Chapter 356 - 274: Kingship and Rule
The man with the hooked nose squinted his eyes and showed a gesture of "3" with his hand, "To reconcile, three hundred thousand..."
Before he finished speaking, Little Jack’s slap landed on his face.
Bam!!!
A loud noise exploded.
The bodies collided violently, smoke and dust stirred up, and the man with the hooked nose was directly sent flying by the slap, strong enough to bend a steel pipe, crashing to the ground, sprawling among the crowd.
"Shut your filthy mouth."
"Fuck..." The right side of the hooked-nose man’s face visibly swelled, his eyes bloodshot and extremely red, looking exceptionally furious.
The surrounding members of the Acks Gang, seeing the opponent strike first, showed fierce expressions and all raised their guns towards Little Jack, the sounds of magazines and gun parts clinking together emitting a crisp "click".
However, Little Jack stood over two meters tall and weighed three to four hundred pounds, with a face full of rugged features and a beard, frowning brows covering his eyelids, drooping eyes, and a violent and terrifying gaze. His muscular arms, covered in jet-black tattoos, looked like massive stone columns, and standing in the narrow underground casino, he was like a giant wall, giving off immense pressure, so everyone was angry but dared not speak up.
Members of the Acks Gang slowly retreated while aiming their guns at Little Jack, trying to keep their distance from him.
Little Jack’s expression showed no fear whatsoever, and he continued to stand with arms crossed, coldly scanning his surroundings. This flexed arms posture naturally contracted the biceps, stretched the long head of the triceps, and caused some contraction in the deltoids too, making the arm circumference look two to three centimeters thicker than usual, making his upper body appear even more massive, like a male lion crouched down, ready to attack at any moment.
He stood right in the middle, between over thirty members of the Sloos Gang and over twenty members of the Acks Gang, intimidating both sides with his sheer presence, and not a single person dared to act impulsively.
The man with the hooked nose took several deep breaths and, supported by others, struggled to get up from the ground, quickly wiping the blood off beneath his nose with the back of his hand. Bloodstains still remained on his cheeks from the previous swipe.
"What do you people want?! Do you know the consequences of daring to anger us, the Acks Gang?"
"Tell your boss to come out." Little Jack said coldly.
After being slapped by Little Jack, the man with the hooked nose was left with a psychological shadow, and now he couldn’t help but tremble at the sight of Little Jack’s face. He suppressed his inner fear and said, "You mean our leader? He’s not in the casino right now. I can make decisions about anything!"
"You?" Little Jack sneered, grabbing him by the collar, "What are you?"
"All right, Little Jack, don’t be too hard on him."
At this moment, Wang Ye, wearing an evil ghost mask, stepped forward.
Little Jack, who was about to punch while gripping the other’s collar,
immediately retracted his hands and bowed respectfully to Wang Ye.
The still-shaken man with the hooked nose watched Little Jack pay such homage to Wang Ye,
with eyes full of unstoppable surprise. This brawny man feared such a person,
who could this person possibly be?
Being a senior member of the Acks Gang and well-knowing the circumstances of the nearby neighborhoods, including the small-scale Sloos Gang, he had investigated the Sloos Gang’s situation before. According to him, the Sloos Gang had been established not long ago, and currently, the organization had only a leader, two core members, and some ordinary members. The only one with some combat power was this hefty Little Jack, but being alone made it hard to get anywhere. The other two were almost cowards, with no combat or decision-making abilities.
But the masked man in front of him was clearly not the rumored leader of the Sloos Gang.
Because... the masked man in front of him had a body too perfect. With a high and robust yet unencumbered streamlined body, wearing a tight black suit, outlining a figure more aesthetically pleasing than the golden ratio, like a meticulously crafted work of art from Ancient Greece. Once seen, one would never forget.
So, he could guarantee that he had never seen this man.
Just as the man with the hooked nose was nervously overthinking,
he suddenly saw the pitch-black eyes under the demon mask.
He couldn’t help but shiver.
What kind of eyes were those?
Pitch-black, cold, deep, mysterious...
Devoid of any emotional color, like a bottomless abyss, exuding a chilling sensation like an ice cellar, making one instinctively want to stay away from the owner of those eyes.
"Who... who exactly are you..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Ye interrupted him and said in a deep voice:
"You have five minutes to call your boss back, I’ll be waiting right here."
"Fi... Five minutes?" The man with the hooked nose’s eyes widened, knowing that their boss was currently at home several blocks away, sleeping with a woman! Five minutes, even driving at a hundred miles per hour, he wouldn’t make it!
"What, you have objections?" Little Jack furrowed his brow slightly.
"No... no! I’ll call right away!" The man with the hooked nose quickly took out his phone and dialed the boss’s number, but soon it was redirected to voicemail. Apparently, the call wasn’t picked up. He quickly hung up and continued to bombard the boss with calls.
Wang Ye, on the other hand, walked through the crowd of Acks Gang and sat on the innermost chair in the casino.
