Chapter 78: Plotting
....
Cashew looked weirdly at the scene in front of her while Orilin and Luini don\'t seem to care, the scene of their boss casually resting her head on a handsome young man sitting next to her with her eyes closed.
The young man seems to be caressing her hair with one hand and stroking his earring using his left hand with a thoughtful expression though his eyes are also closed.
Stated Yasuo after a while, "Anyway, I\'m the new Heil-Ly family\'s benefactor, I\'ll be supporting the family but there is no need for Tserriednich to know that for now, in fact, he shouldn\'t know that, just use his support and mine to take over the other families..."
Morena opened her eyes saying.
"We\'ll start by taking over the Cha-R family and the Xi-Yu family\'s business and we won\'t need to use any force, something will happen today that might start a war between the Cha-R and the Xi-Yu. We just need to light the fire to make sure the war happens/"
A gleam of light appeared in her eyes as she continued saying, "Luini, you will be responsible for a little bit of a forceful takeover, start by expanding our territory.
If Nen users got in the way then try to bring them alive but you don\'t need to go easy on them, if not then just kill.
Also, take some of the underlines to make sure everything is well and you can take all the other Nen users."
She then turned her head looking at Orilin, "I appoint you as the underboss, You\'ll be responsible for all the funds we have.
Once you notice the shares of the two families\' businesses falling, start buying them. You have more experience in this than me so you should know when the time is right,"
"Cashew, you\'ll mainly be responsible for spreading the news about anything that poses negative consequences for the other families and anything positive to us, you can use as many henchmen as needed.
Also, you have the choice to be creative and act on your own only for the benefit of the family, you can use deception, massacre, or anything to bring the two families down.
But you have to send me what you\'re planning at all times, the same applies for all of you."
"The operation will start four days from now, you can only start the overall preparation in 24 hours\' time but you can prepare on your own.
We don\'t want them to know of our movement and we certainly don\'t want them to know we know the incident will happen before it did. Any questions?"
The three looked stunned hearing the long speech, something they expected will happen but not this soon.
It took them a while to comprehend all the information given as a bright creepy smile surfaced on Luini\'s face while the other two looked thoughtful with a bright light in Cashew\'s eyes, the latter asked, "The incident that will happen, what is it?"
Morena was about to answer only to notice Yasuo opening his eyes, she sent him a questioning look with him nodding to her which brought a small smile to her face as she said, "It has already happened!"
....
A few minutes ago, around the territory of the Xi-Yu family west of the capital city, several people could be seen filling a truck with some kind of goods and there seems to be a few more close to them with guns in their hands watching around for any intruders though the area is quite isolated yet they didn\'t let their guard down one bit.
They continued doing so until... The sound of gun firing sounded repeatedly as a few of the guards fell to the ground with the others taking cover and started exchanging fire with the uninvited guests.
Gunshots sounded for a while with casualties on both sides leaving only a few people on the scene.
And this is when a calculated shot was fired with the bullet heading towards one of the people taking cover by the truck hitting his left shoulder.
He fell to the ground not making any sound, he is a new high-ranking member of the Xi-Yu family and while he hasn\'t learned Nen yet he learned to ignore this kind of pain to a certain extent so he shut his mouth tightly pretending to be dead.
He noticed that everyone on the scene is dead except one of the enemies who is walking towards the truck, the truck that has important goods, soo important that he knows the boss will kill him if he failed, that\'s if he survived this situation.
The masked man seems to be quite cautious as he walked slowly while keeping his gun aimed in case of anyone else appearing, he was about to make a phone call possibly calling for backup, and the high ranking member knew he couldn\'t allow that as he was about to move to grab the gun by him.
But the masked man seems to notice as he pointed his gun at him eliminating any hope he has for survival.
The masked man pulled the trigger... Yet no gunshot was heard... No more bullets which mean mistakes were made, a mistake the mafia family member made use of as he grabbed the gun and fired.
The man started heavily breathing as the pain and the shock of the incident overwhelmed him, he looked at the blood flowing on the ground around him, the blood of his allies and the enemies.
Enemies he doesn\'t know but he didn\'t check the bodies, instead, the first thing he did is calling for backup and letting the boss know then he hid in an obscure spot while keeping an eye on the truck, only then did he start tending the wound on his shoulder.
And only then did Yasuo retract all of the Aerothreads he has all around and the ones he used to control the masked attackers.
Only an hour or so later, a piece of stunning news spread through the mafia community, several of the Cha-Ra family members attacked a shipment of the Xi-Yu family killing most of the guards and almost killing a high ranking member for what is believed to be an operation for stealing an important cargo from the family.
"It\'s not working huh?" Remarked Yasuo looking at Morena who has just absorbed the magical beast Kiriko\'s blood.
She shook her head, "No, I don\'t think I can, the only result is a little increase in my Aura pool. Even if I use my ability on more of such beasts, it\'s unlikely I\'ll gain their shape-shifting ability... It\'s just a feeling I have..."
"Hmm, Perhaps its ability is also related to genetics or something more... To take such abilities, you will probably have to either add more conditions to your ability or just become stronger.
The fewer conditions there are on your ability the better so don\'t ever do that." Yasuo then looked at the dry body of the bluebird on the table.
\'Even after all of the experiments, it produced no results just a little bit stronger bird, and I noticed no change even after Morena canceled her ability.
In fact, it hardly moved since it can\'t use Ten so its Aura kept flowing away and I tried quite a lot of \'dangerous\' tests on it using my Vision Eye ability yet none showed anything interesting.
But perhaps if there is someone who can control animals consciously, will the controller be able to manipulate the animal\'s Aura? and will the person be able to create an ability for the animal?\'
Yasuo shook his head, it\'s not that important to him now so he stopped thinking about it any further, for now... Then Yasuo asked casually, "The operation is not going how you\'d like it to be?"
Morena nodded as they started walking out of the basement, "But it\'s not something I didn\'t expect.
Hinrigh Biganduffno the underboss of the Xi-Yu is quite cunning, I think he is suspecting the incident is the doing of a Nen user so it didn\'t go as far as an all-out war but they still requested compensation from the Cha-R family which damaged the family severely.
So across the last week when you were away we took the chance to expand quite quickly at the expense of the Cha-R family,"
Yasuo nodded, "And they still didn\'t attack the Heil-Ly family, they\'re still unsure huh."
Morena said, "The only reason they didn\'t attack the family before is because of the former boss\'s ability, its quite destructive so if they were to fail at killing him and he targeted their members then it will just be a silent massacre, the ability is quite dangerous even for Nen users and Is the ability I have right now but they don\'t know that.
The only thing stopping them from attacking after I became the boss is how I took over the position, that\'s a huge variable they can\'t dismiss."
