Tokyo Bubble Life

Further south from Kobe, at the tourist hotel Naruto in Naruto City, Tokushima Prefecture, the atmosphere was completely different from usual.

Since the morning, many black cars, big men in black suits, and tattooed Yakuzas have gathered in this hotel. The area around the hotel is surrounded by Yakuza personnel.

 In the entire area near the hotel, except for some invited media personnel, even ordinary pedestrians would be politely advised to leave. These gangsters seemed to be much more restrained.

At the corner of the street a little further away, you can still see heavily armed police stationed there, and even further away there are heavily armed mobile teams and riot police, and all the police in Naruto City are on alert.

Today is the naming ceremony of Takenaka Masahisa, the fourth generation leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi!

In addition to the immediate group leaders and younger brothers of the Yamaguchi-gumi, important witness guests include Inagawa Seijo from the Inagawa Association, Suwa Kenji from the Suwa family, and Hori Masao from the Sumiyoshi Federation.

 In addition, there are group leaders or backbone members of the Aizu Kotetsu Kai, Ohno Ichi, Imanishi Gumi, Matsuura Gumi, Mori Kai), Kudo Kai, Asahi Ryukai, Ono Ichi Yoshin Kai, etc.

It can be said that all the Yakuza groups in Neon came to participate in the naming ceremony of the Yamaguchi-gumi!

 This is simply a carnival of extremes!

No wonder the naming ceremony was not held in a densely populated big city like Kobe, but instead was held in a small tourist town with not many people.

If the naming ceremony takes place in Kobe, I believe that not only the Kobe Police Headquarters will be uneasy, but even the Neon Cabinet will pay attention!

 Besides, Naruto City and Naruto Hotel also have the meaning of being a blockbuster!

Hayato Nagayama came to participate this time with his son Kumahara Nagayama. At this Yakuza event, in front of all the leaders of Yakuza organizations with certain power, absolutely no Yakuza person would dare to do anything unwise!

Even Hiroshi Yamamoto, who is already about to split the Yamaguchi-gumi and has been at odds with Takenaka for a long time, does not dare to do anything at this time.

But the division should still be divided.

 The car stopped in front of the hotel.

“Father, your scarf.” Nagayama Kumahara handed the slender scarf embroidered with “Shimizu Family Leader Nagayama Hayato” to his father.

"Um"

Hayato Nagayama took it and put it around his neck. He waited for his younger brother to open the door before slowly walking down. The current Wakatou Nakayama Katsumasa of the Cheyamaguchi-gumi headquarters was receiving visitors at the door.

 “Leader Nagayama! Thank you for coming to participate in the fourth generation naming ceremony!”

Nakayama Katsumasa held Nagayama Hayato's hand and smiled and said, because now almost half of the Yamaguchi group leaders have been won over by Yamamoto Hiroshi, and the fourth-generation Takenaka Masahisa group values ​​every group leader.

"Haha, the Yondaime Hideaki Jinmu is the orthodox successor of the Yamaguchi-gumi. How could I not come!" Hayato Nagayama said a few polite words, and then introduced, "This is my son Nagayama Kumahara, Wakatou of the Shimizu family."

Nagayama Kumahara's strong body bowed respectfully: "This is the first time we meet, I am Nagayama Kumahara. Please give me your advice in the future!"

"Ah, the son of team leader Yongshan?!" Nakayama Katsumasa nodded, full of praise, "Sure enough, he is a talented person, and he looks dignified. He really has a father but no son."

 “Hahaha, thank you for the compliment.” Hayato Nagayama laughed and continued to chat.

Next to him, Nagayama Kumahara's eyes twitched. Ever since he was a child, no one has ever said that he is talented! They can say such hypocritical things, these old guys are really thick-skinned!

The two of them naturally couldn't talk much at the door. After exchanging a few words, Nagayama Hayato took Nagayama Kumahara and followed the younger brother who led him toward the assembly hall.

On the way, Nagayama Hayato said:

“Xiong Yuan, don’t look down on me. After you become the team leader, you will have to deal with these guys.”

 “.嘁.” It’s easier to kill someone.

The old man shook his head, but still said: "I brought you here today just to get to know the other team leaders of the Yamaguchi Group. It will also help you get an impression when we meet in the future."

"I see."

  Takenaka Masahisa was making final preparations before the naming ceremony in the hotel suite. He was wearing a well-fitting kimono, which made this guy with a ferocious face look a bit graceful.

 Beside him, a man named Zhongxi was reporting to him:

“The Fourth Generation Hiroshi Yamamoto has already won over nearly half of the immediate group leaders! They are secretly planning to officially remove the Yamaguchi-gumi’s Yamamoto representative crest tomorrow and establish a new club.”

 “Hmph! This hypocritical guy!!”

Masahisa Takenaka was very angry. Before the naming ceremony, the Yamaguchi-gumi was essentially still under the leadership of the third generation leader Yuzo Taoka. They deliberately chose to declare independence on the second day of the naming ceremony just to inform others that he, Yamamoto It's not that Hiroshi doesn't accept the late third generation, but he doesn't agree with his own fourth generation.

Hiro Yamamoto had never had a drink with him, so he did not have a settled relationship, and he did not need to bear the name of betrayal.

 “Any other news?!”

The younger brother, Nakanishi Kazuo, continued: "According to news from Tokyo, Misaka Takahiro, the director of the East Asian Association's Chinese group, will not come to attend the naming ceremony!"

 “Nani?!”

Takenaka Masahisa was a little surprised. Even though there had been some conflicts before, Misaka Takahiro had officially had a drink with him!

This is a clear betrayal!

"Konoya!" Takenaka Masahisa roared, "This guy Misaka Takahiro, I have long seen that he has a rebellious heart! Did he actually betray the family and fall in favor of Yamamoto Hiro because of an incident at a KTV? !”

“No,” Nakanishi Kazuo said, “It doesn’t seem like he has turned to Yamamoto Hiroshi.”

"Um?"

 “It seems that they are planning to break away from the Yamaguchi-gumi.”

Takenaka Masahisa widened his originally small and ruthless eyes: "Is there something wrong with this guy?"

 Leave the Yamaguchi-gumi? If Yamamoto Hiro didn't protect him, wouldn't he want to live? !

 “In short, he looks very confident.” Nakanishi Kazuo finally added.

“Hahahaha!” Takenaka Masako smiled instead of getting angry, “Then after the naming ceremony is over, I’ll go and ask him in person!”

"Hi!"

The banquet hall where the naming ceremony was held at the Naruto Hotel is a large room with an alcove. Today, the alcove has large pieces of paper written on it from left to right: "Hachiman Daibodhisattva", "Amaterasu the Great God", "Haruhi" The God of Ming Dynasty.

 In fact, it has the same meaning as the young and Dangerous boys in Hong Kong worshiping Guan Yu.

There were also "four parties sharing a seat" notes hanging around the banquet hall to prevent guests from fighting over seats.

 As the invited Yakuza personnel arrived one by one, the venue began to become noisy.

The Jida people who came here were very complicated. There were familiar people chatting and joking, people with conflicts quarreling and fighting, and there were also new faces making connections everywhere. In short, it looked like a bustling vegetable market.

However, everyone maintained a certain degree of restraint, so when the trumpet sounded and the master of ceremonies began to speak, the whole scene became quiet.

The master of ceremonies is also called a matchmaker. This is a position that can only be filled by highly respected people.

The matchmaker this time was Kazuma Tsumura of the Ono Family Yoshin Association. In his opening remarks, the naming ceremony for the fourth generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi officially began:

“Thank you all colleagues for coming to Naruto and participating in the naming ceremony of the fourth generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi. Team leader Masahisa Takenaka is a capable general of the Yamaguchi-gumi. He has won the trust of the third-generation head of the Yamaguchi-gumi team.”

After Tsumura Kazuma praised the ceremony on the stage, he also introduced the person who would be present at the ceremony, the recipient, the recommender, etc. Because the Sandaime had passed away, Taoka Fumiko acted as the successor.

 Finally, Masahisa Takenaka was invited to the stage.

 The naming ceremony has certain regulations. In terms of the complexity of the ceremony, it is almost the same as a neon wedding. Various carefully prepared ritual utensils, godly rituals, and commitments.

 In short, I want to show my attitude to everyone. I want to inherit the Yamaguchi-gumi’s orthodoxy.

 The most important thing, of course, is to take over the wine glass that symbolizes power.

The third generation's widow, Fumiko Tagoka, as the representative of the previous generation's eldest brother, took the wine glass handed over by the host. After drinking it in three and a half sips, she handed the empty glass to Takenaka Masahisa, symbolizing the transfer of power. .

 What is even more surprising is the host’s lines:

“From now on, you have the obligation to devote your loyalty and life to your relatives and this group.”

"Even if my wife is hungry, even if I risk my life, I still have to fulfill our obligations for the sake of family ties."

"From now on, you are a member of the gang, and your relationship is your relationship. For the sake of your relationship, you will have to go through water and fire."

Those who have experienced the baptism of the Internet can tell at a glance that this is a spiritual PUA that is a step further than workplace PUA! !

After Masahisa Takenaka took over the cup, the main process of the naming ceremony was completed! At this time, reporters can take photos and invited guests can come and visit the new Yamaguchi-gumi leader.

 The naming ceremony is over and the banquet begins!

 People who are familiar with each other hang around and drink together, and those who look unhappy can be drunk. There is a steady stream of delicious food on the table, and geisha performs to add to the fun.

While the guests were drinking, having fun, playing boxing games, and having fun, Takenaka Masahisa and a group of key members were also communicating with each other and building closer relationships with various groups.

“Team Leader Takenaka, congratulations!” Hayato Nagayama walked over.

“Team Leader Nagayama, thank you for your support. I will never forget the loyalty of the Shimizu family!” Masahisa Takenaka was deeply impressed by this old fox.

"Thank you, Team Leader Takenaka!" Hayato Nagayama introduced Nagayama Kumahara, "This is Inuko Nagayama Kumahara. I am old, and in a few years, the Shimizu family will be passed on to him."

 “Leader Takenaka!” Nagayama Kumahara bowed respectfully.

 “Hmm! What a good figure!”

Takenaka Masahisa smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed. He was from a martial arts sect, and he admired guys who showed great fighting ability at first glance.

 “.Excellent.” Nagayama Xiongyuan felt a chill.

Takenaka Masahisa praised him and then turned to Hayato Nagayama, his tone became serious: "Captain Nagayama, there is something you need to pay attention to."

“Please give me some instructions from Team Leader Takenaka.”

"Misaka Takahiro in Tokyo betrayed the Yamaguchi-gumi!" Masahisa Takenaka said with anger in his voice, "After I handle the affairs at the headquarters, I will go and deal with him!"

“However, he is angry about the KTV, so there may be problems with the KTV in Tokyo during this period.”

Hayato Nagayama quickly apologized: "Private Marseille, because of my family's small industry, I have alienated the Yamaguchi-gumi."

Takenaka Masahisa waved his hand:

"You are just an introduction. Misaka Takahiro must have been dissatisfied with the Kobe headquarters for a long time. He wants to be independent this time!"

  “?!”

Nagayama Hayabusa and Nagayama Kumahara looked at each other. Do you want to be independent when the Yamaguchi-gumi is at its peak?

Haven’t you seen all the Yakuza bosses filling the venue? !

“Anyway, let him be arrogant for a while, and I will make him disappear from Tokyo!”

“Hi! Thank you, Team Leader Takenaka!”

 After walking to the side, Hayato Nagayama said to his son: "I'm going to call Kaede. Although I was prepared, I didn't expect Takahiro Misaka to be so crazy. Please be careful at KTV during this time."

 “Hey, I got it!”

 “Naoki should also remind him! He also has a KTV”

 “Hmm~”

Naoki Nagayama, who was mentioned by two people, was at the Tokyo airport at this time where flying vehicles are parked.

· Shigeko Yamakawa, the business manager of MURAYAMA Event Support Co., Ltd., was speaking enthusiastically from the side:

“Zhi Shusang, as per your request, all three planes have been spray-painted!”

“There are also large posters, which have been made! As soon as they are lifted into the air, they can be hung up!”

Nagayama Naoki looked up at the behemoth in front of him. The huge spindle-shaped cabin was spray-painted with "Happy Birthday AKINA!" and nodded happily:

“Very good! Minister Shankawa, are you sure you can see clearly in the sky?!”

"Hi! Absolutely no problem!" Yamakawa Shigeko said, "Large companies in Tokyo have been using airships for advertising displays for many years! They definitely use the most eye-catching pigments! They also add fluorescent components, even on cloudy days. see it clearly!"

 Yes, these are three airships!

In Naoki Nagayama’s previous life, airships could only be seen in museums. However, in the Showa era, airships could still be seen from time to time, but they were mostly used as tourist tools and mobile advertising spaces.

 Naoki Nagayama asked MURAYAMA Event Support Co., Ltd. to rent all the idle airships in Tokyo. All three were painted with birthday wishes for Akina Nakamori, and a large poster was also made.

“Mr. Yamakawa, can I fly within the prescribed area that day?”

“Hi, the operating company of the airship has an internal relationship with the aviation bureau. As long as we are not on the route, we can apply for flight permission at any time!”

　　For Naoki Nagayama’s idea, Yamakawa Shigekō can be said to have done his best. It’s time to go to the company that runs the airship, and it’s time to make posters, and it’s also spray painting and modification. There’s nothing I can do about it, Naoki Nagayama has given me too much!

And this kind of creativity is really unimaginable!

He seems to be somewhat aware that by the time this birthday celebration is over, wealthy people in Tokyo will be aware of this romantic surprise! His company might receive a steady stream of orders! !

 Shankawa Fanggong has signed a ten-year contract with Airship!

 This is a gold mine!

Nagayama Naoki actually got inspiration from a Japanese drama in his memory, the live-action version of "Alice in the Land of Dying", which included a scene where an airship was used to hang a large poster.

However, Nagayama Naoki still sighed. His first thought was more romantic:

“What a pity. It would be great if you could write ‘Happy Birthday AKINA!’ when the fireworks explode in the sky!”

Shanchuan Fangong was stunned when he heard this, then smiled and said:

 “Naoki-san is joking, how can fireworks be able to write?!”

“Who says it’s not possible?” Nagayama Naoki shook his head, “Now it can be round, tree-shaped, flower-shaped, or rectangular. After all, a character is just a shape!”

 It’s just that fireworks for free writing have not yet been invented in this era!

Seeing that the preparations were in place, Nagayama Naoki no longer stayed here:

“Shanchuan Sang, I’ll leave it to you the day after tomorrow! Please set off on time!”

 “Hi! I understand!”

　When Nagayama Naoki's back disappeared, Shanchuan Fanggong touched his chin thoughtfully:

“Fireworks that can write, from Naoki Sang’s point of view, it seems that they are not impossible to make. After all, they are just graphics.”

“If the research is done, it will definitely be very popular, right?!”

 “Then the company will have an extra gold mine!”

 “Autumn bean sack! Why give it to the company?!”

“I, the Shanchuan family, should also have this overwhelming wealth!!”
