Chapter 925 Should You Be Asking This
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
At a particular harbor, a large crowd had gathered to watch the participants board the ship.
Meanwhile, many other teams had quit the competition. Consequently, only three teams remained for the team event. They were Chanaea, Seneris, and Jetroina.
Meanwhile, every member of the Department of Justice was all geared up. Holding weapons in their hands, all of them were in high spirits. The fact that Jared was their leader filled them with confidence.
When he saw how his men were smiling and feeling buoyant, Theodore felt an inexplicable sensation in his heart.
He knew the Jetroinians very well. They were cruel and had no regard for rules at all. In fact, there was barely any humanity in them.
Consequently, they had to have something up their sleeve the moment they proposed the team event.
“General Jackson, don’t worry. I’ll make sure all of them come back alive,” Jared reassured Theodore when he saw how worried he was.
“Our hopes are now placed in your hands.” That was the only thing Theodore could do now.
“General, with Mr. Chance on our side, we’ll definitely win,” Shane declared confidently, for all of them had seen the extent of Jared’s powers.
Since he had also defeated Ichiro, everyone was certain that they would be victorious in the team event.
However, Theodore didn’t comment because he wasn’t as optimistic as the rest. So as to not demoralize his men, he chose to remain silent instead.
“Jared, let’s go together.”
At that moment, Andrew led his men over, for he intended to sail there with Jared.
“Princess Anne?”
Theodore was baffled as to why Andrew led his men over and wanted to travel with Jared. Given that it was a team event, they were supposed to be competing against each other.
“General Jackson, I have ordered Andrew not to compete with you. All we’re looking for is to ally with you to annihilate the Jetroinians on the island so that they will never be able to return,” Anne explained to Theodore.
“Erm…” Theodore was stunned. “Princess Anne, isn’t it against the rules?”
“Why would it be? Once we’re on the island, no one is going to care about the rules anymore. Do you think the Jetroinians would stick to them?” Anne questioned aloud.
Theodore smiled in resignation, for he knew very well how dishonorable the Jetroinians were. In fact, the latter might have even laid traps and were just waiting for them to step in.
Now that Andrew had decided to battle Ichiro together with them, Theodore felt a meaningful sense of relief.
As the cruise ship’s horn blared, the three teams boarded it and set sail for the small island.
Even though there were many unknown dangers on the island, every participant carried a GPS tracker and a communications device. At any moment they were unable to continue, they could call it quits and someone would come to retrieve them.
Onboard the ship, Jared and his men chatted cordially with Andrew and his team. Only Ichiro and his group sat quietly by the side.
Meanwhile, a warrior holding a blade and dressed in samurai gear walked up to Ichiro and asked softly, “Sir, it looks like Chanaea and Seneris have formed an alliance. In that case, wouldn’t fighting two teams put us at a disadvantage?”
Observing how Jared and Andrew discussed with each other, Ichiro didn’t feel nervous at all. Instead, a devious glint flashed in his eye. “Since they intend to work together, just let them do it. When the time comes, no one will be able to leave the island.”
“Do you already have a plan, sir?” the warrior probed.
Ichiro was briefly stunned before replying coldly, “You fool! Is that something you should be asking?”
Faced with Ichiro’s anger, the warrior was terrified. He bowed to apologize at once. “I’m sorry for my mistake.”
