Chapter 788 - 793 Fisher
Yang Yi did have some ideas for dealing with Nicholas.
To vie for the inheritance left behind after Deyo’s death, mere ambition clearly wasn’t enough; real strength was necessary. The Organization of Water currently had considerable strength, but taking on Nicholas wouldn’t be easy.
However, if the hardest part was done by others, and he simply followed to reap the benefits, then that would be a different story, wouldn’t it?
Thus, Yang Yi’s trump card was a secret—a secret that Jethro had once told him, but which now hardly anyone cared about.
One very important reason Deyo had gone to war with Big Ivan was that Nicholas had secretly made a move against Ivan.
Who was Ivan, you ask? He was Big Ivan’s own nephew, his only blood relative, and if nothing unexpected happened, Ivan would be Big Ivan’s successor.
Nicholas’s secret action almost killed Ivan, and given Big Ivan’s nature of seeking thorough revenge for any grievance, as long as Big Ivan was alive, he had to kill Nicholas. It was a must.
So, if Big Ivan was still alive, then the Organization of Water actually didn’t need to take on Nicholas themselves. But if Big Ivan had already died, then it would depend on whether Ivan could inherit Big Ivan’s estate.
The situation was now as follows: Big Ivan was alive, so Nicholas must die, Ivan was alive and had taken over Big Ivan’s position, so Nicholas must die. If Gong Yang replaced Big Ivan, then the outcome might be uncertain; he was not likely to consider Nicholas the main enemy, at least not out of vengeance.
But if Nicholas wanted to seize Ukraine, then no matter who Big Ivan’s successor was, they would need to treat Nicholas as the main enemy.
Nicholas wouldn’t give up Ukraine, so the outcome was destined: whether Big Ivan was alive or not, whether Ivan was alive or not, and regardless of whether Gong Yang could take Big Ivan’s place, Nicholas had to die.
