The Supreme Soldier in the City

The four men, although they felt the mighty strength of James Brown, were deeply humiliated by the fact that James was still able to strike Christopher Taylor under their protection. As members of the Brownie Family, their sole duty was to serve the family and ensure the safety of its members. Now that Christopher Taylor was injured, they had failed in their responsibilities. If they didn’t restore their honor, they would face severe punishment when they returned.

Without hesitation, the four men sprang forward and charged at James. They refused to believe that, even with their combined strength, they couldn’t subdue him.

James gently patted Emily Lopez and said softly, "Emily, go take care of your sister. Let your brother-in-law deal with these dogs."

Startled by the sheer force radiating from James’s body, Emily involuntarily staggered back several steps and sat firmly on the sofa, while Gina Lopez tumbled beside her. Emily quickly embraced her sister, who clung to her instinctively, twisting her body incessantly without any regard for propriety.

Emily’s attention was fixated on James and the four assailants. The five of them had already engaged in battle, and James was surrounded by the four. Though Emily knew little about martial arts, the ferocity of the punching and kicking convinced her that these adversaries were incredibly skilled.

Christopher Taylor, accustomed to witnessing fighters of this caliber, was most focused on the outcome of the fight. He screamed incessantly, "Kill him! Kill him for me!"

Meanwhile, Larry Frank and his group stared in stunned amazement. They had seen impressive fighters before, but usually, such people were merely brawlers with brute physical strength. However, the combat unfolding before them resembled the precision and ferocity of a martial arts movie—brilliantly choreographed movements, lightning-fast fists and feet, leaving them utterly dazzled.

James Brown had prior dealings with these families and understood that they often employed highly trained fighters loyal to their cause. These experts were tasked with protecting vital family members and performing discreet operations.

But James had never thought much of the martial prowess these families boasted. However, today he had to admit that these fighters weren’t weak. Each of the four posed a significant challenge, comparable to elite hitmen from assassin guilds.

Moreover, the four exhibited team-based strategies, working in coordination to attack ruthlessly, which made them exceptionally difficult to handle.

Still, their skills paled in comparison to James’s superior strength. He avoided using lethal force at first, choosing instead to gauge the true extent of the family’s power. Now that he fully understood their capabilities, his patience had run out.
