Silco in his office

Silco point of view

They are so stupid, all the other Underlords are insisting that we try working against these new visitors they seem to have forgotten what they're capable of. They killed Frankie with nothing more than a gesture of his hand imagine what they could do to us if we were to go against them. I don't even imagine what they're doing to jinx right now

Crime bosses: look if we all stand together we can beat these freaks we have shimmer

Sharika: yeah maybe we have that special kind of drug, but if they're anything like the kid I thought it's not gonna matter he destroyed me with no problems and according to the boss he took out an entire squad of shimmered people and he was holding back because he wasn't trying to kill anyone think about what they'll do

I nod, it seems like these people are capable of incredible things if I'd known earlier that they had taken Jameses place and what they were planning I might have been able to stand a chance but now with their numbers up all I can do is submit to their rule for now: she's right we won't stand a chance against them or need I remind you that Marcus gave me a report saying they attacked The other city and kidnapped two of The council members not only that they have them scared of already fled the city

The fools continue their pointless argument: you're only saying that because they have your daughter, but what's stopping us from walking up there and getting rid of all of them

I remind them: common sense think about it, if they're truly bringing back this grand commander that they are so fond of wouldn't it be better to make ourselves look like an ally than an enemy. They said it themselves we have nothing other than shimmer that they want once they're fully prepared so use that machine to go back to their world to invade once they're done they're authenticated they'll never return here and with the camera and structure of the city falling apart we can move in and take over it's finally happening the revolution we've always wanted

The idiots finally shut up as they look to each other and I can see it in their faces they agree with me however there is still one of them that refuses to back down: what difference does it make what if we're not here when they're finished, they've already stopped the production of shimmer from going out to our clients they're holding it all for themselves I hear they've even got a doctor trying to replicate it! How do we know that once they're finished they want to just come back and try to take over what is rightfully ours

Excellent point and I have thought about that, and I've already initiated a plan to prevent that: simple we destroy the machine and make sure that they don't have any of the crystals when they go through without the crystal they cannot come back and rest assured my friends we will get through this we just need to maintain a cool head

Sharika: He's right besides perhaps these other world is come provide something for us in exchange for our loyalty. I've heard rumours of them creating some sort of monsters and I personally want to see what they are. Apparently the doctor that you talked about how has been taking people from the oh and doing some weird experiments with them he's apparently giving them superpowers I don't know about all of you but I wanna piece of that

Another excellent why we should be working with these people and not trying to fight: you see we have more to gain by cooperating then we do by rebelling sure we will lose some money but I believe that what we stand to gain at the end is a much more valuable

The other crime bosses seemed content with my vision for the future as they leave my office I instruct Savikko to do the same because I have a visitor. Who jumps down from where Jinx usually is

Toga sits in the chair with her creepy smile as she plays with a knife: that was really good you kept the other bosses in control

I glare at her: I did what you asked and keeping them in control, you just end up your end of the bargain I want to make sure jinx is safe

Toga giggles: don't worry we're not turning into a monster anything is not even compatible without shimmer, I just wanted to come down and let you know that the endgame is starting which means my beloved is coming down to save the day but unfortunately we can't let him do that

She slams her knife on the table: so... We need you to make sure that he doesn't arrive in time. You also might want to advise people to stay out of some districts of the under city things could get messy

I lean back in my chair: so you want me to make sure collateral damage is kept to a minimum? Why?

The psycho girl placed a smile back on her face: because we wanna make sure that our friendly relationship continues, and we can't do that if people think we're a bunch of heartless monsters. So just tell people to be mindful of the situation and have some of your boys searching the town there's no telling where izuku Will pop up and if I understand correctly you'll be coming with that pink haired girl the one you want to keep away from your daughter might be beneficial to make sure that they never see each other

She then disappears from my office, and I'm left thinking. This is exactly what we always wanted these people didn't even haggle all I have to do is play my cards right and drinks will be returned safely and We will finally get what we always wanted brother The people of the under city finally realising our independence
