"Are you okay, Masa?"
As Masa washed his hands, he received a phone call from his father, Hayami Katsumasa.
"Yes."
"That's great. It isn't too late."
"Is it an assassination?"
"...had they attacked you?"
"I just killed them, so help me to clear them up."
"I will send people right away."
"By the way, is that person?"
"Yes."
"What did you do?"
Masa wondered why someone would want to erase Hayami, even though this guy should be the villain.
As a villain, shouldn't Hayami be the one who attacked the others?
Yet, why were Hayami and he the ones who were attacked by him?
"Nothing."
"Nothing?"
"Yes, you know that I have helped you to take care of the business, right? And, if there is a reason why they did this..."
"Is it because they are afraid?"
"Yes."
As the two thought so, Masa and Hayami snorted, thinking that their opponents were too shitty.
"I will quickly send someone to blow them up now." Hayami was so angry when he thought about how his opponent didn't play according to the rules, but this also showed that they were desperate.
"No, it's fine. Just let your force stay with you."
"Huh?"
"There will be someone who will betray you later, so just protect yourselves. I can handle this myself."
Masa felt like, instead of him, the one who would be in danger would be his father, Hayami. While this guy was evil and had done many horrible things to many people, Hayami had helped him a lot, and even an evil guy like him treated him in a good way.
More importantly, while it was quite wrong of him to say this, Hayami's existence was useful to him.
If Hayami died, it would be so troublesome for him.
"...be careful."
"Okay."
As they finished their conversation, the two thought that they should enter the communication industry and send their own satellites so no one could spy on them.
Still, as they finished their call, Masa sighed helplessly, thinking that the protagonist group would definitely attack him, and this was their attack.
The Kengan Competition was where the leaders of all the business owners competed to get the position of leader of the business group in this country.
While his father might not be the leader of the Kengan Association, the organization that led the Kengan Competition, he had a great influence and had a powerful circle within the organization, as his power as the power supplier for the country wasn't for nothing.
If one wanted to do business, whether they wanted to or not, they could only follow Hayami's words.
However, as Masa also joined, their power also grew, and no one could stop them anymore.
Even if the Kengan Association existed, in the end, it was nothing compared to the mighty power that was held by Masa and Hayami.
A story where everything is determined by an underground fight?
Don't be kidding!
The strong will own everything.
Masa was also about to take over a bank, which made the leader of the Kengan Association, who had been assigned to carry out this assassination, wish to kill him.
In the end, a person was like this.
Originally, this leader might say that it held the Kengan Ashura, the competition to hold the new leader of the Kengan Association for fun as he was too bored to stay at the top for so long, but as his position was about to be threatened, he was also afraid that he sent an assassin.
Yet, Masa also couldn't help but look at the assassin with a helpless sigh.
"What a shame."
Black pupils.
This was the trait of a famous assassin family, the Kure Clan, who lived in this country. While it might have said that it was a clan that wouldn't follow anyone and they worked for anyone who gave them money, the head of this clan was the best friend of the one who wanted Masa to be killed.
Still, some wondered how this clan could have lived without worry until now.
After all, how could a clan whose job is to kill others exist in this country?
If there was a reason, Masa could say that it was because this clan was powerful. Just by relying on their body and martial arts, they could continue to exist for thousands of years. Even if they offended someone, no one dared to do anything to this clan, as this clan had so many people, and they had never been afraid of revenge, as this family was strong.
"But under me, you are weak."
Frankly, Masa could just destroy everything if he wished to, but it wouldn't be fun, right?
He wanted his enemy to crawl in fear as they realized their mistakes, begging for forgiveness before they realized everything was meaningless.
It would have been even better if the Kure Clan had betrayed the leader of the Kengan Association, but Masa knew well that it was almost impossible since the relationship between this leader and the Kure Clan head was so deep.
Meanwhile, Masa's father hated the Kure Clan so much that his disfigured face was caused by the head of the Kure Clan in the past.
Looking at the dead body before him, Masa used the power of Yami Yami no Mi, cleaning up all the traces of the dead body, then called Hina Hongou, who quickly accepted.
"Masa!"
"Hina, can you let me borrow one chemical bomb?"
"Sure~!"
"...you don't ask anything?"
"No, but can I follow you?"
"Sure. Get ready."
"Ah, but help me carry it, okay? Also, where do we meet?"
"Just in the parking lot."
"Okay, I will be waiting~! Also, show me your cosplay later~!"
"..."
Masa looked around, wondering whether Hina had been stalking him, watching him from a distance, but it didn't matter since Hina was his woman. She might be dangerous and crazy, but she was fine.
Soon, many people came into the toilet, and all of them had a similar trait, which was black pupils.
While Masa talked with his father earlier, he used his ability to detect all of the assassin members and those who wanted to hurt him, then controlled all of them and made them come to him.
Still, as they came, they were all swallowed by the power of darkness, erased from this world as they were tortured inside his space.
Yawning, Masa felt that this was too easy, he thought, but even so his eyes were sharp, thinking that they dared to hurt that he loved too, so they shouldn't blame him for doing whatever he wanted, but then, thinking of his father, he muttered for a while, and sent a curse to the assassin that was sent to attack his father, killing him there.
Meanwhile, Hayami, who was almost in despair, thinking that he was about to die, was killed by his adopted son, whom he trained to become a killing machine, yet unexpectedly, he was betrayed.
Still as he thought that his life was about to end and many of his memories flashed before his eyes, he felt an intense regret, closing his eyes before he felt a warm liquid on his face, then opened his eyes and saw the adopted son that he wanted to kill was dead with black blood pouring from his orifices.
"....."
Blinking his eyes, Hayami muttered, "Did he learn black magic?"
Still, watching the cruel death of the one who wanted to kill him, he wondered whether he could learn from Masa, too.
