Chapter 202 Killing Machine

Seeing the masked man coming out, Zhan Guo couldn't help but be startled. At that moment, his originally tense nerves seemed to be pulled hard, and all the muscles in his body tensed up unconsciously.

He stood up from the chair suddenly, and his movement was so fast that it caused a gust of wind.

The chair behind him shook violently due to the sudden force, as if protesting against its owner's rude treatment.

His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, the joints turned white from the force, and blue veins stood out on the back of his hands like winding earthworms.

Zhan Guo's eyes were fixed on the masked man, his eyes were like two blazing torches, as if he could see through every inch of the masked man's skin and every subtle movement.

His pupils contracted, and his eyes were full of vigilance and inquiry.

"This breath..." Zhan Guo muttered to himself, his voice low and hoarse, as if squeezed out from the depths of his throat.

Fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and those beads sparkled in the dim light of the room like crystal pearls. But Zhan Guo had no time to care about them, as all his attention was focused on the mysterious masked man in front of him.

"What a powerful force!" he exclaimed again, with a hint of barely perceptible fear in his voice.

He could feel the power emanating from the masked man in front of him, like an invisible giant net, tightly covering the entire room.

He tried to analyze the source and nature of this power, but found himself as if trapped in a bottomless vortex. This was the keen perception of a strong man, an intuition honed through countless battles and crises.

That power was like a surging wave, hidden deep within the masked man's body. Every breath and every subtle movement of the masked man seemed to cause this power to tremble slightly.

It is like a sleeping giant. Although it is quiet for the time being, it may explode with devastating energy at any time.

Zhan Guo's heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and he could clearly hear his own heartbeat echoing in his ears.

He swallowed unconsciously, trying to relieve the dryness in his throat, but the tension and pressure were still there, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Eagle at the side saw Zhan Guo's alert look and couldn't help but chuckle. He raised his head slightly, and the laughter sounded particularly harsh in the silent room.

Eagle folded his hands in front of his chest, as if he was a condescending judge, with a smug look on his face and his eyes revealing disdain for Warring States reaction.

"Marshal Zhan Guo, there is no need to be so nervous." Jiu's voice was neither fast nor slow, like a slowly flowing stream, but it carried an irresistible sense of oppression.

His eyes were fixed on Zhan Guo, and every word he spoke was clearly and powerfully transmitted to everyone's ears, "This is a killing machine developed by the World Government. It is a fighting machine with no emotions at all. It will only obey the orders of the person who gave the order."

Zhan Guo was even more shocked when he heard what Eagle said. His eyes, which were already wide open, widened even wider, and his eyes were full of disbelief and deep shock. His eyes shot towards Eagle like a sharp sword, as if he wanted to pierce Eagle.

"What? The World Government has actually developed this kind of thing?" Warring States' voice rose a few notches, filled with anger and shock, as if rolling thunder exploding in the room.

His body trembled slightly, his hands clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white due to the force. "This is simply inhumane!" He shouted loudly, his voice full of condemnation and anger at this behavior.

"Humanity?" Eagle sneered. He took a step forward and looked directly at Sengoku. "Marshal Sengoku, on this sea, power is the key to everything. The World Government needs such weapons to maintain its rule and ensure peace and order."

Zhan Guo was furious, his chest heaving violently, and he retorted loudly: "Peace and order? To achieve it with this emotionless, soulless killing machine? This is a blasphemy against humanity and a distortion of justice!"

"Marshal, you are still too naive." Eagle still had that disgusting smile on his face, "This world is cruel. Only with absolute power can you control everything. This kind of fighting machine is the embodiment of the powerful force of the World Government."

Zhan Guo gritted his teeth and said, "But this kind of inhumane method will eventually be spurned and resisted by the world!"

Eagle shrugged and said, "Resist? In the face of absolute power, all resistance is futile. Marshal Sengoku, you should face reality."

Eagle sneered, his laughter was full of sarcasm and indifference, and said: "Marshal, this is not something you should worry about. The decision of the World Government has its own profound meaning. You just need to obey the arrangements and do your part."

There was a kind of condescending arrogance in his eyes, as if he was looking down on an insignificant being.

Zhan Guo gritted his teeth, his face flushed with anger, and said: "Even CP0, which is known as the strongest shield of the World Government, is not completely an emotionless killing machine. You are so reckless in creating such a thing that goes against human nature. Aren't you afraid of arousing public anger? Do you really think you can maintain your so-called rule by such cruel means?"

His voice was filled with anger and accusation, and every word seemed like a burning cannonball.

Eagle shrugged, his face still indifferent, and said: "Marshal, this is the decision of the top leaders. We are all part of this huge machine, and you and your navy are no exception. How can we easily guess the wisdom of the top leaders? You are just executors and have no right to question or resist."

His tone was nonchalant, as if all this was taken for granted.

Hearing Eagle's words, Zhan Guo could not help but glare at him, his eyes seemed to be burning with raging fire, and asked: "Then what exactly do you want to do with this thing? Is it just to show the so-called supreme power of the World Government? Or are you crazy enough to use this inhumane tool to eliminate all obstacles?"

His body trembled slightly with anger and his voice became a little hoarse.

"Marshal Sengoku, you think too much." Eagle responded lightly, "This is just to maintain the order of the world more effectively. Those pirates and those rebellious forces need to be completely eliminated. And this killing machine will become our most powerful weapon."

Eagle smiled slightly, with a barely perceptible cunning in that smile, and said: "The World Government handed this killing machine to the Navy, requiring you to kill Kaido before executing Fire Fist Ace. This is a mission that must be completed, and there is no room for negotiation."

His tone was firm and cold, as if he was stating an indisputable fact.
