Masks are a must to protect privacy, which is the basic rule in Violent Zone. However, at this time there was even an executive who took off his mask freely. And as soon as the mask was removed, there was a huge scar on his right eye. Which even made the next blind.
Leon and Chelsea were still speechless in shock at the scar on Mr Tiger's face. Moreover, the two of them were also confused as to what kind of reason made this executive unmask in front of them.
"Mr Tiger, why take off your mask in front of us?" chelsea asked with an awkward expression. He still felt a little goosebumps when he saw the scar on Mr. Tiger's face.
"I did what you wanted. You said you wanted proof of whether I was your brother's ex-boyfriend or not. So this is the proof, this wound I got 10 years ago when I was William Adinata's man" explained Mr Tiger with a cold look on his face.
Chelsea frowned, then said, "If you're really my brother's ex, where have you been? I'm looking into the case of Liam's death, looking around for all the acquaintances of my brother who are also in contact with Violent Zone. But my search was completely fruitless, which I knew if all my former brothers had been slaughtered."
"Huh, where did you say? Of course my friends and I are looking for a place to survive. But what you said wasn't entirely wrong. If 10 years ago, former Boss William's men still had a few left. But now, only I am left," said Mr Tiger with a bowed face. It was as if he was feeling sad over the passing of his former comrades.
Instead of getting down to feel concerned, Chelsea actually put more suspicion on Mr Tiger. "Only you are left? Isn't this very suspicious? I'm here to find out the truth about my brother's death, not to hear your bullshit."
Mr. Tiger grinned and laughed cynically. "Haha .. shit, meeting someone like you is hard to handle. Looks like I need to explain everything and then you'll believe everything that's happening right now."
"That's why I came here. Because I want to get answers about everything!" chelsea are impatient. He was really wary, worried that Mr. Tiger was also one of the people Nisa had prepared in the scenario to influence his mind.
Mr. Tiger took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I will tell you everything, after all I was just told by the chairman to make you understand. About Violent Zone as I know it, this business was secretly built 10 years ago by William Adinata. Formerly, Violent Zone was not immediately famous and became this big. Because the Violent Zone used to be just a wild fight held underground."
"The rules are also not as restrictive as they are now. In the past the fighters who followed the fight were mostly people who had financial problems. They come with the goal of earning money if they win the fight. Eventually Violent Zone became more widely known. And Boss William Adinata, he also gained advantage and power through this."
"The audience who originally only came from among gambling and fighting enthusiasts, increasingly went up to class to become rich people, the, because Boss William introduced the Violent Zone he managed to his friends who are also from the conglomerate. Until the arrival of the Violent Zone at the first successful time. The money earned from the benefits of being able to buy a yacht, even though the yacht could not be said to be as luxurious as this yacht."
"Not even half a year of Violent Zone operating on a cruise ship, the disaster occurred. It all started because we had offended the wrong person" replied Mr Tiger, whose countenance became more and more mellow. Although it has been a long time, bad memories 10 years ago are so imprinted on him, both physically and mentally.
"The wrong guy? Who'sis that? Is that a girl?" asked Chelsea in curiosity. He immediately guessed that Nisa was the reason behind all this.
"No, what we alluded to was a young man who was not even 20 years old. We have absolutely no idea why he could have a problem with Boss William. But, Boss William knew that he had the potential to fight. Boss William deployed many people to capture him, then eventually took him to the ship and forced him to participate in the great Violent Zone tournament."
"...." - ".Leon was still speechless, silently clenching his hands together as tightly as possible. Because he knew, the person that Mr Tiger was talking about was Dika, someone he already considered an elder sister and currently heads the 2nd Division.
I think, after noticing Mr. Tiger's way of speaking. It seemed like she still did not know if the person she had offended and caught was Dika's sister. Mr. Tiger only has an executive position in one business, if only he knew that the person he had offended was the Head of Division 2, he might be directly exposed.
But never mind, I'll keep paying attention. I'll only talk when the time is right.
Mr. Tiger continued speaking. "Instead of us, the young man was so tough and managed to survive after several weeks of fighting. Even he qualified to participate in the life and death tournament, which would be far more cruel and inhumane. This life-and-death tournament is something big, but ..we were off guard and made a mistake."
"The date of the tournament was leaked, and at the time of the peak night that coincided with the night of the new year. Our yacht is getting a sneak attack from an unknown party. But we were too late to notice their arrival. The VIP guests are already present and the tournament event has already begun."
"Until we realized an awkwardness, that's when that tough young man disappeared from his cell. He was the only one who did not appear above the fighting arena. Then ... suddenly there was a continuous explosive sound and it came from all directions. The VIP guests instantly panicked, everything running around unclear. Wanting to escape also could not, because the emergency lifeboats we had prepared were also many that had been damaged."
"I was serving as a team of bodyguards at the time, but my fate was also unlucky. Many of the team of bodyguards were downed because of the attack. They were not many, but they managed to overwhelm us. And just then, I accidentally ran into a girl who had been dragging down the unconscious Boss William. I was as strong as I could fight him, but when I faced off, it turned out I lost."
"Wait a minute! Who is that girl?! Do you know him?!" cut Chelsea while Mr Tiger is still drifting in his past stories.
"I don't recognize him. But he was so cruel, he didn't just leave a scar that left this one of my eyes permanently blind. Even he still stabbed me even though I collapsed. Before fainting, I could faintly see a mark on his shoulder. There's a yin-yang symbol tattoo there. Those are the most defining features in my memory. Because of that pain, I thought I would die soon. With all the power I had, I pulled out my phone and managed to take a picture. Hope in the future there will be revenge after finding my phone."
"Image?! Where is that picture now?! Please show me that picture!" chelsea Pinta with great hope. If she could see the picture, then she could clearly tell if it was Nisa who had indeed killed her brother.
"Can't, 10 years ago the type of phone is not as sophisticated as it is now. The phone is an old model that is out of date. But I'm not stupid, before I threw the phone away to erase my tracks, I had already printed the photo first" Tiger explained in a haughty tone. He was arrogant just because he felt a little clever.
"Then show me the printed photo!" chelsea who almost lost patience.
Mr Tiger then threw a sideways look. "Ehmm .. Sorry, unfortunately the photo is no longer in my hands."
"What's? How can you remove such an important thing?!" chelsea was full of anger.
"Hey, why are you scolding me? It's entirely my right to give that photo to whom. After all I gave the photo to one of the VIPs, I just gave it away because it felt bad. You see...the girl in the photo turned out to be his wife, where do I have the guts to keep a picture of someone's wife? What's more ... in the photo, he appears to be wearing only a singlet top" replied Mr Tiger who was seeking a plea.
"Wife? Is the VIP you mean Keyran Kartawijaya?!" chelsea asked with a sharp look.
Mr. Tiger flinched. "Eh?! How the hell did you know? Are you a psychic? Or fortune-teller?"
"Damn, so that's true .... It turns out that Nisa Sania Siwidharma is the mastermind behind all this! Ck, it's just that the demonic woman has not gotten the world's karma she deserves, it turns out that Keyran is protecting her! Just watch out for you, I will definitely avenge you!" chelsea said with a slightly shaky body, it was clear that he was so angry.
"Chel ...." Leon was about to speak, but he clenched his mouth back. He wanted to explain that Nisa was not the real killer, and suddenly Leon abandoned his intentions due to vague feelings of doubt.
"Hey, I suggest not to mention the name Nisa Sania Siwidharma while cursing again. He is an honorable man, he is protected by Mr Oni directly" Mr Tiger said in a soft voice.
"Who else is Mr Oni?" ask Chelsea in a sharp tone. He still couldn't dispel his frustration.
"Mr Oni is our new boss" replied Mr Tiger.
Chelsea fell silent for a moment, starting to feel interested to get more information. "New boss? Continue your story! I want to understand everything completely!"
"Then ...?" ask Chelsea who still want to listen again.
"What else? Of course they fled with a speed boat that they brought themselves. While the yacht that burns, only has one end, which is sinking. Many of the VIP guests and the escort team were killed. And the only survivors who had good luck and who could survive on the wreckage of the ship. And the next day, all the remaining men, we get word that Boss William has been killed by murder."
"You're right, my brother was found dead in a terrible state. On his body were wounds of places and also many scars by blunt objects. It looks like my brother was tortured to death by the nine of them" Chelsea said with his head bowed.
Shit, it turns out like this is the truth. 9 perpetrators who killed my brother, they are the 9 demon incarnate Family! And this means, the person who had problems with her sister was one of the Family, it was appropriate that Nisa and her group intervened. Even though he wanted revenge, why would he have to carry out such a massive massacre? And why did they have to kill my brother?
"The death of Boss William is also a deep sorrow for us. Our boss and our business are destroyed. Since we knew that Boss William was the young master of the Adinata family, we had bargained with the Adinata family, but the Adinata family wanted to get rid of us completely. Even the ones that disappointed us, could-usually take revenge for granted and lie that Boss William died in an accident! It's really unfair to us!" chirp Mr Tiger with a look of annoyance.
"It's not fair you say? You're the only one who doesn't understand how our Adinata family is doing first! We also received a big blow when Liam's brother was killed. My father decided to cover up the case so that the existence of the Violent Zone would not be smelled by the police. And again, since my brother is the main owner, we have also compensated you a large amount. But now, you're not using that compensation fund well and are instead misappropriating that fund. Even now it is also underestimating our Adinata family! What's more you, now you're siding with the man who killed my brother, you traitor!" chelsea also feel upset.
Mr Tiger sneered cynically. "Heh, traitor you say? You Adinata family who dumped us! You think giving that compensation is enough? Just so you know, for us the compensation fund is not needed! All we need is capital! Capital to build Violent Zone business back!"
"Building Violent Zone back? You guys have not been kapok as well, ya~" said Chelsea in a satirical tone.
"You won't understand if you're not in our position" rebutted Mr Tiger with a dismissive smile. "Me and my colleagues, we are all the scum of society that is not accepted in the world out there. Wanting to start a normal life doesn't suit us either. And again ... Most of us live alone, so the name of the compensation is not very useful for us. What we need is capital, because we want this business to restart, so that the money will continue to spin and multiply."
"That was a time when we were down. Until the arrival of Mr Oni who wants to work with us. He is willing to give us abundant capital, new yachts, and adequate weapons. However, he also had a condition, so that he would determine the rules and systems in this new Violent Zone. Of course we all accept it. When will this opportunity come?"
"If your new boss is Mr. Oni. Why is this business still called Violent Zone? This name was my name when I had my brother. Is Mr Oni not a creative person?" ask Chelsea again.
"It's not a creative issue or not. But the name Violent Zone already had high popularity, people were also more familiar with this name. After all, your Adinata family has also decided not to become the manager of this business anymore. So our new boss took over everything from this business."
"Then? How does Nisa Sania Siwidharma relate to Mr Oni you said earlier?" asked Chelsea in curiosity. He was so eager to know everything that was related to Nisa.
"The devil's incarnate girl .. came again before us. He threatened to kill us all and burn the yacht again if we still dared to offend his friend. He came alone to our headquarters which was near the port, even then he was still wearing a school uniform. We were so dark in the eyes and thirsting for revenge, so the remaining of us came forward together to attack him, seeking revenge for Boss William."
"However, the girl has not been able to move and defend herself. Suddenly Mr Oni came and attacked us all. He stressed to us that the girl is a person we should respect. At that time we all realized that we had entered into a trap. Paying homage to someone who had previously killed our boss, it deeply hurt our self-esteem. However, we were so weak as to be able to subvert Mr Oni."
"In the end we made a pact with that girl named Nisa Sania Siwidharma. We are not allowed to give any information about the death of William Adinata to anyone else. If we break, then Mr Oni will intervene and kill us all. The girl also said she would always watch over us through Mr Oni's intermediary."
"We all agreed, because at that time we thought we could still borrow someone else's hand for revenge. That is through the hands of VIP families, because VIP guests who died on New Year's Eve were mostly Chinese conglomerates. They're notorious for their revenge, so we're secretly feeding them information about who set the ship on fire. They told us that they had sent assassins to hunt down the 9 men. But, in fact, the girl is still alive today and actually became the wife of the prospective heir to the famous conglomerate in this country."
"Haiss ..he seems to have many lives. I don't know what the background is. This is the same as selling ourselves to our enemies. Violent Zone led by Mr Oni continues to grow, and made the executive ranks of the 12 Shio. That number suits me and my friends, and in the end .. only I survive."
"My friends died fighting Mr Oni because they felt insulted. The man who destroyed our business and killed our bosses, now we're part of them. Even though I had a little resistance at the time as well, somehow Mr Oni let me live. And over time I realized, Mr. Oni wants to give me mental torture and make me kill myself!"
"Mental torture?" asked Chelsea in curiosity.
"Yes, mental torture! I was given a disgusting room filled with tiger-like features like this! Even I don't know the other 12 Shios at all. Every day I wonder if there will be a tomorrow for me. As long as you know, here I lack women, and worse than that, I have not stepped on land for 3 years. All I can do is think positively, just remember that I'm rich!"
"Ohh .." said Chelsea in an awkward tone. Then looking at Leon, they both just found out if this tacky room was not pure Mr. Tiger's desire.
Mr. Tiger let out a deep breath and said, "Everything I told you earlier is all you should know. In essence, the current Violet Zone with the former had different rules. That's why the chairman arranged all this, so you can believe, he ordered Foxy to explain the new rules. Then tell me to explain the old Violent Zone rule."
"Hey, if it's true that the chairman told you to. Do you know who the chairman is?" ask Leon who finally spoke.
"Chairman? Of course the Chairman is the Head of Division 1!" replied Mr Tiger straightforwardly, but made Chelsea and Leon sigh.
"Haha, I'm so sorry about you. Even though you've been with him for a long time, it turns out you don't know what the real chairman looks like. The real leader is a woman, she is Nisa Sania Siwidharma whom you told me about!" chelsea said with a look of disdain.
Mr. Tiger gasped. "Eh?! Are you serious?! If what you say is true ... Then why would the chairman even want me to tell him his own rottenness?"
"I'm serious, and there's no reason for me to lie to you. And thanks for all the information you gave me, now I'm sure you're not lying because in fact you're also the doll Nisa arranged for me!"
"What kind of conflict do you have with the chief?!"
"Gosh, it turns out you survived this stupidity you had. The conflict between me and him that you've been telling me about! It was about my brother's death! I came here to take revenge on him!" Chelsea Benthic.
"Hiyyy .. Then take revenge elsewhere! Not on this ship! You're a madman! Don't drag me, the chairman could've sunk this ship to clean you up! You will lose anyway! So let's just avenge your brother's death!" shouted Mr. Tiger who was already feeling goosebumps. He was really scared at the thought of going through a tragedy inside the ship again.
"Ikhlas said?! How can I be sincere?! My brother died unjustly! He only holds one family! But he was tortured to death by those 9 demons! Anyway my resolve is round! I won't stop until I kill Nisa with my own hands! I'm sure that demon lady killed my brother!" chelsea said full of anger, even his neck veins to be seen.
"...." - ".Leon was silent, he felt inexhaustible if Chelsea still had such a strong determination, despite having heard the explanation of his brother's dirty deeds. He thought, maybe it was time for him to use the last prepared way.
"Mr Tiger, I don't think your explanation is finished. You haven't explained everything about the previous Violent Zone to us" said Leon who immediately shocked Chelsea.
"Who are you? You're not a survivor of that ship's disaster! What I've explained is everything!" protest Mr Tiger.
"Then ...." Leon suddenly took out an object from his pocket. "How do you explain this?"
"It-it ...." Just so bad Mr. Tiger is sweating coldly.
