"There are currently no more Hand members in the United States, and all their strongholds have been taken down."
"According to the latest information, after being brought back to the Charles Agency, Madame Gao was executed and her body was taken away for cremation."
"Even the personnel responsible for escorting Madame Gao's ashes were killed by the Continental Hotel's assassins. By the time we arrived, Madame Gao's ashes had already been scattered by the rain..."
Listening to the report from his subordinate, Stick burst into laughter.
"Hahaha!"
"After so many years, after so many years, the Hand has reached this point. Madame Gao, not only did you die, but your ashes were also scattered. Without a body, how do you plan to return?"
At first, Stick didn't care when he heard that Madame Gao had been taken away. He knew that even if Madame Gao was killed, she would return.
However, he didn't expect Charles's method to be so special, directly cremating Madame Gao. Now he knew that one of the Five Fingers of the Hand had been completely annihilated.
Madame Gao could never return.
As Stick was laughing heartily, he suddenly remembered his deceased disciple and immediately stopped laughing.
Approaching the coffin, he looked at Matt Murdock lying inside. Stick's expression turned solemn, and he murmured, "Rest assured, Matt. I will definitely avenge you."
"No one can kill my disciple and live to tell the tale."
At the same time, an idea arose in Stick's heart. If he could find the dragon bone, could he also resurrect his disciple...
Then Stick gave an order, "Gather all the information about Charles and find out everything about him. I want him to pay for what he's done!"
"Investigate all the activities of the Hand in Hell's Kitchen before. Find out why they came here. I don't believe that the Hand sent one of their Five Fingers, Madame Gao, just to establish a factory."
One of Stick's loyal members immediately nodded and said, "Yes!"
Seeing his subordinate leave, Stick looked at Matt's corpse in front of him. His expression was serious as he said, "Disciple, it seems like your body needs to be preserved.
"Otherwise, when we really find the dragon bone, I won't be able to resurrect just a skeleton..."

On the other side-
Charles Doyle returned to his agency in his car. He noticed a medium-sized truck parked outside the office, with cute and adorable pet illustrations on the side and the words "k9natural Express Delivery."
K9natural, the Hermes of the pet world, 500g for $100.
Charles parked his car and walked over. He saw Iruka talking to the delivery personnel and asked, "Iruka, what's going on?"
Seeing Charles Doyle approaching, Iruka replied, "Lord Charles, they're from a pet food company. They say we ordered a batch of dog food and pet snacks, so they came to deliver it."
Charles took the delivery list from Iruka's hand and glanced at it briefly. He noticed there were quite a few items, including a ton of k9natural dog food, salmon, steak, chicken breast, large beef bones, various pet canned food, snacks, and even a large bag of pet toys.
There was also a luxurious doghouse.
At the bottom, it was marked as the delivery for this quarter, with deliveries scheduled every quarter.
Charles looked at the items on the list and thought to himself, "Tony Stark truly is a big dog lover. He ordered quite a few things for Parker."
He then said, "These are gifts for Parker from a client. Let's get them inside."
With that, Charles entered the agency, and Iruka instructed the workers to unload the items.
…
On the other side of the ocean, in Japan-
The Hand's headquarters-
A high-level meeting was underway.
Originally a council of five, today only four were present, representing the other fingers of the Hand: Alexandra, Bakuto, Sowande, and Murakami.
The atmosphere in the room was heavy, and none of the four spoke up initially, with time ticking by.
Finally, Alexandra broke the silence and said, "Madame Gao went to New York to search for new dragon bones on behalf of us all, and according to the information we received, she has been killed, completely obliterated. What should we do next?"
Murakami, who had a closer relationship with Madame Gao, was the first to speak, "Madame Gao was one of us, one of the Five Fingers of the Hand."
"Since she has been killed, we must avenge her, or how will others perceive us, the Hand, especially now that Madame Gao cannot possibly return? Our power will be greatly weakened."
"Others will know that the Hand is not an invincible entity."
Murakami paused for a moment, and the other two concurred, "We have no objections; we agree to seek revenge."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Alexandra continued, "Besides revenge, there is one more thing of utmost importance: Madame Gao's previous mission to find the dragon bones must also be resumed."
"Based on the information sent back to headquarters by Madame Gao before her death, the general area of the dragon bones has been narrowed down."
"The dragon bones are buried in the land of Hell's Kitchen in New York."
"Companions, we now have very few dragon bones left, so the task of finding new ones is urgent and must continue."
"This time, all four of us will mobilize our forces, bringing our respective subordinates. On the one hand, it is to avenge Madame Gao, and on the other hand, it is to find the dragon bones."
At this point, Bakuto and Sowande also spoke up, "The four of us haven't worked together for a long time. This time, we must let the outside world know the terror of the Hand."
Seeing that everyone had expressed their willingness, Alexandra pressed a button on her remote control, and a large screen displayed the picture of Charles Doyle along with his identity information.
"Now, we need to understand our enemy, Charles Doyle."
"Due to the devastating blow suffered by the Hand organization in the United States, our intelligence is lacking. This information was purchased through other channels. Currently, we still do not know why the High Table had a conflict with us."
"But what is certain is that the bounty on the Hand throughout the United States was set by them. Therefore, in this operation, we not only aim to eliminate Charles Doyle but also to set fire to the Continental Hotel in New York."
With Alexandra's explanation, the group gained some understanding of Charles Doyle's identity and strength, and a plot against Charles Doyle began to take shape.
