Chapter 49 : Foreign Affairs (1)

# I'm not dead yet… they didn't finish the job. IRL stuff happened, anyway to the chapter.

--

My fight came to an end after I incapacitate the last fighter. As I made my way back to my VIP sitting. I saw the others cheering me on. Wait didn't I just kill someone inside the ring?

"That's a spectacular show! And the props look so realistic!"

"Yeah. Who's the producer? I would love to get him to make props for my shows later."

"And when the guy's head goes poof! Hahaha that's funny, he must have quick hands to swap them out."

Hmmm it seems like the girls are still thinking it's all fake. Well that's strange I mean I can even smell blood all the way up here.

"Well I can always set you up with Majima-dono. It's state of the art props, and I'm proud to be the one who brought it here."

"Huh Hideyoshi? When did you get here? "

"Just now, Ah maou-sama, I suggest you dress up and head to TJC HQ, it seems that Ryuji has just left. Something's fishy is going on maou-sama."

Hmmm Ryuji have left early? That's not like him. He would jump in the chance for a good fight. Hideyoshi's right, it does sound fishy.

"What about the others? Uncle Kaz? Uncle Majima?"

"It seems that the florist knows what's going on you should go see him after this."

"Ah that's a good idea, what about Yu, what are Yu planning to do?"

Yu looks at me with determination, as if saying he'll come with. But before he can answer I talked first.

"I have an Idea Yu, since you're in Tokyo, why don't you go towards sightseeing locations like the Tokyo Tower? Or the theme park? I'm sure they'll enjoy it." I said while pointing towards the girls.

This caught the girls attention as they started discussing sights in Tokyo. Seeing the girls occupied, I pulled Sakamoto and Yu.

"Keep your eyes out. Yu, Sakamoto, tonight's going to be messy. I suggest you head back to Inaba before nightfall. And trust no one." I said in a whisper. Seeing both of them nod, I bid goodbye, before I left, I make sure to check on Hideyoshi and Isshin, as we made eye contact, I nod, they returned in kind, knowing what will go down tonight. I've warned them. I just hope they're smart enough to make the right decision.

--

I was escorted by a staff member to the florist's office. I saw another room full of monitors. Just like Nasa's space station's mission control room.

"Akira! Splendid work. Because of you, we manage to weed out most of the remnants of the JingWeon mafia."

"The pleasure's all mine."

"So I assume you know what's going down right now?"

"I have a clue, but no definite proof. Tell me is Ryuji working with the JingWeon Mafia?"

"Ohoho, straight to the point huh Akira?"

I merely nodded.

He stood up from his chair and pressed a button on his keyboard, all of the screen now shows Ryuji. From multiple angles, and multiple times of day if I observe closely.

"I've been monitoring him. A job from Kiryu-san. He said that Ryuji's up to something, at first I didn't believe him, but nevertheless I kept tabs on him whenever I could. He goes to the same bar, orders the same drink and on occasion meets a new person, but nothing out of the ordinary. but then when you took over OA."

All the screens suddenly synchronized into one scene, with multiple camera angles.

---

Third POV:

In a high end club owned by OA, in Osaka.

"GOD DAMNIT!" Ryuji Slams his hands onto a table.

"What's the matter boss?" asks one of his underlings.

"I've been played by him this whole time!"

"Huh? Well can't we just off him, if he gets into your nerves boss!?"

"OFF HIM? I WOULD HAVE IF I CAN! NOW HE HOLDS THE OA, EVEN MORE THAN ME! FUCK!"

"Huh? How can someone take over the OA in a small amount of time? And shouldn't you be happy boss? I mean your sister has been well and good this whole time, just hiding. Aren't you at least glad she's safe boss?"

*Bang* the table broke, as Ryuji's fist slammed down on it hard.

----

"Huh why does it cut off there. We're just about to get to the good part."

"Apparently, someone tampered with the local recording. We managed to get a shot of people entering the club right before it happened."

He said as the monitors now show a group of men in suits. They don't seem to be from OA or the TJC. that just leaves the Triads or the JingWeon Mafia.

"So these are the men responsible?"

"You could say that. Although we cannot say for certain their allegiance. But they're not ours for sure."

Well this just complicates things. In the original work, he should be a lone wolf in the organization, only having men from the OA, although he will conspire with the JingWeon Mafia later, only after he found out who his mother and father were. Although he is Jin Goda's son, he's just adopted, brought up by the man, as his real father is the head of the JingWeon Mafia, who died by Kiryu's hands indirectly.

"So, where is he now?"

"Stardust. Though I don't recommend you going there."

The screen once again changes as now, everything is showing Kamurocho, a red light district in tokyo. It seems that it's raining heavily outside, as A lot of men in black with umbrellas are in sight. Some are from OA. while the rest I guess are from the JingWeon Mafia I counted 40 in total. It's not a large number by any means. But it's an unusual sight.

"Thanks for the info Sai-san, any fee for this?"

"It's on the house."

"I'll be leaving then"

"Akira."

Before I took a step towards the elevator, Sai called out to me.

"Use this instead, it'll take you close to stardust."

The monitors suddenly open up revealing a passageway. Ah the infamous sewer passage way huh. I guess this would give me the element of surprise.

---

I found myself under a manhole. Peeking up slowly and with a smile I can spot a lot of Mafias and Yakuzas walking around. The rain is heavy, and visibility is somewhat low. This is a good environment for a bloodbath.

I crawled out slowly, as they still hadn't noticed me, as I emerged from an alleyway. When one of them patrols near me, I quickly grabbed his whole body, while performing a choke hold. I quickly found his weapon by his belt and held it at his head, and radiated a bit of killing intent.

"Talk."

That's all I said, but the man literally blurted out everything he knew, there seems to be a total of 45 people, 30 from OA and 15 from JingWeon. It seems that Ryuji had brought an officer with him. Which is taking a break near a convenience store. Convenient. I simply choked him till he passed out, which I then put his body away from people's sight. Stripping him naked and wearing his clothes in the process.

I simply walked past everything and headed towards the convenience store, by the back of the store I saw a man wearing a suit with a cigarette in his hand.

"Tell me the situation."

"Huh? Who are ----"

I simply glared at him and pulled back the hammer of the gun.

"Remember who I am now?"

"M-m-maou-sama…"

He looks left and right, panicked, finding a way to escape. But sadly for him no one pays attention here. I noticed a flash from the sky indicating that a lighting will strike within a moment.

*bang*

I fired a warning shot at the same time as the thunder strike, I aimed towards his shoes, barely missing it.

"You'll know why they call me a maou if you don't start talking."

"It's all Ryuji-sama's fault ---"

Same as the other guy, he spilled the beans. It seems that today Ryuji is meeting someone from the JingWeon Mafia. I wonder who it is. And it seems that he's quite high up the ladder, as this guy seems to bring in reinforcements that'll be arriving soon. I checked the time on my phone. It's 5:30. It seems that I have less than an hour to finish everything up here.

"Ok then, tell everyone to get ready to eliminate the JingWeon Mafia after I give the signal. I want nobody left alive. And If you don't you would wish that bullet hit your head instead of the floor."

"W-w-w-waga, Maou!"

Ah look he stutters now when he talks. He immediately relayed the message with a radio. I nodded towards him. And since everyone from OA is outside of the club, I also told him about what I 'found out' about the Mafia and they are secretly trying to 'take out' my brother Ryuji. he bought it in a heartbeat. I also relayed a few instructions for them.

---

Standing in front of stardust, I saw quite a lot of people walking around, but no one in particular is paying attention to it. No one is also coming close to it as a row of men in suits are protecting its perimeter. It's business as usual for everyone here. The rain showed no sign of stopping, nor does the pedestrians, but suddenly it became less and less crowded. Until there's not a single soul but me standing in front of stardust along with the men in suits.

Some of them sense something's wrong as they unconsciously looks around looking weary, while the rest are not weary at all, this makes it easier for me to distinguish OA from JWM(I'll just shorten JingWeon Mafia to JWM), evident by the confused looks.

A white light flashed towards the sky, I readied my gun pointing at the head of the confused JWM member, and pulled the trigger timing it with the lighting's boom.

*bang*

That's the signal that's needed for the OA to start cleaning up. They engaged in battle as I walk peacefully inside Stardust.

---

"I'm sorry sir we're currently ---"

I stared down the man who's talking, as he stopped mid way, and slowly he backed off. I remember him being one of the staff and host.

"Evacuate non combatants."

"I'm sorry what ---"

I didn't let him finish as I entered the club. The club has a simple design being the first floor a general dancefloor with a bar, and the second floor which is by the edges of the wall are VIP settings, these VIP sittings can see the dance floor clearly. As I also can see them clearly. I saw Ryuji there talking to a somewhat lean man.

Moments later I can see from the corner of my eyes, hostess are leaving and so are the bartenders, the DJ and other staff. Their movement has not gone unnoticed by both of the men. As the lean man sent all of his goons downstairs towards me. There's 5 of them. Waiting until they're close enough, I leaped towards one of them striking his throat with fist. I readied my gun as I executed him with a headshot, using his limping body as a shield. I proceed to pop the heads of his fellow extras.

It all happened in less than 5 seconds. The gun really trivializes a lot of things.

I walked up slowly towards their table.

"So, brother, tell me what are you talking about?"

If looks can kill I believe that I'll be dead a few times over.

"Why are you making a deal with this scum?"

"Don't mess with me Akira, you may have won father's and my little sister's heart. But that does not make us family."

"Oh of course not, I know it, you know it. And don't act like you care just because it's convenient. You knew it right? That you're not his son."

"Of course, even an ape knew that I'm not his son, asshole."

"Good, then why are you acting like a spoiled brat? What does the world owe you? Is being raised by the old men not enough?"

"What are you getting at here Akira!? You came here, broke down my dealings, and what? You're gonna tell the old man that I'm a traitor too so you can take OA for yourself?"

A fist came towards me as I catched it with one hand.

*Bang*

I felt the weight of the punch. It's infused with touki. As I was shocked by his power a knee came to my face. I tanked the hit and kicked his other knee hard, losing his balance, I grabbed his head and slammed it into the modern looking table, stunning him.

This gives me a moment to see the other person on the table. He looks like a boring man, with a panicked face. But then I noticed something in his belt, ah he's a public security officer. So the JWM has insider information too huh.

"Really, brother, bothering yourself with a PubSec JWM member? What are you trying to gain? Oh wait did they tell you already?"

"What are you saying you little shit?"

Another fist comes towards me, this time aiming for my solar plexus. I held the oncoming strike by the wrist to redirect it, then sending a knee to his stomach, bending his body into a C position.

"Hey, PubSec, have you told him about his mother?"

"YOU LITTLE FUCKER! YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO MENTION HER!"

He came at me again with a reckless charge attempting to grab me, I simply kicked him in the face with a running start, sending him tumbling towards the sofa. Man he sure is tough.

"W-w-what are you talking about?"

The PubSec panics.

"Oh you haven't? Then let me tell him, Ryuji, your mother is the ex-wife of JWM boss. Yup that's right, your father is none-other than the big boss himself."

I said in a matter of fact tone.

"L-Lies! Those are Lies Ryuiji! I'm on your side! He's lying!! Don't you want to know who kills your mother? It's Kiryu Kazuma, your mother died by his hand---!"

Before he continued speaking I simply sucker punched him. Rendering him unconscious.

As I look towards Ryuji. He had a somewhat betrayed look, along with a look of disbelief and confusion.

"Confirm it yourself."

"Huh?"

"You're not a kid anymore, you're old enough to reach out to the truth."

"Hahaha! HAHAHAHAHAH! YOU? A KID? TELLING ME THAT! YOU THINK I DON'T KNOW HE'S SPOUTING BULLSHIT! BUT I NEED A NAME! NOT THIS! I WAS ABOUT TO GET A NAME BEFORE YOU CAME ALONG YOU LITTLE SHIT!"

"Then a name you'll get."

"SEE YOU DON'T EVEN GET A NAM--- WHAT? WHO IS IT! TELL ME!!!!"

"His name is …"

"Daejin Kim"

I looked towards the entrance as an old man with a wheelchair came in.
