A few months earlier
Water was flooded in between narrow alleys. The young man in the dragon-patterned suit walks in there smoking cigarettes in his mouth. He was now only accompanied by a quiet and wistful feeling accompanied by the raindrops surrounding him.
The black gloves that he wore turned red. He was already uncomfortable wearing dirty gloves because of the blood of those pricks who got in his way.
"Spike! Don't expect you to pass us just like that!..." Said one of the battered men sprawled on the ground.
That guy named Spike didn't look at those men. He just kicked the prick's stomach so hard he couldn't lose consciousness.
“Huh…Can't I start my work with a clean sheet without one of my clothes getting dirty?" Spike asked himself.
Now he's standing in front of a remote karaoke place between the gangs. In front of him is a big neon sign that writes "first sin"
Spike tried to get through one of the glass doors. But before that, he looked back.
He saw dozens or even hundreds of people lying on the ground. Some pass out, some endure the pain, and the rest of them stare at Spike so hard they can't do anything to stop it.
They all failed to stop Spike.
"This is what their men are capable of? How can a gang like this survive being in rank number four?" Mumbled spike in confusement.
The bell rings, the sign of someone coming through the front door. But instead of a warm welcome received by Spike, a log came against him unexpectedly.
"Take that, you son of a bitch!" Yelled the bald man on Spike's right side.
Luckily, Spike's been doing this job for years. Working as a bouncer in the low-hats gang was also practicing his fighting skills, Instinct and awareness of what's going on around him made him capable of saving himself.
The swinging log was held in place by only one of Spike's hands. The bald man got stunned, believing that he was swinging so hard that nobody could even stop it.
A split second, spike glared at the bald man.
"Can you be more creative with me? I've had enough of these surprising techniques."
Throwing away the log, Spike immediately hit the bald man with his own weapon. He knocked away until he broke the glass behind him.
Spike realized that he didn't want to make a lot of noise by making him crash into the glass, but nature was on his side. The raindrops there are able to camouflage the noise.
While still unharmed, Spike casually walks forward.
Although he didn't see it firsthand, he could tell that in this room there were scantily clad scared girls who were hiding in fear of losing their lives.
The sound of weeping and the choking of young girls who tried to restrain themself could still be heard by Spike. And Spike, he chose to ignore them. As long as they don't interfere with their work here.
"Stay there! Or I'll shoot you!"
Suddenly, one of the girls was wearing a short yellow dress consistent with her blonde hair holding a gun to the spike. Even so, she was terrified of the way the eyeliner faded under her eyelids.
"All right, calm down, I'm not moving." Answer spike.
He's walking slowly trying to get close to her right now.
"I told you, shut up!" Yelled the girl more loudly than ever.
"Okay, sorry. But I have to make sure of one thing for you. Did you get a good use of that gun? You can kill yourself with it."
"Enough, stay there. Or I'll shoot you with this gun!"
For a girl, she's quite brave. Spike understood that she was doing it to defend herself. But she noticed something strange. How could a girl get access to a firearm?
Spike raised his hand, he could have avoided shooting that girl with the gun shaking. But the more unprofessional a person is, the harder their shot is to predict. He didn't want to waste his luck just for that.
"Okay. I've been quiet for now. Then what do you want from me?"
The girl fell silent with a still whimpering in fear. She's probably never pointed a gun at anyone before.
Suddenly from behind, someone with a big body hugging the spikes made him unable to move.
"Gotcha!" He whispered in Spike's ear.
If he was in this condition, Spike could have been the victim of the girl's random shooting today. He's trying to release the grip of the man behind him now.
"It's useless. You're too arrogant to think you can take us out on your own! You underestimate us, The Lizards!"
Spike's still having trouble trying to get out of that grip. He looked around, looking for a way to escape the man.
"Blondie, hurry up and shoot this guy! "Asked the man in the direction of the girl holding the gun.
Still frightened, the girl pulled the trigger. Screaming and closing your eyes
"Coward, how dare you tell a girl to cooperate with your devious act!"
In a fraction of a second later, Spike tried to avoid a shot from the girl by stepping on the feet of the man behind her quickly and turning himself. Automatic, the bullet that should have lodged in his body was hit on the guy right now.
Spike just pulled the gun on the girl. While the man who had been shot was lying on the floor holding his bleeding spleen.
"Just get out of here. I spared you all!." Spike said something to the girl. afterwards, all the girls in the room ran away screaming in fear.
"Who told you to release my assets! I paid good money for all of them!" He shouted.
Spike just realized that the person who had her captive back there was Tammy, the boss of The Lizards, the person Spike had to kill in his line of duty.
Without further ado, the man with the full arm of the muscle pointed his gun at Tammy.
"Tammy, The Lizards. Your presence in the district has disturbed us, the low-hats. We already gave you some warning, but you never paid attention. We have been greatly diminished by your presence. Therefore, I will finish you off right here and right now on your heels."
"Fucking Low-hats! You've taken everything! Do you think the path you are all gonna take is the right one? You're walking on mud slide! Soon your reign will be overthrown!”
The gun was fired, right through Tammy's head. Making a hole in his brain
Spike immediately tossed the gun, and picked up the phone in his pants pocket.
"Cole, I've done my job. So, how many more heads do I have to cut to get me promoted?"
Spike just woke up. There was an impenetrable iron wall Around him again . He looked at his arm again, the iron arm attached again that he had previously used to fight horrible monsters in the arena of death.Slowly, Spike was able to bring back memories of himself. Spike knew that in the past he was a ruthless, heartless gangster who had no mercy on his enemies. Spike feels that his being here is payment for what he did in the past. A KarmaWith the body feeling so weak, Spike tried to run in front of the cell gate he was in, screaming trying to get out of the place."Hey! Whoever's in there! Quickly get me out of this place!"Spike hit the gate with his iron fist, repeatedly with enormous force. It's just the weird thing is his iron arm didn't work the way he did against the gorlocks. The iron hand is so weak and has no power at all."Stupid hand! You can fight those monsters, but you can't break this rust! Hurry up and do your job properly!" Spike yelled loudly at his own arm.No o
In front of Spike, it turned out to be just a narrow, dark passage. There was no guard standing in front or even a CCTV camera to monitor it. Spike's expectations were too high, he thought the prison was too tight. But knowing this, Spike felt like he could slip away easily.To the left of Spike's cell is an empty room. Spike can even open the room easily. And of course, there was no one in the room."Hey… What were you doing in that room?"Spike's in shock, someone caught him breaking into that room. The spikes ran like hell. He feared it was a guards and was caught by him. Spike hasn't even had time to see who's behind him.The passageway it runs turns out to be quite long, with the curve around it more and more. It's as if this passage is just an incredibly large circular route. But then there was an open wall, and the spikes looked down there."Wait. Isn't that where I fought the Gorlocks before?" Spike just realized that this hallway is where the crowd cheered him on as he fough
"Yes, Hudson, the man with glasses also said that the arena where I had fought before was my execution. And yet I still wondered why I was alive. I've felt a sharp object enter my heart."When Spike tried to explain the matter, the gate in front of them was opened. And there, they're not alone.There's a lot of people in orange jumpsuit that look like they've both been there and they're staring at Spike like crazy. It's as if seeing Spike like a ghost.Spike doesn't know any of them even though he believes they're top-notch criminals. Their diverse body shapes and distances from normal human words have made him more convinced that there is something wrong with this place."Keep on walking, you can't deal with them now…" Whispered silver quietly.They went to a large canteen yard with neatly lined tables and chairs.At each end of the table are numerous guard robots with weapons in their hands. Finally, Spike feels something familiar in this place. This is the same as the typical priso
Silver and spike are in the atrium. That place is a section that looks different from anywhere else in the prison. There are so many ornaments and beautifully crafted things here like a place to relax.They were at the end of the room, a balcony with a boundary of railing and clear glass. They can both see the arena Spike was fighting before from there."What are we doing here? If you think this place is any safer, take a look! There are still many machine-brain guards here!""No, I didn't bring you here because I took you away from the guards, I'm trying to keep the scum and those inmate out of your sight." Point silver at the people in the orange jumpsuits."You may have learned your lesson in the underworld. If you can't trust anyone, maybe even yourself. And that, applies in this place of distinction"Spike muttered, answering Silver. "What did I do wrong? I'm still holding on to it. The scum took my food without permission. And shouldn't I be hitting them?" Silver breathed his b
Silvers felt that Spike would really be lured by Borg's offer, so he rushed over to take the man's hand and asked him out of the place right now. "You shouldn't agree with them, Spike….""Yes… You don't have to accept it. But I need to know how much of a coward you really are."Spike turned around to hold Borg's neck with great threat. Borg followers are certainly on the alert, they don't want to make any noise at all, much less under the guards' surveillance now. No one knows what might happen when Spike gets really mad."Silent… If you're going to say those words again… cowards… Then I'll make your head stick to the ground."Borg didn't feel threatened at all, he smiled in amazement at Spike's reaction to such bravery. He stretches his arms out to get his men to behave themselves right now."Hahahaha… Even when we first met. You’re amused me. Then why don't we start the duel today?""Spike! Stop that! You're still weak!" Silver said, trying to break."I will not stand idly by as my
Silver and spike are rushing to the window to see what's going on right now. two men face each other, about to fight right now. In the meantime, the prisoners also watched in joyful cheering. Spike understands now why they had such a reaction. It was only there in the arena that they had so much fun. Entertainment that doesn't make it has them lose their life. "Silver, do you know them?" "Of course, I knew him. Their battles are already inevitable. They're in the same gang. The Chain. Otto is in 21st place, 32 is named Hunn” "Hey! I look forward to their fight!" Suddenly someone is slipping past Spike right now. like all the others, he was excited about the fight that was going on there. "Whoever wins this fight will make The Chain theirs! The power of a gang that size is sure to be a worthy struggle. Even if I can afford to fight them both and take it!" Said the man again. "Uh, sorry. Who are you? "Spike asked someone who felt that he was talking too much. "Oh yes. I'm Vahn,
"Ahahahaha aha I already suspect Hunn will win this duel. But I didn't think it would end so soon." Says Vahn who had seen the match as he had predicted."Huh? What did you mean just now? How could you predict that? I mean, can you see what's going on in there? I didn't see anything!" Spike asked Vahn"Which is why I'm asking you to refuse to fight Borg before. They both are well below Borg rank. If you cannot even grasp the meaning of this fight, then it is impossible for you to win it." Silver's giving Spike advice back.Some of the prisoners have started trying to get back to their respective activities now. They've seen enough bloodshed on one side of the issue."I'm still confused, what are they fighting for? Why take the position of a gang in a prison like this?" Spike asked the two men next to him."Being the leader of a gang means you have more power than a common prisoner. Any Credit point your people have can go to their chief. It’s just a fool for someone who refuses to bec
one day has passed.After seeing the fight in the arena yesterday, Spike thoughtfully about how he could survive in this place with only his Iron Fist. All day he thought about all the tactics for fighting.The thing was, Spike had yet to learn who the real Vahn was. He didn't know what strength that person had. He couldn't predict and prepare for his fight with that person later.Previously, Spike had asked Silver. And just as it seems, Silver is just as clueless as Spike.Something was off about Vahn. He had never seen the man before in this prison. He came as if he had come especially today to greet him in the battle arena.Hmm... Why am I thinking too hard? I can always win whatever battle I face with ease...Spike sat silently in his own cell. Time has yet to show for a break. In his indecision, he was really bored in his solitude.***A few hours later, Spike who accidentally fell asleep wakes up hearing sirens in his own cell.The flickering and illuminating light in his room d
