Chapter 53 Negotiations Failed
Chapter 53 Negotiations Failed
Boli was somewhat tempted after hearing this, but the Yin Beasts were jointly owned by the ten elders, and no one controlled a single Yin Beast, so it wasn't something Boli could decide on his own.
Moreover, except for the gathering of Youkexin in September, the Yin Beasts are separated in different areas at other times.
So instead of giving an answer right away, Boli stood up, turned around, and made a few phone calls.
It seems they are asking for the opinions of the other members of the Ten Elders.
The questioning didn't take long. Boli sat back down with a somber expression and said, "I'm sorry, but now you only have one choice: to obediently become the substitute for the Shadow Beast."
It seems that Boli had a falling out with the other old men, which is why he looked so grim.
"Then I'm sorry, but we can't agree to these conditions. Let's end the negotiations here." Eligi showed no respect for the gang, not even for Aina behind Boli.
And so, Eriji, along with Gaara and Kakuzu, turned and prepared to leave.
However, at that moment, the windows and doors around the house closed automatically and the iron bars fell down.
Then, more than a dozen machine gun barrels could be seen extending from around the hall. If such large-caliber machine guns were to hit a Nen user, the Nen user would probably not be in good shape.
With his hands clasped under his chin, Boli said in a deep voice, "I've already told you, you only have one choice: to have a capsule implanted in your heart."
Seeing the confident Boli in the video, Ailiji couldn't help but smile and said, "You're wrong. I have a second option: feed—Aina, stop acting."
Upon hearing this, Aina suddenly produced a fine needle formed from sand and pierced Boli's head.
Boli looked surprised at the sight, then asked in bewilderment, "Aina, what are you doing?"
Of those present, only Owl was a Nen user, so he immediately guessed, "Mr. Boley, Aina has probably been taken control of by them, and now they want to control you through Aina."
Boli was not under control, so he instinctively broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that he would stumble here after being so careful for so long.
"Whatever you want to do, even if you control me, it's useless. The family sends people to check our bodies every year. If you are found out then, it won't be as simple as killing a Yin Beast." Boli forced himself to calm down.
Eligi spread his hands and said, "It doesn't matter. Could things get any worse than being discovered? Let's deal with these two."
Ailiji looked at the man with the braid and the owl.
Without hesitation, Owl turned and fled into the secret passage, and Kakuzu gave chase in a flash.
The man with the braid shouted frantically, "Then you all can die first!"
The man with the braid attempted to press a switch to activate the machine guns around him.
Unfortunately, with the hand speed of a normal person like the man with the braid, how could Elij possibly give him a chance?
Suddenly, a small stone appeared in Ailiji's hand, which she threw at the man with the braided hair.
The man with the braid felt a sharp pain and numbness in his wrist, and he couldn't even hold onto the remote control button, which fell to the ground with a "clatter".
Then another stone, imbued with spiritual energy, struck the man with the braided hair on the forehead. The sound of his skull cracking could be heard throughout the room.
"At your leisurely pace, I could kill you thirty-six times over," Eligi muttered to himself.
At this moment, Kakuzu returned carrying Owl. Upon seeing the situation, Owl said without hesitation, "I am willing to accept control."
"Ah! You have absolutely no loyalty, but you're still somewhat useful, so you can stay here for now." Eligi smiled. The reason he kept Owl was because he and the Phantom Troupe had their eyes on the same thing.
That's right, it's an auction item from a gang.
Even if hundreds of items are sold at low prices on the black market, they would still fetch tens of billions.
Eliji currently has 1.3 billion Jenny, of which 1 billion Jenny was given to him by Kurapika, and the remaining 300 million is his savings.
One hundred billion plus one billion makes one hundred and thirteen billion. How many times can that be used to make cigarettes?
"You really intend to control me? Have you thought this through? Things could get really bad, and death might be a luxury for you." Even now, Boli still couldn't believe things would come to this.
"Death, luxury? I really don't understand how you connect these two words. Well, today's conversation went quite well, so I'll leave it to you, Aina."
Eric picked up the remote control from the ground, immediately ended the video call, and activated all the surrounding mechanisms. The machine gun was also retracted, making it a close call without any real danger.
Next, Eligi may have to become a gang member for a while.
This was truly a wonderful experience!
"Gangsters seem to like wearing ties and black suits. Looks like I need to get myself a set. It's been a long time since I've worn a suit. I wonder if I'll be able to get used to it," Eric muttered to himself.
The four of them walked out of the villa. The gang members outside saw Xiao following Eligi and assumed that the group had reached an agreement, so they did not make any rash moves.
The gang issue is considered temporarily resolved.
Now that Ellige and his group are members of the Doyle family, a criminal gang, it's believed that the bounty on the black market will be lifted soon.
That leaves only the bounty on Meteor City.
However, now that he's joined a gang, the other side will probably be more cautious when they make a move, and the number of blatant attacks will decrease significantly.
In fact, it was pretty much as Ellige had guessed.
According to underground sources, not long after Elligie and her group joined the Doyle family, the number of people chasing them gradually decreased.
Ailiji and his group were able to re-enter the bustling city.
In early July, Ailiji and his entourage, dressed in suits, walked through a town on the outskirts of Youkexin City, officially becoming members of the Doyle family.
They are currently stationed in an important town stronghold of the Doyle family.
To put it simply, it means providing security for the Doyle family.
This venue mainly deals in smuggled items for auction, and everyone seems to be busy preparing for the September auction.
Looking at the auction items piled up in the warehouse, Eligi used his condensed energy to observe them, and in just a moment he discovered that many of the auction items had condensed Nen energy on them.
When geniuses in certain fields are focused, there is a certain chance that they will leave their mark on their work.
Therefore, works that retain their vitality are considered to be of exceptional quality and are considered to be of very high quality.
Seeing these items, Eric couldn't help but ask the middle-aged man beside him with some curiosity, "Quentin, can these be sold internally with an offer?"
