Clinging to his newfound hope, Lord Voodoo yelled as loudly as he could to the person outside.

Just then, Salazar shouted, "Watch out, Matthew!"

Matthew was startled. Why is Salazar telling me to watch out?

Amid his uncertainty, someone in black jumped in through the window and charged at him.

The person's arrival had been so sudden that Matthew hadn't noticed him at all.

However, Matthew was on his toes after hearing Salazar's shouts.

Therefore, just as the person tried to attack Matthew, he quickly rolled on the ground and narrowly avoided the blow.

He finally realized what was happening. This person in black was the same Emsgate Warrior who was previously with Macon.

The Emsgate Warrior was in a terrible state.

Earlier on, he fell into Lord Voodoo's trap and had to deal with the poison.

Even though he was decisive enough to save himself by cutting off parts of his skin which the poison had come into contact with, he was still seriously injured.

He forced Matthew back, but he didn't chase after Matthew. Instead, he rushed over to Lord Voodoo and reached into Lord Voodoo's left pocket. He quickly retrieved a few bottles and stuffed them all into his pocket.

However, he didn't stop there and started searching all over Lord Voodoo. It looked as if he wanted to take everything that was on Lord Voodoo right now!

Matthew's expression changed. It was clear that the Emsgate Warrior wanted to snatch the Stargulf's fruit.

It seemed that the Emsgate Warrior had realized that he made a mistake too.

Although he had taken a bottle from Lord Voodoo's double earlier on, with everything that happened after, he realized that what he took was fake, so he came running back.

But if the Emsgate Warrior's here, then who is Salazar fighting against outside?

Just then, a loud bang rang out from the other side of the window, and two people rushed in.

Matthew turned around and spotted Salazar, along with another person in black.

Both of them rushed straight toward Lord Voodoo.

Coincidentally, the Emsgate Warrior had also finished searching Lord Voodoo's body.

He gathered all the bottles and leaped out the window before disappearing into the night.

The person in black immediately went after the Emsgate Warrior. It proved that he was after Stargulf's fruit as well.

Salazar turned to Matthew. He was hesitant as to whether he should go after them.

"Go after them," Matthew said at once. "People from the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale will be here soon, so you don't have to worry."

Salazar nodded and jumped out the window before disappearing into the night as well.

Now that all three were gone, Matthew was brimming with vigilance.

Everything that happened tonight was beyond anything he could've thought of.

It was one thing for the Emsgate Warrior to show up, but there was now another person in black too.

This black-clad person seemed to be on an even footing with Salazar when it came to fighting prowess.

Now that this person was trying to get his hands on Stargulf's fruit as well, things became a lot more complicated. Matthew couldn't help but frown. He could tell that the effects of the energy pill were coming to an end.

He was almost completely out of strength now.

Matthew stared at Lord Voodoo who was slumped in a corner. He gritted his teeth and took out a few silver needles.

Then, he pierced the needles into a few of Lord Voodoo's acupoints.

As soon as the needles broke through, Lord Voodoo felt all his strength dissipating. It was flowing out through the needles.

At the same time, he couldn't sense any inner energy flowing through his meridians.

His eyes grew wide with shock as he asked in a trembling voice, "W-What did you do to me?"

"I destroyed your meridians!" Matthew announced coldly. "From now on, don't even think about practicing martial arts again. Even if you do have the Stargulf's fruit with you, it won't be of any use to you anymore!"

Lord Voodoo froze for a few seconds before howling furiously, "Matthew Larson!"
