Chapter 802: Washington D.C (18)
As I've said many times, humans are creatures of learning.
Among them, the Dagger Team was the top 0.01% who utilized learning, which was the exclusive property of advanced intelligence, better than anyone else, and the Hunters were the enemies designated as the top threat by those people.

Icarus quickly realized why the Gear was disabled, and confirmed that this situation was due to the master code held by Alejandro Webb, who was still exerting influence behind the scenes.
