Unless she abandons her mission and risks being hated by the Lu people for the rest of her life, some underground club is definitely Barbara's place.
Nowadays, gangsters almost never have a good ending.
However, Lu Yan returned immediately after sending Skye home. Although no one explained, Lu Yan knew who Thor was and that he shouldn't have died, so saving Thor's underlings wouldn't be an easy task!
Seeing Thor lying on the ground with her limbs broken, Gene was furious. He couldn't wait to lead his men straight to the Lower East Side and tear this ungrateful bitch to pieces.
In all these years, no one in the New York underworld has ever dared to slap him like that!
But after several years in the mob, and after he smashed two tables during a downturn, Gene calmed down.
Thor isn't weak; you can tell he couldn't beat his opponent even without taking his pants off. Now that he's in this state, you can see his opponent's strength far exceeded his expectations.
Although Jin felt that with his true strength he could definitely defeat Thor, he certainly couldn't just charge in headfirst when facing an enemy of unknown power.
Everyone thinks he's a reckless fool, but if he really were a simple-minded fool, Jinhe wouldn't have been on the road ten years ago!
After all, Kim was different from the man lying on the ground: he had a good father, and no one dared to kill him.
"A girl who can outrun half a street with a wave of her hand? And that enormous girl who walks like a ghost, drifting around?" After getting information about the enemy from the surviving servants, Jin Jin hesitated.
If he hadn't received reports that Moonlight Club had collapsed due to a gas explosion, and, incidentally, that a group of FBI agents had cordoned off the entire block, Gene would have thought his men were lying to him.
What kind of power is this that can overturn half a street with a wave of the hand?
Kim scratched his head helplessly. After the battle between the two green giants in New York last year, the world has slowly become dangerous.
First, a flying tin man appeared overhead, then four turtles jumped out to continue their journey.
Subsequently, the special forces that surfaced 0.9 meters above the water in this back alley also severely impacted his business. The cowardly Mrs. Gao, after learning of the failure to eliminate the Punisher, even cut off contact with him and fled to who knows where.
He felt he controlled everything in the world, and that he knew everything, whether the public knew it or not.
But now Kim suddenly feels like he has lost touch with the world.
“Shu, we shouldn’t get into too much trouble with Barbara before we find out who’s behind her.” After ordering his men to take Thor downstairs for treatment, Wesley immediately turned to King and warned her.
"She dared to disregard the rules I set and beat my men like this. If I do nothing, won't everyone think I'm a bully?" Xiao Jin clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.
Chapter 500 Experience Recruitment
The Night Owl Queen Barbara suddenly appeared, not only disregarding the jungle rules established by the Kings, but also killing many of her rivals' henchmen. It is said that even Thor, the Kings' number one two-colored red staff bear, was castrated!
But rumors are always half true and half false, so it's up to you to guess how true they are!
Even Bigfoot Snyder only managed to develop in Brooklyn, but he never dared to set foot in any part of Manhattan.
Now, the Queen of the Night has made her move, throwing the Manhattan Mafia into chaos, and the entire New York Police Department has immediately gone on high alert. Xu Fu-Stacey, the acting commissioner of the NYPD, has gained a few more gray hairs during this time.
It's time for the old director to retire, and with the support of Stark Industries, there's no doubt that the director's seat will belong to him.
But at this time, the New York Mafia made such a huge leap that Deputy Sheriff Stacey was under immense pressure.
It's important to know that the other deputy directors also have powerful backers, though not as many as Stark's conglomerate, but they can still be considered a part of the financial elite.
The New York Police Commissioner is essentially a subordinate position, so it's natural that conglomerates would want it.
Pepper Potts invested in Schiff-Stacey. Besides saving Tony's life, a significant reason was that he filed a report with the New York City Police Department.
Admittedly, if Stark's group really wanted to do something, a police chief alone would definitely not be able to stop them. But as the saying goes, it's better to have officials in charge in the county. The police chief is one of their own, so it's always much easier to get things done, isn't it?
If any major street shooting were to occur during his tenure, Acting Chief of Staff Stasi felt that his remaining colleagues would not miss such a good opportunity.
As a result, Police Chief Stasi did not go home for several days, but stayed at police headquarters 24 hours a day to deal with any emergencies.
Of course, no one could possibly know about this, but Gwen mentioned it casually when she came to visit Wanda, so he knew about it.
"Night Owl Queen, what a nonsensical name!" Someone looked at Barbara kneeling in front of them, working hard with her head down, and felt a strange sense of excitement.
Of course, it's much better to have the Queen of the New York Mafia than to keep your toys locked in the basement.
After all, once you reach a certain point, all women look the same, and it's almost impossible to tell the top from the bottom.
However, when the complexion is similar, other halos will add extra points.
The reason he couldn't get Kavanaugh out of his mind was because of the aura surrounding him!
“If you don’t like it, Boss, will I ask to change it immediately?” Barbara asked hastily, a charming smile on her face.
"It's alright, it's nothing... What did Fatty Jin say?" Someone patted Barbara's head, signaling her to continue, and after about ten minutes, slowly asked.
"Jinhua sent someone over to see you, Boss, but I didn't answer him without your permission," Barbara reported, swallowing hard.
All of this happens in every corner of the city, as if a war could break out on the streets of Manhattan at any moment, but it will never actually happen.
Kim Jong-il would never go to war over such a thing, so his plan to clear his name after so many years would completely fail.
That said, as a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, one could argue that Barbara went undercover to become a gangster, but if a war broke out on the streets of Manhattan, even Black Halibut wouldn't dare say he'd bail her out!
Both sides are afraid of each other, and negotiation is the only way out.
Of course, Kim Jong-il wanted to negotiate with the people behind Barbara; after all, he knew that Barbara was by no means the decision-maker.
“Jin and…” someone thoughtfully propped up his chin; he had seen this bald man more than once since he came to New York, but he didn’t recognize him.
"Make an appointment!" Because he wanted to support Barbara as the underground queen in New York, and Kim was an obstacle he couldn't get around, so after some thought, he made a decision.
This fat man isn't anyone important or irreplaceable, so if he knew what he was doing, he might survive.
But if the other party doesn't know how to behave, he doesn't mind sending them on their way.
As the head of the New York Mafia, Gene was unaware of how many innocent people had died on his hands, and killing such a person would definitely be a contribution to society.
What do you think of the idea that the New York Mafia would go on a rampage after Kim Jong-il and his own death?
How could Barbara rise to power if she didn't mess things up? And how could an underground queen be brought on stage if she didn't?
Furthermore, some people have become even more excited since we discovered that Barbara is a bird that makes superhero sounds.
At least it's a well-known superhero, not as famous as Black Widow, but that's part of its value!
Not to mention, it was quite amusing to watch Barbara struggle to hide her identity in front of him.
The negotiations with Gene were met with an immediate response. Gene requested that the negotiations take place in Hell's Kitchen, as it was his territory. As the dominant mob in New York, Gene dared not infringe on someone else's territory.
"Do you need me to bring people in, BOSS?" Barbara asked softly, standing next to Xu Fu.
Since both sides wanted to resolve the issue as soon as possible, the negotiation was scheduled for 9 p.m.
While other parts of Manhattan may still be bustling with traffic at 9 p.m., in places like Hell's Kitchen, that time can be described as chaotic and disorganized.
Seeing her opponent unarmed, Barbara was terrified and prepared to fight her one-on-one, even though she knew she possessed terrifying power.
You should know that Hell's Kitchen is the main territory of Gene and Gene, and only God knows what kind of trap the other side has laid somewhere.
"What are you doing with all this junk behind the wheel!" someone shrugged dismissively, then patted Barbara, gesturing for her to drive.
It's all show and no substance, so what's there to worry about? Once you're done, you won't even be late for a snack.
As the saying goes, if you're on another level, you'll see things from a completely different perspective.
To others, Jin is a tall, imposing underworld mastermind who controls the lives of countless people, but in his eyes, his opponent is merely a repeating reward! In his eyes, Jin is a tall, imposing underworld mastermind!
Chapter 501 Scaring Yourself
"Xu Fu, a descendant of Chinese from Sokovia, Italy, came to New York seventeen months ago and found a job in a shop dealing in antiques. He is a very lecherous man and has several beautiful women in his mansion. Caster is now working for someone else."
Looking at the information Wesley had gathered, Jin Yi frowned, and royal wrinkles appeared on his face.
"Is that all?" This information was practically useless. The thought of the other party about to enter into negotiations, while he knew nothing about their strength, filled Kim Eun with a deep emptiness.
Knowing your enemy is the only way to win every battle. How can you know the weaknesses of an enemy you know nothing about?
“They basically didn’t leave any useful audio-visual materials, but based on my investigation, they are very likely connected to Stark’s organization!” Wesley said after thinking it over.
"They appear to have close ties with the NYPD's new deputy commissioner, Stacey. Another woman has been seen shopping in a red Ferrari for the past two months; it's a limited edition Ferrari that was once part of Tony Stark's personal collection."
“Tony Stark?” King was a little dumbfounded, not understanding why these things were happening to this particular person.
Indeed, he was known as the underground emperor of New York. Even the mayor of New York City, a councilman, meant nothing to him. He even dared to cut off S.H.I.E.L.D.'s beard, as if he were fearless.
But in reality, some people would never dare to hurt the other person!
After all, this is America. It's not a big deal to offend a few congressmen and mayors, or even to fight the president.
Besides this, how many presidents in American history have been assassinated?
But it's people like Tony Stark and Norman Osborn, high-ranking tycoons or old men like Roxon, who truly hold sway in America.
If it really was Tony Stark who wanted to kill him, Kim believed that if he didn't pack his things and leave, he would have no chance. If it was Tony Stark who wanted to get rid of him, Kim believed that if he didn't pack his things and leave immediately, he would have no chance to turn the tide.
These two people are not even in the same league. Only a fool would think that shaking a tree is a feat!
“Tony Stark shouldn’t have anything to do with the underground business; someone like him would never get involved in that kind of business.” Seeing the puzzled look on King’s face, Wesley quickly said.
As the saying goes, care is the key to success. Kim was just influenced by the terror of Stark Industries and lost his most basic caution in the process.
The underground transactions in New York City generate more than $1 billion in revenue for the Kings each year and challenge the imaginations of 99 percent of the world’s population.
But this amount was nothing to Tony; he could earn many times that amount just by placing two orders with the American military!
Furthermore, because top conglomerates are eager to save face, this "dirty" money is not what they actually see.
"Based on my analysis, Barbara must have used her charm to get in touch with this Mr. Li, and this Mr. Li must be one of the hidden executives of Stark Industries. According to a secret report from an informant, another person involved appeared at Stark Industries last year."
