(3rd Person POV)

"Did you hear about the fight between Jake Ji and Felix Shin?!?!"

"Yeah, I heard about it. Jake had beaten up Gerard and that is why Felix got pissed off!"

"You might not know but Felix also beat up Dean Kwon who is at 9th rank along with Jake Ji!"

"Wow, I never expected The Falcon to be able to defeat Jake Ji... Isn't Eunjang baring its fangs against Union now? Only Donald Na can defeat Felix Shin, right?"

"What if.... even Donald Na is unable to do that?"

"Stop joking. Donald Na could have defeated Jake Ji without using his full ability. I am sure that he will definitely win against The Falcon."

"There is also the rumour that Falcon defeated Jake without suffering from any injuries or bruises. Do you think that's true?"

"That's a fake rumour. Do you really think that someone can defeat Jake without any damage? What a fool... anyway, let's show the rankings to Derek!"

Shuttle Patch Rankings -

1. Donald Na

2. Felix Shin, The Falcon

3. Jake Ji

4. Myles Joo

5. Ben Park

6. Wolf Keum

13. Gerard Jin, Hot-Foot Jin

15. Unknown

"Awesome, Gerard Jin also rose in the rankings. Isn't that because he fought Jake Ji and injured him?"

"Yeah, but why did Ben Park rise in the rankings?"

"I don't know how these rankings work but it is all fine. Anyway, I am sure that Felix Shin with his crew must be planning against Donald Na, right?"

"I agree. They don't have the leeway to waste their time when the Union could crush them anytime."

While the rumours about Felix Shin planning to take over the Union was running rampant in Yeongdeungpo, the person in question was.....

Felix had a serious expression on his face as he readied his stance. He took a deep breath and focused his senses to the extreme.

He got into the right posture and... used the cue in his hand to hit the cue ball using the cushions into the pocket.

(A/N: Cue - Stick used in pool. Cue Ball - The balls in pool. Pockets - Holes in pool table)

As soon as the cue ball went inside the pocket, Felix threw the cue upward and started celebrating," Yay!!! Yippee!!!! Woohoo!"

His opponent Gray had a dejected and despondent face.

"Haha, Gray! This is now my 100th win against you! Our score is 100-0! You should now know that you will never be able to defeat me!"

Gray caught the cue stick that came hurtling down at him and said placidly, "Yeah, Yeah... Of course, you would always win. I should have never challenged you."

Felix stroked his non-existent beard sagely while he said, "Don't worry Junior. Your senior will help you in advancing your cultivation in pool game."

While the rest of them were enjoying the antics of Felix and Gray...

Ben clapped both of their backs and said, "Let's end this game and eat something. My stomach has been grumbling due to hunger for an hour. Let's order food today!"

"Yeah!!!"

While we were waiting for food, Felix asked with a solemn expression, "So, what are we gonna do about the Union? We are too deep in to get out of this problem. I am sure Donald Na will try to crush us."

"Yeah, I also think so. Haven't we disregarded Union blatantly and gone against it? Felix has even beaten Union's biggest card, right?"

All of them then looked at Eugene, the information agent in the group.

Eugene said, "Yeah, we might have to be ready for the showdown sooner or late-"

Felix interjected in between, "Wait a minute, what if we even defeat the Union? Then what? I am sure some other organization like Manwol might take its place, right? Eugene, do you know about any other organization that might try to take over?"

"Felix, you might not know but there is an organization in the area next to us - Cheonggang. They are recently very active on the borders of Yeongdeungpo so there is a chance that before The Union comes to us, there might be a showdown against Cheonggang vs Union."

Felix exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, so it's like that, huh? The Union are leaving us for the last. It will be fun to devour them before they can do it to us... Eugene, any way of knowing information about the members of Cheonggang?"

"Uh...it might be tough. But I will check in the Shuttle Patch site. Cheonggang is much more secretive than the Union so there is not much information about them on the internet."

"Thanks. Tell me as soon as you find something."

Felix then turned toward all of them and said, "Anyway, I just got a really good idea to crush The Union and Cheonggang together. We will ambush The Union when they had almost taken over Cheonggang. It will be the perfect time for us to do that."

However, Stephen halted Felix and asked, "Wait a minute, Felix. How will we know when The Union is gonna attack Cheonggang? We can't keep an eye on Cheonggang all the time, right?"

Felix massaged the bridge of his nose for a couple of minutes thinking about how to solve this conundrum when an idea struck his mind and he started chortling.

After a long chuckle where everyone was looking at him weirdly, he said, "Oh boy... Donald would never expect that..."

In Donald Na's office,

Donald Na was talking to someone over the telephone.

"So, he beat up Jake in less than 10 minutes?"

The voice over the phone replied, "We are taking 10 minutes as the maximum time. He might have beaten Jake in even 5 minutes. We were unable to know about details properly."

"Don't worry about that. You just continue your job and keep reporting to me about Jake regularly, Naksung Yoon."

After Donald kept the receiver down, Kingsley behind him asked, "Are we continuing with our original plan?"

Donald ruminated for some time and then said, "Yes, Eunjang will be kept for the last... We will focus on Cheonggang first."
