Chapter 1236
Lord Protector Novel
Zeke recognized a few of them, at first glance.
âYouâre Jack the Ripper from the United States,â he proclaimed, pointing to one of them.
âYouâre the taekwondo master Jose from the UK,â he continued, turning to another one.
âAnd youâre that Indian monk Ghanche,â he added, gesturing to the third person. âReally, Pike? Is that all youâve got? Donât you know how badly theyâd lost to me back then?â
Zeke had faced off against the fifteen archdukes, back when he had conquered the nine nations with the Alpha Suicide Squad, and all fifteen of them had fallen at his feet, pleading for his mercy.
âYou won that battle only because the Alpha Suicide Squad had been by your side,â Pike spat out.
âNow that youâve been separated from them, youâre nothing against us.â
âHave you forgotten how strong I truly am?â Zeke asked. âCome at me! Iâll show you what it means to be a warrior and a defender!â
âKill him!â
Pike gave his command, and the fifteen Archdukes charged towards him, followed closely by Tyrant.
The stronger ones belonged to the Gold Archduke level, while the weakest one was a Silver Archduke.
With the fifteen of them working together, they were a force to be reckoned with.
Their fight with Zeke was almost like a spar between two top-tier Platinum Archdukes.
The shockwaves from each hit almost tore the submarine apart from the inside, some of which sending huge waves crashing down upon them.
This was how a real battlefield looked like!
At one point in time, Tyrantâs fist connected with a pipe in the submarine, shattering it, filling the entire submarine with a misty gas.
Pikeâs vision was obscured by the mist, and he had no choice but to climb to the highest point on the submarine to continue watching the fight.
He chose to stay out of the battle because of his injuries.
The moment he settled down, a dark object came flying at his face. He reached out to catch it by instinct.
His eyes widened immediately.
It was Tyrantâs severed head!
âYou b******!â Pike growled.
Not only did the fifteen Archdukes fail to take Zeke down, rather, they had also lost one of their strongest fighters as well.
Useless imbeciles!
Suddenly, another head came hurtling towards him.
Pike grabbed the head and took a closer look, before flying off into a rage.
It had been the head of Jack the Ripper.
Were my men too weak, or was Zeke Williams simply too strong?
Wasnât he merely a Platinum Archduke? How could he take down my Archdukes so quickly?
Unless...
He shivered, as a terrifying realization dawned upon him.
âPike! Youâre a liar!â someone shouted through the mist. âAre you sure heâs just a Platinum Archduke?â
âThis doesnât make sense? He shouldnât be striking down our teammates so effortlessly!â
âCould he be part of the king class?â
âNo way! We donât even know if it exists or not!â
âNo matter what, heâs definitely stronger than the average Platinum Archduke!â
âWeâre no match for him! Retreat!â
Zeke chuckled coldly, âThink you can get away with killing my friends?â
Die!
The battle raged on.
Their conversations sent shivers down Pikeâs spine.
Zeke might already have been one step away, from reaching the king class.
