The butler David, who received the news, led Miss Lily, escorted by his subordinates, back to the group headquarters from the 'safe house'.
It ended too quickly... They originally thought that this battle would last all night.
Getting out of the car, David saw Oboro.
The man stood in the middle of a 'mountain of corpses and a sea of blood'... What was strange was that the Mafia members, who were also members of the Fiers Family, who had witnessed this great battle, and had survived by chance, all looked terrified and didn't dare to approach Oboro, as if this new family head was some kind of flood or beast.
A bright moon hung over Oboro's head, and in the dim light, there was a silver glow falling... Coupled with his relaxed expression and bloody torso, it gave the butler David a feeling that was both harmonious and distorted.
This scene... was deeply imprinted in David's mind.
"David."
Lily, who was being held by David's hand, sensed the absent-minded butler, and called out softly.
"Ah..."
David came to his senses, and took another deep look at Oboro, and looked at Lily: "Miss... Don't worry, it's all over."
"Our family head... is safe and sound."
Kenny Gole's death caused this Mafia force to quickly collapse and disintegrate.
Originally, there were still some elites of the Kenny Family who wanted to resist, but they were helpless in the face of the Fiers Family's 'annexation and erosion'.
That newly appointed Fiers Family head, Oboro.
This man was too terrifying... No one knew what he had done, or how he had done it!
The Kenny Family's cadres above the high-level almost all wiped out, dying violently, in just a few days.
The Fiers Family took over the Kenny Family's smuggling business, and its power was not only consolidated, but also further enhanced.
This was something that other Mafia organizations in the territory hadn't expected. They all thought that it would be the Fiers who would be wiped out...
Gradually, some news also spread in the underworld society.
...
The next day, in a magnificent building built on a hillside, like a palace.
A short-haired man with blond hair and blue eyes, and a resolute outline, stood in front of a wall hanging with priceless paintings, quietly admiring them.
Dense exhibition stands were arranged in the hall, and different treasures were placed on each stand, skeletons, jewelry, antiques... A dazzling array.
"Lord Brown."
A Mafia subordinate walked into the hall door, walked behind the man, and bowed respectfully: "The Fiers Family has entrusted Badim to send you some gifts, including some assets and cash, as well as more than a dozen rare collectibles."
"Fiers... That family that has been expanding rapidly recently... Making a lot of noise..."
The blond man withdrew his gaze from the painting, and turned around.
"Yes!"
The subordinate responded.
"The boss of the Fiers Family, is a newbie?"
"Yes, he's only been in office for less than two months... The original family head Fiers Mabo and his son Fiers Garu were both killed by the Kenny Family. The two organizations have had a long-standing feud. The new boss took over the family and fought with the Kenny Family a few days later and won, annexing the Kenny Family's industry. A month ago, the Fiers Family also killed McDormi, occupying a certain share in the transportation industry... Now, the scale of the Fiers Family is already comparable to some large forces."
Brown didn't react in any way after listening. Although the Fiers Family had risen rapidly recently, there were many mid-level forces like this in the area under his jurisdiction. The only ones he could really remember were the top groups.
Brown was one of the Ten Dons who controlled the Mafia in ten regions of the six continents!
There were too many people who wanted to curry favor with him. The other meaning of the Fiers Family sending gifts was nothing more than to do a favor, hoping to get the favor of the Ten Dons.
"To have Badim make this trip, it seems... the things he sent are of some value."
Brown said, and walked leisurely between the exhibition stands.
The subordinate followed closely, "The Fiers Family made its fortune through casinos, and doesn't have many people under its command, but it has a lot of assets."
The subordinate saw that Brown didn't have much of an impression of the Fiers Family, and immediately began to explain and supplement.
Brown, as one of the Ten Dons, had tremendous power in the underworld, and ordinary families wanted to please him... But they had the will but not the means. He couldn't see the small trinkets. The gifts that the Fiers Family sent him this time must be a huge amount, so large that even the Ten Dons would be tempted. The subordinates and confidants knew Brown's character and hobbies very well, otherwise he wouldn't have accepted them.
Although he took the things, it was impossible for the Fiers Family to meet the Ten Dons.
They weren't qualified.
Only a few Mafia bosses could be received by him, and Badim was one of them.
The Fiers Family was considered to have good intentions.
Brown didn't care too much about the changes in the Mafia under his command... As one of the Ten Dons, he had the arrogance that matched his status and power. As long as it didn't endanger his interests, he didn't care how those people made trouble... The Mafia was originally a survival of the fittest environment, with fighting and killing every day. He couldn't manage every one of them, he just needed to control the overall situation.
It was also good to have some new blood emerge... It was inevitable that things would be boring if they always stayed the same.
The most important thing was that this new force was very good at doing things...
"How's the preparation for the party going?"
Brown didn't pay too much attention to the Fiers Family's affairs, and mentioned it after listening to his subordinate for a while.
"It's almost finished, and all the forces have been notified, it will be held on schedule."
"Very good."
Brown nodded, and walked out of the hall door.
In the second before he walked out of the door, a black shadow burst out from nowhere, strangely flashed behind Brown, wearing a tight suit similar to a ninja costume, covering his face, with two scabbards hanging from his waist, protecting this Ten Don as he walked further and further away.
The subordinate standing in the hall bowed to his back, until the former completely left his sight, before raising his head.
...
A few days later, as the boss of the Fiers Family, Oboro brought the butler David, and participated in the charity party held in the name of the Ten Dons.
This party, on the surface, was said to be a charity donation to help the poor, and was very noble.
In reality, it was a false form and formality for all the Mafia to pay protection fees to the Ten Dons.
Even... The Ten Dons themselves wouldn't show up.
Letting these people flock to it and have fun on their own.
Some so-called treasures would be auctioned on the spot, but they weren't worth much... The Mafia bosses would scramble to bid, taking out an astronomical figure to buy a piece of useless garbage. The reason for doing this was, first, to curry favor with the Ten Dons, and give them money for nothing, and second, it was an opportunity to show their faces in front of all the Mafia, to show off their wealth and reputation, and to promote the family's brand.
It was essentially the same as the auction held in Yorknew City in later generations, except that the scale wasn't as large.
After getting out of the car and arriving at the hotel venue, Oboro realized that he had underestimated the appeal of the Ten Dons... Even if it was just one of the Ten Dons, the Mafia groups in a region, the luxury cars that came were blocking an entire street.
The Mafia members were all very short-tempered, and there were even many Mafia members who openly cursed and fought because of car friction and lane grabbing... Although each of them was dressed decently today, their behavior still couldn't hide their rude and vulgar nature.
There was also an interesting phenomenon... Oboro found that there was also a clear hierarchy within the Mafia. In the case of such congested vehicles, the cars of small families would voluntarily give way to the large families... Allowing the luxury cars of the large families to drive smoothly to the hotel gate all the way, and enter first.
The big shots with faces would also receive a warm reception from the service staff... As for the family heads of small families, they were completely ignored.
The contrast was stark.
The Fiers Family was originally a mid-level force, but now, in just over two months, it had expanded wildly, and had the momentum to become a large family. Therefore, Oboro and David were also among the first group of people to enter, and the process was very smooth.
"Come! Let me introduce you, this is the boss of the Fiers Family, Oboro! A rising star in our region... I'm sure you've all heard of his name recently, so I won't say much more." Seeing Oboro and David, the boss of the Badim Family, a short, pot-bellied old man raised his glass and walked over, introducing them to a few friends around him.
These few people were standing in the central area of the venue, forming a small circle by themselves, and the people around them didn't dare to approach. The gazes that came over also contained awe and nervousness...
Because they were the most powerful family bosses in the region.
They were all big shots who could shake the underworld with a stomp of their feet.
Oboro was pulled into this small group, which naturally attracted the attention of others...
You had to know that being able to curry favor with these big shots... was an opportunity that many family heads dreamed of.
Oboro glanced at Badim. The reason why this guy was so enthusiastic about him was because he had sent gifts to the Ten Dons before, and the other party had made a big profit from the Fiers Family because of this!
"I heard... You're a distant relative of Fiers Mabo's younger generation?"
One of the big shots looked Oboro up and down, and couldn't see anything outstanding about him. However, the Fiers Family's actions had been too big recently... They had successively killed the Kenny and Mike forces, making people have to look at them with new eyes, and pay attention to them.
"Hmm."
Oboro nodded lightly.
He didn't look at the former directly, but his eyes were still scanning the door, and the underworld bosses who were constantly walking in.
This attitude made the big shot who asked the question's expression sink.
In the underworld society, the order of strength and weakness was clear. How long had a junior like Oboro debuted? When he saw him, even if he didn't respect him, he should at least remain humble... After all, offending him wouldn't do the Fiers Family any good.
Not to mention that the Fiers Family hadn't completely become one of the top organizations in the region, even if they really gained a foothold and were on par with them, this arrogant attitude was too rude!
"Kid!"
A cadre behind the big shot, clenched his fist, and shouted angrily at Oboro.
Oboro was unmoved, and didn't even say hello, he directly led David away...
This behavior immediately stunned everyone, including Badim.
"Heh... These young people nowadays..."
"They've only been in the limelight for a few days, and they don't know which way is up."
"Let him be arrogant for a while, we'll talk after the party is over."
The big shots exchanged glances, only Badim remained silent.
This was the Ten Dons' place, and no one dared to mess around.
On the other side, Oboro walked to a corner, and quietly drank the red wine in his hand.
He had no interest in communicating with these Mafia big shots... For no other reason than he simply felt that they were uninteresting, and talking to them was a waste of time, it was better to be alone for a while. Even if he did start chatting, Oboro could imagine the topics these people would talk about.
The reason why he showed up at the party... was for the Ten Don Brown. Not seeing him didn't prevent him from letting the other party further deepen his impression of the Fiers Family.
"If I killed everyone who came today... Wouldn't that mean, the entire Mafia in this region..." Oboro took a sip of wine, and observed everyone in the venue through the glass, and a thought appeared in his mind.
If he really did that... then the one he had to deal with wouldn't be just one, but the complete Ten Dons.
Better not...
