Luke glanced at him and raised his middle finger.
"Please rest assured, you are all guests invited by the boss, we will not do anything to you."
The Punisher looked at the sergeant sitting in the passenger seat and suddenly said, "You set up a military base like this here, are you trying to rule Hell's Kitchen?"
The sergeant said calmly, "That depends on what the boss wants."
They didn't deny it, and the Punisher frowned deeply.
Soon, several people stopped in front of a building and met Dane in the conference room under the guidance of a cold-looking lady.
Contrary to everyone's expectations, the other party was unexpectedly young.
"You're not looking well, Mr. Murdoch."
"Who is Murdoch?" Luke asked subconsciously.
Daredevil was wearing a mask, but his face under the mask was twitching a little. This guy didn't keep any secrets for him.
"Hell's Kitchen is in some trouble..." Matt could roughly guess that Dane had ambitions for Hell's Kitchen and was ready to persuade him to deal with Kingpin.
The strategy of driving the tiger to devour the wolf is very risky, but compared to Kingpin, he thinks that at least Dane is not openly involved in any black business, and perhaps the result given to him by Hell's Kitchen will not be too bad.
This was the solution he came up with after being stumped by Dane's question last time. He thought about it for a long time but it wasn't a solution.
If someone was going to take over Hell's Kitchen, at least it had to be someone who wasn't such a jerk.
He had been paying attention to Umbrella for a long time, and found that this company had almost no bad record, which was very rare in America.
"That's probably not a small problem," Dane said, calming the street heroes present. "Those people from the Hand defected from K'un-Lun.
The Madam Gao you fought, and the other four leaders, are old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years. Their strength and power are simply not comparable to those gangs you usually deal with."
"You actually know Kunlun!" Tiequan was a little shocked.
Dane glanced up and down at Iron Fist and smiled, "Of course I know, Danny Rand, it's a pity that the dragon power you inherited is a bit weak, otherwise you might be able to destroy the Hand yourself."
Chapter 808: Dragon Bone Secrets
This guy knows everything!
Iron Fist's face was tense. The fact that he had returned from studying martial arts in Kunlun was a secret and he had never told anyone about it. Even Luke and Daredevil were unaware of it, but this stranger knew it all.
How could this not make him panic?
"If you're talking about surprise, I'm the more surprised one. Besides teaching you martial arts, didn't those people from Kunlun tell you anything about the Hand?"
Daredevil understood something: "You seem to know a lot. Do you also know the Hand's purpose? What do they want to do?"
He originally thought that he could use the advantage of information asymmetry to persuade Dane, but since the other party knew everything about Hell's Kitchen, Matt simply stopped being mysterious and went straight to the point.
He vaguely realized that just as they had wanted to use each other at the beginning, the other party seemed to be thinking about how to use them.
"This incident dates back hundreds of years. Five traitors emerged from Kunlun. They possessed incredible powers, yet were unable to overcome aging."
Dane looked at Iron Fist and said, "The more powerful a person is, the more they fear death. That's why they set their sights on the dragon."
"Shou Lao..." Tie Quan said with a sullen face.
"That's right, Shou Lao, a big ancient lizard." Dane would never admit that the winged thing was a dragon, and the facts proved that it was not.
He continued to reveal the secret: "At that time, the power of the Divine Dragon had already been inherited by the then Iron Fist Wu Ao Shi. Therefore, the five traitors could not obtain the power of the Divine Dragon by defeating Shou Lao... Moreover, only one person in an era can obtain the power of the Divine Dragon, and there are five of them, so it is obviously not enough to share."
The Dragon Power of Kunlun is different from the Dragon Heart of Tarot. It symbolizes the power of rebirth. If it is in the hands of someone who knows the subject, it is indeed possible to achieve immortality.
But at the same time, the power of the dragon is also a kind of power with a huge gap between the upper and lower limits, which mainly depends on the strength of the power of the dragon nurtured by Shou Lao.
As everyone knows, only by killing Shou Lao can one gain the recognition of the power of the dragon and inherit this power.
However, the difficulty of killing it in its prime and killing it in the embryonic egg stage is completely different, and the power inherited is also worlds apart.
Every time Shou Lao is killed, he will be reborn and give birth to the power of the dragon again.
However, most Iron Fists were unable to kill Shou Lao in his prime, so most Iron Fists at the time chose to kill him when he was still underdeveloped.
For example, Danny Rand successfully challenged the enemy only five years after Shou Lao was reborn. Therefore, the dragon power he inherited was very weak. At the beginning, he had to rest for a long time before he could gather the energy again after throwing a punch.
The strongest iron fist in history belongs to a woman named Wu Fengji. Her dragon power can even suppress the power of the phoenix. She is also one of the very few white phoenixes who have conquered the power of the phoenix.
Legend has it that this tough woman finally flew into the universe with the power of the phoenix and her whereabouts are unknown.
"After Shou Lao was killed, it took ten years for him to be reborn again, so those five people couldn't get their hands on the dragon's power. However, they were eyeing another valuable item, the dragon's bone."
"As the body left behind after Shou Lao's death, dragon bones contain mysterious powers. Using them as medicine can also prolong life, but they need to be taken at regular intervals, otherwise you will continue to age."
The Punisher had a flash of inspiration: "So, what Midtown Circle Financial Company is hiding... is the dragon bone, right?"
Seeing Dane nod, he connected all the clues together.
Why did Kingpin, knowing Umbrella's power, still choose to cause trouble here despite the great disapproval?
Why did he go to great lengths to hunt Daredevil down after he knew he was going to investigate the Hand?
Why, with Jin Bing's status as a man who can do both good and evil, would he still humbly work for the Shuhe Society and be willing to do so?
In his impression, Jin Bing is a hero who will never be willing to be inferior to others, and even death cannot shake his ambition.
Now he understood that Jin Bing's goal was the dragon bones, he wanted eternal life!
Luke questioned this, "That's not right. The old woman who beat me looked very old. Dragon bones extend lifespans, so shouldn't they be able to regain their youth?"
"That's a good question." Dane nodded. "That has to do with what a certain Iron Fist did."
"At the end of the 19th century, Iron Fist was ordered by Kunlun to hunt down a traitor from the Order of the Mankind. He pursued him all the way to America. In the end, he fell into a trap and was outnumbered and defeated, but he did successfully use the power of the dragon to seal the dragon bone."
"The Hand's traitors have no way of breaking the seal. They can only construct a building on the sealed land of the dragon bone and wait for the day when the seal will automatically lift."
"The seal can actually be lifted automatically?" Luke exclaimed.
"Of course. Ren Tiequan is dead. Without the subsequent infusion of dragon power, time will eventually wear away the seal."
Dane smiled. "But Ren Tiequan calculated that even if the seal set by the Dragon Power were to disappear, it would be at least several hundred years from now. I think the five traitors of the Hand would have died of old age by then, so it wouldn't matter whether the seal existed or not."
"Let me guess. Something unexpected has happened, hasn't it?" The Punisher said sullenly. "The seal on the Dragon Bone Land has been lifted earlier than expected."
"Yes."
"what is the reason?"
"Because of the return of the modern Iron Fist." Dane looked at the bewildered Iron Fist. "The closer he gets to the sealed place, the more the dragon power of the same origin will converge on him. Do you feel that the dragon power in your body has become more active and easier to control recently?"
Tie Quan scratched his head awkwardly: "It seems...that's it..."
Luke turned to look at him, his eyes seeming a little incredulous: "So, you actually did all this?"
Tiequan was speechless. He felt that he was very wronged and he didn’t know whether this was a good thing or not.
Daredevil changed the subject: "Since you know everything, do you have any ideas about dragon bones?"
“As a scientist, it’s impossible to say I’m completely uninterested.”
Sure enough! Daredevil and Punisher thought to themselves, immortality, which human being can resist the temptation of immortality?
But they didn't know that Dane didn't actually care about the so-called "immortality" effect of dragon bones. It was just a life extension at most, not true immortality.
Once you use the dragon bone, your life will be restricted by it, and no one knows whether Shou Lao has done anything to the dragon bone.
That big lizard is no fun.
What he was interested in was the dragon bone material itself. Dragon bone is a very rare material even in the magical world. Presumably, many useful things can be extracted from it, right?
There is also the "Beast". He is not very interested in this demon that doesn't even have a name, but he can't allow the Hand to release it into the human world and pollute Hell's Kitchen.
As early as when the Black Widow Base was established, he had already regarded this place as Umbrella's territory. Demon? The farther away, the worse it is!
He looked back at the street heroes, his gaze sending a chill down their spines.
"Everything that needs to be answered has been answered. Now, let's talk about how to resolve this matter. You guys are all willing to pay the price to resolve this matter, right?"
Originally, Umbrella hadn't intended to drag them into this, but since they had come to him, he certainly couldn't let go of this opportunity to make some money.
Chapter 809 Realistic version of "Amaterasu"
Inside a huge conference room on the top floor of Midtown Circle Financial Company.
The five "fingers" of the Hand gathered together, with Alexandra, Madame Gao, Botu, Sowanda, and Murakami sitting separately.
Murakami was the first to fire: "Mrs. Gao, please explain why you let those people escape?"
Mrs. Gao glanced at him and said, "I've already explained it before. Someone who was very skilled with a gun came and rescued them."
"With your skills, how could you let them escape?" Murakami said aggressively.
Madam Gao narrowed her eyes, a hint of murderous intent emanating from them. "Oh? Anyway, that's the truth. What do you think?"
Although all five fingers defected from Kunlun, they have been keeping each other together for hundreds of years.
But even when there are no external enemies, intrigues will still occur.
Murakami said sinisterly, "I suspect that Madam Gao got something from Iron Fist and is unwilling to share it with us."
As soon as these words were spoken, the other fingers who were originally watching the fun also looked over.
Mrs. Gao's expression remained unchanged, but she was already cursing in her heart.
The Japanese are going too far!
"Everyone, I'm sure you all know what the modern Iron Fist is like. Such a weak little guy has almost no value..."
"That's not necessarily true." It was that bastard Murakami who spoke again. "It's precisely because he's the weakest Iron Fist of all time that it's easier for him to plot, isn't it?"
Mrs. Gao could no longer bear it and smashed the wooden tabletop in front of her into pieces with one palm: "Murakami, what on earth do you mean by this, you Japanese slave?"
Hearing the word "Japanese slaves," Murakami's defenses were broken, and he also stood up: "In view of your mistake, I think your share of dragon bones should be reduced or even cancelled next time!"
Mrs. Gao almost exploded with anger. My goodness, it’s not even time to divide the spoils yet, and this bastard wants to kick her out?
How could she let the other party succeed?
She smiled sinisterly: "Murakami, I remember you have a kid who's being raised at your Dongling branch home recently, right?"
Murakami's expression suddenly darkened: "How did you know?"
Madam Gao didn't answer. Instead, she said, "You say you are the same. Since everyone is pursuing immortality, then why do you need offspring? Isn't that just adding a weakness to yourself?"
This is a naked threat!
Murakami had a gloomy face and his mind was racing. The fact that he had a child was extremely confidential, and he didn't know how it had been leaked.
But he soon realized that there must be a traitor in his own family!
Unlike other members, Murakami had other descendants before he rebelled. His family had many branches, and one of them established an organization called "Snake Root" in Dongling, worshipping the "beast" as its main god.
Later, the five of them defected from Kunlun and came to Dongling. "Snake Root" was reorganized into "Shouhehui", but because of this, those branches of Murakami who were not close to him had the opportunity to switch to other leaders.
Among them, Mrs. Gao had many followers because of her origin in China. When they defected, China was still the center of the world that the whole world yearned for, so Mrs. Gao soon had the power to compete with Murakami.
After the dragon bones were sealed, the five fingers of the Hand all received more or less the "blessing" bestowed by the "beast". They used this power to train an almost immortal undead army.
At this time, the legion was lying in ambush in the central city circle, waiting for the enemy to come.
But the five people have different attitudes towards the "beast".
Among them, Murakami, as one of the founders of "Snake Root", is very keen on serving the "Beast", and the biggest goal of the "Beast" is to come to the world with Heikong as his flesh and blood.
It is hard to say that others have the same fanaticism as him, because the dragon bone was sealed by the iron fist, and they had no choice but to accept the power of the "beast", but no one was truly dedicated to serving this demon.
Now that there is hope of unsealing the dragon bone, the other four fingers except Murakami are inevitably becoming restless. In order to ensure that the "beast's" arrival plan can still be implemented smoothly, Murakami has to attack Mrs. Gao at this time.
He also wanted to use this to warn the other three people that before the dragon bone was truly unsealed, the "beast" could still control their life and death.
At this time, Alexandra finally spoke: "Alright, there's no need to discuss this matter any further. Now is not the time to engage in internal strife. Capturing those street heroes and killing them is what's most important right now."
The Hand doesn't care about the power of those street heroes. Except for the modern Iron Fist, they don't take anyone else seriously.
But they are worried that what is happening here will be noticed by S.H.I.E.L.D. or Umbrella, which may add variables.
Whether it is the dragon bones or the "beast", these are very important secrets. Once known by the two behemoths, the power of the Hand may not be able to stop them.
As an organization that has been rooted in Hell's Kitchen for many years, the Hand knows better than anyone how terrifying Umbrella is. That secret military base has the ability to wipe them off the map.
Although the five of them possess extraordinary abilities, they still have great awe for humanity's most advanced thermal weapons...
At the same time, Tess's quick reaction force had quietly approached the central city circle.
