Chapter-5 : Muahahahahahaaa!!!!

And as such, the hellish year for these guys started.

For starters, I used my conquers haki with my lightning to increase all their potentials to a good level.

They would now be able to achieve strength beyond human limits if they train enough.

The first thing they would do was increase their basic stats to acceptable levels before learning about haki. ie about 5× stronger than Cap'n Murica.

Then I would teach them the six arts, after they gain basic in all the six arts, they would start their haki.

For now, I was just relaxing as I watched the lot of them train with extreme difficulties.

For one, I had shocked there nervous system as such they that would need to focus their will 3 times to do the same level of work.

In a week or so, they adapted to that, then I packed their bodies with heavy metal alloys which doubled their weight.

And in just a weeks time, their bodies adapted to that too, even they themselves were shocked by their progress, their loyalty for me was turning into worship slowly.

At the end of two months into their training every one of them was at 'acceptable' level of strength, agility, dexterity, senses, defense and endurance.

While they were doing this, I was expanding the business like crazy, from street bars to big firms, I was buying everything thay could help me.

Of course there was some resistance, but it was all shut down when all the resistance found their legs broken in just one night.

I was devouring all the business, from lending money to laundering money, we did everything, of course no one really knew who the real player was all they had were just some speculations that were not even a mile close.

I was raking in millions a day, all of which was perfectly laundered and turned in towards my legitimate businesses.

My companies opened many more projects all over the city, now dealing in 5 stars hotels, resorts, heck, even an amusement park and a water park.

All these projects would be completed in 6 months max, almost quadrupling my legitimate income, and even twice the illegitimate ones.

All the small time gangs were contracted by me, went against the big ones, but this time with correct equipment and wiped them out.

Though 50% of them were lost at the hands of sups, not that I wanted to save them, they were all just scums anyway.

Crimewise, the city was now one of the lowest in the whole country.

I even spent about 13 million dollars on information gathering, putting spy cameras throughout the city, monitoring every single thing, especially the sups.

They thought they they avoided cameras, but the real ones got them.

I was now just collecting pile upon pile of evidence against sups, just right time was needed.

In the meanwhile I had left the main city, I was now residing in the outskirts of the city, controlling everything from there while spending my time playing games on my PC.

You see, I'm still only 22 years old.

I had some dreams in my previous life, dreams to get that Nvidia 3090 graphics card, to get my hands on that top of the line AMD gaming CPU, Ryzen 5950x, to play games on a machine that didn't lag even a single bit, had high frame rates, something only a true gamer would understand.

But those dreams were shattered by those scalpers and miners, who hogged all the silicon for themselves, leaving us gamers nothing.

[A/N : Only a true gamer would understand this]

That was what pushed me into being a merc, I was just 17 years old then, so I did what I think was right and fought for my cause.

Keeping that matter aside, yes, I played online games quite a bit.

And to enjoy the gaming, I set my senses and power to normal human levels, no cheating, gaming is a field that deserves full respect, you can cheat wherever the you want, but not there, that is an unacceptable sin.

So, I 'saw' my men training vigorously through my observation haki, they had grasped 3 of the six arts at least, give them a month more, and they would be ready for haki training.
