death of hope

Chapter 895: Wild Growth (309) Isolated and helpless

In the quiet night sky, the stars are faintly visible, and the dawn of the new Sapporo is coming.
This should have been a vibrant and hopeful moment, but the Kondo family, an Oriental samurai aristocracy with a thousand-year history, is about to come to an end.

The Sanwang Society used every possible means and attacked fiercely throughout the night, regardless of the cost, and finally came to the moment of reaping the rewards.
The layers of barricade defenses were completely broken through, and with the complete loss of the outer positions, the remnants of the Kyokushin group retreated into their last stronghold.

This is a 1:1 replica of an ancient building from the shogunate period.
The base is built of solid granite, the superstructure is made of corrosion-resistant thousand-year-old cypress wood, and the various types of nanmu decorations are extremely luxurious.

The transportation, material, design and labor costs are all astronomical. Even in New Sapporo, where wealthy people are everywhere, only the nouveau riche Kondo family who made a fortune from the sale of hallucinogens can afford such a luxurious mansion.

This sturdy and magnificent mansion naturally became the headquarters of the Kyokushin Group.

When the defeat was overwhelming, it naturally became a fortress for the final moment.

The top floor of the castle-style mansion is the castle tower, which overlooks Matsui Street. It is the highest and most representative part of the Oriental castle. It has observation and command functions and is a symbol of the power of the Oriental aristocratic lords in the feudal era.

On the "Shogun's seat" in the castle tower, the Kyokushin group's boss, Kondo Isao, the head of the Kondo family, was wearing a magnificent brocade kimono embroidered with black clouds and white cranes.
The old man was leaning on a mahogany cane. He had white hair and beard and looked very imposing. He did not look depressed or frustrated at all due to the impending defeat.

Behind Kondo Isao are displayed the general armor, halberds, muskets and samurai swords that the ancestors of the Kondo family wore on the battlefield.

After staying up all night, even the young people could not hide their fatigue, but Kondo Isao, who was only in his 80s, was still energetic.

The old man shouted orders, stood proudly in the castle tower and personally supervised the battle to boost morale;
"Everyone, don't panic! As long as the Tri-Union Gang attacks, everything will be fine!"

A leader said tremblingly: "Uh... Boss, the Tri-Union Gang has declared neutrality. Their boss said that they have torn up the alliance agreement they signed with us..."

"What?! Is there such a thing?!"

Kondo Isao was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, cursing: "Zhao Gangsheng is so bold! How dare he betray me! The Sanlian Gang can't be trusted, what about the other gangs?!"

"Boss... the letter we sent out asking for help didn't get any response. In addition to the Sanlian Gang, the Dongxing Gang, the Hongxing Society, the Osaka Group, the Yoshikawa Group... all declared neutrality... I guess they saw that we were going against the odds and chose to sit on the sidelines and watch."

Kondo Isao took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and tried his best to maintain a calm image:
"These traitors... I've always given them a lot of benefits...

On the bright side, at least... they are still maintaining neutrality and not standing on the side of the Sanwang Society, so it's not too bad..."

"Boss, the commandos of the Sanwangkai have surrounded the castle..." "What are you afraid of? Don't panic. My nephew will definitely come to help. Koichi has been a righteous man since he was young. He will definitely not betray me!
Does anyone have any news about Koichi? Is he on his way? Or has he already arrived? Hmm?! "

·
The Kyokushin group leaders below the stage were all dusty and depressed, and no one wanted to answer this unpleasant question.

Seeing that the old man was about to lose his temper and curse, someone timidly said:

"Boss, your good nephew, Mr. Kondo Koichi, did not betray us, but he can't send reinforcements...

Because he and his Otomo group are already in a difficult situation... and he just sent us a message asking for help..."

"What?! How is this possible!" Kondo Isao had an expression of disbelief on his face:

"The main forces of the Sanno-kai are all fighting us in Matsui Street. The Otomo group was at most attacked and harassed. How could it be to the point where they can't even protect themselves?!"

"Uh... the ones who attacked the Otomo group weren't the Sannokai, but the allies that Yamagami Tetsuya tricked into joining..."

"Who?! Which gang?!"

"There are more than one. There are many small gangs. The rappers from the Crips, the cannibalistic lunatics from the Haitian Voodoo Gang, the betel nut sellers from the Malay Gang, and the bearded bikers riding Harley motorcycles..."

"Assholes! How dare those damn rats do this!"

Knowing that his nephew's Otomo group could not come to his aid, which was his last hope, Kondo Isao could no longer hold back, broke down, slammed his cane on the floor and cursed:

"Those small gangs are following behind the Sanwang Society and taking advantage of the situation to seize our territory. They are really like a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog! If we had known this, we should have wiped out these bastards long ago!"

As he was cursing, Kondo Isao started to cough violently. A concubine wearing a kimono and carrying a "small pillow" hurriedly brought warm water and a medicine bottle, but was kicked away by the old man:

"Get lost, bitch! Don't bother me anymore!"

Seeing the gang leader's emotional breakdown, the Kyokushin group leaders gathered in twos and threes and whispered to each other.

Several of them have been secretly planning their own escape routes and are planning to betray the gang.
