~8 min read 1,497 words

"Law, can I trouble you with something? This contains important intelligence, please be sure to deliver it to the Imperial Guard at the foot of the mountain."

Tang Mingsong stuffed the paper tube into Law's hand.

Law looked at Tang Mingsong in a daze: "What is this?"

Tang Mingsong smiled without explaining, only urging Law: "This matter concerns the survival of a city. When you complete this mission and return, we will find a place to live in seclusion."

"I don't ask for wealth or power, I only ask that you live a life of peace and joy."

[Woooo, I'm crying to death. Why would such a gentle Tang Mingsong die!]

[Author, come out and explain! What do you mean by torturing the readers like dogs?]

[No wonder Law misses Tang Mingsong so much. Who wouldn't miss him!]

Law took the paper tube and went down the mountain to find the Imperial Guard.

Although his resentment toward the Imperial Guard was deep, and he even wanted to kill all the Imperial Guards with his own hands.

But for Tang Mingsong's sake, he was willing to let go of the hatred in his heart.

Law arrived outside the Imperial Guard camp at the foot of the mountain. At this moment, the Imperial Guard in the camp was reorganizing.

"Stop! Who goes there?" Suddenly, two guards blocked Law's path.

Law said coldly: "I am ordered to deliver a secret letter, please pass it on."

The two guards looked at each other, and one of them walked toward the tent.

A moment later, the guard returned and said to Law: "Follow me in."

The guard led Law to the tent of the Imperial Guard General here.

Law walked in and saw that the tent was simply furnished with a desk, a meditation cushion, and besides that, some armor, weapons, and the like.

"Greetings, General!" Law cupped his hands and shouted respectfully.

"I didn't expect the one delivering the secret letter to be a little brat." The General's gaze fell on Law, his tone full of mockery.

Hearing the other's ridicule, Law had no reaction.

"Little brat, what is your name?" The General looked Law up and down and asked.

"Law! General! Can you go and save my brother? My brother is seriously injured now and has no ability to move. Those martial artists on the mountain will probably be unfavorable to my brother soon." Law pleaded.

Hearing Law mention his brother, the General's expression changed drastically, and then he asked in a deep voice: "Where is your brother?"

Law pointed in the direction of Tang Mingsong: "Over there, about two miles away."

"Damn it!" The General cursed in a low voice and hurriedly walked in the direction of Tang Mingsong, while Law followed closely behind.

When this General met Tang Mingsong, Tang Mingsong looked at him in disbelief.

"Li Wei! Why are you here?"

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, did you deliver this intelligence? And you can actually speak?" Li Wei stared at Tang Mingsong with a puzzled face as well.

Tang Mingsong's head buzzed. So it turned out that when Luffy sent Li Wei out, he had infiltrated the Imperial Guard!

Today's operation really confirmed his identity as an Imperial Guard mole!

"Law! Have you already given him the intelligence?" Tang Mingsong looked at Law.

"Yes! Did you know each other before? What is going on? Mr. Tang Mingsong?"

"Get away from this guy quickly, he is Luffy's man, a mole sent by Luffy into the Imperial Guard!" Tang Mingsong shouted urgently.

Law's expression changed drastically: "Mr. Tang Mingsong! Then aren't we finished?"

Hearing this, Li Wei's mouth curled into a sinister smile: "Hehehe, Mr. Tang Mingsong, you really did betray the Gang Leader. Today I will clean up the portal for the Gang Leader!"

After speaking, Li Wei threw a powerful punch straight at Tang Mingsong.

Tang Mingsong blocked Li Wei's punch with his arms, but was still knocked to the ground.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong!" Law exclaimed.

Tang Mingsong spat out a mouthful of blood.

Tang Mingsong coughed, looked at Law, and said weakly: "Law! Remember! You must escape!"

"Escape? With me here, neither of you will think about escaping!" Li Wei sneered, then attacked Tang Mingsong again.

Law hurriedly ran up, blocked in front of Tang Mingsong, and became entangled with Li Wei.

The difference in martial arts between Law and Li Wei was too great. After a brief entanglement, Law was kicked away by Li Wei.

"Law! Are you okay!" Tang Mingsong struggled to climb up and shouted anxiously.

"Iron Fist!"

This time Li Wei directly attached his martial arts Qi to his fist and hit Tang Mingsong's chest hard.

The sound of bone cracking was particularly harsh in the quiet mountain ridge.

Tang Mingsong spat out another mouthful of blood.

Li Wei looked at Law struggling on the ground, then kicked out again, knocking Law unconscious as well.

Looking at the unconscious Tang Mingsong and Law on the ground, Li Wei used telepathy to communicate with Luffy.

"Gang Leader, you were right, the traitor within the gang is Tang Mingsong. I have now controlled Tang Mingsong and Law. How much longer until you arrive?" Li Wei asked.

"Soon, I am on my way, at most half an hour."

"Understood, Gang Leader!" Li Wei agreed: "Then I will go back to the Imperial Guard side. They have been strict lately, I dare not stay too long, lest I attract their attention."

"Good."

Hanging up the telepathy, Li Wei turned and left.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Tang Mingsong recovered a little. He hid Law in a wooden box and piled a lot of dirt and stones on top of the box to ensure it wouldn't be discovered.

After doing this, Tang Mingsong gritted his teeth and ran hard in another direction.

"Law, you must live well."

Tang Mingsong muttered, as if he couldn't even feel the pain in his feet.

His speed became slower and slower, and he could clearly perceive his body temperature gradually fading.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, please stay!" A loud shout entered Tang Mingsong's ears.

Tang Mingsong trembled all over and looked back.

It was exactly those leaders under Luffy who had arrived here.

The person speaking was none other than Jodia.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, I heard you could always speak, but why did you hide it from us and pretend to be a mute?" Jodia said with a smile, looking at the extremely disheveled Tang Mingsong.

"Of course, it's because there is nothing to say to you, you demons who treat human life like grass!" Tang Mingsong said with hatred.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, don't blame us brothers for being ruthless. Who told you to betray our gang!"

After speaking, Jodia raised his sword and killed Tang Mingsong: "Go to hell!"

Seeing the sharp sword getting closer and closer, Tang Mingsong used his remaining Qi to barely turn his body to the side.

The sharp sword cut Tang Mingsong's shoulder.

Blood immediately stained the clothes Tang Mingsong was wearing. He groaned and stumbled back a few steps, falling to the ground.

At this time, Ola grabbed Tang Mingsong's neck and lifted him up.

"When a traitor appeared in our gang, no one suspected you. After all, you are the Gang Leader's own younger brother. It's a pity, I didn't expect you to choose to betray the gang in the end!"

"Let go of me!" Tang Mingsong struggled to slap Ola's hand, trying to break free from Ola's restraint, but his injuries were too severe.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, if you had been willing to tell us a day earlier, how good would that have been!" Jodia shook his head and sighed.

Ola punched Tang Mingsong in the abdomen, and Tang Mingsong was knocked to the ground again.

Subsequently, Ola stretched out his foot and stepped on Tang Mingsong's chest, making him unable to move at all.

"Bah!" Tang Mingsong spat out a mouthful of saliva.

Ola frowned, raised his leg and kicked Tang Mingsong, causing Tang Mingsong to vomit blood, his whole face twisted.

"Mr. Tang Mingsong, you like to fight hard, don't you? I'll grant your wish!"

After speaking, Ola picked up the dagger hanging from his waist and stabbed at Tang Mingsong.

"Stop!" Luffy's voice sounded abruptly.

Ola immediately stopped, turned back, and bowed to Luffy: "Gang Leader."

"En." Luffy glanced at Ola lightly, then set his sights on Tang Mingsong, his tone calm: "Tang Mingsong, why did you betray me?"

At this moment, Tang Mingsong was lying on the ground, his mouth full of blood, looking at Luffy with venomous eyes.

"Ha? Why betray you? You, a demon who killed his own father, aren't you someone everyone should kill?" Tang Mingsong mocked.

"Tang Mingsong, do you know what you are saying? I killed my father? How could that guy who dragged us from heaven to hell be worthy of being our father!" Luffy scolded angrily.
