Sorry, and thanks
Minaho-neesan says her thanks.
yukino!
.I
What’s with you stupid?
Thanks, Yukino. I love you!
Oh shut up! I already know that! You dummy!
Then.
I don’t care about the other women but be sure to be a father for this child, okay?
Yeah, I know
Geez, that’s what I’ve always been worried about
Yukino’s been thinking about the future of the child all this time.
Thinking about the welfare of the child, I think it’s best to stay here
Then she exhaled loudly.
Well then, I’ve got big news for Yukino-chan!
Nagisa speaks to Yukino with a big smile.
I’ve also confirmed my pregnancy recently!
Yeah, Nagisa hasn’t told Yukino about her pregnancy yet.
This is my second time, so I’ll be fine. Let’s bear a healthy child together!
If Nagisa’s with her, Yukino can manage her anxieties about childbirth.
Uhm, me too
Tsukiko raises her hand.
I’d like to be pregnant as soon as possible as well
Yeah, get yourself pregnant soon
No, Nagisa, this isn’t a race.
Well, I Takanashi Katsuko also am late. However, I’m doing my best to get pregnant soon as well!
Katsuko-nee smiles.
Mama. what does that mean?
Mao-chan, who haven’t understood the situation, asks Nagisa.
Well you see, that means that next year, Mao’s two little sisters now may increase to four at this stage!
Eeh? Really?
Mao-chan’s surprised.
Is it okay to have all the happy events happen one after another, Mama?
Nagisa.
It’s okay, everyone’s here together. We’ll reach greater heights of happiness!
Wow! This is huge Agnes-chan!
uu, that’s amazing!
Mao and Agnes are excited.
uugh, I want to get pregnant too
Michi said.
Not now
Edie replies immediately.
If we get pregnant now then we can’t protect the family
Michi is also Misuzu and Ruriko’s bodyguard at school.
Edie’s protecting Megu, Nei, and me.
She’s right; if they get pregnant now, then it’s a big problem.
If you want to get pregnant then find someone who can replace you as a bodyguard
Edie said.
I see, that’s a good idea
Michi nods, but.
Although, it has to be someone as strong as Michi while also at the same age as you. Or maybe the same as me
I think so too.
Mumumu, you’re right
Michi’s sister is a useless one
Edie looks at Kudou Haruka.
Kudou Haruka’s just dumbfounded.
She seems to think that her father and Shou-neechan has abandoned her.
After lunch, we moved locations.
Yukino, Mao-chan, Agnes, Katsuko-nee, and Nagisa stayed in the dining room.
As for the others, we head to another room.
This is the final meeting as we’re about to fight off the Kansai Yakuza later.
Misuzu and Ruriko will stay on the mansion, but they’re here.
Also, Yoshiko-san.
Sorry, there’s something I’d like to discuss with Minaho-san further, so you guys prepare for departure instead
Shou-neechan tells us.
Shou-neechan, Minaho-neesan, Margo-san, and Rei-chan are talking to each other while looking at a monitor.
They’re the experts and planning tactics.
I should leave that to them.
Anyway, as for the Takakura sisters, wear this. And this is yours, Yo-chan
Nei brings in a case of clothes from the other room.
Shrine maiden clothes?
Tsukiko’s surprised after seeing what’s inside the case.
That’s right. Although, that’s completely different from the cosplay outfits you had yesterday. These ones are clothes from the shrine maiden
We prepared that
Shou-neechan said.
I think that it’s better if we push through the shrine maiden appearance. That’s the look the Yakuza’s fixated on
I see.
There’s more impact if they appear wearing shrine maiden clothes instead of school uniform.
Understood. Indeed, I must let Kiyomi-san know that I’m prepared to take over as the shrine maiden
Oh? I’ve prepared costumes for the three of you though
Shou-neechan laughs.
but, Yomiko, and Luna
Tsukiko’s perplexed.
Tsukiko wants to release her sisters from the curse of Takakura shrine maiden.
No, just this time, Onee-sama
Yomiko takes out her costume from the case.
We won’t win against Kiyomi-san unless the three of us unite
Yes, I’m wearing this too!
Luna also reaches out for her shrine maiden costume.
Okay, well then, change your clothes in that room. I’ll also give you some light makeup! You girls should look as beautiful and cute as possible for this occasion!
Nei smiled.
Thank you, Nei-oneesama
Yeah, give us a moment. As for Yo-chan, wear this
I open up the case Nei handed me.
School uniform?
Our school’s uniform.
No, but it’s still in September. Winter clothes are too hot to wear
I said.
This one’s specially designed to be blade and bulletproof
Huh?
I had that prepared as well
Shou-neechan puffs her chest in pride.
This is to keep you safe even when in danger. If you’re wearing a school uniform, the base of your neck has a stand-up collar
This is for my sake.
Although, it can’t keep your face and head safe. You have to protect it yourself
I see.
That’s how dangerous a location with a Yakuza is.
Oh, it would be impossible for him to deal with stuff even if I tell him so Michi-chan, Edie, you’re in charge
Roger that
Understood
The two who can sense Qi will be our bodyguards.
Err, Mitchan’s gonna wear the same clothes?
Nei asks Michi.
Yes, this is my battle clothes
Michi’s wearing her super-ojou-sama school uniform wherever she goes.
They’re supposed to wear their school uniform even in formal locations, but,
Michi’s school uniform is filled with tradition and elegance.
To be honest, Michi’s got a petite body and a well-shaped face, and when she wears the uniform,
No ordinary person would think of her as a bodyguard.
She carries herself elegantly as well. Anyway, Michi’s cute.
Nobody could imagine that under her skirt, she’s hiding a red whip, a shuriken, and a steel ball.
And so, Haruka’s going to wear the same uniform
Kudou Haruka’s enrolled at the same school because she was Ruriko’s bodyguard.
It just happened today that she’s wearing the same uniform as Michi.
Michi’s in middle school and Haruka’s in high school, but there’s hardly any difference in the uniform.
Then, Mitchan’s ready now, Edie, come with us and change
Nei said.
You’ve got combat dress?
No way. You can’t afford to wear clothes that alert the enemy, you know? We’re going to wear our school uniform too!
Huh?
I’m also an asset to lower the guard of those people just like Haruka-chi. Maybe I’ll wear an elegant dress to emphasize my breast. Edie and I can go for the bitchy look
No, wait.
Uhm, you’re going too Ya-chan?
That’s a dangerous place.
Well, you’re going, aren’t you, Yo-chan?
Nei smiles.
If anything happens to Yo-chan then I’ll commit suicide right there
nei?
And so, be sure to take good care of yourself, Yo-chan!
Nei knocks on my chest.
I won’t let you die alone!
With Nei saying that; she heads to the other room to change clothes with the Takakura sisters and Edie.
In the end, Nei-oneesama has the most resolve among us
Misuzu sighs.
No, Misuzu-oneesama. Staying with Onii-sama to act together all the time and waiting at the place where Onii-sama can return to are both acts of love, and there’s no difference between them
Ruriko said.
Misuzu and Ruriko have already decided to stay in the mansion.
Uhm, Misuzu-sama, Ruriko-sama, I’d like to discuss something
Yoshiko-san talks to the two.
What is it?
Minaho-neesan and the senior group are having a meeting.
Nei’s out of the room.
There’s only the three ladies of Kouzuki house, Michi, and me right in front of Yoshiko-san.
I have an idea
Yoshiko-san
Is it possible also to receive this house’s care aside from Yukino-san?
Yoshiko-san as well?
Kuromori-sama hasn’t turned me to his woman yet, however,
As expected, having all of the successors of Kouzuki house would be problematic.
However, if you do that, Grandfather,
Ruriko speaks.
Back then, Ruriko and Yoshiko-san lived apart from their parents.
Jii-chan kept them isolated from the world.
However, Ruriko’s father had a strange death.
The society knows that perhaps, the late second son of Jii-chan had done something outrageous.
As a result, Jii-chan dislikes the daughter, Ruriko, and kept her away.
Jii-chan chased her out of his house and entrusted her to Kuromori Minaho who’s living in this mansion.
That’s the setting.
And so, Ruriko could enjoy her free life.
And because Ruriko’s gone.
Jii-chan takes Yoshiko-san to the public.
Jii-chan introduced Yoshiko-san as the illegitimate daughter of his first son and as a successor of the Kouzuki house.
That would mean that Grandfather will be alone
Ruriko says worriedly.
Yes, therefore,
Yoshiko-san said.
Can we not have Grandfather live in this mansion as well?
Jii-chan in this mansion too?
Chapter 723
I don’t think Grandfather needs a prostitute nowadays
Yoshiko-san said.
Grandfather is already old
Jii-chan’s 82-years-old this year.
He’s showing off that his sexual desire is strong even at his old age, but in reality, his body can’t have sex anymore.
Only Minaho-neesan and the former prostitutes like Katsuko-nee knows that fact.
I think that he needs someone who soothes his mind more than physical pleasure
Yoshiko-san said. Misuzu, Ruriko, and Michi listens.
We have a lot of lively girls in here. I believe that it would be better for Grandfather if he watches over the growth of little girls than playing with prostitutes instead
Watching over the growth?
Indeed. Grandfather might be happier if there are young and lively girls with him like Mao-chan and Agnes, instead of dazzling prostitutes
Misuzu nods.
To be honest, after Ruriko-sama has moved to this mansion, Grandfather looked a bit sad, days where he shows a gloomy face has become more frequent. I don’t think I can fill in for Ruriko-sama no matter what
Ruriko’s got the same face as Jii-chan’s first love.
He holds more than love for his granddaughter.
That’s why he sold Ruriko to me.
He feels sorry to keep Ruriko under his control and in isolation.
Above all of that, with Jii-chan’s old body, it’s impossible for him to have sex with Ruriko anymore.
And so, to give up on his evil love,
Is that so? He’s never shown such a face in front of us before
Ruriko sighs.
As usual, the Kouzuki mansion is lonely. It’s just Grandfather and me in the dining table. Having lunch in this mansion is lively and fun. That’s why I thought of bringing Grandfather here
Yoshiko-san said.
But, this is a brothel though
I tell Yoshiko-san.
If Jii-chan’s visiting regularly then we can convince the Kouzuki house and the executives from the group that he’s doing it out of his hobbies, but,
Jii-chan is quite the ladies’ man, after all.
He frequented the brothel when he was young after all.
But, if he were to live in the brothel, then
Will they accept that he’ll live and stay here?
Kouzuki group?
Or maybe, the society he’s around with.
I think it’s possible to manage it
Misuzu replies.
Grandfather has already ruled his descend from the throne of the group, and he will let Shiba-san run the management. The formal takeover will be held at the general meeting of shareholders, but everyone already knows that Grandfather would be retiring Indeed. The group will remain as they are and since the head of Kouzuki house won’t change, I think that his influence on the group will continue in the future, but he no longer needs to go to work every day, and he can live a relaxed life Ruriko said.
As he’s entrusted the management to Shiba-san, Jii-chan’s personality won’t make him say anything extra.
Yes. It can be a personal investment, but he won’t be steering the whole group anymore
No, Misuzu, sure, Jii-chan’s retiring and is now free, I understand that. But I don’t think that he can live in a brothel even with that reasoning
This isn’t a place for an 82-year-old man to live in.
Well, that’s where Grandfather’s whims come in
Misuzu smiles.
In Kouzuki Shigetaka’s life, he’s never made an odd choice. The legend of Tiberius’ Capri island does exist after all
What’s that?
There was a legend about the Roman Emperor, Tiberius going off to a secluded island on Capri, and it is said that he’s enjoyed himself with indecent acts every day by collecting boys and girls
So that kind of person exists too.
The legend now has a strong theory that it’s a story creation of Suetonius but, if it’s that Kouzuki Shigetaka, then maybe he could carry out that kind of secluded life.or so the thoughts of the others would be. As long as they know Grandfather well I see. If it’s Jii-chan, people could think that he could do anything more than choosing a brothel as a place of residence after retirement.
But, even if Jii-chan manages to do something.
I look at Minaho-neesan.
Minaho-neesan’s meeting is on a break before I noticed it.
They’re listening to our conversation.
Our talk is about the foundation of Kouzuki house and Kuromori after all.
Indeed. If Kakka were to live here then, it would be impossible for the brothel to continue activities as usual
Shou-neechan said.
It would need to have all the customers have a close relationship with Kouzuki house. Some could pretend to be customers of the brothel and try to talk to Kakka directly
That’s right.
As this will reopen, there will be various customers. There’d be some who are against the Kouzuki group’s business.
With Jii-chan here, those customers won’t come anymore.
Indeed. I plan to cooperate with Kouzuki-sama. I can accept him as a customer, but I won’t allow ourselves to become subordinates of Kouzuki house
Minaho-neesan smiles.
If Jii-chan lives here, people would think that he has Kuromori under his control.
That’s bad.
However, I don’t have any intention of reopening the brothel at this mansion. As I said before, I plan on doing business in the underground facility in the hotel in front of the station
Kuromori has a secret playroom in the basement of the hotel in front of the station.
I’ve been there once.
Either way, the plan is to resume only for five years. We only have to satisfy the customers for now, and we have no intention of expanding our business. Our facilities here and there are enough
Minaho-neesan said.
I’ve also said before that I don’t want to raise Agnes and the young girls in a place where prostitutes are doing business. That is why I want to get out of here as soon as possible, but there’s no place with a fully equipped defense system like this house, is there?
We’re under the eyes of various enemies.
The police are still following us due to Kyouko-san’s case.
Misuzu and Ruriko always need bodyguards, as there’s the possibility of them being abducted all the time.
Katsuko and Nagisa are already planning to build a multi-floor building. Margo and I are both investing in it too
A building with Katsuko-nee’s bakery and Nagisa’s shop together in it.
And then, the upper floors will be our living quarters.
The plan is for the whole family to move in there.
However, it’ll take several years to complete that building with a perfect defense system in it. We’d like to finish it by the time Yoshinobu graduates, but, But if that’s the case, we still have to use this mansion for at least two and a half years, right?
Yeah, if it’s until I graduate, then,
We’ll continue living in this mansion for a while.
Therefore, I don’t intend on opening the brothel here but instead over there
I see.
If that’s the case, Minaho-oneesama
Ruriko speaks.
Could you sell this mansion?
Huh?
This is a memorable place during the youth of Kouzuki Shigetaka. Therefore, I think he’d want to live in here after his retirement. It doesn’t sound strange
indeed, in fact, when Grandfather was young, this mansion wasn’t just a brothel but also a secret social club for the influential people in political and business circles
Misuzu nods.
Minaho-neesan’s grandfather, Kuromori Kounosuke, opened this place as Kuromori tower.
This brothel hasn’t been open for almost a year. We can say that Grandfather bought this residence out of the nostalgia of the old building
Oh, you mean that I’ll be using the capital from selling this mansion to Kouzuki-sama and reopen the brothel?
If you’d like, it can also be an exchange for a real estate owned by Kouzuki family. I think that it’s more real
Misuzu said.
Indeed. If Kuromori opens up a new shop, then we’re likely letting go of this mansion. It may be a building with lots of memories for the old customers, but there are also memories of Shirasaka Sousuke in here Shirasaka Sousuke took over Kuromori over 15-years ago.
Now that Shiraaska Sousuke’s gone,
It won’t sound strange if Minaho-neesan and the remaining prostitutes want to resume their operations on a new location.
The customers know that Minaho-neesan herself was a victim of Shirasaka Sousuke.
Grandfather purchases this mansion and then he’ll gift this to me. If the deed is mine then even if anything were to happen to Grandfather, nobody can take away this mansion
Ruriko said.
So the plan is to make it Ruriko’s property before the inheritance?
And I will return it to Minaho-oneesama in the end
Ruriko?
Ruriko knows that to Minaho-oneesama, this mansion is an important place. However, please think about the idea of selling it and changing the name of this mansion. Grandfather can live here in peace and eventually when he no longer needs this house, we can always return it to Minaho-oneesama. Would you please lend this house to us for a while?
Jii-chan is 82 already.
He’ll die someday.
He might even skip hospitalization.
Once that happens, Ruriko will return this mansion to Minaho-neesan.
If this house belongs to Kouzuki house in documents then I think we can convince the people outside. What do you think, Minaho-oneesama?
Ruriko asks.
But, won’t it look strange if we’re living in a property owned by Kouzuki house?
Ruriko is Jii-chan’s daughter, so she’s okay but, Megu, Mana, all the other girls, and me, we’ve got nothing to do with Kouzuki house.
Besides, wouldn’t it be strange if Minaho-neesan’s living in a place that she just sold?
Kuromori members won’t be able to live here.
That’s not true. It’s Kouzuki house’s freedom to choose who lives in the mansion
Misuzu said.
Let’s see, if that’s what Kakka wants, then I don’t think there would be anyone who’ll point fingers at whoever lives in here. The only problem is whether the people still see this place as a brothel. I don’t think there’s a problem even if he performs trades in here. It’s Kakka’s business either way. We’ll be manipulating the information anyway Shou-neechan said.
If Jii-chan lives in here, then the personal information of the residents in this mansion would be top secret.
Kouzuki SS would do their work.
I’d be glad to do the same. If this happens, then I can stay here as a bodyguard. Don’t you want the same, Reika?
Yes, I’d like to live together with everyone, not just staying in
Since they’re Jii-chan’s bodyguards, it wouldn’t look strange if Shou-neechan and Rei-chan live in here.
In a sense, Ruriko’s plan on naming this house for Kouzuki house seems reasonable but,
Yeah. That’s a good idea Ruri-tan
Yes, Ruriko-sama, I think we should do that
What do you think, Minaho-oneesama?
The three cousins of Kouzuki house asks Minaho-neesan.
However.
That is indeed an interesting offer, it’s worth considering
Minaho-neesan smiled.
But, aren’t you forgetting something important?
Something important?
First, I think that you should discuss it with Kouzuki-sama first. Then, that’s when you’ll talk to me
Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san have to discuss it with Jii-chan first.
Where Kakka should live after his retirement should be discussed within the Kouzuki family. You haven’t consulted Kouzuki-sama about this, and yet you brought up the topic to me
I see. We just made decisions without Jii-chan’s permission.
I’ll forget what I heard just now. I like that the three daughters of Kouzuki house are concerned about their grandfather. But, if he discovers that you’ve made decisions without consulting him, then it would anger Kouzuki-sama. No, instead, it would make him sad Minaho-neesan said.
How would you feel if someone talked about your future without you knowing and even consulting an outsider about it, wouldn’t you feel sad? Don’t you think you’re not treated like family?
That’s true.
But to us, Minaho-oneesama is already family. Our bonds are stronger than blood
Ruriko said.
It may be right for Ruriko-san but what about Kouzuki-sama?
Minaho-neesan’s words are cold.
To him, I’m still a lass. He doesn’t think that I should worry about him! Even now we’re still business partners!
I see.
To Minaho-neesan, she has a clear line with her relationship with Jii-chan.
I don’t want to be depending on Kouzuki-sama nor the Kouzuki group just because you’re staying in our house. It’s not that kind of relationship. Do you understand why?
No
Ruriko replies on behalf of the three.
That’s because I lived using my strength until now. Some prostitutes supported me, helped me. Therefore, I can deal with Kouzuki-sama in business, but we can’t have a relationship deeper than business partners Minaho-neesan.
Similarly, I can’t simply tell you that Kuromori will deal with things smoothly because you’re from Kouzuki house! I want to stand on my feet all the time
I see.
Among those who helped Minaho-neesan, some prostitutes have died already.
Therefore, Minaho-neesan cannot show herself to be close to Jii-chan too much.
They have to show that they’re equal business partners, using each other.
She doesn’t want just to borrow the power of Kouzuki house.
I don’t mind selling this mansion. But, I won’t sell it for anything less than three times the market price. Kuromori Minaho had trade with Kouzuki-sama, and she made a profit. It was a good deal for her. If the people don’t see it that way, then I would lose my position A fair exchange is meaningless?
People could only see it as Jii-chan giving an order to sell the land and us obeying it.
Well, that’s obvious.
Kuromori has been operating in this area ever since post-war.
If Jii-chan said that he wants to live in a house with the memories of his youth and bought this at the market price, then,
The people will only see it as Minaho-neesan surrendering to Kouzuki house.
Kouzuki house has too much power and money after all.
excuse our impoliteness!
Ruriko bows her head in panic.
We’re sorry!
We’re very sorry!
Misuzu and Yoshiko-san also apologized to Minaho-neesan.
I don’t mind. You’re family, so I forgive you. But you must remember this; no matter how rational and perfect your thoughts may seem, people have different perspectives, you have to think of that or else you’ll only hurt them Minaho-neesan said.
The three of you are daughters of Kouzuki house, you must keep that to your heart
Yes
Misuzu nods.
Anyway, we’ll talk to Grandfather first, Then, we’ll give Minaho-oneesama the revised proposition
We’ll be sure to satisfy Minaho-oneesama
We’ll consider it carefully and ask Grandfather to make sure we won’t cause any inconvenience
Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san said.
Uhm, I think you already understand but still,
.I
All you have to do, especially Ruriko, is to ask Jii-chan that you’d like to live together
Onii-sama?
Look, I know that the problem is that Jii-chan is lonely but, you girls should think about how to make Jii-chan if you talk it out with him. Don’t use logic or be rational
These three are too smart.
Therefore, they make simulations in their mind and make up an answer right away.
But, they’re forgetting the delicate feelings of people.
This is an advice from me
Margo-san said.
You shouldn’t talk like This is the problem, now this is what we should do
She smiled.
Just talk about the problem and don’t derive a solution from it
Why?
Ruriko asks.
Kouzuki-san doesn’t want you to bring a conclusion Making a suggestion like This is the problem, let’s solve it this way, will never make the plan bear fruit. He’d be desperate to build logic to break your suggestion That’s.
Kouzuki-san’s got his pride after all. Do you really think that he’d accept if his granddaughters tell him to do this?
But, the conversation can’t progress unless we show the solution to the problem
Misuzu said.
I wonder? If you just point out the problem and ask Kouzuki-san, saying, Grandfather, what should we do? I think that he would give out the answer you’re supposed to present him, nothing changes
Margo-san chuckled.
You know, Kouzuki-san is a man who won’t move all-out unless it’s a decision he made. Therefore, you should ask Kouzuki-san for his decision
i see
But, will it go that smoothly? Grandfather could give a totally different answer than what we had
Yoshiko-san asks anxiously.
Well, all you have to do is guide him while presenting the problem. But Grandfather, this is another problem. What should we do with this?
I see.
Kouzuki-sama wants you girls to rely on him. And so, do depend on him. You also want to live with Kouzuki-san because you are also sad. But, Misuzu-san, Ruriko-chan, can’t separate themselves with Yoshinobu-kun. What should we do? Grandfather? and that’s all you have to do for now. Your Grandfather has made a lot of hard decisions up until now. He’ll surely give you the right answer. To be honest, I think that Kouzuki-san would think about the best solution coming from Minaho’s position I think so too.
Jii-chan is a man who has lived in the business world.
I think that he’ll be facing Minaho-neesan about this.
I understand
The three nod.
Well, try your best. That’s all from me
Margo-san said, laughing.
Let’s talk to Grandfather tonight
Misuzu said.
Yoshiko-san will be coming back to Grandfather’s mansion once Takakura-san’s case is over, aren’t you? Ruri-tan and I will ride the same car that’ll pick you up
Indeed. I think doing that would be faster
Ruriko also agrees.
Danna-sama, we’ll stay here, and so we’ll discuss this further with the three of us
Yeah, but don’t think of it rationally but instead think of Jii-chan and Minaho-neesan’s feelings, I think you’ll reach a better conclusion with that
Yes, certainly
Misuzu and the two are smart.
I’m sure that they understand it after being told once.
Thanks for the wait
Then, Nei and the girls came back after changing clothes.
Well then, shall we go already?
Shou-neechan tells Minaho-neesan.
Yes, let’s go
It’s finally time to face the Yakuza.
Chapter 724
Chapter 724.Do IT
What do you think, Kou-sama?
Tsukiko, Yomiko, and Luna are wearing matching shrine maiden uniforms.
White kimono and scarlet hakama, their hair is kept in the back.
Unlike their cosplay clothes yesterday, this one is made from good fabric, and so I can’t see through their nipples.
Shou-neechan borrowed these clothes from a proper shrine somewhere, and so Tsukiko and the girls are wrapped in a pure atmosphere.
Yeah, it suits you
Tsukiko does hold that beauty of a shrine maiden after all.
Calm and peaceful. Just like the clear lake water.
Tsukiko’s purity doesn’t change even if she lost her virginity.
Sensei, what about Yomi?
Yomiko’s loli-big-tits stand out even more when wearing a hakama.
But, she’s still 14. Her cuteness far surpasses the lewdness.
She’s a girl as bright and lively as the early summer sun.
Yes, you’re cute. Luna, you’re beautiful
Thank you. Nii-san
Luna blushed.
I can say nothing to this 12-year-old beauty wearing a shrine maiden clothing but cute.
Oh. I see. Luna’s got insecurity to the cute girls around her.
That’s why she calls herself Boku.
Darling, what about me?
Huh, Edie?
Edie and Nei are wearing sailor uniform mimicking Michi’s school clothing.
What do you think of this?
Edie spins around.
Yeah, that looks cute on you, Edie
This tidy looking uniform suits her.
When wearing the usual uniform, she takes off a button on the chest part, and she wears it roughly just like an American.
Ya-chan, that uniform looks good on you
Ehehe, thanks, Yo-chan!
Nei’s a transcendent beauty, and thus she looks cute whatever she wears. She’s fashionable and so the clothes she wears suits her.
But this kind of neat-looking sailor uniform is also nice.
The harmony and elegance, and Nei’s bountiful breasts are well balanced.
Darling, you see!
Edie gets sullen as my eyes are focused on Nei.
You see, unlike Michi, I wore spats to hide my panties!
She said, then flipped her skirt and stuck out her ass to me.
Yeah, Edie’s not wearing a panty but instead a black spats with a thicker synthetic fabric.
I mean, it spoils the elegant atmosphere she had.
That’s not spats, it’s called bloomers
Nei laughed.
What’s bloomers?
You see, the first woman who wore bloomers was named Bloomer. In Japan, it’s used as the training wear for girls for a long time, but before the 21st century, it’s turned extinct because of obstinate people. But, we have a box of each size left in cardboard boxes in this mansion, and so I had Edie wear one There must be a lot of customers who like prostitutes wearing bloomers.
And so why do I have to wear this?
Edie looks at Nei in wonder.
A lot of boys likes girls wearing bloomers. It shows your body like clearly, doesn’t it?
Nei smiled.
Darling, do you like this?
Edie flips her skirt up and shows me her bloomers, then asked.
yeah, well, somewhat
Okay, then I don’t mind
Edie smiles brightly.
Uhm, I feel like I’ve heard some insults thrown at me earlier
hmm, Michi?
I don’t go around and flip my skirt to show off my panties to people though?
Edie protests to Edie.
Really? You always do it though, Michi
Edie replied with a casual look in her face.
Like when you jump, kick, or when you take out your weapon. Michi, you hide a lot of weapons under your skirt after all
Whether it’s a whip or a shuriken, they’re all hidden and sticking to her thin thighs.
is that true, Master?
Michi asks me.
Yeah, sometimes
It can’t be helped, let’s just answer honestly here.
i didn’t notice!
She hides her crotch and ass in embarrassment.
Michi’s face turned red.
Ah, Michi’s been living as a fighter for a long time, so she never worried about her panties showing off in battle.
Michi’s grandfather and Kudou-papa would not even pay attention to that.
Don’t mind it. I thought that this would happen, so I brought one for Michi as well. Have your bloomers here
Michi takes out a black bloomer from her pocket.
You can fight the same way you do if you put this on
Edie gives a thumbs up and smiles.
You can put this on on top of your panties
Nei teaches Michi how to wear it.
O-Okay
That said, Michi can’t put it on right away because of the weapons on her thighs.
She has to take off her weapons first,
Excuse me
Michi takes out the weapons out of her skirt one by one and places it on the table.
Her red whip, shuriken, a wire.
Wait, what’s that.
Michi, what’s that capsule?
A plastic bomb and its detonator
A bomb, what?
Don’t worry. This type never explodes unless the detonator is linked
i see
Yes
Right.
She’s the daughter of that Kudou after all.
She’s carrying explosives around obviously.
By the way, why are you not changing clothes, Darling?
Oh shit.
I was absorbed in our conversation that I haven’t changed my clothes yet.
Give me a second, I’ll change clothes right away
I’m going to change clothes in here now.
Well, all I have to do is to be in my underwear and put on the blade-proof student uniform Nei brought in for me.
People here have seen me naked already several times.
Nobody would care about it, so I start taking off my shorts.
hey! what are you doing!
I hear a hysteric voice.
Oh right. Kudou Haruka’s also here.
Don’t change clothes here!
Hmm. Sorry but I’ll ignore you.
It’s just troublesome to leave the room for her.
Oh, looks like your mind has finally restarted
Minaho-neesan looked at Kudou Haruka and laughed.
Hearing our conversations, she seems to have understood what place she’s in right now
Oh, so that’s why she’s quiet.
Well yeah.
We’re talking with Misuzu and Ruriko about Jii-chan’s retirement location,
Shou-neechan and Minaho-neesan are talking in equal terms.
All that’s inside Kudou Haruka’s head.
The image that Kuromori should be in a position weaker than Kouzuki family,
It surprises her that we’re coordinating.
I think you already understand Haruka-san, but if you do anything strange then the whole Kouzuki SS will become your enemy
Shou-neechan tells Haruka.
It’s within my authority to do so
Shou-oneesama’s the current head of Kouzuki SS’ field department after all
Rei-chan said.
She holds a much higher position than the former director Yamaoka
Kudou Haruka trembles.
Then on the side.
Danna-sama, allow me to help
Onii-sama, allow me as well
The two daughters of Kouzuki house, Ruriko and Misuzu suggest helping me change clothes.
Misuzu puts on my coat from behind.
Ruriko buttons my shirt.
No, it’s okay. I can raise my own zipper
Allow us to serve
Her white and long fingers reach out and pull my zipper.
Ruriko, if you do it that way, Darling would get hard again!
Edie laughed.
If he does then we’ll be serving him in the car, right? Luna?
The loli-big-tits shrine maiden puffs her chest in pride.
Yes, I’ll do it too. Nii-san
Luna replied, bashfully.
Unfortunately, he’ll be in a different car than yours
Shou-neechan declared.
I would be driving the first car, he and Edie-chan will be my passengers. The second car’s driver is Reika, and the passengers would be the Takakura sisters and Michi-chan. Margo-san will drive the third one. Minaho-san and Nei-chan are the passengers Shou-neechan’s in front and Margo-san’s behind to guard the Takakura sisters.
Where will Aneue ride?
Michi looks at Haruka.
Oh, as for Kudou Haruka-san, ride in my car. Edie-chan, keep an eye on her
Roger!
Yeah. We couldn’t place Haruka together with the Takakura sisters.
We should separate her from Michi as well.
That said, she’d only be afraid if she’s with Minaho-neesan and Margo-san.
On the other hand, Shou-neechan’s better as she was with her mother’s colleague back then.
Her brother is also working at Kouzuki SS.
Ugh, that’s unfortunate, I want to be with Sensei!
Yomiko said.
Sorry. We’re not using my 7-seat minivan, but instead, I’ll be using the Benz for Kouzuki SS. A driver, a bodyguard, and the three of you make it full
Margo-san said.
Michi, watch over the training of the three’s qi while in the car
Certainly
We want the Takakura sisters to strengthen their power until the last minute.
I’ll be driving Minaho’s white Benz instead of the Maserati today. It’s not fast, but that car is the toughest
Margo-san tells u.
It’s Benz, so it’s much more robust than the Italian luxury sports cars.
Minaho-neesan’s white Benz is also converted to have bulletproof and blast proof specs.
Margo-san is that cautious.
Ojou-sama, the cars are ready
Katsuko-nee’s voice comes from the speaker.
Oh, Katsuko-nee drove the cars from the garage to the front door while we’re discussing things here.
Our car is parked at the entrance as well
Rei-chan said.
Rei-chan drives the car when coming to this house.
As for me, it’s my usual car
Shou-neechan smiles at me.
uugh, it’s unfair, that it’s just Luna!
Agnes clings to me at the front of the entrance.
Agnes wants to go out with Papa too!
Err.
Agnes, we’re not taking a stroll outside. We’re going to meet people. And there’s a lot of old men with scary faces
I hug Agnes back and tell her.
Can Agnes stay in a place where there’s a lot of people?
uugh. I’ll be okay when I’m with Papa
But I also have a job to do, I can’t stay with Agnes all the time. Can you wait in the car alone? Or, do you mind being alone with this lady?
I point at Haruka.
What’s with that way of saying?
Looking at Haruka, Agnes;
Mumumumuu
Agnes-chan, you mustn’t. Papa has work to do, and so you have to tell him take care at times like this
Mao-chan persuades Agnes.
Kuun!
There, there, I’ll bring you some souvenirs, so wait in here together with everyone, okay?
I pat Agnes’ back.
It can’t be helped
Geez.
Misuzu, Ruriko, Mana, look after Agnes and the girls
Yes, Danna-sama
Yes, Onii-sama
Got it, Onii-chan
Then, I
Yukino too, look after them
Yukino’s startled.
what are you talking about?
You love children, and you get along with Agnes and Mao-chan, don’t you?
yeah right, what about it
So, look after them
I said.
i get it! if you’re going that far
Yukino replied.
Yeah. Mao and Yukino-chan will look after Agnes-chan okay!
mao-chan?
Papa, good luck at your work! Nihihihi
Mao-chan smiles.
She just wanted to say that
Nagisa pats the hair of her beloved daughter.
I see.
Mao-chan never had a father.
Yeah, I’ll do my best
I shook Mao-chan’s hands.
Ah, Papa! Agnes too
Yes, yes.
I give Agnes a handshake too.
Katsuko-nee, Nagisa, I’ll leave them to you
Got it
Leave it to us
The two smile back at me.
Yoshiko-san, my regards
I bow my head to Yoshiko-san.
No, uhm, I’m receiving this mansion’s protection
Misuzu, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san are all here, and so the security from Kouzuki SS should be at the highest level.
The outside should be in close contact with Kudou-san, he and his subordinates are the ones guarding the school, isn’t he?
Minaho-neesan asks Katsuko-nee.
Yes, Megumi-chan should be under their protection. I’ll be checking them through the monitors as well
Thanks
Minaho-neesan doesn’t forget about Megu’s safety.
Kudou-papa knows that our mansion is close to the school.
Things should be okay if we leave it to him.
Well then, we’re going
I tell to those remaining in the mansion.
Michi, please keep Danna-sama safe
Edie-chan too
I pray for your safety
Misuzu, Mana, and Ruriko say.
I don’t know where you’re going, but I know that you’re going to plunge into something stupid anyway. Go ahead. Don’t regret it though
Yukino tells me while having a sarcastic laugh.
Then, see you later, Yo-chan! Shou-neechan, Edie, if you’d please
Nei said and got in the third car.
Leave it to me! Michi! That one is yours!
On it!
Michi gets into the passenger seat of the second car.
Then, Kou-sama
Sensei
Nii-san
The Takakura sisters call out to me.
It’s okay. Trust us
Yes
The Takakura sisters will be on the back seat of the second car.
Now then. We should get going.
You’ll take the passenger seat. Edie-chan and Kudou Haruka-san will take the back seat
Shou-neechan tells us.
Roger that. Get in
i get it! i just have to get in don’t I?
Kudou Haruka gets into the backseat of Shou-neechan’s car while showing anxiety.
In the end, who are you? What are you?
I see. We didn’t explain Edie to Haruka.
We told her that she came from an assassination cult, but Kudou Haruka couldn’t possibly understand that.
You know, I could tell you, but I’ll kill you afterward
Edie smiles.
That’s the kind of personal background I have
Ugh
Kudou Haruka trembles.
For someone like her, a brown-skinned, blonde-haired, and blueyed American girl fluent in Japanese is quite an eerie existence.
Indeed. You should know the horrors of the other side a bit
Shou-neechan speaks from the driver seat.
You only heard of this side from your mother, haven’t you?
Then, she shows a picture to me in the passenger seat.
Remember this face. We already had this confirmed with the Takakura sisters
Confirmed? This person?
This is why we had the sisters act separately today
While I was having sex with one sister,
Shou-neechan’s giving the other girls an interview?
You two as well, remember this face
Shou-neechan shows a photo of a beautiful middle-aged woman. She’s wearing light-green Japanese clothing.
Who’s this?
Kudou Haruka asked. I know this woman.
Takakura Kiyomi, isn’t it?
Edie mutters.
That’s right
Tsukiko’s aunt.
She’s the one who taught the Takakura sisters about the Miko power instead of their ill mother, the shrine maiden.
And it’s possible that,
Kiyomi-san might be our enemy.
Is she under control of the Yakuza who took over the Takakura shrine?
Or maybe, Kiyomi-san is the one controlling the Yakuza with her Miko power.
Based on your conversation yesterday, I had Yazawa-san’s subordinates investigate in Kansai. As expected, Kiyomi-san is gone from the Takakura shrine
Right after Tsukiko’s parents were killed.
Kiyomi-san is sent to the Takakura shrine and is supposed to reside there.
Yet, she disappeared.
Then, one of our research guys got some pictures of the woman named Kiyomi-san. But this is a photo from years ago, we don’t know how she looks currently. That’s why I had the Takakura sisters check the photos we’ve collected one by one and ask them if which is the closest to the current look she had Shou-neechan said.
If the three of them are together, they could pick one out of the atmosphere, see? But if the three of them are separate, they can calm down and judge from their standpoint
I see.
Shou-neechan, do you think Kiyomi-san is in Tokyo?
By that I mean that could she be at the hotel where the deal with Jii-chan and the Kansai Yakuza would occur.
We have to think that she is
I look at Kiyomi-san’s photo again.
Dark face, eyes, not even smiling.
She’s a beauty, but she looks cold.
Kiyomi-san will be apprehended as soon as she’s found, right?
Kiyomi-san should be able to use Miko power.
The power to make someone obey and the power to read people’s minds.
It’s too dangerous.
Especially if she uses her power on Jii-chan.
She’ll know the secrets of Kouzuki house and Kouzuki group.
Jii-chan, the head would fall under Kiyomi-san’s control.
No, that’s not the directive
Shou-neechan said.
We’re not capturing her
You won’t?
We have an issue of shoot on sight on Takakura Kiyomi
Shoot on sight?
This is a secret to the sisters. That’s why you’re in this car
Shou-neechan.
Perhaps, Minaho-neesan, Margo-san, and Nei are talking about the same thing on the third car.
Only the second car passengers don’t know. No, does Rei-chan even know?
Roger
Edie said.
Huh? Kill?
Kudou Haruka trembles.
If we can’t guarantee the safety unless we kill the person then that’s the only choice. Do it as soon as possible
Edie said.
That’s how it is
Shou-neechan starts the engine.
Dorururururururu!
Then, our motorcade starts moving with us as the first car.
Chapter 725
Our train of cars leaves the main gate of the mansion safely.
As usual, there are Kouzuki SS vehicles outside.
Misuzu’s not on board so they won’t follow. They’ll most likely stay and defend the mansion.
Oh, but the police are sending someone to follow us.
Although it’s just one car.
Well, it can’t be helped. This case has nothing to do with the police
Shou-neechan smiles wryly from the driver’s seat.
We’re going to meet the Yakuza from Kansai.
The police won’t take charge of this.
Although, I talked to the department in charge of organized gangs and the public safety department as well. But, Margo-san was with me so they’d get curious. The public safety department that is
The public security department knows the fact that Margo-san is a disciple of the internationally wanted Kyouko Messer.
They don’t think that Kyouko-san would appear in a hotel where the Yakuza’s in Japan will have a meeting, but they’re sending over one just in case. The police still have to make a report of this after all.
Therefore, the number of followers is smaller than usual.
Shou-neechan already told them where and what we’re going to do.
They don’t expect the cars to separate halfway.
Well, just leave them alone. Instead, since those people are keeping track of us, the police will keep us safe until we arrive at the hotel
The Kansai Yakuza aren’t idiots.
They won’t attack us in public while the police are watching.
They’re people who would have a bad time if they’re found out that they work for the other side by the police.
They don’t want to give the police a kick to have them start investigating them either.
I’m glad that Yamaoka-san’s over there now that it has come to this
Shou-neechan said.
He’s the former director of our company’s security department so he should be acquainted with the public security police. And considering his personality, he’ll surely tell the Yakuza The police here are quite scary, and all the other unnecessary things he could tell them Why?
I asked.
Actually, public security police are only interested in Kyouko-san.
They don’t care about the Yakuza.
He’d like to show his worth as a former security director of Kouzuki SS. That’s why, he’ll go say Careful, that one’s a surveillance car from the public safety police! Those guys are much worse than the detectives assigned for the Yakuza or something like that Oh, he definitely would say that.
Besides, the Yakuza don’t deal with the public safety police either. That’s why they’d believe what Yamaoka-san would tell them and be more cautious
And so that’s why the Yakuza would refrain from attacking the mansion out of fear?
Speaking of which. They came attacking the gate yesterday, and yet,
I can’t see them anywhere today.
They don’t pick fights with people they don’t really know. Yakuza’s a gathering of timid people after all
Yakuza. Timid?
They’ll be sure to plunder everything from people they know they can win against. If it’s someone they have a chance to lose, then they won’t fight. They fear risk
Shou-neechan said.
No, but they do have the image of trying to resolve whatever using violence
That’s only for the bottom pile of the Yakuza, those who follow orders. Those people are the first to be cut off and gunned down. The upper echelon of Yakuza hates to take the risk. Nobody wants to go to jail for years because of a trivial reason. They’ve done so many things and worked hard for the organization, and so that’s why they won’t accept imprisonment unless it’s 50 or 60 years I see.
Now then, let’s return to the topic
Shou-neechan sends me a glance.
Earlier, about the discussion Misuzu-sama, had earlier about Kakka and Kuromori house, I’m in favor of it
Shou-neechan.
Ah, don’t mind it, our conversation here is private. You don’t mind exchanging ideas with me, do you?
Yeah.
Earlier, in Misuzu’s discussion.
We’re one family, but.
Minaho-neesan’s standpoint is the leader of Kuromori. Shou-neechan is an employee of Kouzuki SS. Misuzu’s position is as a relative of Kouzuki house.
Therefore, it’s a problem to talk about Jii-chan that way.
As each of their standpoint, no, it may not be accepted due to the difference in their relationship with Jii-chan.
To Misuzu, he’s her grandfather. To Minaho-neesan, he’s a business partner. To Shou-neechan, he’s the owner of the company which she belongs.
That was indeed Misuzu-sama’s rashness. She should’ve made a private consultation where there are fewer people around
But, Misuzu started talking with everyone present
To Misuzu, the current family is much more important than Kouzui house.
She must’ve wanted to talk to everyone about it and have them accept Jii-chan
It must be, but there are steps for everything
Yeah, Misuzu’s rushing things.
If Kakka were to be received in the mansion, it would become hard. It won’t be just him but also Ootoku-san, and Yazawa-san following
Oh. I see.
There’s the thought that the security wouldn’t be a problem as we can leave it to Shou-neechan and Rei-chan, but,
Jii-chan’s bodyguards won’t leave him.
Chief Yazawa also wants to check on Jii-chan’s safety all the time.
When that happens, it will trouble Minaho-san, won’t it? Seeing that Yazawa-san and the bodyguards are now residents
Yeah.
It would mean that Yazawa-san and others will be inside of Kuromori.
Another organization with Jii-chan as the head will live together with us.
Jii-chan will act like a king no matter where he goes.
I mean, that’s the only lifestyle Jii-chan had since he was born.
And if he’s in our house;
If Jii-chan and Minaho-neesan disagree. Yazawa-san and Ootoku-san would be on his side, and it will be troublesome.
Yazawa-san will try to meet Jii-chan’s expectations no matter how unreasonable it can be.
That’s why, it has to be discussed in private what to do specifically, and what kind of preparations and monkey business needed to accept Kakka in the house
Discussing it behind closed doors with only a few people.
Then, advancing the steps to accept Jii-chan in.
But, I agree that Kakka should live together with you guys. To an old man, it’s happiness to see the smiles of young children
Shou-neechan.
My granduncle was like that. He’s living with his son’s family, and there was a small girl in it. He looked happy to spend his old age watching the child grow. He’s passed away already though. I think it was right when the girl was about to become a high school student Old people, especially men, become happy when they spend their old age with children.
It’s a world I couldn’t understand.
Kakka’s life with only Yoshiko-sama is indeed dark. It’s nothing compared to the cheerfulness of your house. Yoshiko-sama also seemed to have fun seeing her yesterday and today
Huh, all Yoshiko-san did was talk to Yukino though
Talking about professional shogi problems,
Professional bowling organizations got taken down and something.
This morning, she was talking about mahjong competition or something.
What kind of topic is that?
Just what happened to Yukino’s interests.
That’s what’s fun about it. Listening to stories about a world you don’t know or unrelated to you eases up your mind
Shou-neechan said.
Yoshiko-sama can meet Ruriko-sama in school, but she seems to be isolating herself in the class
Isolating herself?
She’s thought to be Ruriko-sama’s friend, but she’s suddenly declared as one of the successors of Kouzuki house. Her classmates are having trouble on how to deal with her
Oh. I see.
Furthermore, most of the students there have been there since nursery, see?
Misuzu, Ruriko, Yoshiko-san, and Michi are attending the best school for the wealthy family’s daughter in Japan.
It’s an entire school from kindergarten to university.
There would be girls enrolling halfway, but most of them know each other from an early age.
That’s even more trouble. She’s thought as an attendant, and so they may have done something rude to her. They’re not that close with her so they don’t know if they should keep it or not
I see.
And when she comes home, she’s alone with Kakka. Yoshiko-sama was only an attendant before, and so all she had to focus on was to attend to Ruriko, but she’s suddenly receiving a lecture on business admin and economics It looks like that will happen if Jii-chan’s alone with Yoshiko-san.
Jii-chan’s fond of teaching. He even has his own private class.
If Ruriko-sama had been there then the two would be talking happily, but
Yoshiko-san feels lonely to be alone in the Kouzuki family’s mansion.
Therefore, she’s having fun talking to Yukino-san. Yukino-san talks to Yoshiko-sama without care after all
That’s what’s great about Yukino.
She doesn’t care who she talks to, she’ll always take it on her pace.
Therefore, I think that Yoshiko-sama’s real intention is to stay in Kuromori house
Hmm.
Got to do something about Jii-chan and Yoshiko-san.
uhm
Kudou Haruka speaks from the backseat.
What?
Shou-neechan looks at Haruka through the rear-mirror
is it okay for me to hear all of this?
Haruka asks anxiously.
Oh, you were listening?
i’m riding in the same car, I’d hear it. I heard it all
Didn’t you have the choice to pretend you didn’t hear anything?
Shou-neechan laughs.
what?
Kudou Haruka’s confused.
what does that mean?
Then, Edie who’s sitting next to her;
You’re in the same school as Michi and Ruriko, right?
yes, what about it?
Kudou Haruka’s temporarily hired to be Ruriko’s bodyguard, and so she attends the same school.
What year you’re in?
third year?
I knew it, Haruka can’t deal with this brown-skinned blonde-haired genius American girl.
Edie’s two years younger and yet Haruka’s already polite to her.
What a coincidence, if I recall, Yoshiko’s also in third-year high school
Edie smiles.
Yes, she’s in the class next to me
Kudou Haruka replies with a confused look.
That’s enough Edie-chan. Looks like we can’t use her no matter what
Shou-neechan says while operating the steering wheel.
can’t use? Me?
Kudou Haruka complains.
Do you know what information leak means?
Edie laughs as she asks.
It means to purposely let the other party discover some information to do what we want
What? What does that mean?
Oh, Haruka’s really an idiot.
Shou-neechan’s been talking to see if Kudou Haruka would try and support Yoshiko-san’s school life.
Yoshiko-san’s recognized as the daughter of Kouzuki house after all.
She’s no longer a retainer nor an escort.
It just happened that Kudou Haruka’s in the same school and she’s vacant.
It was a test whether Haruka’s useful or not.
You failed
Shou-neechan said.
what is this about?
I wonder, what do you think it is?
No, you see, you should give me a test before saying I’m disqualified. I’m not useless. I’m sure you’ll find a use for me
No, Haruka.
What happened now was the test.
Let me tell you this, for now, everything you heard just now will not go anywhere but here. If you tell anyone about it, then Kouzuki SS will dispose of you
yes!
Startled, Kudou Haruka straightens her posture.
That said, you’ll tell someone about it. I don’t mind either way. Your friends don’t trust you anymore after all
Shou-neechan said.
what are you talking about. i have a lot of friends. They all tell me that I’m a good girl!
Kudou Haruka reacts.
The students in your school are all rich family daughters, or their bodyguardsattendants, right?
Shou-neechan said.
They already know about your mother expelled from Kouzuki SS. They also know that your mother was the cause of it
Haruka and Michi’s mother had an affair with the former security director Yamaoka, and both of them were useless during the fight with Cesario Viola.
They’ve abandoned their post, and chief Yazawa fired them.
You were confined in the hospital, and so you returned after the end of summer vacation, didn’t you? Did you not notice anything strange? Weren’t they all cold to you?
That’s
Well that’s natural, they can’t get along with someone that has Kouzuki house’s eyes on
Shou-neechan said.
Kouzuki SS is no longer a part of Kouzuki group companies. Kouzuki SS has all of its shares owned by Kakka alone. Shiba-san will be the manager of the group, but even he couldn’t use Kouzuki SS. Kouzuki SS is now a private company only for Kakka Jii-chan’s second son killed the eldest, and so he created Kouzuki SS to protect the other families, especially his granddaughters.
It was Jii-chan’s second son who hired the hitman Cesario Viola.
On the surface, it looks like a company who specializes in guarding him, and other noble families, but.
In reality, it’s an organization with the combat prowess to fight even international crime groups.
Your mother worked for Kouzuki SS, and so your friends trusted you. But, your mother betrayed Kouzuki SS. Isn’t it natural for them to decline their relationship with you once that happens, don’t you think?
Much more, Haruka’s mother right now is.
She’s with Yamaoka, employed by the Yakuza.
From the noble ladies to the bodyguards, they’ll all avoid Kudou Haruka.
You should’ve seen their strange behavior after leaving the hospital and coming back to school. They’re distant. You thought that this can’t go on. You feel that way, and so you contacted Michi-chan, didn’t you? You were trying to promote yourself to Misuzu-sama through Michi-chan, to try and be employed by Kouzuki SS
Haruka isn’t officially employed yet, and so,
The people look at her differently.
that’s right, that’s why!
Haruka admitted it right away.
That’s why, please give me a test! It’s too cruel to be disqualified even though I didn’t take a test yet!
Err.
I’m not good at trying to market myself like Michi! Please look at my skills instead.
Why are you mentioning Michi?
She’s unfair. She’s buttering up Misuzu-sama and everyone. She only thinks of herself
Haruka said.
Oh. Michi’s evaluation hasn’t gone down one bit in school, has it?
Edie nods.
That’s right! She’s the same as me. She’s also that person’s daughter, and yet, I’m the only one taking all of the scandal’s embers, and now I’m in the worse position and yet, nothing changed in her! It’s strange! That girl’s unfair Elder and younger sisters.
That girl did something while I was in the hospital! That’s why my reputation fell!
That’s not it
I said.
But, she’s always sticking to Misuzu-sama. Usually, she should also ask to recommend me, her sister! That girl’s my little sister, you know!
Haruka can’t throw her complains to Shou-neechan, and so,
She throws all of her ill-feelings to me.
You really don’t get it
Edie said, looking amazed.
What do you know?
Haruka shouts.
It’s the opposite
Opposite.
Everyone knows that your mother committed a scandal. That’s why Ruriko and Misuzu approach Michi themselves when people who resent her are watching. They show that they’re close with her
Edie said.
That’s why they all okay with Michi. It’s not Michi. Michi’s not good at dealing with those people. I mean, Michi’s the type who doesn’t care about the evaluation of people around her
Right.
Michi’s like that.
That’s why Ruriko and Misuzu look after Michi
Edie smiles.
They all are good girls
But, Kudou Haruka;
That can’t be true! Why would a lady of Kouzuki house look out for a bodyguard like Michi? That can’t be! That’s ridiculous!
Kudou Haruka only lives within her narrow-spaced imagination.
Do you know how Michi calls Misuzu and the girls recently?
I asked.
i don’t! I don’t care!
No, you should.
Michi calls Misuzu Misuzu-oneesama and Ruriko Ruriruri
On the other hand, Ruriko calls Michi Mitchi
The way you call a person shows your relationship with them.
what’s with that?
Haruka’s surprised.
It’s the truth
The truth
Hey, wait! Seki-san! Look, isn’t Michi much ruder than me? She’s being disrespectful to the ladies of Kouzuki house! You can’t allow that. You should punish her!
Hey now.
Really? Misuzu-sama gave her permission, and so I don’t see any problem with it
Shou-neechan replies, coldly.
But, it’s Michi!
Yes, it’s Michi-chan. She’s cute. Misuzu-sama loves her as a little sister, and Ruriko-sama treats her as a close friend
That’s not allowed!
What’s not allowed?
Geez, just how far did she go on promoting herself!
Ah, it’s spinning around in circles again.
Just what’s going on inside Haruka’s head.
It can’t be helped. Michi-chan’s cute unlike you
Right, Michi’s cute. Unlike you
Shou-neechan and Edie laugh mockingly.
I see! That’s what she’s using! That’s unfair of her!
Wrong
I said.
Michi’s cute. But, Kudou Haruka-san, you’re not. That’s all
What’s with that way of saying. Don’t look down on me!
Then.
Haruka-san, when you were temporarily hired as Ruriko-san’s bodyguard, you were looking at the people around you with a self-important attitude, haven’t you? That was being irresponsible as a bodyguard
I’ve seen Haruka’s irresponsibility during the traditional dance event.
She’s Ruriko’s bodyguard, and yet she’s not near Ruriko’s side at all.
i
I’ve read the reports about you, do you think that nobody’s watching?
Shou-neechan said.
As for Michi-chan, she’s always with Misuzu-sama no matter what, she doesn’t say anything unneeded on the other students, has she? She’s still modest-mannered. She always acts while considering her master. Unlike you who keep talking about the information, you know to other people I knew it, she talks a lot.
For example, the floor plan on Kouzuki house, or even the meals they’re having. You don’t even know how confidential that is
That information can be used for an attack plan if leaked out.
I mean, you can’t trust a security officer who talks about their master’s house without care.
In that regard, Michi-chan works amazingly as a bodyguard. She gets a full score. The girls in your school all know how well Michi-chan works. Honestly, Kouzuki SS received offers to hand Michi-chan to their daughter instead this spring. Most of them were from the Kouzuki clan Other families want Michi as their bodyguard.
Although there are hardly any voices saying that anymore. Everyone in the school knows that Misuzu-sama and Ruriko-sama trust Michi-chan and treats her like a family. There are only a few people in that school who know Michi-chan’s strength as a bodyguard. Some laugh at the name of Kudou style martial arts. But, they don’t look down on Michi-chan’s role as a bodyguard. They all respect her. That’s why Michi-chan’s evaluation didn’t go down even if her mother caused a scandal Misuzu and Ruriko is looking out for her but also,
It’s all the result of Michi’s effort above all.
They can see it.
i I can’t agree with this!
Kudou Haruka said.
I can’t possibly be inferior to Michi
No, look.
You lost to Michi last May and even today.
Well, if that’s what you think then stay in your closed world
Shou-neechan speaks coldly.
Chapter 726
We’re in the city
Edie looks at the road.
She’s already remembered the map and the names of location in Tokyo’s suburbs.
Edie didn’t just receive elite education as a combatant of the assassination, she’s a genius. She has nearly the same intellect as Michi.
Shou, I’d like to hear the instructions on what to do on site already
Edie tells Shou-neechan
We’re to wreck the Kansai Yakuza. No mercy
Shou-neechan looks at the mirror.
We’re killing them all?
Kudou Haruka’s startled as Edie speaks without reserve about killing.
You don’t have to go that far. It’s not worth it. Although, be sure to take down those who come for you in one shot.
One action, you mean?
Indeed, don’t kill them but instead take them down in one shot
Shou-neechan.
As mentioned earlier, Kouzuki SS now is Kakka’s private army. Our job on the surface is a security firm for VIPs from wealthy families, but our other side is a group of specialists who accomplishes Kakka’s requests. But, it won’t go the same way from now on. You know that the situation has changed, don’t you?
Edie and I nod.
Kudou Haruka’s showing a surprised face.
Jii-chan’s retiring from the Kouzuki group and Shiba-san will be the manager. Kouzuki SS won’t be backing up the Kouzuki group like how they do it before, right?
Up until now, Kouzuki house, Kouzuki group, and Kouzuki SS are all under Jii-chan’s control.
But, Kouzuki SS is Jii-chan’s personal company, and so Shiba-san can’t take control.
Shiba-san may be dissatisfied because of that,
To be honest, we’ve received funding and information from the Kouzuki group until now. Our company needs a lot of money to spend on the other side. We’ve sent employees to Kouzuki group to investigate. We’ve also asked for cooperation from Kouzuki group’s companies in various ways Shou-neechan said.
But, we can’t allow that intimate relationship going forward. See? From Shiba-san’s eyes, he only sees it as a professional spy under Kakka’s rule to see if he’s being sloppy in his control
You wouldn’t want that. That’s natural.
It would seem like Jii-chan’s looking down on you.
That is why we will continue to work with Kouzuki group in the future, but we will make a clear line between our relationship. To put it in a nutshell, Kouzuki group will also have to sign a contract and will become one of the groups of companies trading with us Kouzuki SS will continue to carry out their security duties for the Kouzuki group.
However, the relationship won’t get closer than that. There will be a clear line.
With that said, Kouzuki SS needs to become a self-sustaining company. First of all, we have to become the best professional security specializing in both the surface and the other side business
If they’re going to refuse the financial support from Kouzuki group, then their only choice is to earn profit themselves.
Therefore, this case is important to us. This will be the showcase of the new Kouzuki SS
This case.
It’s not about Jii-chan intervening with the Kansai Yakuza causing trouble in the Takakura shrine.
To the distinguished families, they see the case this time as the Takakura sisters asking for Kouzuki SS’ protection
Tsukiko and the two made the request.
Well, there would be a deal with the Yakuza later but, what kind of conclusion could you imagine happening?
How would the Yakuza settle the score with Jii-chan?
Hmm
I think.
After all, if you look at the situation, the Yakuza’s at a complete defeat, right? The group who came after the Takakura sisters in Tokyo were almost completely destroyed, Yazawa-san also raided their base in the Kansai area. Lastly, they’re called over to Tokyo from Kansai Even if you call this a deal, the two bosses of the Yakuza groups are sent to Tokyo, Jii-chan’s ground.
You can only see it as an overwhelming defeat.
You seem to be misjudging the Yakuza.
Shou-neechan laughs.
The Yakuza still thinks they can make an even deal with Kakka. No, if you ask me, they’ll try to make it advantageous to them
Huh, why?
Why would they think that way even in that kind of situation?
It’s because they’re Yakuza
what?
They’ll try to be eloquent, bluff, distract, snap back, use sophism, violence, bribery, influence, or even connections, anyway, they’ll use whatever they can to make the transaction advantageous to them. That’s how Yakuza works. Especially with the two big bosses, in this case, Kansai Raijin Patriarch Oodori, and Unryuu Kaizan’s head Satake. Both of them are heavyweights of Kansai region, the Yakuza of Yakuza in there They won’t hear out what Jii-chan has to say.
Besides, it’s still possible that the Yakuza will try to reverse the situation, see?
Like, taking away the Takakura sisters from us.
Or maybe, taking Jii-chan as a hostage.
It’s possible that they attack our mansion and kidnap Misuzu.
There are so many possible methods.
Furthermore, they don’t even have to do it. All they have to do is make the other party think This guy can do this, If I don’t pull out, it will become troublesome, or These people are too dangerous
If you think that they’re scary, then you lose.
The fact that they use bluffs and threats makes them feel mad people and that they can do it.
Also, they do have the power to support their threats.
Yakuza’s a wide-area gang, they do have enough violence to make threats. They can have someone throw in themselves to shoot a bullet. They could even use suicide bombers. For example, they could send one at the school where Misuzu’s attending. They don’t mind involving outsiders, students, teachers, and whoever it is, and just blow them off. They could even send in five to ten people with dynamite in their stomach It’s hard to prevent acts of terrorism as such.
Normally, they won’t do that, see? Involving unrelated people is out of the question, and Misuzu-sama’s classmates are all from distinguished families as well. They’ll turn all of the noble families in Japan as their enemy if they do that Yeah, if they try to use indiscriminate terrorism and put the other children of distinguished families in danger, then it won’t end well for them.
Though there’s that risk, if they think that they can retort against Kouzuki house and win against Kakka, then Yakuza will believe that it’s worth it
Why?
Looking at the Kansai Yakuza’s side; if Kouzuki Shigetaka Kakka, the noble among noble families backing off from them is good propaganda. That Kouzuki house was afraid of us, they’ll say
Geez, they’re so troublesome.
That means, it’s that.
Old men with elementary school brat logic.
OK. Shou. That means, we can’t show that we’re afraid no matter what they do. Instead, we have to scare off the Yakuza
That’s it. They need to think; These people are too dangerous, are they crazy? You can’t go against these guys, they’re scary
Got it, I’ll be sure to poke their earholes and make their teeth rattle!
Edie, that’s a strange line to say.
Thus, if they show that they are hostile to us, then take them down on a single blow. If you only hurt them, then it’ll only make them have a grudge. If you take them down in one shot then they won’t have memories of it, they won’t hold a grudge either. On the other hand, it would create an impact on the surrounding people. You know the parts where you can hit in one shot to take them down and show now after-effect?
Naturally
Edie laughs.
Do you know them?
She then asks Kudou Haruka.
what are you talking about? If you try to hit a Yakuza and they avoided it, it would become a big deal!
That’s why it’s only one punch
Edie sticks out her fist to Haruka.
No, but the other party could also be doing martial arts, and what would you do with their numbers?
That’s easy, take them down one-by-one with one punch
That’s impossible!
Edie laughs out loudly.
I can. You can’t. It’s easy
She smiled.
I can do it too, and of course, Reika and Michi-chan can do it as well
Shou-neechan speaks from the driver seat.
The other party is Yakuza though? That’s impossible!
Kudou Haruka shakes her head.
This is why Kouzuki SS won’t employ someone like you
Shou-neechan said.
Our company makes the impossible possible. It may look impossible to turn real, but we do it
Shou, you can’t convince her no matter what
Edie stops Shou-neechan.
Her logic goes Those who know will know. Those who can will. Those who can’t understand never will. And those who can’t do it never will. And she’s the last two types!
i!
Kudou Haruka tries to refute but she can’t.
Well, try shutting up for a while. You can’t do anything if you don’t understand
Shou-neechan sighs.
.I
uhm, Shou-neechan?
What?
There’s something I’ve been curious about.
Uhm, it’s about Tsukiko and the girls’ Miko power
I now understand that the discussion with the Yakuza will likely become difficult, but.
If we have the Takakura Miko power, the power to read one’s mind and make one obey, can’t we turn things to our advantage?
Edie, how far have you gone training Luna and Yomiko? Do you think they can use it to some extent?
All while I was doing it with Tsukiko;
Luna is training with Edie and Yomiko with Michi.
Although, there wasn’t enough time for the three to train with their powers combined.
Well, they can control their power better than I thought. But, Darling,
Edie smiles wryly.
I think that we should consider not using the power of the cousins as much as possible today
Huh?
Well, what do you think was their purpose of coming yesterday?
That is to have sex with the Takakura sisters,
Their power awakens from losing their virginity.
I had sex with them early in the morning, and they trained so they can use it.
It was just yesterday, and today, we don’t know if the three can use their power at this stage. Those girls may not be able to control their power while facing an enemy giving out pressure
That’s.
Training and actual use are two different things
She’s right.
Even when Yomiko used her power to shut up Haruka, she was in a place where she feels at ease.
There’s no proof that Yomiko can use her power the same way in a place filled with Yakuza.
I think so too, I don’t think that their power should be used as a fighting power
Shou-neechan said.
But, why was I not stopped from rushing their training?
I was in a rush to make Tsukiko and the girls’ power effective since last night until this morning.
The three were rushing for nothing.
They just lost their virginity and yet I forced them to some intense sex.
There are two reasons
Shou-neechan said.
One is that we wanted to know detailed information about the Takakura shrine maidens. Minaho wrote down everything she heard from the sisters and your reasonings. Then, Margo-san and I discussed it multiple times Minaho-neesan heard all of our conversations.
They were watching us have sex too.
But the Takaura sisters weren’t in the room together with the senior group.
They opened up their hearts and told us everything.
Nei, Misuzu, and Ruriko made a hypothesis out of it.
Then, they keep on looking for Tsukiko and the girls’ reactions.
Thanks to that, we somehow understand what the Takakura shrine maiden’s power is. Although it’s not complete yet
Minaho-neesan and Shou-neechan were investigating that?
What is the enemy’s aim? Why are they chasing after the sisters? How much is the Miko power worth? We have no way of taking countermeasures unless we know about that
Then, we can’t count on Tsukiko’s power yet?
I’m surprised.
That’s obvious. If we can’t fix this issue without relying on that power, then Kouzuki SS won’t make a good name
Shou-neechan laughs.
The other reason is we wanted the sisters to gain the confidence to confront their fate
Fate?
Weren’t the girls acting strange when they just arrived at Kuromori house from Kyoto?
Oh.
Yomiko’s overeager and is in high tension.
Tsukiko’s hiding her emotions.
Luna was dark and depressed.
Back then, those girls were in a situation where the Yakuza killed their parents, and they fled from the shrine they live in, they couldn’t see their future and feel desperate, aren’t they?
Desperate.
Yeah, they don’t know what to do, and yet they got angry and said that they’ll become a prostitute
Edie said.
Anyway, they begged Kakka, and they couldn’t see any other way but to live with the foundation they build in Tokyo. If not, they won’t get in Kakka’s absurd proposal
Yeah, that’s right.
That’s how scared they are from the Yakuza
Tsukiko and the girls are afraid of the Yakuza?
The sisters have been living with the Yakuza around them since birth. Takakura shrine is under the Yakuza’s control after all. Naturally, they’re afraid of them
Tsukiko and Luna are daughters born from the arbitration ritual of the Yakuza bosses.
Tsukiko knows that her father is Oodori.
Oodori visits the Takakura shrine often and puts pressure on Tsukiko every time he does.
And then, their parents were killed by Yakuza. They should know the horror of the Yakuza themselves. Seeing that they couldn’t do anything, they went to Kakka
Then, the three came to our mansion.
They were so afraid of the Yakuza back then, and now, they’re taking the lead to confront the Yakuza. That’s amazing. Just who gave those girls the courage?
That’s.
That is Tsukiko, Yomiko, and Luna themselves. They are now ready to rip out the fate by themselves
It’s not me.
They’re standing up on their own.
I look at the car behind me.
Rei-chan’s driving.
Michi on the passenger seat is facing the back.
It looks like she continues to train the sisters at this moment.
If you think that way, sure. But, we believe that you gave the girls a good influence. You guided them to face a positive direction in their life, to fight the fate they have
I don’t have that strength.
Anyway, it doesn’t mean that we’re not counting on their Miko power
That’s right. Don’t think of it as a trump card. We may use it as a last resort but think of how to win without using that power
And so, Kiyomi-san
I now understand.
Yes. That’s why our orders are to shoot Takakura Kiyomi on sight. That’s the only guaranteed method
Hearing Shou-neechan say that;
Jii-chan, and Kouzuki SS;
I now understand that they don’t want the Takakura shrine maiden’s power at all.
If you want to use the Miko power, then;
We have to catch Kiyomi-san and let her tell us everything she knows.
But they won’t, they’ll kill her without delay.
That’s because they don’t care about Miko power.
We just want to bring in the Kansai Yakuza and show the power of Kouzuki SS. To tell the truth, Kouzuki SS has never advertised or had business with the distinguished families in the Kansai region
To Jii-chan and Shou-neechan, that one is much more important than the Takakura shrine.
Ah, don’t get me wrong. It’s also true that Kakka felt pity for the sisters’ circumstances and he wanted to help them
I know. Jii-chan wanted to help Tsukiko, Yomiko, and Luna, the sisters of Takakura house, and it’s not because of the Takakura shrine maidens having the Miko power
Indeed, Kakka doesn’t believe in the Miko power or anything paranormal or occult
Yeah, Jii-chan’s like that.
I see it now. It’s that building
Shou-neechan points at a hotel building.
That’s also a hotel from Kouzuki group. We have the floor 10 to 15 reserved
Oh, they’re pushing the Kansai Yakuza on those five floors.
Today, the two big bosses who will arrive will bring their lackeys.
It’s also mentioned that the heavyweights in the Yakuza world will be present to watch the deal.
The other groups from Tokyo will also gather there.
This is the first car. Seki to all cars. Can you hear me?
Shou-neechan talks to the radio.
Second car. Fujimiya, loud and clear
Third car, Margo. I can hear you
I hear the drivers of each car.
We’re about to arrive, it might get rough. But, follow my lead. Second car, you don’t need to back us up. Act for your own safety first
Fujimiya here, roger that
No, she’s not talking to Rei-chan.
It’s Tsukiko and the girls.
If ever the Yakuza were to attack us, the first car, they shouldn’t use their Miko power. That’s the warning.
Thanks. Your our ace, don’t let the enemy know what you have until the last moment
Shou-neechan assumes that the radio’s bugged.
Rei-chan’s a celebrity due to her fights with Kyouko-san broadcasted nationwide.
People know her strength with her cane.
Therefore, to those who are listening, they’ll think that Rei-chan is our ace.
Roger that
Rei-chan replied.
Well, Michi’s over there on the second car too.
She’s probably telling Tsukiko and the two to hide their power right now.
As for me, I’ll do whatever I want
Next, I hear Margo-san’s voice.
It’s not like I’m Seki-san’s subordinate anyway
Indeed. I don’t think I can control you either. Do whatever you please
While at it, they’re also telling the eavesdropper that Kuromori and Kouzuki SS don’t work well together.
That’s amazing.
Well then, let’s go
Our cars head to the hotel’s underground parking lot.
Chapter 727
Shou-neechan’s leading with her usual American car, Rei-chan and Margo-san’s car follow and enters the passage to the hotel’s underground parking lot.
There’s no problem so far.
However.
Shou-neechan, I don’t see any guards at all
I see uniformed guards, but they seem to be employees of this hotel.
I don’t see any uniform from Kouzuki SS.
It’s okay, they’re here. They’re wearing civilian clothes though
Shou-neechan said.
I’m not Yamaoka-san. I won’t mobilize uniformed men and squeeze it to a single location without thinking
Oh, back when Yamaoka was the security director, the number of Kouzuki SS guards wearing uniform dispatched is abnormally high.
The other party this time is unfazed by the numbers game, see?
The other party is Kansai Yakuza.
If you try to compete with them in numbers then they’d use the same thing. They can invite members from their own group in their hometown or maybe borrow some men from the gangs close to them in Kanto. To them, honor is the most important. Especially, they’re making a deal with Kakka. They’ll surely take us on even if it costs them money If Kouzuki SS sets up uniformed men around the hotel just like how Yamaoka would do it, then,
The Yakuza would use the same number for intimidation.
Once that happens, it’ll only bother the people around the hotel. Police would also intervene. This is why we decide to fight with quality, not quantity
It means those in Kouzuki SS wearing civilian clothes are;
They’re the top elites in charge of the illegal back-work
They all are incredibly skilled.
For example, in a place where you need ten people in uniform, just two in plain clothes would be enough. The cost goes up three times though
In short, they pay the top elites 15x compared to uniformed men.
The Yakuza gathering in the hotel has been causing trouble a couple of times, but we handle it before the hotel employees, or other customers become aware. And so, the Yakuza’s not coming out of the five floors I mentioned earlier. They’re not entering the lobby, restaurant, or the bar So they’re successful in containing the Yakuza?
Oh, the underground parking lot is an exception. Some Yakuza’s job is to meet others up
Huh?
Not all of the bosses witnessing the deal are present yet
Then that means;
Our line of cars heads to the lowest floor of the underground parking lot. The third floor.
And, I knew it, they’re here
I see some Yakuza in black clothes on the other side of the windshield.
There’s ten of them, obstructing our path.
Stop
Shou-neechan tells the other cars by radio.
Our cars stopped.
As said earlier, the second car will be on stand-by. As for the third car, take care of the rear
Fujimiya, Roger that
Margo, loud and clear
Then, Shou-neechan opened the door from the driver’s seat and went out.
Hey, you’re in the way
The men in black grinned.
Which boss you follow, Oodori-san or Satake-san?
Then, one of the men in black;
Huh? Hold, I’m telling you to stop
He sticks out his hand and lowers his waist to sit down. He’s opening his right hand for us to see.
His age is about 30 years old. His hair is cut short, and he’s wearing sunglasses.
I already am
Shou-neechan replies in amazement.
Oh, that’s a quick response from you. This man in front of you is a poor man, and so I’d like to ask for your patience. I believe that this is our first time meeting, lady. This man before you hail from Osaka’s Kawachi-Kokubu station, Tondabayashi. My job is to follow the young boss, the eighth Unryuu Kaizan Mori head. Last name Kazama, first name Tooru. My trade is to recruit beginners. That is all I have to say if you have anything to ask then feel free to do so What’s with that greeting?
That means that he’s Satake-san’s follower
Shou-neechan whispers to me in the car.
Then,
Then, Kazama takes the same waiting pose.
Thank you for your kind words. Forgive the late greetings. Before you, is a worker belonging to Kouzuki SS. Last name Seki, first name Shou. My job is to hire out the inexperienced. That is all, feel free to ask if you have questions She greets back to the other party in a loud voice.
Thank you
Thank you
The two glare at each other.
Hmm, who would’ve thought that a lady from a security company knows how to make a formal Yakuza greeting
Naturally, I’m paid a lot more than you do
The two get up.
Hey now, aren’t you getting a low salary? If you want, we can hire you. You’re quite the beauty after all
Kazuma speaks in a condescending attitude. Shou-neechan;
Unfortunately but I know how much you earn. Don’t try to show off. Your cheap suit gives it away
What did you say?
You shouldn’t look down on Kouzuki SS’ ability to investigate people. You’re just a leader of a small group under Satake-san’s organization. Indeed, the word immature suits you
What the hell did you say bitch?
Kazuma gets in a rage.
That means these ten people are Kazuma’s group.
And so, what do you need from us?
Shou-neechan smiles.
Oh, shut up. How about you hand over the ladies in the back of the second car?
As expected, their aim is Tsukiko and the two.
Hmm, and what happens after that?
i don’t know about that. That’s for the higher-ups to decide what’s next
So, do you think we’ll obediently hand them over?
Kazuma.
We’ve got ten people here though?
What about it?
Shou-neechan’s complexion doesn’t change in the slightest.
Do you know who I am?
how would I know?
Ah, I know this situation.
Shou-neechan is Jii-chan’s full-time bodyguard, she’s always with him on public locations.
You know, I’m quite strong. That’s unfortunate that you don’t know. But, you should know about the driver on the car behind me
Rei-chan’s in the driver seat of the Takakura sisters’ car.
Aniki, that’s
That’s a big problem!
You’re saying that we’re to fear her?
It’s impossible to fight that one!
The men in black around Kazuma tells him.
I know. I get it. Shut up. You want me to say Ugh, that’s Fujimiya Reika loudly, don’t you? But you see, we’ve got this job, and so we have to do this! The higher-ups gave us this mission
Kazuma gets angry at them.
Oh, I see. In short, you guys are just a messenger
Shou-neechan said.
I see. Some want to stop the deal today for whatever reason they can get and so you’re causing trouble with us. That’s what your boss thinks
I see.
They’d pick a fight, get beaten up by Rei-chan, and then plan to say that they were beaten up one-sidedly.
They don’t care about the reason.
Anyway, someone wants to mess things up and cancel the deal today.
The deal today shows that the members of Yakuza are accepting defeat to the Kouzuki house. I can understand why some can’t accept it. If so, they want to break the meeting today no matter how reckless it can be, am I wrong?
that’s not it!
Kazuma tries to deny it, but,
It’s okay. You don’t have to hide it, I already know. After all, it’s not just you
Shou-neechan smiles.
There’s a lot of similar events happening inside the hotel. Our people in Kouzuki SS are taking down people like you one after another. Well, it doesn’t look like everyone’s trying to crush down the meeting today though. After all, the people on the upper floors are stuck, and they’re feeling worked up The Yakuza in the hotel are being impatient?
But, for some reason, the Yakuza who pick a fight with our people suffer from a sudden illness, like their stomach hurting, or suddenly falling, hitting their head on something and then fainting. We didn’t even do anything The other party is the top elite of Kouzuki SS.
They won’t go as far as mingling with the Yakuza.
They have the strength to control their opponent before the fight commences.
In addition to that, the surrounding people don’t even notice.
And so, you want to end up the same?
Kazuma;
we all want to go back to Kansai right now! We don’t want to be locked in this place! That’s why we’re going take you down. I can’t agree with all of this, and so I’ll beat you up. That’s what I decided. What’s left is for us to do it. What about that? We’re going to beat you up, and we’ve got just cause! With that said, Suguichi, go!
Kazuma nominates one of the black men.
aniki? Me?
Did you not hear me? Go already!
No, but, that’s Fujimiya Reika though? My bones will break if she hits me!
Rei-chan’s battle cane’s power is well known over the past four months.
I’ve seen it on TV. She pierced a car door with just one shot. It was featured on the 6 o’clock news. The program was Fujimiya Reika vs. Mystery Russian girl If she hits me on the wrong spot I’d surely die, you know!
Yeah, I’ve seen that too.
Anya’s an international criminal together with Kyouko Messer, and they’re not shown on promotional videos.
The show is mostly about Rei-chan’s skills.
It’s okay. I’ll be sure to pick up your bones when that happens. I’ll also look after your women. Now go!
Hey! Aniki! Just what was that last line?
Nevermind that! Since you don’t want to go, Masuko, Wakashimazu, join him!
What, me?
The men in black called trembles.
We can end this as long as one of you guys are hurt. That will be the end. That will be the deciding part. We can call an ambulance, police, and a lawyer. Hashimuraniki’s prepared all of it. While at it, we can make some rumors on the net. Media will surely take the bait if we tell them that Fujimiya Reika picked a fight with the Yakuza. I mean, they’ll surely bite that. The middle-class group journalist is all against violence. They’ll even write on their affiliate sites Somehow, they have a solid plan.
But, why does it have to be me?
It’s you, Masuko, or Wakashimazu, just one of you guys!
Could you at least make the game 1 of ten?
Are you an idiot? You’d put me in danger if we do that
Err.
Anyway, someone has to be ready to get some bones broken! Get out already Fujimiya Reika!
Kazuma shouts.
However.
Okay
Huh? Edie’s out of the car before I knew it.
Hallo!
She smiles as she calls out to the Yakuza, then,
She’s flexing her legs.
who are you?
A blonde-haired, brown-skinned, blueyed high-school uniform wearing beauty.
Furthermore, Edie’s smile is as bright as the summer glow.
hey, go somewhere else. It’s dangerous here
Then, Edie takes the same formal greeting pose as earlier.
Uhh, Greetings! Greetings!
What?
Is there anyone who knows who I am? Graciously, I’m just a high-school girl. Edie-chan’s the name!
Uhm, Edie.
Edie-chan’s greeting you all with my head up high!
The Yakuza guys are dumbfounded.
Hey, you’ve mixed up the Yakuza greetings with Mito Komon
Kazuma said, looking astounded.
However, Edie shows calm.
Oops, I made a mistake. How do I say that? Ah I apologize
So, what are you?
I need not name myself for you bastards!
Edie points at the Yakuza while making a cool pose.
No, you just named yourself!
Ignoring Kazuma’s retort, Edie;
Now then, I have sad news for you all
Huh?
I’m just an American high school student, see? I’ve got nothing to do with her company at all
Edie’s not tied with Kouzuki SS,
If it’s Michi, she’s registered as Misuzu’s bodyguard, but,
Even if they have a close relationship with us, we’re not contracted with Kouzuki SS.
And so, if I beat you all up here, it won’t be related to her at all
Edie takes a deep breath and takes a stance.
I just don’t like you guys. I don’t like that face of yours. I don’t like your clothes and those sunglasses of yours. That’s why I’m going to beat you up. That’s the pretext
The Yakuza’s dumbfounded as the foreign girl picks a fight with them.
Oh my, it must be embarrassing for the Yakuza to be defeated by an exchange high school student coming from America, isn’t it?
Shou-neechan laughs.
There’s no tomorrow for you. For I will end you today
She grins.
don’t fuck with us! We’ve got ten people here! We’ve got ten times the fighting power! There’s no way a woman like you could beat us up!
It’s okay. I usually on 3x but I’ll triple it and then quadruple it, and so now I’m at 24x power!
Don’t be ridiculous!
At that moment, Edie jumps out!
HAWOO!!!
Edie’s foot kicks on a vital point of the man called Sugiuchi.
bitch!
The three men in black are all taken down before Kazuma could react.
All of it done in one hit.
Edie’s following Shou-neechan’s instructions.
HAWoo! POWoo!
She got herself close to her opponent like flowing water.
That was Kudou style movements
Kudou Haruka bends herself forward from the back seat of the car.
Yeah, Michi’s training her quite a lot
Kudou style’s method is to ward off the enemy Qi.
The Yakuza can’t do anything about it.
what? What? Awawawawa
Kazuma looks around to find his subordinates taken down in an instant.
You’re the last one
wait!
I won’t!
Edie jumps like the wind.
Her last move was an axe kick on Kazuma’s head.
Puhii!
Kazuma fell on the ground as he raised a strange scream.
It took less than three minutes to take down ten people.
We can’t employ you unless you have this much strength
Shou-neechan tells Haruka inside the car.
Haruka-san, you were the champion in high school Karate, was it? Can you do that? Can you control the same number of people at the same duration as she did?
Haruka hangs her head.
We’re not done yet!
At that moment, Edie pulls out a shuriken from her skirt, then,
She throws it behind us.
hii!
Looking back, there are still more men in black in the shadow of a car in the parking lot.
Edie’s thrown shuriken stabs in the concrete floor right next to the men in black’s step.
I knew it was strange when they kept shouting ten people! Ten people!
Edie runs through the side of our car.
HAWoo!!!
Zuka!
Baki!
Doka!
I can’t see behind the car, but I can hear Edie taken them all down.
Shou-neechan enters the car and speaks to me.
Naturally, I also know that there’s another team behind us. Michi-chan and Margo-san did too
She smiled at me.
Edie’s a girl who can read the atmosphere.
It’s as if she acted that she just noticed.
Although, she might’ve perceived them from the beginning.
Then, let’s leave as soon as possible. We don’t want to reveal our hand in here. I’ll leave this to Edie-chan
Shou-neechan said.
Do you know the word power scouting?
No, I don’t
It’s when you don’t know how strong the enemy is, so you force them to attack and see their strength and style
So that one just now?
Yes. They’re just threatening about calling a lawyer, writing rumors, or using journalists. They want to see how we react with those threats
They want to see?
From where?
Don’t look back. There’s a camera inside the car on the right side. The window’s a bit open, and the lens and microphone are popping out so I can see it right away
Shou-neechan said.
It’s okay. The inside of the car is a blind spot from that camera, and they can’t hear us with their mic either
In short, the Yakuza side is trying to investigate us.
Those who tried to pick a fight with Kouzuki SS are their camouflage. Their aim was us from the start
This is to make sure that it doesn’t look strange if someone tries to pick a fight as soon as we arrive.
The real deal is about to start, what the enemy wants to see is.
Right.
It’s Tsukiko, Yomiko, and Luna right now.
The Takakura sisters.
If the enemy is using Kiyomi-san’s Miko power,
Or maybe, it’s Kiyomi-san who’s the mastermind of this all.
The one that weighs their mind the most is.
How much power do the sisters have now?
We mustn’t let them know.
Therefore, Shou-neechan gave the three instruction to not come out of the car.
How about we break the camera they planted?
I asked Shou-neechan.
If we break the cameras, then the enemy won’t know what we’re doing.
At least, if they try to sneak a photo on us, Michi and Edie can detect their Qi.
No, it’s better if we show that we’re not aware of the camera. For now
I thought that it just started with Yakuza and Edie’s hand-to-hand combat, but,
Actually, information warfare still continues?
I’m done with all of them
Edie returns to the car smiling.
Chapter 728
After warding off the Yakuza in the underground parking lot, we continue driving in the parking lot.
The second and third car follows.
After reaching the innermost wall, Nee-chan;
Everyone, stay alert
She gives instructions through the radio.
Edie-chan, Go outside and check for people hiding around
She tells Edie in the backseat.
Edie sniffs like a dog, then,
Looks okay, nobody’s here
Second car, no problems
It’s Rei-chan’s voice. As for the second car, Michi’s in charge of probing around.
Third car, I think we’re okay
Margo-san reports.
Looks like Margo-san and Nei checked around.
First car, roger that
Shou-neechan opens the window of the driver’s seat and sticks her face outside.
Oh, there’s a surveillance camera above the wall from that point.
Shou-neechan shows her face to the camera and makes a sign with her hand.
Then,
Wiin
The wall opens.
It’s disguised as a concrete wall, but this is actually a gate leading to the inner side.
The hand sign is a fake one. We’re actually using retina scan
Shou-neechan tells me.
And then, our cars proceed into the hidden parking lot behind the gate.
As soon as Margo-san’s car passes through, the gate closes again.
Okay, looks like we have no intruders
Shou-neechan sighed.
It’s okay now. Everyone other than the driver can get off now.
She speaks to the radio.
Then that means that the Yakuza can’t come in here.
Darling, let’s get off. You too
Edie tells Kudou Haruka.
She looks uninterested in calling Haruka by her name.
what?
Haruka tries to refuse but Edie’s showing off her overwhelming fighting power and so she looks a bit timid.
Come here, get off the car!
I get off the passenger seat, Edie and Haruka get off the car as well.
Michi and the Takakura sisters got off the second car. Nei and Minaho-neesan got off the third car.
Give us a second. We’ll park the cars on the garage
Shou-neechan talks to us through the open car window.
I looked around, then the door behind opens up.
Oh, this looks like an elevator where you only drive a car in, a multi-story park.
That computer can deliver the car to the owner from any floor, ground to the third basement floor
Oh, each floor in the parking lot has the same hidden room like this one and is connected to a multi-level parking lot.
Kouzuki group owns this hotel and Jii-chan is using it to make a deal with the Yakuza, it would be strange if I don’t see this secret system at all.
But, why do we have to go to the third floor underground?
I asked.
It’s a rule to not have people in the car while lifting. Well, that’s natural. There’s an x-ray check on the way to see if there’s anything dangerous loaded or whether people are hiding in the car
Yeah, even in an ordinary multi-story park, it’s forbidden for people to stay in there.
Then, we also have a lift to the 16th floor from the hidden parking space on the third basement floor
16th floor?
Kakka’s waiting over there
Jii-chan’s there.
Kakka entered this hotel last night. He did before telling the Yakuza the venue
I see. If Jii-chan’s here first, then,
There won’t be any terrorist acts on the meeting place as soon as he enters.
The other side of that door is the elevator hall, give us a moment
Shou-neechan said.
Shou-oneechaan This door won’t open though!
Nei makes the doorknob clatter.
Oh sorry. That also needs my fingerprint
For now, Shou-neechan brings the car to the lift.
She gets off the driver seat and off the lit, then the car’s carried upwards automatically.
Then, another empty lift appears.
Rei-chan drives her car in there.
Then lastly, Margo-san.
Our cars are all sucked up to the parking garage.
Sensei
Kou-sama
Nii-san
The sisters in shrine maiden clothing come to me looking worried.
It’s okay. We’ll be able to move without problems now
I tell the sisters.
Yes, there’s nothing to be scared of anymore!
Nei cheers up the three.
Meanwhile, Shou-neechan opens up the cover for biometric verification and places her palm in it.
Pipi! Confirmed
Click.
I hear the door unlocking.
Alright, let’s go
After entering the elevator hall,
There are two women in a suit waiting in front of the two elevators.
We’ve been waiting for you
One of them is Taki-san, I’ve been in her care before.
As for the other one,
We’ve confirmed your arrival via the surveillance camera and chief Yazawa has sent orders to pick you up
Isn’t that Banba-san from formerly Banbarubie-3?
Oh right. Barbie-san and Ruby-san followed after Kyouko-san.
Banba-san’s entered Kouzuki SS.
Still,
She’s no longer wearing the stupid Bikini and hot pants with a Japanese sword in her back.
Seeing Banba-san wearing an ordinary suit, she looks beautiful.
Although, she’s got a long handle weapon in her hands.
Thanks for the hard work. Taki-san, Kinoshita
Shou-neechan tells the two.
Oh, Banba-san’s real name was Kinoshita-san, right. I forgot.
Hmm, this elevator
Margo-san compares the two elevators.
The right one leads to the 16th floor, and the left one only goes to the first floor, doesn’t it?
Indeed, it’s possible to make an emergency escape from here
Shou-neechan replies.
Which part of the first floor?
The back of the lobby. You’ll exit on the employees’ warehouse
Margo-san thinks for a moment.
Can we go out for reconnaissance?
Reconnaissance?
Shou-oneesan and Minaho-san still have to give Kouzuki-san a report. Therefore, go with the Takakura sisters on the 16th floor
Margo-san said.
Edie, Nei, and I will go out for reconnaissance for a bit
Are you taking Edie?
I think that the enemies watching the fight in the underground parking lot earlier would react if they see Edie around
Just a few minutes ago, Edie took down the Yakuza ambush of more than ten people by herself.
There should be a guy watching it all with a hidden camera.
We’re aware of them, but we ignored them.
The Yakuza from earlier named themselves as Satake’s henchmen, but
Margo-san continues.
But, maybe, the orders from the attack earlier didn’t come from Satake himself
Someone else gave the order?
Indeed. The groups inside Yakuza may not be a single block. It’s possible that a mid-boss sent in the group without asking for the permission of their big boss, Satake
Nei nods.
Indeed. Naturally, someone plans to expand their power using this opportunity. Yakuza’s that kind of group after all
Minaho-neesan said.
I mean, the Yakuza on the upper floor are divided into the group of the old president Oodori, and the new head, Satake, but both group should have a lot of spies and traitors. Kansai Yakuza’s a small world after all. Some others could be aiming to profit from the fight Yeah, the various ideas entangling and it’s getting confusing.
Therefore, I thought of coming out and checking the situation for a bit. Edie, come with us
Margo-san smiles.
That means if anyone overreacts when they see Edie knows what happens underground, saying, that is the person looking through the cameras.
On the other hand, if they’re not on guard with Edie, they know nothing about the fight earlier.
Edie’s existence becomes the litmus paper for the Yakuza.
Michi-chan, you can guard the Takakura sisters. Edie can do the same, but we’d like to keep the Qi skills as secret if possible
Roger that
Margo-san gives instructions. Michi nods.
Also, Haruka-san and you’ll come with us as well
Haruka and me?
You want to go and scout it out, don’t you?
Margo-san smiles.
It’s a power scouting, isn’t it?
I say the line I heard earlier.
You got it. While at it, we’re going to get them scared. We have to tell the Yakuza that Kuromori is much more dangerous than them
If I join up in this power scouting group,
And I keep a composted attitude as Margo-san goes wild,
Then the Yakuza would be cautious of me during the deal.
I don’t have the fighting power as much as Margo-san or Edie has,
But, if they become cautious of me, then I can break their concentration.
Okay, I’m going too
Sensei, it’s dangerous to go!
Nii-san
Yomiko and Luna cling to my arms.
No, if you say that, going here now is dangerous enough
I smile at the two.
It’s okay. I’ve got experience when it comes to danger. This much is nothing
Let’s leave it to Kou-sama
Tsukiko tells her sisters.
But, please be careful all the time
Yeah, I know
Edie-chan, protect Sensei, okay?
Nei-oneechan, please
Yomiko and Luna said.
Leave it to me
You don’t have to worry, you girls can go ahead
Okay, what’s left is
With that said, let’s go
I call Kudou Haruka.
eeh? Wait, why do I have to join the recon?
It seems like Haruka’s brain has paused from the shock.
Isn’t that obvious?
Nei replied laughingly.
Didn’t you promise to sell your body, Haruka-chi?
Kudou Haruka lost to a fight against Michi, and she promised to be a prostitute once.
She’s beaten to a pulp.
And that’s why we’re going to look for your partners!
Partners?
Well, I think it’s mostly old men with bad breath
Hey! Wait!
No waiting, Ah, but of course, Haruka-chi can’t decide who’s the partner but Yo-chan will!
Then.
That’s it, Yoshinobu-kun
Margo-san turns to me.
How about you let me decide on Kudou Haruka’s partner instead?
Margo-san?
The promise was for her to sell her body to somebody in here, right?
Yeah, it was
Then I’ve got a good idea
Yikes, she’s planning something.
I guess I have to let her do it.
Sure, I’ll leave it to Margo-san
What are you saying?
Kudou Haruka panics
If she decides who’ll be my partner who knows what kind of horrible experience I will go through?
Yeah, give up
I said.
Hey! Michi! Say something! Your sister’s virginity is in danger!
Good luck
Michi says coldly.
Geez! Kii! What the hell is wrong with you!
Then.
Edie’s toes stop right in front of Haruka’s eyes.
Just a few more millimeters and her high-kick would break the forehead.
You’re too noisy. Weak yet noisy
She bumps Haruka’s forehead lightly.
That’s right. Aneue’s weak and yet she’s too noisy
Michi said.
Me, weak?
Yes. You should accept the fact already
Haruka’s silenced from what her sister said.
Now then, Shou-neechan, if you don’t mind, could you accompany us along the way?
Margo-san tries to brighten up the atmosphere.
I don’t know much about the inside of the hotel, and even if we join them back in the 16th floor, there’s plenty of Kouzuki SS in civilian clothes stationed over there. I don’t like them stopping me every step I take If someone from Kouzuki SS is with us, then they won’t bother.
Shall I go instead?
Rei-chan offers her service, but,
Reika-oneesan, you’re too popular in here
Margo-san smiled wryly.
Indeed, it would be a problem if the Yakuza reacts to Reika-san too
Minaho-neesan said.
We can see those whose complexion change when they see Edie, but,
If we have Rei-chan, a celebrity, the Yakuza would only pay attention to her while feeling high-tension.
It would be hard to find the subtle emotional changes.
Kinoshita, if you’d please
Shou-neechan ordered Banba-san,
It hasn’t been long since Kinoshita joined in Kouzuki SS, and so she shouldn’t be known well. She also looks fragile and cute, so the Yakuza shouldn’t be too cautious with her
Even so, she’s carrying a thick and long flail.
Guide Margo-san around and then take them to the 16th floor in the end
Yes. Certainly, uhm, by the way, Seki-san
Kinoshita-san asks.
I can’t cause troubles with the Yakuza no matter what?
Shou-neechan.
Not really, If you feel you’re in danger then fight them. They can’t do anything as long as it’s within the scope of legal self-defense
Understood!
Kinoshita-san smiled like a blooming flower.
She looks cute and timid, but,
She’s quite strong.
She beat up old man Dai Grepher mercilessly after all.
Then, we’ll be heading to the 16th floor first
Shou-neechan opens the elevator.
It’s a large elevator.
Be careful
Minho-neesan gets into the elevator following Shou-neechan.
See you later, Kou-sama
We’ll be waiting for Sensei
Nii-san, later
Leave these people to me
Margo-san Kinoshita-san. If you’d please
Tsukiko, Yomiko, Luna, Michi, Rei-chan goes to the elevator.
Lastly, Taki-san also gets in the elevator.
We’ll be joining you up soon
I said, then the elevator door closes.
Yo-chan, you feel lighter now?
Nei asks me, smiling.
Your stomach would hurt if we go and meet up with Kouzuki-ojiichan right away, won’t it?
Yeah.
It helps that I’m given time to think.
I have to ask Jii-chan to hand over the Takakura sisters to me instead of turning them to prostitutes.
Then, let’s be on our way too
Yes, please get inside the elevator
Kinoshita-san opens the elevator leading to the first floor.
This elevator seems to have fingerprint verification too.
Kinoshita-san’s fingerprint is registered, then that means,
She’s already recognized as a member of the top elites.
Uhm, back then, Kinoshita-san saved me. Thanks for that
My, when was it?
Kinoshita-san’s making a curious face.
Well, it was on the day Cesario Viola attacked. While Misuzu, Ruriko, and Shou-neechan were driving the car from the theater to the hotel. I was also in that car
Hmm? Err, then that means, it was when I was in my previous team?
Yeah, that’s right
Kinoshita-san blushed.
i was a bit rude back then
Not at all, I’m the one who received help back then
No, but, you know how I dressed back then, right? It’s a black history for me. I want to bury them in the dark!
Oh, right.
I’m grateful to my previous team, however, thinking why they forced me to look like that, it embarrasses me now
Yeah, you dressed similarly to the other ones
What?
Kinoshita-san’s face turned stiff.
If I recall, it was micro bikini and hot pants. Then, a Japanese sword on your shoulder, riding a motorbike without a helmet, and then a flamethrower
aahh! You really knew it! Forget it! Forget it! Please forget about it!
Kinoshita-san beats on my shoulders.
O-ouch. It hurts.
Though she looks fragile, she’s quite strong.
Oh, this is.
I better not tell her that I saw all of her fights through the camera in the hotel.
Okay. I’ll forget it
Really?
Her hands stop knocking on me.
Yes, I promise
Then that’s great!
What’s with her.
Darling, hurry, Banba-chan too
Edie enters the elevator.
Uhm, what did you say just now?
Kinoshita-san’s face turned stiff again.
I know that you’re Banba from Banbarubie3
Don’t say that name!
Kinoshita-san covers Edie’s mouth.
I am Kinoshita! Kinoshita Ryoukokokokokokokoko!
Ah, even though she feels grateful to Barbie-san and Ruby-san.
She really didn’t like her black history as Banba-chan.
how do you know my black history!
Then, Margo-san,
You see, we had another fight on that hotel
What?
I mean, We were with Shou-neechan and Rei-chan. Yazawa-san and Kouzuki-ojiichan were also there. That’s why we know
Nei smiled.
By the way, Yo-chan here is the one who finished off Cesario Viola
You don’t have to say that.
We’re in the same trade then?
Edie and me only. He and Nei are members of Kuromori, but they’re not fighters. Oh, also, this one’s just a brat, an amateur
Margo-san points at Kudou Haruka.
Yes, I knew it. Banba-chan’s strong
Edie smiled.
Edie, call her Kinoshita-san from now on
I said.
She’s Kinoshita-san now
Okay, sorry about that Kinoshita. Let’s get along
Edie bows her head.
Kinoshita-san;
Ahahahahaha, as long as you understand. But, please try not to tell anyone about my past if possible
She sighed.
Banbarubie3 is recorded as killed in action
Huh?
Chapter 729
No, look, the story was Banbarubie 3 stuck dynamite in their stomach and made a Kamikaze attack on the Iron space men’s base
What kind of setting is that?
Well, it must be Barbie-san’s idea.
Or maybe, Kyouko-san.
She probably told Barbie-san and Ruby-san to abandon the glory of their past if they want to follow her.
What’s Iron spacemen?
Edie asks.
Well, I don’t know either, but I heard that they’re a gathering of railway enthusiast and ramen lovers
Banba-san, no, Kinoshita Ryouko-san replies with a straight face.
So, which part of space they came from?
Well, they’re aliens. They’re evil aliens who plan to conquer earth and railway and ramen enthusiasts
It ends up like that.
With that said, please refrain from talking about my past
Kinoshita-san bows her head.
She’s fundamentally an honest and cute person.
Although she’s quite unfit for the society.
She’s holding a long flail, and it’s clanking.
She’s carrying a weapon full of mass and destructive power like it’s normal.
Props to her not getting stopped by the police and security guards.
Although, even though she carries such a heavy weapon, if they see that it’s Kinoshita-san who’s carrying it, they probably don’t care much about it.
She’s soft-looking after all.
Anyway, let’s go up
Margo-san, Nei, Edie, Kudou Haruka, Kinoshita-san, and I take the elevator heading to the first floor.
you’re a full-time employee in Kouzuki SS, right?
Kudou Haruka asks Kinoshita-san.
Yes, what about it?
Err, how did you enter?
She hasn’t given up on joining Kouzuki SS.
In my case, I joined in midway. The leader of my previous team referred me
Kinoshita-san replies with a cute smile.
Then, is that person also working for Kouzuki SS now?
No, my previous team are now working for an international criminal organization
What?
Haruka shows a suspicious look.
We do chat sometimes. They seem to be working hard in committing international criminal acts
I mean, they’re fighting Rei-chan once a month.
As expected, not even Kinoshita-san would mention Kyouko Messer’s name.
Uhm, I’m in third-year high school right now, and I thought of looking for a job similar to yours
Oh, Kudou Haruka thinks that Kinoshita-san’s in the same age group as her.
Though she looks young, she’s an adult already.
Much older than Haruka.
If that’s the case, do you want me to recommend you to international crime groups?
Kinoshita-san smiles.
Last week, they chatted me that they want a young and cheerful cannonball
Cannonball?
Oh, it’s not always filled with scary people. They say that they only need someone to get in an office and take down the whole gang or something
Kinoshita-san laughs.
Oh that one, I did that. There was a time limit
Edie grins.
That reminds me. Kyouko-san and Cordelia raided the office of the gangs related to Shirasaka Sousuke.
The first room has the most fun as the other side isn’t ready to intercept yet. It’s a speed match. The room of the leader was quite hard. He was waiting with a pistol after all
Indeed. It gets harder as you progress
Haruka listens to the conversation between the two.
Margo-oneechan and I often beat down delinquents and gangs in the city quite often. Yo-chan was with us one time
Nei joins in the conversation.
Huh, Haruka-chi, could it be that you have no experience?
there’s no way I could have!
Then, Kinoshita-san;
Those who look strong will have to pick fights and win them no matter what method used. If you can’t train close to actual combat, then you can’t work here
Err.
Ah, although you can’t pick a fight with pro-wrestlers or those who fight for work. Also, no athletes either. Your target should be those called strong in the underground society. You can even give those people surprise attacks Surprise attacks are okay?
That’s obvious! That’s how this world works. Back when I was in my previous team, we do it often
Banbarubie-3 pick fights here and there after all.
For example, throwing a grenade at the poolside It goes bang! Boom! Kaboom!
Haa, I see
Kudou Haruka sighs.
If you want, Haruka-san, Edie, Kinoshita-san, and I are all fighters, you can pick a fight with us anytime
Margo-san said.
If you can land a single hit on me then I’ll ask Shou-oneesan to put you in the company. Do you mind, Kinoshita-san?
Yes, that’s okay! Anytime!
Kinoshita-san answered without hesitation. Then the elevator arrived on the first floor.
The door opens.
Oh, this is indeed a warehouse.
Okay! Come over here, everyone!
Kinoshita-san swings her flail like a tourist guide flag and leads the way.
She unlocks the fingerprint authentication lock on the door, and we head to the aisle behind the lobby of the hotel.
Although the Yakuza gathers on the upper floor, the hotel itself is open like usual.
It’s Sunday, and so it’s filled with people.
Oh, there’s also Kouzuki SS in plain clothes here
Margo-san says that but,
I can’t tell which one is a security officer from not.
Even if you see one, don’t stare at them. That’s their method of security
Unlike when Yamaoka was the security director in May, there are no uniformed guards lined up.
The talented top elites protect people while looking ordinary.
It’s very much Shou-neechan’s style of security measures.
Nobody’s trying to make contact with Kinoshita-san either.
They know each other, and so they won’t let the enemy perceive it.
She brings us to the elevator near the front desk while her flail clanks a lot.
Still.
What’s with that stick?
How does one use it?
A cute and delicate looking woman carrying a thick and long striking weapon has attracted a lot of attention in the hotel.
Err, is that okay? Shouldn’t you put it in a case or wrap it with a cloth?
Kudou Haruka whispers to Kinoshita-san as she’s unable to bear the gazes of people.
If I do that, then I can’t use it right away when the enemy attacks
Kinoshita-san replies with a nonchalant face.
Besides, I’m the frontline, and so I have to stand out
What’s that?
Geez, she doesn’t even know that?
If someone’s holding out a weapon in the lobby of the hotel, that’ll show that they’re from Kozuzki SS
The Yakuza from Kansai who came to Tokyo are all isolated on the upper floors.
That is on paper.
However, it’s possible that the enemy or their friends come into this lobby, isn’t it?
Yesterday, the Yakuza chased after the Takakura sisters in Tokyo.
There’s also the Yakuza who comes to protect the two big bosses who came for the deal.
Also, the other Yakuza heavyweights who came to observe and their bodyguards as well.
Only those people are on the upper floor.
Naturally, they could send in another group, pose as ordinary people, and invade this hotel.
Frontline has to stand out and hunts the enemies who react. Is that it?
Margo-san smiles.
Yes, That’s right!
I see now why it’s not Shou-neechan nor Taki-san, but Kinoshita-san who came with us.
She stands out a lot.
But, from ordinary people, they can’t imagine such a cute girl in a fight.
Nobody will notice that her flail is a weapon,
Thanks for the hard work!
In front of the elevator is as expected, a professional security guard.
It’s a macho man in a black suit.
He’s got a radio on his ear.
Feel free
As expected of a pro. He doesn’t speak of anything unnecessary.
He probably received instructions from Shou-oneechan before we could reach here.
Thanks
Nei thanked the macho man.
We board the elevator.
Give me a second. The general customers can’t get to 10th to 16th floors
Seems like the elevator also has a fingerprint verification system.
She opens the cover under the button for the floor.
So, what floor are we going in?
Kinoshita-san asks while operating the touch panel that appeared.
Err.
If I recall, Jii-chan’s on the 16th floor. Shou-neechan, Rei-chan, Minaho-neesan, the Takakura sisters, and Michi are all there too.
Floor 10 and 15 are locked down due to considerations
This is to make sure that Jii-chan or the guests won’t be bothered.
And thus, they created an empty space one floor above and below.
Then, on the 11th floor, is the group of Kansai Unryu, led by Satake
The start of this case was the death of Tsukiko’s parents and the hijacking of Takakura shrine.
It’s said that they’re a rising power in Kansai Yakuza.
The 12th floor is where the bosses who will watch the deal and their guards are
Okay.
In the 13th floor is where the group of Oodori of Kansai Raijin is staying
This one is a veteran Yakuza. He’s also Tsukiko’s real father.
I see. By putting the observers in the middle, both parties won’t pick a fight with each other.
What’s in the 14th floor?
Edie asks.
The 14th floor is a banquet hall, it will be the venue for today’s ceremony
I see.
Then, let’s go to the 13th floor
Margo-san said.
We’ve met with Satake-san’s subordinates in the underground parking lot earlier, so let’s meet Oodori-san’s people this time
I see.
Besides, I’ve got a minor business with the Yakuza
Margo-san grins.
Understood. 13th floor it is!
Kinoshita-san pushed a button, and the elevator goes up smoothly.
Are you not scared?
Kudou Haruka asks me.
Huh, why?
I mean, it’s the Yakuza. There’s a lot of them. And it’s all Yakuza in that floor
I get what she means by that.
Yakuza isn’t that scary. I’m here with everyone too
I said.
Huh, what are you talking about? Are you an idiot? Do you want to die?
No, look, they’re not some Russian corps bringing machine guns, or the boss of a legendary crime group in Los Angeles, are they?
That’s what happened with Cesario Viola’s case.
By the way, we gave them a body check beforehand, not a single one of them has a pistol at least
Kinoshita-san said.
That’s where Jii-chan and the big guys from Yakuza would gather.
If one brings in their weapons and it would violate courtesy, and they can’t complain if they’re killed when found out.
At least what the hell?
I think it would be impossible for them to carry a pistol, but they could bring in weapons that could slip through body check
Kinoshita-san said composed.
Huh?
Then, Edie pulls out a shuriken from her skirt.
Do you want one?
no thanks!
Haruka rejects after seeing the bright, sharp point.
I see. You know, Michi has this too. I thought that since you’re Michi’s sister, I should give you one
Then, she hides it under her skirt.
Pipi! 13th floor!
The elevator announces.
Okay, concentrate everyone. Nei and Yoshinobu-kun, stay in the middle
What about me?
I don’t care, do what you want
Margo-san laughs at Haruka.
Then, the door opens.
Ugh
Kudou Haruka raised her voice unconsciously.
This is an elevator hall, yet the place is filled with Yakuza.
It’s filled with men in black clothes in their late 20s, and up to age 40 bad looking, old men.
Some lay on the floor carpet.
Sitting like they’re about to take a shit.
All of them look like they’re coming from one group.
Thanks for the hard work!
Kinoshita-san greets the guard from Kouzuki SS protecting the elevator.
The guards salute to Kinoshita-san as well.
Oh, I knew it, Kinoshita-san’s status is on the top elites.
There are four people in charge of this location. As expected, it’s another macho man, just like in the lobby.
Though the clothes look similar, the difference is clear to see that Kouzuki SS people wear good clothes and have a sense of cleanliness.
Well, that’s obvious.
They’re a security firm specializing in distinguished families, their behavior and elegance are required.
With the change of head from Yamaoka to Shou-neechan, the overall feel of it has improved.
Hey! What’s with this! The elevator’s not working!
One of the Yakuza yells out.
Hey! Keep that door open! I’m going down!
Aniki, I’m coming with you!
Me too!
Yah!
They’re coming to the elevator in great numbers, but,
The orders are not to let anyone go to another floor until the ceremony is over
The guards from Kouzuki SS blocks the Yakuza.
Don’t fuck with us! I just want to light some smokes
Are you saying that Aniki can’t smoke for a bit? Huh?
I just want to drink canned coffee!
I want to breathe the outside air!
Besides, why is it that the hotel rooms ban smoking!
What the hell!
Seriously!
Just what the hell is going on!
Yeah!
What the fuck!
Yeah!
What the hell!
The Yakuza in the elevator floor tries to push through the guards with an angry face.
Oh my, you guys look impatient
Margo-san laughs wryly.
It can’t be helped, those in here are the underling of underlings
I see. The higher ranked men are in the back rooms.
The lower-positioned Yakuza has no place to stay, and so they’re all here.
Hey now! At least bring us some alcohol. Why the hell are you not serving us!
Yeah! This is poor service!
Hotels are service business, aren’t they?
Look, you’re not even customers.
Look at it though, the ladies that came in are all beauties
Right. Hey, come over here, girls!
This old man has some interesting stories to give you!
I mean, how about you become my woman?
Oh, they’re going with pranks now.
They’ve been locked up in this floor for so long that they feel gloomy, they want to get high all at once.
Takasaki Ichiro-san, the leader. Do you know where he is?
Margo-san asks the Yakuza with a smile.
Then.
what. You know Takasaki Aniki?
There’s unrest within the Yakuza.
No, not at all. It will be my first time meeting him. I don’t think he knows me either
what the hell, don’t scare us like that
The Yakuza feels relieved.
Is Takasaki that scary?
I want to see him. The living legend of Kansai Raijin Houkai. One of the four Devas. Living Foe Takasaki Ichiro
Margo-san smiles.
are you serious?
What are you talking about? Did I not make myself clear? And so, which room is Takasaki Ichiro’s room?
The Yakuza quiets down for a moment.
Takasaki Aniki’s in room 1304
I see, thanks
Margo-san moves in the middle of the Yakuza men.
Hey, let’s go now!
Nei said. And so we follow.
Come
O-Okay
Kudou Haruka’s clinging to Edie and me.
Okay okay! Going through!
Kinoshita-san swings around her flail and protects our back.
Hey! Wait!
Don’t think we’d let you go in that easily!
We’re going to contact Takasaki Aniki’s underling so give us a second!
The Yakuza tries to stop us while looking flustered.
They’re here to guard the higher-ups after all.
We can’t just barge in without their permission.
Anyway, just wait here!
Don’t go on your own!
The Yakuza in black clothes surrounds us.
Then.
Gywashan!
Kinoshita-san’s flail drops on the floor.
DA-RE-DE-SU-Kaa?1
what?
Someone just touched my butt just now!
Did someone touch Kinoshita-san’s ass while pretending to hold us back?
Ehehe, you’ve got a nice ass, so I unconsciously did
One of the Yakuza scoffed.
So it’s you!
Bachikoon!
The flail smashed the man’s head.
Pigii!
Blood squirted from the man’s nose, and he’s blown to the wall.
Hey! What are you doing!
Seeing the open hostility, the Yakuza’s also heating up.
Isn’t it natural for maidens to protect their lives when they feel that they’re in danger?
Ah, so that’s why Shou-neechan told Kinoshita-san that earlier.
To fight if she feels that she’s in danger.
Touching your ass is not a big deal you know!
That’s right bitch! Why did you have to beat him?
Bitch!
The Yakuza shows hostility to Kinoshita-san.
That kind of attitude is a declaration of war! Counterattack!
Buoon!
The flail moves as fast as the wind.
Bakii!
Dokaa!
Bachikoon!
Three Yakuzas faints in a blink of an eye.
You should apologize to her as soon as possible
Margo-san tells the Yakuza.
We’re sorry for touching your ass, Kinoshita-san from Kouzuki SS, go ahead
that’s. Bitch!
do you think men have to apologize?
I mean, we didn’t touch her at all!
Yeah, if you want us to apologize then let us touch them first. Give is an hour of massage!
I mean, I want to fuck!
Bakii!
Dokaa!
Bachikoon!
Kinoshita-san’s strong. Seriously strong.
I won’t allow any more violence than this!
No, look, Kinoshita-san’s the one conducting a genocide.
Huh, could it be?
One of the middle-aged Yakuza points at Kinoshita-san.
Oh right, I remember now. That weapon, that movement
Hey, do you know her? Raiden Aniki?
Yeah, I’ve seen her on Singapore once before
Kinoshita-san panics.
I’m not! I think! I’ve never been to Singapore!
No, I’m sure of it. I didn’t notice it earlier because you’re wearing a high-quality dress, but I remember it now! You’re!
With this much Yakuza around, there has to be someone who’s seen Banba-chan from Banbarubie-3.
i told you no!
Kinoshita-san tries to deny it desperately, but.
You’re Danta from Danboro-3!
Err.
The hall quiets down.
No, I’m not
Kinoshita-san replied with a blank look.
Then.
Ah, I remember it now!
Another Yakuza points at Kinoshita-san!
She’s that one from Banbarubie-3! Banba!
Right at the next moment.
The genocide resumed.
Forget it! Forget it! Forget all that you’ve heard just now!
Baki!
Dokaa!
Bachikon!
Bakii!
Dokaa!
Bachikoon!
Kinoshita-san didn’t stop her flail.
until all of the Yakuza in the elevator are down.
Chapter 730
what the hell?
What’s going on?
What the hell did you do?
Hearing the genocide noises, Kinoshita-san created in the elevator hall;
The Yakuza in black clothes from the rooms comes out.
Haa, haa, haa, haa
Kinoshita-san’s flail makes sounds, and her fighting stance isn’t broken.
What? There’s 40, no, 50 people down here!
Isn’t that one from Kouzuki SS?
This is definitely going to blow off the deal!
Oh no! a fight! What are we going to do?
Well, yeah.
Jii-chan’s about to have a deal with the two big bosses of Kansai Yakuza, and yet,
Someone from Kouzuki SS took down over 40 of Yakuza underlings.
This will definitely suspend the deal.
So noisy! Will you quiet down bastards!
A voice from the mass of black-clothed Yakuza echoes.
Give way for me! Give way, underlings!
The crowd of Yakuza quickly splits to two.
Then, coming from the back.
A middle-aged man wearing a white suit walks in carrying a dense atmosphere.
What’s with him? His suit is white, and his necktie is gold. It’s the color of money.
Behind that man are five men wearing black clothes but with different colored neckties accompanying him.
Each of them wears red, blue, green, black, and another red necktie.
They’re not all different.
There’s two wearing red.
Ooh, Tokuda aniki!
Tokuda Aniki and the rainbow 5
Oh boy! It’s gonna rain blood in here!
Tokuda, the man in a white suit, and his five subordinates lead the Yakuzas.
Care to explain what’s going on?
Tokuda glares at us.
Who are you?
Margo-san grins.
If you’re showing off by speaking then how about you start by introducing yourself?
Tokuda gets sullen.
What? You don’t know my name?
Margo-san?
As you can see, I’m an American, is there a reason for me to know everyone in the Japan Yakuza?
I’m American too!
Edie grins.
As for me, I’m just a high school girl, I don’t know anything about Yakuza Yo-chan’s the same!
Nei smiles at me.
yeah
Haruka-chi, do you know who that old man is?
there’s no way I would
Kudou Haruka’s family works for Kouzuki SS, but,
Haruka herself doesn’t know any information about the Yakuza from Kansai.
Ah, could it be that you’re that kind, old man?
Nei pours oil to the fire.
You thought that you’re too famous, and so you walk around as they all fear you, but actually, you’re still a nobody
Tokuda’s cheeks twitched in reaction.
Kukukuku, that’s lame!
Having a superior beauty like Nei ridicule him makes him not want to lose face as a man.
Totally lame!
Edie joins Nei and scoffs at him.
You two shut up already!
Kudou Haruka shouts at Nei.
They’re Yakuza! Furthermore, they feel like they can do things while looking bossy, don’t they? As for me, I’ve never heard, seen, or known him, but, he must be a well-known person in the Yakuza world!
Look, Haruka.
Yours was the worst one that could’ve been said to the person. Look at him.
No. Tokuda-san is a really popular guy, you know!
Kinoshita-san says while swinging around her flail.
Tokuda Toranosuke and the rainbow five is one of the four major powers under Oodori’s leadership, they’re called the Living 4
Oh, so it’s the four devas they’re talking about.
Oh look, you’re the only one studying here!
Tokuda regains his self-confidence and smiles.
If I recall, Tokuda-san is the weakest among the four devas and is a disgrace among the living four
Kinoshita-san talks to us with a nonchalant-serious face.
Yoo! She said it.
She’s definitely dead now
Shit! This is definitely going downhill!
The crowd of Yakuza screams in horror.
Lady, you seem to be misunderstanding something here
Tokuda talks to Kinoshita-san as his emotions about to burst out.
Yes? What’s wrong?
Kinoshita-san replies without care.
In my 25 years of Yakuza life, it’s my first time being mocked this much. Bastards, make this lady realize what she’s done!
Tokuda orders his five subordinates to move.
Hahaa! Let’s go!
One of the red-neckties calls out to the remaining four.
But.
Hey, wait! Why are you standing before me? Why are you trying to look like the leader here?
One of the red neckties complains.
Isn’t that obvious? Rainbow 5’s leader is Rainbow red
I’m not accepting that! I’m red! As for you, go with yellow or pink instead!
don’t joke with me! Who in their right minds would go for pink?
Then Yellow!
Lately, it’s also women wearing yellow!
I thought you loved curry though?
There’s only two curry lovers as yellow in our generation!
What the hell!
Are you guys from elementary school?
No, I guess children from kindergarten still act and play as Sentai1.
No, there was a season where there are two reds, right?
Kinoshita-san cuts in as she’s unable to watch any longer.
At that moment.
CHANCE!
Behold my secret technique! Human Niagara Waterfalls!
Ah, that’s dangerous.
All five of them come to attack Kinoshita-san at once.
Yes, what about it?
Kinoshita-san bursts them out with her flail.
Dadoon!
Gyashaan!
Doouugaan!
Bishii!
Gowaan!
What do you mean by chance?
Kinoshita-san says that while looking curious.
As she watches the rainbow 5 falls down.
She’s like a demon, no, she’s stronger than them.
The Yakuza guys fell silent.
However.
Yoo, she really did it
That’s the end for her
Yeah, she was cute and all
Tokuda Aniki really got her
She’s got no chance of winning now
The Yakuza in black clothes whisper to each other.
what?
Is Tokuda that strong?
Then, Tokuda moves forward and looks down on his subordinates.
Then, he looked like he’s holding back his tears.
Red necktie, blue necktie, black necktie, green necktie, and the other red necktie!
He clenches his fist.
It must’ve hurt. It must’ve been painful! This Tokuda will surely win against her!
Then, he glares at Kinoshita-san.
Then.
That’s 50 Million
What?
Tokuda opens his hand and gives Kinoshita-san a 5 sign.
Their medical treatment costs ten million each. In total, 50 Million. I’ll have you pay it up in full
what?
You used up violence on my followers who weren’t even resisting. You reap what you sow
No, look.
It’s Tokuda’s subordinates who attacked first.
Isn’t that legitimate self-defense for Kinoshita-san?
Hey, pay up 50 million now. Rainbow white! Rainbow Violet! Come out!
Tokuda looks back, and two small men wearing a white, and violet necktie shows up.
Err, Rainbow White. I’m a doctor. Oh my, these five were given a beating. I can tell even without giving them an exam. Yes. The treatment costs of these five will definitely take more than 20 million!
Rainbow Violet here, I’m a lawyer. I’ve worked as a judge and prosecutor before. I’ve got connections to the public prosecutors’ office. Yes, that’s 30 million. Tokuda-sama’s correct. This doesn’t need to go to trial, you have to settle 30 million yen Hmm.
There’s five down, and two new showed up. Seven colored neckties.
Oh! So that’s the rainbow.
As usual, you’re a dirty player, Tokuda Aniki
But, him using his subordinates’ life as a stepping stool for making money is what made him climb up the ladder
That’s the story of his success
Thinking about the five colored neckties who passed away, my tears won’t stop
Hearing the Yakuza’s voices from behind, Tokuda speaks to the five;
Don’t hate me for this. Red necktie, blue necktie, black necktie, green necktie, and also red necktie! You were born in the wrong era!
Err.
Uhm, I made sure to adjust the strength, so I just knocked their brains, they’re not dead yet
Kinoshita-san says in amazement.
You fool! Having a lass like you knock a man out means death! It’s basically death to us Yakuza!
No, they’re not dead
Even if they’re not dead, their medical expenses would cost 20 million. I’m a doctor, there’s no mistake here
White necktie says.
Yes, the settlement fee would cost 30 million even if they’re not dead. I’m a lawyer, so there’s no mistake.
That’s 50 million in total! Now, pay up! Now! Now! Now!
Tokuda stirs up the Yakuza in the back.
Now!
Now!
Now!
Now! Now! Now!
Kinoshita-san looks puzzled.
Although, someone like you can’t pay us up 50 million right away, right?
Tokuda grins.
And this is where Rainbow gold comes in, Tokuda Toranosuke from Naiwa
what?
My core business is money lending. That’s right, I’ll let my cute lady borrow 50 million yen from me
Moneylender?
There it is! Tokuda Aniki’s killer technique!
It’s known as the Three year’s death plan!
She’ll definitely get worked to the bone!
Tokuda takes out a thin sheet from his pocket.
In there, the paper says, Acknowledgement of debt. 50000000 Yen
If you sign here, your problems will all go away, and we’ll keep quiet about what happened today. To think that I’m giving you the compromise, surely you can resolve this in a year time, right? White necktie?
I’m a doctor, and so let me tell you this, you should sign it. You’re in luck! If you sign in here, all your problems will go away!
No, look, there’s nothing concrete written on this paper at all! Besides, there’s too much blank space after the numbers, I can see you adding as many numbers as you like there!
Kinoshita-san said.
Yeah, they can edit the amount, or even the time frame for repayment later.
Err, I’m a lawyer, so I don’t see any problems there. Trust me
I don’t!
But I’m a lawyer though. I’ve worked as a judge and prosecutor before. I’ve got connections in the public prosecutors’ office
Now, sign in here! Else, you can give it your thumbprint instead! Although, you’re not a big-tiddy type girl. Lol. 2 Kukukukuku!
Tokuda’s vulgar laugh echoes in the elevator.
Then, Kinoshita-san;
My breasts have nothing to do with this!
She unscrews the top of the flail and takes off the massive lump of mass attached to it.
Err, I’m a lawyer, but what are you doing?
Kinoshita-san ignores the guy with violet necktie’s words and takes out a metal lump from her back.
It’s some thorny golden spike or something, looks massive and painful.
You’ll definitely die if you get hit.
The leader of my previous team told me. My flail’s destructive power is too strong, and so take off the spear on the tip
And that’s what she’s done so far.
Err, you’ll keep quiet about this, right?
Kinoshita-san looks at us.
Yeah, of course, Yo-chan, Edie, and Haruka-chi won’t say a thing, right?
Nei says in panic after sensing the atmosphere.
Of course, I’ll stay quiet about this. I won’t remember what’s going to happen
Margo-san replies with a smile.
Thanks
Kinoshita-san looks at the Yakuza once again.
Then, what’s left is to slaughter all of the Yakuza in here, and there’s no problem
Jarararaan!
Her flail makes an ominous sound.
There’s a saying Dead men tell no tales. I don’t have to think about paying for the medical fee and settlement if they’re dead, right? Then, all I have to do is erase all witnesses!
Kinoshita-san looks cute but,
She’s still trained by Barbie-san and Ruby-san.
If you think that she’s an average person, then you’re making a big mistake.
hey! Wait!
Tokuda looks confused.
I’m not that smart, sure, but. I don’t like the way you all look down on me!
Kinoshita-san grabbed her flail and said.
Besides, once I undress, I look amazing!
Juba!
fungii!
Tokuda flew out with great momentum and hit the wall.
It looked like a human home run.
Uhm, I’m a doctor though
I’m a lawyer, I’ve connections with the public prosecutors’ office
No more arguments!
Doka! Byuwaa!
Kabanchoon!
Fudanbaa!
Ah, white and violet necktie flies away while bleeding in their nose.
Oh, they fainted.
Now, are you all ready?
Kinoshita-san swings around her flail.
The golden spike makes a rhythmic sound.
That’s berserker
At the moment one of the Yakuza mutters that line.
Let’s leave it to that
A voice of a woman is heard.
Ah, Nee-san?
A middle-aged woman in Japanese clothes shows from the back.
She must’ve been beautiful back in her age. Her eyes are big, and the shape of her face is gorgeous.
However, she’s quite chubby now.
Her hair is dyed red like the ladies in Shitamachi.
I’d like to ask for forgiveness for Tokuda’s disrespect
She bows to Kinoshita-san.
We’ve been watching what happened until now over there, it’s all these guys’ fault. It’s our side who made the first move. You were just protecting yourself. We’re sorry for the inconvenience!
Then, she speaks to the Yakuza in black around.
You all have seen it? This lady hasn’t done anything wrong. It’s our side who was wrong, am I right?
The woman in Japanese clothes appealed, the Yakuza;
yes, Nee-san. You’re right!
She didn’t do anything wrong
It’s our side who was wrong!
Looking at it again, she doesn’t have a bad shape
I mean, she’s quite voluptuous!
Err.
And that’s what my guys say. Could you forgive us for respect’s sake? Please
She bows her head.
Seems like the plan worked
Margo-san whispered.
If we chip off more men, Oodori’s guards would be gone
Kinoshita-san already took down 50 men.
Besides, the message from Kouzuki SS saying that they don’t intend to behave modestly with the Yakuza is conveyed. If they don’t tone this down, all of the members who came to Tokyo would be annihilated
You can assume that as soon as Kinoshita-san comes here
Nei said.
Oh, this is a message from jii-chan saying that he doesn’t intend to have a simple deal.
That he’s not afraid of Yakuza.
That if they look down on him, they’re all dead.
If this goes on and Oodori’s force decrease further, it’s possible that a unit from Satake could come and assassinate them
I see.
The people who came with Oodori are in this place.
The decline of his guards creates risk in his life.
Please raise your head. If you’re going that far, then I’ll forget all that happened
Kinoshita-san said.
Oh my, we’re going to sweep the slate clean? Thank you. You all say your thanks as well!
Thank you
We’re sorry, voluptuous lady
It’s our fault, voluptuous lady
Err.
no, I’m not that voluptuous
Kinoshita-san’s cheeks blushed red.
Seeing her like that, she’s definitely a cute girl, but still,
Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself
Then, the violet-haired chubby lady looked at us.
I am Morisawa Mami from Kansai Raijin Houkai
Oh, one of the living 4, Creepy Mami-san, is it?
Margo-san smiles.
She’s also one of Oodori’s four devas.
Indeed, I am called that as well
Morisawa Mami replied calmly.
And so, what does a worker from Kouzuki SS need? I’m sorry, but our boss doesn’t intend to meet anyone currently
No, we didn’t come here to meet up with Oodori-san
Margo-san replies
I am Margo Starkweather Kuromori. As my name says, I’m from Kuromori. And it is you who need something from us
Morisawa Mami’s expression changed.
Kinoshita-san from Kouzuki SS is just a clerk at the information desk who guided us here. Yet, you tried to pick a fight with her and so this happened
My, is that so?
The violet-haired woman forces a laugh.
Indeed, these men are too impatient. I’m nothing like them. How is it? How about we start talking woman to woman
Oh, she knows that Kuromori is a women’s only group.
Perhaps, she knows that Margo-san is Minaho-neesan’s right hand.
No, sorry but I don’t want to meet you but instead Takasaki Ichiro-san of the Living four. There’s a separate matter I’d like to discuss
Is that so? That’s unfortunate
Morisawa Mami’s smiling but her eyes aren’t.
But, I also have something to talk about with Takasaki-san anyway. Anyway, I’m in standby together with the three
Three.
Yes. The last member of Living four. Gilbert O’Sullivan is in the room as well!
Chapter 731
Kanrai Raijin Houkai’s President Oodori’s four devas, one of the living four.
Creepy Mami, or Morisawa Mami, a woman with violet hair and wearing a Japanese dress leads the way.
We’re taken to the inner side of the hotel’s 13th floor.
There’s Yakuza in black clothes watching us from the corridors and other rooms.
They only stare, not speak.
They must fear this Morisawa Mami that much.
Before long, we reached the front of a single room.
Open up
Morisawa Mami glares at one of the black-clothed Yakuza standing watches for the door.
yes, Nee-san
The man in black clothes knocks on the door.
What?
A voice comes from the inside.
Ah, Nee-san is back!
I see. Enter
Hearing the voice from inside, the guard opens the door.
Come in first
Morisawa Mami tells Margo-san.
Well then, excuse me
Margo-san takes the lead and heads inside.
Margo-san, Nei, Kudou Haruka who’s still clinging to me, Edie, and then Kinoshita-san in the back.
The room’s filled with smoke from tobacco.
There are men with good physique lined up near the wall.
The one who opened the door earlier is one of these.
In short, they’re just bodyguards.
Oh, ah, ah! What the hell? Are you looking down on me? Chiyaa!
Then, in the back of the room are four men playing Mahjong.
And then, the man wearing an all-black sunglasses lays down his mahjong pieces while in a call.
Ah, Chiyachi. Hand over 30k from us. No, it’s ours. This got nothing to do with you. Oh, what did that Sugimori said? You mentioned my name? Huh? You mentioned my name, and yet he still asked for 30k? That brat’s looking down on me. Tell him that the upper limit is 20k. Any more than that would be impossible. Yeah, tell him that it’s tight. Sugimori’s friends with the previous generation but he’s not with me. That’s right. Make sure that it’s done in one go. RON! Got that 60k now! No, not you! You deal with that 20k! Better if we got Its He’s talking with someone on the phone, and yet.
Yeah, I’ll leave that to you. Contact me again once there’s progress. Okay?
The man wearing sunglasses ends the call, then the man making payment takes out his scoring chips respectfully.
Ooh, I’m the dealer next?
Yes, that’s right
We will have to end our match here. I have to give some time for Ren-chan too
Men start cleaning up, and the mahjong tiles are pushed down to the middle hole of the fully automatic sorter.
Guwacharara.
Jii, then a tile with a different back is raised.
Having it totally automatic made it easier, but it’s dull. They can’t load it after all
The man in glasses says laughingly, but the other three remain silent.
Maybe there’s a great difference between them?
Takasaki-san, I apologize for intruding your fun, but
Morisawa Mami calls out to the man.
Then that means that man wearing black sunglasses is Takasaki Ichiro, one of the living four.
What? I’m in the middle of rick relation? Do you not get it? Rick relation. Weren’t there a subject like that in middle school?
Takasaki-san, I think you meant recreation
Morisawa Mami sighs.
I see. I seriously thought it was Rick Relation
That’s wrong. They may sound alike, but recreation doesn’t have the sound of L anywhere
I see! Now I see!
Gahahaha! Takasaki laughs, but there’s nobody else laughing.
Mamii, it’s troublesome to have you here. They don’t try to retort no matter how much jokes I throw them
So he’s trying to make a joke.
Takasaki-san’s words are too noble. We never went to school, unlike Takasaki-san
Spare the flattery. I’ve dropped out in my third-year college in business school
I think just getting in there is impressive
I see, there’s that way of thinking too
Err.
What’s with this conversation.
However, these two are checking us out in secret while having that conversation.
They’re seeing what kind of company we are.
And so, what is it Mami, What’s your business?
After assuming his importance, Takasaki finally cuts to the chase.
It’s not me but these guests, they seem to have business with Takasaki-san
Oh, I see
Takasaki stares at us.
So, who is it? And what’s the business?
Then.
It’s me
Margo-san smiles.
Oh, let’s see. As you can see, I’m in the middle of something. Sorry but if you want to talk, talk to someone else. After all, I’m the dealer right now
Feel free
Takasaki resumes playing Mahjong.
He looked at his tiles, then,
The hell? What shitty tiles!
He throws in the first tile.
Then, who the hell are you anyway?
Oh, sorry about that. My name is Margo Starkweather Kuromori. As my title says, I’m from Kuromori
Margo-san says.
Huuh? Kuromori? Hey, does anyone here know Kuromori? Kuromori house?
No, not at all
Takeshi, what about you?
Never heard of it!
The guards near the wall shout loudly.
Sorry about that, even those from Osaka don’t know about Kuromori house
Takasaki laughs loudly.
You don’t have to know. I don’t know much about you either
Margo-san said.
However, there’s an individual person who told me that if I want to talk about martial arts industry, then I should give my greetings to Takasaki Ichiro-san
Takasaki looked at Margo-san.
Martial arts industry? You?
Yeah, that’s right. I was thinking of joining in as an athlete
Takasaki looks at Margo-san’s whole body once again.
You seem trained
That’s obvious. This is the body that will earn money after all
Margo-san smiles.
No, let’s stop this
Takasaki stops playing Mahjong.
Oh, he’s,
He’s the type that’s passionate about martial arts.
With your physique, you’re not going for pro wrestling but mixed martial arts? Women’s mixed martial arts isn’t popular. I’ve tried raising several of them, and they failed
Then, Margo-san
I wonder? I plan on succeeding though
She smiled.
Hah! But you see, that strong aura is just an aura. It would be impossible to sell female martial artists. You’ve got to have personality. Nowadays, you have to be a Crazy Psycho Lesbian1 to be known to some extent Takasaki seems to have a low evaluation of Margo-san as a fighter.
Thank you for that advice
Nevertheless, just one match isn’t enough for the show business. What can you do alone? Do you have other team members?
Oh, if that’s the case
Margo-san points at Edie and Kudou Haruka.
I have these two
Huh?
For this Japanese girl, Takasaki-san who loves martial arts should know her. She’s Kudou Haruka. She was the champion on girl’s high school karate last year. She must’ve been in the news or other outlets, hasn’t she? She’s quite a beauty after all hey! Wait!
Kudou Haruka panics.
Oh what is it? I thought I had your word that I can sell your body?
Margo-san presses Haruka.
that’s
Selling your body or competing, there’s nothing much different from them, which do you prefer though?
uhm
Kudou Haruka fell silent.
She doesn’t know what we’d make her do with the Yakuza if she tries to grumble.
And next to Haruka-san is Edie. She’s quite strong and cute as well. Furthermore, she’s also a schoolgirl
That’s right
Edie puffs her chest with pride.
Edie’s supple body can be seen even when she’s wearing clothes.
Naturally, her blonde hair, blue eyes, and brown skin show her beauty as well.
You can say that my marketability is low, but these girls will surely have enough. After all, the fighters are school girls and beauties
Takasaki stares at Haruka and Edie and thinks.
I mean, Margo, you’re still in 19. I think that you’ll even get famous as a beauty
Edie laughs, but,
I’m a warrior, I refrain from being called a beauty
Then, Takasaki
No, I don’t think it will work I don’t think the three of you will sell well
Then, he smiled at Margo-san.
Let’s see, how about you? Why don’t you entrust the promotion to me? This Takasaki Ichiro!
Takasaki bites.
Then, I’ll be looking for your opponents, the venue, and even the sponsors. That is much easier than forcing yourself into the industry, I think that this will go well, After all, when it comes to martial arts, I’ve got a lot of connections It seems that putting Margo-san aside, Edie and Kudou Haruka seems to have worth for Takasaki.
If that’s the case, he ‘s trying to affiliate himself with them as soon as possible.
I can bring along professionals like Yamaguchi Hideko or the Judo silver medalist Yokotani Madoka as your opponents. They have their names and skills well known but, they’re not that pretty. I think the world should know you girls better, for now, using your face will do. Wild beast VS beautiful warrior! will surely sell. It will be the talk of all the news outlets at the end of the year! Sabu, what do you think, will it work?
Yes, I think it will work!
Tatsu, what about you?
Aniki’s right!
What about Shigeharu?
It’s the best plan! Crazy Psycho Lesbians is perfect!
Yes, yes, naturally
Takasaki’s in a good mood.
I see. Indeed, there were former idolwrestlers who are popular because they look good. And there’s merit on trying to use beauties as materials again. Even if you lose, the viewers will cheer. The face of a woman in pain is sexy after all That’s right!
Takasaki’s getting excited.
Hey, Takasaki-san, it doesn’t look like these ladies want you to take care of them though?
Morisawa Mami looks at Margo-san’s expression and laughs.
Oh, sorry but I already have someone that’ll promote me
Margo-san turns down Margo-san’s offer.
what? Who’s that? Hey! Is it Temi? Mochizuki? Namba? Yoshihara? I’m sure that I’m better than them!
He glares at Margo-san with anger.
If it’s in Japan, Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyuushuu, Okinawa, or wherever it is, there’s no one who can go against me when it comes to martial arts! I’m definitely going to take them down! They’re dead meat!
Hii!
Kudou Haruka trembles and clings to me tighter.
I know. That’s why we’re going to have a match in America
Margo-san speaks calmly, hearing that, Takasaki’s complexion changed.
america?
Yeah, the location would be in Las Vegas, in UGM hotel, it’s already booked
you, what are you talking about?
I thank you for telling me that you don’t think that the women’s martial arts division has no appeal. I thought of the same thing. You’re right, if I just go in that route, I won’t be famous as a fighter. That’s why I decided to fight men instead men?
Takasaki’s surprised.
In my match in Las Vegas, my opponent there would be Piotr Gelgrenco!
Isn’t that the top in mixed martial arts for men?
I don’t think it will be famous unless we put it on that level, see?
Margo-san is going to have a match with a male mixed martial artist?
Well, I do plan on winning some fights in the women’s division first. It wouldn’t be balanced if I don’t have a title and yet I’m going to fight the king of martial arts from last year, don’t you think? It’s all for publicity. If I don’t show that I have unbounded strength even if I’m a woman, then the viewers won’t bite that, will they?
So are you saying that you can win against women without problems?
Margo-san grins.
She doesn’t respond.
Then, You’re just joking about Las Vegas and Gelgrenco
Not at all, I already talked to his manager
I can’t see you doing that!
Takasaki threatens Margo-san.
Gelgrenco’s manager is someone from the underground society of Los Angeles! I couldn’t even get a match set up with him!
Oh, Mr. Barbathua? I met him last month when I went to the US
Margo-san parted ways with us during summer vacation.
You’ve met him?
My teacher is Kyouko Messer. And so, Malandro of Brazil is in charge of solving my problems. While at it, I used my connection with Kyouko-san to talk with the organizations in Los Angeles. And thus, it went from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. It’s troublesome, but I’ve got my friends to rely on to clean up everything Miss Cordelia.
She’s an authority when it comes to the crime syndicates in Los Angeles.
The match would be broadcasted worldwide, and we also have specialists promoters. Takasaki-san, do you know Don Orsini?
I know him
That guy told me that if I could find a connection for broadcasting rights in Japan, then I should give my greetings to Takasaki-san. After all, Takasaki-san’s an influential man in Japan’s martial arts industry Takasaki-san shows a bitter expression.
I see. Kuh
He throws off the mahjong tile in his hand to the table.
Sorry. I lost the mood to play Mahjong
Then, he talked to the guards near the wall.
Bring in seats for these people! If I let them stay standing, it would anger Orsini
Ah! Yes!
Hey! Chairs! Bring in chairs!
The followers panic.
Then.
Wait Aniki
One of the men sitting in front of Takasaki speaks up.
He’s erased his presence so far, but,
This man,
Don’t you think it’s a bit too much?
A slender face, short haircut, and black clothing.
He seems to be training in Karate or Judo, either way, he’s got a good physique.
His back is stretched long, and his standing looks clean.
At a glance, he employs Anachronism.
He looks like someone from an old Japanese movie.
I wonder, O’Sullivan
Huh?
Could this guy be the last one of Oodori’s four devas,
Gilbert O’Sullivan.
Indeed, I do know that this lady has connections to Kyouko Messer. Kyouko Messer’s gone through Los Angeles, and it wouldn’t be strange if she made connections there
Morisawa Mami speaks up.
Even so, I don’t think that it’s appropriate for us to bow our heads to this lass
O’Sullivan says.
Oh, you’re Gilbert O’Sullivan?
Margo-san smiled and said.
People do call me Gilbert O’Sullivan, yes
O’Sullivan replies in displeasure.
True name, Shirono Uchi Tetsuya. If I recall, you’ve committed a blunder, and so President Oori changed your name
He asked me if I prefer Gilbert O’Sullivan or Shiromati
So that’s why he picked Giber O’Sullivan.
Shiromati is a great insult!
Err.
Well, putting the names aside, if I recall, you are the leader of President Oodori’s elite guards, aren’t you?
Margo-san laughs.
What about it?
Then, I guess you’re strong
Hearing that, it seems that it made him snap.
Bitch! Are you looking down on mee?
Not exactly, but I want to know. I want to see how strong is the leader of President Oodori’s bodyguards
What the hell did you say?
O’Sullivan stands up from the mahjong table.
Hey, stop it! O’Sullivan!
Takasaki tries to stop him but,
Oh? Why not? We also want to see how much strength does Kyouko Messer’s disciple have
Morisawa Mami said.
That’s right, both sides want to know each other’s strength
Margo-san takes a stance.
Takasaki-san, you can’t stop me now! My anger is about to erupt!
Edie, if you’d please
Okay
Margo-san said. Edie nods.
Now then, O’Sullivan, if we want to test our strength, how about we make rules?
Margo-san moves to the area with more space in the room.
Rules, you say?
Margo-san is leading O’Sullivan.
Well, aren’t there rules in mixed martial arts? Or maybe you want anything goes
Then, O’Sullivan;
I am a Yakuza! It’s obviously Yakuza rules!
Then, let’s go with that
Fuwaa.
Margo-san’s body kicks the ground like a bird.
Then.
Shogwaa!
In an instant.
Margo-san’s body spins at high speed like a tornado,
Margo-san’s roundhouse kick lands on O’Sullivan’s neck
Muguu!
His huge body fell down without being able to do anything.
Oh, what have you done to O’Sullivan Aniki!
The guards near the wall moved reflexively.
Edie then knocked them down with her fist.
Magii!
Migii!
Pugeraa!
Edie didn’t attack the guards that didn’t move.
He said Yakuza rules
Edie smiles.
Thanks, now I understand Takasaki-san, Morisawa-san
Margo-san says after crushing O’Sullivan.
For now, Mr. Orsini wants to meet Takasaki-san, and so it’s best to capitalize on it. But in exchange, I’m expecting promotions for my fight in Japan
Takasaki’s trembling
Oh? What about me?
Morisawa Mami asks Margo-san.
Who knows, that depends on Morisawa-san
Chapter 732
731. The nominated warrior 733. 14th Floor
Hmm, very well. So, do you want to meet up with our boss?
Morisawa Mami, a woman with violet hair and Japanese clothes, one of president Oodori’s four Devas Living four, asks Margo-san.
Why? Our goal was to talk with Takasaki-san about the martial arts industry
Margo-san said with a smile.
Well, surely there were some accidents that happened along the way, but it was them who were rude to Kinoshita-san in the elevator hall, and I just had a match to have Takasaki-san see my skills, right?
You’re talking about something outrageous, there are more than 50 of our men, and two of the living four on the ground
I said, it was an unfortunate accident
The two glare at each other without breaking their smile.
Hey, auntie
Suddenly, Nei talks to Morisawa Mami while smiling.
Look at us, it’s just three weak school girls and one schoolboy, and to think that the adults from the Yakuza were beaten up by those people, what do you think others would say about that?
She’s laughing.
Kinoshita-san took down over 50 of your men alone, and we didn’t even do anything, see? O’Sullivan right over there fought Margo-oneechan and was defeated under the Yakuza rule that he mentioned. Also, it can’t be helped that there would be some who’d want to get in between the fight since it’s a Yakuza rule fight, right? These guys are professionals and yet a high school girl, Edie-chan took them down, look In short, this won’t go well with them.
The first to move was the Yakuza, and our business with Takasaki-san was genuine, and so we’re not trying to provoke them.
Stop, Mami, it’s our loss. For now
Takasaki tells Morisawa Mami.
I understand your case in the entertainment industry. Allow me to say that promoting you in Japan will not be a problem
Yes, thank you. I’ll guarantee that Takasaki-san will receive profit as well
Margo-san replies.
Kuh, it’s shocking to have a lass like you led me around by the nose but, I think that it turned out well as I can get along with the American promoters
Yes, I know. We will help you establish a friendship with Don Orsini. There’s nothing lost on our side. Then that’s a deal?
Hmm, that’s a deal
Takasaki speaks in a loathsome tone.
Either way, it’s our side’s fault this time. This is the result of underestimating women and children
Well that’s inevitable, after all, we’re cute
Nei jokes around.
What about that lady? What’s her job? Round girl?
Takasaki asks Margo-san as he looks at Nei’s beauty.
Oh, Nei’s my manager
Manager?
You said it earlier, I lack in a selling point as someone who just entered the pro martial arts scene. Especially if we enter the American soil
Therefore, I’ll be her manager! I’ll be with her in the ringside, and anywhere she goes!
I think that Nei and I will create enough impression
I see.
If Nei’s in the ringside as Margo-san fights,
The two do have good teamwork after all,
You’ve thought about it a lot
That’s obvious. We’re serious, and so we will go all out. We’ll win in front of the audience, whether it’s a woman or a man
Nei smiles.
Hmm, I think that kind of development would be famous to them. Though there are feminists, it’s a male-dominated land. Especially in martial arts, they prefer men
Can you really say that to me, someone born in the US?
Margo-san’s eyes glitter.
I get that. That’s why I’m doing it
That’s right, this is our dream!
Takasaki felt something from their smiles.
I see. It’s not about money. Your goal is a dream
If we want money, then we can just continue our work on this side
You’re right, after all, you’re Kyouko Messer’s disciple. Is there a reason why someone from this side wants to go to the other side?
It’s not just us. For example, Edie right here has her origins go back to New Orleans, although I can’t explain that in detail. If that continues, her daily life would be limited
Edie’s origin is from an assassination cult in New Orleans.
The new leader of the cult hates Edie due to her blood relatives, and so she’s sold to Miss Cordelia.
That’s why we have to change her personal history
And so you picked martial arts
Yeah, if she’s famous in the martial arts world, then her former organization has to give up on her. Besides, there won’t be any more organizations from this side scouting her
If she becomes a famous martial artist, then she can’t work behind the scenes as everyone can tell who she is.
But won’t you be the same? I believe that your agility is much suited for this side’s work than martial arts
Takasaki said.
But, she and I will have to cross a dangerous bridge soon enough. We have our family. Precious little sisters and brother. We don’t want to accept jobs on this side that would put our family at risk
Margo-san.
Me too
Edie said and smiled.
Therefore, it has to be the other side. This isn’t just a dream. This is a minimum requirement for us
For our sake.
Why would you go that far?
Didn’t I say it earlier? I want to have a good relationship with Takasaki-san. I’d like to become famous in America first but, I’ll need to have a match in Japan sooner or later
Margo-san smiles.
You know it. No, forgive us for what we’ve done. I hope we can still wipe the slate clean. Also, there’s something I want to tell you
Takasaki stares into Margo-san’s eyes.
Does Kouzuki intend to take down Oyaji?
Oyaji, the Yakuza’s term for the boss.
In Takasaki’s case, it’s Oodori.
I don’t know. I’m not under Kouzuki house’s umbrella. I’m from Kuromori house, a friend of Kouzuki house. I can’t tell what the head of Kouzuki thinks
Margo-san replies.
But, you are serious about requesting a job for me to promote you in Japan. If Kouzuki takes down our boss today, that won’t happen. You have come to talk to me aware that we’re in that critical moment. Won’t that make me think that Kouzuki won’t crush down our boss, am I right?
Takasaki asks Margo-san.
You’re overthinking it Takasaki-san
Margo-san laughs.
I have met Kouzuki-san several times, but he’s not someone who prefers genocide. What’s the point in killing everyone? That man is born from an honorable origin, but he’s still a merchant. He values profit than honor. I mean, he won’t do anything that wouldn’t make a profit. Isn’t that right, Yoshinobu-kun?
Margo-san turns to me.
Yes, I think so too
I replied.
Indeed, your judgment is erred. To begin with, picking a fight with Kouzuki house and sending in your fighters from Kansai to Tokyo failed. Then, Kouzuki SS’ chief, Yazawa, and his team raided your headquarters in Kansai The Kansai Yakuza misread Jii-chan’s strength.
Even so, you guys want to have a 50-50. Actually no. You want to get the better deal with Kouzuki house. I think that’s asking for too much
Yeah, isn’t that why you came here? To attack us?
Takasaki replies, bitterly.
WHat are you talking about? What can a group of girls and a single boy do? Do we look like a group that would raid you guys?
Margo-san looks at us.
Nei, Edie, Kinoshita-san, me.
The high school group wears a school uniform. Kinoshita-san looks cute.
But you took down more than 50 of them! Didn’t you just beat up even the elites!
Morisawa Mami replies in anger and glares at Margo-san.
Look, do you still not get it, Auntie?
Nei looks amazed, then she turned to Kinoshita-san.
Kinoshita-san, how long have you been in Kouzuki SS?
Kinoshita-san counts her fingers.
Err, it’s about four months
That means you’re a new hire, right?
That’s right!
By the way, are you in the stronger group, Kinoshita-san?
Kinoshita-san shakes her head.
Not at all, We’ve got more people stronger than me. I’m not even worthy of being called strong
Not worthy, she said
Nei tells Morisawa Mami while laughing.
Seriously, jokes aside, Margo-oneechan wants to talk about martial arts with Takasaki-san, and so we had Kinoshita-san who’s a newcomer take us here. This floor is under Kouzuki SS’ control, and so we can’t just come in without someone from the same company, don’t you think? Then, your boys picked a fight with this girl who says that she’s not even strong enough Morisawa Mami starts to tremble.
Think about it. Kouzuki SS is a private army made from Kouzuki-ojiichan’s money and connections. This newcomer is this strong. If he wants to take you all down, then he won’t even bother doing this deal! He has enough manpower to destroy the Yakuza in Kansai Furthermore, Kouzuki house has a lot of connections. No matter how unlawful their methods can get, Kouzuki house won’t be convicted for it
Nei and Margo talk alternately.
These two are always perfect when it comes to intimidation tactics.
Then, is that it? Kouzuki has no intention of taking down our boss?
Takasaki says.
Huh? Why would you think that way?
Nei knits her eyebrows.
No, look, if he has that much power, then he could’ve crushed us down right away. Besides, weren’t you the ones who said that Kouzuki doesn’t prefer genocide?
Takasaki looks at Margo-san.
Yes, Kouzuki-san doesn’t like genocide
Then that’s it!
But, he can crush down the head and let the body and limbs live
She smiled.
If he can change the head to another one that would follow him, then the body and the limbs would belong to him, doesn’t it?
You mean?
Does Jii-chan plan to take down only Oodori?
I guess. I think that Kouzuki-ojiichan’s purpose is the whole Kansai Yakuza! And so, he won’t kill everyone. That would mean the organization dies. If he takes out the head only.
After all, it’s only one head he has to take out
Nei and Margo’s combination burst out.
Are you telling me to betray my own boss?
Takasaki says.
Huh? What? Were we talking about that, Margo-oneechan?
No, I don’t remember saying such a thing. We’re from a different organization than Kouzuki house, and all we’re doing is explaining the current affairs
Margo-san and Nei looked at each other.
But, have you ever thought of this, Margo-oneechan?
Hmm, I wonder
Nobody else knows what happens in this room, right?
Oh, you’re right. Hmm
Besides, Margo-oneechan fought O’Sullivan, and now he’s lying down on the floor
Edie did take out some of the guards too
Then, will it look strange if after we left the room, Takasaki-san and everyone says that their stomach hurts, and so they don’t show up in the deal?
Oh! You’re right! More than 50 people are laying on the floor already. Besides, half of the living four are sleeping together with them, if Takasaki retreats here, nobody would think of it as strange
Nobody. Nobody. I mean, if it’s just Takasaki-san and everyone in this room still awake after we left, don’t you think that the boss would be suspicious of that?
You’re right. Maybe he would think that there’s some sort of deal that happened. Well, there really was a promise of him introducing me to the business
Nei laughs.
Takasaki-san, you thought because you promised Margo-oneechan to promote her in the martial arts industry, Kouzuki house won’t try to take you down, right?
He’s thinking that since he made a promise with Margo-san to promote her in the martial arts industry in the future, he won’t be involved in the carnage.
That’s why, Takasaki-san.
But, how do you think Oodori would see that?
Nei said. Takasaki realized.
Maybe, Oodori-san sees Takasaki-san promising to work together with us as a betrayal against him as there would be a confrontation later?
Are you screwing with me?
Takasaki shouts, but,
Don’t point fingers too fast. All I did was ask Takasaki-san for a job. Don Orsini trusts Takasaki-san after all
Margo-san laughs.
That’s right, we’re not screwing anyone here. All we have is a separate case, we’re not threatening you at all Takasaki-saan
Nei shows a smile on her face.
Kukukuku, hahahahahahaha, ahahahaha!
Suddenly, Morisawa Mami laughs out loudly.
It’s our loss. Our loss. Takasaki-san, we lost to them
Then, she sighed.
They’re right, we should take out leave. My story would be that I fainted after seeing that O’Sullivan knocked out
Morisawa Mami glares at me.
What are you looking at? Are you thinking that I’m such a fat woman to faint from that?
No, I don’t think so
I say while in panic.
No, Darling. That’s how she does her stuff
Edie stands before me.
Auntie, if you want I can make you faint for real, want it?
Edie starts shadow boxing.
Stupid. Stop that. That was just a little joke. Something to ease things up
Morisawa Mami sighs.
So, Takasaki-san? If you ar hurt, then Oodori-san won’t think that you’re betraying him. Isn’t this a problem within the Yakuza industry? Well, it may look lame to have a woman knock you out, but you’re not a fighter compared to O’Sullivan. Even Oodori-san’s bodyguards were knocked out, it would be inevitable to have you, a thinker, be knocked out Margo-san says.
Okay. But, can I get a guarantee from Kouzuki if I leave here?
He’s making a profit to himself to the last moment.
This is what a Yakuza is.
Isn’t staying alive enough as a profit?
Margo-san said with a nonchalant face.
Is boss already out?
Takasaki glares at Margo-san.
Well, I think. It’s about 910 probability
I see
Takasaki drops his shoulders.
Okay, I’ll have to ask you to beat me too. That would be my way to leave. You guys too
Takasaki tells the Yakuza near the wall.
Sorry, but Oodori-san could drag you along as his guards
Margo-san said. Then the Yakuza near the wall;
O-Okay
They bow their heads, unable to do anything.
No, don’t pretend, you need to be knocked out for real
Takasaki said.
That way, we can defend ourselves. Jou-chan, give me a hit to knock me out. Get yourselves punched too.
eeh?
It’s okay. These guys won’t leave any after-effects from their hits. Give Mami a hit as well
Indeed. That’s more reliable
As expected of Yakuza, if it’s for their self-protection, they won’t mind getting knocked out.
Don’t ask for medical treatment fees later, okay?
Margo-san said.
I know. I prefer to live than to make money
If it’s money, you can earn a lot in martial arts. Nufufufun
Nei laughs.
Then, do it quick
I’m ready
Takasaki and Morisawa closed their eyes.
Wait, wait, Margo, I can do that without pain you know?
Edie moves forward.
Takasaki and everyone else opened their eyes and show a Huh? expression, then Edie;
Don’t mind it, It’s my skill. hawooo!!!!
Edie releases her Qi, then.
Awawawawa
Nupupupupu!
Takasaki and Morisawa faint on the spot.
Okay, you guys are next!
Edie knocks out the frightened Yakuza one after another.
That was amazing is that what they call QI?
Kinoshita-san claps her hand.
Indeed. I used Qi on them
Edie replied brightly.
Now then, that’s one of Shou-neechan’s business taken care of
Margo-san said.
Huh, what?
Come to think of it, Margo-san, Shou-neechan, and Minaho-neesan have been making plans since noon.
You do remember the participants in the deal today, don’t you?
Margo-san turned to me.
Yes. Jii-chan, and the two Kansai Yakuza groups. Oodori and Satake. Then, some big names in yakuza as witnesses, right?
In the first place,
Takakura shrine has a long relationship with the Kansai Yakuza.
Oodori has been visiting the Takakura shrine a lot. He is Tsukiko’s true father.
However, Satake, the new head of another Kansai Yakuza killed off Tsukiko’s parents, then took over the Takakura shrine. That caused the chain of events.
Then Oodori’s side had a dispute with Satake.
Then, the Takakura sisters sought Jii-chan’s help.
Kouzuki house intervened with pure strength and suppressed the two Yakuza groups in dispute.
The deal for today isn’t just about Kouzuki-san and the Yakuza, but also a deal between Oodori and Satake.
Okay.
And since this is a deal between two Yakuza groups, there have to be other Yakuza groups as a witness. Kouzuki-san isn’t in Yakuza, and so he couldn’t participate in a deal between them
Margo-san said.
So, Yo-chan. The Yakuza’s arbitration would be conducted by the other big-names in Yakuza, but which do you think they’ll favor?
Huh, Nei?
Maybe Oodori?
Why?
Well, aren’t most of the leaders old? I think that’s how the bosses of Yakuza should be. If that’s the case, then they’d side with Oodori who is older compared to the new leader, Satake, he should have a long relationship with them, right?
I think.
And that’s why Satake-san’s tense at this development. It was Satake’s group who interfered with us in the parking lot, remember?
Oh! I see.
If the deal goes on, Satake would be at a disadvantage.
That’s why he’s going for make or break plans.
You get it now after coming here, right? Oodori faction’s floor feels easygoing
Nei’s right.
These guys have composure.
That’s why we have to balance the scales a bit
Margo-san said.
Is that why Kinoshita-san took down 50 of them in the elevator hall?
To scrape off Oodori’s personnel.
Huh? I wasn’t thinking of that though?
Kinoshita-san smiles wryly.
If we’re going that route, we also had 16 knocked out from Satake’s group in the underground parking lot
Oh, right.
Satake’s group also has casualties.
That’s not the purpose. You see, Yakuza has this Honor stuff
Nei says.
Oodori-san made sure to bring his four devas. This is a display of his status that he has reliable followers in his side
Margo-san.
That’s the reason he brought the four here! And despite all that, the four of them won’t be showing up because they’re hurt
Nei laughs.
For a big boss in Yakuza, there’s nothing as shameful as this. You came to a meeting with the Yakuza’s big-names with your followers, and not a single one of them appeared when you need them. In addition to that, they’re knocked out in the hotel!
Chapter 733
Sorry I don’t know what happened, but they all fainted, look
Nei opens up the room of the four devas of president Oodori on the 13th floor of the hotel and speaks to the Yakuza outside.
what did you say?
takasaki Aniki?
Morisawa-neesan?
O’Sullivan Aniki’s blowing foam in his mouth!
All of the elite guards are knocked out?
The Yakuza who came into the room checked the situation and screamed out.
youu! What did you to do Aniki?
Then, Margo-san;
Who knows? Maybe it’s food poisoning? They’re all knocked out when we entered the room
Food poisoning, you said?
Maybe they ate something terrible during lunch? Lmao
Nei’s laughing.
That can’t possibly be true! Hey!
One of the Yakuza’s getting furious but, Margo-san;
Isn’t food poisoning a better excuse?
She speaks in a low tone.
Or could it be that you’ll insist on saying that we knocked out all of the living four of Kansai Raijin Houkai by ourselves?
If I recall, the heavyweights in the Yakuza industry are coming to this hotel as well!
I heard that Satake and his group are in here too
Let’s say that we knocked Takasaki-san out, are you okay with everyone else knowing about that?
That would be embarrassing, right?
Nei and Edie looked at each other and laughed.
Kuh
The Yakuza looks disheartened.
Even if they avenge them, it’s too late.
It can’t overturn the fact that the four major leaders were defeated by girls.
That includes the over-50 Yakuza on the floor.
Oh, if you contact the lobby, Kouzuki SS’ relief team would come. They’ll give you medical treatment, and if you want, they’ll send you to your desired hospital
Kinoshita-san from Kouzuki SS said.
I mean, I think you should get yourselves some food poisoning too
Margo-san smiles.
If you come together with Oodori-san in the venue, you might not be able to return to Kansai alive
don’t fuck with us! we’ve come here because of a dispute! This place is where we’d make a deal!
that’s right! nobody kills during a deal!
That’s Yakuza’s common knowledge!
Though they’re trembling, they shout back at Margo-san.
Indeed. That’s common sense for Yakuza, but we’re not one
Kouzuki-ojiichan too!
Margo-san and Nei laugh.
Hey, do you really think your logic still applies after all these events?
Sorry, but we have a better common sense compared to Yakuza
The hallway quiets down.
Let me say this again, take this as a warning
There’s no next time
Margo-san and Edie emit bloodlust.
hey, I’m Takasaki-Aniki’s underling. I’ll bring him to a hospital
