Chaplain! - Chapter 1334
Chapter 1334: Chapter 1331
The Imperial Study, already decked in somewhat dark decor, became even more oppressive amid the ensuing silence.
The prince, too, stopped speaking.
As a subject, the one thing that is most dangerous to speculate upon is the emperor’s mindset!
Otherwise, you might die one day without ever knowing why.
He was a clever man and naturally wouldn’t do anything foolish!
“Let the light come sooner!”
After the Earth Emperor spoke these words, he fell silent, and the meaning behind them was very clear.
The prince understood as well; it meant that the killing should stop.
What he wanted was not a scenario where the ninjutsu community in this country suffered heavy casualties.
As for Oliver Walker?
Whether he was dead or alive, the Earth Emperor had never cared!
Furthermore, if the battle against the death god continued for too long, it would cause social unrest within the East Mainland and result in more loss than gain.
So, as an emperor, he naturally had to consider these matters.
However, even under such pursuit, Oliver Walker managed to leave unscathed, which was enough to prove his strength. Perhaps the rumor from five years ago, about him single-handedly slaughtering a hundred thousand troops from the Divine Ox Kingdom, was also true.
Of course, Oliver Walker didn’t kill a hundred thousand people in this battle.
After all, Jessica Wright, Vivian Li, Lucas Davis, and Li Daoyang were among his strongest allies.
And among the one hundred and eighty thousand dead, many were factions that had killed each other.
For instance, the Green Blood Legion had died at the hands of the death god’s army.
But even so, to have killed Maruko Show, the Sword Saint ranked seventh, while only sustaining light injuries, was enough to prove that Oliver Walker’s strength had fully recovered.
This battle, rife with schemes and counter-schemes, was almost absurd and yet inevitably occurred.
Even if Oliver Walker hadn’t come to East Mainland, this battle would have happened sooner or later.
Thus, Oliver Walker merely accelerated the fuse for this conflict.
When the prince conveyed the royal command on behalf of the royal family…
The top brass of the Yamaguchi-gumi let out a sigh of relief at their meeting!
The Wright Company did the same!
In the end, the Earth Emperor held back!
Otherwise…
It would have been too cruel!
And with the task to kill the death god removed from the dark web by the Yamaguchi-gumi, the pursuing troops gradually got the news.
Everyone stopped.
It was as if it had all been a dream!
There was no sense of reality at all!
At this moment, the sun had already set.
Night was about to fall.
And the sealed-off area was littered with corpses too gruesome to bear witness to.
The most tragic place of all was the Kyoto International Airport, bustling with activity in the morning, now a pile of rubble.
Still emanating black smoke and unextinguished flames.
As for those who lay buried beneath…
There were even more!
“Fuck you!”
Jin Lisi couldn’t accept such an outcome and stood up, slamming her hands on the conference table as she shouted, “To assassinate Oliver Walker was the alliance’s decision. Does the head of Yamaguchi-gumi intend to damage the cooperation agreement with the alliance?”
Yamaguchi Kuntai shouted back in a rage, “Damn it!”
“If it is the alliance’s decision, why doesn’t the Federal Bureau of Investigation send their people to deal with it?”
With just one sentence!
Jin Lisi was left speechless with just a single sentence.
The atmosphere in the meeting room grew tense to the extreme, and after a long silence, Jin Lisi angrily turned and stormed out, not forgetting to shout, “I hope the head of Yamaguchi-gumi can be as tough in facing the following investigation from the alliance as he was with me!”
Yamaguchi Kuntai slammed the table and roared angrily, “Who do you think you are?”
“Damn it to hell!”
“Order everyone to pull back, send the corpse of the Wright Company traitor, Jessica, to Wright Company.”
“From now on, without orders, no further conflicts are allowed!”
What did this mean?
It was a truce!
After all, the casualties had been too heavy. If the fight continued, the Yamaguchi-gumi would lose its dominance over the underworld in East Mainland.
And such an outcome was exactly what Wesley Wright wanted.
