1 New World; New Life

Kozuki Hannya can be seen standing motionless in a huge hall, he was wearing a black kimono. His entire body was bathed in blood, his silver hair that was previously tied in pony tail was untied which made it looked loosely dishevelled.

He watched the previously dignified buildings get engulf by raging flames while the courageous Yakuza's fought with all their might to drive off their enemies.

Multiple gunshots can be heard in the background along with roars of desperation that would resound from time to time.

Not too far from him, a Yakuza member exerted all of his strength on his both hands, his thick muscles bulge as he swung his katana towards his opponent.

Seeing the Yakuza's attack, the mafia on the receiving end immediately dashed to the side avoiding the Yakuza's attack, when the sword made contact to the ground Sparks from friction can be seen, the mafia member somersaulted while pulling his gun which was aimed at the Yakuza's head.

'Bang'

When gun was triggered, the Yakuza who was about to make another slash didn't make it in time and can only stare at the bullet until it borrowed in his skull.

When the Mafia member saw the death of his target, he roared in delight.

This kind of battle can be found everywhere. Yakuza's and Mafia's were trying to massacre each other.

Hannya felt pain each time he saw a Yakuza member falls, he's filled with frustration and powerlessness.

For some reason no one tried to attack him for real, at most they would just leave him with injuries. Just from this alone Hannya can tell that the leader of the Mafia's wants him alive.

The thought of escape didn't even came to mind as he was completely surrounded.

This kind of situation would normally make someone cry their hearts out but Hannya remained firm, he needed to remain firm.

The moment he took the mantle as the new leader of Yakuza's he already became their core, and if he showed any signs of losing hope, every Yakuza members would definitely lose their "will".

Like an army who lost their "General".

So he didn't display his emotions in the open, everything that he felt was kept locked in his heart.

But fate seems to be a lot cruel than he thought.

At this moment he heard a woman's shriek from behind, his body instinctively turned.

What he saw made the last pillar supporting him from losing his sanity crumble, he saw a man in suit with poisonous smile took his knife and stabbed it towards the woman.

Time slowed down..

He watched as the middle-aged woman fell to her knees, her eyes never left him and before she fell to the ground she even gave him a smile filled with love, care and worry.

This middle-aged woman was none other than his mother.

Looking at the dead body of the person who took care and love him from the moment he was born made his blood boil with uncontrollable anger.

"My child, no need to feel sad"

Like a stone dropped in a calm lake, ripples spread inside Hannya's heart when he heard those words. No need to feel sad? To hell with it. Those mafia started a massacre in his household. He will fight them to death.

Hannya completely lost his sanity.

He shouted with all his might, his bloodshot eyes looked at the mafia who killed his mother.

The sudden change startled the mafia member, last second this young man was like a firm stone, the next second he became a fierce tiger.

Using all his strength Hannya ran towards his target. As he got closer.. his expression started to become even more bloodthirsty but when he was about to slash his sword the surroundings suddenly changed, instead of burning household with countless bodies lying around, it was replaced with darkness, it's so dark that he couldn't even see a thing. This situation made Hannya feel at loss.

His frustration reached the peak, his eyes were looking everywhere trying to find anything or anyone to release his rage.

He looked like a fierce lion who just lost it's prey.

"There's no need for you to be that mad."

A deep mysterious voice emerged from the dark.

'this voice!!'

The moment he heard the voice, white light covered his entire body forcing his boiling emotions down which calmed him.

When he returned to normal, a bit fear started to crept up in his heart.

Humans always fear the unknown which is definitely true.

Hannya raised his guard and look at the surroundings trying to catch a glimpse of the mysterious figure.

"Who are you?" Hannya gathered his courage to ask.

"Well, let's just say, I'm the person who governs the life, death and rebirth"

Hannya was stunned, 'someone who governs the life, death and rebirth?' he stood in dazed while trying to process everything.

Seeing that Hannya is not responding the mysterious figure let out a chuckle.

"No need to be stunned, I am here to give you an opportunity."

"What opportunity?" After some time Hannya finally regained a bit of his calm and responded.

He is now at the point where he would accept the devils temptation just to avenge his family.

Desperate situations can only be solve using desperate measures.

"I can help you with anything as long as it's related to Life, Death and Rebirth."

He was stunned by the unexpected response he got. He was only trying his luck, he didn't expect that this mysterious entity would give him hope.

Without an ounce of hesitation he kneeled.

"Please, if you're really someone who governs the life and death of people, I begged you to save my family and I shall offer you my soul."

"I'm sorry but it's not possible in your world and also I don't need your soul."

Hannya froze in place. He felt like everything around him started to crumble while the light in his eyes started to slowly dim.

"So basically, you can't do anything to help me?"

"Don't feel down, I can still reincarnate your family but it would be in one of my world"

When he heard this, the light on his eyes slowly regained it's glory, he patiently waited for other party to complete his words.

"I will reincarnate your family but you will not be able to stay with them because I need you in a different world, since I'm going to help, you need to do something for me in return."

When he heard this Hannya felt a bit down, it feels like this mysterious person is toying with his emotions. Just when he thought that he will be able to live with his family, the mysterious figure just shattered his short-lived dream without an ounce of consideration.

"I will do anything as long as you can prove it to me, show me the reincarnation of my clan." Hannya replied with great determination. It was enough for him, as long as his family lives happily, it doesn't matter whether it's going to be in another world, still he need to confirm it with his very own eyes.

"Hoh, doubting my words are we?" The mysterious person chuckled and simply waved his hands.

Multiple white orbs appeared in the surroundings that gave light to the entire place, the only area that was still covered darkness is where the mysterious person stood.

Hannya observed the orbs who were slowly forming human figures with transparent features. As he look closely, familiar faces entered his line of vision.

"Mom! Dad! Grandpa! Everyone!" They were his family, the people who took care and loved him.

Everyone in his family just gave him a smile and didn't reply. In just a few minutes the dark place turned transparent and he could see multiple planets in different sizes. Everyone turned into orbs once again and was sent to different planets.

Hannya can only stand in place with his hands in grasping motion as if he want to stop everyone from leaving.. tears formed in his eyes, threatening to fall anytime.

"Now, I reincarnated your entire clan so it's now your turn, I will be sending you to world that is extremely important for a being like me. You should be familiar with this world as it's one of the books you read in your free time.You will become my representative and I need you to..."

The latter part of the words were sent to Hannya.

After settling down his emotions, Hannya looked at the mysterious person who was covered in darkness: "I understand, I shall keep my end of deal. So which world is it?"

"You will know when you get there. Let me give you something to aid your journey."

Light orb appeared on top of Hannya's head and sucked his soul out from his body.

...

The moment Hannya woke up from deep slumber, he found himself floating in front of a huge revolving planet. Compared to Earth it's a lot bigger, the entire planet could astound anyone with just it's beauty.

While admiring it's beauty from afar, he was startled by the sudden notification.

Hannya was stunned by the consecutive notifications. A few minutes after, he suddenly felt like smirking but he can't since he was still in soul form.

Since he need to create a body, he pondered for awhile, slowly a silhouette was formed in his mind.

Being born in a Yakuza family, since he was young, he was trained to become a Yakuza Leader.

Back when he was in highschool there was a character that he liked. It was the Great Yakuza Leader of Demons, Nurarihyon.
