Kapitel 34: 34.

Two months later~

A series of loud noises rang throughout the newly formed Leo Towers, followed by loud thuds that nearly shook the whole building.

"Sir!!" Nathan hurriedly opened the door only to find Kai and several top-tier martial artists they had hired on the floor groaning in pain, "Are you okay..."

"You don't mean to ask me that do you, so why pretend." Kai wiped away his sweat as he began walking way out of the door with Nathan following him, "Is there no one better?"

"We have hired pretty much all of the best martial artists around... the few of them that you knocked out were even specially brought from all over Asia." Nathan said with a slight bitterness in his voice, "I can guarantee they were the best in their respective fields."

Kai sighed shaking his head as he didn't expect learning martial arts to be this easy. Of course, with the given fact of his well-built physique and strength, he was certain he could learn things more proficiently but he didn't account for how much of it would really factor in his training.

From Judo to Karate and even training with weapons, with his acute senses he could not only learn and copy moves easily as well but added with his toughness, he could practice for hours without ever getting tired. Learning what takes people months if not years of training and conditioning their body within a single day.

Normally, he would feel glad and much happier considering his newly formed fighting style as it was considerably much better than anything he could hope for at the moment. Not to mention learning how to use his strength much more effectively was a clear advantage over his wasted moves and strength before.

But the fact that he was in another world, where every other bloke on the street seemed to have something special about them... It was hard to gauge the effectiveness of his training let alone determine if what he learned was going to be enough.

"Sir, if I may... I suggest we throw a formal party as several people want to form connections with the new Don. Doing so would not only shut down the few groups who I believe are conspiring against us but help us create the standing we desperately need as of right now."

Kai rolled his eyes as he couldn't really find himself being completely situated as a Don or the new Kingpin, "Isn't that your responsibility?"

"Sir, when I took on the role that you forced me into... I accepted it under the condition that although I'll manage and continue our work, I want to refrain myself from the spotlight." Nathan said out loud.

After the few months they had been working together, Nathan was finally comfortable enough to say his thoughts out loud although fearful, he knew Kai wouldn't kill him just for speaking his mind.

With the fiasco ending with the Fisk, he begrudgingly took on this new role at his job with a solid promise of his family being looked after, and with the majority of Fisk's unruly and illegal businesses being dumped, he felt finally secure enough to carry on with this job.

"Fine... you can arrange something although I am not sure how it might go." Kai chuckled as Nathan shrank his shoulders imagining a massacre happening at the party.

Taking a deep breath he nodded, "That'd be an excellent choice, sir."

"I'll begin sending out invitations and preparing for the event immediately." Nathan continued, "And sir, Miss Rogue wants to meet you as she is having trouble regarding her training schedule."

"Ignore it." Kai shook his head, "It's not like I can send her to a regular school, so she's going to have to manage to learn how to fight and study at the same time. Coaxing her would only lead to more annoying complaints."

Nathan nodded, "And sir, from the list of recruits I've looked into... I believe I have finally found the right person to be your secretary."

"For the last time, I am not running anything here so why are you being so annoyingly insistent on it," Kai said with his lips twitching as the meek man before him seemed to have grown rather confident against him.

"Sir, it's rather for the appearance than anything else, and besides with a secretary by your side it'll ease up on my workload... need I remind you sir as per our agreement I have yet to spend time with my wife and my kid."

"Fine do whatever..." Kai gestured for Nathan to leave shaking his hand, giving up on his willful behavior against him.

"Have a pleasant day, sir." Nathan smiled, "Oh and I have the file on the secretary I have chosen for you on your desk, please be sure to let me know if you have any concerns."

"Yeah yeah....Fuck me..." Kai shook his head heading towards the newly built training hall.

The whole plan was to end up with the resources and wealth that Fisk owned previously, not to rule over it. Regardless of how much of the previous illegal operation he had shut down, the reputation followed with the rumors of how he had ruthlessly taken over the operation he had now inevitably become the new Don.

Entering the empty room, tiled with heavy-duty metal from all sides, Kai stretched for a bit, "Together, forever..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black armor covered him completely from head to toe in an instant. Streching his hands forward, he focused on his brother's vengeful spirit conjuring a heavy sword in his right hand.

With a deep breath, he concentrated his cursed energy on the sword covering it with a black aura of sorts as he unleashed his strike.

*Boom*

The building shook again, as the smoke cleared out it revealed the whole side of the wall blown away, leaving a gaping hole that overlooked the city below. Kai stood amidst the wreckage, the residual energy of his strike still crackling around him. He gazed out at the skyline, his thoughts a turbulent mix of frustration and determination.

"Together, forever," he muttered again as the armor deactivated leaving his body completely as the vengeful spirit floated beside him.

"Not that bad..." Kai murmured to himself patting the damaged steel wall, "I wonder if it will fare well against something like Vibranium."

After defeating Magneto, he gained enough Kill points to earn a finger which led to a more upgraded cursed energy and physical strength. Which allowed him to access further cursed energy easily allowing him access to what else could the vengeful spirit achieve.

From his understanding as of now, he could tell that his brother's spirit worked in two different ways. Protection and destruction. When focused on protection, the armor provided unparalleled defense, shielding him from most physical and energy-based attacks. On the offensive side, the vengeful spirit could amplify his strikes with devastating force, as demonstrated by the obliteration of the steel wall with little to no cursed energy output from him.

But he knew there was more to his powers than he could currently understand.

Besides practicing with the vengeful spirit, Kai's current focus on training was separated into two more practices, the first one being Reverse Cursed Energy which was easier said than done as the sole understanding of the principles of Reverse Cursed Energy was something he had understood from the get-go but understanding the principle and putting it into practice was two separate things.

The second one was something he had made much more progress towards which was his Domain Expansion.
