Chapter 1987
After they left, Oliver hesitated for a moment, then strode over to Leon’s side. 'Mister Wolf, I have something I need
to discuss with you in private," he muttered.
"Sure." Leon nodded.
With that, Angus, Alan, Iris, and Snow unanimously took a few steps backward, giving Leon and Oliver the privacy
they needed.
"What did you want to talk to me about, Oliver?" Leon asked dubiously.
"Sir, there has been news about the other criminals that you asked Abraham and me to track down a few days ago.
We heard from the Western region branch of the Dragon Corps that they have eyes on the eighth man of the
Criminal List, Poisonwielder," Oliver explained.

turned out that they traveled all the way here to bring this news to him, but stumbled upon the Hiltons' invasion by
accident!
"Who's this Poisonwielder, Oliver? How powerful is he?" Leon asked. He specifically instructed Oliver and Abraham
to keep an eye on the rest of the criminals on the list so that he could stand a chance to get even more contribution
points, which he would exchange for The Angel's Fruit, for taking down their enemies.
However, now that he already got his hands on The Angel's Fruit, he no longer needed to risk his life defeating the
rest of the criminals!
Despite that, the Eight Criminals were among the most infamous people in the entire Sky County, with many
citizens fearing their name. As an honorary member of the Dragon Corps, Leon was obliged to help maintain peace
by getting rid of as many criminals as he could!
Therefore, now that the Dragon Corps got wind of one of the criminals' whereabouts, he would have to find a way
to defeat him if possible!
Before he could do that, however, he first had to understand his opponents' background and the extent of his
powers!
"Sir, Poisonwielder has already attained the Initial Almighty State. Although he's the last among the Eight Criminals,
he's far more powerful than Asmodeus, who is the seventh on the list. Not only that, he's known to be far more
malicious and a bigger pain in the butt than Asmodeus was," Oliver replied truthfully.
"What? I can't believe it!" Leon was shocked to hear this, he knew of Asmodeus' ranking on the Criminal List from
the Dragon Corps, and initially, when he first heard that Poisonwielder was the eighth on the list, he thought that
this man's powers would be on par, if not lesser than that of Asmodeus'. If he could make a guess, he would
estimate this man to be in the Semi Almighty State at most.
He never once imagined that Poisonwielder would turn out

to be far more powerful than Asmodeus!
At the thought of this, Leon could not help wondering why, with such powers, was Poisonwielder ranked lower than
Asmodeus on the list.
"Sir, the people on the Criminal List aren't necessarily organized by a ranking of their power. We also take into
account the timing of their first appearance and the extent of their cruelty," Oliver explained.
The Criminal List was dynamic as sometimes, some of the criminals would be removed from the list after their
deaths or captured by either the Dragon Corps or the major families in Sky County. Despite that, new people
constantly cropped up, and would thus be added onto the list.
Since Asmodeus rose to power about a couple of years ago and was added to the Criminal List by the Central
region branch of the Dragon Corps, whereas Poisonwielder only first appeared about six months ago, this was why
he was ranked behind Asmodeus despite being more powerful than him.
If one were to judge on behalf of his strength and overall performance, he would at least be ranked in fifth or sixth
place!
