"Mmm..."

At this moment, a soft hum suddenly came from his ear.

Following the sound, he saw Erii, who was lying on his lap, move slightly, as if she had found a more comfortable position. She rubbed her head on Wu Xian's thigh and then let out a faint murmur.

"Godzilla~ H!"

The air suddenly went quiet. The members of the Snake Eight Families who were originally groaning on the ground also closed their mouths one by one, making the surrounding environment so quiet that a pin drop could be heard, leaving only two "snap" sounds like broken strings.

That was the vein on Gen Shizheng's forehead.

"You... bastard!!"

Gen Shizheng stood up slowly, resisting the pressure, his eyes red as he looked at Wu Xian, his teeth almost shattered.

Although he didn't know the content of the previous notepad dialogue where Erii and Wu Xian were roasting each other, as long as he combined it with his sister's habit of giving nicknames to others, even if he guessed with his toes, he could know who that so-called "Godzilla" was referring to.

Damn bastard, he even said he didn't do anything to Erii, now the truth is out!

"Young Master!"

Yabuki Sakura, who was also pressed to the ground by mental power, said with difficulty to Gen Shizheng: "Uesugi family head... she spoke!"

Hearing this, Gen Shizheng was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, looking at Erii with incredible eyes.

The anger in his eyes dissipated more than half in an instant, replaced by a touch of shock and joy.

And at this moment, the terrifying pressure pressing on him from all around dissipated instantly, but Gen Shizheng didn't brake in time with one effort and almost stumbled and knelt down again.

But now he couldn't care about these things, and hurriedly walked forward, wanting to check Erii's condition, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.

Seeing this, Wu Xian smiled slightly, then picked up Erii, who was still fast asleep, walked to Gen Shizheng, and said in a gentle tone.

"It's getting late. Erii and I will make do here for the night. Bring me to the headquarters of the Snake Eight Families tomorrow. There are some things we need to have a good chat about..."

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse. You should understand that even if everyone here adds up, they won't be my opponent. If you are unwilling to cooperate, I don't mind letting them suffer a bit, and then visit the Snake Eight Families one by one in my own way."

Thinking that this was Japan, Wu Xian decided to follow the local customs, used mental power to restrain his voice, and said in Gen Shizheng's ear: "Young Master, you shouldn't want to let the people of the whole family suffer because of your own reasons, right?"

Crack!

This was the sound of the jaw joint colliding violently.

Just like that, Gen Shizheng was silent for about half a minute, first looking at Erii, who was lying in Wu Xian's arms with a rosy complexion, and then looking at Sakura, Crow, and the others.

Finally, after a sigh, he stepped back two steps to the side, bowed his head slightly, and made a respectful gesture that only appeared when facing a superior.

"As expected of the future family head, able to bend and stretch, a good material for doing big things."

Wu Xian nodded with satisfaction, then ignored the hateful gazes of a group of passersby around him, picked up Erii and walked into the bedroom. After putting her on the bed and covering her with a quilt, he turned to look at Gen Shizheng who had followed, and said with a smile.

"Come to think of it, Erii and I have known each other for a day, and it's time to discuss the dowry... Brother-in-law, what do you think?"

Hearing such a shameless remark, Gen Shizheng didn't get angry this time, but pondered for a few seconds before asking in a low voice: "What does your Excellency want?"

"Don't worry, I have no interest in the Snake Eight Families. That's your thing. Even if you don't want it, it's still yours."

Wu Xian's tone was very flat, but the words he said next made Gen Shizheng fall into incomparable shock once again.

"What I want is very simple, and that is to let Erii become the new White King."

As everyone knows, the underworld is an extremely special existence in Japan.

Because it is legal, and it is the only country in the world that allows underworld organizations to be legalized.

For example, the Triads and the Yamaguchi-gumi, these legal underworld societies that were put on the table in the last era, like most companies, pay taxes every year, and members who join these underworlds even have social insurance and unemployment benefits.

The reason why this magical situation occurs is, in the final analysis, because of Japan's historical legacy problems.

Japan's underworld originally originated from guilds in various industries, which were similar to the gun associations in the Free Country. And with Japan's long period of confusion and chaos after World War II, these underworld cultures born from major guilds were subtly integrated with Japanese culture, almost indistinguishable from each other.

It was also because of this reason that no one could ban the legalized underworld in Japan, because doing so was infinitely equivalent to being an enemy of the gun association and even the labor union in the Free Country.

And all of the above were just underworld organizations formed by ordinary people. If the background of the hybrid world was added, it would be even more unfathomable.

For example, the Snake Eight Families where Erii and Gen Shizheng were located.

According to the original setting, this was an existence composed of eight hybrid families, like an underworld royal family, divided into the Upper Three Families and the Five Minor Families, which had lasted for thousands of years and had always stood firm.

For the Japanese underworld, they were the undisputed kings of Japan, and even the Emperor might not be as useful as them.

Over a long period of time, after any underworld force's fighting and territory grabbing, they had to go to the Snake Eight Families' shrine to "burn incense" to show that they followed the rules and laws they set.

Because of this, even limited by Japan's own resources and the shadow brought by the defeat in World War II, the power of the Snake Eight Families was still at a level that European hybrid families had to fear.

At least in this one-acre-three-centimeter land of Japan, except for that old madman Angers, no hybrid had ever been able to get any good juice from the Snake Eight Families.

Until... today.

Morning, 9:47.

A black sedan stopped at the entrance of Gen's Heavy Industry, and the current head of the Snake Eight Families, Tachibana Masamune, had been waiting for a long time.

"The arrival of a distinguished guest, I really failed to welcome you from afar."

Looking at the black-clothed young man who walked out of the back seat door, and the red-haired girl who was led by him to get out of the car, a flash of light flashed in Tachibana Masamune's eyes, and then he smiled and stepped forward to greet him, without any majesty of an underworld emperor, more like a gentle old man next door.

"This is Mr. Tachibana Masamune, the head of the Tachibana family, and also the current head of the Snake Eight Families."

Gen Shizheng introduced him to Wu Xian, but in his mind, he recalled the last sentence the other party said last night, and there was deep worry in his eyes, always feeling that something incredible would happen today.

"Oh! So you are Mr. Tachibana Masamune. I've looked up to you for a long time, I've wanted to meet you for a long time."

Hearing Gen Shizheng's introduction, Wu Xian couldn't help but look at Tachibana Masamune with a playful look, then the corners of his mouth lifted, revealing a meaningful smile.
