The marshal himself didn't want to fight a losing battle and lost tons of people under his wings for naught. He's not the only marshal serving the Godlif country.

  There were three other marshals beside him, and they were all secretly competing with each other.

  If he lost too many troops because of this war, he would be swallowed alive by the other marshals!

  Especially when the three marshals all had promising successors, but he still couldn't find a suitable one.

  The marshal was silent as he contemplated more about this war. He estimated whether his side could win the war or not and whether it was worth it to sacrifice so many troops…
He had to be honest that even if he could use his ghost fleet ability, he couldn't be sure they would win the war. The chance to win was even less than 50%.

  Should he continue the war? Or should he retreat? But the reinforcement would be here soon, and the total members would be around 10.000 troops.

  He had around 2000-3000 of his own people mixed there. So far, he had lost more than 1000 people, and he felt that it was a pity.

  Although he had more than 100.000 troops under his command, even reaching 500.000, he cherished all the talents and didn't want any of them to die in vain.

  This war to rob the Inheritance Stone…why can't they find a peaceful path to solve it, ah?

  Why the need to rob??

  Well, if Ainsley was weak, he also thought it's better to rob her.

  But is she weak?!

  The marshal really felt a heavy headache. On one side, he felt that he would be fighting a losing war and he would lose his men in vain.

  On the other hand, retreating just like this wasn't his style, and it would harm his reputation as a fierce marshal.

  It was also embarrassing to think they would lose the fight even before it started.

  Well, they had exchanged blows, and he had understood Ainsley's power thoroughly, which was why he didn't think he would win.

  Jake alone was already a headache for his navy.

  It's not like he is a pessimistic person. He just…knew when to advance and when to retreat.

  If he were overly arrogant and confident in this measly alliance formed in less than a day, he would have never become a marshal.

  The marshal was in a dilemma while Ainsley already didn't care too much about the war, knowing that her people could emerge victorious even if the enemies might have strange abilities.

  After all, Jake could use another ability if he wanted, and it didn't need to be water manipulation. He could have earthquake ability, tornado, and even weird ones.

  He's really the alliance's trump card!

  Now, Ainsley was more worried about her Sloan Family and what Raphael planned.

  Will he do anything to her family when she's busy with this war?

  Ainsley was really worried, but she also couldn't leave Pandora Island just yet. She had to finish the war as soon as possible before going back.

  Ainsley looked up at the sky that almost brightened up at this point.

  The enemy's reinforcement had just arrived a few minutes ago, and coincidentally, her side had already set up the barrier, covering the entire island once more.

  With 8000 troops on her side, it was now easier to take some people to guard the barrier-making machine.

  The situation was really a deadlock even when the second round of war would start anytime soon.

  After all, the island's defence was really tight, and the enemies would also have difficulty infiltrating the island while their people kept getting killed.

  At least the marshal took this variable into his consideration, and he further hesitated to start the second round of war.

  It could be said that this was the first time he had been so defeated, even when he got the best equipment.

  The environment, the timing, and the people weren't suitable to win the war.

  The government was too hasty to attack the island with just a day's preparation! Should they go back and secretly plan a better strategy to attack the island?

  The island wouldn't run, anyway.

  Even if the island now had around 8000 troops guarding it, if he doubled the number of their alliance's armies, wouldn't they have an easy win?

  He could also ask the government to have the other marshals involved in this war, as to share his burden.

  After all, the inheritance stone's mine was a big deal even for the government, right? Other countries might also think of owning the island after this incident.

  Ainsley hadn't thought about the possibility of other countries wanting to rob her island.

  In the end, the island was still in Godlif country territory, and if foreign countries attacked Pandora Island, it was the same as attacking Godlif country.

  Even if the Godlif country government disliked mafias, they also wouldn't side with outsiders since the mafias in Godlif Country were still counted as the country's own people.

  Ainsley even believed that if foreign countries dared to attack the island, the government would take this chance to 'help' Pandora Island and make Ainsley owe the government for their help.

  Then, it would be easier for the government to ask for some shares of the inheritance stone's mine while not switching sides to the mafia society.

  Not all enemies would end up as enemies all the time. For the government to accept the Aretha Family joining their alliance, wasn't that the solid proof of the saying above?

  Considering all the aspects above, Ainsley was calm as she waited for the enemy to start attacking, or abandon the plan and retreat.

  Now, marshal, choose. Advance, or retreat?
