Right then, Nathan's gaze fell on the Jetroinan fishing boats, which were about to dock. He coldly stated, “I've given you a chance, Hidetake, but you refused to retreat. In that case, let's go head-to-head. Whether you want to send all your troops at once and go all out, or if you want to send the strongest of your soldiers to fight one-on-one, we Eurasian soldiers will fight you to the end.”
Hidetake looked around a few times.
Nathan had formidable warriors like Three Tigers and Seven Champions on his side.
However, Hidetake himself had far more warriors. There were a few dozen of them.
If they were able to win by fighting one-on-one, they would not suffer huge losses.
At the thought of that, he narrowed his eyes and answered, “Hmph. I was planning to crush all of you in one blow, but if I did that, you might say that we were ganging up on you guys. Fine, then. I'll send a few of my subordinates to fight you one-on-one. I'd like to see who's stronger between the North Army and Jetroinian Navy.”
Nathan grinned. “We'll fight to the end.”
Even though Hidetake was the strongest in the navy, he was also the highest in command, so it was only natural that he couldn't go and fight.
Blandly, he questioned, “Which one of you is willing to step forth and fight?”
The moment he said that, a bulky, broad-faced navy general with an imposing demeanor grunted, “I, Wafu Takada, offer to fight.”
Wafu Takada!
Hidetake's eyes lit up and he had a look of surprise on his face.
Fang was the strongest general under Nathan's command and Wafu held the same role under Hidetaka.
Wafu was born into a rich family in Jetroina.
He had been trained to be a noble warrior since young.
The clothes he wore were incredibly elegant. He had a white military coat with a crane embroidered on it. His long hair flowed, and the wrinkles on his face were firm. There was a sharp angle to his eyebrows, and a long katana was strapped to his waist.
The sea breeze caused his clothes to flutter, which gave him an ethereal aura.
Hidetake was overjoyed to see that Wafu had taken the initiative to fight. He was full of confidence in Wafu as well.
Every one of them got worked up and began cheering for Wafu.
Fang icily uttered, “I can't believe a rat like you have the guts to challenge a tiger. You don't have the right to challenge Chief Cross, Wafu. I'll be the one to fight you.”
Unexpectedly, Wafu had no intention of conceding.
His gaze calmly remained on Nathan. “I, Wafu Takada, once again invite Mr. Cross to meet his death.”
Nathan glanced at Wafu in front of him and stated, “If anyone wants to challenge me, it should be Hidetake. You are not qualified to do so. However, my subordinate, Fang, can entertain you. If you beat Fang, I'll exchange a few blows with you.”
Wafu did not get angry at Nathan's reply. He nodded sincerely. “I see. I'll kill Fang first. After that, I'll let you meet your death, Mr. Cross.”
He then turned around and stared straight at Fang.
Fang's gaze was chilling. It was clear that he had made up his mind to murder Wafu.
