Chapter 72 Black Eagle
“I was just here to have some fun, why talk about looking for trouble?” Billy took a drag of his cigarette. “Alright, give us the money. It’s only ten billion, your gambling den should be able to handle it, right?”
“Do you know whose territory this is? Do you even realize the consequences of causing trouble here?” asked Emily.
She didn’t believe that Billy’s group was here to gamble. Judge’s slash just now was definitely from a Battle Master level expert. She knew the three of them came prepared.
“My time is limited, so you better hurry up and give me the money. If you can’t make the decision yourself, then ask for permission from above.” Billy spoke calmly.
“In that case, let me see what tricks you have.” Emily’s tone turned cold. “Attack!”
Several black-clothed men in the room and the beautiful female dealer all launched their attacks to charge at Billy and his group.
“Stop!” Just then, a deep voice rang out followed by a group of people walking in through a side door.
The leader was a man 50-odd years old with fierce features and one arm missing. He appeared a tough and formidable guy. Following behind him was an old man with a full forehead; there seemed to be daggers shooting out of his eyes. After them, four black-clothed men were standing behind, having something bulging at their waists indicating they had weapons on them.
“Mr Twitty!” Everyone including Emily trembled before bowing down to the lead respectfully.
“Bunch of pussies!” Hannibal Twitty aka Black Eagle said sternly before turning towards Billy. “… what should I call you?”
As he spoke, there was a glint in his eyes. He vaguely felt that Billy seemed familiar, but couldn’t remember where he had seen him before.
“My surname is Gardner!” Billy narrowed his eyes as he looked at the other man.
On the way here, Judge had already shown him a photo of Black Eagle, so he recognized him at first glance.
“Gardner?” Black Eagle furrowed his brows slightly and couldn’t recall anything about it.
After pausing for a moment, he continued speaking, “The people below don’t understand the rules. Don’t take offense to them, Mr Gardner.”
Then he turned to Emily and asked, “What are you still standing there for? You lost the bet fair and square. Give Mr Gardner his money!”
“Mr Twitty, he…” Emily hesitated slightly.
“Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Black Eagle’s tone became heavy.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“I see.” Emily quickly turned around to leave the room. Less than two minutes later, she walked back in with a check in her hand and a tinge of hatred in her eye as she handed it over to Billy.
“Thanks!” Billy took the check with a faint smile on his face before turning back to Black Eagle. “There’s something I want to ask Mr Twitty about. Would you be willing to share some information?”
“Oh?” Black Eagle was slightly surprised. “What do you want to know?”
“Let me start by asking an unrelated question first, should I call you Mr Twitty or Black Eagle?” Billy smiled again.
“Hmm!?” Black Eagle felt panic flooding into his heart. It had been five years since anyone had mentioned that name in front of him. But when the others in the room heard Billy’s words, they too showed a strong sense of shock and tension.
“What’s wrong, Mr Twitty? Can’t answer this question?” Billy smirked.
“Who are you!?”
“I’ll call you Black Eagle then!” Billy smiled faintly. “Don’t recognize me?”
“Let me remind you then. I come from the Miles family in Ozin.”
“What? It’s you?”
He finally realized why he felt familiar with Billy-he was the adopted son of the Miles family. And before that, he thought the Miles family had been wiped out.
“Surprised, aren’t you?” asked Billy.
“How could you still be alive?!”
“I think you know why I came to find you, don’t you?” Billy didn’t answer his question.
Black Eagle suddenly became wary.
“Kill them!” Black Eagle suddenly gave an order.
Four guys in black pulled guns out simultaneously and pulled the triggers.
“You overreached.” Judge commented before moving his legs and wrists. Then his curved sword flipped swiftly between those guys.
As expected, the bullets were all blocked and fell to the ground, emitting a crisp sound. Endless shock appeared on each face.
“Advance!” After the four of them had run out of bullets, everyone except Black Eagle and the old man quickly charged towards Judge at the same time.
Judge launched another attack. In less one minute, all of them lay down badly wounded and even dead.
Black Eagle’s face was full of shock and he trembled slightly. The reason why he dared to open a gambling den here so brazenly in the past two years was that he relied on the strong martial arts experts under his command. He thus had confidence that with these people guarding, not to mention other forces causing trouble, even if the official attacked, he hads the ability to retreat unscathed. But now, all of it had been ruined in the blink of an eye.
“Boy, do not be arrogant!” At this moment, the old man took a deep breath and quickly rushed out.
The fierce air moving forward following his palms was his weapon. Though the old man made his maximum effort causing stunning sounds of the wind, he failed confronting Judge too.
“Too weak!” Judge said coldly, and a cold light following his sword slashed out again.
Soon, the old man was cut in half in a blink.
Black Eagle couldn’t hold on any longer and collapsed onto the ground, shivering all over with an look of terror in his eyes. Unexpectedly, even the strongest person by their side couldn’t take a single blow.
At the same time, following the noises, a group of people in black outside the lobby rushed over towards this direction.
In no time, Just as they had just taken a few steps, they were blocked and killed by a group of black clad people. Before they realized what was going on, they all fell down. One by one, either their hands or legs were broken, blood gushed wildly, and they curled up on the ground, howling loudly. Only then did the gamblers in the hall reacted and immediately let out a scream.
“SHADOW, Everybody out who doesn’t need to be here.” A loud voice spread throughout every corner of the hall.
Dozens of men in brocade stood at the gate.
