After seeing off all the big shots who came to pay their respects, Tie Tou handed over the remaining matters at the mourning hall to his underlings, and then drove back to the headquarters with his trusted confidants.

"Boss, are we really going to war with Ren Jiu?" asked his trusted henchman, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"War is all about money. We spent a lot of money on the funeral for Master Hong. It's not a good time to start a war. Since Ren Jiu was able to get Chen Guilin to assassinate Master Hong, we can also find a good man to take him out!"

Iron Head, leaning back in the back seat, calmly said, "After we take care of Ren Jiu, we'll send our men into Ren Jiu's territory. Don't give them a chance to breathe..."

As he was talking to his younger brother, he caught a glimpse of a black motorcycle next to his car out of the corner of his eye. The rider on the motorcycle gestured for them to roll down the window.

Just then, they came to a traffic light. Tie Tou rolled down his window and asked the rider, "What's up?"

"Hello!" The rider lifted his goggles, revealing a bright smile and two rows of white teeth. "Let me introduce myself, my name is Guilinzi!"

Upon hearing the name, Tie Tou's expression changed drastically, and he immediately reached for the black star tucked into his waistband.

But before he could even touch the black star at his waist, Chen Guilin threw something dark through the open car window.

I instinctively turned my head to look, and what I saw was a grenade with the pin pulled.

"Boiled!"

"BOOM!"

Before his curses had even finished, the grenade exploded inside the car.

The destructive power of this fragmentation grenade in the confined space of a vehicle is far greater than in an open area, and Ironhead and his trusted henchmen were instantly wiped out.

Chen Guilin, who killed him, had already turned on the accelerator and quickly left the blast radius before the grenade exploded.

After seeing Tie Tou's car turn into a fireball in the rearview mirror, Chen Guilin's face once again broke into his signature bright smile...

At the same time, Ren Jiu also received a system reward.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for eliminating the Level 1 villain Iron Head and receiving the reward of Marksmanship Mastery. Do you wish to accept the empowerment reward?"

Originally, Tie Tou was not qualified to be a Level 1 villain, but because he inherited Hong Ye's position, he was identified as a Level 1 villain by the system.

Upon receiving the system feedback, Ren Jiu immediately chose to accept the initiation. Instantly, a large amount of firearm knowledge and usage skills were poured into his mind, giving him more than ten years' worth of firearm usage skills.

"Mouse Ming, come over here!" Ren Jiu called out, picking up the phone on the table.

Yesterday he had already checked Lao Shuming's loyalty level. Although it wasn't as high as Chen Guilin's 98, it still reached 93 points, making him a loyal follower.

Therefore, when he arranged for Chen Guilin to get rid of Tie Tou, he also assigned him a task.

Not long after making the call, Lao Shuming pushed open the office door and entered. "Boss!"

"How's the preparation of the manpower I asked you to get going?" Ren Jiu asked.

"We have gathered all the brothers, more than five hundred in total!"

Ren Jiu was just a minor gang leader, and the total number of his underlings was limited. Hong Ye, whom he killed, had about the same number of underlings.

When he ordered Chen Guilin to kill Tie Tou, it wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, but rather a preparation for a full-scale war. The West District only needed one voice, and now that Hong Ye's successor, Tie Tou, had just passed away, it was the perfect opportunity to take advantage of his weakness and kill him. Naturally, he wouldn't miss it...

Chapter Seven: Unifying the Western District, White-Haired Ah Huai

"Boss, I've taken care of that Iron Head guy!" Chen Guilin returned to the club and reported to Ren Jiu in the office.

"Yes, you did a great job. You should rest for a bit. We have things to do tonight!" Ren Jiu said.

Although he already knew Chen Guilin had completed the task when he received the system notification.

He wasn't worried about not being able to handle things when he sent Chen Guilin out. Chen Guilin was the strongest fighter among his men, with a strength level of around Red Stick. Seven or eight ordinary men couldn't get close to him. Unless the news leaked and Tie Tou had taken precautions in advance, they wouldn't have survived today. But he naturally wouldn't say anything in front of Chen Guilin.

"Mouse Ming, get the brothers together!" Ren Jiu turned to Mouse Ming and said.

When Lao Shuming heard that Tie Tou had been dealt with, he knew that something big was about to happen tonight, so he immediately took out his phone to tell his underlings to gather at the club.

His previous statement about gathering people in place only meant that he had notified them in advance to confirm the number of people, which did not count as a real assembly. Now, by calling to notify them, the assembly has officially begun.

Before long, a large number of young men wearing black vests and jeans gathered at the club from all directions.

Five hundred people may not sound like a lot, but once they gathered, they occupied an entire street. It felt like the whole street in front of the club was full of Ren Jiu's underlings.

After counting the number of people, Lao Shuming immediately arranged for all his underlings to board the buses that had been prepared in advance. It took ten buses to fit all five hundred underlings.

Ren Jiu also took the lead and boarded the bus, while Chen Guilin, as usual, closely guarded him.

"You can pass on the word now. Tonight we're going to wipe out Master Hong's territory and unify the West District!" Ren Jiuchong said to Lao Shuming.

Among the underlings in each vehicle, some were excited, some were thrilled, and some were afraid when they heard that they were going to fight Master Hong. However, the former two groups far outnumbered the latter.

After all, everyone in this industry is vying for a position of power. If you don't compete and fight for opportunities, how can you earn merit and climb the ranks? The more opportunities you have, the better your chances of promotion will be...

Hong Ye's hideout was a nightclub called Lido. He was killed by Chen Guilin a couple of days ago after leaving that nightclub.

Now, revisiting the place, Chen Guilin was the first to rush in, carrying a watermelon knife.

The deaths of two leaders had already thrown Hong Ye's men into a state of panic, and now, with Ren Jiu leading his troops into an attack, they were hastily routed and forced to retreat.

In a short time, they lost most of their territory.

Chicken Eyes, who had temporarily taken over as the leader, yelled at Ren Jiu, "Ren Jiu, your Triad is ruthless and ruthless. You better not let me escape, or I, Chicken Eyes, will never let you go and will avenge Brother Iron Head and Master Hong."

Chicken Eyes is Iron Head's right-hand man, but in terms of strength, he doesn't even reach the level of a Red Stick, so he has no right to sit in his current position.

But after Tie Tou died, the others were even worse off than him, so he had to temporarily take charge of the gang's affairs.

As a result, he had barely taken office and hadn't even settled in when Ren Jiu came knocking on his door. It would be a lie to say he wasn't furious.

"Chicken? What is that?!" Ren Jiu didn't waste any words, slashed down the henchmen blocking his way with a few strokes, and rushed to the chicken.

Chicken Eyes' strength was inferior to Ren Jiu's before, not to mention that Ren Jiu had already received two initiations. Chicken Eyes was defeated by Ren Jiu in just one move.

Chen Guilin and Lao Shuming were also surprised by their boss's strength. In their memory, Ren Jiu was a decent fighter, but at most he could only take on two or three short mules by himself, and he was far from being as formidable as he was now.

After Chicken Eyes was chopped off, his underlings lost all will to resist. In less than a few hours, Ren Jiu completely conquered Hong Ye's territory and unified the western district of Taipei.

After taking over the western district, Ren Jiu handed over the remaining details to Chen Guilin and Lao Shuming.

Two days later, Rat Ming, who had finished consolidating Master Hong's territory, came to report to him.

"Boss, we've finished clearing out Hong's territory. We got a total of 20 million in cash from him." Rat Ming said, holding the ledger. "This time, we deployed 500 men, each paid 3,000 per appearance. Adding in medical expenses, resettlement fees, and other costs incurred after the battle, the total expenditure is 4.23 million..."

Gang wars are all about money. Gang leaders not only have to pay their underlings appearance fees, but also cover their medical expenses if they get injured. If someone is killed or the gang leader is killed, the gang leader also has to cover the underlings' resettlement expenses, escape expenses, funeral expenses, and so on.

If a big shot doesn't have money, he can't even afford to fight a war.

Although this expenditure amounted to more than four million, with the twenty million obtained from Master Hong as a safety net, there is still a considerable surplus.

Moreover, besides the money, he now also controls the territory of those streets belonging to Master Hong, which is the biggest gain.

"How's the recruitment going?" Ren Jiuchong asked Lao Shuming.

He originally had 500 men under his command, but many were lost in the battle. With his current manpower, he simply couldn't control the territory that had doubled in size. So he had Lao Shuming recruit men to manage the territory early on.

"Recruiting has already begun, and we've recruited two to three hundred people so far!" Mouse Ming replied.

"When I asked you to recruit people before, did you have any recommendations for capable individuals?" Ren Jiu asked again.

He currently only has two leaders under his command, Chen Guilin and Laoshuming, and not many people he can use. Laoshuming is a novice and not good at fighting. Chen Guilin is the only one who can fight, so he wants to take this opportunity to recruit some martial arts experts to expand his strength.

"There's a white-haired scoundrel in the West District. He's a bit crazy, but he's pretty ruthless when it comes to killing people. I've been in contact with him recently, and he's interested in joining us!"

Upon hearing the name "White-Haired Ah Huai," Ren Jiu immediately thought of the character from the movie "Gatao 2" he had watched in his previous life. After a moment's thought, he said, "Okay, bring this Ah Huai here this afternoon so I can meet him..."

Chapter Eight: Liu Jian, Deputy Director Gao (First Update)

"Oh!"

"Bang bang!"

On the boxing ring, Ren Jiu unleashed a barrage of punches, elbows, knees, and kicks upon Chen Guilin, like a storm.

Muay Thai is known as the "Eight-Arm Boxing" style, as its attacks, once launched, are like waves that come one after another without stopping.

Although Chen Guilin was also a Red Pole level expert, his techniques were all unorthodox, learned through street combat. He would have no problem against ordinary people, but against Ren Jiu, who had been given more than ten years of Muay Thai experience, he was completely overwhelmed and couldn't even lift his head.

He only survived because of his strong physique and the resilience he developed through street training; otherwise, he would have been beaten down long ago.

"Big guy!"

While the two were sparring, Mouse Ming brought Ah Huai to the boxing gym.

When Ren Jiu saw him arrive, he stopped sparring and said to Chen Guilin, "Let's stop here for today. You need to focus on training your punching speed later. Just focusing on defense won't work!"

"Understood, boss!" Chen Guilin nodded earnestly.

Today's sparring session allowed him to experience Ren Jiu's strength and also made him realize many of his own shortcomings. Even if Ren Jiu hadn't reminded him, he would have practiced more later.

After Ren Jiu finished speaking to him, he turned to look at Lao Shuming and the other man, "You take the guests to the reception room and wait for me. I'll take a shower and then come over!"

"Okay, boss!"

Less than five minutes after the two sat down in the living room, Ren Jiu, who had just finished showering, pushed open the door and walked in.
