Episode 791 Only he is worthy. (1)
“It’s the four trials….”
Mangeumdaebu muttered quietly in a slightly cracked voice.
It’s not normal.
Especially when you consider the impact the creation of this association will have on the powerhouse.
‘It’s dangerous work.’
Of course, as Jang Il-so said, a union may be necessary to fight against the political factions that are running rampant with their venom. However, if you think about it backwards, there is a high probability that the creation of the SPA will create a steadfast enemy for them.
That’s it.
At that moment, Jang Il-so scratched the datak with his fingertips. The shape of the central garden was drawn on the datak along the tip of the finger, which was drawn like a brush.
“This is the current power of the world. First of all, Gangbuk’s Gupailbang.”
Nine file rooms are scattered all over the world.
Considering the Hainan faction in Hainan Island in the South Sea, the Jeomchang faction in Yunnan, and the Kunlun faction at the end of Cheonghae, it may be unreasonable to limit the sphere of influence of the nine factions to Gangbuk.
But it cannot be said that it is completely wrong.
Because in the end, the center of the current nine factions is Shaolin and shamans. Since the two factions were centered around Hanam (河南) in Gangbuk and the surrounding areas were guarded by Jongnam joint openings, etc., the center of the old factions was clearly Hanam and also Gangbuk.
“And Cheon Woo-maeng in the west.”
“hmm.”
Brother Cheonmyeon’s face flinched slightly.
Although he really didn’t want to admit it, he couldn’t deny that Tianyu Meng was currently exerting enormous influence in the western part of the Central Plains.
‘It’s not even funny.’
In the west of the central plains, there are the Kunlun faction, the Jeomchang faction, the Ami faction, and the Qingcheng faction.
Of course, they are not gathered together like the old factions in Gangbuk, nor are they factions that actively participate in the affairs of the central region.
But even so, an old file room is an old file room. We cannot ignore Cheonwoo-maeng, who has built a solid sphere of influence while keeping those forces in check.
‘Jongnam’s fortune must have been great. To begin with, Jongnam was a sect located west of Hwasan. If Jongnam had survived, Cheonwoomaeng would have been impossible to even begin.’
Whether it was the volcano that caused Jong-nam to enter the gate, or whether Jong-nam stabbed a gap in the gate, it was clear that his resourcefulness was beyond average.
It was clearly visible in the eyes of Brother Cheonmyeon.
From the North Sea Ice Palace in the north to the Nanman Beast Palace below. It’s one long line.
‘If we can maintain that line until the end, one day, instead of the nine factions being one faction, the Cheonwoo Alliance may become a force that represents the world.’
However…
there are clearly a lot of anxiety factors.
“And what’s left.”
Percussion!
Jang Il-so stretched out his hand and hit Datak. The place his hand touched was none other than Gangnam.
“Gangnam.”
“….”
Gwan’s influence does not yet have much influence in Gangnam. Therefore, the factions gathered in Gangnam to escape the oppression of the old faction and the government.
“The key is the Yangtze River! If the factions in Gangnam can work together to protect the Yangtze River, they will not be able to move south. Then, first of all, we can firmly obtain the land in Gangnam.”
“Then it’s no different than before?”
“The world has changed.”
Wood clatter.
Jang Il-so grabs Datak. A handful of wood was torn out from his hand.
“Tianyu Meng brought together people who could not be related to each other. And the existence of the Cheonwoomaeng made the old factions that were fighting and keeping each other in check united again. Now, the world of people sticking their necks up and protecting only their own faction is over. “What remains now is which force will survive!”
“Hmm.”
“The world will be reorganized into three powers.”
Investigator Cheonmyeon laughed as if it was fun.
“The world is divided into three realms. “Do you feel like it resonates?”
“Shouldn’t we do that if we have to?”
“Cluck, click, click.”
After a bizarre laugh, he nodded.
“Well, that’s good. Because I decided to agree with the defeated army’s thoughts from the beginning. “If you look at the current situation, it is clear that if things continue like this, everyone will be ruined.”
When it comes to handling information and analyzing the situation, Haomen is the second most disappointing place in the world. The words that came out of Hao Wenjue’s mouth were definitely powerful.
Even the Black Dragon King seemed to be intrigued by those words.
“Are you planning to make the Yangtze River the center?”
“I can’t say it’s the center. But you could say it’s the most important place right now. If the Yangtze River is washed away, there will be no way to divide Gangnam and Gangbuk. The key is to firmly instill the perception that the two sides must endure enormous damage in order to cross the Yangtze River.”
“…You mean to rip off your arms, rip open your stomach, and eat the internal organs.”
The Black Dragon King pondered those words and smiled strangely.
Actually, there is nothing bad about him at all. In order for Gupa Ilbang to target Sapa in Gangnam, they must inevitably attack Surochae to open the way. If this continues, the first place to fail will be the Yangtze River Waterway.
Why would you refuse to take the initiative in such a situation and offer support?
“Hahahaha! Now this weird guy is finally saying something worth listening to. In that case, I will also join the Sapaeryeon! step!”
Flames fly from the Black Dragon King’s eyes.
“It would be better to abandon the idea of using the eighteen houses of the Yangtze River as a shield. If something like that happens, I will definitely cut off your heads and kill you.”
“It’s useless to worry. Because we also need the Yangtze River to live.”
Jang Il-so lightly waved his white hand and clearly expressed his intention.
Talk. Knock knock. Knock knock knock.
Mangeumdaebu, the last man left, was resting his chin on one hand and tapping the table with the other. It seemed like he was calculating profits and losses as he kept muttering something.
Took!
Godfather Mangeum frowned as he strongly tapped the datak with his index finger as if he had reached a conclusion.
“It doesn’t make sense.”
“The reason is?”
“Not enough.”
He crossed his arms and explained why.
“When there are over a hundred factions, the level of power is not very important. Because all kinds of circumstances come into play. But when those forces merge into two, the only question that remains is who is stronger.”
“….”
“Even if the four sects in Gangnam united and swallowed up all the smaller sects and merged them, their strength would not be enough. “If we’re not careful, we could fail sooner because of the alliance.”
Brother Cheonmyeon frowned and refuted.
“If you take advantage of the relationship between Cheon Woo-maeng and Gu Pail-bang….”
“Sounds like a dream. The center of Cheonwoomaeng is Sacheondanga and Volcano. It’s a political faction. No matter how bad their relationship is, if they are of the same political faction, they can join hands at any time. Even if they don’t join hands, they won’t attack each other while fighting Sapa.”
“….”
“If you don’t have the strength to stop the nine factions on your own, it will just be like jumping into the fire carrying a haystack. No trace remains. This is impossible without green forests. But hasn’t Greenlim already gone to Cheonwoomaeng?”
Jang Il-so nods his head loudly.
“That is reasonable.”
“hmm?”
To Jang Il-so’s surprisingly obedient attitude, Mangeum narrowed his eyes.
“Is there a way to make up for the lack of strength? Even if we attract all the schools in Gangnam, it wouldn’t be possible to replace Green Forest, right?”
“Of course it is.”
Jang Il-so shook his head a couple of times, then lifted his glass and took a sip.
widely.
Then he put down his drink and smiled meaningfully. Her red lips were wet and looked even more magical.
“If it’s Gangnam land, yes. But… there is no need to gather strength only in Gangnam.”
“…It’s not Gangnam?”
“Wouldn’t that be a sufficient answer?”
When Jang Il-so pointed to the back, everyone turned their heads with surprised faces.
‘who?’
‘I didn’t feel it?’
In particular, a look of astonishment that could not be hidden appeared on the faces of Master Cheonmyeon and Godfather Mangeum. I never thought there would be someone who could approach this distance without being caught by their senses.
“….”
There was someone standing in a dark corner where the light from the lamp could not reach.
The moment they saw him wrapped from head to toe in dark red blood-red long cloths, everyone’s spines went cold and their hair stood on end.
“…Who are you?”
“I am the blood palace lord.”
“Tongue blood palace?”
In the end, a cry of astonishment came out of the Black Dragon King’s mouth.
Blood Palace.
The most secret and mysterious place among Saewoeogung. The place where it is not even known where the headquarters is located is the blood palace.
Power and stealth.
A place where those two incredible characteristics are combined. The lord of the blood palace, who is said to be the most powerful among the five palaces, has appeared here.
“The main… palace…”
A creepy voice, as if someone was scraping a metal plate with a blade, came out from the darkness.
“All people…are of the same mind as the Ark…”
“….”
The Black Dragon King, the Great God of Mangeum, and the Heavenly Face Master looked at each other.
“…If the blood palace is together….”
“It’s a different story.”
When it comes to blood palaces, it is not inferior to Green Forest. No, if we were to measure its strength alone, it might be so strong that it cannot be compared to Green Forest.
Doesn’t the pressure that the blood palace lord is giving off right now prove that fact?
Mangeum Godfather quickly flicked the abacus in his head again.
‘There are already enough numbers anyway. What is lacking is the number of absolute experts. In that case, the blood palace is a much better option than the more numerous Nokrim.’
The calculation is over.
The corners of Godfather Mangeum’s mouth finally curled up.
“That’s enough. “Heukgwibo will share that goal with Sapaeryeon.”
“The Yangtze River Sib8chae will also join the Sapaeryeon.”
As everyone’s eyes turned to the blood palace lord, he also slowly nodded. As if there was no need to repeat what was said.
“The name is Sapaeryeon, but there are five sects….”
“Symbolism is important. “The blood palace lord doesn’t seem particularly dissatisfied.”
“More sects will gather under the flag of Sapaeryeon. “It would be better if it was not a four-view series, but a four-view series.”
widely. widely. widely. widely. widely.
Jang Il-so wordlessly placed five empty drinking glasses in front of me and began filling them.
“That’s a great decision.”
“step!”
At that moment, Mangeumdaebu lightly raised his hand.
“Before we share a glass, there is something we must make clear.”
“Please speak.”
“Who does the exercises?”
“….”
Everyone closed their mouths without answering.
“There is no point in maintaining the current system in the name of union. I don’t know if political factions can coexist in that way, but we can’t do it. “Clear coordination and a firm system are needed.”
“Hahahaha! That’s right. But there is no need to worry about that. “I will become your leader and guide you!”
“It’s too much for you. Black Dragon King. “Don’t come forward and stay put.”
“A thousand-face investigation! “Do you want to die right now?”
A loud voice erupted, but Brother Cheonmyeon ignored it and let out a crooked laugh.
“Information is power. “I am suitable because I know the circumstances of all clans.”
“Even if you have power, you can’t do anything if you don’t have money. The one who provides the money is the one who holds the power. is not it?”
“These…”
It was when the three people exchanged cold glances with each other.
“You don’t have to worry about that.”
Jang Il-so finished pouring the drink into his glass and shook his head lightly.
“Do you have any thoughts?”
“I, Jang Il-so, am the only one who can become the leader of the Sapaeryun.”
A flame burned brightly in the Black Dragon King’s eyes.
“This damn bastard… it was a trick in the end.”
“Claims need evidence.”
“I also know what areas will definitely benefit me.”
Jang Il-so smiled and pushed a glass of alcohol in front of everyone one by one.
“The Black Dragon King’s mastery is excellent, but his power of harmony is lacking. There will definitely be friction elsewhere. Moreover, the Black Dragon King cannot leave the Yangtze River. “If we have a regiment on the front line, won’t everything end the moment the front line is pushed back?”
“…Hmm.”
The Black Dragon King let out a sigh as he looked at the wine glass in front of him.
It was annoying, but it wasn’t wrong.
“Information is extremely important, but sometimes it can be harmful. “No one wants to follow someone who knows my weaknesses and secrets intimately.”
“…is this a fundamental problem? Tsk.”
Brother Cheonmyeon also accepted the glass of wine held out in front of him. He too had no choice but to agree with this statement.
“No one can ignore the power of money, but this place is a powerhouse. And being sensitive to profit means that the person involved can take care of his or her own personal gain. “Isn’t the leader of the alliance a suitable position for someone who can sacrifice his or her own interests for the sake of everyone?”
“…That’s the truth.”
Godfather Mangeum also nodded. When the interests of the alliance and the interests of the Black Demon were in conflict, he did not have the confidence to choose the former.
Jang Il-so picked up one of the two remaining drinking glasses and lightly threw it at the blood palace lord.
“It goes without saying that there are other factions.”
widely.
The blood palace lord who received the drink nodded silently.
“Not only that…”
Jang Il-so’s eyes twinkled with madness. Everyone who saw those eyes couldn’t help but flinch.
There was something about Jang Il-so, both of them who looked down on the world, that made even them sick of it. It was as if the initiative had already passed to him.
“Those who are confined to their own territory and only look at the path ahead cannot become Ryeonju. “The person who will become the leader of the Sapaeryun must be hungrier than anyone else, and because of that, he must have greater greed than anyone else.”
Jang Il-so’s hand grabbed the Gangbuk side of the map drawn on the data table.
Wood clatter.
Jang Il-so clenched his fist after tearing off the entire part. The shattered wood turned into powder and flew around.
“I just occupy Gangnam and stay in this barren place, pretending to be a king. I don’t have any thoughts about it. Because I covet that place. I want that place more than anyone else. Just looking at it makes me thirsty and hungry. “It is a hunger that will not be relieved even if you drink a thousand horses of wine and eat ten thousand seok of grain.”
“….”
“You share everything you can get from that land. Neither people nor money nor land mean anything to me. There’s only one thing I need. “To subdue everything in the world in the name of I, Jang Il-so.”
Everyone held their breath.
Jang Il-so’s eyes, overflowing with madness, proved that all that was not a lie.
“Only he is worthy.”
“….”
“Follow me. Then I will guide you. “Not to this smelly corner of Gangnam, but to Gangbuk, the center of the central region!”
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
Brother Cheonmyeon laughed and shook his head.
“I really can’t stand it. Master Hao-wen Wen-ju Cheon-myeon comes to see Lian-ju.”
As Master Cheonmyeon gave his hand, Greatfather Mangeum also sighed and nodded.
“That would be the most profitable path. Mangeumdaebu, the orb of the Black Demon Treasure, sees Yeonju.”
“…Damn it.”
The Black Dragon King didn’t seem to like it until the end, but he couldn’t back out once he had come this far.
“Don’t expect any respect from me.”
“of course.”
“…The Black Dragon King, the owner of the eighteen houses on the Yangtze River, accepts the defeated general Jang Il-so as the leader of the Sipae-ryeon!”
“Drink your glass.”
Jang Il-so raised his glass first, and everyone raised their glasses high in front of them.
“As of this time, we are brothers. “Booze for brothers! A sword for traitors!”
bang!
The drinking glasses clashed roughly in the air.
Eventually, everyone emptied their glasses at once.
Sapaeryeon.
Finally, the Safa Alliance that would turn the world upside down was born.
