Hot Blood: Dominate the World with Your Fists

Chapter 323: Obtaining the Dragon Slaying Sword, Past Events (Part )

At this time, Dongye Huanglong and his group came to a marginal area in the SWORD region.

Dongye Huanglong was accompanied on this trip by powerful men of various legendary levels and people of the five major levels. Dongye Huanglong did not intend to let the others know too much.

After a long journey, the group finally arrived at an area that looked like ruins.

Looking around, all you can see are abandoned houses and dilapidated unfinished buildings everywhere, as if this land had experienced a tragic catastrophe.

"Hey, Arairyu-chan, what is this thing you said that is powerful enough to take down the Kowloon Group?" The speaker was Murayama Yoshiki, and now he was the only one who would add sauce to Higashino Arairyu.

"Don't worry, we'll be there soon. You'll know then." Dongye Huanglong smiled evilly.

"By the way, why is there no one dealing with the corpses here? This is so unprofessional." ICE frowned as he looked at the shriveled corpses on the ground that attracted a few rats.

"Yeah, isn't this a bit too sloppy?" Jesse nodded in agreement.

Just as a few people were chatting, a hand suddenly stretched out from the alley ahead, waved at them, and then quickly retracted.

Dongye Huanglong and his group immediately walked towards the direction of the beckoning. The person who came was none other than Xixiang, the famous black policeman in the SWORD area!

The group followed Xixiang, moving back and forth in this dead-silent alley, and in just one minute they had already turned three corners.

"I say, are we playing a fun spy game?" Amemiya Masataka couldn't help but complain.

"Do you know why there is no one around? Because this place has been secretly cleaned up by the Kowloon Group. You can say that this is the territory of the Kowloon Group." Xixiang turned his head and responded.

"...We defeated the Kowloon Group head-on! Is there any need to be so cautious?" Suzuki Musashi felt that there was no need to be so cautious.

"It's different. The terror of the Kowloon Group does not lie in its mere force, or rather, force is the least noteworthy aspect of theirs. The most terrifying thing about them is that they have a large number of connections in the political, business, and even police circles. Without a strong enough reason, even the government cannot take action against them!" Saigo was helpless when he said this. He didn't expect that a gangster organization could actually infiltrate the political system.

"We're here!" Xixiang murmured softly, and then he slowly stopped in an inconspicuous and even somewhat dilapidated corner.

He reached out and gently pushed the small wooden door that looked just as ordinary. The door hinge made a slight creaking sound, as if telling of the vicissitudes of time and its oldness.

Then, Saigo walked into the house without hesitation, and his figure was instantly swallowed by the darkness.

Dongye Huanglong, who was standing not far away, saw this and his eyes flashed slightly. Without any hesitation, he followed Xixiang's steps and stepped in.

At the same time, Amber, Amamiya Zunlong and other companions exchanged glances with each other, nodded in understanding, and quickly followed.

The group of people entered one after another, passed through a narrow and dark passage, and soon arrived at a closed room.

The room looked rather shabby, with mottled and peeling walls, giving off a faint smell of decay.

In the middle of the room were several shabby sofas, some of whose cushions were worn out; next to them were several chairs with missing legs and a scratched conference table.

The most eye-catching thing is that there is a huge detailed map of the SWORD region hanging on the wall, on which the spheres of influence and important strongholds of different areas are marked with various colors.

At this time, there were already several people in the room sitting quietly on the worn sofas, seemingly waiting patiently for their arrival.

Upon closer inspection, these people were none other than Bouya Harumichi and his group who had briefly made a splash in the container war.

"Hey, you're here." Bouya Harumichi raised his hand and greeted.

"Ah, thank you for your hard work." Dongye Huanglong also raised his hand and greeted.

"I didn't expect you to make such a big deal, but overall, the mission was successfully completed." Jiuneng Longxin said coolly with his arms crossed.

"The things and people you want are here." Mido Ryuya pointed to several bundles of sacks full of things on the ground and a hooded man.

Dongye Huanglong stepped forward and lifted the hood of the man lying on the ground, revealing the face of an elderly man. He then opened the sack, pulled out a random document, and began to look through it.

"Hehehe! Hahaha! I am still the best in the end!" Dongye Huanglong laughed triumphantly after confirming the identity of the man and the contents of the sack.

"Wait a minute, can you explain to us what's going on?" Takiya Genji asked calmly.

"Well, this is a long story..." Saigo lit a cigarette and started to soar into the sky.

"In that case, then just cut to the chase!" The impatient Takamura Kyuujiu couldn't help but interrupt him.

"Ahem, okay, I'll tell you everything I know." Xixiang choked on the cigarette, but still picked up a dagger and nailed it to the map.

"The story begins a long time ago. Back then, even Amber wasn't even born yet!"

"Here, on the land we are standing on now, there is a pharmaceutical factory, and this pharmaceutical factory was created from the very beginning to accomplish a certain purpose!"

"One day, this pharmaceutical factory successfully developed a drug that was incredibly effective against a certain virus! This was a huge boon for some of the cabinet ministers, so they decided to invest heavily in mass-producing this drug."

"However, something unexpected happened! Although this drug can eliminate the virus, patients who take it will also experience very serious side effects! The typical symptoms of side effects are just like what happened to Smoky before!"

"But Smoky hasn't reached the late stage yet. In the late stage, you'd be a completely different person, which would mean there's no hope for him! And the time from infection to death is between six months and a year. Death is inevitable!"

"It can be said that this drug not only killed the virus, but also killed people. A lot of people died because of this at that time." Xixiang sighed when he said this. Obviously, this number must have been modified.

"This kind of thing can't be kept secret, right?" Amemiya Masaki raised his hand and asked.

"Haha, there were quite a few media outlets that reported on it at the time, but they all died soon after. Public opinion was completely replaced by the negative scandals about the artists!" Saigo said as he threw the empty cigarette on the ground and lit another one in his mouth.

"There's nothing strange about this. It's an old routine. Once some bad incident occurs, there will immediately be a dusty scandal to attract public attention." Dongye Huanglong interjected, leaning on a sofa.

"Hey! Stop interrupting me! I want to hear what happens next!" Bouya Harumichi said with some dissatisfaction, signaling others not to disturb Saigo from telling his story.

"The responsible persons have tried to save the situation, but even after spending a huge amount of money, this side effect cannot be completely avoided."

"As time went on, senior officials lost interest in the project and withdrew their investment. The pharmaceutical factory collapsed."

"But! The bad things only officially start from this moment!"
