"It is not me who should survive, but the entire Phantom Troupe! Never forget that!"
This was the tone that Chrollo set for the Phantom Troupe from the very beginning.
He hoped that after his death, there would always be members who could stand up for him.
He will succeed him as the new leader of the Phantom Troupe and lead the Phantom Troupe on its journey.
Kuroro's thinking was spot on, and he himself believed it and resolutely followed this rule.
Unfortunately, Kuroro overlooked one thing.
That is, a spider is a whole entity that operates using a brain.
If the brain dies, can the other limbs still move?
If the spider is used as a metaphor...
So what if something really happens to him, the leader of the group?
Contrary to Chrollo's belief, the entire Phantom Troupe would not have any member step forward to take his place.
Become the new leader and lead your companions on the journey.
Instead, it will immediately fall apart.
Humans are ultimately emotional beings, with things they care about.
Even the most cold-blooded and ruthless person still has a human side.
So, in a sense...
In order to prevent the Phantom Troupe from truly collapsing, the original story takes place in Yorknew City.
Nobunaga and Machi's desperate attempt to save Chrollo was the right thing to do.
Those who were the initial members carried out Kuroro's will and respected his instructions and ideas.
Feitan and Shalnark understand perfectly what Kuroro wants and what he wants to do.
Their immediate thought of killing the enemy, without caring about the commander's life or death, was also correct.
The more they do this, the more they show respect for the rules set by Kuroro.
It's also out of respect for Chrollo, the leader of the group!
Therefore, Mog intends to eliminate this problem from the very beginning.
He does not intend to use a spider as the symbol of the Phantom Troupe.
This also marked the beginning of his real changes to the Phantom Troupe.
"Playing cards have numbers 2 through 10, and then letters J, K, A, making a total of thirteen."
Mog explained calmly.
The normal card number types in a deck of cards correspond exactly to the original thirteen spider numbers of the Phantom Troupe.
Even the numbers are about the same.
The only change, of course, is that playing cards are different from a spider with twelve legs and a brain.
There were two extra Joker cards.
Chapter 101 The Phantom Troupe's Dual King System! Everyone's Number! The Codes on Playing Cards!
Joker represents the wild card, but it also means the two jokers.
The presence of both the Grand King and the Grand King within the Phantom Troupe makes Mog's intentions all too clear.
"I think the Jokers in a deck of cards perfectly represent me and Kuroro."
Mog smiled as he watched Kuroro raise his head, seemingly wanting to say something.
He immediately made a feint and pressed down on him.
"What do you think?"
Aside from Kuroro, who wanted to say something, no one had any objections.
Kuroro had long since earned everyone's recognition through his talent and abilities.
No one had any objections to him and Mog becoming the Jokers in their Phantom Troupe.
As for who is the king and who is the prince...
No one would deliberately ask such a stupid question.
"Very good, passed unanimously."
Mog smiled happily, and then glanced at Kuroro.
The latter could only respond with a smile and a shrug.
He accepted this as well.
There were no further issues after that.
After the Jokers are determined, the remaining thirteen cards are the poker cards.
From 2 to 10, plus J KA.
In playing cards, J, K correspond to the page, queen, and king, respectively.
Nobody is interested in these three meanings.
"I want the biggest number."
Uvogin casually declared, "I want number 10!!"
This time, he didn't choose number 11 again.
Meanwhile, everyone else began to claim their own numbers.
"I want number 2."
Feitan said in a low voice.
He chose the very first number.
"Then which number should I choose..."
Finks was deep in thought.
If you're unsure...
Mog turned around and pulled out a deck of cards.
Why not leave the number you're burdened with to fate?
Using the playing cards you draw to determine your number is simply perfect.
No one else objected, and they all took turns going up to draw a ticket.
"number 7."
Franklin looked at the number seven on it, finished speaking, and then silently put it away.
"Ah, mine is number 6!!"
The knight glanced at his cards, then twirled them between his fingers.
"That's a good number!!"
He also quite liked this number.
However, when he turned to look at Paknotta beside him:
"Huh? Pike, you're number 6 too?!"
He exclaimed playfully, "Our numbers are exactly the same!!"
"It's different~~~"
Paknotta glanced at him. "Mine is number 9."
"Although we look very similar, our numbers are different when they are reversed."
"You should be able to tell too, right?"
"We've been discovered~~~"
The knight-errant grinned, showing no embarrassment or awkwardness at being exposed.
"But who knows, maybe someone actually drew the same number~~~"
Nobunaga, who was standing to the side, casually said something, and then drew a card from the deck of cards.
是A
Nobunaga: "~~~~~~"
"I think it's better to call it number 1."
He chuckled and said, "Let's make it that way."
Nobody cared about his arbitrary modifications because...
"it turns out……"
Finks stared wide-eyed at Machi and the number plate that matched the one in his hand.
"There really is one like it?!"
Under the watchful eyes of those around them, it became clear that both of them were holding numbered 4 playing cards!
"See, I told you I'd run into him."
The knight-errant beside him laughed even more heartily.
He simply enjoys watching a spectacle and doesn't mind making things worse.
"If they're the same, then we might as well not choose either of them."
Machi glanced at the other people's numbers: "I want the first digit of the number 4, so number 3 will be fine."
No one had drawn number 3 yet, so she chose it.
"Then I'll take the one after 4."
