Chapter 277

Chris appeared before him in an instant and wasted no words.

He grabbed Vander Decken IX by the scruff and lifted him off the ground.

Like a hawk snatching up a chick!

The next moment, Chris appeared inside Ryugu Palace, still holding Vander Decken IX.

Before everyone's eyes, he tossed Vander Decken IX onto the floor.

Vander Decken IX was unconscious and completely unresponsive.

Perona had only just settled into her seat. When Chris suddenly appeared, she sprang into the air again in surprise.

"Whoa! Chris!"
