Chapter 106: The Empire's Strongest General Defeated in One Move

General Budo did not ask the guards why they had not captured that intruder, because the more than a dozen guards lying on the ground groaning over there had already given the answer.

As for why these guards did not draw their guns to attack, it was mainly because firing guns inside the Imperial Palace was a taboo.

"Who are you? Don't you know that trespassing into the Imperial Palace is a great crime?"

General Budo walked out through the passage made by the Imperial Palace guards, his imposing appearance clearly showing he was someone of importance.

Broly had been showing the shopping voucher here for a while, thinking the information in his mind was useless and was about to change his communication method, when someone different walked out.

Immediately, Broly felt the communication method in his mind had taken effect, and said directly: "You can call me Yamparu. I have no intention of intruding here; I just want to do business with the Empire, but the people at the door disagreed, so I came in."

"Do business?"

General Budo furrowed his brow.

"What kind of business do you want to do with the Empire?"

"It's Teigu business. I heard there are surplus Teigu in the Imperial Army Armory, so I want to buy 1234..." Broly said as he counted on his fingers, then revealed a number of Teigu corresponding to the number of people in the party, "I want to buy sixteen Teigu from the Empire."

Hearing this, General Budo was angered into laughter: "What do you think Teigu are? Cabbage sold everywhere? Sixteen Teigu, let alone whether the Imperial Army Armory has them or not, even if it does, do you think a faceless fellow like you could buy them?"

"Eh, so if I show my face, I can buy them?"

Broly's eyes lit up as he asked.

"Is this a matter of showing your face?"

General Budo roared out, and only calmed down after roaring.

"If you really want to obtain Teigu, then serve the Empire. As long as you have the ability, the Empire will not be stingy in granting Teigu usage rights to some loyal subjects."

Being able to knock down more than a dozen Imperial Palace guards, the intruder before him had already shown his strength, and the voice he heard did not sound very mature; he should just be a young fellow.

General Budo was relatively fond of talent. If the other party was willing to submit to the Empire and pass his test, and after investigating their background there were no problems, he was willing to protect this fellow who trespassed into the Imperial Palace in the name of General.

"Fine, then what does the Empire need me to do? As long as it's not too complex and I'm unable to do it, I'll do it for the Empire."

After hearing General Budo's words, Broly only thought for a moment before agreeing to the transaction conditions proposed by the other party.

Although he had thought of directly giving money to forcibly take the Teigu when he came, if there was a better transaction method, Broly was still willing to use a better transaction method.

"However, I want sixteen Teigu. One Teigu counts as one matter, so I can do sixteen things for the Empire."

Thinking of the number of Teigu he needed, Broly added.

"What do you take the Empire for? The Empire wants loyal and capable subjects, not a mercenary hired by Teigu."

General Budo felt he had been played by the intruder before him, and he gave up the plan of using words to make the intruder surrender.

"Forget it, I'll just take you down!"

Wearing Gravity Armor, but this General's movements were very flexible; he reached out and grabbed Broly's shoulder.

"What?"

Just as he was about to press the short masked man down to the ground, the other party's hand instead grabbed his wrist, lifting both his feet off the ground.

"Ha~"

With both feet floating in the air, General Budo was extremely shocked, but his reaction was also very quick. He grabbed the intruder's wrist with his backhand, flipped and landed on both feet, and in a half-body iron bridge pose, lifted Broly up.

"Eh?!"

Broly was somewhat surprised, thinking the other party would be thrown away like an ordinary guard, but he didn't expect this person to react and make a corresponding counter-move. After thinking, just as Broly was being lifted over the head and was about to be smashed to the ground by General Budo's backhand, he put his feet together and kicked against the other's chest.

Broly landed lightly, while General Budo's chest suffered a tremendous force, his whole body like a cannonball being shot out.

With a boom, a large pillar of the Imperial Palace building not far away was smashed into one piece. After such a buffer, General Budo, wearing Teigu Gravity Armor, was still imprinted on the wall behind before he stopped.

Rubble fell down. As the human body left the wall surface and fell from the wall, General Budo's eyes had already rolled back, completely losing consciousness.

"Just one strike, and General Budo fell?"

The Imperial Palace guards completely could not believe what was happening before their eyes.

"Uh..."

Broly tiptoed over, squatted down, and poked this person's face with his finger. Finding no signs of waking up, he became somewhat troubled. The person who could make decisions had been kicked unconscious by him; what should he do now? Broly thought for a moment, then grabbed a guard who intended to stay away from him and asked: "Where are the Teigu in the Imperial Palace kept?"

Since the person who raised objections was gone, then he would just proceed with the transaction method he originally thought of. The zero-yuan purchase dance had already been danced; next it was time for the segment of putting goods into sacks.

"I don't know."

The captured guard did not know whether he dared not speak or truly did not know. Anyway, he just said that, and the person was thrown away. Broly continued to change people to grab and interrogate.

Although it looked like the thrown person would not die, just fell rather badly, but there were aristocratic children idling their days away among this group of Imperial Palace guards. Normally, shedding a bit of blood would make these aristocratic children scream loudly. Under the threat of possibly being severely injured, someone soon pointed out the way for Broly.

"Thank you, you are a good person."

Broly put down this person, tidied up their messy clothes, and sincerely thanked them.

The next second, his figure disappeared from the front courtyard, heading toward the place the other person had pointed out.

"These intersections all look about the same. Which one is the correct one?"

However, Broly had somewhat overestimated his ability to find a specific room according to written descriptions, and instead got lost in the complex environment of the Imperial Palace.

"What, that stubborn fellow Budo was knocked down in one move by the intruder?"

Hearing the report from his subordinate who returned, Minister Honest was greatly shocked.

"Did that intruder say what he came to do?"

Minister Honest was somewhat worried about being assassinated. You must know that there are now many righteous men in the Empire who regard him as a traitor and rebel, wishing to kill him quickly.

"Too far, I didn't hear clearly."

Suzuka shook her head. When she went over, she just happened to see the scene of General Budo being defeated in one move.

And after seeing the Empire's number one general defeated in one move, where would she still dare to approach? Instead, she took advantage of Broly grabbing people to interrogate and accelerated back to report the situation.

"No good, I have to leave here."

Minister Honest had no sense of security. Even General Budo, the number one general, had been defeated in one move. He did not think the Rakshasa Four Ghosts could protect him.

"Where exactly is the Armory?"

Just as Honest opened the door and went out, Broly happened to be passing by the corridor outside, and with the door next to him suddenly opening, he stopped.

Suzuka, one of the Rakshasa Four Ghosts, met his gaze, and was directly scared into extending her claws; the other Rakshasa Four Ghosts, seeing this, also realized the situation was not good, and all readied their guard.
