Chapter 234

It was merely missing a part or two.

As long as it didn't hinder their movement, they would swarm toward you like unkillable cockroaches.

How could the Organization members standing on the sidelines pass up such a perfect opportunity for a sneak attack?

While the murderers were attacking Hoshino Ki,

they all launched their own offensives.

Quite a few more murderers were wiped out.

Hoshino Ki stood where he was, calm and composed,

showing that there was no need to fear such a minor scene.

It was with this demeanor that he became the group's spiritual pillar.

With Hoshino Ki's help, everyone tapped into their previously unmined potential.

Between attacks, Xiang Fei looked solemnly at Hoshino Ki.

Although the two had never spoken,

Hoshino Ki's status in his heart had been elevated infinitely.

He had originally thought Hoshino Ki was just an arrogant, conceited young man

who had gone to the enemy's base alone without communicating with anyone.

But he hadn't expected it was to clear a path for them.

Coupled with his timely rescue just now,

no matter how you looked at it, Hoshino Ki was a powerhouse.

Very good!

Hoshino Ki’s goal had been achieved.

His purpose in doing this was to make the Organization members feel trust toward him.

Not only did he reveal his own strength,

but he also displayed a posture of loyal support to everyone.

This avoided suspicion from the group and also allowed him to rack up some reputation.

Such methods

could ensure that Hoshino Ki climbed the ranks faster in a short period

and allow him to gain more benefits.

"Puchi!"

The sound of a sickle cutting into flesh.

Accompanied by the fall of the last murderer,

this battle had finally come to an end!

"Ahhhhh! It's finally over!"

"My bullets just ran out!"

The Organization members all let out a sigh of relief, collapsing onto the ground in exhaustion.

Now that the enemies were all annihilated,

they could finally take a short rest!

"Louis! You! Are very strong!"

"I must thank you for your timely rescue this time!"

Xiang Fei, resting against a rock, praised Hoshino Ki from the bottom of his heart.

He raised his arm to wipe the sweat from his forehead,

then gave Hoshino Ki a thumbs up.

Hoshino Ki stretched his stiff neck.

Having finished the mission so quickly,

he hadn't even finished his warm-up exercises.

"You're welcome!"

Hoshino Ki looked at Xiang Fei indifferently and replied.

Xiang Fei looked down at his own hands,

his face full of disbelief:

"We... actually survived..."

He stared blankly at the bloody gashes covering his hands,

unable to stop them from trembling.

He had come with the determination to die,

never expecting to stubbornly survive until now.

The others also had the look of people reborn.

"Hahaha! We really did it! We can go home!"

A young man jumped up, laughing wildly.

"Stop laughing for a second, we only took out the murderers nearby!"

"We haven't even entered the enemy's base yet!"

One of them reminded him with a grave tone.

"......"

Hearing this,

the group was once again filled with gloom!

That’s right, it had already been this difficult just fighting on the outside.

Was there any way to survive if they went inside?

Their original group, excluding Hoshino Ki and Chianti, had numbered ten.

Only five were left alive now.

Moreover, the bullets they were carrying were all gone,

and their physical strength and energy were nearly depleted.

What was the point of fighting anymore?

They might as well just go in and die.

"I've already been inside!"

Hoshino Ki said indifferently, leaning against a rock nearby.

"What?!"

"What's the situation inside?"

Everyone crowded around Hoshino Ki.

They clearly knew nothing about the situation inside.

Isn't this perfect?

It saved him the trouble of calling Hoshino Ai out to act.

Truly effortless and efficient!

"There's nothing special going on!"

"The Boss and the General have already been killed by me."

Everyone gasped in shock:

"What?"

"So fast?"

"That's too awesome!"

"That's great!"

If the Hoshino Ki in front of them were just an ordinary person,

they would never have believed what he said.

But after witnessing Hoshino Ki's strength with their own eyes,

they all couldn't help but develop trust in him.

This didn't need any reason.

Because Hoshino Ki had shown them his strength while also saving their lives.

Whether they had seen him kill the Boss and the General with their own eyes

didn't really matter to them anymore.

After all, they didn't actually want to enter the enemy's base,

because they didn't want their rekindled hope of survival to be shattered once again.

This is human nature!

In the mist,

Hoshino Ki carried two blood-stained cloth bags.

One didn't need to guess to know that the bags contained the heads of the enemy Boss and General.

To eliminate any doubts they might have about him,

Hoshino Ki placed the two heads directly in front of them.

Even though the group hadn't questioned his strength for a second...

Hoshino Ki still adhered to the principle of "better safe than sorry" and displayed his "merit" to everyone!

Seeing the two heads in Hoshino Ki's hands, the group couldn't help but take a step back,

their faces displaying looks of horror and shock.

Now, they felt nothing but deep respect and awe for Hoshino Ki.

Plus, Hoshino Ki's gaze was too cold,

like the soul-reaping, pitch-black eyes of the Grim Reaper.

Staring at someone tightly was enough to bring a suffocating sense of impending death.

This feeling was like:

You all better take a good look!

See clearly!

The enemy's heads are right here in front of you.

How could you still have the guts to question my strength?!

Dare to question it, and I'll take your life right now.

Because the group was following right behind him,

........ .... 0

he had no way to put the heads into his space.

"Big Brother!"

Just as Hoshino Ki was walking leisurely,

a neat and uniform shout came from behind him.

Hoshino Ki's pace paused slightly.

He turned around to look at the five people behind him.

"You saved our lives; from now on, we will follow your every command!"

The five-man squad, led by Xiang Fei, bowed in unison to Hoshino Ki.

"Please accept us!"

The five shouted in unison.

Such a shout in the originally silent forest

directly startled the animals that were dozing and resting in the forest.

After being inexplicably frightened, they all scattered and fled.

Indeed, with Hoshino Ki's current A-rank status,

he was fully qualified to recruit talent from the Organization under his command.

Just like Gin,

who was also an A-rank member of the Organization,

and had talented subordinates emerging one after another.

Although not many of them were loyal,

at the very least, he had the appearance of a leader.

Hoshino Ki had just been promoted to an A-rank Organization member;

it wouldn't make sense not to recruit a few underlings!

Moreover, the Organization members present were able to survive until now,

which was indeed inseparable from their own strength!

Who doesn't like strong subordinates?

Hoshino Ki nodded slightly:

"Good!"

He showed no hesitation toward their request.

Since he was already acting as a boss, being too humble would be a bit fake!

"!!!"

The five were clearly a bit dazed.

They all looked up at Hoshino Ki uncertainly,

their eyes revealing a trace of disbelief!

They had thought that wanting to be Hoshino Ki's subordinates would require going through some cruel test,

but they hadn't expected happiness to come so suddenly!

"Thank you, Boss!"

They were overjoyed,

their faces all showing expressions of delight.

Now that they had won a complete victory,

not only had they completed the mission without dying in vain,

but they had also recognized such a powerful Hoshino Ki as their Big Brother.

It would be a lie to say they weren't happy!

Including Hoshino Ki and Chianti, their Organization group now totaled seven people.

After some discussion,

Hoshino Ki took the lead as the boss, walking in front,

while the others followed behind him at a steady pace.

"Hey, Chianti, do you want to consider changing bosses!?"

"What do you think of our boss?"

Xiang Fei whispered to Chianti.

Having just joined Hoshino Ki's command, he was already eager to recruit talent for the team.

It could only be said that this person had some loyalty in him.

"Me? I'd better not..."

Chianti carried her sniper rifle,

and after taking a deep look at Hoshino Ki's back, she shook her head silently.

It was well known in the Organization that Gin hated traitors.

Abandoning one's own boss to defect to a more powerful backer?

This was a form of betrayal.

One could think about such thoughts of defection,

but when it came to actually doing it, one needed to think twice before acting!

After all, mixing in the Organization required a certain level of intelligence and emotional quotient.
