Chapter 659 - 665 Assassination
For a spy organization, having someone in the team with off-the-chart abilities but no loyalty is absolutely unacceptable.
Anton remained in the Organization of Water not for money but simply because he found it amusing, raising the concern that the day he finds it less amusing, he might just leave the organization.
To say that Anton could turn hostile is a kindness; the man had no sense of right and wrong, no moral compass, and no concept of friendship. Yet, he had been involved in many significant events for the Organization of Water, and if Anton wished, he could annihilate the organization in minutes.
Yang Yi didn’t expect every member in the Organization of Water to be completely loyal; that wasn’t realistic. But he could control every single person within it, ensuring no one could betray the organization. Anton was the troubling exception.
Anton was formidable and powerful. If he decided to leave without a word and coincidentally betrayed the organization, Yang Yi would truly be at a loss for options. Even if he could kill Anton in revenge, he’d first have to find him.
Unless Yang Yi killed Anton now, for instance, by suddenly drawing a gun while together and blowing his brains out. Then, no matter how skilled Anton was, he would die.
But Yang Yi couldn’t bear to do it.
Anton was just too useful. For anything that needed doing, Yang Yi could just turn it over to Anton with full confidence it would be handled without a fuss. To kill Anton without a sound was something Yang Yi truly couldn’t bear to do. Talents like him were rare to find, and where would Yang Yi find another so well-rounded and without flaws?
Moreover, Yang Yi just couldn’t bring himself to do such a thing. He simply wasn’t ruthless or cunning enough. Now, although he could be cold and merciless towards his enemies, he could not bring himself to be the same towards his own people.
