The Mission Begins

Ganglord: Rise of the Outsider

Chapter 1 - The Mission Begins

At present, South Korea is divided into more than ten regions, each controlled by a different gang. The country is on the verge of chaos, and in the shadows, a plan is forming—one that could change everything.

A young man named Daesung has just arrived in South Korea from India. But he isn’t here for studies or a better life. He has a secret mission—to unite the gangs under his rule.

Two Years Ago – India

Damanveer Singh—now known as Daesung—was walking home when a man suddenly blocked his path.

His sharp eyes, jet-black hair, and confident smirk instantly put Damanveer on edge. Tatsuya Yamazaki.

🔹 Tatsuya: "You're Damanveer Singh, huh?"

🔹 Damanveer: "Yeah. Who are you, and what do you want from me?"

🔹 Tatsuya: "I need you to unite South Korea."

Damanveer frowned. "What?"

🔹 Tatsuya: "I could do it myself, but the moment I make a move, the gang leaders will interfere. They'll never let me succeed. But you... you have the potential to take them down. I’ll train you for two years. Then, you’ll go to Korea and start the mission. Once you're there, I'll continue training you."

🔹 Damanveer: "Tch. Not interested."

🔹 Tatsuya: "If you refuse… I’ll kill you. And your family."

Damanveer clenched his fists. Who the hell does this guy think he is?

🔹 Damanveer: "Oh yeah? Try me."

Tatsuya barely smirked before throwing a punch—one that wasn’t even at full strength. Yet, in the next moment, pain exploded through Damanveer’s body, and his vision blurred. His legs wobbled as he barely remained conscious.

A single punch. That was all it took.

🔹 Damanveer’s thoughts: If I say no, he’ll kill me. But he said I have the potential to surpass him...

If that’s true, I’ll train under him, get stronger, and when the time comes… I’ll kill him myself.

With a deep breath, he looked up.

🔹 Damanveer: "...Fine. I'm in."

Tatsuya’s smirk widened.

🔹 Tatsuya: "Good. From now on, meet me every day after school. Your training begins now."

Present Day – South Korea

Daesung stepped off the plane, inhaling the unfamiliar air of South Korea. Two years of brutal training had led to this moment. The mission had begun.

With Tatsuya's connections, he was enrolled in Jay High School as a first-year student. But his first task wasn’t studying.

🔹 Daesung: "I need to recruit four guys from this school..."

Tatsuya had already given him their names:

🔹 Zack Lee.

🔹 Jaesung.

🔹 Eli.

🔹 Jisoo.

Daesung smirked to himself. Let’s see if they’re worth my time.
