After a while, Ye Chen finally managed to trick the people who had been getting in the way into leaving. Kuina gritted her teeth in anger and glared at him, almost drawing her sword to kill him. Trafalgar Law tactfully took Ultraman aside. Just as Kuina was about to explode, Ye Chen sensed trouble and hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry.
