Chapter 267: Arasaka Yorinobu, the Lone Savior

"Not always."

Michiko Arasaka retorted, "That's Saburo Arasaka. Who can guess what he's thinking? Who can see through his plan?"
In fact, when Michiko Arasaka heard Ke Ling talk about "RELIC 2.0" for the first time, she was extremely shocked. She was shocked that this old man Saburo Arasaka was so cruel that he would rather create such a "resurrection" than let go and hand over power to their next generation.

Now that Arasaka Yorinobu has cut off the source of the trouble and directly stolen the "RELIC 2.0" prototype chip, the entire plan is basically completely exposed. It may be made public by Arasaka Yorinobu and sold to other companies at any time. Can Saburo Arasaka really sit still?
Even though most of its body was already in the coffin, that old immortal would never sit there and wait to die.

"So what if I come in person? I won't back down."

Arasaka Yorinobu had a stern face, and it was obvious that he was not in a very good mood. To him, Arasaka Saburo had completely become his enemy, because that old immortal thing did not regard him as a human being at all, but just as a resurrected body.

To be honest, although he has been rebelling against Arasaka, Arasaka Yorinobu has never considered killing Arasaka Saburo. After all, he is his father. Arasaka Yorinobu thinks he still has a bottom line. He would rather wait for Arasaka Saburo to die than plot to kill him.

Of course, the main reason was that Saburo Arasaka had a strong grasp of the situation and was very cautious. After all, he was a shrewd man who had lived for more than 150 years. Unless he did it on purpose, no one could find an opportunity.

Come to think of it, the people and forces that want to kill Saburo Arasaka can definitely circle the earth, but no one has succeeded in the past hundred years.

"Have you figured out what to do?"

Michiko Arasaka sat on the sofa and looked at the poor uncle.

Anyone would be skeptical about the sudden return of this once rebellious uncle. Although "being ignorant when young" could indeed be an explanation for his previous behavior, given Saburo Arasaka's personality, there was no reason for him to believe it.

You know, Saburo Arasaka directly announced that he had severed the father-son relationship with Arasaka Yorinobu, and the old man showed no mercy.

However, ironically, at the funeral of her father Arasaka Kei, Arasaka Yorinobu and Arasaka Saburo reached a reconciliation. When this happened, everyone was surprised at Arasaka Saburo's magnanimity. The always extremely stubborn Arasaka boss actually gave in this time and accepted his prodigal younger son.

There are many different opinions about the reason. Some people speculate that it was because of the death of the eldest son, Arasaka Kei, that forced Arasaka Saburo to accept the younger son. Others say that Arasaka Hanako tried her best to ease the relationship. It was all thanks to this eldest lady who always attached great importance to family relationships.

In the end, no one expected that Saburo Arasaka was deliberately cooperating with Yorinobu Arasaka to act out this drama of the prodigal son. He was waiting for Yorinobu Arasaka at "RELIC 2.0".

Arasaka Yorinobu is waiting for Arasaka Saburo to die and then take over Arasaka, while Arasaka Saburo is also waiting for "RELIC 2.0" and then take over Arasaka Yorinobu's body. This father and son are really a perfect match!

Michiko Arasaka laughed secretly in her heart. She thought that after knowing all this, Arasaka Yorinobu must be very angry and ashamed. He would feel like a joke and was being played around by Saburo Arasaka.

Although Saburo Arasaka is her grandfather and Yorinobu Arasaka is her uncle, Michiko Arasaka has no good feelings towards them and no family affection between them. She can just watch the fun with a mentality of watching the fun.

Of course, she also has her own ideas. She hopes that Saburo Arasaka and Yorinobu Arasaka can fight, and then drag Hanako Arasaka into it. The more intense the fight, the better, so that she can fish in troubled waters.

If it was a normal inheritance, there would be absolutely no place for Michiko Arasaka in the future of Arasaka. Both Arasaka Yorinobu and Arasaka Hanako had much more advantages than her, and might not even give her any leftovers.

There was no way. Not only had she just returned to Arasaka not long ago, but the power of the forces she represented and her supporters was also very weak.

The two siblings, one radical and the other conservative, are more powerful and influential than her, the "dove". After all, her faction is called liberals if you put it nicely, but a bunch of scumbags who are not presentable if you put it bluntly.

In the Arasaka Group, there are three well-known succession factions, namely the "Pheasant Faction" led by Arasaka Hanako, the "Hawk Faction" led by Arasaka Yorinobu, and the "Dove Faction" led by Arasaka Michiko.

The "Pheasant School" is represented by the traditional "Green Pheasant", a bird with a long cultural and symbolic significance in Japan. The last living specimens of Green Pheasants in the world live in the Arasaka Hanako Private Animal Sanctuary on Shikoku Island.

The "Pheasant faction" naturally represents the "conservatives". It is centered on Hanako Arasaka and is mainly composed of conservative technical experts. They hope to stick to the development path arranged by Saburo Arasaka himself and maintain the old order and internal stability of the company. This is also the hope of Hanako Arasaka, who has always pursued family unity and stability, and it is also the reason why she is supported.

The symbolic meaning of the "hawks" is obvious. They usually prefer direct and tough solutions and are mainly supported by the more radical elites of the Arasaka Group. Arasaka Yorinobu relied on his personal charm to unite a large number of supporters, but the ideas he proposed were innovative and controversial at the same time, so they were resisted by conservatives.

Although Arasaka Yorinobu and Arasaka Hanako have a good relationship, the "Pheasant Faction" and the "Hawk Faction" are like water and fire and have completely different positions.

But this did not prevent the two factions of Arasaka and others from resisting the "doves" represented by Michiko Arasaka, because the former two represented the interests of Arasaka themselves, but they had serious differences with each other. Michiko Arasaka, on the other hand, brought in a new force and tried to influence the situation of Arasaka with external forces.

Most of those who approach Michiko Arasaka are not the company's vested interests, but "liberals" who hope to subvert the existing structure of Arasaka. To put it bluntly, they are people who are not worthy of sitting at the table for dinner.

Therefore, the "doves" naturally have little influence within Arasaka, but externally, relying on Michiko Arasaka's personal charm, they have received considerable support from upper-class people. Moreover, Michiko Arasaka herself has her own independent company, which are all trying to steal her job, so naturally they will not get the support of the "true Arasaka plaster flag".

Therefore, in terms of normal inheritance, Michiko Arasaka had no hope, and basically no one was optimistic about her. When talking about the successor of Saburo Arasaka, everyone would only mention Yorinobu Arasaka and Hanako Arasaka.

As for the next generation of heirs, there is no place for Michiko Arasaka, because she is only thirteen years younger than Arasaka Yorinobu and nine years younger than Arasaka Hanako. When the winner of these two retires, it will not be her turn. Her existence is so embarrassing.

Therefore, the current chaos in Arasaka is Michiko Arasaka's only chance, and there is no reason for her not to look forward to it.

"I have contacted many companies, and they are all very interested in this thing. I will never allow Saburo Arasaka to rule the world with this RELIC chip. Even if what I am doing now may not bring good results."

Arasaka Yorinobu has obviously made a decision. This man is actually very similar to Arasaka Saburo in one respect, that is, he is stubborn by nature. To put it nicely, he is firm in his beliefs and unwavering in his determination. They are both the kind of people who can give up everything for the beliefs in their hearts.

This is how Saburo Arasaka researched "RELIC 2.0" because he just wanted to rule Arasaka forever and even rule the world.

Arasaka Yorinobu wants to spread "RELIC 2.0" because he wants to oppose the group and Arasaka. Even if the spread of "RELIC 2.0" may lead to many bad consequences, in his opinion, it is better than Arasaka using this thing to control the world.

Ke Ling, who was listening to the conversation between the two people in the room, couldn't help but be shocked. This was also the main reason why he never thought of controlling the father and son, because they were simply uncontrollable.

A second-generation man who just graduated from college at the age of 21 and resolutely ran away from home after learning the true face of his family, and began to embark on the road of anti-company and anti-Arasaka. He is a power-mad man who started from scratch to control Arasaka and fought for hegemony for a hundred years.

They are all possessed by demons in their bones. It is easier to kill them than to control them. For some people, it is really impossible to control life and death. A life bound by constraints is far worse than a free death.

"Who?!"

Ke Ling's voice naturally attracted the attention of several people in the room. After all, Arasaka Yorinobu had been on the streets before and was not a powerless young man, so he was not nervous.

As for Arasaka Michiko, she was even less nervous because she knew it was Ke Ling.

"Arasaka Yorinobu, you are indeed a firm believer in anti-corporate pioneers, but sometimes, you do seem a bit extreme."

The shadow shuttled across the ground and came in front of Arasaka Yorinobu and Arasaka Michiko. Ke Ling emerged from it and sat leisurely on the sofa. He had a complicated opinion of Arasaka Yorinobu.

One thing that cannot be denied is that Arasaka Yorinobu is indeed an anti-corporate warrior who betrayed the ruling class and the exploiting class. He is extremely firm in his beliefs and would do anything to smash the rule of the company. He is a purer and more respectable fighter than Johnny Silverhand. After all, the two have completely different backgrounds and experiences, and it is even more rare and valuable for Arasaka Yorinobu to achieve these.

And precisely because of their different backgrounds, if Arasaka Yorinobu goes crazy, he would be much more terrifying than Johnny Silverhand.

No matter how crazy Johnny Silverhand was, his personal strength and power were there. If it weren't for fate, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble at all. He might even be worse than David Martinez. After all, David at least had a fight with Adam Hammer, but poor Johnny was defeated directly.

And what about Arasaka Yorinobu? Adam Hammer was his dog, working for him. Once Arasaka Saburo died, as long as he could keep Arasaka Hanako stable, the whole Arasaka would be his toss. He could easily start a world war involving all the companies.

In fact, after dealing with Arasaka Hanako, Arasaka Yorinobu would indeed do so, because he believed that this was the only way to weaken the company's rule, and there was no other way.

This approach will definitely result in extremely heavy casualties, and the entire world will be dragged into it, which will be more terrifying than any previous war.

But Ke Ling did not deny that for this distorted world, perhaps what Arasaka Yorinobu chose was indeed the only way.

Without destroying the existing order, the world will never get better, and it is impossible for it to get better. The world is already in a state of deterioration, and it would be simpler to start all over again.

However, that was when he could only rely on Arasaka Yorinobu. Now that he has Ke Ling, he feels that he does not need to be so radical.

"who are you?"

Arata Yorimoto looked at Ke Ling with a serious expression, obviously surprised by the way Ke Ling appeared. What kind of new technology is this?

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is why you are against the company and Arasaka. Do you remember? Arasaka Yorinobu."

Ke Ling sat on the sofa and did not answer the question, but asked another question.

"."

Arasaka Yoshinori frowned and glanced at his niece Arasaka Michiko. He was very sensitive to the change in Michiko's expression. He was surprised because Michiko Arasaka obviously knew the strange stranger who suddenly broke in.

"Do you know?"

Arasaka Yorinobu asked Arasaka Michiko. He was not only surprised that the two seemed to know each other, but he was even more surprised that Arasaka Michiko seemed to be in a subordinate position in the relationship. Otherwise, how could she allow this man to do whatever he wanted?
"Yes, the news I told you was told to me by Lord Devil, and Lord Devil arranged for me to do this."

Arasaka Michiko admitted it straightforwardly without any hesitation, which made Arasaka Yorinobu dumbfounded and he didn't know how to react for a moment.

"Look, I've shown my sincerity to you. You won't even be unwilling to answer my question, right? It's not a private matter."

Ke Ling urged Arasaka Yorinobu with narrowed eyes and smiled. His words made Arasaka Yorinobu purse his lips, and it seemed that he was somewhat persuaded.

"I am against Arasaka because Arasaka is of no benefit to mankind. Arasaka only uses dark and dirty means such as war and assassination to achieve monopoly in various fields and promote their militarism. They don't care about the development of science and technology or the welfare of the people."

Arasaka Yorinobu spoke up, he remained true to his original intention, was extremely firm in his beliefs, and had nothing to hide from others.

"It's not just Arasaka, all the big companies are the same. Big companies have a monopoly, and small companies have no room to develop. Humans have been transformed into tools with growing brains. They don't have any personal rights. They are just consumables and are swallowed up by the bottomless pit of the company."

Arasaka Yorinobu became more and more excited as he spoke. In fact, he felt uncomfortable holding back these words. Although he had a group of followers within Arasaka, he obviously could not say these words out loud. After all, those people were also supporters of Arasaka and did not know his true thoughts. If they knew, no one would support him.

In this world, he is like a lonely person going against the flow. The whole world is sliding into the abyss, and he is the only one holding it up. There are very few people who can work with him.
