It's the way it should be. Passione shouldn't exist to the benefit of one man or act as a parasite to the whole of the community. It should be a mutually beneficial relationship. The community is willing to look the other way on some of the uglier things Passione has to do and Passione puts its resources to offering the community protection and security. We are supposed to be outside the law to make up for its failings and the loopholes others would exploit.

But that's not what Diavolo ever intended. Instead of eliminating the drug trade, he simply took it for himself. And as it spread the people of Napoli were growing afraid. The most I could do was lie to them until I could figure out some way to end the trade from the inside.

[Bruno shakes his head a little.]

But Giorno's changing all of that. I know he'll finish making Passione into what it should be once he returns home. It will take time for the damage caused by the drug trade to heal, but he has the will and the ability to make it so.
