Chapter 808 A Sway of Allegiance
Before he could finish his sentence, the man instantly sensed something wrong with what he was
saying. Thus, he quickly covered his mouth in embarrassment. Although everyone else felt the
same way as he did, none of them had the guts to speak their minds. Because of that, when they
heard someone saying that in front of Baron, they were prompted by their first instinct to keep their
mouths shut out of fear.
With a darkened look on his face, Baron said in a deep voice, "Kingsley is the one who had this all
arranged, so he''ll be here soon!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately felt relieved, their faces written with expressions of
confidence and reassurance. Nheless, neither of them had the courage to say anything else.
Meanwhile, Baron, who noticed everyone''s reactions, waved his hand in frustration. "Alright, stop
standing here like statues. Now, head over to the underground boxing ring and get ready for the
Stewarts'' arrival!"
"Yes, Sir!" The fighters responded and immediately headed toward the basement.
As soon as everyone left, Baron frowned and turned his attention to Wendell. "Wendell, what do you
think about the things they said?"
Knowing what Baron meant, Wendell chose his words carefully and replied, "It''s not their fault,
Boss. When Mr. Nicholson defeated the two young fighters that the Stewarts sent on the stage, you
got so happy after making a fortune that you cheered for him and even called him invincible.
Because of that, our men might have thought that was a sign of subservience from you to Mr.
Nicholson, which was probably the reason they started admiring him."
Upon hearing Wendell''s analysis, Baron frowned in a worried manner. "If this continues, I''m afraid
our men will lose faith in us." Without Baron''s alliance, Kingsley never considered himself a force to
be reckoned with in the underworld. Thus, Baron had nothing to worry about, but things seemed to
be different now as Kenny and Cassius hade together to build a new force. More importantly,
their leader was the man—Kingsley—himself.
Once their alliance grew strong, Kingsley would have the former best strategist, who used to work
for the Cole Gang and Nightfall Gang''s former leader, on his side. For that, if Kingsley made his
presence known along with the two most notable figures from the underworld, it would help Kingsley
attract many people to join him, not to mention that the members of the ck Fist Gang greatly
admired him.
My people would just leave for him once he raises his hand, wouldn''t they? By then, what would
that make me? A figurehead? Baron thought to himself worriedly.
Upon hearing Baron''s concerns, Wendell looked around him and spoke with a lowered voice. "Boss,
if I may, I''d like to put this frankly to you. Once Mr. Nicholson''s force grows strong and bes
established, all the other small factions will inevitably be taken in by him. By then, he is going to
stand up to Jarett Cole. The way I see it, it''s pretty obvious that he wants to reign the entire Sris
Province''s underworld along with Advisor Shane and Mr. White. Therefore, instead of worrying that
our men would join him, you might as well think about the role we could undertake when we join him
once he establishes himself as the leader of Sris'' underworld."
Baron''s expression changed when he heard that. "Are you saying it''s only a matter of time before
we be his henchmen?"
Wendell nodded in response. "Jarett Cole may be strong, but if the Seven Legends unite, I believe
they can still match him in power and influence, which is why the underworld bes a ce full
of powerful figures. Nheless, the same cannot be said for Mr. Nicholson. After all, he possesses
the Tanner Family''s Northern Draken Order and the service of his two loyal and talented sidekicks,
Advisor Shane and Mr. White. Therefore, if he unifies the underworld, he will surely bring all the
forces together and make all the other mob leaders serve him."

Baron became absorbed in his thoughts. "So, you''re trying to say that I can still be the leader
of my own gang if I join Jarett Cole, but if Kingsley rules the underworld, the ck Fist Gang and I
will be his servants. Right?"
Noticing what Baron was trying to suggest, Wendell quickly tried to dissuade his boss from rushing
to a bad decision. "You must think twice, Boss. Mr. Nicholson is a righteous and honorable man,
and Jarett Cole can neverpare to that.
"What do you mean?" Baron looked at Wendell in puzzlement. "Are you telling me it''s better to let
the ck Fist Gang pledge allegiance to Kingsley than stand by Jarett Cole''s side?
