"Of course." Duncan downed the remaining of his wine and turned to Boris, saying, “I leave the Roche family and the Gold Faction
in your care."
Boris did not seem pleased. Instead, he sighed lightly. "Actually, | would prefer you to retreat to the mountains to cultivate. With
the Tribulation Realm ancestor's heritage, you could break through to the Profound Oriental Realm in five years at most. After that,
no one would be able to threaten you."
"Five years!" Duncan raged, his eyes clouding over with frustration. "If | don't kill Nash, even 500 years wouldn't be enough for me
to break through to the Profound Oriental Realm. He's my greatest obstacle!"
After a moment, he stood up and said, "I'm tired. Who will take care of the city hall issue?"
With the martial and business sectors under control, gaining control of the political sphere would give Duncan dominion over all of
Munford. After that, he planned to lead his forces against Jonford and eliminate Nash.
"I'll handle it," Peter declared confidently. "I'll just use the One God Bug to control those in charge."

Duncan nodded. "Thank you, Godfather."
Above the abandoned power station hovered the transport plane from the Divine Strategy Squadron. The sky was dotted with
numerous black specks that buzzed loudly as they descended toward their target below.
Figures clad in blue and white uniforms descended onto the ground one by one. The martial arts team consisted of five Mystique
Loyalty Realm martial artists, 20 Profound Reality Realm martial artists, and 20 great-grandmasters. The Esper team boasted two
second-generation Espers and 60 first-generation Espers.
Suddenly, an overweight man landed on a high-voltage power line and screeched like a slaughtered pig before falling to the
ground. He then began to froth at the mouth and convulse.
The muscles in Dallas’ face twitched twice as he coldly asked, "Which group is he from?"
Geoff, the head of the third Esper group from the Autumn Squad, gave an embarrassed smile. "He's from my group. He just
recently left Esperville."
"And what exactly is his power?" Dallas asked sternly.
The color drained from Geoff's face as he answered, "He can release gasparable to that of a high-explosive bomb."
A red-haired woman next to them could not help but burst into laughter.
Geoff scowled. "What are you laughing at?"
"It just remindedof something funny!" The redhead, June, was the leader of the second Esper group and also a second-
generation Esper. She managed to speak between chuckles.
Geoff continued, "Deputymander, you shouldn't underestimate him. His gas can flip over a tank!"
Once more, laughter erupted among the group, lightening the tense atmosphere slightly.
The leader of the martial arts group from Autumn Squad also burst into laughter. Geoff glared at him and demanded, "And what
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmare you laughing at?"
With a goofy grin, the leader replied, "I just remembered something funny too!"
"Enough. Bring up the satellite images!" Dallasmanded, clearly uninterested in further explanations from Geoff.
Wendy, Angelica, and Lumi lacked the ability to land from such heights and were entirely dependent on Nash and Bertram, who
grasped their arms to guide them safely.
With a resounding boom, all six landed together.
Glancing at Wendy and the others in their camouflage outfits, he asked, "Lumi, when can we get our uniforms?"
"They customized those themselves," Lumi explained.
"Alright, I'll find someone to design them soon." Lumi nodded in agreement.
"Attention!"
