Chapter 038 | Night Raid | [Announcement At Chapter End]

Dark clouds loomed, obscuring the dim stars and the moon.

At 8:20 P.M, Luke swaggered into the naval camp with the Howling Commandos in disguise and greeted the soldiers eagerly.

Boxes of tobacco, wine, and food were sent to the officer's barracks as if they didn't need the money.

There were also enchanting and coquettish stripper girls, wearing exposed clothing, posing on the stage for performance, attracting hooting from men below.

"Captain David, here's a small token of my appreciation."

In the munitions department's meeting room, Luke, wearing a black hat, coat, and suit, sat across the desk.

He pulled out a palm-sized long gift box with a smile on his face with a glittering pearl necklace inside, one could tell it was expensive, based on its color and size.

"I came in a hurry and didn't bring any gifts, so I'm giving a necklace to the Captain' missus."

Captain David, who had a beer belly, nodded in satisfaction and put away the gift box without a word.

In these times of war, the monetary system had already collapsed. Banknotes are no different from waste paper. Only gold and jewelry were hard currency.

"By the way, for the other ... ahem, Captain David can give it to a friend. "

Luke turned to another gift box, and inside was an even more valuable green agate necklace.

Captain David's eyes lit up. 'This smuggler has done his homework, even knowing that I have a mistress.'

He didn't notice Luke's pitying eyes at all. The captain didn't know the color of the hat he himself was wearing, just like the green agate necklace. He was genuinely clueless.

(TNote: green hat = cuckold)

"To tell the truth, Mr. Corleone, I've heard Lieutenant Cirio talk about you. Since you are his friend, you are also my friend. If you want to engage in smuggling, the navy will give you a warm welcome to ensure your ships are unimpeded!"

Captain David is also a sincere man, and after receiving the benefits from others, he patted his chest and promised, "In the future, I can have Lieutenant Cirio send a battleship to escort any of your smuggling ships!"

"Then, thank you, Captain David, this is just a small gift. The surprise is yet to come. "

Luke's eyes flickered for a moment as he said meaningfully.

"However, we also have conditions ... As long as Mr. Corleone is willing to let the navy take half of every cargo, we will certainly work well together. "

Captain David's eyes were full of greed. He finally made real offer.

The navy can't carry out smuggling openly and earn huge profits, so they wanted to use Mr. Corleone as an ATM.

Half of the profit from each private shipment could let these senior naval officers eat their fill.

Right now, the domestic situation is agitated, and the war is increasingly fierce. The only way to make money was to seize any opportunity!

This is what Captain David thought.

"You know we take a huge risk by covering up smuggling and possibly going to military court ..."

Looking at Captain David's insatiable appearance, Luke still had a smile on his face and didn't seem to be angry at all.

He suddenly stood up, raised his hand, looked at the time, and whispered, "It's time. "

"Mr. Corleone, what are you talking about?"

Captain David was bewildered. He didn't know why the smuggler stood up for no reason.

Moreover, the overlooking eyes of the other party made him very uncomfortable!

It was as if his existence suddenly became small!

"Sit down! Mr. Corleone!"

Captain David said in an aggravated and irritated tone.

"Haven't you noticed yet, Captain? You are no longer qualified to give orders. "

Luke laughed as he heard the commotion coming from outside.

With the fear gas produced by Gotham's Scarecrow, taking care of these Italian soldiers couldn't be easier.

The Howling Commandos only needed to wear gas masks before releasing the gas.

Before long, the whole camp will be paralyzed.

The navy soldiers, gripped by fear, were like lambs to the slaughter, completely defenseless.

"What's going on? What's going on? What do you want! I'm warning you, don't come over here!"

Captain David finally realized that something was wrong. The frightened screams outside were now coming into the room.

He quickly pulled out the pistol attached to his belt, but before he pulled the trigger, his arm was twisted and broke.

The white bone splinter pierced the skin and spurted out a lot of blood.

A sharp pain struck, and Captain David fell to his knees, unable to help but cry loudly, trying to alert the guards outside the door.

"I'm sorry, I didn't control my strength. "

Luke apologized without sincerity.

Looking at Captain David, who kept moving his bloated body backward, there was no fluctuation in his heart.

Thanks to the experience he learned from 'painting houses' with Uncle Frank, Luke had no psychological burden from blood nor death.

"Don't waste your energy. The soldiers in the camp either went to see the strippers or are crying in terror … The guards on duty were also taken care of by us. "

He faintly said.

The entire camp, including the lower marine police quarters, the construction department, the munitions department, the health department, the port authority, and the warehouse, had long since collapsed under Howling Commandos' sudden attack on Mafia members.

Even patrol boats, minesweepers, and logistics support boats were eliminated by a gang of brazen invading Mafia in the name of Captain David's 'rewards for the soldiers.'

It isn't only Scarecrow's fear gas, but drinks laced with something special. Drinking it will incapacitate anyone, even elephants.

This incident showed that the Italian army, without any vigilance, was lax enough to be handled by a gang of Mafia.

"Let me go! Please, Mr. Corleone, Sir!"

Captain David begged and even changed his address.

"Of course, I will let you go. Killing prisoners is inhuman behavior."

Luke shrugged his shoulders. He just let go of his strength and made the unfortunate Captain scrunch his expression.

"Don't be so afraid, Captain David. I'm not the devil."

Captain David's eyes were full of fear.

Luke is no different from the devil in his heart.

How can an ordinary person break his arm as if he was breaking chopsticks?

Moreover, he also felt that the other party didn't use any effort at all!

"Stay here and don't try to do stupid things. You can't inform the garrison troops in other camps because we have already destroyed the radio station and also cut the phone lines."

Luke took a deep look at Captain David, then walked over and took the pearl necklace back.

As for the other green agate necklace?

It was a fake prepared by Alessandro.

Luke pushed open the door of the meeting room, and heard faint cries of horror outside.

The fear gas instantly transformed the Italian naval soldiers into fragile infants. They were dragged into darkness by fear gas, and the most frightening visions appeared in their minds, destroying their will.

The screams of fear echoed under the night sky.

However, the slight noise that came out swallowed instantly by the sound of waves lapping against the rocks.

A group of mafias swarmed in, using axes or pistols, killing all the patrolling guards in sight without mercy. Simple and decisive!

It was a silent raid. Luke stood on high, looking down at the bloody flowers blooming in the night, and sketched a satisfied smile around his mouth.

By tomorrow, half of Sicily will fall into his hands.

....
