Fate!

Would someone stab us in the back?!

After hearing Bai Ye's words, everyone grinned. It did seem possible.

Yet something about it also felt off.

Would anyone really stab them in the back?!

It did not seem very likely!

Mainly because there were only a handful of people with real strength. Even if there were any, they would probably be wiped out soon enough.

So those who remained should not be the kind to start stabbing people in the back.

Even though Kizaru and the others felt that was highly unlikely.

Why had Bai Ye said that, then?!

They could not figure it out for the moment.

But from the sound of it, could Bai Ye really believe that?!

After all, stabbing someone in the back...

Forget it.

Perhaps he simply thought that, no matter how weak they were, making little moves behind the scenes would still be troublesome.

From that perspective, what Bai Ye said did not seem wrong.

If they truly allowed those people to join them now, when everyone was already not of one mind...

If problems arose later, they might not affect the bigger picture, but they would still be disgusting.

So it would actually be better if those people did not join them. It would be better for them to stay behind.

But even if Bai Ye had considered this possibility.

He probably would not intervene.

If he chose
