Tell the Truth

The excellent trade war was endless. Laffitte City, Brande Marshal Mansion.

"Haven't we found Zuo Zuomu, Locke, and Barett? Didn't you say that you already know their plan?" Brandde slammed his hands on the table and looked at Sagaki, who was still sitting on the table and eating all kinds of delicious food.

"Ah, ah! Haha, Field Marshal Brand, don't worry. Locke and Barett will appear. It's useless to be anxious. Speaking of which, this food is delicious!" Sagaki casually teased Brand and continued to eat his food. "Bastard!" Brand ruthlessly punched the table, and the powerful force directly collapsed the table.

"Crash --"

The plate fell to the ground for a moment and broke into pieces. "Ah, what a pity. The food was so delicious." Zuo Zuomu put down the chopsticks in his hand and casually threw them away. Sagaki slowly stood up, took the sword from the wall behind him, and hung it on his waist.

Sasaki slowly stood up and walked to Brandde. "Of course, I remember our agreement. However, after meeting Locke and Barett, I suddenly changed my mind." Looking down at Brandde, who was only about 1.6 meters tall, Sasaki slowly raised his face.

Brandd looked up at Sasaki and felt the aura emanating from his tall, sturdy body. Cold sweat immediately dripped from his forehead. "Bastard! Sasaki, do you want to betray me and destroy our agreement?"

Sasaki burst into laughter when he heard what Brande said. "Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Brande, you must know that in this world, only the strong have the right to control their fate! Moreover, only those with equal strength are qualified to cooperate with you! You are just a weak person!"

"JANG!"

The long sword at his waist slowly slid out of the sword sheath, and the cold light shone on Field Marshal Brandd's face. "Damn it! Go to hell! Sasaki! Guards!" Field Marshal Brandd roared and quickly retreated, shouting.

* ta *

When Field Marshal Brandd finished speaking, countless soldiers rushed in from outside the hall and surrounded Sasaki. Looking at Sasaki, who was covered, and the soldiers who protected him in the middle, he was suddenly full of confidence.

[Sasaki! Even if your strength is muscular, it will be futile in the face of absolute numbers! Go, kill him! ]

"Oh," The soldiers immediately rushed toward Sasaki after receiving his order. Sasaki pulled out his sword and watched the soldiers roaring at him without panicking. "Hahaha, what a joke! Reed! Boss Locke said the number of people is just ants in front of absolute strength!" Sagaki laughed, stepped on the ground, and rushed to kill the soldiers.

"Boom"

The entire hall instantly turned into a battlefield. At the center of Laffitte City, Locke and Barett began their actions. Barett arrived alone at the military warehouse of the military camp headquarters.

After killing all the guards, he walked straight in. He suddenly grinned at the various weapons and guns in the warehouse. "Hahaha! This is a good place. Then, let's begin! Form!"

Buzz -

The black and red light quickly covered the entire warehouse. Under cover of the light, all the weapons flew towards Barett. In just a few minutes, a loud and clear roar of a beast resounded in the sky above the entire Laffitte City.

After the vast smoke and dust dispersed, a giant beast over ten meters tall, its entire body shining with a cold metallic light, and filled with gun-like cannon control, appeared in everyone's line of sight.

"Aoo"

The giant beast let out a loud and clear roar. Strong air currents continuously danced, engulfing the entire city. "Hahaha! Come! Feel despair!" Barett's loud laughter sounded from the sky and entered the ears of countless people.

The people in the city looked at the giant metal beast that had suddenly appeared. When they heard Barett's voice, they immediately panicked!

"What is that? A monster!"

"Damn it! What are the guards doing? Hurry up and stop that fellow!"

"What a good toy! I want that fellow to become my slave!"

"Go to hell!"

Weng!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boom!

Barett roared angrily. Then, the cannon holes and gun control on the giant beast started attacking. Under the concentrated bombardment, the whole of Laffitte turned into a sea of fire in just a few seconds.

"Ah! Help!"

"Run!"

"Bastards! Guards, guards! What are you doing!"

"Damn it, who is it? How dare he attack Laffitte! There are fifty thousand troops here! How dare he!"

"Mom, dad! Wu, I'm so scared!"

The entire street was in chaos. Countless people were running around, trying to escape and save their lives. Nobles, civilians, children, and enslaved people were all trying to escape.

Locke stood on a tall tower and looked at Barrett, who was destroying everything in his path. He looked at his life, which was threatened by his life. "What an ugly performance," Locke murmured and turned to look at the largest castle in the city, the castle owned by Field Marshal Brandd.

Sasaki has made the right choice. Hmph, he is not too stupid. His potential is alright as an ancient animal species and a half-Fishman. He should be a good fighter in the future." Locke commented calmly as he looked at Sagaki, who was charging the soldiers with a sword.

"Hey! You are the mastermind, Locke. I didn't expect you to be so funny. You are standing here and watching the slaughter." Suddenly, a teasing voice came from behind Locke. Locke turned his head and looked over. The man had a redhead, a black military uniform, and a black cape. He was tall and sturdy.

Behind the man stood a tall, muscular man with countless scars. A considerable spot ran across his entire face. He looked terrifying. Locke recognized the man the moment he saw him.

Three years ago, he suddenly appeared at the foot of Mount Geta and almost killed him and Barett to get the general. When the general saw Locke's face, he recognized him as well.

"Hahaha, isn't this little brat we met at the foot of Mount Geta? You didn't die. You are lucky. You survived after suffering such a serious injury and even have such strong strength. Your luck is excellent." The Chicken Crown General narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.

"Ah, I also didn't expect to meet here," Locke responded in a light tone. Ignoring Locke's tone, Chicken Crown General looked down at the sea of fire below and read.

"Little brat, why did you betray this country? With such power, you can make a name for yourself in this country. Why do you risk your life to go against the kingdom?"

"Make a name for yourself? Hmph, why do you keep this country that is filled with war and despair all year round?" Locke asked in a flat tone. The chicken-crowned general immediately burst into laughter upon hearing Locke's words.

"Little brat, what's wrong with war? It's because of war that we can obtain more power. It's because of war. As long as there are powerful people, we can easily obtain rich rewards. What's wrong with war?"

"But because of war, countless civilians became homeless refugees. Countless children lost their parents' homes. This endless war made everyone feel despair."

"Tsk, they are just a bunch of lowly commoners. It doesn't matter how many of them die. They are weak, ignorant, and lowly. They are only worthy of being the pawns of us strong practitioners."

"Moreover, haven't you always followed the principle of the strong dominating everything?" After listening to the words of the Chicken Crown General, Locke's expression was icy.

Although he also followed the principle of survival of the fittest, if he could live a peaceful and happy life, who would be willing to dance on the tip of a blade?

Moreover, because of the endless war of a thousand years, the entire country's people had become fanatical militants with no one to speak of. "There is no need to save this country!"

Locke slowly pulled out the long sword at his waist. Looking at Locke's actions, the Mohawk general was not surprised. "Erga, kill him!"
