American variety show: The Godfather, the Peace Ambassador, what the heck?

Chapter 63 Take Down the Big Boss!

Lyon returned to the club.

"mission completed."

"You've worked hard. Now, let's enjoy some champagne tonight."

Luca glanced at the panel, then, accompanied by Leon, who was dressed in a suit and looked like a security chief, they walked through the banquet hall and found their friends gathering.

The people sitting at these tables are all acquaintances.

One table was occupied by Matilda, Uncle Biao and his wife, Brian, Nancy, and others; another table was occupied by Jordan and his buddies; and yet another table was occupied by Old Zuo, Downey, and a few other members of the Mafia.

Luca placed Leon next to Brian.

It's unclear how the two got along so well—one an older, handsome young man, and the other a blond-haired Luca who spends his days racing cars and chasing girls. Leon rarely speaks to others, but he usually talks a lot with Brian.

Does he want Brian to introduce him to a girlfriend?

If that's the case, Luca thinks it's a good thing; if possible, he can even offer Lyon some advice.

Sicilians also love to meddle in other people's family affairs. If a brother in the family has a troubled marriage or relationship, even the gang leader will step in to advise and mediate.

Its main purpose is to help the government reduce the divorce rate.

If a small family can't unite, how can a large family unite?

Fortunately, the peace ambassador is not married yet.

Luca felt a chill run down his spine. Mad might introduce him to someone at any moment—a quirk of some gangsters and bosses, but they were very good at judging women. The women they introduced were all virtuous, good at managing a household, knew how to take care of men, were not domineering, were sensible, and were excellent wives.
Luca glanced at the bachelor Leon and thought to himself, "Leon isn't even married, why is he in such a hurry?"
He turned around and went on to attend to the other guests.

Soon another rare card arrived.

This is the first rare card Luca discovered after the Awakening System was implemented.

[Character Card: White Tiger (Mark Antoine)]

White Tiger: D

[Source: Rumble in the Bronx]

[Skill: None]

[Bond: Friends]

In the original storyline, this guy got into a conflict with his nephew over the diamond case, and was eventually crushed into a meat patty by his invincible nephew in a hovercraft.

A white tiger.
Luca sighed. This kind of background character with only a few shots could only get a D card. He didn't even have any skills. He was just there to highlight how awesome his nephew was.

Honestly, why did they have to mess with anyone?
Why do they insist on arresting my nephew?

No, they're now on my peace ambassador's side.

My nephew no longer needs to worry about beautiful women causing trouble.

"Luca!"

The white tiger walked up to Luca and embraced him warmly; their relationship appeared to be quite good.

Luca led the White Tiger to Marigio's table. As soon as they sat down, both Marigio and the White Tiger's phones rang at the same time.

The two men's expressions changed drastically after they answered the phone!

Fake!

The second boss was murdered!
The sudden news did not break the club's jubilant atmosphere, but undercurrents were already surging beneath the surface.

Upstairs in the cigar room, the Lucchese family left the banquet hall and came here to discuss Dominic's death.

"Damn it!" Marigio slammed his fist on the table. "Revenge! This is naked revenge! That bastard Galant! It must have been him. He didn't have an execution order, yet he dared to attack us? Isn't he afraid of starting a war between the two families?!"

A flicker of fear crossed the White Tiger's eyes. If it really was Garant, who was breaking the committee's rules without restraint and acting recklessly, and since he was also in the drug business, would that guy follow the trail and get rid of him as well?
"What a joke! You're all going to execute him, do you expect him to surrender without a fight?!"

The sound came from the doorway. Everyone turned around and saw Pauli Cicero arrive. With his white hair, he sat down on the sofa, looked around at everyone, and stared coldly at them.
"Dominic should have foreseen the serious consequences the day he pushed through the execution order! Executing the head of a family is unprecedented in decades, and I wouldn't be surprised by any chain reaction."

Many Mafia bosses have died from murder, but to be executed openly by the committee, especially by someone of such high status as a big boss, is absolutely unprecedented.

White Tiger stared at Poly with a gloomy gaze. "Poly, what's the big boss's reaction? Have you spoken with him?"

Pauli shook his head: "Bartolo told us to keep quiet for now. It's not certain yet whether Galant was behind it; he denies it."

Bartolo is the strategist and advisor of the Lucchese family, mainly involved in both legitimate and illegitimate businesses, and is considered a cash cow.

“Of course he wouldn’t admit to something like this!” Marigio cursed. “Who the hell would be stupid enough to admit to killing a full-fledged member? I bet it was Galant who did it!”

“You can say that to us,” Paulie shook his head. “Go out this door, forget all of this, if you remember what it means to remain silent.”

White Tiger: "What exactly do you plan to do above?"

Poly: "Let's wait for the notification. If nothing unexpected happens, we will hold another symposium."

The White Tiger shut his mouth, his mind racing as he considered the chain reaction of Dominic's death. First, there was his drug business—he and Marigio had always run it for Dominic, with no one else involved. Now that their boss was dead, the drug business would be theirs to divide up.

But how are they going to divide it?! Mariggio isn't someone to be trifled with; he has a ruthless butcher under his command.
In addition, with Dominic's death, the position of second boss became vacant.

Among the gang leaders in the family, probably none of them wouldn't want to move up in rank.

But there's only one spot, so who should it be given to?

Mariggio? Paulie? Or other key figures who haven't arrived yet?
White Tiger felt a surge of murderous intent, but quickly suppressed it. The big boss was still there, the strategist was still there, and internal strife was not advisable for the time being.

To become the second-in-command, you need to gain the approval of the top boss.

Because this position wasn't elected; it was a one-man show by the big boss.

And his biggest competitor is Marigio!
Poly's earning power is limited, but he has a good relationship with the big boss and poses a certain threat.

Luca got up and headed to the restroom.

Dominic is dead, and a new gang leader will be promoted to manage the family affairs in name only, replacing the big boss.

Luca has already decided whose butt he's going to push from behind.

Who else but Marigio?
With Marigio's rise to power, Luca will rise to prominence along with him.

"Luca!"

Marigio followed them out and went into the restroom with Luca. After closing the door and making sure no one was eavesdropping, he grabbed Luca's shoulders and said seriously:

"This was done by the Bonanno family, it couldn't have been anyone else! No one else would have had any motive! Remember, no matter what, it could only have been done by that damn Galant, it could only have been done by that damn Bonanno family! Do you understand what I mean?"

Luca's eyes flickered slightly, and he nodded: "Isn't it obvious? Of course, it was Galant's people who did it!"

Marigio's expression was complicated. He stared at Luca's face for a long time, then finally sighed and pulled Luca into a tight embrace.
“Good lad!! You are more suited to be a Mafia than I am or your father, but don’t forget that you also have Uncle Marigio by your side. I promised your father that I would take care of you, and there will always be a set of cutlery for you at my family’s dinner.”

"Rich, Dominic is dead."

David took Dominic's picture off the blackboard. "Just recently, he was murdered at the gate of his estate."

Richie was speechless with shock.

With some scars still on his face, McLean asked curiously, "Dominic? Is that the big boss of the Old Pigeon family?"

"Correct."

"The Lucchese family is about to face turmoil."

Richie didn't know whether to be happy or worried. With a high-ranking member of a Mafia family being purged, it was foreseeable that a series of struggles would inevitably follow.

Old Zuo and Downey were having a great time playing cards and drinking when Black Sonny arrived.

"Sonny, where did you go?"

“I went to the prison and met with Nusti.”

Black Sonny sat down next to Old Zuo, looking preoccupied. "He already knows about last night."

Nusti Rastelli, the second-in-command of the Bonano family, is currently still in prison and has not been released.

But he still wielded immense power, and the prison doors could not prevent him from remotely controlling his family.

"Second Boss?" Old Zuo lowered his voice, recalling what happened last night. "What instructions did he give?"

Old Zuo knew very well that the big boss, Carma Galant, didn't have many followers and his relationship with other families wasn't good. There were many factions within the family, with several bigwigs like Red Sonny constantly vying for power.

As long as Galant was still on the throne, things didn't get too ugly.

Looking at Lao Zuo's familiar face, Black Sunny sighed inwardly, unsure how to face what was to come.

The second-in-command, Nusti, wants to replace the first-in-command, Galant, and takes advantage of the current situation where everyone is in disarray to seize the position.

He also promised Black Sonny that once he came to power, he would promote Black Sonny to the position of gang leader.

It sounds like a good thing, but only if Galant dies can Nusti take over.

Black Sonny never imagined that the situation would deteriorate so quickly.

—He's actually going to be assigned to kill the big boss one day!!
Oh my god, f*** you!!

Black Sonny's heart was pounding with excitement, and his hand holding the wine glass was trembling.

He toasted Lao Zuo, "It's nothing, I just chatted with Nusti about some business matters."

Sunny Black, whose full name is Sunny Black, is also utterly ruthless. He knows he can't tell Old Zuo about this, and he can't let Old Zuo get involved.

I'll take all the credit for myself, and I'll take the leading role too.

Black Sonny vowed that once he took power, he would treat Old Zuo, his old underling, well.
