Prologue: The Birth of the Underworld Empire (2025-2040)
The year is 2025. The world believes governments control everything-the economy, the military, the future. But behind closed doors, in the dark alleys of power, five of the most feared criminal organizations are about to change history.
The Mexican Cartels: Masters of drug trade, brutal executions, and corruption.
The Italian Mafia: The silent rulers of finance, politics, and organized crime in Europe.
The Russian Bratva: Arms dealers, cybercriminals, and cold-blooded killers.
The Yakuza: Discipline, honor, and ruthless control over Asia's underground economy.
The Indian Underworld: The ghosts of the past, now reborn, controlling businesses, elections, and entire cities.
For decades, they fought each other. But now, a visionary leader-a man known only as The Ghost-brings them together. He convinces them that crime should not be hidden in the shadows but should rule the world openly.
In 2026, the Global Criminal Network (GCN) is born. Not just an alliance-but a new world order.
Jaeyi's world shifted the day her father married Seulgi's mother, bringing an uninvited rival into her home. Seulgi, the quiet farmer's daughter with an unsettling brilliance, quickly became the only person who could challenge Jaeyi's place at the top. At first, it was just competition, but soon Jaeyi found herself watching too closely, noticing too much obsessing. Seulgi never seemed to care, always focused, always just out of reach. But Jaeyi wasn't sure how much longer she could stand being ignored.
