My Ability Pool is Superior - Chapter 218: Marching In Force

Nightfall descended, and Chikan Bay began to plunge into complete chaos.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, a figure flew out on the spot, his two-hundred-plus jin body directly smashing through the second floor’s floor-to-ceiling window.

Accompanied by shards of glass raining down with a clattering splash, the scene gradually fell into deathly silence.

The two sides that had been fiercely fighting both stopped at the same time.

Especially the Miller Family members, who were completely stunned in place.

This man who had fallen from the second floor was the Miller Family’s current patriarch. Once he was defeated, everyone in the Miller Family knew what that meant.

As Lu Bai appeared at the shattered window, all the All Villains members below erupted in enthusiastic cheers, raising their right hands toward Lu Bai.

“We won!”

“Brother Bai is mighty!”

“All Villains forever!!!”

In contrast to the excited All Villains members, most of the Miller Family people slumped to the ground on their asses.

A few guys still harboring some will to fight and fighting spirit were too weak in numbers; any movement they made was quickly suppressed.

“This is too slow.”

Xiao Fengze, wearing boxing gloves, walked up behind Lu Bai: “Annexing a faction of this level holds little meaning for us.”

Lu Bai casually waved his hand.

“Annexing the Miller Family is just incidental. The main goal is to let everyone get familiar, recognize faces—you can think of it as a team-building activity.”

“But Brother Fengze is right.”

Xiao Xueyin thought for a moment and added: “This kind of small skirmish doesn’t hold much significance. Though All Villains hasn’t made a name for itself yet, with you and Brother Fengze, two Grandmaster Martial Artists, presiding, our strength is no weaker than those top factions. We could make a bigger splash.”

“Also, Lu Bai, where is the third Grandmaster you mentioned?”

Xiao Fengze had indeed joined All Villains, but he hadn’t fully recognized Lu Bai’s authority—this was evident from how he addressed Lu Bai.

It made sense, after all; he was a Grandmaster Martial Artist and needed to maintain some pride.

In his view, his status with Lu Bai was at least one of equal cooperation, not subordination.

He even harbored the notion of using his personal charisma to win over Lu Bai and become the dominant force in All Villains.

After all, after Xiao Fengze brought his Iron Fist Club into the fold, its sheer size made it the largest faction within All Villains.

Unless Lu Bai could really pull in another Grandmaster Martial Artist, who All Villains truly answered to was still up in the air.

“No rush, no rush.”

Lu Bai seemed oblivious to such hidden risks, chuckling as he explained: “I’ve already sent someone to invite them. If we’re lucky, we might even get a Half-step Grandmaster as a bonus.”

Hearing this, Xiao Xueyin subtly glanced at Brother Fengze: “As long as you have it figured out.”

“Before that…”

Lu Bai stood up: “Let’s first take down Hei Jinbao’s territory. It’s time to seize Heping Lane for ourselves.”

……

Annexing a faction—having done it multiple times in such a short period—had become routine for White Shark.

He screened the Miller Family members willing to join All Villains, broke them up, and integrated them.

It didn’t take much time to form new combat power.

In a sense, members joining under such circumstances would only fall into two extremes.

One type had absolutely no loyalty whatsoever; the other, fueled by convert’s fanaticism, was even more dedicated than the original All Villains members.

So as long as Lu Bai’s flag was still flying, there was no need to worry about members’ loyalty. A few more team-building sessions, and everyone would get familiar.

Soon, under Lu Bai and the others’ lead, numerous All Villains members crowded the street, marching grandly toward the next battle.

Due to the tight timeline, All Villains members didn’t have unified uniforms yet—especially the newly joined Iron Fist Club and Miller Family people, who were still wearing their original factions’ signature clothing, looking like a ragtag mob hastily pieced together.

Fortunately, numbers alone often served as a form of deterrence.

Along the way, various factions of all sizes, even upon seeing this group, didn’t dare to come out and block them, instead turning to inquire whose outfit this was.

Even when Lu Bai led All Villains to arrive at a citizen plaza, the two factions that had been fiercely fighting there immediately stopped in fright, nearly thinking some faction had come to snatch the spoils.

No helping it; no matter how ragtag, the sheer numbers were overwhelming.

A vast sea of heads filled the streets and alleys in sight—roughly estimated, there had to be thousands.

This scale even surpassed the Jin Family Gang.

To put it bluntly, more members in a faction wasn’t always better; the more people, the greater the cost of feeding henchmen.

Regardless of personnel quality, pulling out this many meant their territory couldn’t be small.

From one of the sides vying for the plaza, a boss in loose mink fur stepped forward, cupping his hands toward Lu Bai: “May I ask which path our brothers are from?”

Lu Bai didn’t respond, merely tilting his head slightly.

White Shark immediately stepped up astutely to explain the situation: “Liu Family Gang and the Safin Black Hand. Liu Family Gang is an affiliate of Jin Family Gang.”

Lu Bai nodded and waved his hand grandly: “Then resolve them while we’re at it.”

White Shark nodded excitedly in agreement, then let out a long howl toward the sky.

“Brothers, charge with me!”

“Oh!!!”

All Villains’ numbers were simply too massive; their charge unstoppable, indiscriminately crushing both sides that had been fighting moments before.

In the tide, only a few Red Poles could hold out a bit longer; the rest of the lines collapsed at the first touch.

Lu Bai, unhurried, led Xiao Xueyin and Brother Fengze forward at a leisurely pace.

The vacancy for Chikan Bay’s Leader was too tempting for top factions; they had no attention for battles in the exterior area—no matter how fierce the battle, it was beneath the top factions’ notice.

This was good for Lu Bai and his group; currently, no faction in Chikan Bay External Area could stop All Villains.

Of course, even if All Villains seized Heping Lane while the position was vacant, they’d still face Hei Jinbao’s counterattack in the end.

In the end, strength spoke loudest.

“So I think we should head straight to the Dao Sect outpost now. Messing around in Heping Lane holds no real meaning?”

Xiao Fengze glanced at the crushing battle in the plaza without much concern, frowning instead.

Xiao Xueyin’s gaze flickered; after hesitating, he still advised as his cousin: “Brother Fengze, you told me earlier to have patience.”

“No rush, no rush.”

Lu Bai noticed the trio appearing at the other end of the street and said mildly: “Look, All Villains’ third Grandmaster has arrived, right on cue.”
