Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

"Have you heard of the Punisher?" Luke became serious when it came to business.

"Of course, Hell's Kitchen Grim Reaper, the elusive superstar."

Jessica had indeed heard of it.

She knew about this person long before she debuted in Hell's Kitchen. This person specialized in causing trouble for gangsters. Compared to the Punisher's dozens of kills in a row, hers was just small fry.

"What's up with him?"

Luke told Jessica everything about the commotion the Punisher had caused, how he had saved the Punisher, and how the Punisher was now in some trouble with him.

Luke is not a pretentious person.

If possible, he will handle most things on his own.

However, the Punisher incident had become quite a big deal, and he happened to be there. He took a moment of weakness and saved the Punisher, which led to him getting caught up in the mess himself.

Luke wasn't afraid of being implicated, after all, he was quite confident in his abilities.

A gang of guns and weapons posed no threat to him.

But Luke was worried that his neighbors and friends would be implicated.

That's why I asked Jessica for help.

Of course, there was also a small personal motive hidden behind this, hoping to deepen the connection with Jessica through this incident.

Jessica didn't understand Luke's ulterior motives; she was very straightforward.

Jessica considered Luke a friend; otherwise, they wouldn't have exchanged phone numbers. He was just a small Hell's Kitchen gangster, nothing to Jessica these days.

"It's a minor issue. Wait for my message, I'll call you back in about ten minutes."

"Luke, Jessica?"

At night, Matthew, who had been playing all day, took Carrie back to the manor villa.

Then I received a message from the Information Department.

Jessica needs to mobilize New York's resources to get things done.

Matthew was a little surprised that Jessica had already connected with Luke Cage early in her career.

Matthew had originally planned to offer the Punisher, this outlaw, a small favor.

Coincidentally, Jessica might as well finish it too.

So Matthew took the opportunity to issue an order.

It's normal for Jessica to be able to mobilize resources.

Jessica is now a warrior in the Raven Legion.

After consolidating the assets and resources of Hydra and Maggrave, Matthew vigorously expanded the organization's peripheral members, and the number of those who joined has now exceeded 100,000.

The numbers may seem like a lot, but when spread globally, they actually come down to just that.

Bases around the world are actively recruiting personnel.

If screening and background checks weren't required, and if recruitment were truly liberalized, this number would likely be more than ten times higher.

Compared to a world-class giant organization like S.H.I.E.L.D., its membership is far fewer.

Regardless, Matthew has access to world-class resources.

As the highest-ranking armed forces under Matthew, they were just ordinary soldiers in the two battle groups, but to the entire organization, they were absolutely core high-ranking members.

Each member has their own unique code number, which represents the considerable authority they each possess.

Whether for personal reasons or on missions, they can mobilize a portion of resources and manpower.

Jessica is the same.

So Jessica's boasting about taking on Luke's responsibilities wasn't just bragging; at such a young age, she was already a true big shot.

Let alone a small gang in Hell's Kitchen, even a world-class oligarchic gang could be wiped out by Jessica if she mobilized her resources.

Matthew won't concern himself with that.

This is the rightful power and status they deserve. They are wholeheartedly loyal to him, follow him, and serve him even at the cost of their lives. Matthew should certainly reciprocate with corresponding benefits.

Whether it's money or power.

There must be a reward for every effort; this is the core principle set by Matthew as a leader.

Unscrupulous bosses won't go far.

Since Jessica was involved with the Punisher, Matthew simply stopped paying attention and continued living his slow-paced life.

Doesn't it make you uncomfortable to see Carrie happily chatting and laughing on the phone with Gwen?

.......

night.

The various gang leaders in Hell's Kitchen experienced the most shock of their lives.

Just as members of various gangs were frantically scavenging people in Hell's Kitchen, creating a lively scene, all the gangs, including Kingpin, received a message.

My personal cell phone received a message.

After clicking, there is a logo.

A black raven with outstretched wings, a drop of blood flowing from its belly, the design is incredibly lifelike.

Then, the message contained a warning.

The warning was simple: withdraw any actions taken against the punisher.

Additional information was also included.

The gang leaders initially sneered and remained indifferent, but when they opened the message, they discovered that it contained information about their various businesses, including illicit, gray, and overt operations.

It was so detailed that it drastically changed their expressions.

I felt a sense of horror.

This is just the beginning.

They then received a message from their trusted aides that several of their businesses had been hit.

These blows resulted in huge losses for them, even to the point of financial pain, but not enough to drive them mad.

This is clearly a warning.

This means that you only have one chance, and if you don't seize it, the next time will be a full-scale attack.

This warning from a force whose opponent they didn't even know evoked no anger in any of them, only coldness and fear.

To ordinary people, they are ruthless gangsters.

But compared to a force of that caliber, they are nothing more than ants.

Without any hesitation, the gang immediately recalled their men and canceled all operations.

As for the Punisher?

Let whoever wants to go find them; it's obvious that the Punisher is backed by an extremely mysterious but powerful organization.

We can't afford to mess with them, we absolutely can't afford to mess with them.

Even Kingpin, when he saw that logo, he already associated it with another group.

On the night of the Manhattan incident, when the demons invaded, he personally witnessed the group of people in red trench coats slaughtering the monsters right before his eyes.

His exceptional physical abilities gave him eyesight far beyond that of ordinary people, allowing him to see those ridiculously strong women, who had a badge-like logo on the shoulder of their red overcoat.

Although the women were moving too fast, he could still make out some details despite the blur.

In comparison, Kingpin was now fairly certain that the warning he received came from the mysterious and powerful legion that night.

Thinking back further, there were those two women who were like monsters when they found me.

Perhaps they were members of that group from Manhattan back then.

As a result, Kimbin backed down.

They even cursed the punisher in secret.

You should have said so earlier! If you had said you were connected to those monsters, I wouldn't have dared to lay a hand on you. That would have been suicide!

Kingpin did not hesitate to recall Bullseye and his gang of henchmen who were earning bounties and killing people along the way.

They even contacted other gang leaders in Hell's Kitchen one by one to issue warnings.

Give Kingpin some face and behave yourselves. If you drag my brothers into this, I'll send you all away one by one.

Kingpin's power is undeniable, adding another layer of mystery to this night.

Only one person was unwilling to accept this.

That was Finn, the head of the Irish mafia.

He didn't care about Kingpin or any mysterious forces; he only cared about one person: his son.

Having had his son killed by the Punisher, Finn ignored the so-called warnings and led his Irish men to continue searching for the Punisher.

Finn, sparing no expense, finally found a clue.

Luke Cage, the owner of Luke's Bar on 40th Street southwest of Hell's Kitchen, rescued the Punisher. Finn immediately gathered his followers and, without hesitation, brought all his firepower to the bar and surrounded it.

This place happens to be one of the core areas of the Irish mafia.

There is no need to set foot in the areas controlled by other gangs.

However, to Finn's utter surprise, just as he and his men surrounded the bar and were about to rush up to Luke's residence on the second floor...

Kingpin has arrived.

It wasn't just Kingpin; other gangs, Viper, Tracksuit, Hammerhead, Cerberus biker gang, and even the most mysterious ninja gang, the Hand, all came.

These leaders, along with a large number of men, surrounded Finn and his group.

That night, Luke's Bar became incredibly lively.

Chapter 195 Jessica Shocks the Entire Hell's Kitchen (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Finn and his Irish gangsters were surrounded.

Apart from Finn, everyone else was already drenched in sweat.

They had no idea what had happened.

Finn found it even more absurd.

This is the heart of his Irish gang; it's his territory.

As a result, Kingpin and his gang led a large force into his territory and surrounded them all.

In that instant, Finn, who had been blinded by the rage of revenge, also calmed down.

He scanned the people in front of him one by one, his gaze lingering briefly on the hot woman with a ninja mask at the front of the Hand group of ninjas before finally looking at Kingpin.

"I'm on my own turf, looking for the murderer who killed my son."

Finn calmly explained.

He looked directly at Kingpin.

He tried to use this to make Kingpin and his men retreat, even though he knew the chances of that happening were slim.

really.

Kingpin snorted coldly, his burly, stout body dressed in a white suit, holding a cane, the bar's colorful lights illuminating his bald head.
