Chapter 109 [Bonus Chapter with Gift] The Mafia's Guest
"That's enough, Tru, put them down."
Although Valon is a gang leader, he will beat and scold his subordinates when his missions fail.
However, in terms of benefits and compensation, Valon is considered a top-notch boss.
He was especially kind to the three idiots in the gang.
Therefore, after hearing the three idiots' cries of pain, Valon, despite still being furious, couldn't bear to let these three loyal followers of his suffer any harm at the hands of Trulli, and promptly spoke up to stop Trulli's actions.
"I'm only giving you a warning this time because of your loyalty... But if you still can't bring me the talisman next time, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After Tru obeyed his orders and threw the three idiots back to the ground.
Valon turned around and first subtly sized up the three gangsters in front of him with his eyes.
Once Valon confirmed that the three guys, aside from complaining incessantly, hadn't suffered any real harm in Tru's arms, who had acted with restraint, he quietly felt relieved.
But outwardly, he still kept a stern face and warned the three gangsters.
"Understood, boss. We'll definitely try our best and bring the talisman back to you!"
At this point, a wave of throbbing pain washed over them, but the fact that they were still relatively free to move made the three gangsters realize that both the boss and Tru were showing them mercy.
Just thinking about how much money Valon spent to bail the three of them out of the police station...
Filled with gratitude, Afen dared not utter a single complaint. He quickly followed up on what Valon had said and earnestly made his promise.
"This... Boss, this might be a bit difficult..."
But Rasu, that simpleton, has absolutely no idea what social etiquette is.
After scratching his head, he subconsciously refuted Valon's words again.
"It's not just that archaeologist who's a bit tricky to deal with. Now even Spider-Man has his eye on the talisman. The few of us are no match for him... Ughhhhh—!"
This time, not only did Afen and Zhou have red eyes, but they also turned to look at Lasu, wanting to kill this useless teammate who only caused trouble.
Even Tru, standing behind the three, couldn't bear to watch Rasu act foolishly and provoke hatred. He expressionlessly reached out and covered Rasu's mouth tightly to prevent him from continuing to speak and further provoking Valon's anger.
"That makes sense... Jackie Chan alone is troublesome enough, and now there's Spider-Man too..."
Fortunately, Rasu’s statement, which seemed to contradict Valon, inadvertently became Valon’s mouthpiece, revealing the awkward situation the Mafia is currently facing.
Therefore, Valon not only did not get angry at Rasu, but instead followed Rasu's lead, turned to look at the lifelike dragon head statue hanging on the wall, and began to complain in a serious manner.
"My Lord, look at us! My Mafia, a force to be reckoned with, has been busy for so long trying to get your talisman, only to make enemies along the way and gain absolutely nothing... If this continues, we might be destroyed by Spider-Man before we even get the Golden Rooster King's treasure. Don't you think you should give us a little something in return, so we'll have the motivation to continue fighting Spider-Man and searching for your talisman?"
"That's all because of you! You're utterly incompetent! I even handed over command of the Shadow Legion to you, and you couldn't even handle a mere archaeologist!"
As soon as Valon finished speaking, the dragon head statue, which looked like an inanimate object, lit up with a scarlet color in its eyes.
The next second, Shendu, also filled with rage due to the repeated failures of the Mafia's operations, unceremoniously belittled the entire Mafia to nothing in front of Valon.
"Valon, don't worry about temporary gains and losses... Look, as long as I can break the seal, what you've lost now will be made up for tenfold or a hundredfold with the help of the Golden Rooster King's treasure!"
Of course, having lived for so many years, the Holy Lord still understands the principle of giving a sweet treat after a beating.
So, before Valon's face could grow even darker, he had a chance to retort.
The Holy Lord then controlled a ninja soldier who emerged from the shadows, holding a delicate, pure gold rooster-shaped container in both hands.
Then, in front of everyone present, she opened the lid, revealing the container filled to the brim with various precious jewels. Without giving Valon a chance to take one, she took the priceless container and returned to the embrace of the shadows.
Only then did he continue speaking slowly, offering a reminder to Valon.
"Besides, it's not like you have no chance at all... I can sense that a talisman has come to us on its own and is now standing outside the gate, waiting for you to open it and welcome it."
"What? Such a good thing?"
Upon hearing the words of the Holy Lord, Vallon, who had been feeling disappointed that he could only see the Golden Rooster King's treasure but not touch it, suddenly became interested.
He then turned his head and saw the ninja soldier emerge from the shadows and slowly pull open the tightly closed door.
A familiar figure, leading a large group of heavily armed men, surged into the Black Hand Gang's hall.
And the leader was none other than Kingpin, who had recently lost his foothold due to Riley's machinations.
"Kingpin? What a rare guest..."
Both being involved in the underworld, Valmont was clearly no stranger to Kingpin.
This is why even when Kingpin made a sudden visit, he brought a large number of soldiers.
Vallon, arms crossed, continued to make sarcastic remarks about Kingpin.
"Instead of staying true to your role as the underground emperor of New York, you suddenly bring so many people to my territory... What, have you suddenly had a change of heart, realized you have no future in this line of work, and want to come and work for me?"
Based on Valmont's understanding of Kingpin, he knew that if Kingpin had truly come to fight the Black Hand, he wouldn't have walked in so obediently.
Instead, the moment the door opened, they unleashed their full power, wiping out every living creature in the hall.
Moreover, despite the Mafia's repeated defeats and seemingly comedic antics when facing Uncle Jackie Chan, making them appear utterly harmless...
But you should know that as a world-renowned criminal organization, the Mafia is so powerful that the US government had to establish District 13 specifically to combat its activities!
This is enough to prove that the overall strength of the Mafia is far superior to Kingpin's!
This is why Valon dared to openly mock Kingpin even when he was outnumbered, showing absolutely no respect!
"You're quite the joker, Mr. Valon... In fact, I've come here to make a deal with you. Of course, to show my sincerity, I've also brought you a small gift."
Just as Valon guessed, Kingpin, who was now severely weakened and could no longer be a rival of the Black Hand, would not break ties with the Black Hand at this critical juncture.
On the contrary, Kingpin sought the Mafia's assistance based on the principle that the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
As soon as he finished speaking, Kingpin turned his head slightly and gestured to his men to bring over a metal briefcase.
After entering the corresponding password and opening it in public, you will find a small, angular trinket with a rabbit pattern engraved on it lying quietly inside a large suitcase.
