Chapter 288: Each has a ghost
Toei, Kyoto Prefecture.
The sand brought up by the tornado lasted for several hours before the dust settled.
When the sun was once again sown along the cloudless sky, a sensational news spread throughout the city.
"Have you heard, the original magnificent Okamoto Casino was actually razed to the ground in the previous storm, and the broken wall was like a knife cut, and the house next door was not affected in the slightest!"
"Isn't it said that the design of Okamoto Casino is extremely advanced and can withstand explosions and magnitude 8 earthquakes, how can this be?"
"It is said that the area of the Okamoto Casino, in ancient times, was the habitat of mythical beasts, and today Kyoto Prefecture has a natural vision, could it be the awakening of giant beasts?"
“......”
There are different opinions, and various versions have been derived from the bulldozed Okamoto casino.
No one knows which one is true.
But noncommittal.
Okamoto Casino, it's really gone!
......
Kyoto Prefecture.
The inner courtyard of the shogunate, the most heavily defended conference hall.
Four people were kneeling opposite each other at a table.
Among the four people, in addition to two old men who were nearly seventy years old, there was also a middle-aged man in his fifties, and a short and fat man in his early thirties.
The shogunate, which represents the highest military rank in a city, is the government office responsible for the administration and finance of the shogunate, and it is also the waiting place for the imperial family (samurai) who have formed a master-subordinate relationship with the shogunate, and the inquisition office for hearing the lawsuits of the imperial family, which is very similar to the martial arts in various cities in China.
The four people present were all the top and most prominent in the city.
The man in the suit, who was over 50 years old, was the leader of the largest yakuza in Kyoto Prefecture, Okamoto Yiryu.
The short and fat man next to him was the culprit who tricked the white ape into going to Wanjian Mountain Villa to steal the cicada wing knife in Huaxia, Yamazaki Gotsuka.
As for the two old men, they are even more characters who can make the city tremble with a stomp of their feet.
The eldest is the head of the Kyoto Shogunate, Akamatsu Tsuyoshi, who has the power to mobilize the samurai of the entire city.
As for the other, it is the head of the local Koga ninja organization, Tsugum Toriyama.
These four people are enough to represent the pinnacle of force, power, and wealth in this city.
It stands to reason that within the jurisdiction of Kyoto Prefecture, there is nothing that these four people can't do when they join forces, but at this moment, they are all frowning and silent.
After a long time, Okamoto Yilong, who had a fiery personality, couldn't hold back his temperament at first, and looked at Akamatsu Gang: "Lord Akamatsu, my Okamoto family, has been standing in Kyoto for hundreds of years, and the destruction of the casino today is a great shame for me. ”
"Before you came, I had received a message from my subordinates that the casino had been destroyed. Akamatsu Gang had a gloomy face and was noncommittal.
"Not only Mr. Akamatsu, but I also got a lot of feedback, and today, many ninjas in the city have felt a strong power fluctuation!" Toriyama Tsuya on the side also nodded slightly, indicating that he had heard a little about this matter.
"The person who made trouble in the casino today is a young man from China, and it is said that he named me in the casino!"
Yamazaki Gotsuka took over the words and looked at the two: "Two adults, I, Yamazaki Gotsuka, am usually in the Huaxia Domain, always obey the law and never cross the line, the only place where people can be caught is because they were assigned by the two to participate in the theft of the cicada wing knife, presumably, this young man looking for me must have something to do with this matter!"
"Two, my beloved son-in-law took such a big risk, everything was for the sake of the Dongying Empire, and now my Okamoto family has suffered revenge because of this, two adults, you will not ignore it, right?"
Okamoto Yilong said what he meant.
"In your opinion, how do we intervene in this?"
Akamatsu Tsuyoshi frowned slightly, obviously with obvious resentment towards Okamoto Yilong's attitude towards the following crimes.
Although the Inagawa Society is powerful, compared to the shogunate, it is like a toothless tiger that can only bark wildly.
"Lord Akamatsu misunderstood, I didn't come here to ask the teacher. ”
Although Okamoto Yilong is the leader of the Inagawa Society, compared with the shogunate leaders like Tsuyoshi Akamatsu, who is in charge of countless masters, he naturally does not dare to make a mistake, so he can only adjust his mood, and said with a pleasant face: "Two adults, you also know that Okamoto Casino, for me, is an important channel to absorb wealth, and now that the casino is destroyed, it will not only affect my financial resources, but if I don't do anything, it will make those opponents of the Yamaguchi-gumi laugh at me, so please ask the two adults to make decisions for us!"
When the two old men heard this, they were silent.
"Two adults, you also know that the young man has destroyed my casino, not only that, but the two top masters of the Nakanobi Nakata Yumi and the shadow warrior Mochizuki Yukimura under the name of the Inagawa Society also died in this battle, I have the heart to take revenge, but my ability is really limited!"
Okamoto Yilong put his hands on his knees and bowed heavily: "Please!"
"In the name of the shogunate, I will issue a notice saying that the Chinese spies have infiltrated the Kyoto Prefecture with the intention of disturbing my Dongying Dynasty, and Inagawa will care about his family and country and take the initiative to resist, and at the same time, he will also send a group of elite samurai to assist you!"
After a long time, Akamatsu Gang sighed and took the lead in expressing his attitude.
In any case, Mochizuki Yukimura, who died in battle today, is also a shadow samurai and belongs to the jurisdiction of the shogunate, and since he died unexpectedly, since Okamoto Yilong asked the shogunate for help for the death of an imperial family, he really has no reason to shirk.
"Since Mr. Akamatsu is willing to help, my Koga faction can't sit idly by, not to mention letting a Chinese person show off his might in my Dongying realm, it will also lose the face of our entire Kyoto Prefecture martial arts, in this case, I will also send two combat ninjas and two illusion ninjas to act with you. ”
Toriyamatsu lit a cigarette with a gloomy gaze and said softly: "According to the information I have obtained, that Huaxia youth's methods are very unusual, so before you start, it is best to make sufficient plans to avoid adding fearless casualties." ”
"I don't know Lord Toriyama, but what do you think?"
Okamoto Yilong knew how cunning the old fox Toriyamatsu was, and believed that he was definitely not untargeted.
"Your subordinate Nakata Yumi is one of the three major families of the Iga School, the disciple of the Hundred Land Family, and her master Hundred Ground Sho is still the mainstay of the Hundred Land Family, sitting firmly in the position of one of the three elders, according to the family motto of the Hundred Land Family, once someone dies unexpectedly, it is necessary to take revenge at all costs, presumably, at this moment, the news of Nakata Yumi's death has spread to the Hundred Land Family, so you will not be the only one who wants revenge today. ”
Toriyama Tsu smiled slightly, his expression calm.
There is even a faint hint of pleasure.
Iga and Koga have always been regarded as the two extremes of fire and water.
At that time, the Iga school made great contributions in the founding war of Toei, and its power had a very far-reaching influence in the imperial capital, and once became the largest armed force in Toei, if it were not for the division and internal strife within the Iga ninja in the later period, I am afraid that it would have dominated Toei.
And although Koga is an existence at the top of the mountain alongside Iga, Iga has the support of the Toei royal family, so he is always a head above Koga.
Therefore, today's deal with that Huaxia young man can make the people of the Iga school test the depth first, and Toriyama Tsu is naturally happy to sit back and enjoy it.
