Junior stepped out of the car and briskly walked over to the taxi. He glanced inside and saw no one, only two cell phones and Rosemary's purse scattered on the seat.

A surge of ice-cold rage erupted from him. There was no doubt that something had happened to the sisters!

"There's a surveillance camera over there. We should be able to track them!" Timothy looked around and spotted a surveillance camera not far away. He then took out his phone and dialed Fatty Jones's number, describing the situation.

"What!? Unbelievable!" Fatty Jones exclaimed. "Give me three minutes, I'll get the surveillance footage!"

"Hurry!" Timothy nodded and hung up the phone.

"Could it be one of the three major families?" Timothy asked as they got back into the car.

"Highly likely!" Junior's body exuded a murderous chill. "Rosemary has only been back in Eastoria for a few days after five years, and she's already being targeted. Apart from those three families, I can't think of anyone else!"

"But why?" Timothy asked again. "Did they find out something about those families?"

"I don't know!" Junior shook his head. "Let's find Rosemary first. If it's indeed one of them, then so be it!"

"Okay!" Timothy nodded. "Junior, don't worry too much. They shouldn't be in immediate danger. Otherwise, the other side wouldn't have just abducted them!"

Junior took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a drag, his eyes sharp.

Ring! Ring!

Three minutes later, Timothy's phone rang.

"Did you find anything?" Timothy pressed the answer button and asked in a deep voice.

"It's Leroy McCormick's men!" Fatty Jones's voice came through the phone, filled with anger. "I'll send you the address first. Talk later!"

"Okay!" Timothy nodded and hung up the phone.

Half a minute later, Fatty Jones's message came through. Timothy set up the navigation and stepped on the gas pedal.

Junior then dialed Fatty Jones's number again, putting it on speaker.

"Who are they?" the voice on the other end asked sharply.

"Leroy McCormick is the second-in-command in Eastoria's underworld, representing the local force," Fatty Jones responded.

"Mr. Eight's underling?" Junior continued to inquire.

"No!" Fatty Jones replied again. "Leroy McCormick and Mr. Eight have always been at odds, often having minor conflicts. Mr. Eight has wanted to eliminate him for a long time, but Leroy McCormick has the backing of Eastoria's major families, so Mr. Eight hasn't dared to make a big move."

"As expected!" Junior confirmed his suspicions upon hearing this.

"W... What do you mean?" Fatty Jones was puzzled.

"He kidnapped Rosemary on behalf of his backers!" Junior paused slightly before continuing, "Notify Mr. Eight to go to the destination immediately. We're delivering a special gift to him today!"

"Got it!" After a brief moment of confusion, Fatty Jones responded loudly. He naturally understood Junior's meaning. After today, there would be no more Leroy McCormick in Eastoria!

"That's it for now. We'll talk later if needed," Junior said, then hung up the phone.

"They're really asking for it!" Timothy angrily said as he drove.

"People who do evil deeds deserve no mercy!" Junior's tone was icy. "I was originally planning to let them live a little longer, but it seems they feel they've lived long enough!"

Meanwhile, about five or six kilometers from the taxi crash site, inside a private club.

In a luxurious private room on the third floor, Rosemary and Harley huddled together on the sofa, their faces filled with panic. Their clothes were disheveled, and they trembled in fear.

Facing them sat a man in his forties, with a fierce countenance exuding a bloodthirsty chill. He was none other than Leroy McCormick, the second-in-command of Eastoria's underworld. Behind Leroy McCormick stood four burly men, also notorious thugs.

"Tsk tsk, Mr. McCormick, these two sisters are really damn good-looking!" one of the men with a crew cut licked his dry lips and spoke.

"Of course, otherwise how could she be called the number one beauty of Eastoria!" another man responded. "I just didn't expect her sister to be so beautiful too. They're really a pair of top-notch beauties!"

"You bastards, what do you want?" Harley gritted her teeth and shouted, "I warn you, if you dare to mess around, my brother-in-law won't let you off!"

"Oh, you already have a brother-in-law? Is he very powerful? I'm so scared!" The man with the crew cut continued to eye the two sisters lasciviously, his eyes flashing with intense lust.

"Who are you people? Why did you kidnap us?" Rosemary took a deep breath, steadied her emotions, and looked at Leroy McCormick.

"Five years ago, did you save someone from the Dutt family?" Leroy McCormick lit a cigar and took a puff.

"Huh?" Both Rosemary and Harley were stunned. She hadn't expected them to come for this! Over the years, she had been worried about this day, sometimes waking up from nightmares! In the past year, this worry had faded a bit. She had thought that after five years, nothing would happen again. But unexpectedly, it still came!

As Harley heard Leroy McCormick's words, she glanced at Rosemary, somewhat surprised. Her sister had never mentioned this incident to her.

"Tell me, who was the person you saved, and where is he now? I'll let you go!" Leroy McCormick could see Rosemary's panic in her eyes with just one glance.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I've never saved anyone!" Rosemary steadied her emotions once again.

"Are you sure you're not going to tell me?" Leroy McCormick exhaled a smoke ring and spoke coldly.

"If I didn't do it, what can I say?" Rosemary took a deep breath and responded.

"I didn't want to resort to violence, but why do you have to force me?" Leroy McCormick's eyes narrowed slightly, then he waved his hand toward the four men behind him. "What are you waiting for? Aren't you tempted by this stunning beauty?"

"Thank you, Mr. McCormick!" The four men's eyes lit up simultaneously, and the man with the crew cut immediately walked toward Rosemary.

"What do you want? Don't come over!" Rosemary shouted, protecting her sister.

"Get out of the way!" The man with the crew cut slapped her aside with a palm, sending her tumbling onto the sofa. "Don't rush, let your sister taste our power first, and then it'll be your turn later!"

"You bastard!" Harley shouted loudly.

"Huh, little beauty, let's go. If you want to scream, you can scream all you want after we get into bed!" The man with the crew cut eyed Rosemary's figure, his Adam's apple bobbing several times. After speaking, he reached out toward Rosemary's chest.

"Get away!" Harley trembled all over, pushing the man with the crew cut's hand away.

Snap! The man with the crew cut narrowed his eyes and slapped her in the face, leaving a palm print on Harley's face.

Crackle! Immediately after, he ripped a hole in Harley's sweater, revealing a stretch of snowy white neck.

    Ronald was utterly blindsided when Junior and Archangel boldly murdered Razor right before his eyes. It had been a long while since anyone dared to challenge him in such a brazen manner. His eyes flickered with an icy menace as he radiated a powerful aura. Staring coldly at the duo, he spat out each word with icy precision. "Very good, you guys are damn impressive!"After his comment, he turned to address another middle-aged man, "Mr. Baker, you've seen it with your own eyes. The Darkmoon Legion is out of control, murdering innocents! I trust you'll see justice done today."Kenneth Baker nodded in agreement before turning his attention to Junior. "You guys from the Darkmoon Legion are really crossing the line, showing zero respect for the law. Who's your boss? I want him here, now!"Archangel couldn't help but sneer. "And who the hell are you, moron? Seems like you think you're a big shot.""How dare you!" a man in civilian clothes behind Kenneth interjected angr

    Razor scowled. "Do you even know who I am? How dare you step into my territory!""I don't give a shit who you are. Just shut up and stay out of the way. Your turn will come soon!" Archangel cut him off sharply."Motherfucker, who the hell do you think you are? Don’t talk to Razor like that!" The buzz-cut man pointed furiously at them.Before he could finish, a swift breeze swept from Junior's hand. A split second later, a severed hand dropped to the ground, blood gushing out."Ah..." The bald man screamed in agony."Shut your mouth or I'll kill you first," Junior said icily, then glanced at the man on the ground. "You, were you the bastard forcing Rosemary and the others to come here and drink?""You prick! You crippled my arm! I'm gonna fucking kill you today!" The bald man seethed, struggling to his feet.Before he could finish, Junior flicked his wrist. Instantly, the bald man's body burst open, leaving nothing but a mist of blood. Razor a

    "Huh?" Archangel paused, a hint of disbelief in his voice. "These assholes really chose death!"Junior grabbed his phone and tried calling Rosemary. But all he got was a voicemail message.The chill emanating from Junior spiked, his gaze turning icy as he ordered Archangel. "Pull up the street cameras, now!""Got it!" Archangel whipped out a specialized Darkmoon Legion smartphone, quickly accessing the surveillance with a few taps."It's that club up ahead." After scrutinizing the footage, Archangel pointed towards a club at the street's end."Get some backup and seal off this street, pronto!" Junior commanded as they made their way to the club, his voice brooking no argument. "Tonight, we're not letting anyone off the hook, no matter who they are.""Right away!" With a nod, Archangel sent out the order.In no time, the message mobilized a thousand soldiers clad in embroidered uniforms, converging on Eastoria City's pedestrian zone. The rapid respo

    "Die!" Junior said in a low voice. He casually raised his hand and swept out with his palm. The sound of wind breaking could be heard.Boom! A muffled sound was heard, and a cloud of blood mist exploded in the air. There was nothing left of that man. The saber broke into two and fell to the ground with two clangs.The next moment, the sound of vomiting came from all around. Many customers vomited the food they had just eaten.Even the people brought by Adler were shocked as their bodies trembled.A war master was actually slaughtered! Junior's power shocked everyone."Go back and tell Joziah Olsen that the Eastern Region must be strengthened. If something like this happens again, I'll hold him responsible!" When Junior finished speaking, he was already outside the restaurant door."Understood!" Adler turned around and bowed.A few minutes later, Junior returned to the car. He took out his phone and dialed Idris's number."Mr. Anderson!" The ph

    However, Junior completely ignored him. He turned around and walked towards the parking lot."You bastard, I'm talking to you. Didn't you hear me?" Joe chased after him angrily."Get lost!" Junior said in a deep voice."What an arrogant asshole!" Joe frowned. "I'm gonna teach you a lesson today."After saying that, he raised his hand and was about to smash Junior.Just then, four off-road jeeps screeched to a halt, and over ten men in casual clothing stepped out with serious and tense expressions."Dad!" Joe shouted when he saw the man in the lead."Joe? Why are you here?" The man in the lead was Joe's father, Adler Tyler."Dad, you came at the right time. There's a guy pretending to be a soldier here," Joe said as he walked towards his father. "I asked him what rank he had, and he shamelessly said that he didn't need a rank!""What?" Adler turned to look at Junior. His body trembled, and his face was filled with horror. Then, he quickly

    "Joe!" Stacey frowned slightly and looked at Junior. "I'm sorry, Mr. Anderson. Joe didn't mean that. Don't take it to heart. He...""I meant what I said!" Joe interrupted her. "I can't stand people who love to pretend. What do you mean you have no military rank? Other than recruits, all soldiers have military ranks. This is common sense. And he's obviously not a recruit. How can he not have a military rank?""Mr. Tyler, please mind your words." Rosemary was slightly displeased. "If my husband says he doesn't have a military rank, then he doesn't. He has no reason to lie to you.""Miss Jackson, I'm trying to help you here." Joe looked at Rosemary. "All soldiers have a military rank. He definitely isn't a soldier if he doesn't have a military rank. Don't be fooled by him! He might even be stripped of his military rank because he violated military discipline!""Joe, what's wrong with you? Can you shut up now?!" Stacey felt embarrassed, and her tone became colder. Th
