Chapter 541: Wait and See

Seeing that Kira agreed, everyone present was in an uproar.

Who didn't know that Kira had never gotten along with Kusakari Lang?

The Liangchuan family was also independent from the Yamaguchi-gumi, belonging to a faction that stood on its own.

Now that even the Liangchuan family had chosen to support this fellow Kusakari Lang, many who had been wavering were suddenly tempted.

After Kira raised his hand, many others followed suit, raising their hands to indicate their agreement to the reforms.

As for those old fellows with deep-rooted influence but rigid ways, they frowned and remained silent.

Among them was the Otomo Group, known as the "loyal dogs."

Otomo had been brutally beaten by Shanjie last time, and the scars on his face had not yet faded.

The fellow who should have been the most loyal to Kusakari Lang was, at this moment, not saying a word.

Even when Kusakari Lang frequently winked at him, he acted as if he didn't see it.

It was not because of the previous incident that the Otomo Group had become disheartened.

After all, as a weapon, failing to defeat the opponent was indeed an inescapable responsibility.

It was impossible for Otomo Wu to let his years of loyalty be shaken by this matter.

In fact, the truth was that Otomo Wu had never been loyal to Kusakari Lang.

His loyalty belonged to Kusakari Yuichi! So, after Kusakari Yuichi went missing, he naturally refused to work for Kusakari Lang anymore.

Kusakari Lang saw all of this, but fortunately, the number of people supporting him was significant; with enough power, his plan could begin.

In the period that followed, Kusakari Lang pushed the issue of external conflict to the extreme.

He frantically consolidated the power in his hands and suppressed those old-school Yamaguchi-gumi members.

Among them was the Otomo Group, which refused to support him.

"Boss, we can't go on like this!" Mizuno, the Young Head of the Otomo Group, said irritably while smoking, speaking to Otomo Wu: "Our business has been encroached upon quite a bit!"

Otomo Wu said with a sorrowful expression: "How much has been encroached upon?"

"At least we've lost nearly thirty percent of our business!" Mizuno said indignantly: "That fellow Kusakari Lang talks about resisting external forces, but I think he's just trying to seize power while he can!"

Otomo Wu glanced at his Young Head and said coldly: "You talk too much!"

Knowing he had spoken out of turn, Mizuno could only shut his mouth.

After a moment of silence, Otomo Wu said: "If they want it, let them have it!"

"But the brothers' income is already low, and we often engage in armed fights; we can't even afford to pay for the brothers' medical bills!" Mizuno said loudly.

Otomo Wu could only say: "I will find a way!"

Saying this, Otomo Wu prepared to drive away immediately.

But just at this moment, a familiar voice came from behind Otomo Wu: "Hey, Otomo!"

Otomo Wu turned his head abruptly and saw a familiar figure.

Kusakari Yuichi smiled and said to Otomo Wu: "Long time no see, you fellow!"

Seeing Kusakari Yuichi standing before him, perfectly intact and moving freely, Otomo Wu suddenly felt a sense of unreality: "Kusakari... Boss? You are... wasn't it said that you went missing?"

Kusakari Yuichi waved his hand and said: "Ah, I ran into some small problems, but they've already been resolved! Would you like to have a drink with me when you have time?"

"Of course!" A smile appeared on Otomo Wu's previously stiff face.

Kusakari Yuichi said to Mizuno, who was beside Otomo Wu: "I remember your name is Mizuno, right? Come along too!"

After the two got into the car, Otomo couldn't help but ask: "Boss, what exactly happened? And why did you, who were perfectly fine, give up your position to your adopted son?"

Ever since Kusakari Yuichi became paralyzed, Otomo Wu had not seen him in person for a long time.

Now, with a series of questions in his mind, he couldn't wait to ask.

Kusakari Yuichi said indifferently: "I was just backstabbed by the person closest to me, it's nothing major."

"Ah? You mean... Kusakari Lang?" A flash of ferocity crossed Otomo Wu's eyes, as if he were ready to kill at any moment.

Kusakari Yuichi smiled, patted Otomo Wu on the shoulder, and said: "Now is not the time! I heard that within the Yamaguchi-gumi, many group members have defected to that rebellious son?"

Otomo Wu nodded: "He used Hongxing as a reason for external conflict to centralize power, and many fence-sitters have defected to him!"

"Those fence-sitters are not worth worrying about; I'm talking about... those with real power," Kusakari Yuichi said indifferently.

Otomo Wu pondered for a moment and said: "The actions of the Liangchuan Group's young lady surprised me greatly! But I haven't been able to figure out the reason!"

"I see, the Liangchuan Group, is it?" Kusakari Yuichi nodded slightly.

At this time, Mizuno, who had been holding back, spoke up: "Boss, that fellow Kusakari Lang is buying people's hearts everywhere and suppressing us; you must stand up for our Otomo Group!"

"Shut up, I am talking to the Boss; who allowed you to interrupt?" Otomo Wu immediately scolded him sternly.

Kusakari Yuichi smiled and patted Otomo on the shoulder: "It is normal for subordinates to feel wronged and come to me, their Boss, to complain; otherwise, managing such a massive organization would lead to problems!"

Since Kusakari Yuichi had spoken, Otomo Wu immediately nodded: "The Boss is right!"

Kusakari Yuichi smiled and said: "Since many people have been wronged, why don't you bring them all over, Otomo, and let me hear them out!"

Otomo Wu became excited and said to Kusakari Yuichi: "Boss, are you ready to fight back?"

To win over subordinates, it is nothing more than the carrot and the stick.

Now that Kusakari Lang had used the stick, if there were no carrots, this fragile alliance would likely fall apart in the end.

Therefore, what Kusakari Lang needed most now was to create a new source of wealth.

However, this did not stump the fellow, and he had already prepared a contingency plan.

He had originally intended to hand it over to Otomo Wu, the loyal dog, but this fellow was not of one mind with him.

So, Kusakari Lang found his own confidant to handle this matter.

"Ambassador Gaban?" Furuta Koji looked at Kusakari Lang in shock and said: "This... won't something go wrong?"

Kusakari Lang sneered and said: "Do you think this fellow is some kind of upright person? This guy invites clients to the embassy and lets them do drugs there; even if they get caught, the cops can't do anything because the ambassador has diplomatic immunity!" Hearing Kusakari Lang's words, Furuta Koji's eyes suddenly lit up: "You mean..."

Kusakari Lang smiled and said: "Get a hold on him, then make him run a casino; this way we can earn even more profit! I'll leave this matter to you; don't let me down!"

Furuta Koji revealed a ferocious expression on his face: "Leave it to me, Chief!"

And so, that very afternoon, Furuta Koji sought out the Ambassador of Gabanan.

This black man was very timid; seeing people from a yakuza organization show up at his door, he appeared extremely terrified.

"A casino, I cannot open a casino!" the Ambassador of Gabanan refused directly without even thinking.

Furuta Koji's Young Head sneered and said: "Don't you want to earn a little more?"

The black ambassador shook his head like a rattle: "This place is too small, a casino cannot be opened here!"

Furuta Koji said coldly: "Then move the embassy; we will find a new location!"

Hearing the suggestion proposed by Furuta Koji, the black man continued to shake his head: "No, I will not do business with you."

He originally did not want to get involved with local gangs, so he refused directly without any mercy.

Furuta Koji's expression turned ferocious, and he roared at the black man: "If you talk like that again, I'll slaughter you!"

As he spoke, Furuta Koji's subordinate drew a Handgun and pressed the muzzle against the black man's forehead.

This immediately scared the black man silly; his whole body began to tremble, and he hurriedly nodded.

Both sides quickly reached an agreement, but that guy Kusakari Lang did not trust the black man.

So he even had Furuta Koji specifically set a trap for the black man.

The next day, when both sides were discussing the cooperation, they specifically called over quite a few young ladies.

When they were drunk with the black man, they pushed a young lady onto him.

Then, that night, after the two were asleep, they snuck into the room and killed the young lady directly.

Then they placed the corpse beside the black man to take photos.

After finishing all this, they then woke the black man up.

The black man was still groggy from sleep; it was only after Furuta Koji pointed to the poor young lady who had stopped breathing beside him that he woke up in a fright, hurriedly explaining: "This isn't me... I didn't do this!"

Furuta Koji was indifferent, placed a stack of photos in front of the black man, and then said coldly: "Look at the good deed you've done!"

"Really, I didn't do it!" the black man explained, his words pale and weak.

Furuta Koji sneered and said: "Work for us, otherwise we will make the photos public!"

"Don't, don't, I beg you!" the black man began to plead.

Furuta Koji did not give him a chance to refuse, but instead said calmly: "You go first, we will clean up the mess!"

The black man knew he had fallen into the other party's trap, but he had no ability to resist, so he could only nod and agree.

He put on his clothes and left the hotel in a hurry.

A few days later, the people from the Yamaguchi-gumi found a new location for the Ambassador of Gabanan's embassy.

This was a Warehouse located at the Pier.

The ambassador was speechless: "This is the embassy location you found?"

"It's much more spacious than the original one!" Furuta Koji said calmly.

"But this is just a warehouse!"

"Cut the crap, get inside!"

Kusakari Lang had spent quite a bit of effort to find this new venue.

Although it was in the warehouse district, it was fortunately quiet and would not attract attention.

And compared to the cramped little space of the previous Gabanan embassy, this place was also more suitable for opening a casino.

With a place that naturally had immunity, he believed that gamblers would soon flock here.

After all, there was no risk of the Police raiding the place here.

After forcing the Ambassador of Gabanan to relocate the embassy, the Yamaguchi-gumi took over the remaining matters.

Kusakari Lang also had talent in his hands who specialized in running casinos, so once thrown to them, there was nothing else to worry about.

More than ten days later, the casino officially began operations.

Just as Kusakari Lang had expected, the casino inside the embassy indeed attracted many guests. Japan is a country that bans gambling, and with such a casino, the guests played very happily.

And through the operation of the embassy casino, Kusakari Lang successfully gathered a large wave of supporters within the Yamaguchi-gumi.

After all, those who live on the streets do it for money!

"Opening a casino inside an embassy, what a talent!"

Seeing Kusakari Lang's operation, Chen Jiajun could not help but say in surprise.

Kusakari Yuichi also laughed along: "This rebellious son's ideas are truly unrestrained!"

Chen Jiajun smiled and looked at Kusakari Yuichi, saying: "In this way, Mr. Kusakari, your odds of winning are lower! He is playing with a carrot and a stick, and playing it very beautifully!"

Kusakari Yuichi, however, said noncommittally: "But I don't think so."

"Oh?" Chen Jiajun became interested: "Does that mean Mr. Kusakari already has a strategy to deal with it?"

Kusakari Yuichi said calmly: "Relationships maintained by money will not last long! Their relationship is as fragile as building blocks; it will easily fall apart with a gentle push!"

Hearing that Kusakari Yuichi already had a strategy to deal with it, Chen Jiajun immediately laughed: "Alright, then I will let Shanjie take a few more steps back and let this kid Kusakari Lang be smug for a while!"

Kusakari Yuichi smiled and said: "Believe me, Mr. Chen! What you lose now will make you gain even more in the future!"

"Then I shall wait and see!" Chen Jiajun smiled and nodded. (End of chapter)
