I suddenly became a yakuza boss.

Everyone around saw his face and hurriedly moved aside in alarm.

He had sharp eyes, a fierce face, and a tall stature. He walked with an unusual gait, much like a modern-day Lu Bu, causing quite a stir at Qiancang Station.

"We've finally arrived at Qiancang Street."

The 30-year-old bronze-skinned man stood outside the station, a slight smile on his face, thinking to himself.

Ryuji Gota, the second chairman of the Goryūkai, a direct branch of the Omi Alliance, and one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Omi-kai.

He stood in the wind, gazing at the legendary Qiancang Street.

It seems that the yakuza movement in Chiba is gaining momentum recently, causing quite a stir in the Kanto and Kansai regions.

However, he did not come here for the rumored territory of the "War Demon" and the Ashikawa Group.

No one could understand the proudest pursuit in his heart, despite being a top figure in the underworld.

Ryuji Goda, dressed in a flowing suit, smiled coldly, thinking, "Finally found you... Dragon of Dojima."

The most powerful symbol of martial arts and yakuza is the identity of a "dragon." Yakuza has always had the saying of "the twin dragons of yakuza" to highlight the status of the two strongest dragons in the yakuza world of northern Japan. However, the dragon of Dojima, Kiryu Kazuma, retired at the height of his fame many years ago. Now, one dragon has fallen, and only the "dragon of Kansai" remains in the world.

Ryuji Goda has always believed that only one person can be worthy of the title of Legendary Dragon. For this reason, he has been hunting down Kazuma Kiryu for years.

Finally, not long after the Kansai Alliance was dismantled by the Majima Group, the Omi Alliance discovered the possible hiding place of Kiryu Kazuma.

Therefore, he personally went to the Chikura area to search for the whereabouts of the Dragon of Dojima.

However, his aura was so strong that as soon as he appeared at the station, people around him kept their distance, and no one even asked him for directions.

As if by coincidence, Ryuji Gota, who didn't know how to distinguish the boundaries of Senkura Street, eventually found a girl who hadn't escaped from him.

"Excuse me, miss, may I bother you for a moment?"

Ryuji Gouda remained relatively calm and asked the question.

As a result, the young woman with long, light blonde hair turned her head and looked at him.

The fashionable and mature girl, who looked to be around the age of a college student, showed a slight look of surprise, as if she was a little afraid of him, but the level of her fear was rather mild.

"..."

Ryuji Goda was taken aback; it was quite rare for him to see a girl who wasn't frightened by him.

"What do you want?" Miura Yumiko asked, slightly wary.

The middle-aged man, who appeared like a wild beast in front of the girl, said, "I'm a tourist from Kansai. I'm familiar with the area. Could you tell me if there's a man named Kiryu Kazuma among the residents around this street?"

"...I don't know him, I just arrived here too."

After a moment of silence, Miura Yumiko replied rather bluntly.

"...Could you tell me how to get to Qiancang Street?"

Ryuji Goda was silent for a moment, then asked.

"Doesn't this person know how to use navigation?"

Yumiko Miura wondered to herself.

She still had to wait for her friend for ten minutes, but Qiancang Street was not far from the station. After a moment of silence, she said, "There's really no other way. It's not very far, but it involves crossing two traffic lights. I don't know how to explain it properly, but I'll take you there a little bit."

"..."

Ryuji Goda was silent for a moment before saying, "Thank you for your help."

Driven by a thirst for status and fame, and ruthless in his pursuit of power, Yakuza chairman Ryuji Goda plans to massacre everyone in Chiba Prefecture in order to find Kazuma Kiryu. However, on his first step into Chiba, he encounters, much like any other Yakuza boss, a somewhat unusual high school girl...

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~

In the afternoon.

Another serious incident has occurred in Qiancang Street.

In the three hours of the morning, a total of eleven shops in Qiancang Street were harassed by unidentified yakuza members. Without any permission, they broke into the shops to search for people. After physical altercations, two bars were damaged, five employees of a special business shop were injured, and business was in complete disarray.

Li Xuan personally led a team to inspect the extent of the damage to the protected shops.

"What's going on, Tamura?"

Li Xuan inspected the extent of the damage at the two restaurants and asked his assistant.

"Boss, this happened so suddenly, we didn't have time to react. We only heard that a man suddenly broke into one shop after another this morning, seemingly looking for someone. If anyone tried to stop him, his property was smashed. However, only the tables in the first two shops were smashed. The last shop, because of the fierce resistance, had six people seriously injured. I will find out who smashed our territory. Boss, just leave it to me, I will take full responsibility."

Tamura bowed and explained, his face showing remorse.

"...Could it be that someone from another gang is looking for enemies on my end?"

After listening to Tamura's description, Li Xuan pondered for a moment and thought to himself.

Japanese yakuza groups, which collect fees from traditional businesses, have an absolute obligation to prevent other gangs from infiltrating. If someone with malicious intent suddenly vandalizes a store, it is something they must take full responsibility for.

The culprits who vandalized the streets have not yet been identified, and the priority is to try to salvage the reputation of the Ashikawa Group.

"I understand the situation. I'm leaving this matter to you to investigate. If you can't find the answer, you can expect to be punished according to family rules."

Li Xuan said to Tian Cun with a dark expression.

"Yes!"

Tamura, pale-faced, nodded and called out.

The Ashikawa Group never uses finger-severing as punishment, but serious dereliction of duty can result in dismissal, salary deductions, or being handed over to a senior instructor for months of training in the mountains—sometimes even living like wild men. Only acts of betrayal result in being directly submerged in Tokyo Bay.

Tamura definitely didn't want to experience any of these punishments.

In cases of inadequate protection, Li Xuan's role is to reassure them and assist them in recovering their economic losses as much as possible.

"A Western restaurant...a Japanese restaurant...By the way, has the special shop where five employees and one owner were injured closed down? Which shop is this, and how serious is the situation?" Li Xuan asked as he walked out of the restaurant.

Tamura, recovering from his shock, explained to Li Xuan, "Oh, that family is called the Moonlit Man."

"Wait a minute, under the moon what?"

Li Xuan was taken aback and asked.

I always felt that this name was a bit dangerous.

“Man under the moon.” Tamura felt that his superior didn’t quite understand, so he continued to explain, “Boss, this place is a brothel, that is, a host club.”

Li Xuan had no idea that there were brothels on this street.

Moreover, it's not aimed at the mainstream audience, but rather at women.

What's even more terrifying is that this shop is an old establishment that has been operating in the Senkura area for forty years, and it's a key target for special care, paying 600 million yen a year.

Yakuza is a profession, and although it is known for violence and illegality, Japan is a country that transitioned directly from a feudal society to a capitalist society in less than two hundred years. The history of the Ashikawa samurai group has laid a deep-rooted local identity, and protecting their sphere of influence is truly protection, requiring them to be responsible to the end.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the team leader, "Old Man," called Li Xuan.

"Yes, it happened so fast this morning, I didn't have time to react at all."

Li Xuan answered the phone and reported the problem in a depressed mood.

"Dad, don't worry, I will take full responsibility. I will find out the other party's identity as soon as possible and definitely settle accounts with him."

Li Xuan copied Tamura's answer verbatim and vouched for it to the team leader.

—【No, it's not that serious. We can leave the investigation to our subordinates. There's a more important issue now.】

My father's tone on the other end of the phone was very gentle as he spoke.

What are you worried about?

Li Xuan asked in confusion.

—【This situation isn't surprising, but that brothel has been supporting me since I was young. For forty years, except for earthquakes and floods, it has never closed. Mr. Nakai has always complained to me about having to close for a month; I always feel really bad for him. Ah-gen, is there something I can ask you?】

Upon hearing this, Li Xuan's heart sank to the bottom.

"Father... is there anything you need to ask of me?"

Li Xuan asked, his face ashen.

—【Aren't you a civilian cadre? This month, could you please help manage that brothel?】

My father gave the instructions directly over the phone.

"Dad... I run a legitimate company; I can't possibly work in a brothel."

Li Xuan was under a lot of pressure and hurriedly declined.

—【It's just running a brothel. It's perfectly normal for yakuza to run brothels; it's all business, isn't it? As for compensation, Nakai will definitely give you a generous share.】

Li Xuan replied in a hoarse voice, "No, absolutely not..."

—【Then I'll leave it to you. This is one of your duties to protect Qiancang Street. Do your best, Ah Xuan.】

The old man just liked to talk to himself, as if Li Xuan had already completely agreed. The eighty-year-old group leader even thanked Li Xuan before hanging up the phone.

Li Xuan sat alone on a park bench at dusk, until finally, his hand fell limply to his side...

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~

In the afternoon, three high school girls had a lot of fun on the tram and went home together.

"You guys really went too far today, making me wait alone at the station for so long."

Yumiko Miura spoke to them with an annoyed expression.

Yui Yuigahama smiled awkwardly and apologized, saying, "Are you still angry?"

"Please, six hours have passed, and you're still saying this..."

Hina Ebina sighed deeply, couldn't help but shrug, and said...

"Those who are guilty should apologize properly."

Yumiko Miura put on one earphone and said without any politeness.

"But Qiancang Street truly lives up to its reputation; there are many excellent shops there."

Ebina Himina said with a smile.

"Yeah, we played for six hours straight and didn't even know how much time had passed."

Yui Yuigahama smiled faintly and said.

"It's still a bit of a pity, though."
