Chapter 39 - The Gambino family

In a valley five miles hidden from the bridge, a huge gathering of mutated humans is happening.

For the past week, regiments upon regiments of them came from different directions and camped there as if waiting for something.

A small part of their group is sent to the bridge to pin the humans and to make sure that they can't escape.

..............

Back in the island, everyone is talking about the new visitor.

Adam followed Lorenzo as they were lead to a huge mansion at the center of the island. It was built on top of the highest peak at the only hill on the island.

There were ten old and distinguished men waiting for them there.

The old man in the middle stepped forward when they got near. He supported himself with a walking cane and greeted them with a smile.

"Welcome to my humble house, Lord Black."

"It's my pleasure to meet you Mr. Gambino. When Mr. Rocci of the Venito family approached us and informed me about your situation, I can't just stand by and let it happen."

He smiled as if he remembered something funny.

"Besides, I know about your long trade relationship with the Red Skulls. It would be bad for business of something happens to you guys."

Charles Gambino, the Godfather of the Mafia families, laughed out loud and held his hand on Adam's shoulders.

"I heard how you took over the Red Skulls; I'm glad that you wish to help us. With all the weapons that you possess, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."

He clicked his fingers and then gestured Adam towards the house. The other heads of the Mafia families started to part and gave way for the Godfather and Adam to pass through.

"Come Mr. Black; let's be more comfortable inside the house. I'm sure we have a lot to talk about."

Adam couldn't help but notice a young and tall slim lady in a business suit and a pin skirt.

"Grand Papa! Can I have your permission to escort Mr. Black to our family diner?"

The Godfather with his fearsome reputation amongst the mafia families simply shook his head and smiled. He gestured for his granddaughter to go on with her wish as they walk towards the house.

............

Adam learned about the history of the Mafia faction in this world, specifically the Gambino family.

The Gambino family is just a small branch of the original Mafia in this area. In fact Mr. Gambino is not even part of the main family of the Gambino's, his mother is a mistress of the head of the Gambino's and is just one of the enforcers of the main family back then.

However, when the apocalypse happened and the world went upside down. He was fortunate enough to survive. Along with some of the people he knew, they fought their way through the zombies and found their way to this island.

They took over the previously unorganized island residents and established the first Mafia families that are now governing the organization.

Later, they found out that the island still has electric power compared to the main land. When they conducted an investigation, they were delighted to find out that the island's Fusion Power Plant is still operational.

They were also lucky that the island have a few military facilities and bases. They were able to properly arm themselves and protected their new territory.

Adam was actually surprised when he first saw the Mafia's enforcers. Compared to the other two faction's armed forces, the Mafia have definitely greater firepower and body armor.

They even have modern tanks and armored personnel carriers. Those tanks can even give Adam's toys something to think about.

With all the firepower that the Mafia's enforcers have, Adam feels a bit apprehensive as to why they are still losing this war.
