When the capture of the Big Deal finally began, the battle unfolded with countless twists and turns.
While Jake Kim was preoccupied with confronting Yuseong and Xiaolong at the same time, the fierce street battle that the gang held so dear continued in brutal fashion.
Even if the Big Deal members had the willpower, the Workers were simply too numerous. There were at least five Workers henchmen for every Big Deal member, which made the battle only a delay to the inevitable.
The main members of the Big Deal, preoccupied with facing the most dangerous people on the battlefield, were unable to help their comrades.
The situation became completely unbalanced for those who lived in that street.
But it couldn't all be based on hopelessness.
Jake wouldn't allow his members to be massacred just out of pride.
He had a plan in place.
If the Workers wanted to capture the Big Deal, then why wouldn't they do the same?
By capturing their main leader: Eugene.
With the help of Samuel Seo, Jake was able to devise a plan to capture the Workers' president.
With the location of where Eugene would be hiding during the war, Jake needed to use his contacts and "good" word of mouth to recruit a powerful ally...
Johan Seong.
But like any good plan, it wasn't foolproof. Stopping Yuseong from leaving to save Eugene was something Jake was unable to do, after all, Xiaolong was just ahead of him.
But that didn't matter anymore.
Because from that moment on, everything was in the hands of Samuel and Johan.
Unfortunately for the Big Deal, Eugene had powerful allies of his own. Even though Johan had captured him, the war had only just begun.
.
In a metal smelting factory, Charles Choi watched the river of molten metal below him with bored eyes.
Sitting on a chair, he felt the menacing heat of that huge cauldron with a pensive face.
Waiting for the Big Deal to bring Eugene so that he could finally put an end to that treacherous rat, Charles couldn't help but ponder his own plans.
Yuji Shinakawa's recruitment was underway. With the capture of the girl important to him, it was inevitable that the boy would come to the country with the intention of saving her.
First, he intended to capture all the people important to Yuji who resided in Korea, but two of them were capable enough to defend themselves, which made things complicated.
But in the end, it didn't matter. Charles knew that the girl, who was supposed to be a love interest, would be enough to make Yuji angry.
But Charles didn't fear his anger. In fact, that's exactly what he wanted.
Yuji didn't know where the girl was, and Charles took the necessary steps so that if the boy tried to eliminate him, he would never find out, or, if for some reason he did, it would be too late to save her.
Charles didn't measure the means to complete his goals. Killing an innocent girl? It didn't matter to him.
In the end, the girl's fate depended solely on Yuji.
But why would Charles go to such lengths for Yuji?
In a general summary of his interests: Power.
Someone so young and talented was destined for greatness. Charles wanted total control of someone like that, even though he already had real monsters working for him.
He wanted to uncover the reason for the boy's talent, which surpassed anyone he had ever met in his life.
With someone with so much potential, not even the sky was the limit. Destroy his enemies? Take over a city? Dominate a country? All this was possible, even if the boy wasn't strong enough at the moment to do it.
Given enough time, Charles was sure that Yuji would be someone that absolutely no one could stand up to, not even an entire army.
He couldn't let someone like that get out of his control.
And the elimination of Eugene was essential to this goal.
Initially, he didn't intend to destroy the Workers, but with Eugene's power growing, and the plans he was making in the darkness to overthrow him, it was inevitable.
The last thing he wanted was for Eugene to somehow be able to bring Yuji over to his side.
He needed him dead, and he needed it as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, he couldn't do that with his bare hands.
So he decided to use the Big Deal for this purpose.
Whether or not they would succeed was a question he could not control.
But even if they didn't.
Eugene's fate would still be inevitable.
.
The Big Deal had failed.
All their main plans, completely destroyed.
Jake Kim had been defeated, and Johan unable to capture Eugene, although he had been able to put Yuseong out of action.
All the Big Deal members were completely defeated, beaten by the Workers.
Their last hope was their former leader, former Big Deal number one Sinu Han.
But even though he was strong, Sinu Han still couldn't face everyone alone. Warren Chae and Eli Jang together were able to hold him off, and with Mandeok's support, his victory was becoming a distant dream.
Even though he said everything would be fine, that he would protect that street with everything he had, everyone knew better.
That was the end of the Big Deal.
Sinu Han's fight would only delay the inevitable.
But was it all just hopelessness? Was the destruction of the Big Deal, and the street they had sworn so much to protect, really inevitable? Would no one else help them? Could no one save them?
While the Workers firmly believed that no, their victory was certain, fate seemed not to be on their side.
Because while Sinu Han was struggling to keep up in front of Mandeok, everyone's attention turned to the entrance to that street when loud footsteps began to sound across the battlefield.
Someone was coming, and everyone could tell immediately...
Whoever it was, it couldn't be anyone ordinary.
Because the frightening sensation that the strongest fighters in the place were feeling could never be emitted by an ordinary person.
"It seems to me that there's been quite a party going on around here."
With two silhouettes appearing in the distance, their figures overshadowed by the heavy rain that had suddenly begun to fall, a new voice made the Workers' executives recoil at the presence.
"It's a shame I wasn't invited."
The members of the Workers, despite the fear that plagued their bodies, stood in front of the two figures. Fearful or not, they were still in a war, and pride would never let them back down in front of just two people.
But unfortunately for them, these two people were far from being mere onlookers.
Because, standing in front of that crowd of henchmen, the two figures finally revealed themselves completely.
And Eugene, who at this point had already reached the battlefield, immediately recognized one of them, and with awe, he could tell.
Yuji Shinakawa was in Korea.
"Maybe I'd get there sooner, if that were the case."
