Nighttime was usually the liveliest in Nacehope City.
Known as the City of Lights, countless people would revel in its streets every night.
But tonight was an exception. Groups of menacing figures from the Azure gang prowled the streets with bats and clubs, causing pedestrians to scatter in fear.
The entire Nacehope City was thrown into chaos.
At a bar belonging to the Marcellus family, dozens of Azure members stormed in. A tattooed man wielding an iron rod smashed it against the bar with a loud bang.
The men and women who had been partying on the dance floor suddenly stopped and looked in amazement at them.
"All randoms get out of here!" he shouted.
A wave of screams followed, and soon, the dance floor, once filled with party-goers, emptied in a panic.
"Who dares to stir trouble on our Marcellus family's turf?" a voice boomed, prompting dozens of bar patrons to rush out.
The tattooed man eyed them without a word, squinting as he declared, "Kill them all! Today, I'll wipe out your Marcellus family!"
"Attack!" Battle cries echoed as the Azure members clashed fiercely with the Marcellus family's people.
Suddenly, four Knights clad in black silently entered the bar, brandishing military knives with cold, emotionless eyes.
Without a word, they swung their blades and cut through the Azure members with ruthless efficiency, leaving them screaming.
These four Knights were like efficient killing machines that the Azure could not withstand them.
"Who the hell are you? Do you know we are from the Azure?" the tattooed man yelled in disbelief at the intruders.
The Knights remained silent, continuing their slaughter unabated.
"Die!" Enraged, the tattooed man charged at them with a sharp cleaver.
"Ahh!" A cry pierced the air as one Knight swiftly slashed the man's neck, blood spurting from the wound.
Clutching his neck in disbelief, the tattooed man never expected these mysterious black-clad figures to turn on him.
He had thought crushing this bar would be easy, given their vast difference in power from the Azure. Yet unexpectedly, these mysterious men in black had killed him.
Now, with their leader dead, other Azure members stood stunned.
The Marcellus family took advantage of it, and in less than ten minutes, the battle ended.
As the Azure gang scattered in defeat, the four Knights disappeared silently into the night, just as they had arrived.
Similar scenes unfolded across the territory of other Big Four Corporations—the Azure members swaggered in, only to slink away in disgrace. Leading figures were swiftly decapitated by the Knights.
In a short span of time, the Azure suffered a humiliating defeat.

Meanwhile, the Azure godfather, Tim, personally led three thousand elites in an assault on the Raglan family, which was the head of the Big Four Corporations. By eliminating them, the Big Four Corporations would crumble.
At this moment, the Raglan Manor compound lay eerily quiet. It was shrouded in darkness with no lights illuminating, displaying a foreboding vibe.
"Mr. Wright, something feels off about this Raglan family," Mr. Grey voiced his concern, his face filled with worry.
Tim squinted, "Whatever plots the Raglan family may have, they're useless against absolute force!"
He then calmly asked, "Are the others ready?"
Mr. Grey nodded, "All set. Everyone's charging into Big Four Corporations' territories. They're likely already in fierce combat."
Tim smiled satisfactorily, "Excellent. From today, the Big Four Corporations will no longer exist!"
His eyes glinted coldly.
Then, he gestured, "Attack!"
"Attack!" The command rang out, and three thousand Azure elites surged towards the Raglan family.
At that moment, all lights suddenly blazed to life, turning the pitch-black night into day.
The three thousand Azure members froze in astonishment and scanned their surroundings in confusion.
Suddenly, thunderous footsteps echoed like an approaching storm, causing the ground to tremble. Moments later, countless people charged from all directions, overwhelming in their numbers.
In an instant, tens of thousands encircled every Azure member.
"What the hell?" Shock registered on the faces of all Azure gangsters. They had come to ambush the Raglan family, only to find themselves surrounded!
"Mr. Wright, it's a trap! We've been duped!" Mr. Grey exclaimed in alarm.
Tim's face darkened. He hadn't anticipated this sudden turn of events.
"Mr. Wright, we have been waiting for you!" A triumphant laugh resounded. Emerging from the crowd, the chairmen of the Big Four Corporations smirked at Tim mockingly.
This time, in their battle against the Azure, they had emptied their ranks. Tens of thousands of elite forces were mobilized.
Tim glared at the four chairmen, his expression darkening. "the Big Four Corporations are indeed formidable to anticipate my arrival. But by sending all your elites here, aren't you afraid your territories will be seized by my Azure?"
With tens of thousands of the Big Four Corporations' best soldiers here, their assets elsewhere must be vulnerable. Even if they manage to win, it would be a pyrrhic victory!
Their strength would be severely depleted, and in Nacehope City, there are not only the Big Four Corporations but also numerous other families. If they weaken, these families will surely rise against them! It's not worth the risk for them!
Sebastian stepped forward, smirking triumphantly. "Tim, do you really think we don't know your plot?"
Tim felt a foreboding sense hearing Sebastian's words.
Sebastian gestured, "Bring out the gift we prepared for Mr. Wright!"
Dozens of people emerged, each carrying a box. Opening them revealed severed heads, dripping with blood.
Tim's eyes reddened. They were someone he had sent to assert dominance over the Big Four Corporations' territories. These were Azure's backbone, now all slaughtered! The losses for Azure were staggering.
Pointing at Sebastian and the others, Tim gritted his teeth. "How did you manage this?"
He couldn't believe that they alone could eliminate so many trained fighters. Each of these people was skilled. The Big Four Corporations didn't have the capability to eliminate them all!
Sebastian sneered, "It's none of your concern. Anyway, the Azure will be annihilated today!"
Tim remained undeterred. "Let's see if you're up to the challenge!"
