Indeed, he would share his son’s fate as well. He could not possibly escape from Jagoan.
Jagoan had already caught up to Zion almost instantaneously and lifted him by grabbing neck from behind like he was catching a baby chicken.
“You-you-you…”
Zion could no longer speak when he felt Jagoan’s terrifying strength lifting him up.
He could also sense Jagoan’s murderous intent!
“Please show mercy, Mr. Larson!”
At that point, he had no choice but to beg for forgiveness despite his identity, status, and honor.
He did not wish to die.
However, would Jagoan give him a chance?
Just as Jagoan was about to make a move, he sensed a familiar presence and heard a familiar voice saying, “Don’t, Jagoan!”
Jagoan heaved a sigh upon hearing the voice and loosened his grip on Zion.
Two more people had shown up at the scene. Who else would it be besides Paxton and Bjorn?
The man who called out to him earlier was Paxton.
It was also due to Paxton that Jagoan would show respect. He would not have stopped for anyone else.
Bjorn’s eyebrows twitched ferociously upon witnessing the scene before him and Zion in his extremely disheveled state. He could not help feeling shocked in spite of himself!
The experienced powerhouse Zion had actually been defeated by Jagoan in one strike. If that was the case, how terrifying was Jagoan?
However, he soon made peace with the knowledge. After all, Jagoan was the freak who had consumed a hundred fruits.
He himself had only consumed two fruits in Shangri-la, and he was granted the ability to dominate the world. Heaven only knew what someone with Jagoan’s achievements could do.
He felt rather dejected. He used to be a fearless man and one of the top geniuses in this world. He assumed that there was no one in this world he could not surpass.
However, he had already stopped thinking that way ever since Jagoan showed up. The man was so powerful and improving so quickly that Bjorn could never catch up to him.
Before, he was under the assumption that he would still stand a chance at surpassing Jagoan after entering Shangri-la.
Instead, the disparity between him and Jagoan grew even greater, to the point that he could never surpass Jagoan for the rest of his life!
In any case, he accepted reality soon enough and made peace with it.
Paxton was slightly astonished as well, but he calmed down soon enough.
He said to Jagoan, “Jagoan, please show your magnanimousness and spare Zion in view of the world’s lack of invincibilis powerhouses. Our common world is in need of him when the formidable enemy is upon us!”
Jagoan heaved a sigh upon hearing that. He said, “Sir Paxton, I understand that the formidable enemy is upon us and that we should prioritize the overall situation.”
‘However, you didn’t see how both Zion and Jean attempted to kill me earlier without hesitation.”
On the ground, Jean and Zion could not keep themselves from lowering their heads in shame upon hearing Jagoan’s remark.
Paxton heaved a sigh and said, “I understand that you were mistreated, Jagoan. It’s only that… Sigh. You may do what you see fit then. It was their fault for making trouble.”
He got out of the way upon saying that.
Zion was terrified upon seeing Paxton’s action. He hastily said, “Paxton, you have to save me, I…”
Paxton interrupted mercilessly before Zion could finish his sentence.
Paxton pointed at Zion and scolded, “Zion Cyprus, you old piece of shit! How dare you try to beg for mercy?! Could it be that you have no idea what kind of person your son is?!”
“He is well aware of Jagoan being our country’s pillar, yet he tried to poison Jagoan! He’s malicious.”
“It’s one thing that you didn’t stop your son from doing so, but you even tried to help him even. Tell me, who deserves death if not you?!”
