Chapter 20 Dispute!

Watson District is the district with the most potential for commercial development in Night City. It has a seaside beach and a wide industrial area, making it the perfect place for a company to operate.

But the most terrible thing now is that they have lost all their territories in Watson District. Once the top management of Arasaka Corporation finds out about this, they will probably have to replace the gang leaders with new ones!

After all, even if the company wants to raise a dog, it has to raise a vicious dog that bites people. A stray dog ​​that can't even guard its own territory is not worthy of being used by the company.

The situation is not optimistic. How could Taketo, Sato Hiromi, Masahiro Shoho and others, the leaders of the Tiger Claw Gang, not be anxious?

Seeing Taketo's forehead veins bulging with anger, Jotaro closed his eyes and remained silent. Sato Hiromi, the leader of the Tiger Claw Gang, finally spoke up to stop him:
"Okay, now is not the time to mock each other. If we mess this up, the company will never let us off."

Now that we are facing a powerful enemy and the situation is extremely complicated, any gang infighting would be an extremely stupid act.

The reason why the Tiger Claw Gang was able to gain a foothold in Night City and become the largest gang is because of the community's cohesion of "righteousness first".

"How to deal with the triads is our top priority. Even if we can't take over Little Chinatown, we have to take back the Kabuki District, right?"

Sato Hiromi said, "I have no right to care about the minor frictions that happen to you guys, and I am too lazy to care about them, but you must pay attention to the major events within the gang!"

After the words fell, although the leaders present had different thoughts, they all nodded respectfully, indicating that they would follow Sato Hiromi's opinion.

No matter how much they fight for power among themselves, they will not allow outsiders to invade the Tiger Claw Gang's territory.

The Kabuki District is an area in the Watson District that the Tiger Claw Gang has painstakingly managed for many years. Every brothel, Super Dream Club, casino and other business premises here are the result of their hard work.

The revenue that these production areas can bring to the Tiger Claw Gang every year is counted in tens of millions of Euros. The Kabuki District can be called their treasure trove!
Even if you look at the entire Night City, this district is a rare fertile land. Without the revenue from the Kabuki District, the Tiger Claw Gang would lose a huge amount of property every year.

No matter who comes here, there's no way they'll let it go!
"Wu Dong, have you found out the details of LA Company these days? That guy named Li Ang, where did he come from?"

Hiromi Sato glanced at Wudong. He had certainly heard of the LA company that had recently become famous in Little Chinatown.

But like the police officers in the NCPD, Hiromi Sato also did not know the specific information about Leon. It could be said that he knew nothing about this emerging corporate force.

"It's not clear yet, but what I can be sure of is that LA Company has nothing to do with the Triads, and Li Ang is most likely not Chen Tao's backer."

Wu Dong said with certainty.

He placed his own spies in the Triads, and based on the information from the spies, Chen Tao even had to ask someone to introduce him to buy kinetic weapons.

If LA Company was really the backer of the Triad, why would Chen Tao still need someone to lead the way and introduce him?

Sato Hiromi nodded thoughtfully.

As long as it's just a gang fight and the company isn't involved, things won't be that troublesome.

When Hiromi Sato first learned about kinetic and technological weapons, she thought it was just a hype by arms dealers.

After all, it's not the first time that the damn gun dealers have done such a dirty thing, making up rumors, creating trouble out of nothing, and spreading fake news everywhere.

In terms of moral bottom line, those arms dealers in the underground black market are not even as good as the lowest sex dolls. It is no exaggeration to say that they are scammers who deserve to be killed.

Even Sato Hiromi, the leader of the Tiger Claw Gang, had been cheated several times. "Since LA Company has nothing to do with the Triads, we can buy their weapons and products. When the time comes, we will have to give back as much territory as Chen Tao has taken from us!"

Jotaro snorted.

"If it was really that easy, I would have led my men to retake the Kabuki District long ago. The LA company won't sell weapons to us Tiger Claws. If we want to buy them, we have to pay a higher price and order them from a middleman!"

Wu Dong said this with an angry face. He pulled out an M-76E Omaha technical pistol from his waist in frustration and slammed it on the floor with a bang.

"Just this gun cost me two thousand euros!"

The porcelain bottle filled with sake fell over, and the dry floor was soaked by the sake. Seeing this scene, Jotaro's face turned pale. He couldn't help but curse:

"Are you out of your mind? What if the gun goes off accidentally? I still want to live two more years!"

Seeing Jotaro cursing, Wu Dong smiled instead of getting angry:

"Haha, you still want to live for another two years? Without the production area in the Kabuki District, you will have to beg on the street in less than a year!"

Sato Hiromi had no time to care about the dispute between the two. He raised his hand to interrupt Wu Dong and asked, "You said that LA Company doesn't sell weapons to our Tiger Claw Gang. Why is that?"

Logically speaking, arms dealers should treat their customers equally, or at least are unlikely to favor one side over another.

Whoever has money is the boss.

However, the LA company only targets the Tiger Claw Gang, which is obviously unreasonable. How can a company only do business with one gang?

"Who knows? Li Ang is a serious Chinese. Maybe he just doesn't like us."

Wu Dong smiled bitterly and shook his head.

He is just a gang leader. It is impossible for him to go and fight with others just because they don't sell things to him.

The object of Night City's protection is always the company, and what it maintains is the company's interests. If they dare to provoke the company's people, they must be prepared to be wiped out.

"How could such a thing happen!"

Hiromi Sato frowned. It seemed that things were a hundred times more difficult than he had imagined. This LA company was not targeting their Tiger Claw Gang, but the entire Watson District!

In Night City, there is a gang stationed in each area, such as the Tiger Claw Gang in Westbrook, the Valentino Gang in Haywood, and the Animal Gang in Pacific Island.

The Tiger Claw Gang is the black glove of the Arasaka Corporation. The Valentino Gang controls various key points in the Heywood District through social relationships and family connections. Even the local cops have to curry favor with them.

Now, with the help of LA Company, the Triad has kicked the Tiger Claw Gang out of the Watson District. It is obvious that Leon intends to completely take control of this district!
The giant corporate forces that control advanced weapons and have the ambition to control Night City can only rely on military technology backed by New America.

When he thought of this, Hiromi Sato felt like his head was about to explode. Military technology was a behemoth that they could not afford to provoke.

If they want to regain the territory of Kabuki District, Arasaka Corporation may have to take action personally, but how could the company's top management agree to them!
