Tokyo Detective

Chapter 559 Fujiwara Mai Unifies the Yakuza?

Soon, Oda Riko received a special number and then arranged for a trusted confidante to contact the person mentioned by Akihito through the Prime Minister's Office's special phone line.

"The master wants you to secretly undermine Naoki Hanyu's circle, regardless of whether he lives or dies, to make him deserted by everyone and to let him taste what it feels like to lose someone who values ​​him."

"Don't worry, I will arrange for people to help."

"toot toot"

After the phone call ended, the government official nodded to the Prime Minister, and Oda Riko waved her hand to let him leave.

Unbeknownst to them, their communications had been intercepted by someone.

In the office of the AI ​​system for the young lady, dozens of kilometers away, several clones of Naoki Hanyu were busy chatting.

"Hey, that old woman seems to be using underhanded tactics against her main body."

"What's there to be afraid of? A prime minister who has lost law enforcement agencies, lost the House of Representatives, and no longer has the support of violent institutions, can she turn the world upside down? She's like a monkey, she can't escape my grasp."

Just as the rational clone was boasting about how he had the prime minister under his thumb, the avatar next to him slapped him hard on the back of the head.

"Stop pretending! Go and find out who the old woman is talking to."

The rational clone covered its head and roared.

"You fucking dare to film me?"

"Who told you to be lazy? I'm an incarnation, a cut above all you avatars."

These words immediately provoked public outrage.

"You think you're so superior? Hit him."

In an instant, the entire server room was in chaos. A short while later, several bruised and battered Naoki Hanyu returned to their seats, cursing and swearing.

It's normal for people to get into fights; things will usually calm down after a while.
.
On the other hand, Naoki Hanyu himself also learned who Riko Oda was communicating with. In fact, eavesdropping on Riko Oda and the entire cabinet was no easy task.

Naoki Hanyu also relied on the Miss System and three military satellites, and it took him a week to barely manage to do it the day before yesterday.

Now, three satellites provide full coverage of Japan. Naoki Hanyu trained a voiceprint model by using publicly available recordings of cabinet members' past conversations, and matched the target's biometric features in the encrypted stream to locate the target's call.

Simply put, cabinet members use satellite phones and encrypted dedicated lines. Naoki Hanyu can use his three military satellites to lock onto the satellite frequency bands used by cabinet members' dedicated lines through directional antenna arrays, and directly intercept the raw electromagnetic signals.

Even if they use terrestrial base stations (such as 4G/5G networks), the satellite will simultaneously monitor the uplink of the base station and capture the microsecond-level communication gap between the base station and the terminal.

Naoki Hanyu muttered to himself.

"The Locust Chamber, the Yamaguchi-kai, Japan's number one yakuza group, that's interesting."

He really didn't expect that the mere Japanese scumbag would jump out again when they were already on the sidelines. Moreover, judging from their tone of voice, the scumbag's strength was not weak at all.

As for the 112-year-old yakuza, in Naoki Hanyu's view, they were practically dead. The only thing he was wary of was how much of the Japanese underworld was involved.

Just then, a system notification sound rang out.

"Ding, you have received an 8-star Sin Star reward."

The reward for defeating King Ying is finally in my hands.

Naoki Hanyu didn't wait and opened it directly.

[Ding! You have obtained an Armored Company Lottery Ticket, which allows you to draw prizes from currently serving armored units from around the world.]

Naoki Hanyu frowned upon seeing the description. The last time he got an armor scroll was a 7-star reward, which gave him 3 infantry fighting vehicles. He never expected to get another armor scroll.

He hates lotteries because they're like gambling.

8级奖励的上限可是100多亿，而一般的步兵战车和千禧年坦克也就3到6亿左右，就算一个连有10到14辆装甲单位，充其量也就40亿到80亿。

If the winning ticket is a light armored vehicle, it won't even be worth 40 billion, let alone 10 billion. It would be a huge loss, so in Hanyu Naoki's opinion, the chances of losing money with this lottery ticket are even greater.

"Fine, since it's already here, I'll just draw it."

As the lottery tickets were used, images of armored units from various countries around the world began to appear in my mind, including armored vehicles and tanks: Russia, the European Union, Africa, South America, Central and South Asia, a mysterious superpower, Japan, South Korea, America, and so on.

The final shot focused on a tank that was a full 10 meters long, which surprised Naoki Hanyu.

"It's this thing?"

M1A2 SEPv3 Main Battle Tank with 14 Anti-Drone Configurations

The initial version of the M1A2 entered service in 1992. The SEPv3 upgrade began in 2015, and it was officially and gradually deployed to the US military in 2020. It is now the main active-duty model. After the outbreak of the war between the two countries, its anti-drone configuration was temporarily upgraded.

[Vehicle length: 9.8 meters, width: 3.5 meters, height: 2.44 meters, top speed: 66 kilometers per hour.]

Armor and Protection Systems

[Third-generation depleted uranium composite armor: Turret armor equivalent to 1100 mm of homogeneous steel, frontal protection against armor-piercing projectiles; hull frontal armor increased to 600 mm, with armor penetration resistance of approximately 1800 mm.]

[Active Defense System: Capable of intercepting some anti-tank missiles, rockets, and small drones with speeds below 500 m/s.]

[Equipped with a vehicle-mounted electronic warfare module, it can interfere with the approach of drones.]

Infrared decoy system: Capable of launching infrared decoy flares.

【arms】

The 120mm M256A1 smoothbore gun can fire the latest armor-piercing rounds.

[A remote weapon station allows the commander to operate the 12.7mm M2HB heavy machine gun mounted on the roof of the vehicle from inside the vehicle.]

[7.62mm M240 coaxial machine gun, linked to the main gun.]

[Smoke Grenade Launcher: 8-cell M250 launcher, providing soft-kill protection]

If Naoki Hanyu remembers correctly, even at cost, each of these is worth 20 billion yen. 14 of them would be 280 billion yen, which is an incredible profit. The Plain Wave Kingdom only has 34 M12 Type III tanks, and they might not even be the anti-drone version.

Naoki Hanyu thought of his armored platoon, which he had accumulated over a long period of time, and realized that it was utterly worthless in comparison. He decided that he would have to change his vehicle from now on.

"Please don't blame me for falling for someone else, Miss. This stuff just smells better."

14 M12 Type III main battle tanks, one M12 tank, 3 top-of-the-line Japanese Type 19 armored fighting vehicles, and one top-of-the-line American M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle.

Such an armored reinforced company, in the hands of Naoki Hanyu, would be enough to launch a real ground war.

"Hopefully we can use it as soon as possible."

Naoki Hanyu continues to open 8-star skill chests.

[Ding! Opened an 8-star skill chest and obtained an S-rank skill, Killing Intent Physique]

[Killing Intent Physique (S): You can detect and lock onto anyone who is hostile towards you, whether they are looking through binoculars or glass, as long as they are within 2 kilometers. Strength +15, Stamina +15, Agility +15, Spirit +30]

【Strength: 265】

[Endurance: 297]

[Agility: 238]

【Spirit: 289】

What the heck? A murderous physique? That's so fantastical.

With the first SS-level skill as an example, Naoki Hanyu suspected that this thing was a match for the S-level skill Soul Devouring Hand, since among the S-level skills, only these two were full of fantasy elements.

Of course, it doesn't matter if he guesses wrong, since the new skill is quite useful to him, especially in the current situation.

The underground forces in Tokyo and even Japan were gradually rising, but someone's actions brought the underground turmoil in Japan to an abrupt halt.

Naoki Hanyu led his men to visit the underground forces that were prominent in Japan, including the third-ranked Tenryu-kai (whose members were his own) and the second-ranked Sumiyoshi-gumi.

At 6-4-2 Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo, a Hummer arrived at this large garden in a prime location. Inside were Naoki Hanyu and his apprentice, Mai Fujiwara.

Before the two could get out of the car, two men in suits who had been waiting respectfully opened the car door and bowed to Naoki Hanyu.

"Welcome to the Sumiyoshi Group, gentlemen."

"Fujiwara Mai said softly."

"Thank you."

Naoki Hanyu nodded and got out of the car, with Mai Fujiwara hurriedly following behind.

The 3-meter-high, rustic wooden gate of the garden slowly opened, and hundreds of Sumiyoshi Group executives stood on both sides of the gate, bowing and shouting.

"Welcome, distinguished guest."

The commotion startled Fujiwara Mai. Although she had close ties with certain underworld forces and sometimes asked them for small favors, she had never seen such a grand reception before.

In particular, the head of the Sumiyoshi group and the head of the wakagashira bowed directly to them, which shows how humble they were.

The 13th head of the Sumiyoshi-gumi, Ryota Takashima, and his younger brother, Yuta Takashima, are cousins. One is 71 years old and the other is 59 years old.

"Chief Hanyu, Inspector Fujiwara, welcome to our office," Naoki Hanyu asked casually.

"Wouldn't it be abrupt to visit so suddenly?"

Yuta Takashima hurriedly bowed and scraped. They were very wary of the man in front of them, not because he was some kind of Japanese hero, but because he dared to go toe-to-toe with the prime minister in the political arena.

Aside from his status as the world's strongest individual, he is also a highly influential figure in the Japanese government.

"Not at all, it's an honor for us to visit the Sumiyoshi Gumi."

Naoki Hanyu nodded.

"Indeed, it is an honor for you that I can visit you instead of suddenly wiping you out."

These words stunned the two brothers. How could anyone say something like that?

Ignoring everyone's reactions, Naoki Hanyu walked straight into the hall, as if he were the master of the place.

"Let's get down to business."

Fujiwara Mai, standing to the side, was completely bewildered. Was her senior taking this seriously?

If she were the team leader, she would have already called hundreds of axemen to chop such an arrogant person into mincemeat, but it seems she couldn't win.

In the conference room, Naoki Hanyu sat directly in the head seat, looking down at the two yakuza bosses who had voluntarily sat in the guest seats.

"Gentlemen, I won't beat around the bush. Can the Sumiyoshi Group be put to my use?"

"."

Fujiwara Mai choked on her tea after taking a sip, and then explained to the two embarrassed yakuza bosses.

"Ahem, you two, what the senior means is whether you would like to become our friends."

Ryota Takashima bowed his head and agreed.

"The Sumiyoshi Group is certainly willing to be a friend of Director Hanyu, and it is our duty to do things for our friends."

Naoki Hanyu asked calmly.

"To what extent are you willing to go to war with other gangs? I'll let you fight them."

"Well, our team is also aging, so we can't spare too many people."

Naoki Hanyu threw a document at him.

"Looking at these materials, I never imagined that Sumiyoshi Gumi would have such a diverse range of industries, including construction, the sex industry, finance, and the restaurant industry."

Yuta Takashima picked up the document and handed it to his older brother, while Ryota Takashima became increasingly alarmed as he read it.

Such practices include: forcibly seizing public works projects for money laundering and violently monopolizing regional development; love hotels; massage parlors; free information centers; loan sharking; and restaurants that use cash transactions to evade taxes.

In short, all the seemingly legal but actually illegal information is included, though it lacks some of the decisive evidence that would lead to a court conviction.

"Sir, we're just trying to earn a little money for our retirement."

"Really? What about these?"

Naoki Hanyu threw out another document, and this time Yuta Takashima's expression turned even uglier.

Because it's a business mainly controlled by the younger generation of the Sumiyoshi Group, it's involved in drugs, gambling and fraud, debt collection, land grabbing, and even organ trafficking.

Although the violation is more serious, it still lacks the most important empirical evidence, just like the previous one.

Even so, both gang leaders began to break out in a cold sweat.

What exactly did the killing god in front of them want to do? It didn't seem like he wanted to kill the two of them, but it couldn't be any better.

Yuta Takashima made a dogeza (a traditional Chinese kneeling posture) with his forehead touching the ground.

"Sir, it's because we didn't discipline them properly."

Naoki Hanyu gave up.

"Don't act like you're capable of managing things. Aren't the younger generation of the Sumiyoshi Group trying to take over the positions of you old guys? It's called 'gekokujo' (overthrowing superiors)."

"I"

The two old men didn't know how to answer for a moment. Yes, they were old and society was progressing, so they didn't want to risk their lives and wanted a more stable life. But the younger men under their command didn't think that way.

He would go into whichever industry made money quickly, and he felt that the old guys who were only interested in stability were a big hindrance. He gradually started to target the older members of the upper echelons, which is one of the reasons why Naoki Hanyu set his sights on the Sumiyoshi Group.

Finding evidence to prosecute is too troublesome; it's better to appease the old guys whose ambitions have been extinguished.

Previously, he was worried that the National Public Security Commission's accountability measures would seriously involve organized crime, but now that the commission is in his own territory, he doesn't have that concern for the time being.

Naoki Hanyu taps the table.

"I'll help you take all the young and middle-aged men away, and in return, you Sumiyoshi will be at my service. How about that?"

The two underworld bosses stared at each other.

"Could you give us some time to think about it?"

"Ten minutes. If you don't agree, I don't mind uprooting you all."

Logically speaking, as the second-largest yakuza group in Japan with over 8000 official members, the Sumiyoshi Group should not accept being humiliated like this. However, the Sumiyoshi Group is currently in dire straits.

The Sumiyoshi Group was plagued by internal divisions and struggles, faced challenges from the rising Tenglong Society, and was gradually being swallowed up by the more powerful Yamaguchi Society. At this moment, the Sumiyoshi Group was unable to unite as one and was at its weakest.

The two old men discussed it in hushed tones for a while, and finally bowed their heads in submission.

"We are willing to do things for the adults."

Naoki Hanyu quietly observed the two, confirming that while there was a slight hostility, it was not intense.

If there is strong hostility, regardless of whether they verbally submit at this time, they will become the next target of attack.

"You know the policewoman next to me, right? From now on, anything she says can represent me."

Upon hearing this, the two gangsters looked at the policewoman in surprise, for she was definitely their most trusted confidante.

Fujiwara Mai was also dumbfounded. Why was she pushed out like this without any warning? She was clearly not familiar with the Sumiyoshi Group or other vicious organizations.

"Senior, I can't do it."

"Don't think I don't know. Over the years, haven't many gangsters called you 'Big Sister'? You also have a lot of gangster boss contact numbers in your phone."

Fujiwara Mai had a "how did you know?" look on her face, which was both endearing and silly.

"."

Naoki Hanyu never imagined that Mai Fujiwara had such great influence in the underworld. Although she initially used his name to make contact with the underworld, he thought that the policewoman would at most accept drinks and ask the gang for small favors.

Who would have thought that Mai Fujiwara would surpass her predecessor? If it weren't for the decision to clean up the underground forces and delve deeper into the gangsters she had previously looked down upon, no one would have realized that this policewoman had quite a lot of screen time.

With the help of gangs like the Tenglong Society, Fujiwara Mai's connections in the underworld have surpassed those of her mentor, and she even has to step in to stop some gang conflicts.

Imagine two groups about to clash, when a policewoman suddenly appears with her men, disperses the crowd, and leads both leaders to negotiate peace—a truly bizarre scene.

Naoki Hanyu was speechless. He never imagined that the once gentle policewoman would become the big boss in the eyes of the underworld.

Faced with her master's scrutiny, Fujiwara Mai seemed a little embarrassed, her chin almost touching her ample bosom.

"I'm not a gang leader. I just think that if the underworld doesn't cause trouble, society will be more stable. I'm trying to make the country a better place in my own way."

"Yes, yes, so I'll leave the Sumiyoshi Association to you."

An hour later, after the two sides finished their discussion, Fujiwara Mai was suddenly stopped by Takashima Yuta.

The elderly gangster bowed and offered a bottle of beverage with both hands.

"Ms. Fujiwara, I've heard the rumors about you. This is a drink I'm treating you to. I look forward to working with you in the future."

"."

According to rumors, this beverage is not just any drink, but a symbol of submission.

In this way, Naoki Hanyu spent two days visiting various underground forces in Tokyo to identify those who harbored great hostility towards him and those who could be won over.

Mai Fujiwara also frequently appeared in the sights of various yakuza groups, and regardless of whether they were willing to cooperate or not, they would always be given bottles of drinks.

Someone also acquired a title.

"Mai, who loves to drink"

It alludes to a policewoman's wildness and her desire to control the gang.
