World Order System: The Mafia
Nails and Tarynx

Antony and Ted Bowie leave Noah lying on the floor unconscious, while they talk.

"I understand. So, your master asked me to buy the Fargo family's belongings and sell them your pepper, did you?"

Old Ted nodded. "Yes, that's the plan. Are you interested?"

Antony Reyes stroked his chin looking thoughtful, but he soon shook his head.

"No, I don't seem interested in this game."

Ted Bowie took a deep breath and took it off. As he had expected earlier, this man in front of him, open up a person easily.

However, among all the Networks in Silverstone, if there was anything he could trust, it was of course this person.

Antony Reyes was his commander when he was still a Marine, in contrast to Ted Bowie who started his network with the Sanders family, Antony built his own network.

Countless times did his former commander try to pull him from the Sanders family to break into his family's Network.

For Ted Bowie, however, loyalty was a dead price and could no longer be bargained for. Old Ted refuses Antony Reyes' request when the Sanders family network is destroyed.

"Alright, Antonio. I don't think there's anything I can do if you've said that, right?"

Antony Reyes nodded and immediately shook his head. "You know I'll help you personally. But if the network problem, every family has principles. You're one of the people I'm sure holds to that principle."

Ted Bowie shrugged his shoulders. "Well, you're right. Sorry for wasting your time."

Just as Ted Bowie was about to stand up, Antony suddenly held him back. When he brought up the matter of principle, he felt that something was wrong here.

"Ted, briefly. ... You always refused to join me. But, you want to join the new network. Of course I know that you guys have a grudge against the Fargo family, but I know you're not that simple."

Ted Bowie nodded. "Yes, I have my own reasons."

Ted Bowie's reply was deeply unsatisfying. "I can help you destroy Fargo if you want, but now you're working for a coward who's hiding in the dark, and proudly calls himself The Ghost. It's so absurd."

Just then Old Ted's face changed and he stared at Antony Reyes sharply. Things he'd never done before.

"How can you call the only person who can make you take a few steps back in the fight, a coward?"

Antony's eyes were wide. "Thus ... She ... This child ... Yang ... "

Although the words of his former commander were very messy, Ted Bowie could immediately understand what he was trying to convey.

"Yes, he's the one ... "

Hearing that, Antony Reyes lost his words. In fact, because of the potential of the young man, had crossed his head so that Ted Bowie would give Noah to his Network.

However, who would have thought that the young man was now followed by this former member.

"The young man did not call himself the Ghost, but it was the people who called him that. And ... You heard for yourself, he didn't ask for your help but he asked you to work for him, is that still what you can say about the actions of a coward?"

"No, no. That cannot be said to be cowardly at all. That ... he is very ... "

Just then, a proud smile was engraved on Old Ted's face.

"Antonio, you have a chance to kill him now. Otherwise, you'd know how he's going to be in the future, wouldn't you?"

Antony Reyes' head was instantly shrouded in turmoil. He certainly understood what Ted Bowie meant.

Antony Reyes seemed to think hard trying to consider something to say to Ted Bowie, in response.

However, Ted Bowie was standing and walking to the spot where Noah was lying.

Still unable to say anything, Ted Bowie returned to his voice.

As Ted Bowie said that, Antony Reyes immediately stood up and pointed at Ted Bowie with a face of wrath. At that time, he could not find the right words to say.

"Noah, in the future, will be the ruler. But he's not like us. He wouldn't be satisfied at Silverstone alone. We, together with the World Order will deliver it to the highest peak. You can go with him or, you're gonna destroy what we're gonna do to the Fargo family."

"VOLUME BOWIE ... YOU THREATENED ME?! ... "

Old Ted simply smiled as he shook his head.

"You know this isn't a threat. I'm a man of great respect to you, and you know what I'm saying is a warning."

After saying that, Old Ted lifted Noah's body, and walked away leaving Antony Reyes in a state of silence.

As he stepped out, he looked at Noah's face with pride. At that moment, he muttered a sentence full of confidence.

"Good work, Boss ... You just made one of the great powers of this city, will bow to you, in the future."

*****

The thing Alice was worried about, actually happened.

The woman, in a panic, found Noah lying on the sofa with a swollen face and injured eyes. Of course, it was still in an unconscious state.

From the dried blood marks that were on the corner of her mouth, Alice clearly understood what had just happened.

"Old Ted, I brought you to look after him. Then why did you let someone hit him? And ... Why do you look okay?!"

Alice cried hysterically to her father's best friend, of course Old Ted would not argue with this panicked girl. Only, the smile did not disappear from his face.

"Alice, sometimes there's a time when Noah shows who he is. And today, he just did."

Alice turned to Old Ted and asked in surprise. "What do you mean? .. Why do you keep smiling?"

Old Ted stood up and looked at Noah once more, before saying.

"Sometimes, in order to conquer an opponent, a King will show a bit of his fingernails and fangs. And Noah just did it."

Alice, who felt Old Ted's explanation convoluted, became frustrated.

"Old Ted's. Just tell me, what really happened to Noah?!"

"He just asked the Reyes family Network, to work for him."

"What?! ... So, she...?"

Ted Bowie nodded.

"Yes, he succeeded. Of course, as it should be. And ... isn't that why we follow him?"

At that moment Alice closed her mouth so surprised. He knows exactly who Antony Reyes is and his network.

If what Old Ted said was true, then it was obvious. The World Order really had a chance to dominate Silverstone.

However, their conversation was suddenly cut off by Noah's voice.

"Buch ... The old man's punch, was really terrible ... !"

The two saw Noah had just woken up, grimacing his temple which was still slightly bleeding.

"Noah, just a minute .. I'll clean your wounds!"
