Chapter 1681 Completely Stunned

Gilbert knew that he couldn't just bestow Rocky the power to be the deputy leader. After all, it would be like nurturing a snake in his bosom. He wouldn't know when Rocky would bite him to his death. On second thought, if he didn't grant Rocky the power to be his deputy, he might lose the young man's trust. In that case, he might refuse to fight alongside him to resist the other powerful leaders.
