The top floor of the Vongola headquarters building.
Vega sat in a leather chair, holding a glass of water, looking at the scenery outside the building, ignoring the five subordinates standing respectfully in a row behind him.
"What's going on now?"
Kroc stepped out from the crowd and replied in a low voice, "Our men saw Councilor Jack send a convoy toward the suburbs."
"According to the information we just received, someone saw that these convoys were going to pick up the airship, and only a few people got off the airship."
"Because you said, young master, that we need to keep our distance, our people cannot hear their conversation."
"However, the only thing that can be confirmed is that although Jack and his city councilors did not come out in person, they sent their subordinates to make the contact."
"As for those city councilors like Jack, although they went out, they went to that heavily guarded club."
Vega turned his chair around and gave the group a scrutinizing look.
Then, in a questioning tone, he asked, "What do you think we should do now?"
"What should we do with Jack and those city councilors?"
The strongest of the five, a man as big as a bear, stepped forward and shouted, "Young Master, we should strike first! Since they only dare to use underhanded tricks, let's take action openly and wipe them out!"
"No way!" A bald man glared at him angrily. "Young Master, Borg is giving us bad advice. Jack and the others haven't done anything wrong. If we make the first move, we'll easily get into trouble. Besides, the people who came down from that airship are very likely sent by the Ten Elders."
"If we strike first, we'll probably offend the Ten Elders completely, and then we'll have to face their power head-on."
Jass immediately rejected Borg's suggestion. After all, taking action now would be tantamount to openly provoking a conflict with the Ten Elders, and he wasn't ready to die like that.
After all, in his view, the Ten Elders' power was too great, and the Vongola Family was simply not enough to withstand the Ten Elders' revenge.
In Jia Shi's view, the conflict arose only from the pharmaceutical powder market. If the Ten Elders were to hold them accountable, they could back down and relinquish the pharmaceutical powder market in Naklo City, as long as the Vongola family stopped selling pharmaceutical powder.
The other two people also shared their opinions.
Generally speaking, it's best not to clash with the Ten Elders, the overlords of the underworld. It's best to find a way to reconcile, so that the Vongola family can peacefully rule the countryside.
Just as Kolok was about to speak, knowing that his young master Vega had already formed a blood feud with the Ten Elders, there was probably no room for reconciliation.
Vega, however, gently waved his hand, signaling Crook to remain silent.
"Alright, I understand your opinions." Vega tapped his fingers lightly on the table a few times before speaking, "Now notify all your subordinates and have them prepare to go to the homes of the other city councilors to handle some matters, so that those city councilors won't be too lonely."
"As for that Councilor Jack, I'll handle him myself, of course," Vega said with a chuckle. "After all, he's someone sent by the Ten Elders!"
"Young Master!"
Upon hearing the implication in Vega's words, Jas and the other two exclaimed in surprise, their faces showing disbelief.
They just couldn't understand why they had to clash with the Ten Elders. Wouldn't it have been better to give up some of their benefits?
After all, the Vongola family simply can't afford to offend the Ten Elders!
Only Borg looked at the three of them with an excited and provocative expression.
"Go, get ready!" Vega waved for the four to leave, leaving Kirk behind alone.
"Tell me the information you didn't finish earlier!" Vega looked at Kolok, knowing that Kolok hadn't finished telling him all the information because there were other people present.
"Yes, young master." Kolok said with a serious expression, "According to information we received from our informant in Jack's house."
"The order to send out the men this time was not given by the Ten Elders themselves, but by Murphy, the fourth son of the Hegel family, one of the Ten Elders."
"Shelby has connected with Murphy and seemed to have been preparing to completely defect to him and become Murphy's direct subordinate. So the people sent to deal with us this time are also Murphy's men."
"After confirmation, only three people came, but they are said to be extremely powerful experts who may possess special abilities."
Vega waved his hand and casually said, "That's not a special ability, it's Nen. Once you become a professional hunter, someone will teach you, and many people have mastered it. Actually, it's not difficult to learn."
Hearing this, Kolok's face showed a hint of surprise, seemingly taken aback that the young master knew so much about it. However, recalling the abilities the young master had previously demonstrated, he quickly understood. After all, the young master himself possessed such abilities, so of course he was very familiar with this concept.
However, a desire also ignited in Kolok's heart. This thought seemed to be something he could learn, and judging from what the young master said, it wasn't difficult to learn.
So, do I have the opportunity to acquire this thought?
Seeing the excited look on Korok's face, Vega immediately understood his thoughts and waved his hand, saying, "After these things are settled, I'll see if you have the aptitude to activate Nen. If you do, I'll give it to you."
"Thank you, young master, thank you, young master." Korok immediately knelt on one knee, placed his right hand on his chest, and solemnly swore an oath.
This ritual is an ancient one, used to swear allegiance. Vega smiled at the sight. "Alright, Kolok, you don't need that. Continue with your intelligence!"
"Yes, Master," Kolok replied solemnly. "So it's not the Ten Elders who are our enemy, but rather Murphy, the fourth son of the Hegel family."
"so..."
Vega reached out to stop Kolok from saying anything more, then stood up and looked out at the scenery.
He said softly, "Is this any different from offending the Ten Elders?"
"And why should I care about what the Ten Elders think?"
He said with a gleam of ambition in his eyes, "Krok, do you know? Naklo City is too small to contain my ambition. I want the position of one of the Ten Elders."
"I've wiped out the Hegel family; no one can stop me now."
