Chapter 65: Surrender
A moment later.
Li Qing and Giorno successfully reunited after a hard battle.
The Bucciarati team also had a happy ending, but the scene was not very pretty:
Apache's fighting capacity was insufficient and his gunshot wound had not yet healed. He was captured not long after all his teammates were defeated.
Giorno tied his hands and feet tightly with vines and tied them to the tires of the car.
Fugo and Narancia narrowly escaped death. Although the deadly virus in their bodies had been cured by the serum, their physical strength that had been consumed by the rapid reproduction of the virus could not be recovered in a short period of time.
They sat limply against the car, their faces as pale as death.
In addition, Bucciarati was injured in the spine and his movements were stiff. Li Qing held a gun to his head and brought him here...
Oh, and we have to include Mista who is still unconscious...
The whole family gathered together, everyone was bruised and injured.
The group of people who were so high-spirited and ready to take over the leadership position in Naples a few minutes ago, now looked at each other with unhappy expressions.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Li Qing laughed heartily, and then said to Bucciarati seriously:
"I have always been considerate and thoughtful, and I never make things difficult for others."
"Bucciarati, you said you were worried that your companions would be implicated by you, and that they would not be able to survive the organization's pursuit... I understand this difficulty, so look, I am helping you solve it now, right?"
"after all…"
He glanced at the prisoners with malicious eyes:
"Those who refuse to surrender can die now. There is no need to worry about being hunted down by the organization."
“…”
There was silence.
Apaki frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, Fugo gritted his teeth and dared not say a word, Narancia cast a questioning look at Bucciarati, and Bucciarati, with a thin layer of sweat oozing from his forehead, made a difficult decision in his heart:
"I see."
Bucciarati let out a long sigh of relief:
"Li Qing."
"I am willing to surrender and fight against the boss and the organization with you."
These words were like a flying stone hitting the water, instantly causing ripples.
"Bucciarati!"
Narancia rushed ahead of everyone else and said excitedly:
"Don't surrender to the enemy just because that bald man threatened our lives."
"Even if I, Naranja, die, I...would rather not see you being humiliated like this!"
"No... Naranja."
"This is not submission, nor is it humiliation. Strictly speaking... this is a choice I made from the bottom of my heart."
Bucciarati's voice was filled with a sense of relief, a sense of relief at finally breaking free from the shackles of darkness and embarking on a new path in life.
At this moment, Bucciarati couldn't help but think back to his childhood:
His father was accidentally involved in a "local specialty" transaction and was not only seriously injured on the spot, but was also brutally hunted down by the "specialty" dealer.
In order to protect his sick father, the 12-year-old boy personally killed the villain who came to silence him, and became a murderer who was unacceptable to both the black and white worlds.
Then, the Passion organization took him in and provided him and his father with safety and shelter.
But at the same time, his life began to turn dark.
Having had such a tragic experience, Bucciarati has been living in pain and contradiction in the past few years:
On the one hand, he was grateful to the organization for taking him in when he was in trouble, allowing his ill-fated father to pass away peacefully a few years later.
On the one hand, he hated the "local specialties" that brought endless darkness to his life.
Unfortunately…
The Passion organization, which was kind to Bucciarati and made him work for it, is the largest seller of "local specialties" in Italy.
Precisely because of this contradiction and entanglement, he has been wavering between the two identities of "rebel" and "loyalist", to the point that he has developed the awkward desire to "first gain real power within the organization and then transform the organization from within."
Although he was promoted all the way in the organization and was highly valued, he never felt free.
But now, being threatened by a bald man with a gun pointed at him without any freedom, he felt that he had broken free from the invisible shackles that had troubled him for a long time.
“This is my choice!”
Bucciarati's eyes became firm:
"Fugo, Naranja, Apache..."
"I have made the decision to challenge the boss with Li Qing, resist the organization, and change the world!"
Apache was speechless.
On the first day he made up his mind to join the gang, the boss advised him to leave the gang and join in the fight against crime and evil. This experience was bizarre enough.
"Yeah…"
"Is this a voluntary decision made by Bucciarati? That's good..."
Naranja's forehead was covered with sweat, and his voice was trembling slightly:
"Although I am afraid, really afraid, because the organization is so powerful..."
"But, as long as it is Bucciarati's wish..."
"I...no matter how scared I am..."
He spoke the bravest words in the most timid tone:
"No matter what you do, I...I will try my best to follow you!"
"What are you talking about!"
Narancia made a difficult decision, but Fugo yelled hysterically:
"Bucciarati... Narancia..."
"Are you all crazy?"
"In the past ten years, there have been more than one or two people who have challenged the boss. They are all strong people whose status and abilities are no less than ours...but what is the result?"
"All dead!"
"Those idiots are all dead!"
"Some of them were cut into pieces, some were made into specimens, some were thrown into pig farms as feed, and some..."
These are classic stories that have been circulated in passion organizations for many years to enhance organizational cohesion and promote corporate culture.
Fu Ge excitedly recounted the great achievements of his boss over the years, his face extremely gloomy:
"So many people have died... Why do you think you are special?"
"We go against the organization and the boss, and our fate is——"
“Ahem!”
Li Qing coughed violently, his eyes becoming slightly dangerous.
"The end... the end... may not be so tragic..."
"Maybe... maybe we'll win?"
Fugo said with tears in his eyes:
"Since everyone has chosen this, I'll do the same!"
"very good."
"You made the right choice."
Li Qing nodded with satisfaction, then slowly moved the cold gun barrel away from Fugo's head.
The outcome was set. Regardless of their reluctance or determination, this powerful team that was about to challenge Diablo had finally taken shape.
"Since everyone has made a decision, I will simply tell you the information I have!"
Without waiting for Fugo and the others to express their opinions, he went straight to explaining his experiences in the morning.
Of course, Li Qing’s focus is still on Diablo’s stand ability.
"Eliminate time?"
"This...isn't this invincible?"
Fugo's expression became increasingly ugly, but Bucciarati's focus was obviously different from Fugo's:
"It is indeed a very powerful Stand ability, but since we have this information in advance, it is not impossible to come up with a way to crack it in the future."
"only…"
He asked with some concern:
"Li Qing, you only know the boss's stand ability, but you don't know his identity and appearance."
"The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. How should we fight back?"
"That's up to you."
Li Qing spread his hands and said helplessly:
"You are at least an insider, but Giorno and I know nothing about the internal situation of the Passion organization."
"Since you have access to the organization's internal intelligence, you should be able to figure out where to start."
"this…"
Bucciarati said seriously:
"Indeed, if you really can't find the boss, you can directly attack the key departments of the organization."
"For example, the General Staff, the Finance Department, the Intelligence Group..."
"If these important units were paralyzed by the attack, the boss would definitely not sit idly by and do nothing."
"After all, if he didn't come forward to solve the problem in that situation, the organization would have collapsed."
"right!"
Hearing Bucciarati's words, Li Qing immediately agreed:
"That's exactly what I mean!"
"The monk may escape, but the temple cannot. We will just destroy all the properties under his name. Are we still afraid that this coward will not show up?"
"Don't bother."
A voice suddenly sounded, and it was Abbasi who spoke, who had remained silent from beginning to end.
He looked at Li Qing with a very complicated look:
“Maybe this is God’s will…”
"When I was about to give up on myself and numb myself with darkness, fate brought me back to the light in this incredible way."
“It’s ridiculous… but I’ve come full circle.”
"It seems that I am destined to be a police officer who uncovers the truth and protects justice..."
As Apache said this, his eyes gradually became firm:
"I will help you, Li Qing."
"With my Melancholy Blues here, it may not be difficult to expose the boss's true face."
