Starting as an inventor from Hunter x Hunter

Finks didn't want the same number plate either: "Number 5 is fine."

Neither of them chose the number 4 they drew; they both disliked it.

Thus, the initial membership number classification was determined in this way.

From smallest to largest, they are Nobunaga's A (1), Feitan's 2, Machi's 3, Phinks' 5, and Shalnark's 6.

Franklin's number 7, Pikenotta's number 9, and Uvogin's number 11.

Including Mog and Chrollo, there are exactly ten people.

However, apart from those ten...

"And there's Salazar and Sheila too."

Mog picked up the remaining playing cards with his other hand: "We'll wait until they come back and join us."

"Let them draw their own numbers again."

Thus, the Phantom Troupe's charter was initially established.

Mog also established rules for the members of the Phantom Troupe, which should now be called the Phantom Troupe:

"First of all, killing each other within the brigade is strictly prohibited; that's the most basic rule."

Mog said calmly, "Unless you formally choose to leave the group."

"If members disagree, they can decide whether to draw cards to determine red or black. The person who guesses wrong must unconditionally follow the decision of the person who guesses right."

In a deck of cards, apart from the two jokers, the other cards are diamonds (red) and clubs (black).

There are also hearts and spades, two colors that are opposites, red and black.

Guessing red or black offers two probabilities, making it a fair and just method.

"Then, the leader's orders take precedence, but the leader's life should not be put first. The leader is also a member of the Phantom Troupe. It is not a particular person who should live, but the Phantom Troupe itself."

Mog said, emphasizing directly without waiting for anyone to offer an opinion:

"If something happens to me one day..."

"You will be appointed as the new leader, Kuroro."

"In a deck of cards, once the King is removed, the Queen becomes the highest-ranking card."

"I think……"

Mog calmly looked into Kuroro's eyes: "You shouldn't disappoint me, Kuroro."

"Of course not, Commander."

Kuroro calmly responded in a soft voice:

“I will follow every instruction you give, including this one.”

The other Phantom Troupe members: "~~~~~~"

Well, since even the two bosses have said so, they naturally won't say anything more.

And the key point is that they all believe it.

Given Mog's strength, methods, and abilities, there's absolutely no way the unexpected thing he mentioned would happen.

Even if, hypothetically, something were to happen to Mog...

With its dual-king system, the Phantom Troupe can seamlessly switch roles at any time.

Under new leadership, the Phantom Troupe will continue on its path.

The dual-king system was also the last requirement Mog made for the Phantom Troupe:

"If I'm not around, then Kuroro is the commander of the Phantom Troupe, and everyone else must obey his orders unconditionally."

Mog continued, “Just like I said before, in a deck of cards, apart from the Joker, the Joker has the most influence.”

"At that time, Kuroro will be the sole commander."

"And if other members disagree with Kuroro, they don't need to follow the red and black card draw."

"The Joker card always has the highest priority."

Upon hearing this, Franklin, Pakunoda, and Chrollo, who had been following Kuroro for a long time, naturally had no objections.

Uvogin and Machi Nobunaga both watched Chrollo's voice acting performance in the church.

I admire and trust him quite a bit.

But Feitan and Phinks...

The two looked at each other.

Previously, the two of them mainly extorted money from Kuroro.

Although Kuroro later earned their approval through his actual performance.

But that only applies to Meteor City.

The person who helped them open their sperm pores and led them out of Meteor City to the outside world was Mog.

Mog helped them understand the life game of "Earth ONLine".

Moreover, he earned his first legal money outside, and experienced so many thrilling and exciting things.

It could be said that the only person they truly trust now is Mog.

Only Mog.

And they'll be under Chrollo's command when Mog isn't around.

Well, given that this was Mog's request, the two of them naturally obeyed unconditionally.

But they'll have to see if Kuroro can actually shoulder this responsibility and pressure.

Does the company truly possess the ability to lead them to a brighter future?

The two remained silent, offering no opinion.

But the more this happens, the more carefully they will observe what happens next.

Thus, after the general tone had been discussed and agreed upon.

The Phantom Troupe was formed at the end of 1986.

Inside this abandoned warehouse, no one cares.

And so, it was established quietly.

After its establishment, Mog remained calm and composed.

There was nothing particularly exciting or moving about it.

It was as if everything had been foreseen and was a natural progression.

However, compared to the original storyline, the characters and themes are quite different.

But if Mog really has some ideas...

That sole thought was:

"Now I understand why the Phantom Troupe always meets in abandoned buildings."

That will be the Phantom Troupe's meeting point in Yorknew City.

The facilities inside the abandoned building were exactly the same as the layout of the abandoned warehouse at this moment.

The group's main focus is on a habit and nostalgia.

But now, there's no time to dwell on the past.

Their most important task right now is...

"Find that Chairman of the 'Future of Children' Foundation, Lisnos, and make him and his foundation pay the price they deserve."

Mog looked at the members in front of him and issued the Phantom Troupe's first mission.

"It's time to send the voice of Meteor City out to the world."

Mog's calm voice echoed in the air above the abandoned warehouse:

"And this is also the mission of our group:"

"We don't reject anything, but don't try to take anything away from us!"

"Since he stole our dignity, he needs to pay a hefty price to repay it."

Mog looked around at the faces of the members of the troupe.

Everyone's expression was calm, as if nothing had happened.

Even~~~

They all felt that it should have been done a long time ago.

Crunch, crunch.

Finks clenched his fists tightly, producing a crisp cracking sound.

Feitan didn't say much, but a faint killing intent began to emanate from his body.

This is a tacit understanding that the two of them developed after more than a year of experience outside.

Franklin's face turned ashen, and the chivalrous knight-errant was no longer laughing and joking.

As for Paknoda, she had been waiting for this very sentence.

Machi remained expressionless, flicking the invisible thread in her hand as if testing its feel beforehand.

Nobunaga scratched his head with one hand while keeping the other firmly on the hilt of his katana at his waist.

None of the people reacted too aggressively, except for...

"I've been waiting for this day for so long, Commander!!!"

Uvogin's excited shouts echoed throughout the abandoned warehouse:

"I'm going to kill all those bastards!!!"

"I'm so excited right now!!"
