### Summary
The narrative has recently sidelined protagonist Gray Yeon to delve into the traumatic origins of the primary antagonist, Donald Na, leader of the Yeongdeungpo Union. This exploration of Donald's past, which includes a shocking act of self-mutilation where he deliberately scars his own face, has provided a deeper psychological context for his brutality, eliciting reader sympathy and solidifying him as a complex and formidable "emperor." While this character-focused detour builds anticipation for the final showdown, reader comments indicate a growing impatience for the plot to return to Gray and his Eunjang allies. The overarching conflict has escalated from a school rivalry into a dishonorable vendetta, with the Union launching cowardly sneak attacks on Gray’s friends and introducing adult gangsters, pushing the stakes toward a lethal confrontation. This personal war forces Gray to unleash his cold and calculative "White Mamba" persona, a fighting style born from his own past trauma. The stage is now set for a climactic strategic clash not of brawn, but of intellect between two brilliant, trauma-scarred minds: Gray Yeon and the now tragically nuanced Donald Na.
