Chapter 116: The Villain Savior

~11 min read 2,041 words

In the massive villa, figures were everywhere, clutching their stomachs and writhing in pain on the floor.

Bai Cangshu, accompanied by the two little black men, dragged these so-called gang members into the hall one by one.

Bai Cangshu stood by the fireplace and clapped his hands; the wailing at the scene quieted down.

The terrifying scene just now made these guys who called themselves the B45 Gang almost think that the guys from The Seven had arrived; no one could touch the corner of his clothes, his speed was terrifyingly fast, firearms could not aim at him, and instead, any contact with him resulted in the sound of bones breaking.

"Hey, scum, be grateful. I had to try very hard to control my strength just to keep you alive."

Bai Cangshu was not exaggerating; he saw the progress update on the 【Murderer】 Milestone and knew that his light push had ultimately cost that black driver his life, deeply understanding the result of using his current 17 points of strength on ordinary people.

Therefore, in this attack, he consciously used methods like breaking arms or thighs to make the opponents lose their ability to resist, rather than attacking areas that could lead to organ rupture.

The group of gang members lying on the ground could not understand Bai Cangshu's good intentions, but the two little black men standing behind him, George and Ans, were somewhat in agreement.

After all, they had seen with their own eyes the burly, ox-like Brute vomit blood and die from a light tap by him.

"What exactly do you want to do!"

"Damn it, we don't even know you!"

The man with the shattered shoulder was covered in tattoos and had a silver stud on his lip; this person was named Bobby, the boss of this B45 Gang.

Due to racial issues, wealth inequality, superpowers, and other factors, a large number of gangs had emerged in this society; the entire United States had over 30,000 gang organizations, with a total of over 1.4 million people as gang members.

This was a group of people consciously ignored by the mainstream value system.

They did not consider themselves a gang, believing their actions were just a hope to be remembered.

Of course, this was how these scum beautified themselves; a group of people with no jobs and no place to belong would mostly head toward the opposite of order, and Bai Cangshu decided to grasp this power in his own hands.

Bai Cangshu used his toe to lift the man's head, looking down with a cruel smile in his eyes.

"My name is Tao Baibai, and I am the man who will lead you scum to accomplish a great cause. Now that we've met, what is your answer?"

Bobby's fists moved; he could partially harden his body, a superpower that was quite practical both in bed and on the street.

But the guy in front of him was too fast; he couldn't react at all before his shoulder was shattered.

"A great cause? What a joke. What kind of great cause needs a group of guys like us?"

Bobby once had a decent future; his studies in high school were not bad, and as long as he could get a student loan, perhaps he could have gone to a decent university and worked hard to escape his class and community.

But reality is reality; a case of manslaughter caused by domestic violence made him completely say goodbye to that kind of future.

He knew very well that his group of people, with no education, no skills, and not even powerful superpowers, only having a bit of vulgar temper, could not possibly accomplish any great cause.

They were just a group of brothers living in their own neighborhood, not even willing to have bad blood with gangs from other neighborhoods.

Slap!

Bai Cangshu gave a light tap, and Bobby's face immediately swelled up.

"If there is enough scum, they can also block a river."

He reached out and grabbed Bobby's hair, lifting the sturdy white man up.

The pain of his scalp tearing made Bobby cry out, and the others also looked at Bai Cangshu.

Bai Cangshu looked at everyone and said word by word,

"From now on, I will lead you to win respect—everyone's respect."

His head was slightly raised, his eyelids lowered as he looked down at the crowd; these gang members took the word "respect" very seriously.

Often, the reason for those bloody conflicts was that one side felt they had not received respect.

They had no social status; the only dignity they had left was respect.

While Jie Bo and E Tong were operating in various ways trying to join the 【Black Noir Faction】, and Wu Xin was constantly stirring up trouble within the 【Vought Faction】 and The Seven, Bai Cangshu was leading a group of people constantly from one neighborhood to another.

One gang after another fell; these small gangs, generally numbering less than a hundred people, had no ability to resist.

And as more and more neighborhood gangs were defeated, the group of people including Bobby all realized the power of this "Tao Baibai," and...

The other party's ambition was clear—to unify the New York underground world!

When Bai Cangshu walked out of this slum neighborhood, more than two hundred people were already following behind him; almost no one in the group was without tattoos. Bobby and the two little black men, as the earliest to follow Bai Cangshu, had prominent status and walked at the very front.

This scale of numbers was enough to make others on the street panic; everyone felt the fear in those gazes.

Bobby walked in small steps to Bai Cangshu's side and said,

"Boss, if we want to continue to expand our scale, there are a few guys we cannot avoid."

"Akai of the Triad has about two hundred men under him and is a superpower user himself; he is very fast and once wiped out several gangs alone;"

"Leon Burton of the 【Latin Kings】 is said to be very close to Translucent of The Seven, and he is also very good at fighting; it is one of the largest gangs in New York, with over a thousand members, very brutal, and deals in drugs, smuggling, and arms trafficking;"

"Finally, there is a hero called 【Regenerator】, who is very troublesome; we all have to pay him protection money."

Bobby knew more about various news than the two little black men; although his shoulder injury hadn't healed and he couldn't fight, he had been promoted by Bai Cangshu and had more men under him than before.

It's just that he didn't understand why Bai Cangshu wanted him to open short video and live streaming accounts; could it be that many people would really like gang members like them?

Bai Cangshu held Bobby's phone, looking at Homelander's account on the social platform and the various news pushed by Vought International. He was now hiding in the shadows, and he knew that the remnants of 【9527】 were hiding inside Vought International, though their identities were not yet known.

Suddenly, he saw the promotion for The Seven; 【Translucent】, who should have been dead, was still appearing in his iconic pose.

Because 【Translucent】's body's carbon molecule structure could be controlled and adjusted by him at will, he could make himself invisible and could also make his body as hard as diamond at any time, ignoring shots from large-caliber sniper rifles.

When he attended shows, he usually wore a hat and gloves so that the audience could know his position through them.

But Starlight joining The Seven should be the story of the first season of The Boys, and this point in time was exactly when the members of The Boys, Butcher and Hughie, accidentally captured Translucent and eventually killed him by using a bomb in his anus.

He tapped the screen, guessing that either the plot had changed, or... this was likely where the person holding the 【Card】 was.

In the intelligence provided by 【Black Butler】, 【9527】 was a famous "Farming Team" in the East District.

In team contracts, there existed an extremely harsh type known as the 【Leader Contract】, which could also be called the 【Follower Contract】.

Unlike ordinary equal contracts, for this type of contract, when a team leader establishes a team, they need to meet specific conditions and pay a quite high price.

But in return, the team leader has complete control over the resources of the team members; not only can team members not attack or harm each other, but even leaving the team requires paying an extremely high price to the team leader.

!

At the very beginning, this was a contract signed only when Title-level Reincarnators chose to hire followers, because Title-level Reincarnators were extremely powerful and possessed resources far exceeding those of Common Reincarnators.

Therefore, it is not inappropriate for a Common Reincarnator to sign such a Contract to become an attendant or follower of the strong.

But the existence of Reincarnators always "finds another path," discovering more loopholes to gain more profit.

The 【Farming Team】, a classic setting in certain Infinite novels, has appeared once again.

Some Reincarnators pay a price to force weak Reincarnators to sign a Contract and join such teams during missions, thereby gaining the ability to control the other party's resources.

There are many team missions in mission worlds; once completed, everyone can receive rewards. Such teams use this mechanism to allow the team leader to obtain massive resources to strengthen themselves, thereby rising rapidly.

And in team-competition type worlds, handing over Reincarnators with no residual value to other teams to be killed, in order to increase the other teams' evaluation and exchange for other resources, is also a choice for 【Farming Team】s.

【9527】 is a 【Farming Team】 of this type, and the three people remaining now that the team has shattered are, quite coincidentally, the very subjects who were originally being farmed.

It is almost certain that the news of 【9527】 obtaining the special 【Card】, and even the failure of the original Special Trial, are inseparable from these three farmed individuals.

Bai Cangshu looked at the invisible person on his phone and tapped it lightly.

None of them are simple fellows; to be able to crawl out of that kind of Hell, it's just a pity...

He suddenly stopped his Footwork, and the people behind him stopped immediately as well.

Bai Cangshu looked at Bobby and said,

"That 【Regenerator】 has been bullying you all, hasn't he?"

Bobby was stunned; the word "bullying" made them, a bunch of guys covered in muscle and tattoos, seem quite pitiful and harmless.

Little Black Ans, however, was sharp; ever since he heard Bai Laoda Tao Baibai arrange for Bobby to open various video accounts, he had already vaguely realized the boss's intent.

At this moment, he nodded desperately.

"Yeah, that guy has been using the name of a hero to extort money from us, and even beating our members!"

"That guy is a piece of scum."

Bai Cangshu patted Ans on the head and said with gratification,

"Very good. Since that is the case, a guy who scorns the human rights of us gangsters deserves to be punished."

"We must arrange a... performance for him."

George also reacted, high-fived Ans, and began to turn back to find people to make preparations, while Bobby was still somewhat confused at this time.

Bai Cangshu grabbed this idiot's head, forcing him to lower his body.

"Listen well, Bobby, in this world, many times it is not by acting tough that one earns respect."

"Guys like you, with no future, no capital, and no prospects, are everywhere."

"You incompetent guys who pretend to be tough, aren't you all waiting for a Savior who belongs to you?"

Bai Cangshu's figure stood so straight it was almost distorted; his smile was cruel, but Bobby felt inexplicably at ease, even invigorated. The only problem was...

"Boss, that guy can't even be killed by guns, and he has almost no sense of pain. How should we teach him a lesson?"

Bai Cangshu shrugged indifferently.

"Can't be killed?"

"I have yet to see something that cannot be killed."
