Chapter 347 - 317: Contemporary Sword Saint
Japan, Tokyo.
When the news that Wu would replace Li San in the duel came, the Guandong Association immediately organized a meeting.
Besides the Guandong Association, the Black Dragon Group, Fengshan Association, and three other Extreme Organizations participated in this meeting.
This duel between the Guandong Association and Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall involved a total bet of six hundred million US Dollars, as well as many businesses of both sides, covering a vast spectrum of interests. More importantly, victory in the duel would offer a chance to consolidate a footing in the United States, which was very tempting to these Extreme Organizations in Japan.
The Guandong Association had previously established a branch in New York but was so pressured by Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall that they left in low spirits. As a result, the Chairman of the Guandong Association reached out to four other Extreme Organizations to make a joint move into the United States.
Wu’s appearance was a surprise to them, as no one expected Wu to have such a good relationship with Zhiyuan Hall and be willing to fight on their behalf.
"The strength of Wu, who killed Watanabe and defeated Feng Lin of Longhua Association not long ago, might not be inferior to Li San. Are you confident, Xiaoze?" the vice-leader of the Black Dragon Group asked.
After the news came, all the attendees became familiar with the information regarding Wu’s previous achievements.
The Chairman of the Guandong Association looked at the others. "The challenge has been issued, whether there’s confidence or not, this battle must be fought!"
The vice-leader of the Black Dragon Association frowned and looked at the others. This kind of response naturally couldn’t satisfy the rest, as three hundred million of the bet was from these other organizations, and some of the stakes involved businesses related to the attending groups. A loss would not only cause severe pain but certainly leave them feeling the sting.
"As far as I know, Watanabe had a high reputation in the Martial Arts World. He had many friends and seniors. Don’t those people want to avenge him after his death at Wu’s hands?" the leader of the Fengshan Association suddenly spoke.
