Tokyo Ghoul: Starting with the Twin Kamui

"As expected... In that case, the most important food problem can finally be solved."

Yoshimura Aite's tone was somewhat wistful.

............

In order to deal with the "Dragon" who is about to resurface in the underworld, Uchiha Byakuya plans to meet with the Prime Minister in his capacity as the Chairman of the CCG.

Although his original position was director, he could easily take the position of chairman of the council if he wanted to.

In Japan, the position of the CCG Chairman is roughly equivalent to that of a cabinet minister.

Moreover, this is only the apparent status. The Hexiu family, which originally possessed the strongest martial power, was a true power that could control everything.

Even the Prime Minister has to give face to the CCG Speaker.

"Chairman Uchiha..."

The Prime Minister was, of course, already aware of what had happened between the CCG and the Washuu family.

As the Prime Minister, how could he not know the secrets of the Washu family? Rather, it is more accurate to say that his cabinet and the Washu family were conspiring together.

The word "interests" can encompass everything.

Therefore, he was wary of Uchiha Byakuya.

"Let me get straight to the point. You should know about the 'First One-Eyed King' of the Washuu family, right?"

Uchiha Byakuya got straight to the point.

"..."

The Prime Minister looked somber and did not answer.

Because he must be careful with his words, as every word could become a weapon in the hands of the other party.

If he admits that he knows about the "first One-Eyed King," then this will most likely become leverage against him.

Uchiha Byakuya could also see what the Prime Minister was worried about, but he didn't care and continued, "The first One-Eyed King became the King of the Underground. After 'transforming into a dragon,' he slept underground for a long time. But now the Washuu Clan is about to awaken the 'dragon' underground. At that time, the entire Tokyo will suffer another catastrophe, and the severity will only be greater than before, because the first One-Eyed King was already very merciful."

Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister's eyes trembled slightly.

He clearly understood the consequences if the "dragons" of the underworld were to reappear in the light of day.

"So, I'd like to discuss with you the possibility of organizing all the civilians in Tokyo to temporarily seek refuge outside of Tokyo."

Uchiha Byakuya revealed his true intentions.

"......I see."

The Prime Minister remained silent for a moment before nodding slightly.

Although he didn't completely believe what Uchiha Byakuya said, if the Washuu clan really went to the underworld, they could indeed awaken the "dragon".

He wouldn't dare take that bet.

If he loses the bet, he'll be in trouble too!

............

While Uchiha Byakuya was talking to the Prime Minister, Washuu Tsuneyoshi and Washuu Yoshitoki were unaware of what was happening.

Because they were confined to the Washuu clan's residence by Uchiha Byakuya, he certainly wouldn't allow them to roam freely.

Washu Tsunekichi was quite honest, because he was just waiting for his clansmen, who were still in the underground world, to awaken the "dragon".

Now that no one in the underground world is interfering with their clansmen, it's estimated that they'll be successful soon!

Chapter 156 The King of Harmony

Wasu's Residence, 1st Ward, Tokyo.

The entire mansion was empty, with only Washu Tsunekichi and Washu Yoshitoki remaining.

The rest of the "He Xiu" members are either in the underworld or acting as puppet decision-makers in the CCG.

Uchiha Byakuya did not directly eliminate the decision-making body, but instead allowed those "Washu" people he had previously captured to continue in their positions.

However, they had no real power and were merely puppets of Uchiha Byakuya.

Today, three uninvited guests arrived at the Hexiu residence.

Nifuku, Rize, and Kamishiro Chasei.

The first person to meet them was Washu Yoshitoki.

"Erfu, Lishi, what are you doing back here?"

He Xiuji immediately asked.

"Come back and take a look. Come to think of it, I haven't been back to this house much, even though I'm a member of the Hexiu family."

Furuta Nifuku said with a smile.

However, his name will soon change to Heshu Nifuku.

Before this, Erfu had only visited this family a handful of times, and each time it was done secretly with the permission of his father and Xiu Changji.

Even so, they cannot let other members of their tribe see it.

"..."

Washu Yoshitoki fell silent.

He knew very well that the Washuu family had done a tremendous amount of harm to Nifuku and Rize.

He was clearly Erfu's half-brother, yet he barely knew Erfu and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Kamishiro Kagayoshi silently followed Nifuku and Rize. He had come along to protect them.

Next, Washuji did not stop Nifuku and the others.

Erfu and his companions soon met Hexiu Changji.

Washuu Tsunekichi was meditating with his eyes closed when he heard footsteps that didn't sound like Washuu Yoshitoki's, so he immediately opened his eyes.

"Erfu?"

Upon seeing a very familiar face, Kazukichi was immediately surprised.

Compared to Nifuku, Washuu Tsunekichi showed little reaction to Rize beside him.

From the perspective of the entire Washuu family, Rize, as the "mother," is definitely more important than Nifuku, who is not the legal wife.

But for Washuu Tsunekichi personally, what he cared about most was undoubtedly Nifuku.

"Given the current situation of the Xiu family, am I allowed to call you father?"

Erfu directly asked He Xiuchangji.

"Of course, no problem..."

Washu Tsunekichi's eyes suddenly looked complicated, unsure whether to be happy or sad.

Now that the Washuu clan has been utterly destroyed by Uchiha Byakuya, who would care about the so-called "traditions" of the Washuu clan?

However, Erfu prefers a less formal title, "Dad," rather than "father."

"Um......"

He Xiu Changji immediately responded.

In contrast, Rize didn't have a good attitude towards Washu Tsuneyoshi. To be precise, she disliked the entire Washu family, and only her childhood friend, Nifuku, was somewhat nice to her.

"Erfu, from now on you will be the King of Harmony. From now on you will stay here."

"Washu Tsunekichi said."

He wasn't lying, because he wanted to take advantage of the chaos within the Washu family to completely change the family.

He was indeed the head of the Washuu family, but he was still subject to the decision-making of the family members. Furthermore, the "V" organization did not completely obey him; the "V" organization actually served the Washuu family, not him as the head.

Under the constraints of multiple parties, he also had to follow the traditions of the Hexiu family.

Therefore, Washuu Tsunekichi wanted to take this opportunity to put Nifuku in power. If a member of the branch family who was not born into the main family became the king of Washuu, he could destroy the tradition of the Washuu family to the greatest extent.

Based on his understanding of Erfu, he knew that Erfu was intelligent enough, which was one of the reasons why he doted on Erfu.

"Can Rize stay too?"

Erfu was naturally very happy, but he was still concerned about Lishi's situation.

“Yes, Rize can also restore the name ‘Washu’ and no longer serve as the ‘mother’.”

He Xiu Changji fulfilled Nifuku's wish.

The reason he went to such lengths to keep Erfu here was because the "dragon" of the underworld was about to revive, and he was worried that Erfu would be accidentally harmed, so he wanted Erfu to stay by his side.

As for Rize, he saw her as an afterthought, and she could also make Nifuku obedient.

“No, I have no interest in the name ‘Washu’. I am now Rize Kamishiro.”

However, Rize spoke coldly.
