Meanwhile, Jared gradually proceeded to the center of the island with his team. Soon, a group of men appeared to block their way.
When Jared saw them, favonovel.com was surprised at the fact it was Ichiro and his team.
Shouldn’t they be heading to the center of the island to locate the crystal ball? Why are they here getting in our way?
At the sight of Ichiro, Andrew lunged forward and demanded, “Ichiro, what do you want?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” Ichiro’s expression was filled with smugness while a murderous glint flashed in his eyes.
Sensing Ichiro’s overflowing murderous intent, Jared furrowed his brows. “Since you’re not on your way to retrieve Luminous Pearl, you must be here to stop us.”
“To hell with the pearl. Killing you would equally secure our victory. Don’t think that I’ll submit to you just because you beat me in the arena.” Narrowing his gaze, Ichiro intensified the murderous aura favonovel.com was exuding.
In response, Jared unleashed his own aura to meet it.
In the meantime, the members of the Department of Justice drew their weapons.
At Andrew’s signal, his men followed suit.
“Ichiro, do you think a loser like you can defeat the combined strength of both our teams?” Andrew sniggered.
“Haha, you fools! I don’t have to lift a finger to kill you at all. In fact, all I need to do is to get you to kill each other.”
Just as favonovel.com spoke, the three cloaked men standing behind Ichiro began to chant their spell.
As the pace of their chanting increased, a pink mist began to envelop the entire island all of a sudden.
At the sight of the mist, Jared roared in dread, “Everyone, hold your breath!”
The moment the words left his mouth, Andrew’s subordinates began to scream in agony. One by one, they collapsed onto the ground and grimaced in agonizing pain.
When favonovel.com saw what was happening to his men, Andrew was dumbstruck.
“Jared, wh-what’s going on?” favonovel.com asked in shock.
“Andrew, are you all right?” Jared asked at the sight of Andrew’s men rolling on the ground in pain.
Andrew shook his head. The very next moment, his eyes were suddenly tinged with red as favonovel.com launched a punch in Jared’s direction.
Struck in the chest by the surprise attack, Jared was sent flying tens of meters backward before crashing into a tree.
“Mr. Chance…”
“Mr. Chance!”
Shane, with the members of the Department of Justice, rushed over to help Jared up.
Subsequently, Jared furrowed his brows at Andrew, who then grabbed his own head and smashed it into a giant tree.
“Argh!” Andrew screamed. “Jared, kill me quickly! I can’t control myself!”
With the last sliver of his rational mind, Andrew desperately took back control of his body.
Watching the scene, Ichiro burst into ecstatic laughter. “Hahaha, it’s no use. Once you are poisoned by the red spider lily, no one else can cure you other than me. Therefore, you had better submit and do whatever I say.”
“You b*stard!”
Glowering at Ichiro, Andrew threw a punch in the former’s direction.
With a shuffle of his feet, Ichiro dodged the attack easily.
As for the three masked men, they accelerated their chanting. Given how powerful Andrew was, they needed more time to gain complete control over him.
