I was acting crazy in North America, and all the crazy people there took it seriously.

Chapter 73 I, the Mafia, fight crime fiercely.
Chicago residents have little to say about the three attempted robberies, since they didn't cause any real loss. Some even seem to welcome more of these stupid thieves to add some fun to their lives.

However, one person had a strong opinion about this.

That was Al Capone, who aspired to transform Chicago into a "Gotham"-style holy city.

At this moment, Al Capone's mindset had long surpassed that of an ordinary gang leader who pursued territory and money.

The blueprint for "Gotham City" drawn up for him by the Dark Lord was like a magical vision, deeply imprinted in his mind.

In his vision, Chicago should be the headquarters of the world's heroes, an elegant crime capital!
Well, it's actually best to avoid crime altogether. After all, a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow. America is a vast and beautiful land, with New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Detroit... where can't heroes go and cause trouble?
There's no need to make your home a mess.

But if there is any crime, it should be sophisticated, controlled, and artistic, not low-level, disorganized, and purely disruptive street crimes!

Chicago needs to be a Chicago with a "high-end crime ecosystem," a legendary city that reflects its "godfather"-like dominance.

Therefore, he thought the "Heroes' List" created by the Irish in the north was really awesome!
Yes, Al Capone certainly knew that Donald wanted to become the "Godfather" of Chicago to challenge him, the chosen one—that "Arkham Heroes Academy" and the Sun's "Heroes List" clearly showed that the other party had also received the Dark Lord's revelation.

The Venerable One's intentions were beyond his comprehension, but Al Capone no longer considered the Irish as mortal enemies that had to be eliminated.

The Venerable One is right; he needs many Dark Knights to help him rule the underworld.

Donald? That's destined to be the dark knight under the command of the chosen one—Alcapon has a trump card to suppress him.

Now that he had already considered the other party as a future subordinate, Al Capone was also aware of the need to clean up his "subordinate's" messes.

Chicago is Chicago, a city destined to be a holy city of the underworld! Not a place where these Tom, Dick, and Harry can run rampant!

It's become a chaotic cesspool where anyone can get involved. Who would be willing to come here in the future?

“Therefore!” Al Capone ordered his men decisively, “From this moment on, we, the Mafia, will take responsibility for restoring order to Chicago! We will crack down hard on those lowlife criminals!”

"Let those petty thieves, robbers, extortionists, troublemakers, and troublemakers know that Chicago is not a place for them to make a living!"

When the Mafia bosses and their underlings heard this order, their first reaction was bewilderment.

Us? The Mafia? To fight criminals? To restore order?
This isn't our traditional business!

Boss, if the president threatens you, just say so... wait, boss, do you want to be president?
However, Al Capone, who was able to obtain large quantities of weapons and ammunition silently, was gaining increasing prestige within the Mafia, to the point that even his own brothers dared not question his orders.

After Al Capone took over, the Chicago Mafia became tightly organized and clearly structured.

The city has a headquarters, each district has a branch, and each street has a separate branch, all with dedicated personnel in charge.

Al Capone's words are a hundred times more effective than the police chief's!
Suddenly, an unprecedented spectacle appeared in Chicago's South Side, a place under the Mafia's influence—

Those thieves, robbers, violent criminals, and other "unofficial" criminals from the surrounding areas, or newly emerging local criminals without any connections, suddenly found themselves unable to make a living.

The "protectors" of this area, the Mafia thugs, no longer come to collect protection money with smiles, but instead hunt them down with menacing rage!
"Buddy, you've gotten yourself into trouble. Come with me!"

"Dude, where am I supposed to go?!"

"Police station!"

"?"

"No, buddy, I can pay the protection money! There's no need to scare me like this." "We in the Mafia have a code of honor. I won't take this money. Keep it, and then keep going!"

"??"

"What are they trying to do?! At least let us die knowing why!"

"The boss has spoken. From today onwards, the Mafia is cracking down on crime. You've got something to do, so go to jail!"

"???"

No, aren't you yourselves criminals?
However, the Mafia didn't even wait for them to protest before cramming them into their car and, like transporting cargo, taking them to the entrance of the Chicago Police Department to "unload" them!
Al Capone, having seemingly learned this from someone, always wanted to establish a reputation before doing anything, publishing a formal and solemn "Letter to All Chicago Citizens" in major Chicago newspapers:
“Recently, some low-life out-of-town criminals and local bums have attempted to create chaos and disrupt the order of our great city of Chicago. I, Al Capone, and the organization I represent, issue our strongest warning against this!”

"I hereby solemnly declare: Anyone who dares to commit theft, robbery, violent fighting, or other acts that harm the citizens of Chicago will be arrested without hesitation and handed over to the authorities!"

"We are committed to working with all the citizens of Chicago to build it into a holy city of outstanding people and talents! A great city that welcomes only true heroes and rejects only trash and waste!"

The Chicago newspapers that received the "Letter to Citizens" were all bewildered.

Did you Mafia members drink fake alcohol? You're even trying to steal the police's business?

The police were even more confused.

They saw the Mafia criminals they had arrested and recently released, laughing as they escorted batch after batch of unfamiliar "criminals" to the police station.

"Sir, please don't say I don't appreciate your kindness."

"Here you go, another performance bonus. This is the third batch of clueless bastards we caught today."

This guy even pulled out a rough "crime list": "This one is theft, that one is attempted robbery, and the one in the corner is trying to traffic drugs on our turf... Caught red-handed, you're welcome."

"..."

The police station received more criminals today than they had arrested in the entire previous month!

Moreover, more than half of them were based on conclusive evidence and could be put to trial immediately.

The Mafia is really professional at fighting crime... Ugh! No, have the Mafia gone mad?

Ordinary Chicago residents were equally bewildered.

Criminals actively fight against other criminals?

Are gangsters claiming they want to restore order to Chicago?

Are gangsters trying to turn Chicago into a "holy city"?
The most crucial point is... they're actually doing it?
Even Chicagoans who have seen all sorts of big events feel that the world is changing so fast that it's catching them off guard and so surreal that it's hard to keep up.

What is impossible in this world?
……

　What else is impossible? America says, "I don't know!"
