Rin, Wacko, and Jofin stood in a tense standoff. Surrounding them, hundreds of lone warriors had backed away, maintaining a safe distance as spectators.
"What do you think will happen next?" one of the spectators asked aboard a spaceship hovering nearby.
"What else? A fight, obviously. Although the Federation is stronger than the two combined, they wouldn't dare start a war with both at the same time. The losses would outweigh the gains. You know how those old foxes think—they'd never allow it," a bystander replied, and several others nodded in agreement.
"And the Night Blood Clan and the Mercenary Group are evenly matched. I doubt any large-scale war will break out soon. Their backgrounds are equally formidable—neither side would easily bow. I mean, which of them doesn't have a top-tier universal-level being backing them? In the end, a clash between these three will decide everything," another added, prompting more nods.
