights in the corridor.“What are you people doing there?” he demanded. The people taking pictures were clearly startled.According to their information, nobody should’ve been here since everyone in the hospital was changing shifts. And yet, a mysterious man showed up just in time.A woman with beautiful
The representative of Golden Sands’ Island Nations Embassy bringing expert martial artists to the isolation room…Anyone bright enough would know what was going on behind the scenes.Harvey pointed at Ayaka’s phone without wasting any time.“I don’t care how you people got in. You can leave after deleting all the pictures and videos on your phone.”“Delete them?”Ayaka was surprised.“This is evidence of you people shamelessly using a bioweapon on a mighty Islander!“Just you wait! Your country will be judged once we hand this over to the World Civilization Department!“You better not get yourself involved! A small fry like you has no right, nor do you have the ability to!”“You better cooperate. It’d be bad for both sides if anything bad happens,” Harvey warned.Ayaka showed utter disdain after hearing Harvey’s words. She took a step forward, and studied Harvey.“You think we’ll believe you just because you say that? Who do you think you are?”“The Patel family has fifty-o
As the representative of Golden Sands’ Island Nations Embassy, Ayaka had the most exposure to the upper social circle of the city. Naturally, she knew who Kairi was as well.To her, the five hidden families and the Hermit Families had always been discreet as to hide themselves from the top ten families.It was why Kairi had been respectful toward her before.Who would’ve thought she’d slap Ayaka in the face without holding back?The Islanders were enraged. They were used to flaunting their strength back in the Island Nations. Suffering such humiliation was simply unforgivable!“Do you understand the consequences you’ll bear for doing this?”Ayaka came to her senses, and covered her face.“Don’t you know just how uncivilized you are right now?“Shaming a new royal family like this would get you immediate jail time back in the Island Nations!“Let me tell you something! Because of this slap, you and the family behind you… No! The entirety of Country H will have to pay for this!
Harvey and Kairi looked at each other after hearing Ayaka’s words. Harvey was completely speechless.“Are you that stupid?“You want Country H out of the World Civilization Department? You want the counties to sanction us as well?“Are you still dreaming?“Let’s not even decide if the matter’s even worth escalating to that point.“Even if it was…“Did you forget something? Country H also has the right to vote.“You want to kick the country out? Are you insane?“As for Nobuyuki, you people know exactly what happened too.“If you’re going to escalate things, then be my guest. Hopefully, you’ll be able to deal with the consequences after this!”Harvey couldn’t be bothered to talk to Ayaka anymore. He signaled Elias to take the Islanders’ phones and delete everything inside before throwing them out.-When everyone was out of the hospital, Kairi looked at Harvey. “Are we really going to let them go like this?”“They clearly came prepared,” Harvey replied. “If we detained or hu
Sounds of a keyboard clacking could be heard on Kairi’s side. She shook her head.“No. Nothing at all. It’s as if everything Ayaka said yesterday was fake.“Also, there was another news.”Harvey narrowed his eyes. “What is it?”“One of the members of the Five Royal Families, Ibuki Masato, the young master of the Tsuchimikado family, has arrived in Golden Sands. If my guess is correct, Ayaka must’ve stopped her arrangements for the time being because of him.”Harvey frowned. “Ibuki Masato?”“That’s right. He came with another identity as well—the envoy of the Island Nations Embassy. He could represent the emperor of the Island Nations while in Country H.”Harvey’s eyes lit up, and he smiled. “Looks like someone’s desperately trying to put Golden Sands in more trouble…”-At this moment, the Golden Sands International Airport was filled with people. It was barely morning, but a lot of tourists were flooding the gateways.Compared to the ordinary gateways, the ones designated fo
Ibuki’s arrival and Nobuyuki’s corpse snatched away…The two instances seemed irrelevant, but Harvey knew that wasn’t the case at all. From his understanding of the Islanders, he knew the enemy wouldn’t let everything go without a fight.However, he had no intention of causing trouble since Ibuki hadn’t done anything out of line yet.Harvey thought about the situation for a moment before giving Watson—whom he hadn’t been in contact with for a while—a call.Ibuki’s official identity was essentially his safety umbrella in Golden Sands. Thus, Harvey was sure there were things to discuss with an experienced government official like Watson.After Quill’s burial, Harvey didn’t talk to Watson often.Watson immediately accepted Harvey’s invitation as soon as he got the call. The two decided to meet up at the Syca Clubhouse on the outskirts of the city.At four o’clock in the evening, Harvey arrived at the designated venue. He could feel a few judgmental gazes, but then they all disappea
“I see him on the news all the time! How can I not know him? He doesn’t know me, though,” Harvey said.Watson burst out laughing.“You sure are good at scaring people with just words. If I’m in a bad state, my heart would’ve jumped out of my throat by now!”Harvey chuckled.“I’m just kidding with you.“Still, you should just see what happens next. Country H has been at peace since he was put to power. Some powerful people in the past were also suppressed by him.“Safe to say, the country only started flourishing because of him.“At the same time, Big Boss has empathy. He knows that unity of knowledge and practice will carry him through.“People like that are almost no different compared to a saint. Surely he wouldn’t have ulterior motives. You don’t need to be too worried.”Watson trembled, then smiled. “Spectators always have a clearer view of the game, after all… I didn’t think you’d see the picture so clearly, when I’m the one working for the government for so long.“I’v
Bam!Harvey’s expression changed after hearing Watson’s words. Just then, a loud bang was heard.The front door of the place was knocked down.A beautiful figure with a faint fragrance stumbled inside. Her entire body was flushed and covered in sweat; she desperately tried to get back up, but she couldn’t muster the strength to do so. At the same time, her bra and stockings were ripped apart, as if she had been forced to undress.Harvey instinctively looked over, and his expression worsened.‘Arlet? Why is she here?’“Move! Stop disturbing Young Master Yamato’s fun! Anyone who does… I’ll make sure that they die a horrible death!”An arrogant tone could be heard outside.Harvey quickly rushed forward and lifted Arlet. “Why are you here? What happened?”He put his fingers on Arlet’s wrist to check her pulse. He deduced that Arlet was drugged; the effects were strong, and it was just about to go off.He didn’t even have time to figure out how she could get drugged despite her
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
