Chapter 239

"Their strength is formidable..."

"..."

After a long silence, Hades finally retracted his hand.

After all, he had lived over a hundred years; once he calmed down, Hades clearly saw his own situation.

Having exhausted his last bit of magical power, he was now utterly powerless; if not for the final appearance of Tian Dao Pei En, he would already be dead in the opponent's hands.

From Tian Dao Pei En's words, he could sense that the other seemed deeply wary of Black Hu Zi.

If he were to act, even he himself might be in danger.

"I understand."

"Why..."

Though too far away to hear what Hades said, Bruno saw Hades's gaze and instantly knew he had been abandoned.

In an instant, fear consumed Bruno's entire mind; the terror of death shattered his pride.

He wanted to flee, but his bones were shattered; his pain-racked body could barely crawl a few meters, and at this moment, Black Hu Zi was only dozens of meters away from his position.

Plop—!

Before he had crawled far, the arm wrapped in Armament Haki had pierced through his heart.

Blood gushed out,

In his final moments, Bruno's eyes remained filled with despair... and a trace of resentment.

Carrying the two corpses, Black Hu Zi departed from the battlefield under the gaze of all.

"Finally... is it over?"

At this moment, the few aboard the magic airship stared blankly at Black Hu Zi's retreating figure.

Undeniably, after Black Hu Zi's departure, everyone present felt a wave of relief.

Too terrifying!

Too terrifying!

Although Black Hu Zi's target had shifted from Hades and 'Wu' to Bruno and 'Wu', no one present could have imagined that Black Hu Zi would ultimately succeed.

Moreover, if not for Tian Dao Pei En's final appearance, their president would likely have died in the opponent's hands.

Single-handedly, he stood against the entire Heart of the Devil.

He killed one of the Seven Heavenly Inferno Affiliates, one vice president, and a former leader of the Anheigong Society, then walked away unscathed.

They could not imagine how great a reaction this news would provoke once it was chuanchugai society.

"Although I've said this before, I'll ask once more."

After Black Hu Zi vanished completely from view, Tian Dao Pei En slowly turned his gaze toward Hades and spoke softly.

"Having known suffering, do you choose to join the Akatsuki?"
