“Pablo! What do you mean?” Baron roared in exasperation.
Baron put down the bow, looked at him, and said, “Pablo, you are too weak. The Emerald Island in your charge will have no future. If you give it to me, I will expand our territory and seize control of the Divine Immortal Island and the Paloma Island within three years. From then on, my people are superior to others.”
“Let Vincent go and we can talk about this later.” Pablo didn’t believe that they would dare to attack him. He was worried about Vincent’s wounds with anxiety on his face.
“Later? If we can’t reach an agreement, both of you will be killed. You have no chance.” Baron asked contemptuously.
Did he plan to kill him?
It was no wonder that Baron let wolves in and provoked Vincent to come in. He even ambushed so many soldiers here. He was a general and almost all the soldiers on the Emerald Island were loyal to him. Even patrols in the city follow him. Pablo knew this long ago. Pablo pursued peace. So he never thought that there would be a conflict with the Divine Immortal Island again. Even if he had almost lost his life there, he did not risk the lives of his islanders to take revenge.
“What’s the point of you telling me all this?” Pablo calmed down instead, “Why don’t you go and talk to the elders? As long as the elders and the High Priest agree with you, I will give it to you without hesitation.”
“Don’t use the elders to pressure me,” Baron glared at him fiercely, “If it weren’t for your father, do you think you can take the position?”
“Even if your father is the patriarch, you can’t become a good patriarch. The Emerald Island doesn’t need a villain!” Baron retorted coldly, “You want to fight, but do you think of the islanders? They have suffered a lot! Did you forget the chaos ten years ago? That was a bloody lesson! You are not worthy to be the patriarch!”
At the same time, the tens of thousands of islanders under the stage heard these words through the projector. They thought of the difficulties of their parents ten years ago, and their eyes turned red.
“There is no one else here. You don’t have to act as if you care about the rest of the world. I won’t fall for your tricks. I only know that you are weak and incompetent. I can’t figure out why the elders choose a coward like you to be the patriarch…”
“In the entire Emerald Island, I am the only one who is most qualified to be the patriarch!”
“It was me! When the soldiers of Paloma Island attacked us, I was the one who took the lead and rushed in front! All the scars on my body were caused by fighting against the enemies. Why did I risk my life to resist the invasion while you sat at home to reap the benefits? Why did I only get a little reward for my hard work? Why?”
“This position should have been mine! Why did you become the patriarch without any contribution?”
“I will announce to the public that to save Vincent, you were killed by wolves in the hunting ground.” Baron looked at Pablo and shouted.
“You can kill me! Let Vincent go!” Pablo glared at him.
“What a moving scene! I am curious that Vincent and you are not of the same mother. You are not on guard against him, but so concerned about him. Why?” Baron asked thoughtfully.
“He doesn’t want this position.” Pablo looked at Vincent on the back of the horse with eyes red.
The time he had been with the elders and the High Priest was much longer than with Vincent. But after knowing that Vincent was his eldest brother, he became inexplicably close to him.
He had never thought of being wary of Vincent.
He was never worried that Vincent would snatch away his position … because it was Vincent who had assisted him to be a good patriarch. How could he take away his position? … He even did not care about being the Scavos’ patriarch.
Baron curled his lips, revealing his sharp teeth like a bloody wolf. “Care about it or not. It’s a matter of your next life.”
“Baron! Have you thought about the consequence? The elders will not make you the new patriarch just because I am dead!” Baron shouted.
“No, they will choose me because I am the most suitable one to be the patriarch.” Baron pulled up the bow and then aimed an arrow at Baron.
Pablo had been staring at Baron.. This scene would be indelibly imprinted on his mind.
