Fuji, in perfect unison, slowly retreated.

He knew his good friend's capabilities, so he wasn't worried about the bad guys inside. He was only afraid of holding his brother back.

Matt put his hand on the doorknob, about to open the door.

The door suddenly opened.

Matt was shocked and immediately withdrew his hand, stepping back and warily watching the person inside the door.

He hadn't even sensed anyone behind the door.

"Don't make a fuss, Matt Murdoch."

The person inside the door was a man wearing a black leather uniform and with waist-length silver hair.

He glanced at Matt, then looked at Foxy, his brow furrowing. "We need to talk to Mark. You'd better stay out of the way; it won't do you any good."

After saying that, as if worried about being misunderstood, he added, "Of course, we're not here to cause trouble."

Upon hearing this, Fuji looked at Matt.

Matt hesitated for a moment, then nodded to him.

"I'm right across the street. If anything happens, I'll call the police immediately," Fujie instructed before leaving.

The silver-haired man then moved aside to make way for the gate.

Inside, Xanx sat behind the desk with his legs crossed and placed on the table.

Behind him, four members of the Balian forces stood beside him.

"What do you want with me?"

Mark walked into the room and asked the question directly.

“We are the Varia, the Vongola Family's assassination squad, and I am their leader, Xanx.” After introducing himself, Xanx said, “You don't need to introduce yourself. We know you well, Daredevil.”

Upon hearing this, Matt immediately tensed up.

But on the surface, he put on a bewildered and amused look, "You're saying I'm Daredevil? Are you kidding me! I'm blind, how could I be Daredevil?"

Daredevil is blind.

Xanx raised his right hand, holding a pistol with an X symbol on the grip.

He aimed at Matt and grinned, "You're not going to make me play some boring test or something, are you?"

Matt fell silent.

He could tell from their heartbeats that they weren't lying.

His identity had indeed been exposed.

After a moment of silence, he acquiesced and asked, "...What exactly do you want?"

"That's right."

Xanx holstered his gun and smiled, "We need your help."

"What kind of help?"

“Recently, there have been assassinations targeting members of our family. I need you to help me find them.”

"it is good."

Matt agreed without hesitation.

This surprised Xanx and the rest of the Balian.

"Don't overthink it, I'm looking for them too!"

Matt gritted his teeth and said, "My girlfriend has been kidnapped and brainwashed. I want you to promise me that you will help me wake her up."

"Kid, do you know who you're talking to?"

Bell twirled the throwing knife in his hand and sneered, "You have no right to bargain here."

"No, I agreed to it."

Xanx said, "I can't guarantee I can awaken her memory, but I can help you find her."

"This is enough. I still trust the reputation of the Vongola family."

"Did Sawada Tsunayoshi's decision bring any benefits?"

Xanx clicked his tongue in annoyance, but didn't say anything more.

……

Zhongcheng Company.

The underground dragon cave.

The five fingers of the Hand Society are holding a meeting.

Alexandra said, "One group from last night's operation hasn't returned."

"It seems the Vongola has become aware of this and increased their defenses," the thief said casually, while tidying his nails. "However, this was all expected. You didn't think you could defeat the Vongola so easily, did you?"

"of course not."

Alexandra replied in a deep voice.

"By attacking the Vongola's properties outside, we not only damage their reputation but also make them strengthen their protection of properties in various regions."

This would leave the headquarters vulnerable.

We then seized the opportunity to storm their headquarters and take their leader's head.

As the current rulers of New York's underworld, the Vongola family has countless businesses outside the city, and naturally, there are far more than just the initial two hundred or so members.

The expansion of manpower to various regions left them unsure where to begin.

Of course, a direct attack on headquarters would be the most effective.

Even with their immortality and the powerful physique of demons, they didn't foolishly launch a direct attack on the enemy's strongest fortress.

Instead, they adopted a strategy of luring the tiger away from the mountain.

Their plan was to relocate at least a few of the Vongola Family's guardians.

Not all of them, but at least three or so will be transferred.

“But so far, there has been no sign of the Vongola’s guardians being mobilized,” Shin said.

“It’s possible they saw through our intentions, or it’s possible the losses to our assets weren’t enough to provoke the Guardians,” Madam Gao speculated. “But none of that matters. Right now, the enemy is in the open while we are in the dark; the initiative is in our hands. They will make their move sooner or later.”

"That's right."

Sowanda laughed, "Now we just need to mine the dragon bones while attacking the Vongola's surrounding industries and wait for the right opportunity. No matter what, we are invincible."

Although they already possess immortality and no longer need the elixir of life to sustain them, the power contained within the dragon bones should not be underestimated.

The longer it drags on, the stronger they become.

As for the possibility of being discovered and confronted...

This is impossible.

The ninjas who go out on missions are all highly trained assassins who have undergone rigorous training since childhood; their minds are solely focused on commands. Even if they fail in their missions and are captured, their information cannot be exposed.

Madam Gao laughed and said, "With the addition of our newly trained Black Void, failure is simply impossible."

"That's right."

Alexandra nodded slightly and smiled with satisfaction: "We are already in an invincible position; we are just waiting for the right moment to succeed."

Cheers, and best of luck!

"Good luck!" x4

……

at the same time.

The rooftop opposite the Zhongcheng Company building.

Xanx stepped onto the balcony and looked across. "Is this the place?"

"They are still discussing attacking you."

Matt, already dressed in his battle suit, listened intently as he said, "It's located about three thousand meters underground in this building."

"So deep?"

Squalo exclaimed in surprise.

Keep in mind that Mount Everest is only a little over 8800 meters high, this is almost half the height of Mount Everest.

"There are still many people digging underground. I heard things like 'dragon bone mining,' but I don't know what's going on."

"Boss, we've found out."

Levy, holding his notebook, said, "Midtown United was originally a company owned by Kingpin. But after his death, it was acquired by another company. We thought it was just a normal business acquisition, so we didn't investigate further."

"None of these matters."

Xanx grinned and said, "They'll all turn to dust anyway."

Upon hearing this, Bell seemed to remember something, excitedly licking his throwing knife, and asked, "Should we just charge in?"

“While it’s not impossible to do this, if we storm in during the day, the police will arrive quickly. Also, being so deep underground, the passageways would definitely be deep shafts or elevators, making it easy to cut off our escape route. We need to be prepared.”

"so what?"

"At midnight, send them to their final resting place!"

"learn!"

……

Soon, midnight arrived.

Xanx and others arrived as scheduled.

Xanx stood in the center, while the others stood on either side. There was no plan for cover, and they walked side by side toward the Central City Company building.

Daredevil, standing in the distance, was speechless.
