The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 398
The Watsons had long planned for this. All these years, they had only conducted legal businesses and had never involved
themselves with shady dealings.
This was the perfect opportunity.
The Watsons wanted a puppet, and Maximus was the perfect candidate.
As it’d be inappropriate for the rest of the Watsons to show themselves, Zavier was the right man for the job.
Zavier waved dismissively, declining to entertain the women in revealing clothes. He looked at Maximus and said, “I heard that
Thea’s brother, David, borrowed 800 million dollars worth of loans from you.”
“Yes, Mr. Watson. Do the Callahans have something to do with you?”
Zavier waved his hands casually. “No, I’d like you to apply pressure on them. It’s best if you could capture David so that the
Callahans are sent into a further panic. Feel free to do anything you want. As long as things don’t get out of control, the Watsons
will cover it up for you.”
“Understood.”

Maximus nodded. Zavier didn’t leave. He had some idea about the contemporary dynamics in Cansington. Due to the previous
incident regarding the Great Four, many underworld kingpins who had gone to the Cadens’ cemetery were scared out of their
wits by the ten-thousand-man army. After hurriedly washing their hands of the industry and going into hiding, the underworld was
thrown into disarray.
What he planned to do was to prop Maximus up as the new king of the underworld of Cansington.
He brought up the matter and came up with some suggestions for Maximus.
At the same time, in the Southern Plains...
James slept through the morning. He woke up in the afternoon starving.

After getting out of bed, he gobbled up his food. He was feeling less fatigued than before. In a conference room of a military
base, many notable generals of the Southern Plains gathered.
At their forefront was James.
Even though he had resigned from his post, he’d always be the only commander-in-chief in the hearts and minds of the generals
and the Black Dragon army. With a single word, they’d go through hell and high water for him.
Levi stood up and reported, “Commander-in-chief, the envoys of the twenty-eight nations have arrived in the Southern Plains.
They are now gathered in front of Pallet’s Town consulate general, demanding we release the captives.” “Release them?”
James narrowed his eyes. “Not a chance in hell. In accordance with international practice, demand them to pay their ransom for
us to release them-A million for a common soldier; 10 billion for a general; and 5 billion for a lieutenant. In addition to that,
increase the sum tenfold. Pay up, and we’ll release them. If not, we’ll execute them all.” “Understood.”
Levi nodded.
James instructed, “Levi, as I’ve resigned from my post, it wouldn’t be appropriate for me to show myself. I’ll leave the
negotiations to you. Bring along Henry and the generals and lieutenants of the twenty-eight nations to Pallet Town’s consulate
general. If they don’t pay the ransom, execute the captives.”
“Yes, sir!”
“Oh, by the way...” Levi was reminded of something. He said, “Rumors are spreading on the internet that you’ve died on the
battlefield at Mt. Thunder Pass.”
“Oh?”
James cocked his eyebrows.
He had been conducting an operation on Henry the moment he got back. He had only woken up just now. As such, he was
unaware of the rumors being spread.
After a moment’s silence, he said, “Since the news has gotten out, order the Black Dragon army to officially announce that the
Black Dragon had died a heroic death on the battlefield at Mt. Thunder Pass in the Southern Plains after being pursued by an
army of a hundred thousand men.”

Levi froze, “What do you mean?” James gestured casually at him, “Just do as I say.” “Understood.” Levi did not linger in the
conference room for long. He quickly turned to leave. After leaving, he immediately gave the order, “Bring all enemy generals
and lieutenants out of their cells and escort them to the consulate general at Pallet Town. At the same time, bring the Black
Shadow General. Remember, his condition is currently unstable. So be mindful of that.” After giving the orders, Levi headed
toward Pallet Town.
