-249- The real leader

"Graves, you need to bring your guns to help, and also, get all your men." Sarah turned around and commanded Graves.

"You haven't even become the ruler of this city yet, stop ordering me around you nagging woman!" Graves grumbled discontentedly.

That woman was just like that, proud and domineering to death. After all, she alone disrupted the turmoil in Bilgewater and gradually rallied a team to confront Plank and his men.

Graves and Twisted Fate had both witnessed Sarah's domineering attitude.

Because Sarah was the initiator of the deal between the three of them. After hearing about Graves' situation, she found Graves alone with a gun and talked a lot, eventually convincing Twisted Fate.

So this woman wasn't afraid of death. If she were, she wouldn't have become Bilgewater's deadliest bounty hunter.

Despite his curses, Graves still followed Sarah's orders, shouldering his gun and looking at the surrounding enforcers who had formed a neat and ready line, revealing a ferocious smile.

The enforcers from Zaun and Piltover were too useful.

They could fight, repel enemies, and obey orders. This disciplined army could only be found in two places on Runeterra: Demacia's Dauntless Vanguard and the enforcer legion of the Twin Cities.

And Graves believed that the Twin Cities' army had surpassed Demacia's.

These powerful and deadly weapons!

With a new fate bestowed upon his shoulders, Graves roared, "Enforcers!"

Embracing his destiny, Blackbeard shouted again, "Move out!"

"..."

However, the enforcers remained in place, Jack staring ahead with his hat neatly on his head, paying no attention to Graves.

"I said, Jack, let's move out. We're going to fight sea monsters. What are you doing?" Graves didn't even know what embarrassment meant. He walked up, cigar in hand, looked at Jack, and continued, "Don't tell me you're still only listening to Twisted Fate's orders at this point? What time is it? Come on, give your good buddy some face."

Jack: "..."

Graves: "?"

On the side, Twisted Fate looked at Linwin, who was smiling knowingly, and sighed helplessly.

His brother's brain really didn't work; his head was just there for show.

Linwin stood there, and if the enforcers didn't listen to Linwin, why would they listen to you?

Sarah didn't initially understand either, but soon she understood the reason.

When she was on the her own ship, as long as Sarah was there, the crew would ignore Rafen's words.

And now, it was the same.

"Enforcers."

Linwin raised his hand slightly, making a clenched fist gesture and stood behind Graves.

"Whoosh!"

At Linwin's signal, all the enforcers placed their guns aside and looked towards Linwin.

They too looked at Linwin with fervor and fear in his eyes.

The first batch of enforcers from Zaun were trained by Linwin, followed by Sevika and Vi's training. And this team leader was one of the candidates trained by Linwin at the time. Even further back, when he was still in the undercity, he had even lost three teeth and a hand to Linwin.

The undercity's enforcer in the white was like the Grim Reaper to the undercity gangs back in the days.

A man feared by the Zaun's undercity.

Jack also stared ahead, raising his neck and waiting for Linwin's command.

He was a Piltie, but that didn't stop him from admiring Linwin because the man in front of him was not only the ninth councilor of Piltover but also the man who single-handedly confronted Noxus during the Twin Cities' Day and repelled thousands of Noxian soldiers.

"At ease," Linwin spoke again.

Graves watched this scene, rubbed his head, and after some thought, he actually joined the group of enforcers, mimicking their actions.

After all, during their time in Zaun, both Twisted Fate and Graves had spent some time training with the enforcer teams.

Sarah, on the sidelines, was looking at this scene.

His voice wasn't loud, but it made dozens of people react simultaneously, and their movements were uniform.

Sarah's eyes gleamed, her gaze fixed on Linwin's back. Indeed, Graves was just a worker. The true leader of this group of blue-clad killers was the unremarkable black-haired youth before her.

She suddenly felt that Graves might not have been boasting.

Because a man who could make these enforcers, who terrified the people of Bilgewater, behave so obediently couldn't possibly be weak. Moreover, this guy had just demonstrated magic in front of Sarah.

With these thoughts, Sarah harbored some ulterior motives in her heart.

She never feared the strong, nor did she submit to them.

Her mother's experience taught Sarah that in this world, only strength mattered. Without strength, even submitting to the powerful would only lead to exploitation and slow death.

"You all have two jobs," Linwin smiled, extending his index finger.

"One, protect the Hextech stations."

"Two, drive away the sea monsters and help protect the people of Bilgewater."

At the moment he put down his hand, Linwin raised his voice and asked loudly, "Understood?"

"Yes sir!" Jack hammered his right hand against his left chest and shouted forcefully.

"Snya, you take the second team." With a wave of his hand, Jack continued, "First team, follow me!"

Linwin watched from the side.

Jack and the Zaunite squad leader named Snya quickly dispersed with their men. The latter led a group of enforcers carrying guns, stepping onto the Hextech hoverboards and rushing towards the upper area.

The Hextech long rifle was incredibly powerful, with a long range when fully charged, and it could hit huge sea monsters without worrying about accuracy issues due to distance.

"Graves!"

"You take to the frontline and kill those sea monsters near the dock!"

"The rest of you! Before the elders of Buhru arrive, we need to hit them hard!"

Linwin displayed a strange expression as he watched.

Sure enough, being around for a long time made a difference. Jack commanded well. In just a minute, the enforcers each found what they needed to do.

Graves also charged to the front lines with his shotgun in hand.

His specially crafted Hextech shotgun was immensely powerful; when fully charged, it could produce the effect of a cannon. However, its flaw was its short attack range and weak long-distance attack power, making it easy to lose track of targets.

But when it came to shooting sea monsters within a dozen meters, Graves could make every shot count.

The deity worshiped by the people of Buhru was called Bearded Lady.

Therefore, in the eyes of Bilgewater people who believed in Buhru culture, "Beard" represented many things.

Graves often shone brightly in battles against sea monsters. That's why he was called Blackbeard.

"Your subordinates are really disciplined," Sarah said admiringly on the side.

"That's Zaunites for you, Miss Fortune," Linwin replied.
