The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 721
Under everyone’s gaze, James pulled out the Blade of Justice.
He looked at the Blade of Justice and pointed it at the Emperor.
“What?”
The masses were shocked by his actions.
The Emperor was stunned. His heart palpitated as cold sweat beaded his forehead.
After a few seconds, he calmed down and shouted, “What is the meaning of this, James? You‘re pointing your weapon at me.
Are you implying that you want to kill me?”
James smiled. “Emperor, you‘re overthinking this. I was just casually waving it around.”
He was holding up the Blade of Justice, which weighed more than five kilograms. His arm had gone weak, and his face gradually
turned pale as beads of sweat formed on his forehead. Wielding the Blade of Justice took all his strength.
He reluctantly put it down.
Many sighed in relief. Henry looked at everyone again. “I‘ve said everything I needed to.”
After speaking, he walked to an empty seat below and sat down.
The jurors in the higher seats began to debate.
“What should we do about this?”
“The Black Dragon has the Blade of Justice and has the authority to enforce the law to kill anyone who evades legal
punishment.”
“He accepted the money for the sake of the people.”
“Although he is guilty, it isn‘t an unforgivable crime.”

Hearing the discussion, the Emperor became anxious. He hurriedly persuaded, “James committed countless crimes and should
not be given impunity. It‘s a mistake to claim that he sympathizes with the people of Sol. A country must stand by its laws and
policies. Accepting bribes and misappropriating funds under the guise that he was serving the people is inexcusable,”
The Blithe king looked at the Emperor and asked, “Then, what do you say his sentence should be?”
“I propose for him to be dismissed, demoted to a civilian, and for him to return the Blade of Justice to us,” said the Emperor.
“Yeah, I agree.”
“I agree that James‘ homicides were justifiable. However, it is a crime for him to accept bribes and misappropriate funds. As an
army commander, he should never have accepted the money. He should‘ve reported it to the state if he knew the masses were
in trouble so that the financial departments could allocate funds to support him.”
Many people voiced their agreement with the Emperor’s proposal.
The judges discussed the results for half an hour.
Ultimately, the Emperor stood up and announced, “James has possession of the Blade of Justice and the authority to enforce the
law. However, accepting bribes and misappropriating funds during his tenure violates the law. Sol shall not tolerate such actions.
Thus, he will be demoted to a civilian, and the Blade of Justice and his Black Dragon card will be confiscated.”
After the announcement, the Emperor looked at James and asked, “Do you have any objections, James? You may file an appeal
if you‘re dissatisfied with the sentence. The King of Sol will personally try you.”
James nodded and said weakly, “I accept the sentence.”
“Alright. Please return the Blade of Justice to the courthouse‘s main hall.”
James stood up with the Blade of Justice and slowly walked toward the courthouse‘s main hall with countless cameras pointed at
him.
There was a place for the sword at the front of the main hall. When the Black Dragon Army lacked a commander, the Blade of
Justice had no master and had always been safeguarded here.
James approached the place, turned around, and looked at the people behind him. His gaze stopped on the Emperor, and he
smiled. “One day, I‘ll come back here to pick up the Blade of Justice and take the lives of those who deserve to die.”

Hearing this, the Emperor‘s heart skipped a beat. He maintained a calm composure and thought to himself, ‘I‘m afraid you‘ll
never have the chance.
James put down the Blade of Justice. Then, he looked at the countless jurors and asked, “May I go now?” “Yes,” the Blithe King
replied.
James raised his legs and began to leave step by step.
Many cameras captured this scene.
James‘ back was slightly hunched, and he no longer had the appearance of a war god. Instead, he looked like an old man on the
brink of death. He walked out of the courthouse.
Many people were gathered outside.
These people came to witness James‘ sentence, but no one imagined that it would come to this result
Seeing the fatigue on James‘ face, everyone went silent. They used to see him as a dangerous tiger and a threat to society.
