Chapter 19: Gangsters
When the man with the broken arm woke up, he was already on a large bed.
The wound has been treated urgently, but the lost left arm will never come back, but at least the life is still there.
Although I have been mentally prepared, I am still a little bitter at this time.
"Awake?"
A voice came, and only then did he suddenly notice that there was another person in the room.
A man with two knives hanging from his waist.
"You saved me?"
Bill asked, and in his last memory, it was a man with red hair and a red trench coat, a far cry from this one. But it is not excluded that I have lost my eyes when I am confused.
"You can think so, after all, I slaughtered the guy who played the puppet"
The man smiled, as if killing one of the five masters of hell was as simple as killing a chicken.
"Thank you so much, what do you need for someone like you? As long as I have it, I can give it to you. β
Bill smiled bitterly, knowing in his heart that during the period of his disappearance, according to that man's methods, I am afraid that most of Gunuki's territory will be taken over by that man.
What is left of their own power............
"I know what you're thinking, there's good news for you. You haven't lost your territory, and with that guy watching for you, you haven't lost anything at all. But that's up to you next. β
Bill was shocked, that guy? Sure enough, it must have been the red-haired man.
The evil spirits in the world are under his control, and all the ghosts and ghosts in the world call him king......
He struggled to sit up with the pain, and asked tremblingly, "Your Excellency, who are you??" β
When did the terrifying forces that can kill demons at their fingertips appear in Gunuki? What is their purpose?
The man shook his hand to signal him not to get excited, and then said, "You don't need to know who we are for a while, and our main purpose is not this place. Of course, it can also be. However, if you want, we can work together. We'll help you take Gunuki, and you'll work for us. β
Bill didn't seem too surprised, or maybe he had guessed something just now.
How can someone who can be the boss of a party be an idiot.
He pulled out a pack of cigarettes, shook out one and handed it to the man.
"Killers don't smoke."
The man directly refused.
He lit a cigarette silently alone, and he still heard a little about the quirky character of many killers, and he was not surprised by this.
After two hard puffs, then exhaled a cloud of smoke, he opened the subject.
It turns out that there are a total of nine major forces in the lawless land of Gunuki, including a pirate force.
Of course, in the final analysis, the other eight forces have not had much conflict with that pirate force, and the well water has not interfered with the river water over the years.
It's only since this year that Whitebeard's death and another pirate has been chasing and killing Whitebeard's remnants that the female pirate has been busy taking care of herself, and the rest of the gang has slowly encroached on some of her territory.
Many people have a hunch that the female pirate is almost over.
Either move your family, or you have to die like this.
Whatever the outcome, it is their gangsters who ultimately benefit.
However, it was because of this fuse that the eight forces that fought openly and secretly on weekdays united with the outside world, intending to squeeze out the female pirates first.
That's why there was the deal of the Nebula Building.
And, what I didn't expect was that seven of these forces were plotted by hell!
The hell who proposed the party transaction had ill intentions, and used the organizer's advantageous design to wipe out the remaining seven forces!
It has to be said that the treacherous man's plan was successful, and if it wasn't for Thor's intervention, he would have wiped out the other seven forces long ago.
Bill laughed miserably, looked at Yu Kui and said, "Can you imagine that mastermind, two years ago, he was still an ant that we could bully at will?" Half a year ago, in order to survive, he knelt at my feet like a dog and licked my shoes. β
"Yes."
Yukui replied with an expressionless face.
The kind of people who do whatever it takes to survive are really terrible.
This kind of person, as long as there is still a breath left, he will hide in the corner and lie dormant, recuperate, and when you relax, suddenly launch a fatal blow.
Bill laughed silently, and after this change, he seemed to be dozens of years old.
What really pained him was not the physical from the broken arm, but the mental setbacks.
He closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and when he opened them again, there was no decadence.
"Your Excellency, please help me. When I take the forces under the Gunu base, I will entrust my life to Your Excellency! β
Bill fell to his knees, his forehead touching the ground.
You Kui snorted, and couldn't help but look a little better at this man.
Sure enough, the real strong person is not only strong in strength, but also strong in heart.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
With Bill's "guide", Yukui knows this place thoroughly.
Because of its remote location, there is no naval station.
In the early days, there was a navy, but the navy at that time was also extremely corrupt, oppressing the people and lying about the military situation......
It can be said that the navy was the first batch of gangsters.
Until someone rose up and formed the first gang......
Naturally, it was severely suppressed at the beginning, but when there were signs, this corrupt navy could not be suppressed.
A few years later, the first navy was also killed and wounded. Instead, the gangsters found that the upper rank of the naval liaison officer was also a virtue, and as long as you gave him benefits on a regular basis, you could do whatever you wanted in this ghost place where the mountain was high and the emperor was far away.
And the person at the top, who doesn't seem to be sending him money online, is the Navy or a gangster......
With this layer of umbrella, the gangsters of this place officially took over the Gunuki.
"Unlike many people think, we gangsters don't fight and kill every day, and we also have formal industries, such as the Nebula Building. Seven or eight out of ten entertainment venues and high-end consumption places in this city are the industries of our various forces. We are also businessmen, capitalists. It's just that some of the means don't see the light of day. β
Bill laughed to himself, he sat at the table and negotiated contracts more than he did.
You Kui nodded thoughtfully. He knows that many underground forces actually have something to do, otherwise those little brothers under his command will follow you and wait to starve to death?
You can't rob houses like bandits every day.
This is actually the same as pirates, the real pirates, such as Crocodahl, Doflamingo, and even the Four Emperors Kaido and others, have their own companies, industries, and factories under their names.
In other words, they are the ones who are successful.
Not surprisingly, Thor who was aiming at Kurokas naturally had similar plans.
The so-called standing firm is not drifting with the wind like rootless duckweed.
However, there is still one thing that Bill didn't say, and it is estimated that the means are dishonorable, so he didn't say it.
This place, not only entertainment venues and high-end consumption places are related to them, but all industries, no matter how big or small, are related to them. Including a normal snack bar on the side of the road!
Running any product in this place is competing with the gangsters, and the only way to coexist is to "stand".
To put it bluntly, it is to pay protection money to the gangsters in the territory under its jurisdiction. Depending on the industry, the protection fee paid will vary.
The gangsters are in charge of the security of your store.
In a way, it's a win-win situation for both sides.
This phenomenon exists all over the world, but in many places there is another term: paying taxes.
Yu Kui suddenly laughed, if there is a gangster, it is big enough to a certain extent, will it become a second government?
Startled by the sudden laughter, Bill coughed dryly, retracted his laughter, regained his old-fashioned expression, and motioned for Bill to continue.
"Now that the economy of this place is facing saturation, in fact, many industries are losing money. This is also the fundamental reason for the constant friction between many forces in recent years. The reason why the boss of hell is doing this, on the one hand, is that this good time is a once-in-a-lifetime time, and on the other hand, he has the thinnest foundation, and his finances have bottomed out. β
Bill extinguishes the cigarette, which is already the third.
"This time Hell suddenly attacked, and it was actually a ruin to attack the seven major forces. Although the leaders of each faction were killed, it was impossible to take down all the factions without blood. Therefore, this period can be said to be his weakest time. And once he was given time to digest what he had swallowed, there was no doubt that Gunuki was his world. β
"You want to attack him now??"
Yukui gently rubbed the hilt of the knife.
"Yes!" Bill slammed his fist to the ground and snapped, "This is the last and best chance!" He must have annexed a lot of territory now, and his men have scattered out to suppress the new territory. There is only one consequence of this. β
"Defend the emptiness around you!"
"Defend the emptiness around you!"
The two said this in unison, and then looked at each other and smiled.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
If you want to do it, you must be prepared, and it is impossible to rush over with just two people.
Bill took You Kui to rush towards his own territory, and met many black-clothed people along the way, but they were all dodged by Bill, who was familiar with the territory.
The two arrived at Bill's territory and then entered a spa club.
When the front desk lady saw him, she covered her mouth and trembled in surprise.
Bill, who looked cold, nodded and said, "Don't tell anyone else I'm coming." The VIP rooms on the 5th floor are temporarily closed. Except for those who said I had invited them, no one else was allowed in. β
Bill took off his necklace and handed it to the front desk lady, "Take it to your manager and relay my words to her, she knows what to do." β
The front desk lady reached out and hurried to hold the chain that had been thrown on the side of the road and no one had picked it up.
Bill took the key card from the other person and went straight to the fifth floor.
When I got to the fifth floor, there was no one here because it was daytime, and the lights were not even turned on.
Even if it's not the first time to come to this kind of place, Yukui has to say that this place does have something that makes people shine.
This floor is divided into: lobby lounge area, massage room, restaurant, entertainment area.
The dΓ©cor is tasteful and someone must have designed it.
You Kui walked to the bar very consciously, took two bottles of the best red wine, then threw one to Bill, opened it himself and drank it.
Thinking that such a bottle of wine can make an ordinary white-collar worker work hard for more than half a year on weekdays, and can use such a bottle of wine to make an appointment with a woman with a good appearance, You Kui feels comfortable.
In the face of such a waste of expensive red wine, Bill naturally has no opinion, in fact, let alone a bottle of red wine, it is this club, as long as You Kui speaks, he will give it away without blinking his eyes, and he is happy.
From the moment he sat down, Bill kept on the phone.
After more than an hour, Bill put down the phone and took a sip of wine, "A lot of people don't answer the phone, either because they're bad or they're waiting to stand." Of the remaining people, three promised to help us and promised to come and join the alliance. β
You Kui nodded, he listened to all the calls just now, this Bill is really not shallow, even the three people who promised to come over to accompany him to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, and fight to break the net, he didn't tell them the opportunity, and he didn't even reveal that he was about to start.
In this way, it is also avoided that some of those people have already defected to the Hell organization and turned undercover.
Bill doesn't do this to eliminate undercover, but at least he can take advantage of a time difference, and if he uses it properly, it can even have a surprise effect.
Yu Kui comforted him that he was not bad, if there was none, they didn't have to do it yet.
Bill smiled wryly and nodded.
After a while, someone came to the fifth floor.
It's not the helper he contacts, it's the manager of the clubhouse.
A woman in her thirties, dressed in professional attire, looks extremely capable.
At the same time, the excellent figure and delicate face make people shine.
As soon as she entered, she threw herself into Bill's arms, who was at least ten years older than her, and caressed his severed arm and wept bitterly.
"It's okay, am I still alive?"
Bill's whole body became gentle.
You Kui hooked the corners of his mouth, it seems that this woman is Bill's weakness.
After crying for a while, Bill patted her on the back and whispered, "Okay, get up, there's still someone watching." This is my savior, Yukui, who is very powerful, and he will help me get out of hell. β
The woman wiped her tears, straightened her hair, stood up, bowed to Youkui, and said coquettishly, "Thank you for saving my boss, thank you very much, if you need it in the future, just ask." β
The image before and after changed very quickly, and even You Kui had to praise it.
What a courtesan.
