The crackdown on organized crime began with the arrest of the mother-in-law.

Chapter 448 I'll shoot him dead!

Zhao Yun didn't know what Qin Chuan's trump cards were, but Qin Chuan's arrogance impressed him.

To be honest, none of the gangsters were as arrogant as Qin Chuan, who took out the drug dealer's henchmen right away.

"Open the beer!"

Eating roast chicken and drinking beer, Qin Chuan was in an extremely happy mood.

Although this trip abroad wasn't through the normal procedures, it was still quite interesting for Qin Chuan, as it was his first time traveling abroad.

The jungle here is completely pristine, something Qin Chuan had never seen before.

All the plans have been made, and Qin Chuan will naturally carry them out after seeing the tiger. He's just treating this trip as a vacation.

The Illuminati's stronghold is deep in the mountains and forests, a day's drive from Myawa town.

This is also a major reason why the armed forces here have been unable to eradicate the Illuminati.

Back then, Uncle Kun's influence was scattered deep in the mountains and forests, and no one could do anything about him.

Moreover, Uncle Kun's drug trafficking group had businesses all over the world back then.

It may not be true that he is the richest person in the world, but I doubt anyone would disagree that he has the most cash in the world.

The most important reason why Uncle Kun was killed and his power collapsed was that Uncle Kun had unrealistic expectations.

Back then, his drug trafficking network spanned the entire world, earning him hundreds of millions, even billions, of US dollars every month.

With money and guns, Uncle Kun's ambition swelled rapidly.

Uncle Kun had originally reached a cooperation agreement with the local armed forces, under which he would regularly pay them protection fees, amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.

Meanwhile, Uncle Kun's drug trafficking operations were protected by local armed forces.

But later, after Uncle Kun acquired men, money, and guns, he planned to carve out the entire region and establish an independent kingdom, where he would become king.

This made everyone unhappy—the government forces were unhappy, and the local armed separatist forces were unhappy too.

They can tolerate different people trafficking drugs here, but they cannot tolerate someone taking away this precious land.

Uncle Kun was killed by this group of people because he offended everyone's interests.

While Qin Chao and Zhao Yun were heading to the headquarters with the drug cartel, the leader of the Illuminati headquarters had already received the news.

"Brother Tiger, this Lu Chuan guy... he's really arrogant!"

Qin Chuan naturally couldn't use his own name, so he used the alias Lu Chuan this time.

The Illuminati's stronghold is not as impressive as its name suggests. The prestigious headquarters base has no grand buildings, just rows of thatched huts.

The central council hall is where the leaders of the Illuminati discuss matters.

In recent years, under Tiger's leadership, the Illuminati separated from Uncle Kun's drug trafficking forces and has worked hard to gradually reach its current position.

Although Tiger has secured the position of leader of the Illuminati over the past ten years, he still has eight powerful figures behind him.

These eight Vajras were not only Tiger's capable henchmen, but also held a pivotal position within the Illuminati.

The one in charge of meeting Qin Chuan and Zhao Yun this time was the seventh brother among them, so Zhao Yun called him Seventh Brother.

The speaker was a middle-aged man sitting at the very end of the table.

He had a long scar on his face that looked like a ghost face, which was very scary.

"Seventh Brother just called back and said that this kid didn't even want to put on a hood on the way, and he was eating roast chicken and drinking beer all the way, acting very arrogantly."

"Arrogant?"

Someone nearby scoffed, "Have you forgotten what Old Qi said on the phone just now? This kid killed one of our people the moment we met last night."

"Brother Tiger, I think we should teach him a lesson. So what if he's from the Free and Unfettered Society? He has to show some respect to us in front of the Illuminati."

"Fourth brother, what you're saying is ridiculous. Our Illuminati's territory is right here, while the Free Spirit Society is far away in Hong Kong. There's no conflict between us and them. Besides, we'll be cooperating with them for a long time in the future."

"Fourth brother, calm down. I think what the third brother said is right. Xiaoyao Society is our cash cow, and we still need them to transport our goods out."

“We are in a situation here right now, as you know. The brothers are so poor they’re almost starving. If we don’t get paid soon, there’s a possibility of a mutiny.”

mutiny?

The fourth brother sneered, "Let's see who dares to start this, whichever idiot dares to take the lead, I'll shoot him dead!"
