The God of Wealth starts with doing whatever you want

A black minivan screeched to a stop in front of a modern office building in Tokyo's Minato Ward.

The building looks no different from the other commercial buildings around it, with its glass curtain wall reflecting a cold light in the afternoon sun.

If it weren't for the unassuming bronze plaque at the entrance that reads "Yamaguchi Bussan Co., Ltd.", no one would guess that this is the headquarters of the Yamaguchi-gumi, Japan's largest designated yakuza group.

"Right, right here..."

The tattooed man in the driver's seat, Taro Yamada, spoke in a trembling voice, his knuckles white as he gripped the steering wheel.

The scarred man in the passenger seat, Yamaguchi Tiger, had a livid face and fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

He looked out the car window at the building, his throat dry.

The short, stout man in the back seat, Takeru Satoh, huddled up in a ball, muttering repeatedly, "It's over...it's really over..."

Only Xu Yun remained calm and composed.

He straightened his wrinkled collar and took his phone out of his pocket.

That was something that Xu Yun had asked for back when Yamaguchi Tiger had "kept" it safe, under the pretext that he "needed to contact his family to raise money."

Yamaguchi Tiger turned around warily and asked, "W-what are you going to do?"

"Send a message to let everyone know I'm safe."

Xu Yun didn't even look up, his fingers rapidly tapping on the screen.

He opened the WeChat group called "Three Thousand Beauties in the Harem" and sent a short message:

[I'm at the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters, come rescue me immediately!]

Sent successfully.

Almost the instant the message was sent, the group chat exploded.

Su Mu: "What?! Xu Yun, where are you?!"

Zhong Yanyan: "Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters? We're on our way!"

Li Jinshu: "Xu Yun, hang in there! Lin Wanzhou and the others are already on their way!"

Hino: "Don't be impulsive! Wait for us!"

A barrage of replies flooded the screen.

But Xu Yun no longer had time to watch it.

He put his phone back in his pocket, opened the car door, took a long stride, and landed steadily.

The afternoon sun was a bit too bright, so he squinted and looked at the twenty-plus-story building in front of him.

Four men dressed in black suits and wearing sunglasses stood at the entrance of the building.

They were burly and stood ramrod straight. Although they tried to appear like businessmen, their sharp eyes and the faint outlines of tattoos behind their ears still betrayed their identities.

"Mr. Xu..."

Yamaguchi Tora also got out of the car and asked in a weak voice, "Are you really... really going in?"

Xu Yun turned around and glanced at him, then smiled: "Since we're already here, how can we not come in and sit down? Weren't you here to bring me to collect the reward?"

"But...but..." Yamaguchi Tora hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

His original plan was to drop Xu Yun off at the door, then call the Yamaguchi-gumi and say that they had "rescued" Xu Yun, in order to ask for some reward money and then run away quickly.

But judging from Xu Yun's current posture, he is clearly going to charge in all by himself!
What’s the difference between this and committing suicide?
"Alright, your mission is complete."

Xu Yun patted Yamaguchi Tiger on the shoulder, his tone as relaxed as if he were saying goodbye to an ordinary friend: "Hurry up and go, while you can still go."

After saying that, he turned and walked straight toward the building entrance.

His steps were steady, and his back was upright.

Yamaguchi and his two companions stood there, looking at Xu Yun's retreating figure and exchanging bewildered glances.

Sato Takeru asked in a trembling voice, "Tiger, what...what do we do?"

"What else can we do? Run!"

Yamaguchi gritted his teeth, opened the car door, and said, "Get in! Let's get out of Tokyo! No, get out of Japan!"

"That bounty..."

"What bounty do you want! I'm lucky to even be alive!"

The black van roared to life, its tires screeching as it sped away from the scene.

At this moment, Xu Yun had already reached the entrance of the building.

Four men in black stepped forward at the same time, blocking his way.

The leader was a man in his thirties.

He looked Xu Yun up and down, and said coldly in Japanese, "This is a private office area. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed. Do you have an appointment?"

Xu Yun stopped and calmly glanced at the four people before replying in fluent Japanese, "I didn't make an appointment, but I'm sure your team leader would be happy to see me."

The man frowned: "The team leader is not seeing guests today, please leave."

"Really? If I said..."

Xu Yun spoke slowly, a hint of amusement in his voice, and said with a smile, "I'm the Chinese person you've been searching all over Tokyo for these past few days."

"!!!"

The four men in black all changed their expressions at the same time!
The leader instinctively reached for his waist—it was bulging there, clearly concealing a weapon.

The other three quickly dispersed, forming a semi-circle around Xu Yun, their eyes instantly turning sharp as knives.

"You...you're the Chinese man who was kidnapped?" The man's voice was filled with disbelief.

These past few days, the entire Yamaguchi-gumi has been thrown into chaos by this "missing Chinese man."

From the crackdown on Chinese community organizations to police checks, and even the Prime Minister's official residence calling to exert pressure this morning.

All the higher-ups are frantically searching for this person's whereabouts.

But now, this person has actually come to us of his own accord?
"Replacement guaranteed."

Xu Yun shrugged and asked with a smile, "What, aren't you going to invite me in for a seat?"

The man took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.

He stared at Xu Yun for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled: "Since Mr. Xu has taken the initiative to visit, we are of course happy to welcome you. Please follow me."

He turned to the side and made a "please" gesture.

But his eyes signaled to his companion to "keep an eye on him".

Xu Yun seemed oblivious to their little actions and leisurely strode into the building.

The lobby was spacious and bright, with a marble floor that gleamed like a mirror. Two young women with impeccable makeup sat at the front desk, looking no different from the receptionists of an ordinary company.

But Xu Yun could sense that at least three pairs of eyes were locked onto him from different directions in the shadows.

Cameras, and guards hidden in the shadows.

The man led Xu Yun to the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

The elevator doors slowly closed, leaving only the two of them in the cramped space.

"Mr. Xu is really brave."

The man suddenly spoke, his tone probing, asking, "You dare to come to our headquarters all alone? Aren't you afraid you won't return?"

Xu Yun leaned against the elevator wall and said lazily, "Scared? Of course I'm scared, that's why I'm here to have a good talk with your team leader."

"Talk? Talk about what?"

"Let's discuss how to resolve this matter."

Xu Yun turned to look at him and said, "Your Yamaguchi-gumi has suffered quite a few losses these past few days, hasn't it? Seven of your strongholds were raided by Chinese organizations, two casinos were smashed, three money shops were robbed, and three of your junior managers were seriously injured... All of this was caused by me."

He learned all this information through the system.

Now that the system is with Xu Yun, it's no longer just a simple super-rich system.

"..."

The man's expression changed.

The ordinary team members had no idea about the specific figures for these internal losses. How could this Chinese person know so much about them?
Is it...

Were those attacks really related to him?

"Ding--"

The elevator reaches the top floor.

The moment the door opened, Xu Yun felt at least five killing intents lock onto him.

Eight men dressed in black stood in the corridor, each with a burly build and fierce eyes.

Their hands were inside their suits, clearly ready to draw their guns at any moment.

"The team leader is waiting for you in the conference room."

The man gestured and said, "But before that, we need to conduct a security check on you."

"Security check?"

Xu Yun raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, are you afraid I'll bring weapons?"

"Mr. Xu, these are the rules." The man said expressionlessly.

Xu Yun smiled and opened his arms: "Okay, search."

Two men in black stepped forward and carefully searched Xu Yun's body.

They checked everything from the coat to the pockets of the pants, and even the soles of the shoes.

Nothing came of it.

Xu Yun had nothing on him except his phone and wallet.

"Is it okay now?" Xu Yun asked.

The scarred man nodded, but the wariness in his eyes remained undiminished.

How could someone who dared to storm the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters alone be truly unarmed?

But he did not find any weapons.

"plz follow me."

The man led Xu Yun toward the double solid wood doors at the end of the corridor.

Two guards stood on either side of the door. They bowed slightly upon seeing the man and pushed the door open.

The conference room is very large, at least 200 square meters.

The huge floor-to-ceiling windows offer stunning views of Tokyo Bay, with its azure sea and blue sky.

Six people sat around the long conference table, all middle-aged men in their forties or fifties, dressed in expensive custom-made suits and exuding a composed demeanor.

But Xu Yun could tell at a glance that these people had calluses on their hands and a fierce look in their eyes.

That's the look in someone who's wielded a knife for years and seen blood.

A man around sixty years old was sitting in the main seat.

His hair was gray and neatly combed, and he wore gold-rimmed glasses, making him look more like a scholar or entrepreneur.

But Xu Yun knew.

This man is Kenichi Shinoda (pseudonym), the sixth-generation leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi, a man who controls Japan's largest yakuza gang and has tens of thousands of members under his command.

The man bowed and reported, "Team leader, the person has been brought."

Shinoda Kenichi raised his head and his gaze fell on Xu Yun.

His gaze was calm, even gentle, but Xu Yun could sense the scrutiny and pressure beneath that calm.

"You're Xu Yun?"

Shinoda Kenichi spoke, his voice deep and magnetic.

Xu Yun nodded, responding without flinching, "Yes, it's me."

"Please have a seat." Shinoda Kenichi gestured to the empty seat opposite the conference table.

Xu Yun didn't stand on ceremony, pulled out a chair and sat down, his posture as relaxed as if he were at home.

The other five executives in the conference room stared at him with complicated expressions.

There was curiosity, vigilance, and undisguised hostility.

"Mr. Xu really surprised me."

Kenichi Shinoda said slowly, "We used all our connections and resources to search for you all over Tokyo, but we didn't expect you to come here on your own."

“I heard you were looking for me, so I came.”

Xu Yun smiled and replied, "It saves you the trouble."

These words were spoken lightly, but everyone present could hear the provocation in them.

A high-ranking executive in a suit couldn't help but slam his fist on the table and stand up: "Baka! What kind of attitude is this! Do you know where you are?!"

Xu Yun glanced at him, his tone remaining calm: "I know, it's the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters, otherwise why would I be here?"

"You!" The man's face turned red with anger.

Shinoda Kenichi waved his hand: "Alright, Yamamoto, sit down."

The high-ranking official known as Yamamoto glared at Xu Yun before reluctantly sitting back down.

Shinoda Kenichi adjusted his glasses, looked at Xu Yun, and said, "Mr. Xu, let's not beat around the bush. These past few days, our Yamaguchi-gumi has suffered heavy losses because of your 'disappearance'."

Chinese community groups raided seven of our locations, the police came to check us every day, and even the Prime Minister's official residence called to put pressure on us.

You should already know all this, right?

"I've heard a little about it," Xu Yun nodded.

"So, can you tell me what exactly happened?"

Kenichi Shinoda's eyes sharpened as he said, "We, the Yamaguchi-gumi, have never kidnapped you, so why does everyone think it was us?"

The meeting room fell silent.

All eyes were on Xu Yun.

Xu Yun leaned back in his chair, tapping his fingers lightly on the table. After a few seconds of silence, he suddenly laughed.

"Team Leader Shinoda, you shouldn't be asking me this question, should you?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean……"

Xu Yun leaned forward, looking directly at Shinoda Kenichi, and asked, word by word, "Didn't you kidnap me and bring me here?"

"!!!"

The air in the conference room froze instantly.

The expressions of the five senior executives changed drastically at the same time.

Yamamoto stood up abruptly: "Nonsense! When did we kidnap you!"

Kenichi Shinoda's face also darkened: "Mr. Xu, this kind of joke is not funny."

"I'm not joking." Xu Yun shrugged and said, "This morning, I was locked in an abandoned warehouse by three kidnappers."

They said they would take me to the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters to collect the bounty, and then they brought me here.

"I'm right here. Tell me, if this isn't me you kidnapped, then who is?"

Yamamoto demanded sharply, "Where are the three kidnappers?!"

"Run away."

Xu Yun said matter-of-factly, "They dropped me off at the door and drove off. What, didn't you receive their call? Didn't we agree to give them a reward?"

"Bagaya road!"

Yamamoto trembled with rage and roared, "We don't know any kidnappers at all! And we never promised any bounty!"

Other senior executives also spoke up:
"This is clearly a frame-up!"

"Someone is trying to provoke a conflict between us and the Chinese community!"

"Mr. Xu, have you been used by someone?"

The conference room was noisy.

Shinoda Kenichi raised his hand, and everyone immediately fell silent.

He stared at Xu Yun and slowly said, "Mr. Xu, I assure you in my capacity as the leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi that we have never kidnapped you, nor do we know any kidnappers."

This is a deliberate attempt to frame us.

"Team Leader Shinoda, if you say it wasn't you, then who could it be?" Xu Yun retorted.

"That's exactly what I wanted to ask you."

Shinoda Kenichi said in a deep voice, "Mr. Xu, have you offended anyone in Japan? Or is there anyone who wants to use you to deal with our Yamaguchi-gumi?"

Xu Yun thought for a moment, then shook his head with a smile: "This is my first time in Japan, who could I possibly offend? As for using me to deal with you... I have no idea."

"..."

The conference room fell silent again.

Everyone is thinking quickly.

This is too strange.

The kidnappers took Xu Yun to the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters and then ran away.

Xu Yun walked in by himself, saying that he had been "kidnapped".

Meanwhile, outside, Chinese communities, police, and even international mercenaries were all searching for Xu Yun, and everyone believed that the Yamaguchi-gumi were the kidnappers.

This is a perfect frame-up!

"Team leader!"

A senior executive who had been silent suddenly spoke up, saying, "Regardless of whether we did it or not, Mr. Xu is with us now, and those people outside will come knocking on our door soon. We must make a decision immediately."

Kenichi Shinoda certainly understood this principle.

Xu Yun is now a hot potato.

Letting him go would be tantamount to admitting that you have a guilty conscience.

If we don't let him go, things will get even more difficult to handle when those people outside come knocking on our door.

"Mr. Xu."

Shinoda Kenichi took a deep breath and said, "I suggest you stay here for now. Once we find out the truth, we will let you leave safely."

During this time, we will ensure your safety.

That's a polite way of putting it, but the meaning is very clear.

House arrest.

Xu Yun smiled and asked, "Team Leader Shinoda, do you think I would agree?"

"You have no choice."

Shinoda Kenichi's voice turned cold as he said, "This is the Yamaguchi-gumi headquarters, not a place you can come and go as you please."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the conference room instantly became tense.

The five executives stood up at the same time, all reaching for their waists.

The guards outside the door also pushed the door open and entered, and the eight of them surrounded Xu Yun.

Seeing this, Xu Yun was not nervous at all; instead, he laughed even more happily.

"Team Leader Shinoda, are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, this is for the benefit of the Yamaguchi-gumi."

Shinoda Kenichi stood up and said coldly, "Please come with us. We will arrange a comfortable room for you."

Xu Yun sighed and shook his head.

"I originally wanted to talk things out, but since you insist on resorting to violence..."

He slowly stood up and stretched his wrists.

"Then don't blame me for being rude."

The next second, Xu Yun moved!

His speed was beyond everyone's imagination!
Before the guard closest to him could react, Xu Yun delivered a chop to the neck, and he collapsed limply.

The moment the other guard drew his gun, Xu Yun snatched it from his hand and struck him on the temple with the butt of the gun.

"boom!"

The guard fell to the ground immediately.

"Stop him!" Yamamoto roared.

The remaining six guards simultaneously drew their guns.

But Xu Yun was faster!

He moved through the conference room like a ghost, each move precise and ruthless.

Elbow strike, knee strike, hand chop...

There were no unnecessary movements; every strike went straight for the vital points.

In just ten seconds, all eight guards fell to the ground, incapacitated.

The five senior executives were stunned.

They've seen people who can fight, but they've never seen anyone who can fight like this!
This is simply inhuman speed!

Shinoda Kenichi's expression finally changed.

He suddenly pulled a pistol from the drawer, pointed it at Xu Yun, and threatened, "Don't move!"

Xu Yun stopped what he was doing.

He turned to look at the dark muzzle of the gun and asked with a smile, "Team Leader Shinoda, do you think a gun can stop me?"

"You can give it a try," Shinoda Kenichi said coldly.

At this moment, the five high-ranking officers also drew their guns, and all five guns were pointed at Xu Yun at the same time.

But just then——

"Buzzing..."

Kenichi Shinoda's phone suddenly started vibrating wildly.

He frowned, took out his phone with his left hand, and glanced at the screen.

It's an unknown number.

He hesitated for a moment, but still pressed the answer button.

"Hey?"

A frantic voice came from the other end of the phone: "Team leader! Something terrible has happened! A lot of people have arrived downstairs!"
There were members of the Chinese community, and also a group of foreigners who looked like mercenaries! They surrounded the building!

"What?!" Shinoda Kenichi's expression changed drastically.

Almost simultaneously, the landline in the conference room rang.

Yamamoto answered the phone, listened for a couple of sentences, and his face turned deathly pale.

"Team leader...the Metropolitan Police Department is here...the head of the Criminal Investigation Department is leading the team..."

Another senior executive's phone also rang.

"Team leader, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs called and said that a car from the Chinese Embassy is on its way..."

"Team leader, President Matsumoto of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries also called, asking if we arrested a Chinese person..."

"Team leader, SoftBank's CEO Son is also..."

For a moment, the phone rang incessantly in the conference room.

Every phone call brought worse news.

Shinoda Kenichi looked at Xu Yun, his hand holding the phone trembling slightly, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

"Team Leader Shinoda."

Xu Yun smiled at him and asked, "Do you still think you can keep me here?"

"..."

Shinoda Kenichi opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

The gun in his hand had been lowered at some point.

Because he knew that the gun was no longer of any use.

Those people outside won't give him a chance to fire.

Even if he shot and killed Xu Yun, the Yamaguchi-gumi would be wiped out in the ensuing retaliation.

This Chinese man is untouchable.

"Mr. Xu..."

Shinoda Kenichi's voice was a little hoarse as he explained, "We really didn't do this."

"I know."

Xu Yun nodded and smiled, "But now everyone thinks you did it. What do you suggest we do?"

"..."

Kenichi Shinoda remained silent.

He understood what Xu Yun meant.

The only solution now is for the Yamaguchi-gumi to "find" Xu Yun and then "safely" hand him over.

And the person in question took the initiative to help them clarify the misunderstanding.

Only in this way can the anger of all parties be quelled.

"Team leader!"

Yamamoto said urgently, "We can't..."

"Shut up!" Shinoda Kenichi interrupted him sharply.

He took a deep breath, looked at Xu Yun, and slowly said, "Mr. Xu, I will personally escort you downstairs and explain to everyone that this is a misunderstanding."

We will find the real kidnappers and give you an explanation.

At the same time, we will compensate you for your losses over the past few days.

"compensation?"

Xu Yun raised an eyebrow and asked in return, "How will you compensate me?"

"Ten billion yen."

Kenichi Shinoda said, "Cash, I can give it to you now."

Xu Yun smiled.

He walked to the window and looked down at the growing crowd below.

Police cars, black minivans, and even several cars with diplomatic license plates were present.

"Team Leader Shinoda, do you think I need 10 billion yen?"

Kenichi Shinoda's heart sank.

"Then... what does Mr. Xu want?"

Xu Yun turned around, looked at Shinoda Kenichi, and slowly said, "I want 30% of the profits from all the Yamaguchi-gumi's casinos and money shops in Tokyo for the next five years."

"What?!" the five executives exclaimed in unison.

30% profit!

That's at least tens of billions of yen!
"impossible!"

Yamamoto roared, "This is robbery!"

"robbery?"

Xu Yun laughed and said, "You kidnapped me, causing me to be imprisoned for so long and suffer severe mental trauma. Is this amount of compensation excessive?"

"We didn't kidnap you!"

"But everyone thinks you did it."

Xu Yun spread his hands, saying helplessly, "Either you take the blame and pay me back, or you go and explain to those people outside and see if they believe you."

Kenichi Shinoda's expression kept changing.

He knew that Xu Yun was trying to extort him.

But he had no choice.

It's either lose money or face an attack from all sides.

It's obvious which cost is greater.

"it is good……"

Shinoda Kenichi forced out the word through gritted teeth, saying, "I promise you."

"Team leader!" The higher-ups were alarmed.

"I said, I agree!"

Kenichi Shinoda roared, "Shut the hell up! If you have any other good solutions, just say them now!"

"..." Everyone.

Looking at everyone's expressions in the conference room, Xu Yun laughed even more heartily.

This money is so easy to make, even faster than the system!
but……

Presumably, this was another instance of someone extorting money from the Yamaguchi-gumi in Tokyo, Japan.

Hahaha... (End of this chapter)
