Tokyo Detective

Chapter 457 describes the brutal methods of the mafia and can be skipped.
Places are extremely limited and can only be obtained by going to the European Commission – Directorate-General for Marine Affairs and Fisheries.

Having a quota means representing Italy at the European Commission's annual allocation meeting, and you can get at least 10 tons of tuna, up from 30 tons before the decline of Malena Fisheries.

Businesses like the Pacino family's, which are much larger than the former Malena Corporation, face significant difficulties in obtaining permits due to their involvement in organized crime. The Directorate General of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries is concerned that gangs might circulate illegally caught tuna through the black market.

Harry Pacino, as the head of the family's fishing business, had been putting up with his defeated rival for a year, waiting for him to give up and "voluntarily" sell to him. Who knew that today Malena would catch a bluefin tuna.

He didn't want to wait a few more years; the representative slots Italy granted to Malena Company were only for five years, and two years had already passed.

So he wanted to get the spot as soon as possible, and at the same time, he wanted to pin the woman in front of him down, kill his business rival, and then get his hands on her. It was really pleasing.

Harry Pacino reached out his hand.

"Marlena, this is better for everyone."

"."

Just then, a hand took Malena's place and grasped Harry Pacino's hand. Naoki Hanyu pushed Malena aside and asked in a casual tone.

“My name is Clark Kent. It’s nice to meet you. I heard you want to buy the tuna I caught.”

Harry Pacino raised his hand to stop his men who were making a move behind him, a playful expression on his face.

"Harry Pacino, that's right, 40 euros should be no problem for a tuna."

"The price is fine, but I don't want to sell it to you."

The moment he finished speaking, the atmosphere turned tense. As the young master of Sicily's top gang, Harry Pacino had no intention of making a move in front of everyone, at least he wouldn't do it himself.

"why?"

"I didn't expect Mr. Harry to ask why. You're the one who threatened my boss."

The two men looked at each other, were about the same height, and were less than half a meter apart. One was dressed as a fisherman, while the other wore a black overcoat and a suit.
Malena didn't want Naoki Hanyu to offend the local gangs; this was not a responsibility that a stowaway could bear, even if the stowaway was unfathomable.

"Clark"

Naoki Hanyu turned to look at the woman, interrupting her.

"Leave it to me, I'll handle it."

"."

Harry Pacino realized he seemed to have encountered a "love rival," but it was absurd to have a love rival in a fisherman.

"If you don't sell it to me, who else can you sell it to? The seafood auction house won't take it, and other competitors won't take it either. Are you just going to let it rot in your own warehouse?"

Naoki Hanyu looked at one of the onlookers. Based on his observation, the man was a Greek seafood buyer, and he seemed to be quite wealthy.

"Sir, would you like to buy it for 25 euros?"

"???"

The middle-aged Greek man paused for a moment.
"Sell it to me?"

"Yes, whether you want it or not, you can make 15 euros just by reselling it."

"."

The Greek looked at the local gangs with apprehension, but he wasn't entirely unmoved; he didn't come to Sicily often and didn't need to worry about the local gangs.

Harry Pacino was so angry he laughed. 150,000 euros! That's eight years' salary for an ordinary fisherman. He just couldn't believe the man in front of him would sell it. Even if the Greek fishmonger agreed, what about Malena and the other two fishermen?
"You don't need to look at me. You're trading freely, and I won't interfere."

Upon hearing this, the Greeks gritted their teeth and stepped forward to negotiate, and it went very smoothly. Two of Jasco's employees helped load the tuna onto the other ship, and wow, the audience was mesmerized.

Doesn't the boss have any objections? Don't the two employees have any objections? Obviously, they don't know that Naoki Hanyu caught this fish all by himself.

As the Greek fishing boats left the harbor, Harry Pacino's smile turned sinister, and his men, sensing the danger, rushed forward to teach someone a lesson.

"boom"

The burly man was punched in the stomach and then pinned to the ground by Naoki Hanyu.

"click"

Naoki Hanyu released the man and looked at the gangster who had already drawn his gun. A murderous glint flashed in his eyes. He hated having a gun pointed at him, and besides, no one here knew him, so he could do whatever he wanted.

Harry Pacino didn't order the guns to be fired, nor did he tell his men to pull back; he simply stared coldly at his formidable "rival."

Two police officers nearby were also a bit confused. Should they get involved?
Just then, a gangster hurriedly handed Harry Pacino a phone. Soon, the gangster's young master's expression changed drastically, and he immediately left with his men.

Several luxury cars arrived and left quickly, and Naoki Hanyu's expression was somewhat amused, because he heard a woman's voice on the phone, presumably Harry Pacino's mother, who was sending him a message.

"Your father has been shot and killed. Come back quickly."

It's quite an interesting development that the godfather (boss) of Sicily's biggest gang was shot in the back.

As the play ended and the audience dispersed, Naoki Hanyu looked at Malena and shrugged.

"I'm sorry, I've made you earn less."

Malena gave the other person a charmingly disdainful look.

"You can do whatever you want with your fish."

"Okay, then hurry up and finish up the leftovers so I can go home. I'm really tired."

Malena looked at the relaxed man in front of her and didn't know what to say. She knew what the gang wanted from her: a spot to catch valuable fish, so they usually wouldn't just kill her directly.

But this man is different. No one cares when an illegal immigrant dies, so why is he so calm? Isn't he afraid of retaliation from the gang?
Malena didn't know, but she didn't seem to dislike the feeling of having a man standing in front of her, sheltering her from the wind and rain.

"Clark, you've got the money and you want to move out of the warehouse, is that right?"

"Didn't I say you were going to kick me out?"

"But you have money now."

Naoki Hanyu spread his hands.

“Although I have money, I am just an illegal immigrant. Even if I have money, it may be taken away by the immigration authorities. I was planning to deposit my money with you first.”

"."

Finally, Malena gritted her teeth and made her decision.

"I have two empty rooms in my house. You can move in if you don't mind."

"thank you boss."

Naoki Hanyu hugged his boss with a happy expression, instantly experiencing her perfectly proportioned, voluptuous figure, which was like a ripe fruit, sweet and juicy.

Malena, on the other hand, was not so relaxed; it was the first time in over a year that she had been held by a man.
.
Meanwhile, Harry Pacino hurriedly flew back to Palermo, the capital city of Sicily, a "big city" with 70 people, and the Pacino family's stronghold.

Harry Pacino first meets his mother, Sofia Pacino, and his brother, Owen Pacino.

Of course, the most important thing was to meet his father's partner, his uncle Ed Martinez, who had been in charge of managing the Pacino family's business, and Ed's son, his half-brother Robert Martinez.

Within the Pacino family, Harry Pacino is the successor to the next Godfather, while Robert is similarly groomed to be the next business leader.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, they will support each other like their fathers and become leaders of one of the top gangs in Sicily and even Italy.

Pacino's main businesses include construction, fishing, maritime smuggling, and air smuggling. It has partnerships with many capital entities in Sicily and even Italy, making it a very large entity on the island of Sicily.
.
Harry Pacino looked sadly at his father's familiar face on the coffin, and the gunshot wound on his head that could not be completely hidden. He felt his anger burning away his reason. If it weren't for the comforting words of his brother Robert Martinez, he would have killed all the suspects.

"My father was attacked on Bran's territory. They owe me an explanation. Also, has my father's driver been found?"

The Bran gang is one of the top five gangs in Sicily. They have a lot of cooperation with the Pacino family in Palermo, and the older generation has many connections with them. Although Harry Pacino does not think the other party is suspected of taking action, he cannot rule it out.

Furthermore, Thomas Pacino's driver and bodyguard also disappeared after his death, right in Bran's territory, so he would not let it go unless the other party gave an explanation.

Robert Martinez offered words of comfort.

“Harry, we need to investigate the Godfather’s death, but for now, it’s best to stabilize our partners.”

Harry Pacino looked menacing.

"Heh, the murderer might be one of those guys."

Robert Martinez cupped his brother's face in his hands and pressed his forehead against his brother's.

“Brother, the family needs business, and so do we. Only by lowering these people’s guard can we find the murderer more easily.”

"."

Harry Pacino finally nodded.

"The business is in your hands, Robert."

"Don't worry, leave it to me."

Robert Martinez walked confidently into the conference room. In fact, with Thomas Pacino dead, all the partners were worried about whether it would affect their ability to make money, so they came for reassurance.

While Martinez and his son were inside comforting their business partners, Sofia Pacino suddenly came out and whispered something to her son.

"Harry, do you think any of the people inside are the murderers who killed your father?"

Harry realized what his mother wanted to say.

"Mother, Robert and Uncle will handle it well."

“They will only make concessions for business, but you are different. Thomas is dead. If you want to secure your position, you need to ruthlessly cleanse the Sopacino family of their humiliation. It’s not good to open the sea, land, and air to those people. What if they send their pre-arranged people out or into Sicily?”

"."

Sofia cupped her son's face in her hands.

“My son, all I want is for you to inherit the position of godfather of the family safely. Your good brother Robert has a higher reputation than you, so you must eliminate your enemies to secure your position.”

Harry was persuaded.
.
A few minutes later, Harry Pacino suddenly burst into the conference room, attracting the attention of the group of "partners" who had been waiting in line.

Harry sat down next to his best friend and said coldly.

"Nothing can be brought in, nothing can be taken out, no money laundering, no drug trafficking on the streets, everything must stop until I find the real culprit."

Harry took out a bullet and placed it on the table, and the dozen or so people present fell silent. Robert was also surprised, not expecting Harry to suddenly come in and ruin everything he had agreed upon.

However, as the new Godfather of Sicily, Harry has that authority.

Ed Martinez, who was watching from the sidelines, saw all of this. As the second-in-command of the gang, he was even more powerful than Harry, who had not yet officially taken over. However, he did not refute it because he was Harry's uncle.

After the meeting ended, Harry and Robert went to a side room to discuss things, while Ed suddenly received a phone call.

“Ed, Harry Pacino’s decision is bad, bad for both of us.”

So what do you want me to do?

"Get rid of Harry, and we'll let you and your son take control of the Pacino family. You can call it the Martinez family from now on."

Ed frowned.

"So you guys made Thomas?"

"No, it's just that I feel Harry is in everyone's way."

After hanging up the phone, Ed knew very well that the financial forces behind the scenes had a reason to deal with Thomas, because over the years, Thomas had embezzled nearly 10 billion euros from them, something he had only recently learned.

"damn it."
.
Half a day later, the Bran gang delivered the missing driver to the Pacino family as their explanation.

Harry Pacino led the people to a building under construction.

"Who ordered you to do this?"

The driver, his face bruised and swollen, begged for mercy.

“Boss Harry, you’ve misunderstood me. I really didn’t know. I just thought I would be punished for failing to protect you properly, so I ran away.”

"Really? Who are these people to you?"

The driver turned his head and was instantly horrified, because his wife and two children had been brought along. Hadn't they gone abroad?

"No, no, they are innocent, please don't hurt them."

"Then you should obediently tell me some things you want to know."

The driver eventually confessed that someone had given him a large sum of money, and all he needed to do was create an opportunity for the other party to assassinate him. He also saw the person who carried out the assassination, the second son of the Davis family.

"The Davis family?"

This is a mid-sized Sicilian gang, all Irish, that also does business with the Pacino family. In the past, their relationship was alright. He remembered that Luke Davis's son was only 16 years old this year and had not yet completed the gang's coming-of-age ceremony, which was to kill a human being.

Harry Pacino knew what he wanted to know, and coldly gave orders to his subordinates in the face of the pleading driver.

"Dispose of it."

"Do not."

The driver and his family of four were crammed into a hollow load-bearing column. Then, an automatic grouting pump poured cement into the column, and screams of agony from the woman and child could be heard.

"Help."

"let me out."

The cement pillar was quickly filled, and the four victims had disappeared.

Harry Pacino looked down at the city below. From this moment on, he was no longer the young master, but Pacino's true master, the godfather of Sicily.

Half a day later, Luke Davis suddenly brought his second son to the Pacino family executives who were having dinner at a high-end hotel, while Connor Davis, the man who shot Thomas, was bruised and swollen and could barely walk.

Harry Pacino looked at the uninvited father and son and asked coldly.

"The reason you came."

Luke Davis showed a hint of reluctance, but still handed his son over to the other party. He then took out a phone and opened a webpage on the Italian dark web.

Luke Davis knew that the other party was probably aware that his son was a gunman, so he acted decisively.

“My foolish son took a job on the dark web a couple of days ago to kill a sadistic pervert as part of his coming-of-age ceremony. He did it based on intelligence from the dark web, only to find out later that the target was your father.”

The Italian dark web—Harry Pacino remembers this dark web as having complex relationships, with not only local forces behind it, but also top assassin organizations such as the Continental Hotel and the Assassin Guild.

If what the other party said is true, then this matter is even more complicated.

Harry Pacino took a sip of red wine and asked.

"So why did you come?"

"The decision Connor Davis has made to you is meant to prove to you that someone wants to use me to create conflict with you. As long as you can forgive the Davis family, we can still be allies standing together."

Harry Pacino looked at the mob boss in front of him in silence, and finally nodded.

"I understand. Take your son and go back first."

Luke Davis was pleasantly surprised to hear this, not expecting the other party to be so magnanimous as to forgive them.

"Thank you very much. I will definitely cooperate with Pacino to fight our common enemy."

"Yes, we'll let you know if we need anything."

After Davis and his son left, Harry Pacino suddenly looked at his uncle, Ed Martinez.

"Uncle, has the intelligence gathering on the Davis family been completed?"

Ed was stunned. He thought Harry had really forgiven the other person, but he didn't expect him to still try to harm him.

"Harry, why?"

“I’m doing this to eliminate the root of the problem, for the sake of the Pacino family.”

"."

At this moment, Ed felt resentment towards Harry. As a businessman, he still felt uncomfortable seeing such ruthlessness.

On the outskirts of Palermo, there is a small village built by Irish people, which is also the core territory of the Davis family. The people living there are the senior members of the Davis family and their families.

In the center of the village, around a bonfire, Luke Davis is gathering everyone in the village to perform a coming-of-age ceremony for his son, a Fenian ceremony from the Irish Classical Era (before the 5th century AD).

In front of more than 60 people, he smeared bull's blood on his son's forehead.

"My son, today you are an adult."

"Father."

Connor Davis looked at his father with a complicated expression. Although his father had chosen to abandon him today, he had indeed saved his life. After tomorrow, he would go to America to avoid trouble.

Just then, a gang member on guard duty with a gun was shot and killed by a sniper rifle, and the sound of his body falling from the second floor startled everyone present.

Before they could react, more than thirty fully armed assassins emerged from three directions in the darkness. They were armed with automatic rifles, their faces covered, and some were even firing rocket launchers at densely populated areas.

"boom"

More than ten people died in an instant, half of whom were children and women.

The next second, three groups of assassins advanced in formation, firing as they went, killing off a large number of the surrounded Irishmen.

"bang bang bang bang"

Corpses littered the ground, and any sporadic resistance was quickly wiped out.

An Irishman hiding in the house was killed by a grenade thrown in before he could fire a few shots. A woman holding a child and hiding in a corner was also killed by the assassin.

Thus, the blood pooled in the low-lying areas, forming a blood pool that resembled a purgatory.

Luke Davis crawled out from among the corpses. Shots in all four limbs made him unable to move easily, but he didn't care about any of that. The deaths of his wife, son, grandson, and dozens of people in the entire village even made him let out a silent, hoarse cry.

"Ah, Pacino."

"boom."

The bullet pierced Luke's head, but the more than 30 killers did not leave immediately. Instead, they fired shots at the corpses on the ground or entered the building to search for possible survivors.

Shortly afterward, the three children and two injured people were found and executed, followed by the arrival of cleaners to clear the scene.
.
At the Pacino family headquarters, a heated argument was taking place, with Robert and Harry arguing with each other.

“Harry, there are still many children there, how could you do that?”

"I'm doing this all for the sake of the family; I have to eliminate them completely."

"."

The two parted on bad terms. Harry Pacino felt incredibly frustrated and desperately wanted to release the pressure. One way to release pressure was through women.

Harry Pacino thought of the woman he had his eye on, and then of the guy who had dared to annoy him a couple of days ago, whose subordinates reported that they were living together.

Harry Pacino muttered to himself.

"I have no patience left to wait. I want the person, I want the spot, and I want to kill the man."

Meanwhile, on the other side, Robert Martinez also spoke frankly with his father, feeling that Harry's actions were bad for everyone.

It wasn't just the Martinez family; many others were also playing a game around the Pacino family. This was an underground power struggle that would affect the landscape of Sicily and even the whole of Italy.
