Zane was the first to get out of the car.

  He gently closed the car door and then turned around, shouting, "Rebellion! I think it's you in the security bureau who are trying to rebel! We are the Royal Secret Intelligence Bureau, what's the meaning of drawing swords against us? Do you all not value your heads?!"

  As he spoke, Zane smashed his fists together, creating the sound of metal g.

  Seeing Zahe sheriffs khat Bck Mamba must also be present.

  Fag a woman aced to using executions to express her opinions, the sheriffs' momentum weakened a bit.

  One of the sheriff captains said, "We are all serving the Empire. If there's a misuanding, we talk it out. How about ut away our ons first?"

  Zane crossed his arms, arrogantly saying, "We talk, but you put away your ons first."

  The sheriff captain didn't want to escate the situation and signaled his subordio put away their ons.

  Zane also ordered the agents to put their ons away.

  Shelley said to Lucas, "Ior, it's safe outside."

  "Okay."

  Zane opehe car door for him.

  When Lucas stepped out of the car, he immediately became the ter of attention.

  Zane was a hothead, and the only person he usually respected was Bck Mamba.

  For this person to make Zane open the car door and act so respectfully, could he be...

  Upon seeing the ior badge on his chest, everyone immediately knew his identity.

  The new ior of the Seawall District's Secret Intelligence Bureau.

  Lucas, leaning on his e, first sed the surroundings, then slowly walked towards the entrance of the Mad Axe Gang headquarters, all eyes on him.

  Shelley and Zane followed behind him.

  As he passed by the sheriff captain, Lucas didn't even g him, instead iing the t castle walls and gate in front of him.

  "Captain Basel, where is your bureau chief?"

  "Ior, hello." Being named, Basel immediately saluted Lucas respectfully, "Our bureau chief is attending a meeting at the tral district security headquarters. Here..."

  "This pce is now uhe trol of the Secret Intelligence Bureau. You leave."

  The security bureau had a bunch of forces waiting to split the spoils from the Mad Axe Gang, so there was no way they would easily give up this ce to destroy the gang.

  "Ior... The Mad Axe Gang is an illegal anization. They've itted numerous illegal activities in the Seawall District, even colluding with pirates to harm the is of the Empire's wful merts.

  Our Seawall District Security Bureau has been monit them for a long time and has substantial evidence of their crimes. We are here to arrest those involved in the case.

  Please don't obstruct us from perf our duties."

  Lucas didn't expect the security bureau to use su excuse against the Mad Axe Gang.

  If handled improperly, he could be accused of proteg an illegal anization and colluding with pirates.

  Just starting his post, gettiangled in such a wsuit would definitely affect his future promotions.

  But promotions... What do they matter to a fake ior like him?!

  Captain Basel had a look of amusement on his face.

  He seemed certain that the new ior of the Secret Intelligence Bureau, being new, wouldn't stick his neck out fang uo him a himself into trouble.

  Finally, Lucas looked at Basel.

  In a ptuous tone, he said, "Captain Basel... Everything must be sedary to imperial security. I don't care how much evidence your security bureau has against the Mad Axe Gang; we have our own matters requiring their cooperation for an iigation.

  You will retreat. This pce is now under our trol. Do you have any objes?"

  Basel didn't expect the new ior of the Seawall District's Secret Intelligence Bureau to be this tough.

  The money from the Mad Axe Gang didn't go into your pocket, so why bother inviting such trouble?

  "Ior, you o think this through. The crimes itted by the Mad Axe Gang are very serious, especially their collusion with pirates... It's a major crime that the Empire is crag down on.

  You've just arrived in the Seawall Distrid might not be fully aware of the situation here. Don't be misled by false information."

  Shelley pced her hand on her gun handle, angrily saying, "Basel, what do you mean by that?"

  Lucas raised a hand to stop Shelley from losiemper and then said to Basel, "Are y to teach me how to do my job?"

  Basel quickly responded, "No, no, no, I'm merely you some advice."

  Lucas smiled and said, "Thank you for your advice. But... do you think I brought so many people here just to turn around because of your advice? Only one of us go in. Is it you? Or is it me?"

  Under Lucas's gaze, Basel started to sweat from the pressure.

  This was no longer about bes ht and wrong; it had bee a matter of pride.

  "Ior, I think..."

  "Basel! I am going through that door, no matter what. If you don't want to leave, then wait outside. If you dare to force your way in... Zane!"

  Zane so attention.

  "Yes, Ior!"

  "Until I e out, anyone who tries to enter... kill them! I will take full responsibility!"

  "Yes, Ior!"

  After Lucas finished speaking, he and Shelley walked towards the gate. The Mad Axe Gang members guarding the entrance immediately and respectfully weled them inside.

  Following orders, Zaore off his shirt, casting aside the shredded rags, revealing his meical arm and tire-like muscles. He looked at the sheriffs provocatively.

  As if saying: "Just try taking a step forward."

  The tough fear the reckless, and the reckless fear those who are suicidal. Zane was tough, reckless, and suicidal.

  Meanwhile, the Seawall District sheriffs were just there to earn their pay, none of them intending to risk their lives.

  Seeing that Zane had received a kill order from the Seawall District's Secret Intelligence Bureau Ior, all the sheriffs not only refrained from stepping forward but collectively took a step back.

  Basel watched as the Seawall District Secret Intelligence Bureau ior walked inside, saying nothing further.

  The current situation was beyond his authority to resolve; he could only acquiesce to this oute.

  Lucas ehe Mad Axe Gang headquarters, greeted by the familiar sight of the castle.

  Returning to an old haunt brought a flood of emotions.

  At that moment, the remaining embers of the Mad Axe Gang approached, their expressions as if they were seeing their saviors.

  If the Secret Intelligence Bureau hadn't sent people st night, angs might have already stormed in. By daybreak, the Secret Intelligence Bureau firmly kept the security bureau at bay.

  They had just heard the new ior of the Secret Intelligence Bureau issue a kill order to protect them.

  Who else but their parents would go to such lengths for them?

  The gratitude of the Mad Axe Gang towards Lucas alpable, dispelling any previous fears of abando.

  After the deaths of Jumu and several embers, Lambert, who had met with E the previous day, became the temporary leader of the Mad Axe Gang.

  Lambert approached Lucas, bowing in salute, "The Mad Axe Gang is grateful for the ior's rescue."

  At this moment, a gang member brought over a wooden box.

  Shelley ope. Ihe gems, gold, and money dazzled the eye.

  Lucas smiled and had Shelley put it away, then addressed the gang members, "It seems the people outside aren't willing to withdraw just like that. Let's go inside and discuss how to hahe crisis at hand."
