Charlie nodded and said, “Okay. Then, let your eldest son take over your position from tomorrow. I will let Porter of Ten Thousand Armies fly over to make a handover with him and let Porter get to know him. If he doesn't obey in the future, we will know who to point the gun at.”When Antonio heard about Ten Thousand Armies and Porter, he was even more shocked.The name ‘Ten Thousand Armies’ was known to almost everyone in the mercenary field and gang field.Antonio naturally knew about this legendary organization as well as Porter's legendary experience. However, he never expected that Charlie could call Porter to come to New York at any time, giving people the feeling that Porter seemed to be one of Charlie’s subordinates.Aman couldn't help but start to re-analyze the relationship between Charlie and Ten Thousand Armies.In the past, he thought that Ten Thousand Armies had taken half of the Wade family's assets, so it would protect the Wade family, but now, it seemed that Charli
At this moment, Antonio and Aman no longer dared to defy Charlie in any way. So, they immediately followed Charlie's request and dispersed their subordinates and families. Less than ten minutes later, all of them had evacuated from Zano Manor.Charlie released his Reiki to probe, and upon seeing that the entire manor was indeed empty, he instructed Angus, “Angus, go park the car at the entrance.”“Okay, Mr. Wade!” Angus nodded and quickly left the wine cellar.Charlie then looked at Antonio and Aman and said calmly, “Both of you, get up and go to the entrance.”Antonio looked at his crippled leg and choked up as he said, “Mr. Wade, I… I can't walk…”“That’s right, Mr. Wade…” Aman also said despondently, “I can't walk either. My right leg is in excruciating pain. I can't even stand…”Charlie said coldly, “One of you has a broken right leg, the other, a broken left leg. You can support each other as brothers since you can't be father-in-law and son-in-law anymore.”Jilian couldn't
However, they were well aware that if they didn't return within just an hour or two, their boss wouldn't suspect a thing until at least early the next morning. As they hoped for a miracle, the door was suddenly pushed open.The five men looked expectantly toward the door, only to see the last person they wanted to encounter, Charlie, stepping into the room. What shocked them even more was the two individuals hobbling in behind him, each supporting the other and hopping on one leg.However, they soon realized that these ‘peculiar individuals’ were not strange for the sake of being strange, but because both had their other legs dripping with blood from gunshot wounds. At this moment, Will, the leader among the men and the most observant, suddenly recognized one of the men with a broken leg and exclaimed in horror, “Mr. Zano?!”Upon hearing this, the other four men widened their eyes in shock and instinctively looked toward where Will was staring. As soon as they did, all four men we
Antonio was the underground emperor of all of New York, so when he summoned those gang leaders, every one of them responded eagerly and promptly.Moreover, Charlie's instructions to Antonio were quite misleading. Antonio acted according to Charlie's instructions and told the gang leaders that he had a very important business deal to discuss with them in person. He also instructed them to bring their most trusted confidant to the roast goose shop in Oskiatown for a confidential meeting.Furthermore, Charlie instructed Antonio to inform these leaders that this business was exceptionally important. That was why it was chosen to be discussed in Oskiatown, to avoid drawing unwanted attention. Antonio specifically warned them not to tell anyone else about this matter except their confidants, or they would be permanently expelled from the Zano family's territory.These gang leaders all relied on Antonio for their livelihoods. They could maintain their territories in New York not only throu
He came from humble beginnings and didn't understand much about political maneuvering. His philosophy was simple, that was, as long as his brothers worked hard alongside him, he would ensure they were well taken care of. If there was food on his plate, there would be soup for his brothers.However, Maikey was much smarter compared to him. When Maikey graduated from high school, he was the only talented student from his African-American neighborhood to be accepted into a reputable public university that year.In that neighborhood, crime and divorce rates were sky-high. Many young people learned to shoot and do drugs before they even grew facial hair. If a day passed without a gunfight in the area, everyone would have trouble sleeping due to the unfamiliarity.In such an environment, Maikey's acceptance into university was a testament to his exceptional intellect. However, once he entered university, the stark contrast between his impoverished background and the lavish lifestyles of w
Charlie wanted to use this trick to turn all the gangs in New York into his puppets in one night.After returning, these surviving second-in-commands who were completely shocked would never dare to disobey Charlie again, considering that Charlie was backed by the powerful Ten Thousand Armies. They would definitely obey Charlie's orders wholeheartedly.The Zano family's decades of hard work would also be cut off by Charlie after tonight.Antonio, who had already accepted his fate, could only lament to Danial at this time. “Danial, not only us but also the leaders of other gangs. When they arrive one after another, we will go to Syria together and set off early tomorrow morning.”Danial was even more surprised and asked him, “Boss, we are a gang, not mercenaries. What can we do in Syria? We can't go to Syria to grab territory, right? The people over there are much fiercer compared to us. We are still using 9mm pistols to grab territories, but they should be running around with RPGs t
Antonio made full use of his identity as the underground emperor of New York. Every gang leader he notified arrived eagerly and excitedly.However, no one could have expected that waiting for them in Oskiatown was a scene where they were all tightly bound with stinky rags stuffed in their mouths. They were huddled together in a corner of the second floor of a roast goose restaurant alongside other top members from various gang units.As more people arrived, Antonio grew increasingly anxious.During a brief lull between the last batch being taken upstairs and the next one arriving, he couldn't help but ask Charlie miserably, “Mr. Wade… I've tricked all these gang bosses into going to Syria. I’m betraying all of them. When we get to Syria, if they join forces to come after me, I won't end up dead there, right?”Charlie smiled and asked him, “So, what do you think should be done?”Antonio swallowed nervously and cautiously said, “Since I'm cooperating like this, why don’t you leave m
Charlie pointed to Antonio beside him and said, “This is the boss of the New York Mafia. Get acquainted with each other. There are quite a few prominent figures from New York gangs upstairs. You should greet them one by one later. These people have a rebellious nature. When I deal with them alone, they won't be convinced. It requires someone like you, famous, well-connected, and with a team behind you, to truly intimidate them. After daybreak, you will take him and his men by boat out of the United States and then arrange to go to Syria, handing them directly over to Hamed.”Porter nodded immediately and said, “Okay, Mr. Wade. Is there anything else you want to instruct me or convey to Commander Hamed?”Charlie glanced at Antonio and continued, “This is Antonio, a true Sicilian man despite having a lame leg. Tell Hamed that medical conditions in Syria are limited, so he doesn't need to bother treating him. Just find a carpenter to make him a wooden leg. They're in the middle of const
