Chen Fan waved his hand and rose, quietly leaving the room.
At this moment, his heart was filled with confusion.
He couldn't fathom who else would seek trouble with him besides the Mitsui Group.
Although this was a relatively prosperous street in East Cherry City, it was still early. While there were pedestrians, they were not many.
As soon as Chen Fan stepped out, he casually walked towards a convenience store by the roadside.
When he reached the entrance of the convenience store, the shadowy figures lurking in the street began to change their grim expressions and moved towards Chen Fan.
They were all holding thick newspapers rolled into cylindrical shapes in their hands.
This group comprised over a dozen individuals, all dressed in black suits, with scorpion tattoos faintly visible on their necks.
Chen Fan noticed all of this through the reflection in the convenience store's glass window.
However, Chen Fan found these approaching individuals very peculiar.
From their attire and tattoos, Chen Fan could easily guess their identity.
In the land of Sakura, black suits, uniform tattoos, and newspapers concealing knives –
the identity of this group was written all over their faces.
They were members of the underground syndicates.
Yet, to Chen Fan, he was the King of the Night!
A few syndicate members dared to challenge a king?
Moreover, Chen Fan sensed something was not right with them; they seemed more than just syndicate members.
Where did they come from?
Chen Fan found these dozen people quite intriguing. Standing at the entrance of the convenience store, with his back to them, he waited.
He had a feeling these dozen individuals were not as simple as they appeared.
Soon, the dozen syndicate members rushed up to Chen Fan.
The leader was a bald man, burly and ferocious.
At this point, he no longer needed to conceal himself.
He tore off the newspaper, revealing a shining machete, and with a hissing Sakura accent, uttered four syllables.
"Bastards, you're asking for death!"
"So noisy," Chen Fan acted without haste.
Dealing with such minor characters didn't require him to use his internal energy; a quick turn and a punch would suffice...
"Huh?"
Chen Fan had already turned around, but his fist couldn't be thrown.
Because standing before him was no longer the ferocious syndicate member, but a masked ninja in a dark blue ninja suit, wielding a samurai sword!
"So that's how it is..."
At that moment, Chen Fan understood what was happening.
Although the ninja's blade was fast, Chen Fan skillfully dodged it.
"Ikashi! Kill him! Avenge Shirou!"
After the sword strike missed, the leader ninja roared in anger and threw a shuriken at Chen Fan!
Immediately after, all dozen ninjas shed their disguises and swarmed forward, their weapons all aimed at Chen Fan!
Chen Fan was quite surprised at this moment.
After all, the Mitsui Group wouldn't have come so quickly, and he hadn't offended anyone else here.
Judging by their attack methods, they were clearly ninjas hiding in the shadows. How angry must they be to openly confront him like this?
Their posture suggested a deep-seated hatred for him!
Where did they come from?
Chen Fan's heart was filled with curiosity.
Thus, he clenched his fists and, without resorting to his internal energy, relying solely on his extensive close-combat skills, he took on over a dozen opponents and subdued them all within half a minute.
Because the fight ended so quickly, the store clerk in the twenty-four-hour convenience store, who was holding his phone to call the police, was so stunned that he forgot to make the call.
It was understandable, as what had just happened was incredibly shocking!
First, after a burst of smoke, fierce syndicate members suddenly transformed into cool ninjas.
Then, these cool ninjas were swiftly beaten down by an ordinary-looking man with lightning speed!
"Uh? Excuse me..." The clerk asked blankly, not daring to step outside, "Are you filming a movie?"
"Yes, we are filming a movie. Please pretend nothing happened," Chen Fan replied in fluent Sakura, without looking back.
At the same time, he quickly walked over to the leader ninja.
The leader ninja, battered by Chen Fan, was groaning in pain on the ground.
Like his dozen companions, he had been beaten to the point where he couldn't get up.
"I ask, you answer. No nonsense. Understand?"
With one foot on the leader ninja's head, Chen Fan looked down, his voice icy and filled with killing intent.
"Bastard! I'll kill you! Avenge Shirou!"
Despite being pinned under Chen Fan's foot, the leader ninja still roared furiously.
"Who are you talking about? Who is Shirou?" Seeing the other party's demeanor, Chen Fan sighed helplessly.
"Bastard! You don't deserve to mention Shirou's name! I'll kill you!" The leader ninja cursed.
"Alas! You brought this upon yourself." Chen Fan sighed again.
Then, he slightly increased the pressure of his foot on the ninja's head.
Even without using his internal energy, Chen Fan, a veteran of countless battles, had his own methods!
As he applied more pressure, the leader ninja felt as if his head was about to be crushed!
This was not just a feeling.
As Chen Fan gradually increased the force, the leader ninja's body began to succumb to the pressure, blood flowing from his seven orifices.
"Ah! Help! Aoww—"
A few moments ago, the leader ninja could still endure.
But now, the intense pain was unbearable, and he let out heart-wrenching screams of agony.
Aside from his head, which was under Chen Fan's foot, the rest of his body twisted frantically due to the unbearable pain.
However, even if he twisted his neck to the point of breaking or contorted his head and body into unnatural shapes, he could not escape from under Chen Fan's shoe!
"President! Perhaps we should tell him!"
"I'll tell! I'll tell! Please don't torture our President anymore!"
"Speak! We'll speak! Whatever you ask, we'll answer..."
"..."
The leader ninja was indeed tough, unwilling to yield even unto death.
But seeing his neck twisted and broken, and his face streaming with blood from the agony, his subordinates struggled to rise, knelt before Chen Fan, and tearfully pleaded.
"Very well, your attitude has saved his life." Chen Fan lifted his foot, temporarily sparing the leader ninja.
