Chapter 2801
As soon as he finished his words, the audience burst into an uproar.
Ichigo could not hold himself back, "He admitted that he is a traitor. Kill him!"
The others also started a heated discussion.
Even Janus, who had been supporting him, turned pale at that moment and he looked at Fade with a strange expression.
Fade was still motionless. Ignoring the uproar around him, he said, "I killed them, but I am not a traitor."
These words triggered a wave of furious curses.
"You're still quibbling. If you killed someone, you're a traitor."
"Traitor, you actually have the guts to say such things here. Why don't you go to hell?"
"Kill the traitor."
Amidst the sounds of anger, Firstson stared at Fade's face for a few seconds and asked, "You killed Taruca and the others, but you say that you are not a traitor. What do you mean?"
Fade saluted Firstson and said, "Palace Master, I'm saying this because Taruca and his disciples deserved to die."
Before the noisy doubts could be heard again, he immediately continued, "The reason why I killed them was because they wanted to kill me first. I was forced to fight back and had to kill them."This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
"A bunch of nonsense!"
"Traitor, how dare you lie to the Three Palace Masters!"
"For a traitor like him, we don't need to listen to his nonsense. Just kill him."
Angry screams and curses filled the hall.
Firstson's expression remained cold. He stared at Fade and continued to ask, "You said you were forced to fight back. Do you have any evidence?" "Palace Master, he's lying. I don't think he's trustworthy!" Ichigo shouted angrily.
Many of the Chiefs agreed and followed to curse at him, wishing that they could kill Fade on the spot.
However, Fade did not even spare them a glance. He said to Firstson, "I have a witness."
"Where?" Firstson asked.
Fade turned his head to look outside the hall and said, "Come in!"
Then, two disciples of Prohibition Island carried a man covered in blood into the hall.
Soon, someone recognized the person on the stretcher, and the scene became lively.
"Isn't that Pacho Liu?"
"Wasn't he in the Ice-sealed Tower? Why is he here?"
"How did Pacho become like this?"
Amidst the discussions, Fade said, "This is the Pacho Liu of the Ice-sealed Tower. He's the witness whom I mentioned earlier." "Pacho, tell me what you know!" Fade glanced at Paco on the stretcher and said coldly.
Seeing Fade's face, Pacho shivered with fear and dared not hide anything. He told everyone how he and the rest colluded and plotted against Fade. Of course, he didn't say anything about Secondson's speculations and accusations. He only brought up Ichigo and stopped there.
After he finished, the crowd burst into an uproar again. Everyone started to discuss among themselves, glancing at Ichigo from time to time. Ichigo's expression changed drastically as he hastily defended himself, "That's nonsense. Slander; this is outright slander. I don't know anything about what he said at all, let alone participate."
"Ichigo, are you going to continue lying in front of the Three Palace Masters?" Fade asked coldly.
The raging Ichigo gritted his teeth. "I'm not lying. You're slandering me."
"Slandering?" Fade snorted coldly and
immediately took out a seal from his pocket.
A black dragon was engraved on the seal.
"Do you recognize this seal?" Fade asked coldly.
The moment Ichigo saw the seal, his expression changed drastically and his body trembled. He retreated a few steps and almost fell to the ground. The hall started to prattle again.
"Th-That's Ichigo's seal."
"Could it betrue? Ichigo..."
"This seal represents the identity of the Chief. They usually carry it around on them. How could he..."
"Fake; it's a fake," Ichigo denied loudly.
Fade said coldly, "I found this on Taruca when I searched him. I believe the Three Palace Masters can tell whether it's true or not."
"You!" Ichigo narrowed his eyes.
As for Fade, he too narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "If this isn't enough, I have the private letter you wrote to Taruca. Do you want me to read it out loud?"
While speaking, he took out a letter.
The moment he saw the letter, Ichigo lost control. He rushed over and wanted to grab the letter from him.
However, Fade was already prepared. He threw a kick and landed it on Ichigo's abdomen, knocking him to the ground.
At that moment, Firstson's expression darkened. He looked at Ichigo and asked coldly, "Care to explain?"
"Palace Master, I-I didn't..." Ichigo instinctively wanted to deny it.
However, Firstson shouted, "Are you still going to lie to my face?"
In an instant, Ichigo trembled in fear. "Yes, I did it, but I had a reason. Fade killed our disciples and Taruca's family. He had to pay the price."
Firstson said coldly, "Fade was the champion and I personally made the decision. Are you questioning me?"
"No, no, I would never!" Ichigo refuted hurriedly.
"You're already colluding with people
and tried to kill him behind my back, yet you're saying that you would never question me?" Firstson

slammed his palm on the armrest
and shouted angrily.
Ichigo was so terrified that he could only bow and beg for mercy, "Palace Master, I know I've made a mistake. Please spare my life."
"I was in the wrong. I won't dare to..."
Firstson's expression turned cold and he said nothing.
At that moment, Secondson snorted
ment,
coldly and stared at Ichigo. "A fault is a fault, and rules are rules. If you do something wrong, you should take responsibility. Since you're one of the oldest members of Prohibition Istand, end your own life!"
"End your own life."
Hearing these words, Ichigo's face
turned pale. He looked up at
Secondson, with sadness, Se
and disappointment on his face. "Master Secondson, I... You..."
Secondson interrupted him in a cold voice, "Still quibbling? Do you want me to do it myself?"
Looking up at Secondson's cold eyes, Ichigo felt sad. He shook his head and said in a low voice, "Don't bother, Master Secondson. I know what to
do."
After that, he stood up from the ground and looked at Fade with his eyes full of resentment.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Chen, one day, you will be screwed."
Fade looked as usual, and his voice was calm and indifferent, "Maybe there will be such a day, but you definitely won't see it."
