Boss Max leaned back in his seat with an imposing aura surrounding him.
His eyes were cold and piercing as he gazed toward the people all around him.
He recognized each of them as those who were able to climb up to get a seat at the table and be able to maintain their positions.
The gang had reached a point where it was able to support itself with many of those people working together.
Max had been able to take more of a backseat in the gang for many years as he started to feel the effects of ageing.
Max was just happy enjoying his early retirement and staying away from all of the dangers and difficult problems that came along every day.
He could enjoy his retirement with a steady flow of money constantly coming into his possession as the others kept everything running.
Max made some occasional drop-ins and made some important decisions at times so his presence was not completely erased.
When he did show up, everyone was able to see who the true boss was in the gang.
All those who believed themselves to have the most power in the gang were not so sure of that any longer during such times.
Max's voice was just as imposing as his aura as he began to speak to all of them. "I have come out today because I have been informed about some concerning matters. I will not waste time so I think the matter should be addressed right away.
His eyes turned fierce and murderous as he looked toward Butch. "Do it."
Butch had his hands in his pockets previously as he sat there but as he moved from his seat, his hands were revealed upon pulling them out.
On his hands was a pair of thick rubber gloves and he rushed over toward a man that was seated next to him.
The man sitting next to him was startled the moment that the order was given and by what followed. "Wha?!"
His body moved on instinct as his Quirk began to activate causing volts of electricity to surround his body.
His criminal alias was known as Taser due to the Quirk that he possessed and the type of Quirk that he had was an electrical type.
It was not as big and flashy as an electrical-type Quirk as it should be and it could be considered as being less powerful.
He could release temporary high-voltage, low-current electrical discharges like a lot of electroshock weapons used to stun and override the boy's muscle-triggering mechanisms.
He was very useful since he could stun people with the use of his Quirk but it came with limitations.
Taser could not fire electricity like a lot of other electrical types.
All that he could do was create electrical discharges over the layers of his skin so it required him to make contact with others for it to have an effect or to be at least close enough for the discharge to make contact with them.
When he released the discharge from his body to protect himself, sparks began to fly all over his skin as the rest of his body was ready to fend off his attacker.
Taser did not know what was happening but he soon found that Butch had grabbed onto him and did not fall like others would.
His eyes widened as he realized that Butch had come up with countermeasures in advance.
Soon the reality dawned on him as he came to realize that everything had been planned out ahead of time.
Taser did not have time to think anymore as the brute strength of Butch forced him down to the ground causing him to fall into a kneeling position with his head being pressed into the ground.
The power behind the physical capabilities of Butch was not something he could contend with and Taser had always relied on the assistance of his Quirk to overcome many threats.
He may have learned how to make himself stronger and to learn how to fight so he could better use his Quirk but it became useless in the face of his Quirk being able to perform its main use. "Guah.."
The rubber gloves on the hands of Butch were not the only thing that had been prepared since Butch had many other things worn underneath his usual suit.
As Taser struggled and tried to aim elsewhere during the struggle, nothing seemed to work and that only made it worse for him as he was beaten down.
Butch looked over toward Max like a loyal dog seeking praise from its master. "Boss. I have subdued him."
Max nodded in approval before turning his attention back toward the remaining higher-ups in the gang who had been startled by the sudden change.
Despite not knowing what was happening and seeing Taser being attacked, they did not dare to go forward and stop it especially when it all happened so quickly.
They dared not go against Max who had just given the order so they could only try to regain their composure as they waited for the reason behind everything that had taken place before their eyes.
Max stated plainly without leaving any room for doubt. "Taser was a traitor. He has enjoyed many privileges from his position but it seems that he has gotten a little too greedy. He has forgotten his place and betrayed all of us.
Let this be a lesson to you all from now on. Nobody should step out of line otherwise I will be back again like today. I think I have made my point very clear."
As he got up from his seat, his assistant began helping him toward the exit while Butch dragged Taser behind them as he begged for mercy.
