From Hokage to Visionary

Suddenly, he saw four or five unfamiliar faces appearing on the road. They were wearing black suits and looked like outsiders. He immediately became alert.

At this moment, one of the men in black seemed to sense something and turned to look at Bruno.

Oops, found out!

Bruno was shocked, but he remained calm.

A man in a black suit walked over from across the street and stood in front of Bruno. His cold eyes made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Uh, big brother, what's the matter?" Bruno tensed up and pretended to be timid, while being extremely alert inside.

"Why did you look at us just now?"

The man in black stared at him, and there was an inexplicable sense of oppression in his words.

"No, no." Bruno was very nervous, his expression was a little distorted, and he stammered: "Big brother, did you see it wrong?"

"You still dare to lie?!"

The man in black snorted coldly. Of course he knew Bruno was lying, so he raised his hand and grabbed his neck, clasping his fingers tightly: "I'll ask you again, why are you looking at us?"

Bruno, whose neck was tightly held, felt difficulty breathing, his face was covered with blue veins, and his pupils were bloodshot: "I'll tell you. I'll tell you."

The man in black then loosened his fingers and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Tell me, I believe you dare not lie to me again, otherwise you will have to bear the consequences yourself!"

"cough cough cough cough"

Bruno knelt on the ground, coughing desperately, begging for mercy with a terrified face: "Brother, brother, I was wrong, I was greedy, I was stupid, I just peeked at you, I thought you were rich, so I planned to steal something, brother, please forgive me."

The man in black frowned slightly, looking at Bruno who was kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. He sneered with disdain, raised his foot and kicked Bruno in the stomach, cursing: "Little thug, get out!"

God knows how strong the man in black is. Bruno was kicked and felt that at least two of his ribs were broken. The severe pain in his abdomen made him almost unable to stand. Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, but he still insisted on getting up: "Yes, yes, thank you, brother, I'll get out right away!"

After saying that, he bent over, limped, and quickly went into the alley.

Others came over and asked, "Damon, what happened to that guy just now?"

Damon shook his head and said with a little disdain: "It's okay, he's just a thief, I've already sent him away."

"Forget it, he's just a little thug, don't worry about him."

His companion patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't waste time. The intelligence above shows that he appeared here three days ago. Let's check it out quickly."

"We're already investigating, but the problem is that the Snake's range is so small, what can I do?" Damon sighed and complained, "God knows where he went. Naples is so big, if we investigate one by one, how long will it take to find him?"

"It's okay. The person assigned by the higher-ups will be here soon, and he will cooperate with you then."

The companion smiled and said, "The Word Spirit is a blood-related knot. It can search for people with dragon blood within the range. With your 'snake', you will find him soon."

"Blood knot? Oh my god, it finally got the hang of it!" Damon was relieved, and then asked: "When will it come?"

The man looked at his watch and said, "Soon, the boss said we'll be there in a few minutes."

Chapter 380 A Promise Worth a Thousand Pieces (Part )

About a few minutes later, a black Mercedes stopped on the side of the street.

The car door opened, and an elderly gentleman with gray hair, a striped suit with gold edges, a gentleman's hat, and a cane walked out.

The moment they saw the old man, Damon and a few others quickly walked over and bowed their heads respectfully: "Sir Albert, I didn't expect that the family would ask you to help us. I'm really sorry to trouble you to make this trip."

Albert Gattuso is the uncle of Frost and Pompey and one of the actual rulers within the family.

Among the hybrids of the previous generation, he is considered to be quite famous, and he once had a glorious record of killing a newly awakened third-generation species alone.

Now, the acting head of the family, Frost, has invited this old antique out. It is enough to see how much importance he attaches to capturing Caesar.

"No need for so much formality. I am also shocked and disappointed that something like this happened to our family. The most important thing right now is to catch the murderer as soon as possible." Albert nodded and smiled, taking off his hat. His face was covered with wrinkles eroded by time, but his deep blue eyes contained wisdom and charm. "You are the commander here. It's up to you to decide what to do next, Damon."

"Yes, Sir Albert."

Damon said respectfully, "Then I'll ask you to use your words to search for suspected targets within the range."

"it is good."

Albert was very elegant, without any airs at all, and smiled amiably: “I am old, please give me some time.”

The danger level of the Blood-type Jie Luo is extremely low, and it has no attack capabilities, so it can be considered an auxiliary-type word spirit.

This word spirit can enhance the sender's sensitivity to bloodline perception, and try to resonate with the surrounding dragons and hybrids with its own bloodline, so as to locate the opponent. The stronger the bloodline of the individual, the easier it is to be discovered by the "Bloodline Knot".

Of course, there are also some individuals who are strong enough to hide themselves and isolate themselves from the resonance, and even stronger individuals can use the resonance of bloodline to kill the spirit of the releaser in turn.

Albert held a cane, and his sea-blue eyes were tinged with gold.

That staff is an alchemical item that can amplify and enlarge the sensing range of the Blood Knot, causing the dragon blood in the hybrid to be activated uncontrollably, and it can also protect the spirit from being killed by powerful individuals. However, its disadvantage is that it will accelerate the consumption of the releaser's energy.

hum~

An invisible wave spread from Albert's body.

Damon could feel his bloodline, as if it was being called by something, and his golden eyes lit up unconsciously.

The situations of the other two people were basically the same as Damon. They all opened their golden eyes at the same time, and an invisible throbbing vibrated in their blood.

Fortunately, they had their auxiliary members disperse the ordinary people nearby in advance, otherwise the moment they revealed their golden eyes, they would release the pressure of the hybrids and cause some unnecessary trouble.

"what?"

Suddenly, Albert opened his eyes, the horizontal lines on his forehead wrinkled, and he seemed a little confused.

"Sir Albert, have you found any trace of 'him'?" Damon saw the confusion on the old man's face and thought he had found some clues.

"There is a hybrid here. Its bloodline is very weak and it has not yet awakened." Albert half-closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Did you see anyone suspicious just now?"

"Just now? It seemed like there was a gangster who was planning to steal." Damon was stunned when he heard this, and the image of the gangster kneeling on the ground begging for mercy appeared in his mind.

"Thug." Albert's face was slightly gloomy, with flames dancing in his golden eyes, and he asked in a slightly cold voice: "Which direction did he go?"

"Dear Sir Albert, please forgive me for being frank. He is just a gangster. Even if he is a half-blood, there is no need to pay too much attention to him. Our target should be 'Caesar Gattuso'. We should not waste time paying attention to a gangster." Damon said.

"No Damon, you're wrong."

Albert's golden eyes were very cold. After scanning a few people, he said indifferently: "Although that hybrid is very weak, he has the reaction of high-level dragon blood!"

"High-level dragon blood reaction?!"

Damon's face suddenly changed and his heart was shocked.

"Yes, it's a very high-level dragon blood reaction." Albert stroked his cane, ending the effect of the Word Spirit. He panted slightly, his face seemed to be much paler, and he said softly: "I think you should understand what it means for a hybrid with a very weak bloodline and has not yet awakened to suddenly have a high-level dragon blood reaction!"

That’s right, the answer is obvious. It’s Caesar Gattuso!

The high-level dragon blood reaction does not rule out the possibility of an undiscovered hybrid, but the possibility is extremely low.

A more reasonable guess is that the gangster had close contact with Caesar Gattuso, and the reason why he just paid attention to them was not because he was "stealing targets" but because he was being vigilant!

"Damn it! That damned little bastard actually dared to play tricks on me!"

Damon was extremely angry, veins popped out on his forehead and his face turned red and purple. He was actually deceived by a gangster!

"It's okay, you're still young, and you can correct your mistakes." Albert patted the young man on the shoulder and said calmly, "Now, the most important thing is how to recover from the mistake. Now that the scope has been determined, the only thing left is to reduce it little by little. He can't get away."

"Thank you very much for your teachings, Sir Albert."

Damon took a deep breath, got rid of his anger, dialed the phone calmly, and said to the other end: "Find the person who notified the execution team, surround this slum, they can't escape, I want to wash away this shame myself!"

After ending the call, he suddenly crushed the phone with a cold and sinister look in his eyes.

"Very good, you dare to play tricks on us."

Damon turned his head and looked towards the alley, gritting his teeth and said, "When I catch that bastard, I will break all the bones in his body!"

Bruno limped home with difficulty, holding on to the wall.

Having grown up in the slums, he had suffered countless injuries, so he knew very well that the kick just now must have broken several of his ribs.

The severe abdominal cramps made him grit his teeth in pain, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

But even though he was dizzy and staggering from the pain, and fell into the dirty mud pits several times, Bruno still gritted his teeth and persisted, holding on to the wall and standing up again little by little. His goal was firm and clear: he had to go back and tell Caesar the news!

Bruno's intuition told him that the target of those people just now was Caesar!

At this moment, he suddenly felt his heart palpitating, as if someone was watching him. He felt like a thorn in his back and felt a deep fear in his heart.

But when Bruno turned around, the narrow alley was empty.

boom!

boom!boom!

His heartbeat seemed to be speeding up, causing Bruno some pain.

He was not paying attention to his step and accidentally stepped into a pit and fell. He covered his violently beating heart with his hands. Bloodshot gradually filled his eyes. The unspeakable feeling almost suffocated Bruno.

In a trance, he saw himself in the puddle and was shocked beyond words.

His pupils became as dazzling as gold, flowing like lava, exuding a majestic aura.

Chapter 381 A Promise Worth a Thousand Pieces (Part )

Bruno returned home with difficulty and pushed open the dilapidated door with force.

"Are you hurt?" Caesar sat on the edge of the bed. The sunlight outside shone through the window onto his long hair that was as dazzling as gold. His handsome face, like a Greek sculpture, was set off by the soft light, like a solemn Buddha statue in a temple, looking down at the world from above.

"It's not serious, cough cough. I'm used to it." Bruno sat down while holding the table, gasping in pain: "Compared to this, I have something more important to tell you."

At this time, Caesar looked at Bruno's embarrassed appearance and was stunned: "Why is he so embarrassed?"

"These things are not important."

Bruno covered his abdomen and took a deep breath to suppress the severe pain from his broken ribs.

Caesar sensed a hint of tension in Bruno's expression. After a little thought, he guessed the reason and said calmly, "Did someone discover me?"

"How do you know?" Bruno asked, then realized he had asked a stupid question and shook his head, "Forget it, you guys are too mysterious, I shouldn't ask too much. I saw a few people in black suits on the street, and my intuition told me that they were here to see you."

"Were you discovered by them?"

Caesar frowned slightly and glanced at Bruno. His clothes were messy and dirty, and it was obvious that he had returned in a hurry.

"Yeah, but it's okay. I fooled you."

Bruno forced a smile and said, "Those people won't think of that. Hurry up and leave. I'll draw a map for you. Go to the port and find a man named Apache. He will be responsible for sending you out. Don't waste time."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper and scribbled on it with a pen. At the same time, he took off the necklace, folded it, and handed it to Caesar.

Caesar hesitated for a moment, then reached out to take the wrapped map and necklace, and said hesitantly, "If I leave, what will you do?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Bruno chuckled and patted his chest, saying, "Once you leave, I will immediately move to another place. Those people are targeting you and will not care about a small thug like me."

Hearing what he said, Caesar felt relieved, so he nodded and said, "Okay, thank you for these few days, Bruno Frigo. If... If I can survive this time, I, Caesar, promise you that I will definitely repay your kindness in the future!"

"Ha, okay, then I'll have to wait." Bruno smiled, opened his arms to hug Caesar, and patted him on the back: "Let's go, don't delay!"

Caesar knew that time was running out and it would be dangerous for him to stay here, so he said goodbye without hesitation and went into the alley.

After watching Caesar leave, Bruno turned around, endured the pain, and hurriedly began to clean the house, mainly removing traces of Caesar and discarded bandages and the like.

At this moment, my heart began to beat inexplicably again, but this time it was even stronger.

It seemed as if something was stirring inside the body, and an ancient and solemn voice echoed in my mind, as if calling for something horrible.

Bruno accidentally dropped something on the ground, stumbled to the drawer, took out a mirror, and stared at the mirror.

His face was reflected in the mirror, but unlike usual, his veins and blood vessels were bulging and his expression looked extremely ferocious, but what frightened Bruno even more was that his eyes were tinged with gold, like boiling lava, revealing an indescribable aura of brutality.

"What the hell is this?!"

Bruno couldn't understand why he became like this.

But the cautious intuition he had cultivated since childhood seemed to tell him that these golden pupils exuded a strong sense of ominousness.

"No, we must leave as soon as possible!" Bruno was very uneasy, his heart was beating very fast, and he always felt that some danger was approaching.

After cleaning up all the things related to Caesar, he grabbed a few banknotes from under the bed, then hurriedly opened the door and left in another direction, completely opposite to Caesar.

Bruno grew up in this slum and has offended many important people, so it is impossible for him to have only one place to live.
