Ito Yuihiko found himself puzzled by Charlie’s presence, while Tanaka was even more bewildered.


    In Yuihiko’s view, Charlie was merely Aurora’s coach, a local expert from Aurous Hill, hardly a match for Japan’s Bagan. So, what brought him to Tokyo and into the conference room of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical?


    Even more baffling was Charlie’s im of being a major shareholder in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical!


    At that moment, Yuihiko’s demeanor darkened.


    During his journey, Yuihiko had overheard Tanaka discussing Charlie. He had little respect for such so-called masters and dismissed him outright.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Fixing his gaze on Charlie, he asserted coldly, “You better think carefully about the consequences of your words. You won’t be able to bear the cost of such ims!”


    Charlie, unfamiliar with Yuihiko, noticed his arrogant demeanor and the fact that he appeared to be in his fifties. This attitude irked him.


    With a steely re, Charlie retorted, “Don’t mistake your age for authority. If you keep this up, I might just hit you.”


    When had Yuihiko ever been spoken to in such a manner?


    Even the current leader of the Yakuza’s Seventh Generation Mee would show him respect. In this country, few dared to speak to him in such a way.


    Fuming, Yuihiko pointed at his two bodyguards and barked, “Teach him a lesson!”


    As soon as he finished hismand, the two bodyguards, who had been as still as statues, sprang into action towards Charlie.


    These men were not merepetition fighters like Yamamoto Kazuki; they were seasonedbat specialists. Their techniques mightck finesse, but their effectiveness was lethal!


    With a fierce growl, they channeled their full strength and charged at Charlie.


    Watching the two men rush towards Charlie, Tanaka tensed up.


    His concern wasn’t for Charlie, but for Yuihiko’s bodyguards.


    He recalled witnessing Charlie effortlessly dismantle Yamamoto Kazuki, who had been utterly defenseless against him!


    How could these two bodyguards possibly be several times stronger than Kazuki Yamamoto?


    For Charlie, defeating them could likely take just a few strikes.<fnc348> Original content can be found at find(?)ovel</fnc348>


    As the bodyguards approached, one on the left and the other on the right, they aimed heavy punches at both sides of Charlie’s ribs.


    The ribs are among the weakest areas of an adult’s body. Unlike the skull, they are not as sturdy and can easily break when struck from the side. A broken rib could be a sharp projectile, potentially piercing vital organs and causing severe internal bleeding—this was a nearly lethal tactic!


    Charlie narrowed his eyes at the unexpected brutality.


    In typical conflicts, few would resort to such treacherous moves; usually, the aim would be to injure limbs or face, not to kill.


    Yet, these two Japanese fighters seemed intent on lethal force from the get-go. It made Charlie wonder how many lives had already been lost due to such ruthless tactics!


    Moreover, these two were skilled in the art of chi, indicating they had undergone serious training.


    With a sneer, Charlie prepared for the impending impact. Just as their fists were about to make contact with his ribs, he swiftly extended his hands, gripping the wrists of both attackers with lightning speed.
