“I think it's better if you help me instead, President Zeigler.
If the Department of Justice found out as I went to investigate alone, I can't guarantee they won't sell you out when they are captured and interrogated...” Yamato smiled, even though his tone clearly expressed threat.
Zion’s expression darkened instantly as he furrowed his eyebrows. “Are you threatening me?”
“No, no. You've mistaken me, President Zeigler. I'm simply reminding you about it out of kindness...” The smile on Yamato's face persisted.
Zion stared at him coldly and silently. He got a hold of dirt on me!
After a while, he slowly uttered, “I'll send people to investigate. I believe it'll only take a few days before I learn where Jared is...”
“Thank you, President Zeigler!” Yamato responded.
“However, I should remind you that the assassins you sent were nothing but a joke. There’s no way they can kill Jared," Zion reminded.
“You don't need to worry about that, President Zeigler. They may not be strong individually, but when they combine their powers, even a Martial Arts Grandmaster like Mr. Gordon won't necessarily be able to defeat them.” Yamato was confident.
“Mhm, that's good to hear.” Zion nodded.
He was aware that, while some people might not be powerful, they knew how to combine their strength with others to increase their power exponentially.
Since the Watanabe family was sending those five assassins, it meant they were excellent in some way.
Although Edgar was the most talented member of his family's younger generation, his defeat had embarrassed the Deragons and made him a laughing stock.
The Deragons had a lot of branch families scattered across the country.
After Edgar's defeat, many of the branch families officially announced their departure from the Deragons, which caused a huge drop in the Deragons' market value.
