Jiang Chu said that on purpose.
He knew, of course, that Barkov's goal was not to kill him, but to capture him alive and then hand him over to the Skull Rose organization.
This is also Barkov's best opportunity.
Now, because the Xia Kingdom has strengthened its control over foreign visitors, it is difficult for senior members of the Skull Rose to enter the Xia Kingdom directly. They need to take multiple detours, use "stepping stones," or change their identities to enter the Xia Kingdom.
Jiang Chu was merely a small prey to Skull Rose, not even a strategic target. Therefore, Skull Rose didn't want to waste so much manpower; one Barkov was enough.
Barkov has been at the third level for quite some time now, and judging from his strength, capturing Jiang Chu alive would be a very easy thing for him.
Barkov was well aware of his own abilities.
He wasn't particularly arrogant, but he knew that capturing a second-tier opponent alive was a piece of cake for a third-tier opponent, unless the second-tier opponent's strength was exceptionally extraordinary.
However, based on the overall growth trajectory of the Longdu Army Brothers, Barkov felt that Jiang Chu's overall combat strength was at most 3500 points.
It's a pipe dream for someone with nearly 4200 points to fight against him with such a paltry number of points.
Barkov stopped wasting words with Jiang Chu. He gave a cold smile and lunged at Jiang Chu: "Die from talking too much!"
He simply uttered these four words to Jiang Chu.
Jiang Chu stopped talking and pounced on his opponent like an arrow released from a bow!
The instant their bodies crossed, Barkov threw a punch at Jiang Chu!
Barkov was carrying brass knuckles, which were of an extremely high level, reaching the top A rank, and possessed astonishing power.
But to Barkov's surprise, Jiang Chu not only did not avoid him, but instead retaliated with a heavy right fist!
Barkov only noticed that Jiang Chu was wearing finger cots.
Originally, these finger cots were part of Jiang Chu's disguise suit, and they had a chameleon effect, making them invisible to people with eyesight below 303.
However, Barkov's eyesight is very good.
This is also why Barkov was able to be promoted to a Class A member of the Skull Rose.
However, given Barkov's abilities, it would take him many years to reach senior management, and he would need to reach at least level 5.
Even as their fists collided, Barkov's face still wore a look of contempt.
Kid, I said I'd capture you alive, but that didn't mean I couldn't cripple you!
This is your own fault, this arm of yours is... huh?!
The violent impact caused Barkov to feel a tingling sensation in his left hand.
He is left-handed and his left hand is stronger, but in this clash with Jiang Chu, he felt that he did not gain any advantage at all!
Jiang Chu also took a few steps back, and immediately became somewhat angry.
Damn it!
Lao Tzu's strength is inferior to his? How could that be?
Again!
Jiang Chu dared to clash with Barkov for a very simple reason.
Because Jiang Chu's combat strength has already exceeded 4,000!
The concepts of breaking 4000 in the second order and breaking 4000 in the third order are completely different.
In comparison, a second-order 4000-point level is more valuable than a third-order 4000-point level level because it has a deeper foundation.
However, Barkov had no idea that Jiang Chu had actually broken the 4000-point mark in overall combat power.
If he had known, he wouldn't have made today's decision so rashly.
Enraged, Barkov raised his leg without hesitation and kicked straight at Jiang Chu's head!
This kick was incredibly fast, delivered less than three tenths of a second after the punch was thrown!
He had assumed that Jiang Chu wouldn't be able to react in time!
But to his surprise, Jiang Chu also raised his leg and launched a spinning kick straight at his leg!
What the hell is this?
Barkov was immediately enraged.
Who do you think you are? The Third Brother?
Do you think you're invulnerable, as tough as steel?
Fine, I'll grant your wish. I'll turn you into a cripple right now!
Barkov was ecstatic after exchanging blows with his feet.
His handsome face instantly turned into a bitter expression, and his tall and strong body actually fell headfirst out!
In terms of fist strength, Barkov was indeed very close to Jiang Chu, perhaps only slightly weaker. So when their fists collided, and with the protection of their weapons, he was not injured.
However, the two men's leg strength differed by at least one level!
In addition, Jiang Chu's SS2-level combat boots have a very high power attribute, which is far superior to Barkov's!
The next second, Barkov collapsed to the ground, filled with remorse.
That backfired.
Barkov felt a wave of despair.
He had previously planned to use his most skillful techniques to outwit Jiang Chu, stylishly knock him to the ground, say something pretentious, and then elegantly lead Jiang Chu away from the scene.
But unexpectedly, after two head-on clashes, he was completely exhausted.
At this point, his left calf was shattered, and he couldn't even stand steadily.
Barkov suddenly drew a Stechkin submachine gun from his waist.
But before he could pull the trigger, Jiang Chu rushed over like a rocket and kicked his gun-wielding arm!
Barkov felt a sharp pain in his arm and trembled as he released the pistol!
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chu used a series of skillful movements to subdue his opponent on the ground.
A few seconds later, Barkov and Jiang Chu had disappeared into the alley, and even the backpack that Jiang Chu had placed in the corner was gone.
