Dragon Raja 5

“Then persuade Caesar to change his fiancée! If Caesar disagrees, change the heir!” The crow couldn’t help but get angry. “Do you want to kill someone just for this?”

“Yes, but now that things have developed to this point, who can say that there’s really nothing going on between Lu Jun and Miss Chen?” Fujiwara Nobunosuke exhaled a puff of smoke. “If that clapper sound was played through the loudspeaker of that ship, and Lancelot-kun happened to arrive, wouldn’t be he see Lu Jun transformed into a dragon? Saeki-kun, what do you think would be the outcome of this matter if that were the case?”

Crow suddenly raised its head and stared at Fujiwara Nobunosuke in amazement. In the blink of an eye, the young man had changed. The cigar smoke was blown away by the wind, and his round, lovely face was filled with ridicule and sarcasm.

“You…” Crow’s voice trembled.

“I told Mr. Saeki that the special envoy from the Gattuso family has arrived.” Fujiwara Nobunosuke said slowly.

    ***

Chu Zihang had already reached the bottom of the cabin and was groping his way forward in the dark. The space here felt quite spacious. Above his head were what should have been horizontal and vertical steel beams. There were no portholes on either side because the bottom cabin was actually below the water surface.

He needed to advance a little further, to get closer to the steering wheel, where the space was even narrower and the power of the Sovereign Flame was even greater. It would be best if he could blow a large hole in the bottom of the cabin, so that the seawater could rush in and wash him and the Immortals out.

But he felt a faint sense of unease, because at some point, the rustling sounds had suddenly ceased, as if the Immortals had given up on following him. Could it be that they had turned back to search for Lu Mingfei and the others? Logically, that wasn’t the case. Given their diminished intelligence, it was hard to imagine them abandoning their bait so easily.

Chu Zihang was startled when he stepped on something with a loud clang. He leaned over and picked it up. It was a wrench covered in oil. Someone had left it there. There were no windows or lights. It was too dark. Even though his low-light vision had improved dozens of times after the blood burst, he still couldn’t see clearly.

He hesitated for a moment, then snapped his fingers silently. Immediately, a bright flame appeared between his fingers. He raised the flame high, trying to see his surroundings clearly.

Just then, he felt the danger coming towards him.

It was some kind of extremely heavy and fast weapon, coming through the air, but faster than the air it stirred up! Therefore, Chu Zihang couldn’t even feel the “strong wind” in his face. He could only realize by some instinct that something was coming towards him.

He subconsciously retreated, trying to avoid the sneak attack, but the weapon seemed to have no “attack range” limit at all, following him like a shadow. Chu Zihang could be faster than Susie’s black knife at his maximum speed, but he couldn’t avoid the weapon.

It was some kind of thick iron hook that snagged his neck and lifted him into the air. He didn’t even have a chance to struggle as he was already in mid-air, the spark of fire that had just been ignited falling from his hand. Only in his hands could the Sovereign Flame be controlled. Once it was out of his control, it exploded upon hitting the ground.

Although it was just a small flame lit for illumination, the moment it exploded on the ground was still as dazzling as fireworks.

At this moment, Chu Zihang finally saw clearly the immortal with arms like a giant ape standing on the steel beam above his head. The weapon he was wielding was a crane hook connected to a thick steel cable. He swung the huge hook from mid-air and fished up Chu Zihang with incredible accuracy, while nearly twenty immortals below looked up and watched.

They formed a circle, and the center of this circle was the position of Chu Zihang before he was hung up. It turned out that these immortals had been moving around him silently, and they even suppressed their own heartbeats!

Chu Zihang was dangling back and forth from the hook. If it weren’t for the blood rush that strengthened his bones, the swing alone would have broken his neck. He didn’t know what had happened, why the Immortal suddenly seemed to have a bloodline boost, but he knew that if he didn’t take decisive action at this moment, he would die on this hook.

“Jun Yan” erupted with unprecedented power, and it seemed as if the sun rose in the cabin in an instant!

“It’s… you!” The crow’s eyes were bloodshot.

Yes, how could he have overlooked this person? It was clearly Fujiwara Nobunosuke who had given him the video, yet he had dismissed him as a suspect based on his explanation. Ultimately, Crow had never taken the round-faced man seriously. His awkward demeanor, hesitant words, and those well-placed little gifts had subtly influenced Crow, unknowingly gaining his trust.

If Crow is the best actor, then Fujiwara Nobunosuke is simply a master of hypnosis.

“People always tend to ignore those targets that look weaker than themselves, so the strongest assassins are often not those guys who look majestic, but women and children. wasn’t your friend Sakura such a ninja?” Fujiwara Nobunosuke smiled and dusted off the ash from his cigarette.

“Shut up! You don’t deserve to mention her name!” Crow roared.
