The pirate leader was also furious, nervous and angry, he raised his machete and shouted, "Prepare me $5 million at once, or I'll kill him!" ”

“OK、OK！”

Barney Ross raised his hands and said, "I won't move, neither will my people, don't hurt the hostages, don't you just want money, you won't get a penny for tearing up the ticket now." ”

"You want 5 million, right, right here, you can come and get it yourself."

"It's okay to send someone over."

As she spoke, Christmas threw a snakeskin bag to the ground, the bag was untied, and stacks of Franklin fell out, glittering with gold, attracting the attention of all the pirates.

Their eyes lit up!

USD!

At this moment, only to hear a loud bang, Gunner sneered and fired the first cannon, directly hitting the neck of the pirate leader, and the head flew out in an instant, and with a biaji, it hit the cruise ship.

The other members of the death squad also shot at the same time.

Barney Ross pulled the trigger six times in two seconds and killed four pirates.

The throwing knives of Christmas were also thrown out at the same time, killing 3 more people.

Yin and Yang, Thor, and Caesar shot at the same time.

The situation was reversed in an instant, the death squad had already controlled the situation at the scene, 9 pirates were killed, and the remaining 6 people were almost scared to pee, and before they could react, they were taken down by the other party.

The death squad then began to clean up the scene, some were in charge of the hostages, some were in charge of guarding the remaining pirates, and some were doing their job.

Gunner, the violent maniac, had brought a pirate to the deck and tied a rope around his neck, ready to hang him.

Barney Rose, Christmas, Yin Yang and the others looked up.

Barney Rose asked, "What does he want to do?" ”

Christmas said, "Hang the pirate." ”

"No kidding!"

Barney Rose criticized in serious weight and immediately shouted at Gunner, "Gunna, what do you want to do?" ”

Gunner said, "As you can see, hang the pirate!" ”

Barney Ross: "......"

Christmas shrugged her shoulders with the same expression as I said it

"What a madman." Yin Yang shook his head and said, "This is not our way of doing things, he will harm our team sooner or later." ”

Barney Rose was expressionless and said, "It's crazy enough, but it's still manageable." ”

Christmas tilted his head at Barney Ross and said, "Next, you're up to yourself." ”

"Thank you." Barney Ross was still expressionless and said, "It's good to have friends. ”

This is the characteristic dry humor between them.

"Hey! Gunner, let him go! ”

Barney Rose yelled at Gunner on deck, "You hear the words of yin and yang, we have our own principles, and this is not our way of doing things, because we are not beasts. ”

"Let him go now, or you'll die!"

He didn't just talk, he pulled out his gun and aimed it at Gunner on the deck.

Gunner spread his hands and wondered, "These guys have hanged our people? ”

Barney Ross said calmly: "Do you have to bite the dog to death if the dog bites you?" Calm down Gunna, I repeat, we are not beasts! ”

The two sides confronted each other.

In the midst of the confrontation, Yin and Yang had quietly touched the deck, fought with Gunna, and saved the hostage.

A few minutes later, the episode came to an end.

When it was all over, Barney Ross received a personal phone call, and his face changed instantly.

After a brief chat, he hung up the phone.

Seeing that his old partner didn't look right, Christmas knew that something was happening, so he immediately approached him and asked, "What happened again?" ”

"The Corleone family wants to hire me."

Barney Rose's face is not very good-looking.

Christmas frowned and said, "The Corleone family hired us?" They can't solve it on their own, they have to come to us? ”

Barney Ross corrected, "It's hiring me, not us." ”

"No matter how gentlemanly the mafia people appear on the surface, what they do is also murder and arson, which violates the principles of our death squads."

"I owe them a favor, not you."

Christmas sneered and complained, "Come on Barney, I really want to find a mirror so you can see how ridiculous you are!" ”

"A trouble that even the Corleone family can't solve, what level will it be?"

"Do you think we're going to leave you alone and let you play single-handedly, King Hero? No kidding, you don't have this chance! ”

Barney Rosen opened his mouth and wanted to say more, but he was blocked by Christmas and had no chance at all.

Christmas made a gesture to count the money, and said with a smile: "The most important thing is that the Corleone family is definitely willing to pay a high price for this level of trouble!" ”

"Yin and yang, what do you say?"

Yin Yang looked serious and said seriously: "Everyone loves Franklin. ”

Barney Rose had nothing to say, so he had to agree, and said in a deep voice: "Good! With this side of the matter dealt with, we immediately set off for the Persian Gulf! ”

——

Time is in a hurry, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and it has come to September 19, 1987!

It is only 30 days before the outbreak of the global stock market crash!

Due to Azu's crazy actions half a month ago, the battle for the right to trade underground oil was surging in an instant.

Mike Corleone was intercepted by SG, and the news spread throughout the Persian Gulf as quickly as possible, much to the chasid's annoyance.

Countless leaders have threatened to give God's whip a good look.

SG's audacious move completely angered them!

Mike Corleone is the face of the mafia, and they intercept Mike Corleone halfway, not just the Corleone family.

It is the whole mafia that offends!

After that, Mike Corleone obediently offered $5 million with both hands, and Azu accepted it calmly, which completely angered the other party.

For the people of the rivers and lakes, face is of course very important, but if it is compared with interests, it is nothing.

SG, on the other hand, made them famous after doing this.

Originally, there were some small forces that wanted to challenge them and test their strength, but after this happened, those guys didn't dare to move anymore, and they came up to move the representatives elected by the mafia, which was really too crazy and completely scared them.

This is the contradiction between SG and the mafia, so let them fight, they can just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, just watch the show, maybe there is something cheap to take advantage of.

After Mike Corleone obediently offered $5 million, the Persian Gulf fell into an eerie calm.

Azu's actions affected the whole body, completely intensified the contradiction between SG and the mafia, and made the battle between the two sides instantly become white-hot.

Intervening at this time is tantamount to cannon fodder.

Not only will you not get any benefits, but you will also lose a lot of money and put yourself in a dilemma.

Mike Corleone's goal has also been achieved!

The Corleone family still wants to be faced, and if they don't agree, forget it, once they agree, they will definitely do it.

In doing so, he maintained the dignity of the Corleone family.

Mike not only saved the face of the Corleone family, but also made everyone see SG's arrogance, domineering and madness.

If they don't respect people of his status and status, who else will they respect?

While calculating these, Mike did not forget to engage in military and armed competition, constantly consolidating his strength, buying all kinds of arms and weapons, and hiring all kinds of top mercenaries.

The death squad is an outstanding representative of this.

All the preparations were completed in just a few days, and the anger of the other bigwigs was ignited, and the crowd was furious, and they all demanded that SG get out.

It's their territory!

The best time to start a war has come, and Mike Corleone did not hesitate to give the order to go to war.

Mike Corleone's preparation was not perfect, but he still made a fatal mistake.

While he was preparing, SG was also preparing.

And he underestimated the strength of the SG, especially the intelligence capabilities of those people, as well as the assassination capabilities!

In the following days, the two sides fought fiercely, and both suffered heavy losses.

Mafia forces are deeply entrenched.

God's Whip, a mercenary organization that has only been around for more than half a year, is still far behind them.

In this contest, although they both suffered heavy losses, they still had the upper hand.

The winner seems to have been decided.

Many bigwigs on the mafia side are triumphant and have already prepared champagne and beauties to celebrate.

It was at this moment that the unexpected happened.

Assassination, begin!

At least 4 high-level leaders were killed, and even Tom Hagen, the military advisor of the Corleone family, was shot twice in the abdomen and almost killed.

Everyone knew that SG would fight back, but no one expected that their counterattack would be so ferocious!

If the fight continues like this, it will be an endless mutual killing, and Mike Corleone may not be able to retreat with his whole body.

At present, the two sides have seen what strength each other has, and neither can completely swallow the other, so there is no point in continuing to fight like this.

After careful consideration, Mike Corleone didn't care what Sheng Tianbu was delaying, and directly proposed a general idea to the SG executives.

And this idea, which eventually led to the birth of an unregulated boxing match that caused a sensation in the global underground world.

The K1 World Series is here! ——

Shengtian Group Headquarters.

Li Jie and Aki reported the latest situation in Tongsheng Tianbu.

Due to personality reasons, Sheng Tianbu did not send Li Jie to the Middle East or Africa, but he has begun to take over the related work, which is naturally confidential, and not many people know.

Now his identity on the face is the agent of the big star Long Wei.

Recently, Dongzheng Media is discussing cooperation with the Longwei team.

As Longwei's agent, Li Jie came to the Starlight Building to negotiate work, which is reasonable and reasonable, and no one will doubt it.

Aki is mainly responsible for the affairs of the Hong Kong Olympic Games.

He reported on his work first, not only on the affairs of the Hong Kong Olympic rivers and lakes, but also on the dispute between Temple Street and Guanyong, and the situation of Sima Nianzu and the 12 Shao was the focus of the report.

Sheng Tianbu instructed: "Aki, Sima Nianzu, the twelve young people, you continue to watch, if there is no major matter, you don't have to report, you can deal with it yourself." ”

Aki said: "Yes, Brother Tian." ”

Sheng Tianbu looked at Li Jie and said, "Ajie, what's the situation over there?" ”

Li Jie said: "The situation is a little bad, but now the situation has stabilized. ”

Li Jie reported on the development of SG in Africa and the Middle East.

Nothing happened on the African side, and SG is in full swing.

Of course, there are some minor troubles, but Abu himself can solve them, and the SG has expanded to a thousand people.

SG is undoubtedly a mercenary organization, but whether it is in Africa or the Middle East, they carry out their activities under the name of Hong Kong Island International Resources Trading Co., Ltd.

Nominally, they were security personnel hired by the Island International Resources Trading Company.

For example, in the international trade of resources, this kind of behavior of hanging sheep's heads and selling dog meat has been well understood by many European and American conglomerates, and they have been playing this way since the eighteenth century.

The most notorious was the East India Company.

In the past, they relied on the ferocity of their guns and artillery to recklessly plunder the resources of other countries and regions, but now they have to consider face and international influence and cover up a little.

But the essence of plundering has never changed.

Sheng Tianbu established Hong Kong Island International for this purpose.

Even if the SG thunderstorm lasts for another ten years, it can also dissociate itself from Shengtian Group, after all, SG is only a security guard invited by Hong Kong Island International, as long as the explanation on the surface is acceptable.

Listening to Li Jie's report on African affairs and good development, Sheng Tianbu nodded with satisfaction and said, "What about the Persian Gulf?" ”

Li Jie said: "The situation is like this......"

"K1 World Series?"

Sheng Tianbu's expression became a little strange.

K is the first letter of Kickboxing, which means kickboxing, and 1 stands for first, top, which is the origin of K1.

In real history, there was also a K1 tournament, but it didn't appear until 1993, and the person who founded the contest was named Kazuyoshi Ishii, who was the director of the Kuangkuni Shodo Hall.

However, the K1 founded by Kazuyoshi Ishii is naturally different from the K1 in the underground world.

The former has detailed rules in terms of participants' weight, rules, equipment, etc., with the aim of ensuring that there are no accidents in this world-class event.

The accident here mainly refers to the dead person.

However, the K1 tournament in the underworld is irregular, and there may be some restrictions on equipment, but there are no rules about the details of weight.

As long as you feel like you're strong enough, you're good to go!

Sheng Tianbu's expression was strange, he never thought that after this fight, Mike Corleone would actually use such a childish method to end the dispute.

Do you dare to make any more drama if such a major event as the right to trade underground oil has to be decided through a boxing match?

Li Jie said: "Yes, it's the K1 World Series. ”

"What the Corleone family means is that as long as the forces in the Persian Gulf have a firm foothold, they can participate, and the final result will determine the share of underground oil trading rights."

Sheng Tianbu's eyes flashed, and he had already guessed what Mike was planning, and couldn't help laughing: "This Corleone godfather is not only ruthless enough, but also smart enough, K1 World Series ......"

"Applejack, you inform Azu and Zovi."

"Let them prepare a little, and in three days I will be on my way to the Persian Gulf."

Li Jie nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Aki said: "Brother Tian, the situation over there is unstable, I'll go with you!" ”

Sheng Tianbu shook his head and said, "Aki, you remember, no matter how we develop in the future, the Hong Kong Olympics are our base camp, and even if we lose badly, we can't lose the base camp." ”

"Because this is our basic disk, as long as the basic disk is still there, we can turn over at any time."

"Hong Kong Olympics, there must be no problems."

"When I am away, the high-level leaders of Ah Yao, Paris, Yang Du, and Song Lian are in charge, and you and Ah Jie are in charge of the Hong Kong Olympic rivers and lakes."

"Understood?"

Aki nodded and said solemnly: "Understood!" ”
