I am the King

Chapter 95

"Got it!" Dark wasted no words. He forcefully kicked Porter's legs.

Crack! A crisp sound echoed as Porter's legs instantly shattered!

"Ahh!" A heart-wrenching scream filled the air. Porter's face turned pale, sweat dripping from his forehead.

Thud! Dark casually threw Porter to the ground like trash. Several experts from the Joseph family then dragged him away like a dead dog.

Porter glared resentfully at Simona and shouted, "Simona, don't get too cocky. Mr. Chesterton won't let you off!"

"Haha!" Simona sneered. "You think Vincent will come to your rescue? He's probably fighting for his own life right now!"

"What?" Porter couldn't believe it.

'Mr. Chesterton in trouble? How could that be?' Before Porter could process it, he was dragged away.

Next, they tied him up and hung him at the company's entrance.

The sight of it terrified all the employees.

Dark asked, "My lady, now that we've completely taken over Z City, should we proceed to attack M City?"

Their mission, apart from reclaiming Z City, was to eliminate the Joseph family in M City!

Simona chuckled lightly, "No rush. Tomorrow, we'll set off for M City!"

"Yes!" Dark acknowledged and stepped back.

"Vincent, get ready to see what happens when you cross me!" Simona's face twisted into a menacing grin.

Vincent had killed her bodyguard and even slapped her. Simona vowed vengeance!

***

At the Azure Headquarters in Nacehope City. Mr. Grey stood before Tim with deep respect. "Mr. Wright, the England Joseph family has started attacking Z City and is expected to move on M City soon."

Tim nodded approvingly. "Good. So, what should we do about Vincent?"

Mr. Grey hesitated briefly before asking, "Mr. Wright, what's our next move?"

Tim stood up, exuding murderous intent. "To dismantle the Brotherhood, we must first clip its wings. Right now, the Brotherhood's wings are the Big Four Corporations. Since they dare to oppose us, we won't hold back! Our next target: attack the Big Four Corporations! I want them gone from Nacehope City!"

"Understood!" Mr. Grey stepped back and immediately began mobilizing manpower to deal with the Big Four Corporations.

The atmosphere in Nacehope City grew tense.

It was as if the calm before a storm had settled over the once bustling streets, now eerily quiet.

Among the Big Four Corporations, the Raglan family was the most low-key and mysterious. A century ago, their ancestor Norton Raglan had been the overlord of Nacehope City, controlling the entire Azure. However, the Raglan family was once chased out of the Azure because of subsequent wars, yet still stood at the helm of the Big Four Corporations.

Inside the Raglan family's hall sat the chairmen of the Big Four Corporations, , filled with anxiety.

Stan spoke up, "Mr. Raglan, now that we're aligned with the Brotherhood, the Azure surely won't let us off easy."

Spencer nodded, "Exactly! Brotherhood and the Azure are evenly matched. The Azure won't dare to confront Brotherhood directly; their primary target will be us."

Morton added, "The Raglan family leads the Big Four Corporations. We've stood together for centuries. Mr. Raglan, we need your guidance. What should we do?"

In an instant, all eyes turned to Sebastian.

At this moment, Sebastian had his eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to the words of the others. After a moment, he slowly opened eyes, a spark of determination flashing within.

Sebastian had turned seventy this year, weathering countless storms in Nacehope City.

During his grandfather Norton's reign over Nacehope City, the Raglan family wielded considerable influence. Even now, despite their decline, no one dared to underestimate his family.

Seeing everyone awaiting his words, Sebastian scanned them all and said calmly, "In comparison to strength, our Big Four corporations are no match for Azure. So we have only one path forward..."

"Which path?" anxiously asked the chairmen of the three major corporations.

Sebastian remained expressionless. "That is to pledge allegiance to Mr. Chesterton."

"What?" Everyone was suddenly stunned.

Stan asked in confusion, "Didn't we already pay our respects to Mr. Chesterton? Why do we need to pledge allegiance?"

Others also looked at Sebastian puzzled. They had just met Vincent and had offended the Azure for him. Now they needed to pledge allegiance?

"Mr. Chesterton is the son-in-law of the Joseph family in M City, once a wanderer who returned in force after five years. Not only did he help the Joseph family dominate M City, but he also wiped out Osborn, the underground overlord of Z City..."

"His wife, Emma, is now the CEO of V&E Group. Their visit to Nacehope City is to explore the market. Just paying respects to Mr. Chesterton isn't enough. We need to offer a greeting gift..."

"A gift? What kind of it?" Sebastian's words confused everyone.

'One moment it's allegiance, the next it's a gift. What's going on?'

Ignoring their confusion, Sebastian continued, "As everyone knows, over 90% of Nacehope City's market is dominated by our Big Four Corporations and the Azure. V&E Group will face tremendous difficulties entering Nacehope City, so we must lend them a hand..."

Morton of Adams Group, who hadn't spoken much, asked, "How can we help?"

"We each offer half of our assets to V&E Group as a gesture of goodwill."

"What? Half of our assets? Are you crazy?"

Everyone stared at Sebastian in shock.

Giving away half of their assets, worth billions of dollars, just like that?

Sebastian sneered, "Hmph! Is it about saving lives or money? As long as we offer half of our assets, I believe Mr. Chesterton will protect us. Otherwise, who among you can bear the Azure's wrath?"

At his words, they fell silent.

If the Azure really attacks them, none of the Big Four Corporations stand a chance against them. There could even be a risk of annihilation for their families!

But giving away half of their assets is truly heartbreaking.

Spencer gritted his teeth. "We can offer half of our assets, but who knows if that Vincent can really protect us?"

Stan agreed, "If Vincent can't protect us, we might as well give half of our assets to the Brotherhood and let them protect us!"

"Huh!" Sebastian sneered coldly. "Foolish! The Brotherhood is equally matched with the Azure in strength. Even if we're willing to give away half of our assets, what makes you think the Brotherhood has the capability to protect us?"
