Marvel: Impregnation System

Chapter 11: Chapter 11: Five Years Info Dump

September 1st 1932,

"Slick, it's never gonna happen." Edward scoffed with crossed arms while sitting in the back seat of the car.

"He isn't called Slick for nothing, a fiver says Slick pulls it off." Rocco held up five dollars as Jake chuckled.

"I got ten on Slick." Jake held up a ten dollar bill as Edward shook his head and pulled out fifteen bucks.

"Alright Slick, let's see if you got what it takes to bag the original Doll, Dolly Henderson." Edward reached and slapped fifteen dollars onto the dash of the expensive Cadillac V-16.

"Prepare to lose your money, Moose." Ricky smirked as he held up a bouquet of yellow flowers.

Stepping out of the car, his teenage appearance flared as he had grown from a mere 4'5 to a solid 5' 8 with room still to grow.

Over the past five years, Ricky's life intertwined deeply with the Underworld, as he became fully integrated into its operations.

The Luciano Family, having profited immensely from Prohibition, expanded their wealth and diversified their revenue streams, delving into both legitimate and illicit activities.

The illegal operations primarily involved the smuggling of rum and other alcoholic beverages.

However, Lucky Luciano gradually extended their ventures to include drugs, loansharking, racketeering, and gun trafficking.

On the surface, Lucky meticulously developed legal fronts that served as facades for their illicit activities, such as labor unions, which proved to be gold mines.

Lucky dedicated countless hours and relentless effort to seize control of the unions, most notably the Teamsters.

This strategic move granted him influence over the Manhattan waterfront, garbage hauling, construction, garment district businesses, and trucking, solidifying his grip on power and expanding his empire into both clean and dirty money territories.

Lucky Luciano struck a deal with the original head of the union to "take care of" any competitors challenging the current president of the Teamsters union, securing a share of the union's profits and establishing his first "legitimate" business venture.

Cornelius Shea, the man working closely with Ricky's adoptive father, was an undeniably cheerful figure.

Ricky had met him numerous times, and Shea was always laughing or telling jokes to fuel his own mirth.

With the Luciano family's backing, the Teamsters not only elevated Shea's influence in Brooklyn but also gained substantial leverage over the government.

Luciano could effectively bribe any politician through the Teamsters, solidifying the family's immense power.

However, this influence in the underworld was not without its challenges as a brewing war loomed, ignited by the actions of Luciano's mentor and self-proclaimed boss, Giuseppe "Joe the Boss" Masseria.

Joe the Boss's influence was monumental, akin to the tip of a titanic iceberg as his mere gesture could part the underworld of New York like the Red Sea.

Yet, there was a problem which always seemed to loom over powerful figures, his ego.

Joe the Boss wasn't content with merely his nickname; he aspired to become the boss of all bosses, seeking to bring all the mafias under his control.

This ambition created many enemies, and Lucky found himself burdened with the fallout, quelling countless groups like the Mustache Petes and the Young Turks.

The constant turf wars were exhausting, and all Lucky wanted was to return to his business ventures.

Amidst this chaos, another gangster seized the opportunity to make a name for himself and solidify his reputation throughout New York.

Salvatore Maranzano.

The escalating turf war led many to rally under the banner of Salvatore Maranzano, a man with a different vision.

Instead of consolidating the families under a single leader, Maranzano aimed to have the families collectively control the underworld.

This approach appealed to those dissatisfied with Joe the Boss, and they began to join Maranzano's ranks to challenge Joe's dominance.

As time passed, Lucky observed Joe the Boss's influence waning and recognizing the need to stabilize the situation and maintain his own power, Lucky decided to bring an end to the war once and for all.

Seeing an opportunity to switch allegiances, Lucky Luciano struck a secret deal with Salvatore Maranzano.

In exchange for orchestrating Giuseppe ``Joe the Boss' ' Masseria's death, Luciano would receive Masseria's rackets and become Maranzano's second-in-command.

Joe Adonis, initially part of the Masseria faction, alerted Luciano about Masseria's suspicions and murder plot against him.

On a fateful day at Nuova Villa Tammaro, a Coney Island restaurant, while playing cards, Luciano excused himself to the bathroom.

During his absence, the gunmen allegedly Anastasia, Meyer, Adonis, and Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel executed Masseria.

Ciro "The Artichoke King" Terranova, supposed to drive the getaway car, was reportedly too shaken to do so, and Siegel had to take over.

With Maranzano's blessing, Luciano took over Masseria's gang, ending the Castellammarese War and becoming Maranzano's lieutenant.

With Masseria out of the picture, Maranzano reorganized the Italian American gangs in New York City into the Five Families, appointing Luciano, Profaci, Gagliano, Mangano, and himself as heads.

Declaring himself 'capo di tutti i capi' ("boss of all bosses") at a meeting of crime bosses in Wappingers Falls, Maranzano began to favor his own rackets over those of his rivals.

Although Luciano appeared to accept these changes, he was merely biding his time as he had come to believe Maranzano to be even more greedy and inflexible than Masseria.

By September 1931, Maranzano saw Luciano as a threat and hired Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll to eliminate him.

However, Lucchese alerted Luciano that he was marked for death.

On September 10, Maranzano summoned Luciano, Meyer Lansky, and Frank Costello to his office at 230 Park Avenue.

Convinced of an imminent ambush, Luciano acted first. He sent four Jewish gangsters, whose faces were unknown to Maranzano's men, into the office.

Disguised as government agents, they disarmed Maranzano's bodyguards. Aided by Lucchese, who identified Maranzano, they stabbed and shot the boss, marking the beginning of the fabled "Night of the Sicilian Vespers."

Following Maranzano's assassination, Luciano called a meeting in Chicago. Rather than declaring himself capo di tutti i capi, he abolished the title, recognizing it as a source of conflict and a potential target on his back.

His goal was to quietly maintain power and prevent future gang wars. The Commission, consisting of a "board of directors'' to oversee all Mafia activities in the United States and mediate family conflicts, was formed.

The Commission included the leaders of New York's Five Families Charlie "Lucky" Luciano, Vincent Mangano, Tommy Gagliano, Joseph Bonanno, and Joe Profaci alongside Chicago Outfit boss Al Capone and Buffalo family boss Stefano Magaddino.

Luciano was appointed chairman, with the agreement to hold meetings every five years or as needed to address family issues.

With the Luciano Gang beckoning into the Luciano family, the organization expanded with it.

Lucky wanted to make Meyer his underboss however his skills in bookkeeping were so notorious that he became the official bookkeeper for the entire commission and would be the main speaker when any boss wanted to invest in a venture.

So after a hard decision, Lucky made Genovese his underboss while giving him all the duties of being second in command.

Although Frank was one of Lucky's most trusted men and a high member in the organization, he had to put him as a Consigliere due to the frustration of the other mafia bosses.

Frank Costello wasn't from Silicy but Caliban; however, although it was only a region difference, for the mafia it was enough for him not to be trusted.

In fact, the way Lucky and Frank became partners was because Frank had been struggling since not a single gangster trusted him due to him being a 'Dirty Calabrian'.

Lucky was the only one to give Frank a chance and when he did, Frank became eternally loyal to him while rising up the ranks of the gang.

Now, Ricky found himself in a completely different tax bracket as once the bloodbath that had occurred the previous year elevated the Luciano family to new heights.

Splitting New York among themselves proved immensely profitable, netting millions in revenue.

The local gangs, recognizing the Luciano family's power, paid their tributes or faced the cessation of their operations.

Throughout this turbulent period, Lucky kept Ricky by his side, teaching him every step of the way.

Initially, Ricky struggled.

It was inevitable, Ricky had literally never even had a job in his previous life which made literally any form of commitment a struggle.

He wasn't good at management, administration, delegating, and by far was a horrible shot.

So when Lucky was trying to implement a leading role in the family it was far more challenging than he had anticipated.

However, with Lucky's immense patience and guidance, Ricky gradually developed into a solid leader who wouldn't crack under a desperate situation.

Despite his persistent faults, particularly his drinking, Lucky was proud of Ricky's growth. Ricky even earned a new nickname to go along with "Slick," reflecting his rising status within the underworld while constantly calling him a 'Royal Thug'.

Initially, it was a taunt devised by Jake, Rocco, and Arturo, but Ricky embraced it, liking how it rolled off the tongue.

After the formation of the Five Families, Ricky began truly living his life, no longer confined to the mansion as he had been for the past five years.

Ricky had also begun to master his abilities, and his notoriety spread not only through the underworld but across New York as well.

Although with the heavy stigma, he didn't bother to hide his powers, finding it too tedious.

Initially, Lucky was heavily opposed to this, but after witnessing Ricky's strength firsthand, he agreed to let it be.

With the help of a few well-placed whispers, Lucky spread positive rumors about Ricky, ensuring he was at the forefront of them all and controlling the passage of the whispers.

Over the past five years, Ricky hadn't fully utilized his system, but now it was ready.

His dragon had finally awakened from its long slumber, returning to its former size and strength.

This resurgence made Ricky hopeful for even greater growth, as every man desires a bigger member.

*Knock*

*Knock*

*Knock*

Ricky knocked on the door of the woman he had met years ago, the one he had been protecting ever since he gained the power to do so.

No assistance from his father was needed; no man dared to approach her, knowing it might incur the wrath of the Luciano family.

Ricky had been biding his time, his eyes set on the mission that had haunted him for the past five years.

Power hadn't initially attracted him, but after experiencing the capabilities of his system, he couldn't resist any longer.

He succumbed to its allure, finding the requirements a pleasurable bonus. Ricky now sought not only to grow stronger but to relish the efforts of gaining more power, enjoying the journey as much as the destination.

"Ricky?"
