"WE HEED THE CALL OF OUR MASTER, KAZUKI ONI, MASTER OF THE DEATH PALACE"
With this, the swarms of people who had gathered at the graveyard were able to reunite with their Leader, The Master Of Death Palace, Kazuki Oni Yamato. Everyone there belongs to Death Palace. Death Palace is not owned by any kind of Yakuza Family or Any organization. In Tokyo, Japan The Death Palace group is only known for being the SOLE YAKUZA Group which requires not a single Yakuza family backup or any organization affiliation. The Death Palace moves and operates alone.
[The Reign Of Death Palace Started 10 Years Ago, Which Caused Chaos Throughout Tokyo- ERA OF ONI]
After 10 Whole Years Later The Death Palace Was Once Again United.
"...." Kaito was dumbfounded by the whole situation that just happened. While Hiro who was among the troops, was trying to figure out his situation.
Yamato raises his hand and then puts them down as he signals all the troops to stand upright. The whole troops that were behind him stood up like a pole. Jin and Kajuwa were clenching their fists while looking at their Master's back.
"We will find out whoever did this to Mistress and bring them to you... Sir" said Kajuwa.
It was raining heavily as they stood next to Yamato after a while Yamato turned away to face his subordinates. Seeing his man he smiled at them.
- Just like old times. A few of you are missing... which I regret to this day.
Yamato faces Kajuwa and pats his shoulder
- We sure will find whoever did this to Mijumi. I will chase them till the end of this world.
Yamato faces the crowd, as he runs his hand over his head making his hair go behind making his face clear to see.
- Who is currently occupying Tokyo, Jin?
Jin steps up as he speaks
"After you gave out your order and made an oath at the Death palace, to stay out of Tokyo and stay away from you by erasing every trace of our activities, everyone went their own way."
The rain slowly started to stop but the sky was still gloomy while the graveyard was filled with people wearing black suits.
"Kajuwa stayed downtown, While I was operating a small business with my younger sibling in Kiyose"
Yamato looks at the crowd, then looks at Jin.
-A small business requires this many men? You were still operating even after I firmly told everyone there not to do so
"I apologize, sir.. We had to.."
Yamato looked at Kajuwa, glaring at him.
-For fuck sake, get me a pack of cigarettes Kajuwa
Kajuwa was hesitant to do so as he speaks
"But Sir.. you quit smoking 10 years ago though"
-That was 10 years ago, and there was a reason to do so as well.. Now would you BRING me some?
Kajuwa started to sweat, as he noticed Yamato was glaring at him.
"I AM SORRY CHIEF I WILL BRING SOME RIGHT AWAY!!"
Kajuwa storms off from there to fetch a pack of cigarettes for Yamato
- What did you mean by you had to do something behind my back, breaking the oath..at that? Do you know the price of a Yakuza who breaks the Oath?
Jin looked at Yamato
"At that time a pinky of mine didn't matter Sir! Everyone that was doing all sorts of Yakuza work was doing it because of my order!! I will happily give out my pinky in their stead!!
Kajuwa who went to fetch a pack of cigarettes, came back. He noticed the tension among the troops who were murmuring among the crowd while Jin was visibly sweating while clenching his fists, staring right into Yamato's eyes.
(ah this fucker..!) said Kajuwa in his mind
Kajuwa hurriedly went close to Yamato He pulled a cigarette out of the packet serving it before Yamato while staring at the ground. Yamato looked back at Mijumis Graveyard as he spoke in his mind.
(Forgive me Mijumi)
He looks back at Kajuwa and takes the cigarette in his mouth. Kajuwa pulls out a lighter and lights the cigarette for Yamato.
(I had to break the promise I made to you)
As Yamato was smoking, he held the cigarette in his mouth and went close to Jin staring right into his eyes.
- Seeing your reaction of yours and those men back there, feels like you had quite a good reason for going against my words
"I dare to say this Chief, after you went low and your heat was removed the Local Yakuza families started to move into our turf. They started to gain territories that belonged to Death Palace. One of the major Families... took over our first headquarters" said Kajuwa
Yamato was smoking as he was staring at the sky.
- Which family was it?
Jin took a step back as he speaks
"It was the Hajime Family, that we never heard of 10 years ago. As soon as they took over the hideout, our men who were hiding and monitoring our headquarters became their target and started to take down those small groups. I was also informed that they were taking over the local business by selling your name.. Sir"
- I see that's why you were gathering our scattered members.
"Yes Sir!"
- I won't be needing your pinky then
Jin bows down
"Thank you for showing me mercy, Sir!!"
Hiro who was among the crowd was confused seeing his elder brother bowing down to a person that is unknown to him.
"Why is brother bowing down to him..." Said, Hiro
"Is this your first time seeing that person over there?" said someone beside him, with a huge body build.
"My name is Daiki, I noticed you came along with Sir Jin and Kajuwa"
"I am Hiro, Yes I did come along with them, Jin is my Elder brother. But it is my first time seeing him bowing to that person"
"You must be a greenhorn then, you ever heard about Death Palace," said Daiki
"I heard about them from my brother, he told me they used to be the only Yakuza Group who were capable of operating Tokyo. What does that have to do with that guy with a cool look"
Daiki chuckles as he says to Hiro
"Well that man is the Sole Leader of the Death Palace group and this crowd of people belongs to him"
"Oh, he is the leader of the death palace... HUHHH!!" As Hiro was processing Daiki's words he nearly screamed after finding out the man in front of them was a being that created chaos throughout the history of Yakuza and went missing the next moment-"ONI"
Daiki was quick enough to wrap his hands around Hiro's mouth.
"Shh, What the fuck are you screaming for you bastard!!?"
Yamato looked at the crowd
-What was that sound?
The crowd of troops was all standing quietly
"Must be a rat that sneaked into there for the first time, I will take care of it sir" Said Jin
Kajuwa stepped forward as he politely asked Yamato
"What are your Orders Chief?"
-For now, set people up to monitor the whole Shibuya District, tell them to investigate local Yakuza, and find information about a recent Hit. And find out who... Ordered it.
Yamato looked at Kaito who was still shocked.
-Kaito come here
Kaito gets close to Yamato
-Meet with them they work under me, and you two introduce yourselves. He is your Junior, he is a Police officer in the Shibuya district.
Kajuwa And Jin Introduce themselves to Kaito
"The name is Jin Okamura" - [3rd Lieutenant of Death Battalion]
"Kajuwa Amano" - [2nd Lieutenant of Death Battalion]
Kaito could still feel the spiritual pressure from them as he introduced himself while looking at the ground.
"I am K-Kaito, Sir!"
Kaito looked at Yamato, Yamato could tell that he had a lot of questions in mind.
- I know you have lots of questions to ask, but you should better get to work now. I will call you when it's time.
Kaito Nods and takes his leave avoiding the crowd
- Get someone to monitor Kaito as well.
"Yes, Chief," said Kajuwa.
-Since I have gathered you all, I can't help but notice that the Head Captain and 1st Lieutenant are absent.
That question made both Kajuwa and Jin silent. Yamato started to get wind of the situation.
-Speak up, Jin, Kajuwa.
Yamato throws away the cigarette. As Kajuwa takes the lead
"After you gave out your orders, the 1st Lieutenant was the first one to take his group out of the Palace Branch," Said Kajuwa.
"It also seemed that our financial reports and business areas data were also revealed to the Hajime Family. As for captain...." Jin looked away in shame as he stopped his sentence mid-way.
"Captain Joined the Dono Clan, he holds the position of 3rd Elder there"
-He joined.. The Dono Clan....? (Shintaro Dono...)
-Where is the 1st Lieutenant right now?
Asked Yamato.
"We were keeping tabs on him, He was reported to be seen in a bar called Bar Jail in Shinjuku City. He is quite regular at that bar"
Yamato took off the black coat he was wearing exposing his white shirt beneath it.
- Kajuwa carry out the first order. Jin gathers the 3rd Battalion. We are going to Shinjuku City.
Kajuwa and Jin both bowed down to Yamato and shouted.
"HAI SIR!!!"
Yamato was holding his coat in his arms as he was moving toward the crowd. Everyone made out their way by lining up sideways making a way through the middle. Hiro and Daiki were still talking and bickering not knowing that others had moved away from the path. Yamato was going towards them, and Jin and Kajuwa were following behind him. Jin and Kajuwa notice Hiro. Kajuwa leaves a heavy sigh while Jin was embarrassed
"ah this little shit.." said Jin under his breath
Yamato looked straight at them. While Hiro was so into bickering Daiki, Daiki felt the urgent need to move his body to avoid something dangerous. Daiki looked around him and saw that they were the only ones in the middle of the path blocking Yamato. And worse is that Yamato is Looking at them. Daiki felt like shitting in that spot, he grabbed Hiro with his huge build and jumped sideways to join the line. Yamato Passed through as he looked at both Daiki and Hiro, then Smirked and went his way. As he was going out of the Graveyard, Hiro looked at Yamato's back, his white was wet and a tattoo could be seen all over his back which looked like -"ONI"
12.30 pm - [Special Force Head Office - 1st Division, Tokyo Branch]
After leaving the graveyard, Yamato gave two orders to two of his Lieutenant. Jin and Kajuwa went to do their duties as per the order. After a while, Yamato went to Shibuya Special Force Head Office. He was sitting on his desk, recalling the days 10 years ago. And a promise he made to his late wife Mijumi Kurosaki, while looking at the revolver he got after Joining the Special Force. He saw the envelope he left before rushing out. He takes the envelope in his hand and rips it off. Yamato starts to read the content contained on the page that was in the envelope. After reading it Yamato clenched the paper that he was holding onto and stuffed it in his pocket. He left the revolver on his desk. Yamato leaves his office, on his way to Shintaro Dono he sees a tall black muscular guy guarding his office. He approaches in front of the guy guarding the door.
- Is Shintaro Dono inside? Yamato asked the guard with a stern voice.
The tall black guy looked down at Yamato and said
"He is"
Yamato walks right towards the door to enter the office but the guard blocks the door by standing right in front of the door.
-What the fuck do you think you are doing right now?
Yamato looks at the guard directly in his eyes.
"Boss ordered me not to let you enter his office" The guard smirked as he looked down at Yamato
-Move
Yamato tilted his head to the left looking dead into his eyes showing his annoyance. The black tall guard felt inferior to Yamato because of his looks. The guard launched a heavy punch with his full body against Yamato, who still hadn't moved or shown an ounce of fear.
The guard launches his fist with his full bulking body against Yamato. With an inhuman reflex, Yamato shifted his whole body to the right. At that peak moment, the guard realized his world was now upside down. His eyes were looking here and there he noticed something else, the time was moving slowly. The guard finally caught his eyes on Yamato, it seemed like Yamato was still staring at him in the eyes looking right through his soul, and saw his body in a position as if he had just kicked a football to score a goal while staring at the goalkeeper at the bar.
When Yamato swiftly moved his whole body to his right, he launched his feet and kicked heavily into that guard's leg which caused the guard to go off balance. Yamato swirled his whole body with the kick he just dealt, while he was in mid-air he once again launched a kick with unimaginable strength right in the middle of the stomach of the guard.
While the guard was still in his Slow-Mo world, he saw something coming towards him with incredible speed. He couldn't predict the strength of the impact he would receive once it hit his body. His body automatically reacted to the speed and the guard lifted his arms to shield himself and embrace the impact.
Yamato saw the guard putting a shield by lifting his arms to lessen the kick's impact but Yamato's kick never reached his shield. Instead, Yamato's kick made an impact right on his stomach that wasn't muscular and hard enough to stand the Kick of Yamato. Which made the guard go flying and crash through the door he was guarding and get right into Shintaro Dono's Office room.
Yamato slowly walks through the crashed door, while Shintaro is frowning staring at Yamato and seeing him walking closer to him.
As Yamato entered the room he noticed two more people sitting on the couch.
"What do you think you are doing Yamato," Said Shintaro Dono with e firm voice.
-I should be the one asking you what you think you are doing.
Yamato takes out the Paper that was stuffed in his pocket and throws it at Shintaro's face.
"This is the work that is assigned to you Yamato, and this is the ticket to your freedom as well" Shintaro looks at Yamato while frowning.
- How dare you even think I would do such a thing just because you have ordered it to. Said Yamato
"It's because I am your boss, and you have to do exactly what I tell you to, or else you will end up in a very sorry state Yamato" Shintaro intertwined his hands as he rested his elbow on the desk and rested his face behind his hand while staring at Yamato.
Yamato stands before his desk
- Don't push your luck... Shintaro
"Don't you think you are being a bit too carefree in here and in my office? In this very building which is filled with Special Forces that can detain you and kill you on the spot and no one will ever know that you have died" - Shintaro grins
The two people who were sitting on the couch slowly walked behind Yamato. The guard who was beaten up by Yamato was still lying unconscious on the floor.
"Oh, I forgot that you don't have anyone else now, since your wife just died in a very unfortunate way. Which is very saddening Yamato. But.. you see she was a FINE PIECE..."
The moment Shintaro said those words, Yamato got onto his desk and choked his throat. Immediately dragged Shintaro's head onto the table, as he took a pen from the desk and stabbed his cheeks with the sharp needle end that pierced through his cheeks and his tongue. He then started to stab multiple times while Shintaro's whole body was in a futile try to escape from Yamato's grip. The two people that were behind him grabbed his arms and was pulling them from Shintaro's body. They couldn't even budge him.
Yamato was in his rage state, once his rage met the endpoint. Yamato dragged the pen right from Shintaro's mouth, causing his whole mouth and cheek ripped out. The two people who were trying to pull Yamato away from his body managed to throw him off.
But they were too late as Shintaro died on the spot due to excessive blood loss and pain. His whole mouth was ripped as well as the tongue.
"What the fuck is wrong with this mother fucker..!" said one of them
Yamato slowly got up while holding the pen that ended the life of Shintaro, which was covered with blood. He looked at those two.
-Which Family do you two belong to?
One of the guys in front of Yamato screamed at him and said
"WE ARE FROM THE HAJIME FAMILY! YOU CRAZY BASTARD YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO GET OUT OF THIS BUILDING ALIVE!!!"
Soon the remaining forces that were residing in the building swarmed over to the floor where Shintaro's office was and heard the ruckus going on there. The doors were jammed with forces armed with police batons, tactical knives, and 9mm pistols.
Yamato was surrounded by them....
[1 hour ago] ON THE WAY TO THE SPECIAL FORCE HEAD OFFICE -1st DIVISION TOKYO
Yamato was on his way to the Special Force Head Office in Jin's car. Jin was driving. While Yamato was sitting back Kajuwa was in the front seat.
"Sir, why are still working under that Shintaro guy," said Kajuwa
- I am working under him only because he said he would help me clear out my name and trace it out from the whole of Japan..
"But.. It seems like he didn't do as he said he would.." said Jin
"Also he has connections to Dono Clan.. as his last name is Dono... Could it be that, the Dono clan is involved in Mistress Mur---- " As Kajuwa was talking Jin signals him to stop his sentence right there
- ....That is why am going in there to talk it out..with Shintaro..
Yamato was looking out the window.
- Did you place everyone on the whole Shibuya District Kajuwa?
"Yes Chief, I have instructed my battalion. They have already been placed in their position and have already blended amongst the civilians" Kajuwa replied.
Yamato Nods.
- Jin what about you?
"Everyone is ready, sir" As he was speaking all of them arrived at the Office.
"I and Kajuwa will wait here, I have told everyone in the battalion to gather at this place"
Yamato and his subordinates get out of the car.
-Once all of the troops are here, barge into the office.
Hearing this Kajuwa and Jin got startled.
"Pardon, Chief?" Said Kajuwa.
-I feel like I might cross with some bodies today
