338. Chapter 338: Shanjie Shifts Battle to Japan

"Boss, we're in position."

Atop a high-rise building, Bai Lu chewed gum, aimed her AWP sniper Bujiang at an office several hundred meters away, and said into her headset: "Ready to act at any time."

"Leave immediately by rappelling after the shot; don't worry about anything else," Chen Jiajun said indifferently. "Silva will be there to cover you."

"Understood." After saying this, Bai Lu took a deep breath, aligned the scope with Takenaka Masahisa, who was holding a meeting with his subordinates in the office, and then pulled the Trigger.

The massive sound from the sniper rifle echoed through the night sky, and a large hole was instantly blown into the chest of Takenaka Masahisa, who had been holding the meeting in the office.

Fresh blood sprayed almost every Executive meeting in the office, leaving everyone present stunned.

After confirming that Takenaka Masahisa was dead, Bai Lu immediately dropped the weapon in her hand, hooked onto a rope to rappel down from the roof, and then disappeared into the night after slipping into an inconspicuous black sedan.

Now the people of the Yamaguchi-gumi were in an uproar, with those Young Heads and Executives howling as they pursued the killer.

After all, on their own turf, their Boss had been taken out with a single shot.

This kind of thing was not just a simple matter of losing face.

Almost at the same time, the Boss of the Kusakari-gumi, Kusakari Yuichi, also suffered an assassination attempt by a killer.

This pushed matters to a climax.

The entire Shinjuku area fell into chaos, and the Yamaguchi-gumi launched indiscriminate retaliatory actions against surrounding gangs.

By the next day, this operation had not yet ended, and in some ways, it was even intensifying.

Nakanishi Kazuo had not expected that Tietou would fail at such a critical moment, and now the man was nowhere to be found.

Kusakari Yuichi publicly called out, pointing his finger directly at Nakanishi Kazuo, which made the situation even more convoluted.

As for the Japan police, the Shinjuku Metropolitan Police Department had already entered a state of emergency.

Because this matter had dragged ordinary people into it, in order to prevent the incident from escalating further, various districts established a Boryokudan Incident Countermeasure Headquarters to deal with the matter.

In reality, it was just to warn the Yamaguchi-gumi and other gangs looking to loot during the chaos.

Financial cliques, gangs, and the entertainment industry are all mixed together; it's the same all over the world.

However, Japan's gangs are still in a relatively primitive state, and most of the time they are still controlled by the financial cliques behind them.

So, with things having developed to this point, it naturally alarmed those Big Bosses behind the scenes to come forward personally to settle the matter.

Hearing that the Big Boss had come forward, Nakanishi Kazuo finally revealed an excited expression.

This was exactly why he had sought cooperation with Chen Jiajun earlier.

Chen Jiajun's multinational Guojun Group was very close with Japan's financial cliques; as long as Chen Jiajun spoke up, he was certain of success.

Therefore, Nakanishi Kazuo swaggered off with his subordinates to meet the Boss of the financial clique behind the scenes.

In a hot spring club, the heads and brains of the Yamaguchi-gumi had all gathered here.

They were waiting for the Big Boss to make the final ruling.

"The dead have no value; the wealth that remains in this world is what matters most. Hatred must be resolved in time, and the struggle must cease immediately," the Big Boss said slowly to the members of the Yamaguchi-gumi.

Everyone had different thoughts, and Nakanishi Kazuo looked at Kusakari Yuichi beside him with quite a bit of smugness.

Even if Tietou hadn't finished this guy off, he had already won this time.

"Kusakari, you are promoted to Chairman of the Yamaguchi-gumi," the Big Boss said, pointing to Kusakari Yuichi on the side.

"What?" Hearing this appointment decision, Nakanishi Kazuo was stunned on the spot.

Only then did Kusakari Yuichi reveal the smile of a victor.

"This is impossible, how could it be like this?" Nakanishi Kazuo said in a panic.

The Big Boss looked at Nakanishi Kazuo with displeasure and said: "Nakanishi Kazuo, do you seem to have an opinion about my appointment?"

Nakanishi Kazuo trembled all over, finally coming back to his senses, and hurriedly lowered his head and bowed, saying: "I dare not."

"In that case, let it be done," the Big Boss said indifferently, putting an end to the turmoil.

After Kusakari Yuichi received the Big Boss's appointment, he didn't even glance at Nakanishi Kazuo and left directly with his men.

He knew that Nakanishi Kazuo could no longer stir up any trouble, and he could slowly deal with this guy in the time to come.

After getting into the car, Kusakari Yuichi was in no hurry to go to the Yamaguchi-gumi, but instead said to the driver: "Go to the Imperial Hotel."

After arriving at the hotel, Kusakari Yuichi had his subordinates wait outside and went to the top-floor suite alone.

After entering, Kusakari Yuichi knelt down very respectfully and bowed to the man in front of him: "Thank you for your help, Excellency."

That's right, the person Kusakari Yuichi came to thank was none other than Chen Jiajun, who had been hiding behind the scenes.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said: "Group Leader Kusakari should be the master of the Yamaguchi-gumi now, right?"

"Yes, Excellency," Kusakari Yuichi said with a smile: "This is all thanks to your kind words before the Big Boss. Otherwise, that guy Nakanishi Kazuo would have really succeeded."

Chen Jiajun waved his hand and said: "With Group Leader Kusakari's methods, even without my help, I estimate you would have been able to sit in this position. I was just adding flowers to the brocade."

"No, no, no, Excellency provided charcoal in the snow," Kusakari Yuichi said with a serious face: "If you hadn't had Mr. Tietou here pretend to assassinate me, I reckon that guy Nakanishi Kazuo would have succeeded."

That's right, Tietou had also betrayed Nakanishi Kazuo, and the reason was simple: Nakanishi Kazuo's current wife was Tietou's former fiancée.

It was precisely because of this woman that Tietou had risked so much to smuggle himself into Japan.

This kind of thing can only be called the irony of fate.

"Group Leader Kusakari didn't just come here today to say thank you, did you?" Chen Jiajun looked at the man with the appearance of an ambitious hero before him.

Kusakari Yuichi laughed, nodded, and said: "Besides thanking you, I also want to further our cooperation with you, Excellency."

"Further cooperation? What capital do you have?" Chen Jiajun said with some amusement: "You should know that I have long since stopped meddling in underworld affairs."

Kusakari Yuichi said with a serious face: "Of course, it's not underworld business; the Yamaguchi-gumi certainly cannot rely on such business to survive forever. Being treated like a chamber pot by those big shots—used when they want to use it, and discarded directly when they don't."

"Oh?" Chen Jiajun said with some surprise: "I didn't expect that Group Leader Kusakari and Nakanishi Kazuo were both reformists."

Kusakari Yuichi said disdainfully: "Although Nakanishi-kun has some small cleverness, he is incapable of achieving great things."

Chen Jiajun said amusedly: "Then what does Group Leader Kusakari intend to cooperate with me on?"

"I know that you have been acquiring some chip companies and machinery companies recently, Excellency; I presume you want to vigorously develop these industries, right?" Kusakari Yuichi asked tentatively.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said ambiguously, "This is my personal interest."

"But this should be a very profitable business, right?" Kusakari Yuichi said cunningly.

Chen Jiajun's gaze suddenly sharpened: "What? Does Boss Kusakari intend to take a share from me? You should know I have many partners, and I wouldn't mind changing to another one."

"No, no, no, you have misunderstood my meaning," Kusakari Yuichi said with a smile. "I feel that in such matters, I can do Mr. Chen some small favors."

Kusakari Yuichi saying this actually surprised Chen Jiajun a little.

The semiconductor chip industry and the machinery industry have always been things that Japan values.

Him saying he could do a small favor was practically no different from treason.

"Oh?" Chen Jiajun said with some amusement: "Then what is the price?"

"I heard that Mr. Chen made quite a lot when speculating in foreign exchange some time ago. I wonder if you could take me along for the ride?" Kusakari Yuichi finally stated his purpose.

"Finance?" Chen Jiajun paused for a moment, then said to Kusakari Yuichi: "Boss Kusakari has great ambition. However, I can agree to this matter."

The impact brought by the Plaza Accord has not completely faded, and it will experience serious problems such as the real estate bubble later on.

If operated properly, one could still harvest another wave.

Draining Japan's blood, Chen Jiajun had no psychological burden, and taking Kusakari Yuichi along was not a problem either.

Moreover, this behavior of the old Japanese devil Kusakari Yuichi was no different from being a spy for Japan.

Hearing that Chen Jiajun had agreed, Kusakari Yuichi very meticulously performed a grand bow once again.

Since this old devil was acting so humble, Chen Jiajun had no need to be polite with him: "Besides my affairs, the matter that Nakanishi Kazuo promised Tietou now also falls on you. There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Kusakari Yuichi smiled and said: "Of course there is no problem. The Tainan Gang's territory in the Shinjuku area can be directly handed over to Tietou-san and his people to manage. As for the problem of his identity, I can also use the power of the Yamaguchi-gumi to smooth it over."

After listening, Chen Jiajun smiled and reached out his hand: "Happy to cooperate."

The Japan of the eighties, its technology was truly no joke.

It had a near-monopolistic leading advantage in multiple fields.

For example, semiconductor chip technology, automobile manufacturing technology, machinery manufacturing, liquid crystal technology, and so on.

This directly threatened the status of the United States as the hegemon.

Following the signing of the Plaza Accord, the Americans began to implement sanctions against Japan.

They used a succession of tactics like technical blockades and economic sanctions, and even arrested quite a few executives of Japanese companies in the United States.

Their goal was to target several of Japan's leading enterprises.

For example, Toshiba, Kyocera, and so on.

Therefore, during this period, in order to prevent the United States from continuing to take action.

Japan held all its core technology firmly in its own hands; this was Chen Jiajun's biggest difficulty at the moment.

But as long as there is Kusakari Yuichi's help, not to mention getting the most advanced and core technologies, getting some that are slightly behind should be no problem.

After bringing these things back, relying on the extremely strong "involution" capability of the homeland and Ao En's research and development capability, I believe we will soon be able to "involute" the United States and Japan to death.

So during this time, Chen Jiajun is frantically throwing money around; anyway, any technology company he sees, he directly spends money to buy it.

This not only saved some small Japanese enterprises from suffering greater turmoil in the future, but also allowed Chen Jiajun to make real gains.

"Boss, our liquid funds are almost gone." Sima Xiang had been exhausted during this period and directly found Chen Jiajun to signal that he couldn't hold on anymore: "And our manpower is too scarce; doing it this way is really inefficient and very tiring."

Chen Jiajun asked: "What types of companies have we acquired?"

"According to your requirements, the priority is semiconductors and machinery, and we also acquired one company in the automotive field." Sima Xiang looked at the industries recorded in his notebook and said: "Kusakari Yuichi also indicated that your actions have already attracted the prying eyes of some interested parties."

"He said if we don't stop, even he himself estimates he won't be able to suppress it for much longer."

Chen Jiajun said with some dissatisfaction: "Tsk, how boring. I was even prepared to transfer more money over."

Brunei is very good at making money now, and the vast majority of it is because of this thing called the Walkman and some small electronic products.

Although these things are easy to imitate, because of Chen Jiajun's status as a British Knight, he avoided a lot of trouble.

Chen Jiajun doesn't hog the profits either; as long as they pay a patent fee, people can manufacture them however they want.

Wanting to mobilize a sum of funds to buy Japanese companies is absolutely no problem.

However, since it has already attracted attention, Chen Jiajun prepared to quit while he was ahead; he didn't have the death-seeking mentality of dancing in someone else's minefield.

"Send a telegram to Brunei and have Ao En come to Japan for a trip. As a technical expert, he understands more than we do. See what things can be taken away and what things need to be dismantled." Chen Jiajun said to Sima Xiang.

"I understand, Big Boss." Sima Xiang nodded.

"By the way, where is Silva? I haven't seen his shadow all day." Chen Jiajun asked aloud.

Sima Xiang said: "It seems like there was some problem on Tietou's side, and he went over to handle it."

Chen Jiajun shook his head and said: "I said this guy couldn't be a boss."

"But that kid really seems like a good person." Sima Xiang shook his head and said.

"Once a ghost for a day, a ghost for a lifetime." Chen Jiajun shook his head and said: "You should know how much effort I spent to wash my record clean back then, and you also know how much I gave up. Tietou? I don't think highly of him; he doesn't even understand what he wants himself."

After Sima Xiang was silent for a moment, he said to Chen Jiajun: "Shanjie is already on his way to Japan."

Chen Jiajun nodded, sighed, and said: "Then let's see if his life can hold out until Shanjie comes over to take over."

On the other side, a hot pot restaurant in Shinjuku.

Tietou learned that the brothers who used to hang out with him were dealing in Laundry Powder, and in his anger, he went directly to their door.

And what he didn't expect was that his brother A Jie had also made contact with Nakanishi Kazuo.

"How could you guys get mixed up with this guy Nakanishi Kazuo? Are you crazy?" Tietou questioned with a look of shock.

A Jie was no longer the cowardly man he was before; when Tietou was being lovey-dovey with Lili, this guy had long since won over all the illegal immigrants.

Now everyone only recognized A Jie, and no one recognized Tietou as the boss.

A Jie said disdainfully: "Let's get this straight, wasn't it you who made contact with that guy first?"

"Fine, let's not talk about the Nakanishi Kazuo matter." Tietou said viciously to A Jie: "How could you even dare to touch Laundry Powder?"

A Jie waved his hands neurotically and said: "Don't you go pointing fingers at me, could I have accomplished anything on my own?"

Hearing A Jie's words, Tietou looked at his former partners with a face full of shock: "So all of you are dealing in Laundry Powder?"

"Hey, hey, hey, you were the one who left us behind to go do legitimate business, and now you talk to us like this?" someone in the group said to Tietou with disdain.

Seeing that the two were about to clash, someone among the illegal immigrants immediately went to break up the fight.

"Why are you helping him speak? We're just earning some money, what's the big deal?"

"That's right, and we didn't mess with our own people."

"Tietou, since we all agree, you'd better stay out of this."

Tietou shouted viciously at the group: "The Police are looking to make arrests now, arrest who? Arrest me? Look at what you all look like now."

Officer Beiye, who had come up with Tietou, saw the situation and knew that anything more Tietou said would be useless, so he pulled Tietou and said: "It's no use saying anything now, let's go."

Hearing Beiye say they were leaving, the group of illegal immigrants blocked them directly.

"He can't leave." The illegal immigrants, who were no longer what they used to be, had fierce glints in their eyes one by one.

At this moment, Laogui from the group came out to smooth things over: "We are all our own people, don't resort to violence."

"He's mixed up with the Police now, is he still one of our own?" the other illegal immigrants said viciously.

Tietou said excitedly: "And you think you'll have it better following Nakanishi Kazuo? Now that Kusakari Yuichi has taken power, he's looking for that guy everywhere; cooperating with him will only lead you to a dead end."

A Jie said with disdain: "You've already reached a dead end. Have you forgotten that you've killed people too? When you first snuck over, you killed a border guard just to see your woman. You killed the Japanese underworld to get permanent residency. Everything you did was for yourself, so stop talking nonsense."

"So what? Didn't you get any benefits? Everything you have now, I fought to get back for you. Without me, what would you be doing right now?" Tietou roared excitedly.

The illegal immigrant sneered and said: "Settling accounts with us, are you? When you first arrived in Japan, who looked at you? Without us? You can go eat shit."

The two sides almost started fighting again in the chaos, but Laogui desperately pulled them apart: "We are all our own people, everything can be discussed, everything can be compromised."

But before he could finish his sentence, a knife suddenly slashed directly across Laogui's throat.

Fresh blood immediately flowed out through the gaps in his fingers as he clutched his throat, looking at his companion with a face full of shock.

And Tietou looked at the guy in front of him with sudden grief and indignation.

This guy was Xianggang Zai; the illegal immigrants had all learned how to do crooked business from him. This guy could be said to be the most ruthless person in the entire group.

He held the blood-stained knife and said to Tietou: "You cut off my path to wealth, which means you want my life. What do you expect me to do?"

"You—"

Just as Tietou was preparing to take action, the door of the hot pot restaurant was suddenly kicked open violently.

Then a large group of the Japanese underworld stormed in directly.

And leading them was Shanjie, who had rushed over from Hong Kong.

Chen Jiajun had asked him to come over to take over the territory in Japan, and Shanjie naturally had no objections.

After all, having come from a background as a street thug, he was still not very accustomed to those things inside the company.

Shanjie scanned the crowd coldly, then fixed his gaze on Tietou and said: "You are Tietou, right?"

"Yes, and you are?" Tietou looked at Shanjie with some confusion.

Shanjie said indifferently: "I am Shanjie of the Hung Hing, the 'cock' of the cock, Mr. Chen said that since you can no longer manage your subordinates and territory, from now on, I will take over here."

"Ah?" Tietou was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "That's right, Mr. Chen is truly accurate in judging people."

Shanjie said indifferently: "You can leave with this Officer Beiye now."

"But—" Tietou said, still feeling uneasy.

Shanjie said sternly: "There are no 'buts'. If you don't want to work in this line of business anymore, get lost immediately."

Officer Beiye pulled Tietou and whispered: "Stop talking nonsense, he has the Yamaguchi-gumi behind him. Besides, if you don't leave, those friends of yours are all prepared to kill you."

Hearing Beiye's words, Tietou could only look back one last time at the panicked illegal immigrants, then gritted his teeth and followed Beiye away quickly.

After the two left, Shanjie sat down in a relaxed manner, looked at the group of illegal immigrants, and said: "Who is in charge here now?"

Facing the imposing Shanjie, not a single one of the illegal immigrants dared to speak.

Including A Jie, who had already gone insane. (End of chapter)
