"We’ll definitely be in hot water once we get to Black Blood Gang, we need to make a decision."
Her reasoning was sound.
A green light flashed in Sun Chuan’s eyes, "Then what can we do? The Black Blood Gang, even if not as strong as Yakutza, is not sothing we can contend with."
ii said seriously, "If we arrive at their territory, we’ll just be lambs to the slaughter... But what about on the way there?"
"Once we are sold off and leave here, we fall out of Yakutza’s hands, and when Black Blood Gang buys us, these new Radiation, they surely won’t send too many experts to escort us."
"So, during this process, that’s our best chance to escape!"
Liu Xu frowned, "You an, we go with Black Blood Gang and then violently escape en route? But where would we escape to?"
ii analyzed, "Just hide; from what I know, the whole Yamaguchi Village is under Yakutza’s thumb, other factions are just small fry."
"As long as we can kill the ones escorting us, afterwards Black Blood Gang won’t be able to turn the city upside down trying to find us, they don’t have that kind of clout."
"Even if we can’t kill them, as long as we can escape and hide in the Silver Tower, simply joining a team to participate in a low-level ga to survive, then co out with a different appearance, who would recognize us?"
"Maybe by this we can beco independents. After all, we are no longer slaves of Yakutza, perhaps we can freely leave Yamaguchi Village."
Everyone listened and felt there was so viability to the plan.
But Liu Xu still worried, "Can the five of us, newly beco Radiation, defeat the strong ones from Black Blood Gang? What if they bring a lot of people this ti?"
ii replied, "They probably won’t bring many, at most the sa number of people as us. As for the strong ones, I guess there will only be one Sub-Wolf leading, soone on the level of Sasaki."
"Sun Chuan, Li Shande, how much have you reached?"
Sun Chuan said, "Both Li Shande and I are at six tis, but this guy is a bit stronger because he’s heavier."
Li Shande sneered, "Even if we were the sa weight, you still couldn’t beat , I know Wing Chun! People like you, I can take on ten."
Sun Chuan scoffed, "When you’re actually fighting, have you ever used Wing Chun?"
ii said, "Stop bickering, both of you are at six tis, Su Lei is at eight tis, Liu Xu and I are at five tis."
"Five people working with one will, we should be able to defeat a Sub-Wolf..."
Liu Xu said, "What if we can’t win... Logically speaking, even putting all of us together..."
ii fell silent; not winning was the norm. A difference in strength by two tis was like the difference between heaven and earth; logically, they might not even be able to break through the enemy’s defense.
Su Lei stood up abruptly, "We fight even if we can’t win!"
"Soone on the level of Sasaki? I can take on one by myself! When the ti cos, you guys go, I’ll cover the rear."
Everyone knew he harbored a deep hatred for Sasaki, training bitterly every day in the hope of catching up and taking vengeance.
So upon hearing this, they were all stirred up.
"Right, we fight even if we can’t win, we have no other choice," ii declared solemnly.
Su Lei unloaded his burden and clutched his fists tightly, his muscles tensing, "I greatly regret not taking action back then. Dongfang Yi was talking to about being rational, and how it was impossible for us collectively to be a match for the enemy."
"But is the outco really that certain? Gao Xin faced Oyama Mas, who had three tis his strength, and won."
"As a ’Glass Man’, he slaughtered seventeen Radiation and even almost killed Sasaki. Had he not been saved by Rousi in ti, he would have been dead for sure."
"If... if we had just sward in and fought desperately in the Radiation Room back then, Gao Xin might not have died."
Everyone was silent, their eyes dimd.
After Lin Fu told them about Gao Xin’s death, their ntal states exploded.
They all thought, if they had fought desperately together back then, might Gao Xin have had a chance to survive?
Alas, there are no ifs, and things can’t be redone.
Now facing a dire situation again, all five of them agreed, no matter what, to fight like mad to carve a path to life.
...
At the entrance of the Black Hand Group camp, Salah personally ca to fetch the high-ranking Gao Xin.
"Lord Salah, long ti no see, why co in person to buy a few newbies?"
On behalf of the hitn, it was Tanabu who personally received them, flanked by Sasaki.
Salah shrugged his shoulders, "Just out for a stroll, the dump is short on Scavengers, thought I’d buy so trash to make do."
Tanabu nodded, then looked at Gao Xin beside him, "And who is this?"
He wouldn’t have paid attention to Gao Xin if it weren’t for the teor Crossbow, which, despite being a bit useless, was still a B level weapon and quite famous; thus, he realized Gao Xin was no ordinary lackey.
"Oh, this is my buddy, Tai Sui," Salah said offhandedly.
Gao Xin extended his hand with a smile, "Hello, Tanabu."
Tanabu completely failed to recognize Gao Xin; he had little impression of him in the first place, and Gao Xin had altered his appearance significantly with color-changing cells on his face.
"Lord Tai Sui, this is our first eting, please take care of ," Tanabu squeezed out a smile and bowed slightly.
Although the Yakuzas had far greater power than the Black Blood Gang, Salah was a True Tiger, the second-in-command of the Yamaguchi Village branch of the Black Blood Gang, and not soone a minor executive like Tanabu could compare with.
On this island, it ultimately was strength that ruled.
The Yakuza had a strict hierarchy, and Tanabu was especially respectful of the strong, so naturally he couldn’t be impolite when even Salah called him brother.
Gao Xin smiled, reaching out with interest to the person next to him, "You’re Sasaki, right?"
Sasaki stood behind Tanabu like a flunky; he may have been Tanabu’s confidant, but his status was just that of a common Black Hand, without any special title.
While his own boss was chatting with a Tiger Level, he was left with nothing but to listen.
Surprised at being offered a handshake by Gao Xin, Sasaki’s face lit up with delight.
He bowed deeply at ninety degrees, grasping with both hands, "Hi! The junior here is indeed Sasaki, I didn’t expect Lord Tai Sui would know my na."
Gao Xin smiled and said, "Oh... is that so? I heard that the Yakuzas have a legendary Glassman who almost beat a guy called Sasaki to death... that’s you, right?"
"..." Sasaki’s smile stiffened.
"I I I... I was just careless for a mont! If we fought again, I’m sure I could smash him with one slap!"
He was near tears. Damn it, how did this get to the Black Blood Gang?
Sasaki knew this would be pinned to the pillar of sha, he just hadn’t expected it to spread so fast, almost all over Yamaguchi Village.
He indeed almost died that day, fortunately, he encountered Rousi on the way back and narrowly survived.
And the first to spread the story was, of course, Rousi, who he obviously didn’t have the clout to silence.
Nowadays, the foreigners in the comrcial district sotis discussed the legendary Glassman over als as a tidbit of gossip... making him afraid to even go play in the comrcial district.
He didn’t expect people from the Black Blood Gang were also talking about it, and since the Black Blood Gang was an international organization, wouldn’t the story soon spread abroad?
Gao Xin laughed, "Is that so? Why not spare so ti to fight him again?"
Sasaki responded with a laugh, "I wish I could have another round with him too, I really hate that he’s gone."
Tanabu glared, "Sasaki! You’re being rude, how can you use foul language in front of Lord Salah?"
Salah just shrugged his shoulders.
Gao Xin said, "No worries, no worries, who on this island doesn’t say a few curse words? Right, Brother Bastard?"
Sasaki imdiately agreed, then paused, surprised. The nickna "Brother Bastard" had been circulating for a while but was typically only ntioned among a few friends within the Black Hand Group. Had it also spread to the Black Blood Gang’s side?
He found it strange but didn’t dwell on it too much.
Just then, Su Lei and others arrived. Seeing Sasaki, they were montarily taken aback.
ii and the others clenched their fists, lowered their heads, but Su Lei didn’t hide his hatred, staring straight at the other.
Everyone thought, ’This is bad, Su Lei isn’t going to start a fight with Sasaki here, is he?’
