At the sa ti, in the courtroom’s monitor, small sparks of electricity wrapped around the cara lens.
Turing stared at the live video of Logan, his eyes full of shock and admiration.
He used his data access rights to call a secret line to the Dream Committee’s top leaders, and sent the live footage to them.
"Everyone, you all saw it. He has already gone way beyond all of our expectations," Turing said in amazent.
After receiving the signal from Turing, the other side quickly responded: "Maybe, it’s ti we et him earlier."
Upon hearing this, Turing’s eyes flashed with so characters: "I’ll arrange it."
In the center of the battlefield, Logan ignored the commotion around him.
He vanished in a flash and appeared right beside Black.
Black was a 36-star Saint, with very strong combat instincts.
He imdiately gave up his fight with Lucia, turned around, and used the evolved version of [Absolute Control] — [Divine Command] — at close range.
Behind Black, 36-star marks flashed, and Saint pressure turned into a golden cage, instantly surrounding Logan.
"Kneel down!" Black roared wildly, pouring all his remaining power into it.
He wanted to use his power to force Logan to obey.
Logan had already expected this. He laughed coldly: "I already saw this coming."
As soon as he finished speaking, Logan imdiately activated his [Three-Headed Hell Wolf] Battle Style. Black’s [Divine Command] was split by the three-headed mind core of Logan, and its power dropped by two-thirds instantly.
After dealing with that move, Logan didn’t give Black a chance to attack again. He pressed both hands hard onto Black’s body.
Black hadn’t expected Logan to withstand his strongest ability. He muttered, "Damn it," and tried to block Logan’s attack.
For a mont, the two of them pushed against each other, stuck in a deadlock.
Logan saw this and coldly laughed, "Natalia! Sophia! Help !"
"Got it!" The three girls replied in unison and attacked at the sa ti.
Natalia’s Web Domain threads quickly spread out, wrapping around Black’s arms and legs. The threads precisely locked all the energy points inside his body.
Black felt his energy flow beco thick and slow, like mud. He was instantly controlled by Logan and fell to one knee.
At this crucial mont,
Sophia, who was already in her sniper position high above, had already locked onto Black’s energy core.
"Destruction Eye — Triple Shot!"
Sophia shouted loudly, and three silver-white energy balls exploded around Black, hitting his forehead, heart, and lower abdon — three vital points.
Black had to split his attention to defend, and his ntal power suddenly spread out. His ability to resist Logan’s power started to drop.
Logan seized this once-in-a-lifeti chance. He gathered all his power into a golden light column and fired it directly at Black’s chest, completely breaking all of his defenses.
"No!"
Black let out a loud scream. His 36-star Saint pressure instantly collapsed and disappeared.
The gene lock core on his chest was shattered by that punch. His power stage rushed out like a flood, disappearing completely.
36 star..
34 star...
25 star...
Black’s stage kept dropping until the number of star marks on his back returned to 20. Only then did his breathing stabilize.
With a loud boom, Black fell to the ground, coughed up blood, and his face turned pale.
He looked up at Logan standing in front of him, his eyes full of fear. "Don’t kill ... I surrender."
Black’s voice trembled, and he lost all his previous arrogance.
Logan coldly looked at him and stepped on the broken judgnt platform. His voice was icy. "Your cri will be judged by Pinocchini’s law."
As soon as he finished speaking, Black couldn’t hold on any longer. Without his power, he collapsed and fainted.
The chanical guards nearby quickly moved in and captured him on the spot.
On the other side, the Vanzo family representative and the two elders saw the situation and tried to run.
But Natalia’s Web Domain had already set up a trap. Black threads suddenly tightened, tying the three of them up and capturing them instantly.
Logan released his pressure and looked around the room. "From today on, the Latio family officially takes the top spot among the thirteen Golden Families of Pinocchini! Who agrees? Who disagrees?"
His voice was loud and clear, spreading across every corner of Pinocchini through the holographic broadcast.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hiyua from the front row of the audience stood up, her voice full of excitent, "Finally, the Latio family has a successor who perfectly inherits the [Predict the Future] ability!"
Gwen and Bobbi stood on either side of her, smiling with pride.
Hearing this, the representatives of the thirteen Golden Families all lowered their heads and dared not speak against it.
The crowd around them started clapping, and the applause lasted for a long ti.
In the live holographic broadcast room, the chat screen was already flooded with ssages:
"Wow! Master Logan is so strong! That punch completely wiped out a Saint!"
"Latio family is rising! A new era has arrived in Pinocchini!"
"Black got what he deserved! Master Logan finally made us feel good!"
"46-star Legend stage! I can’t even imagine how strong he’ll be after breaking through Saint stage! This is our Legend of Pinocchini!"
The applause on the battlefield slowly died down.
The murmurs in the audience seats also gradually stopped.
At this mont, everyone’s eyes were focused on the center of the courtroom.
They were waiting for the final decision of this major trial that shook Pinocchini.
Soon, Turing’s hologram appeared in the center of the courtroom, with a crackling sound.
"After verification by the Dream Committee, Black is charged with hiding the newborn crisis, colluding with the Lost World Exploitation forces, forming a blood oath assassination group to kill Federation honor officials, and planning terrorist attacks to harm Pinocchini’s security."
"He is sentenced to have all his positions and benefits removed. From today, he will be exiled to the mining fields outside the Lost Wastes crying valley. He is never allowed to return to Pinocchini."
On the judge’s seat, a bucket of cold water was thrown onto Black’s face. He opened his eyes in confusion.
The weakness of dropping to 20 stars hit him all over his body instantly.
When he heard the word "exile," his eyes flashed with madness for a mont.
He was about to scream out so threats, but was quickly covered by a chanical guard and dragged away from the courtroom.
His struggles beca weaker and weaker, until he finally disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Turing’s eyes turned to the three Vanzo family mbers who were tied up.
"The three Vanzo family mbers involved are accused of conspiring with Black. Their control over three core districts will be revoked, and they will be fined ten thousand tons of strategic energy crystals. All those involved will be handed over to the High Court Session for judgnt."
"Any other families that supported the war faction and participated in the conspiracy, such as Rir and Toredo, will also be held responsible. Their illegal gains will be seized, and their family decision-making rights will be reduced. No leniency will be shown."
Upon hearing the final verdict, the Vanzo family representative turned pale. He no longer dared to say a word, and only lowered his head in humiliation.
At the sa ti, in a corner of the audience seats.
Maurice watched the scene, his back instantly covered in cold sweat, his eyes full of regret.
If he hadn’t turned on Black at the last mont and testified against him, he would have been the one on trial today.
The other family representatives who had once supported the war faction also fell silent, not daring to raise their heads.
They were afraid that the committee’s punishnt would soon fall on them.
As the final gavel struck, this major High Court Session that had shaken the whole Pinocchini finally ca to an end.
At night, the weather was slightly cool.
A gentle wind passed through the rooftop of the Latio family’s top floor.
Natalia stood alone by the railing, her long black hair gently blowing in the night breeze.
"What are you thinking about?" Logan’s voice ca from behind her.
Logan walked over and stood beside Natalia, his eyes looking at the city’s night view in the distance.
Natalia turned her head and looked into Logan’s eyes, smiling gently.
Then, she reached out and gently held Logan’s hand, her fingers tightening slightly. "I was thinking... since the first ti we joined a team and entered the Lost World, you have never let the people behind you down."
"Logan, you’re now even stronger than as a familiar tar. I’m wondering if I’m still worthy of walking beside you." There was a rare hesitation in Natalia’s voice, but also deep certainty.
Logan hadn’t expected Natalia to be so direct. He tightly held her hand and pulled her into his arms.
"You’ve always been walking beside , and you always will."
After saying that, Logan gently kissed Natalia’s forehead.
The evening wind lifted their clothes, and the moonlight fell on their embraced figures.
Suddenly, two soft coughs echoed from the entrance of the rooftop.
Sophia leaned against the doorfra, a playful smile on her lips.
Lucia stood beside her, her eyes also filled with an unmistakable smile.
"It seems we ca at the wrong ti?" Sophia raised an eyebrow and teased.
"Should we wait a bit longer while you two get more comfortable? We can take turns keeping watch," Lucia said with a hint of jealousy, teasingly.
"Stop talking nonsense. You two ca at the perfect ti," Logan let go of Natalia and reached out to them. "We’ve gone through life and death together. Why should we worry about who ca first?"
Natalia let out a soft laugh and turned to look at the two of them, her eyes full of love.
Under the moonlight, the three girls slowly walked to Logan’s side, and four hands rested on top of each other.
There was no awkwardness or hesitation—only the deep trust and understanding built through countless battles.
Logan kissed each of the three girls in turn. They quietly felt the hormones radiating from him, and their bodies instantly beca soft.
Only when Logan reached into Natalia’s clothes did she softly beg, "No, not here. Let’s go inside."
