Without a moment's delay, the gangsters lunged at Sofia, their movements orchestrated with precision, each step calculated to subdue and extract information from her.

In response, Sofia countered their aggression with measured resistance, her actions deliberate and calculated.

Despite the intensity of the situation, she maintained a composed demeanor, unwilling to escalate the confrontation to a deadly level over what she perceived as a minor disagreement.

As tension filled the air, one of the younger gangsters boldly stepped forward, his eyes fixed on Sofia.

With a respectful nod from the boss, he gained permission for a solo showdown.

The gangsters around them obediently stepped back, creating a circle for Aaron to face Sofia head-on.

Eager to unravel the mystery of Sofia's combat prowess, Aaron eagerly accepted the challenge, his anticipation evident in his stance.

With each movement, he sought to gauge her skill, his curiosity driving him forward.

Despite his youthful appearance, Aaron had carved out a reputation among the gang for his remarkable fighting ability.

As the clash between Sofia and Aaron unfolded, their movements fluid and precise, a sense of mutual admiration filled the air.

In the brief pauses between strikes, their eyes met, silently acknowledging each other's strength and determination.

""Sofia, you're quite skilled," Aaron remarked, his chest swelling with pride as he acknowledged her abilities. "But I still believe I have what it takes to best you."

However, as Sofia's demeanor shifted to a more serious stance, Aaron soon found himself struggling to match her intensity, eventually succumbing to defeat at her hands.

The other gangsters looked on in astonishment as Sofia emerged triumphant, her victory over their esteemed comrade leaving them dumbfounded.

In a bold move, Sofia proposed that they all attack her simultaneously to expedite the process. This suggestion stirred up resentment among the gangsters, who bristled at the idea of being challenged by a woman.

Despite their reluctance, they launched a coordinated assault on Sofia, only to be met with swift and precise counterattacks that left them scrambling to defend themselves.

Recognizing the effectiveness of their teamwork, Sofia had a revelation: she desired to carve out her own path in the underworld, leading a formidable team of her own creation.

With newfound determination fueling her actions, she continued to fight with unwavering resolve until the gangsters lay defeated, though not seriously injured, as they looked on the surface .

Sofia's voice cut through the tense atmosphere like a knife. "Will you follow me as your leader, or do you prefer meeting your end?" she demanded, her tone authoritative and menacing.

She wanted them to accept her as their leader willing , rather than forcing them so she gave them a chance to save themselves.

The gangsters remained resolute. "We'd rather face death than betray our boss," they declared, their loyalty unwavering.

Sofia then suggested that she can save their master, causing a moment of hesitation among the gangsters torn between their allegiance and their own survival instincts.

After a pause, Aaron spoke up on behalf of the group. "We'll accept you as our new leader if you save our master," he conceded, representing the gangsters' decision.

Sofia wasted no time. She retrieved her acupuncture tools and began treating the injured Kab, earning their respect despite their initial doubts about her medical skills.

After fifteen tense minutes of treatment, Sofia removed the needles from Kab's body and delivered the news. "He'll wake up in an hour," she announced, her tone authoritative. "Prepare to transport him to our base in the capital."

Though still skeptical, the gangsters recognized Sofia's authority and complied, starting the journey to their base with Kab in tow.
