I’m very emotional right now—if my finger slips, you, the esteemed wakagashira of the Sumiyoshi-kai, will be dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan’s tone revealed no emotion at all—on the contrary, it was eerily calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With things at this point, Yamamoto Kōfu showed grit; he didn’t beg like a coward, but merely smiled and spread his hands: “Is your gun real? Buying a real firearm without a license is illegal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan sneered: “Do you find it funny to say that, coming from a Hōdō boss like you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fair point,” Yamamoto Kōfu chuckled bitterly. “You’re the bravest girl I’ve ever met—even more formidable than many men. But have you considered how you’ll leave here today?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan furrowed her delicate brows: “The gun is in my hand right now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you counted how many bullets are in the magazine? I have seventy men here—all my most loyal followers, each willing to die for me with just a word.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kōfu’s voice grew louder; though the gun was pointed at his head, his aura overshadowed Luo Quan’s. Truly, no wonder he was a Hōdō legend who had dominated Japan for decades—he remained unfazed even in such disadvantage, even showing signs of turning the tables.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Luo Quan was no naive seventeen-year-old; she knew she held the upper hand and could not afford to lose the psychological edge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aren’t you afraid of dying?” Luo Quan slipped her finger into the trigger guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kōfu remained calm: “The moment I chose this path, I knew I wouldn’t die peacefully. Everyone must die someday. Only those unafraid of death deserve to keep living.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you sure?” Luo Quan pressed her thumb, disengaging the safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kōfu’s face twisted into a snarl: “Have you thought about the consequences of pulling the trigger? Everyone here is mine—they won’t let you face legal punishment. They’ll torture you with the most evil, terrifying methods you can imagine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tomorrow, your names and videos will flood every website in Japan. Everyone—your parents, your friends—will see your disgrace. And this will be your final record in this world!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan took a deep breath: “I know if I pull the trigger, it’ll be mutual destruction. But whether I pull it or not isn’t up to me—it’s up to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We never wanted conflict with you. You’re the one who pushed us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Luo Quan’s tone soften, Yamamoto Kōfu realized this girl was still too young—or lacked the ruthlessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were him, he wouldn’t waste time listening to his enemy’s words—he’d shoot, end it. Even if the magazine had only ten rounds left, none of his men were true death-seekers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confident now that Luo Quan wouldn’t shoot, Yamamoto Kōfu relaxed completely: “If I let you walk away unharmed, how could I ever save face?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan frowned. The fat pig clearly knew she wouldn’t fire—and he was holding on tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Luo Quan truly lacked the courage to pull the trigger. Jail was secondary; if she fired, she and Starfield Sakura would face a horrific fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So one side refused to yield, the other refused to fire—and they remained locked in stalemate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kōfu’s men watched helplessly as their boss was held at gunpoint, Buganqingjuwangdong .\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But everyone knew this couldn’t last long—people tire. A girl couldn’t hold a gun raised forever. All Yamamoto Kōfu had to do was wait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they didn’t know was that Luo Quan was also buying time. Since she left, nearly an hour had passed—it should be fully fermented by now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as everyone assumed the standoff would continue, a commotion erupted outside the bar—loud, unmistakable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s Miki and the others!” Starfield Sakura’s joy spilled over; her tense nerves finally relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impossible!” Yamamoto Kōfu boomed. “Without my permission, even the police can’t enter my territory. No one dares!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A group dares,” Luo Quan smiled. They were the bravest, most lovable people on earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The noise outside grew fiercer, louder. Even those inside the bar began to stir, all wondering what was happening—but no one dared open the door without their boss’s order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they didn’t need to—the door opened itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid a roar, the locked doors of the Gokuraku Bar burst open, and a flood of men surged inside, among them four Xizhuangnan  writhing in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The instant the door flew open, Luo Quan expertly lifted her skirt and slipped her now-rearmed pistol back into its holster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yamamoto Kōfu caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of his eye, but his focus was entirely on the doorway—he was trying to identify these people, where they came from!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd inside recognized the two girls across the room and let out bestial roars, surging as one toward Luo Quan and Starfield Sakura.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the tide neared their boss, Yamamoto Kōfu’s men quickly formed a human wall, barely holding the line before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They only meant to protect their boss—but unintentionally, they had severed the bond between fans and their idol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kusō! Don’t block us, bastards!” The fans at the front of the surge shouted in fury, hurling their full strength against the human barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seventy men couldn’t possibly stand against hundreds of fanatics fired up to the max. The hastily formed wall trembled under the violent impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So these are the ‘most lovable people’ you mentioned?” Yamamoto Kōfu, peering through his men, saw the fans’ faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they suffered crushing pressure from both sides, their eyes fixed on Luo Quan and Starfield Sakura with pure adoration and frenzy—eyes he had never seen in any of his own men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was true, unquestioning devotion. One word from these two girls, and these men would do anything—even die for them!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the middle of summer, Yamamoto Kōfu felt icy cold. He suddenly remembered his elders’ tales of an era—when the entire nation went mad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan’s lips curved into a graceful smile: “Mr. Yamamoto, the times have changed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No power, no matter how strong, can survive if it abandons the masses. Stars are like this. Hōdō is like this. We have no real rivalry. Do you really want to cling to your pride and keep chasing us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me be clear: Starfield-san and I have never disrespected you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the situation looked favorable, Luo Quan wasn’t foolish. When to be firm, she was firm. When to offer a way out, she offered it. She didn’t believe Yamamoto Kōfu would still stubbornly pursue them after this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hahahaha… You’re a fascinating woman,” Yamamoto Kōfu suddenly laughed. “I never expected this. I underestimated you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a top Hōdō boss, Yamamoto Kōfu had, for the first time in his life, been outmaneuvered by a girl. Yet strangely, he felt no anger toward Luo Quan—not even after she’d pointed a gun at his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Consider this my tuition fee. A power that abandons the masses cannot survive… Hmm. That’s a thought worth pondering.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So what’s your decision?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go. I’d love to have dinner with Starfield-san, but angering the masses isn’t wise. I’ll pretend today’s events never happened.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A generous decision,” Luo Quan complimented lightly, then pulled Starfield Sakura to the human wall and shouted: “Everyone, please calm down! Stop pushing—it could cause an accident!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Quan’s voice was both loud and unmistakable. The fans, moments ago wild beasts, instantly became docile sheep—every single one froze in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The perfect, terrifying synchronization left Yamamoto Kōfu stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The times… really have changed…”\u003C\u002Fp>",1394,"2026-06-20T22:54:01.657Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2f3bd6ca7b743d6f47e82297936f517c59a08053e0650921b22db21edf1d6fd3","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-37","becoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-chapter-35",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbecoming-a-goddess-in-tokyo-cover.jpg"]
