Chapter 16: Kill the Officials! Kill Them All!
"I, I..."
Johnson had faced officials before, but this was the first time he encountered one so furious.
Johnson, for once, felt a pang of fear.
He spoke slowly.
"Sir, I didn't mean that! We believe this man, Joseph, has done something wrong! They have private weapons! They are highly dangerous individuals! They pose a threat to our country!"
Saul ignored his words, refusing to be swayed.
"And you think I don't know the misdeeds of your family? Your family has been committing all sorts of crimes for years! Do you think I can believe you'll do good?"
"They might be highly dangerous, but what about you? Are you not utterly vile?"
Saul's anger was unprecedented.
Johnson turned pale as death.
"I, I didn't mean it that way, I, I..."
Although he was indeed a figure in Los Angeles, the truth was, without the help of officials, he wouldn't survive in the city.
Unexpectedly, simply disciplining Joseph had drawn the attention of Los Angeles officials!
Who exactly was this Joseph?!
"Get out of here quickly! If you don't leave, you'll die!"
Hearing Saul's words, Jackson urgently asked Johnson.
"What should we do now?"
Johnson waved his hand fiercely.
"It doesn't matter! If they dare confront us like this, we'll kill them all! Your son is already dead! Should we still fear these people? Moreover, only Saul has come as an official! What are you afraid of?"
Johnson's words completely relaxed Jackson's nerves.
That's right, his son was dead. Even if the officials wanted to trouble him now, he wouldn't hesitate!
What are officials compared to his son?!
Can officials bring Tom back to him?!
Thinking of this, Jackson looked coldly at Joseph.
"Just wait!"
Seeing Jackson and Johnson not speaking any more harsh words, Saul prepared to walk over and take them away.
No matter what, he had to separate them from Joseph!
However, just then, Jackson aimed his gun at Saul!
"Stop! One more step and I'll shoot!"
Saul's face turned pale!
Since when had Jackson become so bold?
He actually pointed a gun at a Los Angeles official!
Johnson, on the other hand, looked like he was enjoying the show.
"Mr. Saul, don't bother with us! Today, we fight to the death! No matter what, we must kill Joseph! And Joseph's woman must die too!"
Johnson had noticed the hesitation in Saul's heart.
Saul was a bit scared, but he knew that at this dangerous moment, he couldn't back down!
If he wanted to survive, he couldn't retreat now!
He had originally wanted to eradicate the notorious gang in Los Angeles.
Now, under the pretext of helping Joseph, maybe, just maybe, he could kill two birds with one stone!
With this thought, Saul set aside his fear and looked calmly at the two men before him.
"Mr. Johnson, haven't you considered the consequences? If you harm me, you are opposing the Los Angeles officials!"
Johnson shamelessly played the victim.
"Me? I haven't done anything wrong! You're standing with these criminals; you're all in cahoots! Killing you would be serving justice!"
"Our family might even gain attention and praise for this!"
Johnson was now determined.
Either kill or be killed!
That way, no one could spread the word!
Speaking, Johnson raised his gun at Saul.
"No!"
Johnson thought Saul was speaking to him, but Saul was looking at Joseph.
"Lord of Hell, I apologize. I should have arrested them all, but you can see, they're tough to deal with..."
Joseph nodded calmly.
"I understand. These people are indeed scum, but I don't mind. Leave it to me."
"Lord of Hell, don't you think we've made a mistake?"
Joseph shook his head.
"Whatever you do has nothing to do with me. The only thing I want to do now is kill the Johnson family. They are my only enemies."
Joseph's words left everyone wide-eyed in shock.
They hadn't expected Joseph to say such a thing.
It was a blatant disregard for the Los Angeles officials!
Although his tone was better than Johnson's, he still showed disdain for the officials!
Saul's face turned extremely awkward.
He wanted to admit his mistake but couldn't. After all, he had planned to arrest everyone.
But he hadn't expected them to be so brazen!
His abilities were too weak.
Being looked down upon by Joseph was understandable.
After all, he was Joseph!
And Saul was just a minor official!
Johnson had lost his mind.
"You are the Lord of Hell?! Hahaha! I see who you are! You pretended to scare me, making me think you were a true master! But you're not! You're just a facade!"
"You wanted to scare me into giving up my plans! But I won't! Today, either you die or I live!"
Joseph's gaze turned cold.
Hearing Johnson's words, he suddenly laughed coldly.
"If you wish to die, I won't stop you."
Johnson, fearless, called to his men.
"Attack! Whoever kills Joseph will get $10,000!"
These men were following Johnson for money. Hearing they would get $10,000 for killing Joseph, they all excitedly raised their weapons towards Joseph!
