One Week Later...

Lee Soman convened a meeting with all the gangs under his command. The announcement was as stark as it was inevitable: the war against Park Changmin was about to begin. This battle would mark a new chapter in the brutal history between the two clans.

The atmosphere buzzed with tension as every member dove into their new tasks. Training was relentless, and preparations were in full swing. Weapons, medical supplies, and high-quality protective gear were secured, ensuring that every gang was well-equipped. Lee Soman knew that Park Changmin's clan was not just any mafia—this was one of Korea's most ruthless and powerful. He had once worn that same mantle, and now it was time to reclaim his lost honor. Failure was not an option; the safety of his family and his own survival depended on it.

On the other side of the conflict, Park Changmin was informed of the impending war with a grim satisfaction. He had waited years for this moment, his hunger for vengeance bubbling beneath the surface. The idea of finally having his chance to annihilate Lee Soman and his clan fueled his malevolent laughter.

At the Hybe Clan Headquarters...

Park Changmin sat in his opulent chair, his gaze sweeping over the assembly of his gang members. BTS, Seventeen, TXT, LESSARAFIM, and the crucial Enhypen gang were all present.

He puffed on his cigarette, letting the smoke curl around him as he spoke with a devilish grin. "Lee Soman has finally declared war. I've waited a long time for this. He should have been dead years ago, but he managed to disappear. He got lucky."

"But this time," he continued, his voice rising with intensity, "I will kill him with my own hands. No one else touches him. Understand?" His eyes burned with a cruel fire as he crushed the cigarette with a snarl.

"Yes, boss!" the room responded in unison.

"Park Sunghoon, come here!" The room's attention shifted to Sunghoon, who had been silent until now. He walked over to his father with a stiff, controlled demeanor.

"Yes, Dad?" Sunghoon kept his gaze down, suppressing the urge to lash out.

"Where is that girl?" Park Changmin's question made Sunghoon's heart skip a beat. He knew this topic would come up.

"She's with us. Don't worry," Sunghoon replied in a deep, steady voice.

"Good job! At least you're doing something right. I thought you'd fail to get Lee Soman, but he surrendered himself. How pathetic!" Park Changmin sneered.

"Hold on to that girl until we confront him. I want to kill her myself to make Lee Soman's life even more miserable. It's just a little prelude before the climax. Got it?" Park Changmin's tone was chillingly calm.

Sunghoon's heart pounded fiercely, and he clenched his fists. How dare he threaten her? He forced a small, tight-lipped smile.

"Yes, Dad, I understand."

"Good! I'm transferring 2 billion dollars to your account. Use it to buy your members some food," Park Changmin said with a smirk. "It's a little reward. If the plan succeeds, I'll give you everything you want."

"Thank you, Dad. I'll use it well," Sunghoon replied, his smile forced but respectful.

"Remember, the war starts in one week. Prepare everything you need, and I'll check in later," Park Changmin ordered as he stood up.
