Japan, Tokyo.
When the news that Wu would replace Li San in the duel came, the Guandong Association immediately organized a meeting.
Besides the Guandong Association, the Black Dragon Group, Fengshan Association, and three other Extreme Organizations participated in this meeting.
This duel between the Guandong Association and Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall involved a total bet of six hundred million US Dollars, as well as many businesses of both sides, covering a vast spectrum of interests. More importantly, victory in the duel would offer a chance to consolidate a footing in the United States, which was very tempting to these Extreme Organizations in Japan.
The Guandong Association had previously established a branch in New York but was so pressured by Hongmen Zhiyuan Hall that they left in low spirits. As a result, the Chairman of the Guandong Association reached out to four other Extreme Organizations to make a joint move into the United States.
