Chapter 4 The Advantage Lies With Me!
Chapter 4 The Advantage Lies With Me!
At the beginning of the conflict, no one noticed Zhang Guohao, but he quickly became "outstanding".
Because there is simply no one who can rival Zhang Guohao.
Zhang Guohao's simple spiked club was fast and ruthless, each strike aimed at the top of the head of the person in front of him, and he made sure the force was just right, driving in the spikes made of iron nails, while the wooden club barely made contact with the opponent.
Given Zhang Guohao's strength, if he were to exert his full power, the wooden stick in his hand would break in no time.
This way, the simple spiked club can be used to its fullest potential, using hard iron nails to tear off chunks of flesh from the enemy.
Under such pain, no one could withstand the blow and would "automatically" jump into the sea, following Zhang Guohao's force.
As for dodging Zhang Guohao's attack and then counterattacking him?
Stop kidding me, do you even know what a transmigrator is? You won't give me a system, or at least some other cheat-like ability?
The changes in his physique and the increase in his physical strength alone have allowed Zhang Guohao to stand at the pinnacle of human potential.
If the world were any better, Zhang Guohao could have won several world championships as an athlete.
In the blink of an eye, Cheung Kwok-ho took down four or five thugs from the number gang, before most people could even react.
The thugs on the other side of the number gang thought they were rushing in from this direction and had already broken through!
Only those who reached Zhang Guohao realized what terrifying thing their predecessors had faced.
When Boss Huo and Big Mouth Chen noticed Cheung Kwok-ho, what they saw was Cheung Kwok-ho alone, forcing all the thugs on the entire deck to retreat, and some thugs, with nowhere left to retreat, were even driven into the sea by Cheung Kwok-ho.
Zhang Guohao's face remained calm and expressionless. He simply carried a makeshift spiked club and walked steadily on the plank, rushing towards Da Kou Chen with each step faster than the last.
Zhang Guohao had noticed it long ago: Da Kou Chen had been standing at the back, jumping up and down and cursing, while giving orders from the very beginning of the fight.
To shoot a man, shoot his horse first; to capture a thief, capture his king first. If Zhang Guohao wants to make a name for himself, he has to take down the fiercest one and prove that he is even fiercer than his opponent!
"Hey, you've got some nerve, coming after me!"
Big Mouth Chen handed the teapot to his underling, picked up the machete beside him, and walked towards Zhang Guohao.
Big Mouth Chen didn't think that the thug with the wooden stick could compare to his machete, nor did he think that the unknown nobody could beat him.
As for why those subordinates who were forced into the water couldn't stop Zhang Guohao, it's because they were too incompetent. How could they compare to a seasoned expert like himself?
However, seeing the opponent's aggressive demeanor, Big Mouth Chen felt this was a great opportunity. Someone this skilled must be a key figure on their side; defeating him would severely damage their morale. Regardless of how Boss Huo found such a powerful fighter, he was just a stepping stone for Big Mouth Chen!
Similarly, Da Kou Chen, who was also striding forward steadily, blocked Zhang Guohao at the side of the boat. This position was very advantageous for Da Kou Chen.
Once Da Kou Chen and Zhang Guohao reach a stalemate, Da Kou Chen can retreat to his boat at any time and let his underlings take over.
If Da Kou Chen is no match for Zhang Guohao and falls backward, the area he lands on will be larger than Zhang Guohao's. If Zhang Guohao falls, there's a two-thirds chance he'll be pushed into the water!
Feeling he had the upper hand, Chen rushed forward and slashed at Zhang Guohao with a powerful, split-hit strike. This strike blocked Zhang Guohao's path. Zhang Guohao either had to withstand the blow head-on or dodge left and right, or he would basically fall into the sea.
And to withstand this blow head-on? Ha! This knife of mine is specially thickened; it could bend even a steel pipe, let alone a wooden stick!
Feeling confident and believing that my advantage lay in my large mouth, I unsurprisingly failed.
He thought he was fast enough? Zhang Guohao was even faster. While Da Kou Chen's "Splitting Mount Hua" move was still in mid-air, Zhang Guohao's simple spiked club, with its iron nails, had already pierced his hand. Before Da Kou Chen could react, Zhang Guohao exerted force, and Da Kou Chen, in pain, involuntarily fell forward.
Zhang Guohao's left hand was even faster. He boldly grabbed the back of Da Kou Chen's machete with his left hand and forcefully snatched the machete from his opponent's hand.
Then, he casually stabbed Da Kou Chen in the back of the neck, and with a little force, threw Da Kou Chen, who was pinned down by the machete, into the sea along with the knife.
Even though it's a clandestine fight right now, we can't openly provoke death. Even if everyone knows that once someone goes into the water, they're basically doomed unless they're an exceptionally good swimmer and manage to swim back.
But this pretense has to be maintained, just in case someone goes around spreading rumors.
"Holy crap, the boss's dead!"
"Go! Avenge our boss!"
"Yeah, avenge the boss! I'm going to get the weapons!"
"Damn, he's boarded! Don't just stand there, turn! Turn!"
"It's too late! Someone get him off the cliff! He's charging at me!"
As soon as Big Mouth Chen was thrown into the sea, the ship he was on immediately descended into chaos.
Regardless, Big Mouth Chen was the most capable fighter among this group, but he was killed in the first exchange!
How can the difference between people be so great?
Ignoring the panic of the enemy, Zhang Guohao went up and overturned them one by one. Since these people didn't use firearms, they couldn't react to his attack at all.
"Big Mouth Chen has fallen into the water! Shout, Big Mouth Chen has fallen into the water!"
Boss Huo had been keeping a close eye on Zhang Guohao. Unbeknownst to him, Boss Huo had also placed his hopes on this handsome young man, hoping that this young man could create a miracle.
Now it seems I was right!
As Boss Huo shouted, all his men also shouted loudly.
"Big Mouth Chen has fallen into the water!"
"Big Mouth Chen has fallen into the water!"
"Big Mouth Chen has fallen into the water!"
A series of shouts made everyone around realize that Da Kou Chen had fallen into the water!
Everyone knows that in this situation, falling into the water is a euphemism for being drowned.
"Damn it! Retreat! Retreat! The boss's dead, get out of here!"
"I saw it! There's a tough guy over there who took down the boss!"
"Won't we get punished by the boss if we go back?"
"What do you mean by punishment? You really want to risk your life? It's only a few dozen yuan a month, why are you risking your life like that!"
With the supervisor, Big Mouth Chen, who had been weighing heavily on his head, being taken down, the remaining people all began to consider quitting.
It wasn't just because Big Mouth Chen was taken down and they didn't get enough benefits; it was also because Boss Huo and his gang were too resilient, and each of them was much more desperate than the others.
Even though the thugs from the Number Gang used sharp weapons like machetes, while the other side mostly used wooden sticks, the other side was still willing to fight to the death.
With Boss Huo personally leading the team, his veteran subordinates holding grudges, and the arrival of the formidable Zhang Guohao, the temporary workers were all working like they were on steroids, bursting into action.
In the blink of an eye, the number thugs came and went just as quickly.
Zhang Guohao, however, remained on that ship, continuing to throw people overboard.
