Chapter 617,
Chapter 159. Battle of the Kings (4)
Kaio didn’t answer and stared at Jin with cold eyes for a while.
“When it’s our turn to fight, as brothers. Let Brother Jin give you lessons worthy of being engraved in your bones.”
“You have such a lifelike look on your face and you say that you are brothers. Looking back, it seemed that the brothers of the King of the Ten Warriors did not like me from before.”
“Brother Jean!”
“What are you talking about? Excessive! How the hell do you look at the brothers of the Ten Kings…!”
A few members of the Myeongwang family who were watching were frightened and shouted.
Even Garmund opened his eyes wide in surprise.
“Do you think I am wrong, brothers? When I was handed down Sigmund by Brother Tushin, I don’t remember being congratulated by Brother Siftuwang. Besides, now you dare to denigrate my victory in front of everyone.”
There were a few more people who didn’t congratulate them at the time, but Jin deliberately spoke as Kaioman did.
“That’s because the 12 brothers were angry with the 8 brothers…”
“If you were really angry with the 8 brothers, the 12 kings shouldn’t have talked about diapers. It is a word that clearly reveals how the brothers of the King of the Ten Battles have always thought of me. Besides, the brothers of the Twelve Kings fought with all their heart. But why are the brothers of the King of Ten Battles talking as if they can’t beat me?”
The Myungwang clan could not immediately refute Jin’s words. Jin quickly continued talking to prevent the brothers from attacking and entering.
“Also, even the reason why the brothers of the King of the Ten Kings just came forward to cause trouble had nothing to do with my honor.”
“Why do you think so?”
“The 10-king brothers assumed that the 8-fighting brothers had lost to me deliberately, so they expressed their anger. But what did you say right after that?”
Jin looked around at his brothers once.
“Even so, are you all the great fighters of the Myungwang clan? This was it. If I had been the brother of the King of the Ten Kings, I would have said it differently. Fighting like that is an insult to Brother Jin. Shouldn’t it be the priority to take care of the brothers who have never participated in the intentional defeat, rather than the honor of the fighting kings?”
Silence passed.
Jin deliberately spoke more sarcastically, but there was nothing wrong with it.
To put a wedge in the atmosphere, Jin met Kaioh’s eyes again.
“Brother of the Ten Kings. I want to say this one last time. Brothers, don’t tarnish the honor of the great Myeongwang family. Just now, the brother insulted the Paltuwang brothers and me just by guessing, and assaulted the brother. The image of us that I’ve seen since becoming brothers’ brothers was definitely far from this. Disappointing.”
“Brother Jin, stop now. The eight-two brothers and the ten-two brothers only made mistakes. But isn’t it too harsh to assume that the brothers of the King of the Ten Battles hated the Jin brothers from before?”
Jin shook his head at Baltirock’s words.
“I, like the brothers of the 12 kings, have only guessed at the psychology of the brothers of the 12 kings. And I’ve never been wrong. See you in our Daejeon, brothers of the King of Ten Battles.”
As soon as Jin turned around and left the main hall, Tantel hurriedly chased after him and threw herself to the ground.
“Brother Jean! What are you doing? Have you already forgotten everything I told you?”
“It was on purpose.”
“what?”
“It was necessary to stimulate the fighting spirit of the brothers. Seeing how the Faltuwang brothers lost to me, I think I needed something like this at least once from the beginning.”
“Huh, tell me in detail.”
“Okay, just know Brother Tantel. Promise on the honor of Brother Tushin and all brothers.”

After that day, the atmosphere of Lapla Rosa changed.
First of all, gambling on jewel stocks has disappeared.
Jeweler gambling is virtually everyone’s entertainment, with no one victimized.
Both the other person and the loser ended up sharing the gem wine used for gambling and laughing and chatting.
Everyone is just trying to get a feel for it. Even this kind of entertainment is possible only when Jin comes and makes Lapla Rosa’s time flow.
With the disappearance of jewel stock gambling, the laughter of the Myungwang family who naturally engage in the Battle of Kings also disappeared.
Even if they spray each other with speculation and push the opponent to the brink of killing them, the Battle of Kings fundamentally pursues goodwill competition.
It wasn’t like that now.
An invisible faction was created like it was before the era of peace between the fighting gods.
The side that Jin had to admit that he had already been pointed out as the successor to the commitment and the side that that alone was not enough.
The former is just a brother who loves Jin, and the position is that we must support him unconditionally, while the latter put forward the rationale that a strict examination is needed now that the situation has changed.
“I don’t know if we have to stay locked up, but if we can get out, the competition for the succession of the Tushin brothers must be certain.”
“That’s right, that’s a good thing for Brother Jin as well. If the successor of Tushin is not a person that everyone has no choice but to acknowledge, our Myeongwang clan will eventually become weak. That’s why you can’t go out and directly help Brother Jin.”
“Brothers are talking strange things! The Jin brothers were hand-picked by the Tushin brothers. Are you doubting Brother Tushin’s eyes?”
“No. At that time, we were in a situation where there was no hope that we could go out on royalties. As the Tushin brothers, of course, they had no choice but to choose the Jin brothers.”
“gibberish!”
“If that’s not the case, why did the brothers Tusin just leave when the brothers of the King of the Ten Battles fought in the 7th war? It must be because it is not right to push the Jin brothers forcibly like the King of Arms. It could have looked weird if the Tushin brothers stepped forward.”
“That is an insult to Brother Tushin. And since when did the Battle of the Kings become a competition to determine the successor of the Tushin brothers?”
“It has always been implicitly. Most of the final winners of the Battle of Kings became the next god of war.”
“Damn brothers! In my eyes, it’s just a meaningless fight. Does that mean that our love for each other is only this? Are you going to test Brother Jin, who has already been designated as the successor? It’s embarrassing to see Brother Jin fighting against each other for just that reason!”
“The arm eventually bends inward. I’m sure there are brothers who think of Brother Jin as a rolled stone, right? I don’t know grace…!”
“Brother Shaku, don’t talk like that. No one thinks so!”
“That’s something you don’t know. To be honest, I think the brothers of the Ten Kings are looking at the Jin brothers that way. Am I the only one who saw the King of the Ten Kings laugh as if they were laughing when the Jin brothers lost their second game in a row this time?”
2 consecutive losses.
Jin was defeated by Palem in the 12th war and by Dalpir in the 17th war.
Unlike when he beat Tetto and Garmund, he suffered horribly.
“In addition, the three fighting brothers and the six fighting brothers also felt quite emotional when dealing with the Jin brothers. It means that even after winning the game, he did not finish it in one shot. If you truly care for Brother Jin, can you do that? Also, the two brothers are very close to the brothers of the ten kings.”
“We, the Myeongwang family, are all close, and they speculate again!”
“Even if the two Tuwang brothers intentionally made Brother Jin suffer, it would have been to enlighten them as Tuwangs. And whatever the reason, Brother Jin was defeated. It means that he is further removed from the qualifications to be the heir to the Tushin brothers.”
“Did you say that, Brother Mouka? Coincidentally, we are included in today’s battle against ordinary warriors. Would you like to see the opinion of the person who won there be correct?”
“Hey, is it going to come out that way? I have no intention of backing down. Have no regrets!”
With each passing day, the conflict between the Myeongwang clan was deepening. To the point where I wonder if they were the ones who lived so peacefully and ideally until just a short time ago.
Those who watched while standing as neutral as possible seemed to be standing on thin ice every day.
It hasn’t collapsed yet, but if the opportunity comes at any time, it won’t be strange if everyone explodes.
“Oh my God… I didn’t think there would be such childish conflicts, at least in our time. Aren’t they all ashamed of their dead brothers? How could this be?”
Belize, who was watching the brothers from afar, touched his forehead. She was the person who welcomed and cared for Jin the most from the beginning, but now she is neutral because she is afraid that the conflict will escalate.
“Doesn’t Brother Oto and Brother Tushin say anything else?”
Belize asked Boras, who was sitting next to him.
Boras shrugged and nodded.
“Are you all not wanting to look at me, or are you thinking about something? Outside of battle, everyone just lingers and plays.”
“I’m crazy. At this rate, if the Jin brothers meet the Situ King brothers, it seems like four months will happen…”
The battle between Jin and Kai-O in the 22nd War was right around the corner.
Jin is still recovering from the injuries he suffered from his last defeat, and Kaio is already in a state where he can fight to his full potential even after fighting more battles than that.
“…The brothers of the Ten Kings don’t seem to care. He said he had a grudge.”
Conflict is an oil barrel, and the battle between the two is a ember.
All the members of the Myungwang family predicted Kaioh’s landslide victory, and they were aware that the division between the factions would deepen after that.
Either of them should step back and put an end to this conflict, but Jin and Kaio never seemed willing to apologize to each other.
“Haha, wouldn’t the brothers of the King of Ships kill the brothers of Jin?”
“You can’t do something crazy like that! I’m just angry. What’s wrong with the Chiltuwang brothers? Do you not believe in the brothers of the Ten Kings? There’s no way this would cause brothers to kill each other.”
“Damn I don’t know. The image you showed that day was just like watching the King of the Ten Kings in the past when they were crazy.”
When Kaio was at his peak.
Belize and Boras clearly remembered what Caio was like at that time.
At that time, Kaio was ready to cross the line at any time.
Like this, everyone is worried and looking forward to it.
Time arrived at the day of the Great War between Jin and Kaioh without solving anything.
All the members of the Myungwang clan gathered on the main hall and watched Jin and Kai-O with bated breath.
Ban, as always, had a calm face that could not read his emotions.
“Finally meeting the King of Ten Brothers.”
Kaioh nodded at Jin’s words. Kaio only replied in a cold voice.
“If you think you are going to die, scream for help. Otherwise, an accident might happen.”
