The next destination was New York. While it had suffered damage in the initial stages of the war, it hadn't been as significant as in the other cities. Thus, all the defenders had ended up moving their HQs there in order to stay cohesive. Their defensive formation was effective, but it led to unspeakable carnage. Every mobster whose name was unaccounted for would be shot on sight in the Big Apple. Brooklyn, known for its vast and world-renowned culture, had also been changed into a makeshift gulag with Vladimir as the sole prisoner.

At least there were no hostiles here, but the city still needed people to clean it up. Due to its post-war desolation, twigs had been in contact with people from other cities. After some negotiations spearheaded by Dmitry, Zev_Schwartz had agreed to lead the rebuild Brooklyn and Manhattan. In the Bronx, Sunrise was eager to show his ability as a crew leader.

"I am glad to announce the plans for New York. Zev has had dinner with some of the West Coast leadership a few nights ago to discuss the new direction of the City. What does Zev have to do with New York, you wonder? Well.. After a nice conversation, Zev has agreed to take control of the criminal enterprises of Brooklyn and will assume the position of city head. Additionally, he will gain control of Manhattan. We thank him for providing refuge for still-innocent mobsters.

At the same time, Sunrise has been yearning for a chance to show his worth to our world. We have given him the chance to demonstrate his ambitions in Bronx, were he will have full and independent control. It is our explicit wish that Zev and Sunrise develops a peaceful relationship of co-existence and cooperation."

After finishing his speech in New York, twigs was exhausted. He decided to call on his friend Giorgio-Esposito to finish the job and visit Philadelphia himself.
