A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 911 A Great Gathering
A call was made from this hotel that very night.
"I need information about Tsukuyomi Tenshin and Sanshin Organization. Send it to my phone in a day."
His deep voice sounded like the deep howl of the wind as it echoed quietly throughout the night air.
"Hmm? Young Master, why do you need that info? Don't tell me you want to..." said the old man worriedly over the phone. He was instantly alarmed.
"Young Master, don't be reckless. Please reconsider this! You might end up having to deal with the only god realm fighter in the world! Dragon God Hall doesn't have a feud with Japan, so there's no sense in provoking them now," the old man kept persuading him.
However, the man was unmoved.
His striking face was calm.
He was like a still lake, and the old man's words failed to cause any ripple in him at all.
"I once promised to see the sights of Tokyo with her. How can I go against my word? I have made up my mind, so stop trying to change my mind. Just do as I say."
Even though his voice was deep, it sounded bright and clear.
His deep voice sounded absolutely resolute.
No one knew about the insane decision the man in the room had just made!
No one knew about the huge wave that was about to unfold in the Japanese martial arts circle.
For years, he rarely cared about anyone else. However, no one could stop him when he did.
Even if she was about to die soon.
But so what?
Since he promised to see the sights of Tokyo with her, he couldn't break his promise.
How could he let the silly girl leave the world with regret?!
Time flew by and many days passed in no time.
It was 1st May.
The new month had just begun, and things were changing.
Tokyo came back to life at the first ray of sunlight after going quiet for a night.
The men continued curling up in bed as they enjoyed their holiday.
The women made dates with their friends to go shopping in the malls.
The streets were packed.
The tourist locations were brimming with people.
The mundane world was bustling with activity.
However, no one in the mundane world knew what today meant to martial artists In Japan.
The sky slowly lit up at 6AM.
Yet there was already quite a commotion at the foot of Mount Fuji.
The night before, all the heads of the six Japanese financial groups received orders from Sword Shrine. They were to send men to help secure the area within a 1000 meter radius of Mount Fuji. All unrelated people were banned from entry!
It didn't matter what status or background they had.
So first thing in the morning, hundreds of luxury cars drove over and gathered at the foot of Mount Fuji.
Mount Fuji was cordoned off with a few thousand bodyguards.
All six financial groups were in charge of ensuring the security of Mount Fuji.
"Grandpa, what is Sword Shrine about? Are they very powerful? Why do we have to take their orders? Don't the six financial groups control Japan?" Chiike Shizuka asked her grandfather. Since Mikawa Group was one of the nation's six financial powers, they had also received orders to send men to secure Mount Fuji.
Chiike Shizuka got off the car dressed in finery.
She raised her head and looked at Mount Fuji towering before her before glancing at the other financial group heads.
All this time, Chiike Shizuka thought that the six financial groups held ultimate power in Japan.
However, Chiike Shizuka unexpectedly discovered that Sword Shrine just had to make one call to make the six financial groups do things for them.
And worse still, they had been given a menial job like guarding the mountain.
Chiike Shizuka couldn't help feeling perplexed.
Miyamoto Nakanosuke said nothing when Chiike Shizuka asked. Instead, Iwai Zen bowed slightly and replied reverently, "Shizuka, since you have just taken over Mikawa Group recently, it's quite normal that you don't know as much as you should yet. In reality, the world is a far bigger place than you ever imagined!"
"In the mundane world, the six financial groups certainly control Japan. In terms of power and wealth, our groups stand at the pinnacle for sure! But even though we have wealth and status, we don't have power. In this world, only the strongest man has true power. Only a powerful man genuinely has control over everything! Wealth and status are useless in comparison to power."
"In that sense, Sword Shrine is the most powerful establishment in Japan! If they wanted, they could have the wealth and status which we crave so badly anytime they wanted. Now, do you understand why the financial groups follow the Sword Shrine's orders?"
Iwai Zen explained things to Chiike Shizuka patiently in a deep tone.
Since Chiike Shizuka was just an inexperienced young girl, it was normal that she didn't know about the greater society.
He didn't expect Chiike Shizuka to understand this only after such a brief explanation.
But to Iwai Zen's surprise, Chiike Shizuka nodded and said, "Oh, I get it. It's like how Mr Chu can make Mikawa Group submit to him, right? It's all because he is a powerful man. Am I right?" Chiike Shizuka smiled as she spoke.
Iwai Zen and Miyamoto Nakanosuke went into a daze. Then they nodded, "Something like that.
"Oh yes. Do you think Mr Chu is still in Tokyo? Will we ever see him again?"
At the mention of Ye Fan, the image of his tall silhouette emerged before Chiike Shizuka.
Time passed bit by bit.
Martial artists from all over Japan had started making their way up Mount Fuji.
Today was the day Tsukuyomi Tenshin returned.
As people of the Moon God, they had to go up to Mount Fuji's peak and kneel to welcome Tsukuyomi Tenshin's rebirth.
The mountain quickly started to bustle with activity as people gathered.
Mount Fuji was one of the three holy Japanese mountains also known as
Furong Peak, Fugaku, or Fuji High Ridge.
This marvelous peak stretched across this part of Japan and existed for thousands of years. It was an icon that belonged to a part of Japanese spirit and culture, just like Tsukuyomi Tenshin. Mount Fuji had been covered in snow all year round for thousands of years.
Seas of people had gathered amid the cold wind and snow!
They appeared like pious believers and subjects of Tsukuyomi Tenshin as they knelt at the peak of the mountain in the snow.
Everyone could see a stunning beauty standing on the mountain peak below the heavens.
