The Cellhouse Kingmaker's Playbook

I Woke Up as the Leader of Prison?!
I got transmigrated into a book, but—excuse me, what?!
What am I supposed to do when I transmigrate ten years before the original story even starts?

The setting: prison.
The problem: it's worse than the jungle. A lawless war zone.

After rolling through hell for ten years, I became…

The leader of the prison.

"Hey, Mint. You might wanna chill."
"I’m afraid I don’t know what you’re talking about, sir."

I ended up a swaggering prison gang leader.
But hey, I’m fine with this.
This is what we call the privilege of a long-time survivor.

"On paper, you’ll be considered dead. In return, you’ll do a job for me."
"I’m afraid I still don’t understand, sir."

Then a chance came—like a lie made real.

"Help me, and I’ll get you released."
"What do you need, Master?"
"..."

The prison chief gave an order to me—now known as the prison’s #1 certified nutcase:

"Turn the new guy into the boss of this prison."

They call it prison, but this place is a total free-for-all.
And if I manage to crown one man as the next boss, I finally get out.

"But the place you're going to… is the men’s prison."
"...Huh? I don’t exactly have the thing for that?"
"Disguise. Got it? Disguise!"

…Except—oops?
Turns out that new recruit? He’s the original male lead.
