The person who spoke was an old man in his sixties who was kneeling at the front. Ye Feng did not know him.
However, he recognized the person kneeling at the back of the crowd. It was Takeda Shikake, whom he had seen at Kyokyu-nam that day.
From the position of these people kneeling, one could roughly determine their status in the Yamaguchi-gumi.
Takeda Shikake’s status should be the lowest among these people.
Ye Feng retracted his gaze and looked at the old man who spoke. “What are you talking about? Why don’t I understand?”
The old man raised his head and pleaded, “The people of the Fortune Dragon Society are now massacring our Yamaguchi- gumi. Please have mercy and let them stop.”
“If you have any requests, we will do our best to satisfy them.”
Ye Feng changed to a comfortable position and leaned against the headboard. “The people of the Fortune Dragon Society slaughtered you, then go find them, why are you looking for me? I’m not from the Fortune Dragon Society.”
The old man had a long face. “Mr. Ye, don’t joke with us. Who doesn’t know that the Dragon Fortune Society listens to your commands?”
Ye Feng shrugged. “It was indeed me who asked them to attack, but they have already gone crazy. Even if I ask them to stop, they might not listen.”
The old man saw that he was still trying to find an excuse. He was furious. “Ye
Feng, are you really going to kill our Yamaguchi- gumi?”
Ye Feng saw that he was furious, and his expression turned cold. “It was your Yamaguchi-gumi who came to find trouble with me time and time again. If I did not have some strength, I would have died under your Yamaguchi- gumi’s sword, right? Now you know fear? Where did it go earlier?”
The old man immediately softened when he saw his unyielding attitude. That was all because Yamamoto Takeshi insisted on his own way. Now that he’s dead, it’s time to write off the grudges between us.”
Ye Feng laughed coldly. “Pushing all the blame onto a dead person, your
Yamaguchi m gumi is really shameless.”
“The instigator was indeed Yamamoto Takeshi, but do you dare say that you guys didn’t add fuel to the fire?”
The old man was speechless. The one who decided to kill Ye Feng was indeed Yamamoto Takeshi.
However, they did not raise any objections and even encouraged him.
Because in their eyes, Ye Feng would definitely die this time.
However, they never expected that not only did the other party not die, but he even counter-killed the Yamaguchi- gumi.
“We did go too far in the past, but now we have paid the price we deserve. Please be magnanimous and let us off this time,” the old man said in a pleading tone.
This time, Ye Feng did not speak immediately. He pondered for a moment before continuing: “It is not impossible for me to let you go, but you have to fulfill a request of mine.”
The old man’s eyes lit up. “Tell me. As long as we can do it, we will be satisfied.’
Ye Feng smiled. “Don’t worry, my request is actually very simple, that is… the upper echelons of the Yamaguchi- gumi are going to have a big blood change.”
The old man was stunned. He did not understand what he meant. “What do you mean… Big blood change?”
The others also looked at Ye Feng in confusion.
Ye Feng’s gaze swept across them. “You are all old, you should have abdicated long ago.”
“I think it’s better to get some young and energetic people to come up. Only then can the Yamaguchi-gumi be reborn.”
The Yamaguchi- gumi higher-ups immediately exchanged glances.
They were all old foxes. They naturally understood what Ye Feng was implying.
They would not believe that Ye Feng had good intentions and was thinking about the future of Yamaguchi- gumi.
It was most likely that he wanted to support the puppets within the Yamaguchi- gumi so that he could control them easily.
“Mr. Ye, we’ve indeed been trying to support the young leaders over the years, but this kind of thing can’t be done overnight. We have to think about it carefully.” The old man still wanted to play dumb and fool this request.
But Ye Feng was not that easy to fool. He immediately sneered: “Since you don’t agree, then pretend I never said anything.”
“Then let’s see if you can hold on until the day when we’ll think about it.” After saying that, he closed his eyes and did not speak again.
The higher-ups of the Yamaguchi- gumi immediately started whispering and exchanging their opinions.
“l think… At this point, we can only agree to Mr. Ye!s request.”
“Yeah, isn’t it just abdicating? I’ve long felt that I’m unable to do what 1 want.
It’s a good time to hand the burden to the young man.”
“Can’t you tell? Mr… Ye obviously wants to support the puppet and achieve the goal of controlling the Yamaguchi- gumi. How can we agree?”
“When one is under the eaves, one has to lower one’s head. If we agree now, we can still get the status of an elder. In the future, the martial arts world will have to give us face. If we don’t agree, we’ll probably die without a burial place when the Yamaguchi- gumi is destroyed.”
“That’s right, we have a lot of enemies. If the Yamaguchi-gumi is really gone, we’ll be hacked to death on the streets in minutes…
After a heated debate, everyone finally reached a consensus.
The old man sighed and looked at Ye Feng again. “Mr. Ye, we have already discussed it and agreed to your suggestion to change the leadership of the Yamaguchi- gumi. I wonder if you have any candidates for reference?”
This old fellow’s words sounded nice, but in truth, he wanted Ye Feng to appoint a candidate.
Ye Feng saw that he knew what was going on. He immediately nodded in satisfaction. “Actually, I think Takeda Shikake is not bad. What do you guys think?”
Kneeling at the back of the crowd, Takeda Shikake suddenly raised his head, unable to believe his ears.
With his position in the Yamaguchi-gumi, even it all the higher-ups were dead, it would not be his turn to take over the position.
In fact, the Yamaguchi-gumi higher-ups came to ask for peace with Ye Feng today, with his status, he was not qualified to come.
But because he had met Ye Feng before, he might be able to exchange a few words with him, thus he was brought here.
He did not expect to encounter such a good thing that fell from the sky.
When the other upper echelons of the Yamaguchi- gumi heard Ye Fengs suggestion, they had troubled expressions on their faces. They were obviously dissatisfied with this candidate, but they did not dare to say it out loud.
Ye Feng took in everyone’s expressions, and he snorted coldly. “What? Do you have any objections?”
Seeing that no one else spoke, the old man could only speak again, “Takeda
Shikake is still inexperienced. If he were to take over the Yamaguchi- gumi,
I’m afraid… Isn’t that inappropriate?”
Ye Feng looked at the others. ‘Do you have the same opinion?”
The others nodded.
“That’s right. Although Takeda Shikake is considered outstanding, he has only joined Yamaguchi-gumi for less than two years. I’m afraid he won’t be able to convince the public.”
“The Yamaguchi- gumi is the largest gang in Japan, with hundreds of thousands of members. How can it be handed over to a young man without any qualifications?”
“Takeda Shikake has already been made an exception to be promoted to his current position. How can he be the president? This is too childish.”
“Mr. Ye, please retract your order…”
Ye Feng heard their objections, and the smile on his face grew wider. “Since you all are against it, then I will choose him.. It has to be him!”
