King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer-Chapter 1032 - 920: Setting Rules
Chapter 1032: Chapter 920: Setting Rules
Joe Ga was still a little confused when he received the ’Comet’ transmission on the boat...
"’Comet,’ what’s going on with you all?"
"Boss, we ran into ’Silt.’ I’m not very familiar with him...
Hmm... We’re currently hunting down a mercenary squad. Boss, can you get ’Silt’ to cooperate with us?
Those Mud People Tribe members seem like locals, they should be able to..."
Joe Ga caught the frustration in ’Comet’s tone and laughed loudly, saying, "You want ’Silt’ to cooperate with you? I bet you’ll get the short end of the stick as soon as you meet."
’Comet’ sighed heavily, and said, "I already got the short end!
But Boss, this time the enemies are unusual—there are more than twenty of them. The Ferryman and Night Tiger are struggling against them.
If they weren’t seemingly searching for something, we might not have even discovered them."
Joe Ga immediately thought of the owner of that severed hand and chuckled, "I didn’t expect those mercenaries to still have a sense of loyalty...
What a coincidence!"
’Comet’ was still confused and curiously asked, "Boss, what do you mean by that?"
Joe Ga chuckled and replied, "The Mud People Tribe probably has one of their people. Those mercenaries are likely trying to rescue him.
I found a severed hand in a fish’s stomach, and ’Silt’ said the guy might still be alive. Check it out for me. If there’s a survivor, set up a trap and get all of those people inside it.
Stop always thinking you’re invincible; ’Silt’ and his lot are the real masters of this territory. Just work well with him!
Remember, get me a few survivors this time. South Africa isn’t my turf; I need sufficient justification, and I need to figure out G.I.D.’s internal division structure before sending you guys in to capture people."
After saying this, Joe Ga thought for a moment, then switched channels and called, "’Silt,’ look after Night Tiger and the Ferryman. They’re definitely better fighters than the Mud People Tribe. Bring me back a few survivors—I’ll be waiting at the designated location..."
’Silt,’ speaking in a raspy voice, replied, "Got it, Boss!
I’ll take care of these guys..."
After ending the communication, ’Silt’ looked at the annoyed ’Comet,’ and said, "Get your people to follow me; we’ll take a shortcut."
’Comet’ reluctantly informed the others, then looked at ’Silt’ and said, "Boss said ’cooperation,’ right?
It’s not that I don’t want to follow your orders—it’s just we..."
’Silt’ waved his hand dismissively and said, "I understand. You have your own habits.
Follow me later. We have one day to get to know each other, and then I’ll tell you what you need to do."
’Comet’ let out a long sigh of relief. He wasn’t overly proud—he just felt responsible for his team.
He knew that one-on-one in the jungle, he definitely wasn’t a match for ’Silt,’ but that didn’t mean he fully trusted the old creep’s command skills.
This setup seemed fine!
Looking at ’Silt’ moving unhurriedly, ’Comet’ said, "Then let’s move quickly. The enemy shouldn’t be far from us...
If possible, we should circle ahead of them."
’Silt’ meticulously touched up his makeup and then shot a glance at ’Comet’...

"Don’t rush..." freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Joe Ga sat at the stern of the boat, playing with his fishing rod, trying to attract the attention of some big fish in the river...
He glanced at Qiao Liang beside him, who seemed to have ants in his pants, and laughed, saying, "Rushing won’t help. It’ll take two days to reach the destination from here.
No matter what ’Silt’ and his group achieve in the end, we won’t see the results until two days later."
Qiao Liang, restless, shifted uncomfortably and asked, "Brother, do you think someone would deliberately release a virus?
What’s the point? The jungle residents in Africa don’t even have money for medicine..."
Joe Ga shook his head slightly and replied, "But as long as the virus has a source and spreads to places where people have money, it won’t trigger a detailed investigation.
Africa is the best source for terrifying viruses because the people here can’t explain what happened.
Maybe a whole village dies off, and they still don’t understand why."
Qiao Liang picked up on the frightening conclusion from his brother’s words and widened his eyes, saying, "How is that possible?"
Joe Ga waved his hand dismissively and said, "Nothing is impossible. ’Creating demand’ is the ultimate marketing tactic and the scariest aspect of capitalism.
They only care about money. With demand, they can easily make money!
It’s like how businesses tell girls that marriage is sacred, and they need a wedding dress and a diamond ring...
Suddenly fabric becomes valuable...
And diamonds—those transparent pieces of carbon—become valuable too...
It’s just that these people use more direct means!"
As he spoke, Joe Ga seemed to recall something and said with a hint of mockery, "In the eyes of many people, ordinary folks aren’t even considered human.
Calling them ’chives’ isn’t an exaggerated insult—it’s reality!
Xiao Liang, don’t become a ’chive,’ but when you wield the scythe, don’t harvest too ruthlessly either."
Qiao Liang frowned and said, "Brother, I wouldn’t..."
Joe Ga sneered and said, "If you succeed in farming in Brazil and have millions of tons of grain...
Others raise prices, and you won’t raise them?
If you don’t follow the price hikes, the giant corporations will sanction you. Your farm will face protests, environmental activists will object, and government departments will investigate you...
Can you withstand it?
During WWII in Germany, and the breadlines in the Soviet Union before its collapse...
You think the grain merchants had no grain?
They call this market dynamics—you think you can fight against market dynamics alone?"
Qiao Liang lowered his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "I can’t fight market dynamics, but I can fight those who create them!
I can act according to my conscience, doing things my own way."
Joe Ga looked at the stern, even slightly fierce expression of Qiao Liang and burst out laughing, saying, "You hit on the key!
Sometimes we can’t solve the problem, but we can solve the people who create the problem!
But everything depends on whether you have enough capability and the confidence to avoid being sanctioned.
Killing a person is easy!
If I wanted to, I could even kill the President of the United States—it’s just that I can’t afford the consequences.
Xiao Liang, I’m not asking you to become an assassin because your battlefield is the civilized world...
When you face an unsolvable issue, find the key person...
Solving problems from the ’person’ level is much easier than combating ’systems’ or ’rules.’
If the creator of the ’systems’ or ’rules’ faces scrutiny, the structures they represent will also face scrutiny.
If you’re clean, doing good in the world, you can expose everything about yourself to public examination and ensure that your opponent must face you on fair terms.
And in such cases, you can be ’invincible!’
The benevolent are invincible!"
Qiao Liang listened and said to Joe Ga, "So you’re invincible in Africa!"
Joe Ga shrugged and said, "Not all of Africa, but definitely in Central Africa!
My record is cleaner than anyone else’s, and I sit sturdier than them...
I dare to show my entire background openly, but others don’t dare!
Unless they’re ready to tear off the mask and show the world their true nature, I am ’invincible!’
These people established a set of rules and created the ’right’ standards.
But I have Princess Amina, I have Princess Charlene, I have the charity halo, so I choose to defeat them within their own rules.
The local guys who can’t even figure out the rules don’t have bigger fists than me.
If I’m not the boss, who is?"
Qiao Liang listened and curiously said, "So you always intended to do good, and Jia Liang Trade was something you planned long ago, right?"
Joe Ga rubbed his face, feeling his skin still wasn’t thick enough, so he smiled and said, "Not really. At first, I simply wanted to find someone powerful to back me...
Picking a solid boss always requires paying protection fees—I just didn’t expect the result to resonate so well for you..."
While the two brothers were conversing, Joe Ga’s radio suddenly buzzed with Dorian’s voice...
"Boss, come to the foredeck; something happened ahead, and King Kong is furious..."
Joe Ga heard this, abandoned his fishing rod, and quickly strode to the foredeck...
He saw Ayu gripping the railing tightly, letting out a low growl of fury. Feeling tense, Joe Ga approached and followed her gaze into the distance...
About 300 meters away on the riverbank, some locals painted in garish colors were dancing around a wizard...
Two women clutching babies were forced by several men to kneel on the ground, crying loudly.
As the wizard finished his ritual and pulled out a small knife, heading toward the women, their expressions became increasingly terrified...
Just as Joe Ga was about to draw his pistol to fire a warning shot, Ayu suddenly roared and dashed to the machine gun, pulling the bolt and slamming the M2’s trigger...
"Bang bang bang bang..."
A string of bullets struck the riverbank, kicking up muck and water and scaring the locals. The knife-wielding wizard was startled and fell down...
Joe Ga looked at Ayu’s red eyes. He activated his communicator and shouted, "Don’t just stand there—move closer—
Bring your guns; let’s see what these people are up to..."
Ayu heard her boss’s orders, clenched her fists, walked over, and said, "Boss, they were going to kill those women..."
"Why?"
Ayu slammed the railing hard, making the entire stretch vibrate with a hum, then lowered her head and said, "Because those women gave birth to stillborn babies. They believe the women are cursed.
Recently, this kind of thing has been happening a lot—a lot..."
Joe Ga instantly thought of the Zika virus’s effects on fetuses and Ayu’s past experience...
She had suffered abuse after giving birth to a stillborn baby due to a difficult labor, then killed her ex-husband’s family before going on the run.
Looking at Ayu’s bloodshot eyes, Joe Ga patted her on the back and said, "What do you want to do? Kill them all?
No matter what, I’ll support you!"
A seemingly straightforward Ayu suddenly had tears well up in her eyes. She looked at Joe Ga and said, "Boss, I can’t kill enough! There’s no end to it..."
Joe Ga grinned, saying, "Even if you can’t kill enough, we’ll break the wizard’s legs, carve new rules into his chest, and use it to warn others...
If something like this happens again, we’ll come for them!"
With that, Joe Ga pulled out a knife and placed it in Ayu’s hand, speaking coldly, "Ayu, this is order!
Order born of blood and tears, nourished by pain!
If you want it, then it exists!
I said so!"
