Most people are born ordinary, but there are always some who, despite being born ordinary, aspire to greatness.
From an exploited undocumented worker to the godfather of the dark;
From those who obey the rules at the bottom of society, to the emperor behind the scenes who makes the rules;
The country belongs to the federation when the sun shines, but it belongs to me when the night falls!
"Sometimes, shadows can not only be as vast as light but can even cover it!"
"We never extort anyone, every penny we make can pass through our conscience."
If someone knocks on your door at night, they either bring my regards or brings the destruction for your arrogance.
As for what you will get, it depends on how you choose, my friend!

The Red Dog Gang's bars had been around for a long time, enjoying a loyal and slightly increasing clientele, suggesting stiff competition.
