"Correct," grinned the Prime Minister, "Though we are not able to do anything about the One Shadow Nine Fist as they are considered 'foreign' dignitaries, you councilman Ishida, are not. To so shamelessly abandon your fellow countrymen that you swore to protect in front of me is not something I will let go."

If it hadn't been for the fact that Ryozanpaku was there to back him up with the others attacking the tanker, the Prime Minister would've been warned by his bodyguard to be careful. However, seeing that that table was tipped in the favor, the Prime Minister decided to reach out a little.

"You can't hold me here!" barked Ishida, "They won't let you do such a thing!"

Ishida looked over to the One Shadow Nine Fist, who were already leaving. As Senzui was the last one to walk out, he glanced over at them.

"He's all yours," stated Senzui indifferently, as Ishida's usefulness was at its end. Not to mention there wasn't anything important Ishida had, such as the location of their hidden base. Nor was it worth fighting for when they knew it was a trap to hold them.

Ishida could only gape in shock at being abandoned as the door closed behind Senzui.

"Well then, let's show you just what crimes you've committed," declared Akisame as his eyes glowed.

Ishida felt himself shrinking as the looming shadows of others began to cover him before screaming in fear.

Mildred growled in anger as Shigure managed to keep dodging her arrows before closing in the distance, attacking with the back of her sword.

"Using the back of your sword? You Katsujinken are always the same," huffed Mildred as she jumped above Shigure before firing a shot at almost point-blank range.

Shigure not only dodged it, but she grabbed the arrow by the end of the shaft with her index and middle finger. Before Mildred had time to comprehend that as she landed, Shigure had already grabbed her bow and reversed it in her grip while notching the captured arrow, aiming for Mildred's stomach.

Kousaka-ryuu: Kagaibanare (Kousaka style: Mirror Release)

Mildred had to bend forward, pushing her hips and butt out to buy enough distance and time to catch the arrow before it went through her stomach before lashing out at Shigure, who dodged.

"Trying to shoot me with my own bow and arrow!?" hissed Mildred, impressed and insulted by what Shigure had done, especially since she couldn't stop the tip from actually breaking the skin on her abs.

"We have incoming!" warned Tsutomu as more ships clearly waving the black flag of Yami approached them.

"Tch, time to go," scoffed Sakaki, clearly unhappy and wanting to go on with the fight. Though atleast they were able to come here thanks to Kenichi and Niijima's information if it weren't for their spy they wouldn't know about this and would have been on a backfoot while dealing with this.

The six of the Eight Executioner Blades along with Kentaro whose face has swollen by now, begged otherwise. They would've loved to cut loose, but they ended up spending half the time trying to save their cargo. In fact, they ended up losing one when Shiba, Sakaki, and Apachai happened to punch the same cargo container at the same time, sending it flying into the water. To make it worse, Shigure had cut the container in half as it went flying.

"Let's go," said Mayu as she and Tsutomu disengaged from Raki, as did the other masters, jumping back onto the convoy. With a nod, the captain ordered the ships to turn back to the harbor. They didn't have the firepower to fight the battleships clearly on their way to back up Yami. Nor did Yami attempt to chase the fleeing ships, knowing it was vital to secure their war funds.

Secret Yami Base

The One Shadow Nine Fist was waiting at the harbor as the tanker pulled up the Eight Executioner Blades, looking mighty weary.

'It's a good thing we didn't put everything into the tanker,' thought Senzui.

A good majority of the funds had been in the tanker, but not everything. Some of it had been transported via other means of transportation as a backup. They had a few pieces of equipment that had been raided by a mysterious party, so Senzui decided to make a few backup plans.

"Where was the leak?" asked Seijiro as they landed on the docks.

"Unknown," replied Senzui, "We're looking into it right now, but it's not from our end. We merely supplied the funds and the location of it. Your group was responsible for transportation and security. Perhaps it was one of your member's rampant acts that gave away the secrecy."

"He is still in the bed so there is no way he could have blabbered his mouth" Rin stated as they knew who Senzui was talking about.

"I am not talking about him" Senzui said as he looked at Kentaro, at first he thought he would be better than Mihai atleast but he was wrong as he was much more blood thirsty.

The other members of the Eight Executioners Blades tried their best to not look at Kentaro at that statement. Raki gave him an irritating side glance while Mildred merely huffed before turning away. The result ended up with Kentaro beginning to steam up in anger as his face turned red. He had been having fun slaughtering the guards at the docks, baiting them to call more reinforcements so he could increase his kill count.He also wanted to show he was better than Mihai to permanently take his position but it looked like he fucked up.

In hindsight, it could've been what brought the other members of Ryozanpaku towards them faster than expected. They had baited Ryozanpaku to a government building with some success, but clearly, Ryozanpaku had expected such a tactic to the fact they even managed to gather other masters. Taiki and Danki weren't too much of a surprise, as they had been seen before allied with Ryozanpaku. And finally, Mr Busujima was also a surprise as the guy was a well respected swordsman in the underground, but somewhat within expectations when the FBI was mentioned.

The men that they sent to Ryozanpaku were captured and now we're in a secure prison from where it would be hard to break them out. But it wasn't clear who took care of them as even those who were sent to just watch from a distance were captured so they were in the dark.

Though that meant that they had the others in reserve, waiting to see what Yami would've done. And since they had connections to inspector Honmaki as well as Ryozanpaku sympathizers within the police force, it was possible that they had been letting Ryozanpaku listen in to the reports. Not to mention Saiga was still out there somewhere with connections to the government to help out. And with Kentaro's bloodlust, it probably tipped them off to investigate the harbor.

At least, that was the conclusion Senzui came up with. In short, it was all Kentaro's fault that Ryozanpaku had managed to locate their mode of transportation and interfere in time. Oh how wrong was he.

"Nonetheless, the funds have arrived," said Senzui, turning around to leave, "We will proceed with the next part of the plan. We have agents already attempting to recover the container that was lost in the ocean, though some funds may have been lost now."
