Hundreds of combat aircraft circled the sky.
On the ground, hundreds upon thousands of tanks, armored vehicles, and convoys drove toward them in mighty formation.
Rumble!
As the tanks approached, the ground shook.
Upon witnessing this spectacle, the men of The Great Four, Dawson, and Nine Fingers went silent.
“What’s going on?”
“W-Why is a military formation heading toward us?”
“What’s happening?”
They were dumbfounded.
“Could be a military exercise.”
“Yes, it has to be. Order the men not to act rashly. We’re gathered here today for the burial of our former leaders. As long as we don’t provoke them, they shouldn’t make things difficult for us.”
“Quick, drop your weapons.”
The men immediately tossed the weapons in their hands.
Meanwhile, those armed with firearms concealed them.
They were not in a hurry to deal with James.
They only needed to wait for the military exercise to be over.
Upon seeing this, however, Rowena was scared out of her wits.
She never thought James would resort to this just to confront the men of The Great Four and the underworld.
James had mobilized the military.
“S-Sir, the tanks and the armored vehicles have surrounded us. Look at the sky! The combat aircraft have been circling above us for quite some time. There must be hundreds of them! Oh my God, what the hell is going on?”
“Could they be here for us?”
Smack!
Nine Fingers slapped the guy who had been blabbering nonstop and rebuked him, “After us? Do you really think that highly of us? Who do you think we are? Think about it. We’re just a bunch of gangsters. Would they resort to this?”
The force of the slap was so great that he collapsed to the ground.
He hurriedly stood and shook his head. “You’re right. You’re right.”
Nine Fingers lifted his head and looked at the combat aircraft circling above them in the sky. His face darkened, and a similar thought appeared in his mind.
“C-could they really be here for us?”
He glanced at Dawson.
Dawson, too, had a grim expression.
