King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer-Chapter 607 - 581: Dead is Dead

It was only at the very end that Joe Ga realized why this matter had felt off the whole time.

With one phone call at the airport, Isa had made everything crystal clear.

Looking back now, she was muddying the waters, seeking to scatter England's attention and let them falter under immense pressure from their ally, thereby creating an opportunity for Aaron.

However, Isa hadn't expected Joe Ga to be so ruthless. She thought killing Scarlett would be enough to appease his rage, but in the end, even the Iron Lady who had served for decades was taken out.

Isa's rank made it difficult for her to understand Joe Ga's logic in his actions.

Killing Scarlett was not just about revenge; it also served to assert his authority. With the Iron Lady's maneuvering, Joe Ga's objective was greatly compromised.

In the eyes of others, this looked like the Iron Lady was negotiating, and in the end, she reaped the benefits.

How could he accept that?

So, the overly confident Iron Lady was shot dead!

Joe Ga could accept others hitching a ride on his success, but he would never tolerate it if they did so to his detriment.

Those who are not interested in a win-win situation are not ideal collaborators for Joe Ga!

Eliminating her was a warning and a stance.

Joe Ga didn't ask for much, but still, someone coveted the limited benefits of the "Chef." How could that stand?

I'll take you down!

To protect his "core interests," even if it means attracting some trouble, Joe Ga was willing to accept it, and he believed the Prime Minister of England would too.

As it turned out, when individual interests clashed with national interests, even if the individual was a major figure, in the end, their death didn't make much of a difference!

Once the person involved died, England paid the price, making it easier to fend off the ally's questioning!

Joe Ga didn't care to know the specifics of Aaron's plan; from beginning to end, they were never enemies.

The ambush at the airport was commanded by Scarlett and the Iron Lady, and carried out by their agents. Isa simply went with the flow, exposing their underbelly…

In reality, she provided Joe Ga with evidence and convenience, which helped him to connect with the Prime Minister.

Joe Ga guessed Isa herself couldn't have imagined that she would become the most powerful person in the intelligence agency in such a short time.

This was indeed a huge favor for Aaron and also made him realize that Joe Ga probably guessed his objectives.

But Joe Ga didn't question him or try to stop him; instead, he subtly condoned the actions, which for a lone wolf like Aaron, was very important to feel that there was a "kindred spirit" thousands of miles away.

To put it a bit sentimentally, "having no one understand you" can drive a person mad.

And now, Joe Ga had become a beacon of light from under the sun in Aaron's mind, a point of stability preventing him from sliding into the deepest abyss.

Joe Ga didn't know any of these; he only knew that Aaron, that bastard, easily manipulated a terrorist blinded by love.

To repay the 'favor,' Aaron had to utterly betray ISIS in Iraq.

The dirty bomb of ISIS wasn't likely to be found anytime soon; NATO's reluctance to act rashly didn't mean they wouldn't support P·B's entry into Iraq.

The Iraqi Government had been mobilizing for a long time, and if they kept dragging their feet, the war would become an indecipherable mess. If Iran took over, many variables would emerge, an outcome unacceptable to everyone.

If Joe Ga was willing to get involved now, he would become "the brightest star." Even if he couldn't do as he pleased, at the very least, he could garner all the media and practical support for that humanitarian corridor.

By openly killing the head and deputy head of England's Intelligence Bureau, Joe Ga had established his 'authority' sufficiently.

After sitting down with Walter Hansen at the Zurich police headquarters and waiting for a NATO officer with a document to show up, Joe Ga was released.

At the entrance of the police headquarters, I ran into a group of high-ranking officers' wives and was forced to video chat with Nis, letting my own girlfriend greet a bunch of pampered ladies full of charitable spirits with no outlet.

Suppressing the 'pain' of my butt being groped several times, Joe Ga hugged these enthusiastic officers' wives tightly and encouraged them to visit Liberia when they had time, before finally getting into the car and leaving with a NATO officer.

To be honest, Joe Ga had a very good impression of Switzerland, but he never imagined that he could become friends with a high-ranking official just by running into one.

And if nothing unexpected happened, this high-ranking friend of his would take his turn as the head of Switzerland in a couple of years.

Joe Ga also found it a bit unbelievable when he got the news from the NATO officers.

For so many years, Joe Ga wasn't aware that the Swiss head was actually alternated yearly among seven departmental committee members.

They also had political parties, but there were no particularly fierce disputes within them.

Sit down, elect committee members, announce the distribution of money to everyone on time, and that's it.

Joe Ga couldn't quite describe how he felt about all this, eventually concluding with 'having money is good'!

Escorted by NATO officers and a squad of soldiers to a mountain cabin, Joe Ga rendezvoused with Dorian and Karman, who had returned earlier, and then he saw a bunch of SAS in nothing but their underwear.

The NATO officer took a camera, filmed them seriously, then turned to Joe Ga and said, "sir, would you like me to deal with them?

These men were acting out of jurisdiction and not only violated Swiss law but actually hindered our counter-terrorism operations in practice.

I'd like to take them back and put them before a military court!

I assure you they will receive the punishment they deserve!"

Joe Ga smiled, waved his hand, then crouched in front of the SAS members and said, "Fellows, your careers are over, but I'm not one for kicking a man when he's down.

You were following orders, and now the person who commanded your mischief is dead, so I prefer to respect the choices of soldiers."

Gesturing for Spurs to come over, Joe Ga pulled out his phone to show the video of two intelligence chiefs being killed, and said, "Unbind them and give them their clothes.

If they still don't know what happened, let this major explain to them.

A few English politicians messed things up, making a simple counter-terrorism mission very complicated.

But now, those damned bastards are all dead..."

These SAS members still didn't understand what had happened.

That's the sorrow of soldiers; everyone tells them that obeying orders is their sacred duty, but most of the time, no one bothers to explain where the 'orders' come from.

Who holds the command often determines the fate of these soldiers because they are 'knives', and when the hand holding the knife is cut off, the knives also face judgment.

It sounds ludicrous, but that's reality!

The moment that NATO major appeared, the SAS knew they had caused trouble.

When Joe Ga announced that the 'ringleaders' were dead and showed the images of their last moments, the SAS knew there was no other way out.

The captain of this squad was named Allen Montgomery, call sign 'Duke'.

As soon as Spurs cut the restraints off him, 'Duke' raised his hand and called out, "sir, we'd like to contact our superiors."

Already at the cabin's door, Joe Ga didn't look back as he waved his hand, saying, "Do as you please, but I reckon your commanders are now in hot water themselves."

As Joe Ga opened the door, he turned to look back at the SAS and said with a smile, "I suggest you have a drink, and then if you feel the need, go contact anyone you think could help you.

Once you've thought it through, come and listen to what I have to suggest!"
