The crisp sound of leather shoes hitting the stone floor echoed in the empty corridor.
Victor, with his blond hair hanging casually and wearing a luxurious black cloak, strolled leisurely along the spacious but deserted corridor. The high dome was covered with classical murals.
Behind him followed Perona, a girl with long pink hair wearing a black Gothic dress. She refused to put down the small umbrella in her hand even in the corridor.
The footsteps stopped, and the two stood in front of a lacquered wooden double door.
Zhi~~~Gah~~~~~!
With a scratchy scratching sound, the door was slowly pushed open by Victor. What came into view was an empty but closed stone chamber. There were no windows or torches, and only the dim light from the corridor outside the door illuminated the room.
, in the middle is a solid square iron prison. A short fat man wearing tattered suit trousers and his upper body covered with bandages is sitting in the middle of the cell with his eyes closed and meditating. It is Capone who was defeated at the hands of Victor.
Becky.
Perona trotted to the side of the room, lit the candle placed on the small raised platform on the wall, then pulled a chair and placed it directly in front of the cell.
Victor sat on the chair, looked at Capone Becky who seemed to be asleep, and said gently: "Mr. Becky, why are you here? You agreed to join our 'Coral' after the battle.
"
"Yes! I gave in at that time!!" A look of anger appeared on Capone Becky's face. He rushed to the cage, grabbed the steel fence and roared at Victor: "But there is no 'card' written in the agreement.
The purpose of the Capone Gang's merger into Coral is to disband all the Capone Gangs! You are not annexing us, but you want to completely destroy us!! I have devoted all my efforts to form the 'Capone Gang'! And you
The bastard just ruined everything with a flimsy agreement!"
"So you attacked Dr. Luerta who was treating your injuries? He is a true gentleman." Victor smiled, took out a box from his arms and opened it. Inside were two of the finest sticks produced on Wave Island.
Cigars. He handed the matches and cigar box to Capone Becky, who hesitated but took it.
Victor just watched quietly as Capone Becky lit the match and put the cigar on the fire skillfully but a little impatiently. It wasn't until Becky took two puffs of the cigar and showed a satisfied expression that he said gently: "
Mr. Becky, I know there are some misunderstandings between us, so you see, I am here and want to communicate with you."
Becky's face was shrouded in smoke. He was silent for a few seconds and then asked: "A gangster who doesn't care about money, women, or power. Mafia Victor, what are you planning?"
Victor leaned forward slightly, smiled and said softly: "This world."
Capone Becky was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. He laughed so wantonly and wildly that Perona, who was standing behind Victor, looked annoyed.
After a long time, Becky finally stopped laughing, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said sarcastically: "Oh Victor, my dear boss... You are indeed young and talented, but your strength is inferior to those monsters.
, nothing.”
Faced with such naked ridicule, Victor was not angry. He stood up and walked to the cage, leaned over and whispered a few words to Becky. These few words shocked Capone Becky's face and he turned pale.
He took a few steps back, looked at Victor in shock and murmured: "You are really crazy... crazy..."
This time it was no longer ridicule, but panicked self-comfort.
Victor showed a joking smile: "Mr. Becky, is this all you have? Come on, a magnificent era is coming. Take my boat and you will have the opportunity to see the scenery at the top of the world."
Capone Becky sipped his cigar one after another while Victor patiently waited for his reply.
After a long time, Becky threw the butt of the cigar to the ground and asked in a hoarse voice: "What are your plans?"
A smile appeared on the corner of Victor's mouth: "First, let's go to the Kingdom of Flowers."
"The Kingdom of Flowers? That Kingdom of Martial Arts? Can I ask where we are going and what we are doing, boss?" Becky put on a tattered suit jacket.
"There is the 'power' I need." Victor watched Perona open the cell door and responded to Capone Becky.
Early morning two days later.
"Boss! Take me with you! I will definitely not hold you back!"
A large and conspicuous merchant ship was moored at the Sound Pier in the north of Alghero town. On the pier, a group of gangsters in black were seeing Victor off, but a little skinny monkey excitedly recommended himself to Victor.
"Stupid monkey Mim! My brother is going to the Kingdom of Flowers to discuss arms business! You are not allowed to cause trouble!" Perona was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and yelled at the skinny boy. She would have taken action if Victor hadn't stopped him.
The skinny little boy called Mim ignored Perona at all. He just looked at Victor with admiration and said excitedly: "Boss Victor! Please, I will definitely be able to make a difference! I, I have been practicing for a long time.
Yes! Look!" As he spoke, he hurriedly rolled up his sleeves to expose his dry little arms, trying to squeeze out some muscle.
Capone Becky, who was standing behind Victor, curled his lips in disgust and asked in a low voice to the black-haired man beside him: "Kransner, what's going on with this little monkey?"
The man being questioned had black hair shawl, wore a black windbreaker and a gentleman's hat, and held a pure wooden civilized staff. He replied with a smile: "Mr. Capone may not know much about Mim. He was originally from Nar.
An orphan from the slums of Wa Town was caught stealing bread once, but it was Boss Victor who saved him. From then on, he worshiped the boss as his idol."
In fact, things were not as simple as Krasner said. At that time, Mim was about to starve to death. He couldn't bear it anymore and had to take a desperate risk and went to the notoriously mean and stingy 'Dodorberry Bakery' to steal some food.
However, his hands and feet were weak due to hunger and he was discovered by his boss. Just when he was about to be beaten to death, Victor, who was on a local mission, discovered and rescued him.
Victor paid double the amount of bread in advance for Mim, bandaged Mim's wounds with his own hands and left him all the packaged food he bought from the restaurant. Mim, who had been abandoned since childhood and didn't know what love was, felt care for the first time.
' and 'Warmth'. He tried every possible means to find out about Victor's origins, and secretly took a passenger ship to the town of Alghero to join the 'Coral' organization, and through hard work became a subordinate of cadre Victor.
On the dock, Victor was helplessly dealing with Mim's entanglement. To be honest, he didn't want to take Mim to the Kingdom of Flowers, not because he looked down on Mim, but because this journey was really dangerous. Apart from the necessary crew members for the voyage, Victor only had
They brought with them the new consultant Perona, the new warehouse manager Capone Becky and the cadre Krasna Edmund. The latter is a very outstanding cadre in the 'Coral' organization, but it is a pity that he was jealous of Pippin in the past.
Suppress.
Victor thought for a while, then asked Mim with a straight face: "If you insist on getting on the ship, then you must agree to one condition - you must obey Perona's orders unconditionally."
Mim turned his head with difficulty to look at Perona who was sneering, and bowed fiercely to Victor: "Please don't worry, boss!"
Victor nodded, then turned to look at the white-haired old man who had been standing quietly aside, and said softly: "Mr. Windrew, please look after the gang during my absence."
"Please rest assured, boss." The old man bowed slightly and said respectfully: "I wish you good luck in martial arts."
Victor showed a smile. This old man was very smart and probably guessed the real purpose of his trip.
"Okay, everyone, get on the boat! Let's go to the Kingdom of Flowers!"
