Superman of the American Comics

The next day, early in the morning.

Luke got up early from bed, finished washing, and continued his daily training to become bald and strong.

Push ups, squats, sit ups, sunbathing

After a series of processes, the pointer of the clock on the wall has slid to 8:20.

"Bucky should have boarded the ship..."

Luke closed the door and was ready to find Rogers.

They had planned to send Bucky, but Sergeant James Barnes, who was going to England, said he didn't want his friends to see the embarrassment of his weak legs.

I'm afraid the whole of New York last night was under fire.

With a straight military uniform and a few fancy words.

A young man with strong hormones can easily get a beautiful girl.

Perhaps this is the welfare of serving the motherland.

"Good morning, Luke!"

The florist downstairs looked enthusiastic and shouted, "Frank is looking for you. His temper looks a little bad!"

"I see! Thank you, uncle dahler!"

Luke stopped, changed direction and headed for Uncle Frank's house.

Probably yesterday's street gangster ran to complain to his boss, and then spread it to his uncle through the Irish gangster.

Ten minutes later, Luke skillfully took out the key from under the doormat and opened the door.

"Uncle Frank, I brought you aunt Bertha's roast mushrooms and potato pancakes!"

Carrying a steaming breakfast, Luke walked into the living room and saw an old man with gray hair and a bent waist.

Only from the appearance and figure, we can vaguely see the strong and strong shadow of youth.

"Luke! You annoying boy!"

When the old man saw Luke, he angrily scolded, "that sissy bastard Hobson ran to report to Mr. Hoffa and said you beat his little brother!"

"Hobson has to tell Mr. Hoffa about such things? Then why didn't he tell Mr. Hoffa that his mother died sitting on the toilet the other day?"

Luke pretended to be stunned and took out the plates, knives and forks in the cupboard without stopping.

"Eat while it's hot! Aunt Bertha added meat to the potato pancake!"

The old man named "Frank" sat at the table and said, "don't try to buy me off with this! Luke, you troublemaker bastard, the last Italian... Well, it's great! You're not tired of eating!"

Facts have proved that no one can escape the true fragrance law!

After Frank ate that breakfast, he never mentioned Hobson and his little brother again.

He mentioned more about getting Luke to join the fast-growing Irish gangs.

"Mr. Hoffa values you very much. The good idea of doing business with the barracks has enabled the gang to get some eliminated guns! Those Italians are not as arrogant as before!"

Frank wondered why his nephew refused to join the gang.

The idle Street gangsters in Brooklyn are eager to join the gangs and become cadres.

At least then no one will bully themselves again!

"I'm not interested! If I really want to be a gangster, I might as well go back to school!"

Luke made himself a cup of coffee and said faintly.

He knew that this was the most turbulent period in American history. As the newspaper said, "violence is like cherry sauce pie, which is a specialty of the United States".

Since the prohibition, various gangs have sprung up.

At first, they were mostly poor immigrant groups, such as Irish and Italian.

Unlike the British and Germans who brought a lot of money to develop North America, their so-called "immigration" is just a change of place to continue to be the bottom people.

Many people can't afford to rent a house and can only engage in the hardest and most tiring work.

The immigrant groups living together gradually formed slums.

Later, the famous "hell kitchen" in New York was born in this way.

As a sociologist said, poverty tends to breed nationalism.

Because the Irish and Italians are Catholics themselves, they are regarded as "barbarians" who cannot be assimilated in North America dominated by Christianity.

The ubiquitous exclusion and discrimination make the life of these immigrant groups very difficult.

Therefore, in order to fight against the exploitation of foremen and religious persecution, Irish and Italians spontaneously formed various violent groups.

This is the rudiment of American gangs!

At that time, gangs were just a group composed of poor people and were not taken seriously.

Until later, a special group called "city bosses" began to rise.

They are the "professions" that came into being after the rise of industrial society. Their main responsibilities are to raise campaign funds for party candidates and buy votes - that is, the "brokers" of later generations.

As we all know, the United States is a country of immigrants.

In the past, no one looked down on the low status, poor and poor immigrant groups.

However, the "city bosses" have keenly discovered their value, and the gangs formed by workers have gradually changed.

One accepts the shelter of interest groups and the other provides stable votes for politicians.

The two sides hit it off!

However, no one expected the follow-up development.

"Prohibition of alcohol" provides a lot of wealth for gangs, coupled with the rise of trade unions, the frequent occurrence of labor movements.

The monster of the gang finally tore open the cage of social law!

They hold enough wealth in one hand and win over politicians through votes in the other.

And cooperate with trade unions to obtain legal identity.

For a while, it developed rapidly!

Like Uncle Frank's Irish Gang, they have a deep relationship with Jimmy Hoffa, a senior member of the national truck drivers brotherhood.

The union represented nearly one million truck drivers and warehouse workers, and later reached 2.3 million members at its peak.

It can be said that if you run for mayor and congressman, you can get the help of the trade union, which is no different from declaring victory directly.

Gangs, trade unions and politicians constitute a strict interest chain.

"Unfortunately, this brilliance did not last long."

Luke thought silently.

Whether Irish or Italian.

Their power was at its height.

The former succeeded in making Kennedy president, and the latter had close contact with Edgar Hoover, the first director of the FBI.

However, gangs are only a deformed product of social unrest.

With the end of World War II, they will inevitably decline.

As a tool in the hands of politicians and interest groups, it is difficult to have the glory of the past.

"Marvel world mixed into a gangster boss has no future, even if Jin doesn't have that status!"

This is Luke's inner thought.

"What a high Luyuan bastard! I won't ask you to join the gang. I want you to be a truck driver and take over my seat in the future. Don't you want to be a war hero like this?"

Frank got angry when he saw Luke's indifferent face.

He had a good relationship with Jimmy Hoffa of the national brotherhood of truck drivers, so he couldn't brush his house. After retirement, he served as the honorary president of a branch of the trade union.

Although it's just a name, I can get a good salary every month.

If you say hello, the gang and Mr. Hoffa should take care of Luke.

"Uncle Frank, don't worry about this! Come on, cover the blanket!"

Luke did not retort, smiling and covering Frank's legs with a thick blanket.

If he followed the captain of the United States and joined the roaring commando, he might really be the honor of a war hero!

Unfortunately, even becoming a hero is still a tool and mascot in the hands of politicians and capitalists.

So Luke has another idea.
