The man seemed a little afraid of him and snorted.
"This is a recording of his matches in the Heavens Arena... Take a good look!" The middle-aged man's gaze swept over the people in the room, and he instructed.
After speaking, he took the lead in finding a chair to sit down.
The TV screen switched and began to play.
The man on the sofa also turned his gaze over.
For a time, the hall became quiet except for the sound of the television.
After a while, several videotapes had finished playing. As the security captain of the Fiers Family, the middle-aged man looked at his four colleagues, "Rhode has been killed by him... Just a few hours ago. Judging from the situation described by Gaku, Rhode had no power to fight back at all, and was almost instantly killed."
"..."
The few people exchanged glances.
"Rhode was originally the weakest of us... When that guy came to apply, I said... Letting him join would hold us back... You just wouldn't listen." The man in pajamas, who had spoken first, looked at the middle-aged man and sneered.
He didn't talk about the issue concerning Oboro, but instead made accusations first.
"He's a Conjurer... But his fighting style and methods are more like an Enhancer."
A person standing in the corner spoke.
"It's best not to let him get close... His abilities seem to be very changeable. Besides the initial method of summoning 'soldiers', we can't see any other clues for the time being." The Nen user sitting with the middle-aged man, pinched his chin and analyzed.
"I don't need to say the important things... The boss will be here soon too... This Oboro is very strong! We must minimize the risk of various emergencies and events, and make everything controllable. The boss's safety is the top priority... If something happens, none of you can afford it!"
The middle-aged man emphasized coldly.
"Especially you, Bot!"
"Yes, I know..."
The pajama man said perfunctorily.
"Next, I'll formulate a security plan, and you guys can add to it!"
Afterwards, the middle-aged man began to arrange things.
After a while, after giving instructions... the three people walked out of the hall one after another.
Bot and his girlfriend sat motionless on the sofa. The man looked at the closed door and spat softly: "What is he, he just came a few years earlier than me... An old dog."
"Bot, don't be angry... I think this is a good opportunity."
The woman lying in his arms said euphemistically.
"What do you mean?"
Bot heard the implication.
"If... if..." The woman chuckled, put her mouth close to the man's ear, and whispered a few words.
After listening, Bot's lazy face immediately perked up and became much more serious.
"My baby is still the smartest~~"
"Silly, it's all for you."
"Hahaha."
...
Oboro followed the Mafia members back to city by car and arrived at a manor.
"Get out of the car."
Someone opened the car door and said, looking at Oboro, who seemed to be asleep.
It was the first time they had seen an outsider be so relaxed before meeting the boss.
"Are we there?"
Oboro opened his eyes, stretched, and got out of the car.
"Follow me, don't get any funny ideas, otherwise you'll be responsible for the consequences if something happens." The man with glasses, who was standing in front, reminded.
Oboro raised both hands, indicating that he was very honest.
The two entered the manor one after the other. What Oboro noticed first was not the conspicuous castle standing there, but the surveillance cameras all around... and countless Mafia members guarding and patrolling, with a distance of only a few dozen meters between them. These bodyguards were wearing headphones and communication devices, and each of them had sharp eyes, constantly watching Oboro's every move, and quietly reporting.
There were also many hounds chained up and barking... They looked very fierce.
Oboro's ears hurt from the noise, and he casually glanced at a group of large dogs.
Instantly... the barking stopped.
The bodyguards were shocked and found that the big dogs beside them were all tucking their tails in, and some were even leaking urine... Struggling violently to break free from the ropes, seemingly wanting to escape.
Oboro withdrew his gaze.
Strict.
A word appeared in his mind.
Were all Mafia bosses so afraid of death?...
It did fit their identity and cautious style.
In the original work, the Ten Dons, as the managers of the underworld forces, also rarely appeared in public, after all, they were playing the underworld game, and they had too many enemies... They had to consider their own safety.
He saw that the ground in the manor was still covered with weeds that hadn't been cleaned up, indicating that this wasn't the Fiers Family's base camp... It was very likely that it had been temporarily moved here.
"I'm quite honored..."
Oboro curled his lips.
The man with glasses in front looked back at him and led him into the castle.
After going up the stairs, they turned into a long corridor and finally stopped in front of a metal armored door.
A middle-aged man with gray hair stood in front of the door.
There were also plenty of people inside the building, equipped with weapons.
"Nen user..."
Oboro noticed.
"The boss is waiting for you inside." The middle-aged man nodded to the man with glasses, looked Oboro up and down, and spoke.
Immediately, he turned around and pushed open the door, revealing the magnificent hall inside.
"Please!"
The middle-aged man reached out and stepped aside.
Oboro stepped in on his own. Directly in front of him, there was a figure smoking a cigar, sitting in a boss's chair, with his back to him.
In front of the desk, there was a battered and unrecognizable guy lying down, already unconscious, it was Charlie.
"1, 2, 3..."
Oboro's eyeballs rolled, and he counted.
Besides him and the boss, there were four people in the hall... No, there should be five.
Because the middle-aged man behind him had already walked in and closed the door.
A couple wearing revealing clothes, who seemed to be lovers, were sitting on the sofa.
A male secretary was standing next to the Mafia boss. In a corner of the hall upstairs, there was also someone hidden. Although the aura was hidden well, Oboro still noticed it.
In total... five Nen users!
A big lineup!
"You're very brave..."
Suddenly, the boss sitting in the leather chair, said, "Daring to steal money from my casino!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
Oboro smiled wryly.
"..."
The people at the scene didn't expect him to answer like this, and their breathing paused for a moment.
"Your casino is open, and you dare to be the bookmaker, so naturally you're not afraid of people betting. It's just... I'm lucky, and I bet right every time..."
Whoosh.
The leather chair turned around, revealing the true face of the man with a cigar in his mouth.
He had a very good aura, definitely a person in a high position, and also had a bit of the aristocratic feeling of a socialite.
He looked younger than Oboro thought...
He looked to be less than forty years old, dressed impeccably, and wearing several expensive rings on both hands.
"Fiers Garu, my name."
The boss wasn't angry and said lightly, "The betting in the Heavens Arena has always been the main source of income for my casinos... It's not like no one has tried to take advantage of it over the years, what do you think... happened to them?"
Oboro waited for the following words.
"Not only them, but also their families... have to pay the price for the mistakes they made!"
"You're talented... So, I'll give you a chance."
"How so?"
Oboro raised an eyebrow.
"Spit out the money... and work for me."
"What if I refuse?"
Oboro answered.
"Refuse? Refuse and die... Are we really going to let you two go?" The man on the sofa said mockingly.
He was referring to Charlie, and Oboro.
"I know... you so-called fighters, martial artists, are more or less mavericks... But this world is dominated by a few people, and power is the only thing! To put it nicely, you're talented, and you're lucky enough to join my family... To put it bluntly, people like you are just a bunch of stray dogs wandering around... Being looked at by someone like me is your honor, and your only value."
