"As for the rest... let him get to know the family better."

The source of childishness is the way of the heart.

Prestige is not built in a day. Only by paving the way with solid achievements and absolute strength can one gain the respect of all the family's members.

Now that everyone supports Uesugi Kotsu's decision, Genjiro himself can't refuse.

After a few seconds of contemplation, he spoke:

"Thank you all for your support, but... the most urgent task at hand is to quell the chaos in various parts of Tokyo."

"Although the situation within Genji Heavy Industries has been brought under control, there are still four escaped members of the Dead Servants and the Oni Clan scattered throughout Tokyo. If they are not eliminated in time, they will definitely cause great trouble."

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

Tachibana Masamune remained kneeling on the ground, his eyes filled with resentment and venom.

Now no one takes him seriously anymore. The immense power he once possessed has been completely annihilated, and the prestige he painstakingly cultivated to become the patriarch has been utterly shattered.

What awaits him is a dark and hopeless prison.

My...planning...

My long-cherished wish...

Herzog was filled with resentment.

He could feel the overwhelming hostility from Nan Yun Yu Yue towards him; if it weren't for Yuan Zhi Sheng's presence, he would probably have been torn to pieces long ago.

He never understood why this young boy could always precisely counter his every plan.

Ever since Nanon Ugetsu posted anonymously on the Hunter website, she hasn't had a single good day.

First, the meeting plan between the Genji brothers was completely disrupted, and then even Kazama Ruri was captured by him.

Kazama Ruri's capture marked the beginning of his own disarray.

It was from that time on that he felt the "stage" he had built was gradually slipping out of his control.

Herzog felt that this boy of unknown origin also harbored enormous secrets, perhaps even more than his own.

If he could do it all over again, he might choose a more prudent approach and proceed gradually, rather than ruining his plans due to excessive haste.

"I'll personally lock him up in jail in a bit."

Genjiro glanced at Tachibana Masamune and sighed.

His outlook on life and the world is somewhat shattered at this moment.

From the moment he met Tachibana Masamune to his return to the Heraki family, Tachibana Masamune, as the patriarch, taught him "loyalty and righteousness," his words filled with "deep concern" for the family.

Genjiro was also always moved by Tachibana Masamune's "dedication" to his family.

He did not crave power, nor did he aspire to become the most powerful person in Tokyo. However, under the influence of Tachibana Masamune, he chose to stay with the Hebi-hachi family and do his best to complete his mission.

Only now does he realize that all those words he spoke in the past were empty promises, and that he himself was the only one who truly believed them.

Beside Tachibana Masamune were three 'emperors' with imperial blood flowing through their veins: Uesugi Koshi, Genjiro, and Nagumo Ugetsu. He had no chance of escaping from here.

After Uesugi Koshi's resolution was passed, Genji immediately began to work on restoring the family's various affairs.

Fortunately, he was very familiar with handling family affairs, and with the cooperation of the other heads of the five outer families, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

As dawn broke outside the window, the entire Genji Heavy Industries gradually began to operate again.

Without Tachibana Masamune's interference, Princess Kaguya regained all her authority, and the Snake Clan's intricate web of power was fully activated once again.

Through a network of surveillance cameras throughout Tokyo, the agents of the Enforcement Bureau tracked down every 'demon' still on the run.

Now, few members of the Demon Clan have managed to escape Tokyo. Even if some manage to break through the blockade and return to Osaka, the Snake Clan will surely launch an unprecedented counterattack to annihilate this adversary they have fought against for hundreds of years.

After all, all the important high-ranking members of the Ghost Clan had been wiped out, and they were now completely disorganized and had no chance of resisting.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the entire family!

Tachibana Masamune, on the other hand, was imprisoned in an underground prison similar to that of Kazama Ruri.

It's impossible for a family of criminals of this caliber to be imprisoned in the same cell.

Although Tachibana Masamune did not have 'royal blood' flowing through his veins, the security was just as tight.

Unless he can use his Word of Power to flatten the entire Genji Heavy Industries, there is absolutely no way he can escape from here.

the other side,

Genji remained at Genji Heavy Industries.

Now he is nominally the head of the Snake Clan, and there are many things he needs to handle and explain.

He delegated some trivial tasks to his trusted subordinates, while the more important ones were handled by Crow and Yaksha.

now,

Genjiro is in Kaguya's computer room, together with Inuyama He, telling Nagumo Ugetsu and Uesugi Kotsu about their family matters.

At the beginning, the heads of the five outer families also came to this floor.

After everyone confirmed the permissions, Tachibana Masamune's patriarchal authority was officially revoked and handed over to Genjiro.

The authority of the Director of the Executive Bureau is held by Nan Yun Yuyue.

The heads of the other five families had other matters to attend to, and after reporting and exchanging information with the emperors, they all took their leave.

Only Inuyama Kasa, who had a close personal relationship with Uesugi Koshi, remains on this floor.

Nangumo Ugetsu had not known much about the family affairs before, and Uesugi Kotsu had been away from the Snake Clan for a long time, so there were many things he did not know.

Fortunately, with former Executive Director Genjiro and current Inuyama family head He by their side, they were able to fill in some family history that neither of them had ever known.

"……That's it."

Towards the end, Genji would always sigh from time to time.

"I never imagined that my family would fall to this state."

Inuyama Kazuya recounted some events that occurred after he stepped down as head of the Japanese branch, but he only supplemented the main points, focusing primarily on Genjiro's experiences.

"Ah He, you've really worked hard all these years."

Uesugi patted him on the shoulder.

Inuyama He was immediately moved, and all the hardships of the past few years seemed to vanish in an instant.

The Inuyama family was originally the weakest family, and it was only after he became the head of the family that it began to recover.

Previously, the Inuyama family had been in a lukewarm state, but from now on, their strength will surely rise rapidly.

After a while, someone suddenly reported from the doorway.

Having received permission, the Yaksha cautiously stepped through the gate and respectfully said:

"Your Excellencies, Director Nagumo, Erii has completed her treatment and has now regained consciousness."

Although Tachibana Masamune's position as head of the family has been officially replaced, due to the current special situation, he has not yet had time to issue an announcement to all family members.

The reason why Yaksha and Crow knew first was mainly because they were retainers of the Minamoto clan and had always stayed within the Minamoto heavy industry, which allowed them to be one step ahead.

Erii is awake!

A hint of surprise flashed in Genji's eyes.

Uesugi Kotsuya was also somewhat looking forward to it.

According to Nangumo Ugetsu, Uesugi Erii is his daughter, whom he has never met before.

The group temporarily put aside their work and followed Yasha to the mezzanine where Uesugi Erii lived.

Junda Mana and Misaki Hatsune were still there. When they saw the group of people coming, they bowed and greeted them.

Misaki Misaki looked at Nagumo Ugetsu with a slightly shy and evasive gaze, but she took a deep breath and managed to calm herself down a bit.

now,

Erii was still lying in bed, looking somewhat weak, but the abnormal bluish veins under her fair skin had all subsided, and she had regained the healthy appearance of a young girl.

This is...my daughter?

Uesugi stood there, stunned, not far away.

An elderly man, who had been living alone for countless years, suddenly learned, as he was nearing the end of his life, that he actually had both a son and a daughter.

Only he himself could truly understand the great joy and sorrow he experienced.

“Thanks to Mr. Nagumo’s Word of Power, Erii would have already gone out of control and gone berserk,” Genji said.

"You could say that he was the one who saved Erii's life."

"It was nothing," Nan Yun Yuyue said.

suddenly,

The notification sounded in my mind again:

[You stopped 'Tsukuyomi's' runaway through discipline, free skill point +1]

[Progress towards unlocking 'The Burial Ground of Gods' (5/6)]

!!!

Nan Yun Yuyue was startled, but it was mostly expected.

"I said I got a skill point for preventing Mutsu from losing control before, but why didn't I get one for preventing Erii from losing control?"

"It turns out that Erii hadn't woken up yet."

"As soon as I woke up from my unconscious state, I also received the reward for preventing Erii from losing control."

He gained another free skill point, and also increased the progress of unlocking the Burial Grounds by one level, which gave him a pleasant surprise.

"Now that I've become the head of the Executive Bureau of the Snake Clan, I have more power than before, so I don't have to fight alone anymore."

"In that case, when the Burial Ground of Gods is truly opened, I will be more confident in facing it head-on."

Nan Yun Yu Yue Xin Dao.

[Progress towards unlocking 'The Burial Ground of Gods' (5/6)]

[Current Word of Power: 1]

【'Precepts'】

[Forbidden Zone: LV4] [Heart Abyss: LV3] [Candlelight: LV4]

[Rebirth: Not yet available]

[Currently available skill points: 1]

However, Nan Yun Yu Yue did not consider how to allocate skill points first.

Because at this very moment,

Beside him,

Uesugi's hands trembled even more violently.

This patriarch, who once commanded hundreds of thousands of thugs in Japan, was the only 'emperor' of that era.

Suddenly, a few tears, which I hadn't seen in a long time, rolled down my cheeks.

Chapter 245 Ancient Dragon Embryo, Shocked Shiina Tatsuki

To cry tears of joy is an experience that is extremely rare in life.

Japan is a country that values ​​the pathos of mono no aware (the pathos of things), and some even say that the number of happy things in one's life is predetermined, and once one is over, there is one less in life.

Therefore, people throughout the country have always been accustomed to suppressing their emotions, and only on very rare occasions will they fully reveal their true feelings. Even slightly excited emotions are extremely rare in any situation.

But after today's dramatic highs and lows, Uesugi Koshi was still unable to control himself and even involuntarily shed tears of emotion.

so similar……

so similar……

With just one glance, he was absolutely certain that Uesugi Erii must be his daughter.

Because Erii's expression was exactly the same as his mother's.
