Akutagawa Ryunosuke also only appears calm on the surface.

He himself didn't even know why he jumped out when he saw that man... Well, he actually knew why.

But going against the port mafia because of an unfounded, absurd dream sounds really stupid.

He interacted with the brown-haired boy opposite him in an unskilled manner, but his eyes could not help but drift to Dazai Osamu.

About ten days ago, after struggling for survival with his friends and accidentally stumbling and falling to the ground while escaping, Ryunosuke Akutagawa had a series of disjointed memories in his mind.

It’s a bit strange to call it a memory. Rather than a “memory”, it’s more like a “dream” from the perspective of a participant.

In theory, dreams are a projection of human desires. Although Akutagawa Ryunosuke himself rarely dreams, he often hears his friends talk about how they dreamed of sleeping in a pool of wine and women and living a life of debauchery. But he never thought that when he dreamed, it would be the same as before.

Yes, the Akutagawa Ryunosuke in the dream is not wealthy, nor has he any political connections. He is still an orphan from the slums, and depends on his only sister Akutagawa Gin for life.

Even more tragically, in another world, he also lost his sister, Yin.

The dream begins here.

In a dark city like Yokohama, the disappearance of a young girl who already showed the embryo of her future beauty almost foreshadowed her tragic ending.

In order to find his sister, Akutagawa Ryunosuke gave up the place he had squeezed out of the slums, and began to wander in the sinful city, stumbling on the basis of his impression of that man.

During this period, he met all kinds of people, and was finally picked up and taken home by a good-for-nothing. The boy with superpowers was accepted by his "peers" and finally found clues about his sister.

——Port mafia.

The port mafia in the dream is even larger than the current Yokohama tyrant. It is a huge monster entrenched in Kanto and controlling the lifeline of Kanto.

In order to save his sister who was taken away by the leader of the Port Mafia, the boy rushed into the Port Mafia... and finally watched the man fall from the roof of the Port Mafia.

It is hard to imagine what Akutagawa Ryunosuke was thinking at that time.

All we know is that even though he had forgotten almost everything that happened in his dream when he woke up the next day, two things were deeply engraved in the mind of the young Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

First, protect his younger sister Yin.

Second, find that man.

...And then?

Although he didn't know what he would do after finding the man, Akutagawa Ryunosuke struggled to protect Gin.

Although he did not remember much about the dream, he became much more proficient in manipulating Rashomon, his special ability that allowed him to manipulate his clothes and transform them into a hard black beast.

Those non-existent fighting consciousness were like a magnetic card implanted into his brain, giving Akutagawa Ryunosuke the capital to defeat the enemy.

Although the performance was slightly inferior to the glorious record in the dream where a guy who was between a friend and an enemy wiped out a small organization overnight, Akutagawa Ryunosuke still slowly planned, took his sister with him, and fought almost all over the western part of the slums, and carved out a place for the brother and sister.

What, you said there might be retaliation?

Come on, this is a slum.

Without strong power, before being retaliated, you might have become a small ant under the feet of a big man and be crushed when he least expected.

Up to this point, Akutagawa Ryunosuke's life had already become quite different from what was predicted in the "dream", so after a brief hesitation, he gradually put those increasingly vague scenes behind him.

Until today, I saw that man again.

For a moment, Akutagawa Ryunosuke couldn't bear it any longer and stood up suddenly.

But he regrets it now.

If he were alone, Akutagawa Ryunosuke would not accept charity (?).

But there is still my younger sister Xiaoyin.

Because they had provoked the biggest power in the West, the siblings had not been doing well lately and hadn't had any meals to eat.

So after the guy opposite extended the invitation, he hesitated for a moment and acquiesced to Xiaoyin's eagerness to follow.

Even if the other party did not treat them with hostility, this was still very unusual for him.

After all, children in the slums are different from those outside. They have not been nurtured with love and kindness since childhood, but have grown up in darkness and malice. They are incredibly cautious and vigilant towards everyone. There is no reason for them to be led around by the nose by that brown guy who looks easy to talk to and looks like a young master who came out of nowhere after just a few words.

Even if the man who appeared mysterious and powerful in the dream was now wrapped around that person like a ball of seaweed.

But this is too weird.

After noticing the way the two of them interacted with each other, Akutagawa Ryunosuke found it difficult to take his eyes off each other.

I couldn't help but start to recall in my mind whether there was such a brown guy in that absurd dream.

Is there?

Because it was a dream, the young man, whose memory was worn away, couldn't remember clearly whether a brown head had appeared in the dream. After all, everyone's hair was colorful... But there was a flamboyant and bright guy next to the man, who seemed to be his cadre or something.

I don't remember Akutagawa Ryunosuke very clearly.

It seems to be a very bright color, and it doesn't look very tall (hey), so it seems to match the little brown thing in front of it.

Thinking of this, his expression became more serious.

Tsunayoshi Sawada took great pains to communicate with the children.

Knowing that the other party came from the slums and was fleeing from the pursuit of the enemy forces, he stood up after seeing them because he had a grudge against Dazai Osamu.

But he didn't even seem to be very clear about Dazai Osamu's name.

But he was already able to say things like Dazai Osamu was his enemy very skillfully and naturally, as if he had practiced it thousands of times.

Faced with this situation, Tsunayoshi Sawada slapped his head and suddenly found a word that could reasonably summarize this behavior.

Scam.

In an instant, the figure of a guy with long black hair and a knitted hat flashed in front of him, with a hint of red Marlboro, giving Sawada Tsunayoshi a subtle and strange sense of déjà vu.

He was silent for a moment, then again, and finally covered his face helplessly.

"I see."

It was just a scam, he had seen it before.

Akutagawa:?

…

When Sawada Tsunayoshi returned to the port mafia, he finally knew why Dazai Osamu was called by Mori Ogai to find him in the middle of the night.

The port mafia members, who were countless times more hardworking than the lazy Crown Prince (not really), transformed themselves from dark mafia members into construction workers overnight. Some even got the yellow helmets worn by construction workers on the construction site from somewhere and stood at the door to hand them out to the mafia members passing by.

It was as orderly as a port construction site.

Tsunayoshi Sawada felt that his ability to complain, which had been sealed for a long time, had been activated again.

While he was complaining that his fake identity in the future could be said to be a bricklayer in Yokohama, someone stuffed him with a breakfast.

"Good morning, Your Highness Tsunayoshi." The mafia who followed Ozaki Kouyo's call gave him a very un-maifa smile, "Have you had breakfast, Your Highness?"

Of course not.

After separating from the Akutagawa siblings, he took the black-haired boy who was still clinging to him, not knowing whether he was truly unconscious or just pretending to sleep, to the nearest hospital. When the boy was about to say that he didn't want to go to the hospital, he covered his mouth and nose with a smile and personally sent him to the bed.

Dazai Osamu: ...

In fact, he had woken up a long time ago, but he didn't want to talk to the eyebrow-less man opposite him who looked disliked by him, so he pretended to be asleep and threw himself into the pillow in a rare childish manner.

"Okay, I get it. I'll go to sleep nicely." He muttered something about Mama Gangji, like a little kid being urged to go to bed by his mother.

Sawada Tsunayoshi spoke to the doctor gently before coming to take care of the boy who was angry for some unknown reason. Hearing these words, he did not feel offended, but instead showed a look of reminiscence.

Dazai Osamu wrapped himself in the quilt, not accepting the look.

"Are you really some kind of mama-san?" He looked subtle.

Tsunayoshi Sawada repeated to himself several times, "He is still a child," and turned around to let the forensic doctor who had just been selling him a Chinese medicine drink from another country that was said to be very effective but not very tasty, teach the adolescent kid who went into the water with injuries for no reason a lesson.

——Yes, according to the physique of a child with strong vitality like Dazai Osamu, how could staying up late and entering the water turn him into a red egg? Of course, it was because he was still injured when he was sent by the unscrupulous boss to expand the territory last time. He never paid attention to such things, or it was not impossible to die from the infection of the wound. The boy embraced the river again, and after drifting for a long time, he pulled other people's windows in the night wind... Sawada Tsunayoshi felt that this guy was more difficult to deal with than ten Rambos.

After leaving Dazai Osamu to the hospital, he slowly went to the port mafia and prepared to have breakfast in the cafeteria here.

Then I saw the scene I just described.

There are deep spider-web-like cracks on the ground at the main entrance of the port mafia, heralding the arrival of the god who manipulates gravity.

Sawada Tsunayoshi withdrew his gaze with mixed feelings, and casually took a bite of the steamed bun that had just been presented to him, pretending not to notice the gazes coming at him from all directions.

No wonder Dazai Osamu went to his place at night, it turned out that he had reached this planned point.

According to Dazai Osamu's script, Chuuya Nakahara will definitely come to the port mafia building.

In fact, he came here not for Sawada Tsunayoshi, but to conduct a deal and seize the opportunity to slowly expand some "sheep" under the hands of the port mafia.

——Even so, neither Sawada Tsunayoshi nor anyone else thinks that Mori Ogai would ignore these things.

Sawada Tsunayoshi got on the elevator while biting a bun and making a sound - he was glad that this thing was still alive and he didn't have to go up to the 30th floor himself - and deduced what had happened in this building last night.

As I thought about it, I couldn't help but worry whether I would be deceived by the scheming Mori Ogai... Although Dazai and Randou must have taught his inexperienced Odudou a lesson in advance, the innocent and cute little Zhongye is still a little baby, and who knows when he might be deceived by Mori Ogai or some other villain.

I am very worried.

While thinking, Tsunayoshi Sawada arrived at the floor belonging to Mori Ouwai. He threw the discarded plastic bag into the trash can next to the elevator and walked towards Mori Ouwai's office without looking around.

I happened to meet A, who looked unhappy, walking out of the office outside Sen Ou.

The man who always paid attention to his appearance nodded to him rudely and left in a hurry. After a moment's thought, Sawada Tsunayoshi realized that he was probably a little angry because he had to make repairs right after signing the contract... It's great to have such a money bag.

Although the other party may not be very happy about it.

He walked into the room outside Senou while thinking in a mess. As a subordinate, he should salute the leader - the port mafia has a weird feudalism in such a strange place. It is said that this feudal dregs was passed down from the previous feudal dregs, no, the previous leader.

However, as the so-called crown prince, Sawada Tsunayoshi did not need to bow to his "brother" who was the leader.

He slowly stood in front of Sen Ouwai, blinked, and some worry appeared in his eyes.

"Were we attacked by the enemy last night?" The young man looked very worried.

Mori Ouwai was in a good mood because his building was smashed but someone was covering the damage, although he didn't gain any advantage in the confrontation with Lan Tang last night, and he didn't get his favorite little diamond into his arms as he wished. Instead, he reached an agreement with "Yang" to keep out of each other's way... In short, he felt very disappointed.

But the arrival of A made these small losses insignificant.

So he thought about it and nodded.

"It's the Sheep King Nakahara Chuuya," he said, "I think he got angry because I've been a little stressed out about sheep lately."

The man looked very worried.

Sawada Tsunayoshi remembered that the confrontation between the two sides had not yet ended.

However, Mori Ogai did not do this task himself, but handed it over to Dazai Osamu. The same was true for the expansion of the slums, which was also handed over to Dazai by the leader.

He suddenly remembered what the doctor who was in charge of examining Dazai's body had told him about the black-haired boy's malnutrition, long-term staying up late, heavy mind, etc., and even the senior high school student next door who was growing flowers didn't have so many problems, and he couldn't help but frown.

The corporate mafia is so scary.

And Sen Ouwai was also observing his expression.

"By the way, how is Tsunayoshi doing with Momiji lately?" He looked like a caring brother. "I mean, is he adapting well?"

Sawada Tsunayoshi nodded, looking very well behaved.

This posture made Mori Owl curl his eyes outward.

There was an embarrassed look on his face.

"Brother has been very busy recently and has not had time to accompany you, but I still hope that you can integrate into the Port Mafia as soon as possible." He said naturally, "When you grow up, you can take over your brother's position and become the leader of the Port Mafia."

The pair of red eyes were fixed on Sawada Tsunayoshi. Compared to a few years ago, he had experienced something unknown, but he had grown significantly. Mori, the former head of the health department and the current leader of the port mafia, looked more introverted. He looked at his fake brother, spoke softly and patiently.

"How about this, brother will give you the Port Mafia as a coming-of-age gift, okay?"
