Chapter 100

Letting Sanqianyuan Xue take care of the matter, Ye Yun called Sakura Mai again. &{}..{}

If the fragment of the Kasaya was obstructed, there was no reason for Takagi Shinsha to be easily obtained. Ye Yun originally intended to have Sakura Mai handle it instead of going himself, but to his surprise, a phone call revealed a shocking reaction from Sakura Mai.

"Yan Yunbo, you wouldn't be that Chinese person with the Sasaki bloodline, would you?"

"What... do you mean?"

"Earlier this morning, I received news that a Chinese person with the Sasaki bloodline has already arrived in Japan, aiming to obtain the materials for the Retsu-yo Glove. Although the design plans are not available, everyone knows the four required materials. The significance of the design plans is merely that they can synthesize the four materials. My superiors have already given orders: whether the person with the Sasaki bloodline is a terrorist or a counter-terrorist, it's not our concern, as we are still limited to Japan. However, one of the materials, 'Imperial Family Blood,' is difficult to obtain, and there is a fear that the Chinese terrorist might harm the Emperor. We don't care about the Emperor's life or death, but the problem is that Tokyo is currently in a ceasefire period, and the situation is very unstable. The Emperor is a key figure, and to prevent the boy from causing a Tokyo-wide war, major organizations have jointly ordered to stop him from obtaining the other three materials."

Sakura Mai seemed to be both advising and threatening: "Whether you are that person or not, please be cautious. Once you cause trouble... no one can face the entire Tokyo's police and criminals alone."

"Is that so..." Ye Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Does that mean the black market in Ginza no longer has this material?"

"Yan Yunbo, why don't you understand? Even if that material is available there now, you shouldn't go. Who knows if it's a trap? Killing you might not benefit everyone, but at least it could prevent a potential crisis in Tokyo, so..."

Sakura Mai said with deep meaning, "I will keep what you told me a secret. You shouldn't think about Takagi Shinsha for now. As for whether you are the Chinese person with the Sasaki bloodline, I won't say anything. You can rest assured."

After hanging up, Ye Yun clenched his fist.

He didn't fully trust Sakura Mai's promise to keep his identity hidden. Upon careful consideration, that woman had no reason to help him. Although she gave him many hints, her ultimate intentions were unknown. Ye Yun decided to cut off all contact with her.

As for the Retsu-yo Glove... the four materials he thought he could obtain without much trouble have now become a real headache.

Upon careful reflection, what Sakura Mai said wasn't wrong. Before the main mission at the Hong Kong concert, Ye Yun had read in the "Counter-Terrorism Biweekly" that Tokyo experienced another major event in September. Many elites from both sides were likely involved. Currently, Tokyo is in a ceasefire period. Thus, the concerns of the major factions in Tokyo are understandable. To obtain the Imperial Family Blood, one must target the direct bloodline of the Emperor. If such a major event occurred in Tokyo, even if the Emperor knew the attacker was a Chinese terrorist, the terrorist's identity would still be a concern. To avoid being killed, Ye Yun would have to go into hiding, and the Emperor would naturally question the major terrorist organizations. With the former enraged and the latter denying involvement, a chaotic battle would be inevitable, given the Emperor's divine status in Japan for over a thousand years.

Sighing lightly, Ye Yun realized he only had two options.

Either, take a strong stance and engage in a 1vsn battle; or, lie low and wait for the next major event in Tokyo, then reap the benefits like Cang Xing.

But, do I really need to choose...?

Ye Yun never thought that having the Sasaki bloodline would make him invincible. Essentially, he was still a cautious man who feared death. Moreover, obtaining the Retsu-yo Glove was only to better control the Da Yang Fire. At his current stage, would he really encounter an enemy that he must perfectly control the Da Yang Fire to kill?

The only thing he was eager to investigate was the Third Research Institute that took his uncle. After the Hong Kong concert incident, it was clear that the Third Research Institute would go into hiding, making it extremely difficult to find them.

Deciding to stay in Japan for a while longer, he could refine his strength and wait for the opportunity to obtain the materials for the Retsu-yo Glove.

Comforting himself with some self-deprecating thoughts, Ye Yun relaxed and opened the system's store.

Since a lieutenant is not a pure officer, the system store had only a few new items, but one was particularly useful for Ye Yun.

【初级训练场空间进入劵】: 可进入初级训练场空间修炼，修炼场空间与现实的时间比为3:1，现实时间每小时付费200游戏点数。

【初级训练场空间进入劵】: Can enter the初级 training ground space for training, where the time ratio between the training ground and reality is 3:1, and the cost is 200 game points per real-time hour.

Tokyo, with its high value of land, has many surrounding forests, but the power of the Da Yang Fire is significant. Ye Yun didn't know which organization might pose a threat if he used the Da Yang Fire, so it was better to keep it hidden. Instead of finding a place to train, using this entry ticket was a better option.

After deducting the 20,000 game points he would pay to the Asian Assassin Organization, Ye Yun had about 26,000 game points left, enough to train for 390 hours, or about 16 days, in the初级 training ground.

His bloodline power development was different from others, and each increase in development required a significant amount of time to practice the Sasaki ancient martial arts. Given Ye Yun's strong sense of danger, he would never feel that the training time was too much.

...

Tokyo, Kanda District, the top floor of a building.

This was the headquarters of the second-largest yakuza organization in Japan, the Sumiyoshi-kai. Kanda District, as the center of the highest power in Japan, not only houses the Imperial Palace, the Diet, the Supreme Court, and the Yasukuni Shrine, but also the headquarters of the three major yakuza organizations in Japan.

In the spacious room, heavy black-red curtains covered all the windows. On the north-facing wall, a two-tiered platform about ten square meters in size and half a meter high was surrounded by eight golden candlesticks with vigorous flames.

On the platform, a white tiger skin, almost covering the entire platform, was laid as a 'rug' in the center, with the large, hollow-eyed tiger head placed at the bottom of the platform, facing the entire room.

On the white tiger skin, a man in a black and red silk kimono with an open chest lay lazily, his head resting on the lap of a kneeling beauty in a kimono, enjoying the grapes she carefully peeled with her delicate fingers.

A red carpet with gold and silver borders extended from the tiger's head to the entrance of the large room. On both sides of the red carpet were large, round columns that seemed out of place in a modern building. Below the columns, tall candle stands with bright flames.

The hinged door creaked open, and a beauty in an OL uniform with glasses entered the room. She walked nearly thirty meters along the red carpet and stopped about five meters from the platform, kneeling on the ground. "Sir."

The man with the open chest lazily responded, turned over, and propped his head up with his hand to look at her. "Sakura Mai, how is the investigation going?"

Sakura Mai, with her head bowed, said seriously, "Sir, our people have already contacted the informants in Yokohama last night and confirmed that there is no terrorist named Sasaki Yan Yun or codenamed Yan Yun in the Yokohama area. Since he flew from Hong Kong, and considering the events in Hong Kong a few days ago, it is almost certain that this person is the one the Seven Wolves mentioned."

"Even if the surnames match, we can't conclude that," the man with the open chest said. "Have you forgotten what I said? 'Almost' and 'certain' are not the same."

"Yes, sir," Sakura Mai said. "The boy called me earlier, asking me to help him buy Takagi Shinsha from the 'Nine-Headed Dragon' in Ginza. Considering the battle at Todai Temple last night, I believe he has learned about the Seven Wolves. Both his caution and his purpose indicate that he is the one with the Sasaki bloodline."

"Sasaki bloodline... he will be a troublesome guy if he grows up," the man with the open chest said lazily. "Did you tell him about our conversation last night?"

"I selectively revealed some information. Some of it he already knew, and some of it is what we want him to see."

"You did well," the man with the open chest said. "Try to get closer to him when you have the chance, and help him in battle when appropriate."

Sakura Mai looked up in surprise. "Sir?"

The man with the open chest said calmly, "If he doesn't act, most organizations won't unnecessarily oppose such an unknown future. But the Black Assassins won't let him off."

Sakura Mai frowned. "Sir, if that's the case, shouldn't I avoid getting involved?"

The man with the open chest laughed maniacally, and in the midst of his laughter, he tore open the kimono of the beauty beside him, sucking on her cherry nipple. After a while, he let go, allowing the beauty to angrily stuff an unpeeled grape into his mouth.

He chewed the grape casually and laughed, "You don't understand. This is a matter of 'attitude,' not just for that boy, but for the entire Asian layout."

Sakura Mai gasped. "Even the Sasaki bloodline shouldn't be so significant, right?"

The man with the open chest seemed pleased and explained, "The strongest counter-terrorism game appeared three years ago, and no one knows its origin. Despite the high attention from governments around the world, why do they allow it to develop?"

"Is it because of the mysterious power inside?"

"That's just one part. The real issue is the 'super soldier' competition within each country, such as America's [Bio-Armor Plan], Japan's [Mechanical God Plan], and China's [Extreme Soldier Plan]. These projects, which are either not yet developed or are at a bottleneck, were almost abandoned before the game appeared. The game's emergence provided new ideas for these research teams. Therefore, countries allow the development and opposition of players from both factions and take responsibility for major events."
