Chapter 1367: Chapter 1372 Loneliness

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, then he forced a wry smile and said, "Take out Big Ivan? Alright, you mean Aaron’s unfinished business is up to me, Old Devil? Don’t joke around, this trouble is bigger than I imagined."

Anton smiled mysteriously and said, "If you want benefits, you must pay a price, but there’s also good news, which is that Big Ivan can cooperate. He doesn’t really want to die, but he’s willing to play along with us so that the four guys from Cerberus think they’ve really taken out Big Ivan."

Yang Yi’s expression turned serious, and then he said in a low voice, "Big Ivan is willing to cooperate?"

Anton nodded, then said solemnly, "Yes, I don’t know why Big Ivan is willing to do this, but Satan is retiring."

Yang Yi was silent for a long time before he surprisingly said to Anton, "Gong Yang is retiring?"

"It’s not just Gong Yang, it’s the entire Satan."

Yang Yi took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "Satan... rose with the speed of a meteor, and will also exit the stage in a similar flash. The question is, can Gong Yang really retire? You’ve been hanging out with Black Devil’s people all these days, tell me, do they really want to retire, or is it just a smokescreen?"

Anton shook his head and said, "They probably really want to retire. What would they wait for if not? Keep making money? The people from Satan are already rich enough. This time, Satan didn’t lose anyone, but most members were severely injured, and a few were crippled. This greatly weakened Satan’s strength. Of course, Gong Yang just doesn’t want to be a mercenary anymore, but to completely withdraw is probably impossible for him, he can’t extricate himself either."

"Yeah, it’s easy to get in, but hard to get out. There’s no such easy departure from this circle."

Anton raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute, we’re talking about the matter of Cerberus, not Gong Yang’s retirement."

"You’re the one who brought it up."

"I brought up the retirement of Satan, but you’re the one entangled in this topic now. I mean, the current focus is Cerberus."

"Affected by Brother Yong, uh, Gong Yang wants to retire, so Cerberus has become a trouble they must solve immediately, right?"

Anton nodded and said, "Yes, Gong Yang doesn’t want to kill those four people, but he can’t keep them either. Grevatov’s idea is for us to take them in. After all, the members of Cerberus are truly skilled, and no one can deny that. Acquiring these few people could immediately enhance the combat power of the Organization of Water significantly. The most crucial thing is that these four people can absolutely be controlled."

Yang Yi said, "Bringing the topic back, how do we deal with Big Ivan!"

"This requires detailed discussions with Black Devil and needs arrangements with both Gong Yang and Big Ivan."

Yang Yi shook his head and said in a low voice, "I’m not very convenient, but you can represent me to talk to Gong Yang and Big Ivan. Anton, do you know that Big Ivan and Gong Yang both have very close relations with the Cleaners?"

"I know, you’ve mentioned that."

"Then do you think this matter is a conspiracy? Why does Big Ivan want to take advantage of this opportunity to get away? What reason does he have to extricate himself? And to use a fake death, such an old-fashioned method to do so."

Anton said in a low voice, "Big Ivan now seems fine, but that’s not the truth. Big Ivan has agreed to a deal with the United States. He must stay in a mansion in South Africa, and Americans will always monitor him, not letting him leave their sight. So this is not a peace agreement, it’s just a temporary ceasefire agreement."

The four remaining members of Cerberus, this intrigued Yang Yi, but wanting these four meant taking in four ticking time bombs, which was Yang Yi’s concern.

Walking between the Cleaners and Grey-cloaked People, before doing anything, Yang Yi had to consider what reaction the Grey-cloaked People or the Cleaners might have.

After hesitating for a moment, Yang Yi nodded and said, "The Cleaners have not contacted me so far."

"Hmm?"

Yang Yi waved his hand, then said to Anton in a low voice, "You contact Gong Yang, discuss how to handle this matter exactly. I need to proactively contact the Cleaners and ask what their opinion is on this matter. We cannot bypass the Cleaners and independently deal with or assist Big Ivan. When you interact with Gong Yang and Black Devil, reveal this point to them. Yes, we’ll proceed on both fronts simultaneously, and if there’s a problem on either side, we’ll stop this matter. If it really can be done, then you take charge of this matter to the end."

Anton nodded and said, "Alright, understood. So what will you do next?"

Yang Yi leaned back, resting on the chair’s backrest, looking puzzled and said, "To be honest, I don’t know, I’m a bit confused right now. Hmm, are you sure Gong Yang is really retiring?"

"Yes, there’s no doubt about that. Why? Why are you so concerned about whether or not he’s retiring?"

Yang Yi chuckled and said, "I find it a bit of a shame because if Gong Yang steps back, there will be one less gun god. But also a bit of a relief because if Gong Yang really retires, then the underworld will have one less person who breaks the rules with gunplay. No matter what, Gong Yang is the person I know in this world who has taken the weapon of a gun to its ultimate. There was none before and there will be none after. So his exit is like, like..."

Anton puzzledly asked, "Like what?"

Yang Yi was silent for a moment and said, "Nothing, just thinking without someone like Gong Yang, things may be a bit mundane. How many have been called gods throughout history? This one gun god retiring to the backstage, it feels like a bit of a pity when you think about it."

Anton was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Typical Eastern thinking, not quite understanding. For me, it’s better if people like Gong Yang don’t appear at all, disrupting rules and balance. When you’ve trained to become the world’s strongest, you understand everything, but with someone like Gong Yang who just shoots, you can only be shot dead by him. That feeling is terrible. For a versatile person like me, it’s best if such people as Gong Yang never appear. One Gong Yang is enough. I’m quite glad he’s retiring, I hope there won’t be another Gong Yang in the future."

"How many years do you think it takes for someone like Gong Yang to appear?"

Anton laughed and said, "Thank God, people like Gong Yang don’t appear even once every few decades."

"You don’t believe in God."

"Who else should I thank if not Him?"

"Talking to you is really boring."

Anton waved his hand and said, "I feel differently, I find talking to you very interesting, especially seeing you upset and helpless is really interesting. Anything else? If not, I need to discuss with Grevatov about handling the Cerberus issue."

Yang Yi hesitated to speak, Anton waved his hand again and said, "Don’t ask me about what to do with Petra again. Since you can’t follow what I suggest, then tell me how I can help you, rather than seeking my opinion again."

Yang Yi sighed lightly, with an impatient look, "Goodbye!"
