Naruto shrugged and turned to Shikamaru. Shikamaru said "Later." and with that Naruto followed him out of the mansion. Shikamaru turned left and entered the library. Naruto followed him and his eyes nearly fell out as he entered. The library was filled with collumn after collumn of books and there seemed to be several stories. Shikamru gestured for Naruto to follow him and they went up a spiral staircase. They walked up five stories until Shikamaru exited the staircase. Naruto followed him and saw a few collumns of books and a small room over to the side. Shikamaru walked to the door and pulled out a necklace with a key on it. He unlocked the door and they went inside. There were two regular tables inside and four collumns of books. Shikamry sighed and said "This room is reserved for Tsunade and her most loyal men." Naruto whistled and said "So, would that be you?" Shikamaru looked at him and said "No, I just know what all these books have to offer." Shikamaru sat down and Naruto sat across from him.
Shikamru looked bored and said "Now listen carefully, I have a lot to tell you.' Naruto nodded and Shikamaru continued. "As you know there are five major families that run New York. There are dozens of small gangs, but they can't compare to the families. The five main families are Celdrun obviously, Deltrik, Turrane, Stanni, and the Unisk family.
Now lets start with our family Celdrun. Were probaly the third largest family , but were one of the best. We have several legal sources of revenue and have all kinds of not so legal sources. We have a share in almost everything you name it. Gambling, drugs, alchohol, weapon shipment, and even prostitution. Our Don Damon is probaly the most feared and respected man. The main reason is that when he was younger he did it all and more. He fought and clawed his way to the top and he never was caught. The police don't even have traffic tickets on him. We currently have sixteen underbosses and Tsunade is probaly the most famous. Most of our territory is in the north, so this new ground were at here. If you haven't noticed already, most of the gangsters in our family are either Italian or Jappanese." Naruto thought about it and realized that nearly everyone he has met Kiba, Choji, Shikamaru, and Choza were all Japanese. Shikamru than continued "We don't just have territory in New York. We have crews in Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vancouver, and were working on Maine. The main reason were here is to gain land in Pensylvania."
Shikamaru stretched and than said "Now onto the Deltrik family. They are the second biggest family and the most diplomatic. When I say diplomatic, I mean they'll make an offer at any time. They could be about to kill you and say 'I'll make it painless if you tell me where so and so is'. I've ran into them a couple times and there pretty ignorant. Most of their people are Scotish and run guns through the lower gangs. They don't have many industry companies, they focus in the food buisness. We actually have dozens of industrial companies and constantly sell to them. Their Don Julian is a short ginger who's even bigger than Choji. He may not seem menacing and he really isn't. His underbosses are however. He has about thirty five ruthless underbosses who show no mercy. The only reason hes their Don is because his father was there previous leader and they respect tradition. The Turrane family isn't very big, but they specialize in one thing,+ prostitution. Their Don Edgar is sixty two and can still convince any young girl to work for him. Every outstanding singer, musician, artist, hell even teachers fall for him. He has seven underbosses, but they each own a lot of land. The family is mixed, but Edgar is French. Then theres the smallest family of all the Stanni.
The Stanni have only five underbosses, but have the best political and police ties. The Don Julian is a retired senator. He alone probaly has more money than all the other gangs combined. The Strannie owns most of the shipping lanes and legal sources of revenue. They usually don't do dirty work and pay small gangs for fighting. There runnig out of people to pay thanks to the Unisk and us. That leads me too the Unisk then. The Unisk family are from Russia and they are the biggest family. They don't have many legal buisnesses, but they make most of their money selling black market vodka. The Don Ramsy is a man to fear. Not much is known about him, except that he himself kills at least five people every week.
He has about forty underbosses in America and the rest are still in Russia. Each family has their own emblem and that is how you recgonize who is working for who. Our emblem is the black raven." As Shikamaru said this he pulled down his sleeve and Naruto saw a black raven on his wrist.
Shikamaru pulled his sleeve back up and continued "Now we get to the gangsters who work for us. Gangsters usually hang out in a hideout somewhere in a neighberhood, or they stay in the guest house. Since we haven't constructed any hideouts yet we only have a few men. There are different classes of men and what they're good at. We'll first start off with the goons.
There basically nobodies who fight for a buck or two. They don't have much experience or weapons training, but if you get a lot of them they can get the job done. The thugs are next. Thugs are usually guys are size who know how to use a knife or gun. There are couriers also. They can't do much in a fight, but with the right training they can pick up anything the enemy may has dropped or lost. The couriers usually use motorcycles or regular old bikes. Theres bruisers, which are people like "The Snake". They can turn the tide in any battle. There are the arsonists too.
The arsonists are guys who can throw a moltov in the right place and get out quick. Then we have tommy guners. They basically stick to the car and their thompson machine guns. Next we have the demolition men. These are guys who can make a bomb out of cleaning products, we use them to blow up cars or set traps. Then there are the street lords. These are guys who can lead a group of guys into victory. We're basically those guys, except we have more responsibility. The most expensive and valuable are the profensionals. They can do anything from sniping someone from two buildings away, to slitting a persons throat ear to ear."
Shikamaru stood up and said "That's basically all the men we and our opponetts use." Shikamaru moved over towards the window and motioned Naruto over. Shikamaru then said "These are the buildings that every succesful gangster needs access to. Look at the garage. One day you could just be putting your cadillac out from the snow, and another you could have just brought back millions of dollars you stole from a bank. Now are you gonna just leave that lying on the ground? Ofcourse not, you put it in the warehouse. Now where are the guys who protect you and the money gonna live? The guest house of course. Now where are they gonna get weapons to defend this place? The armory next to the guest house. What happens if they need to repair their weapon, or if they need a bomb? They go to the work shop next to the garage." With that Shikamru moved toward the door. "Remember what I told you." Shikamru said "It will save your life."
