The addition of the Sankou Group and the Zhulian Gang preceded this.

Lin Dong's subsequent incorporation work went much more smoothly.

In the island nation, the Yamaguchi-gumi is the most powerful, controlling almost all of the country's flour, gambling, and entertainment businesses.

Kobe Geino, which has made countless Japanese teachers famous, is actually a subsidiary of them.

In the past two years, they have begun to collude with officials of all ranks throughout the island nation to aggressively enter the real estate industry and make a fortune.

"Everyone, please introduce yourselves. I'll give you two choices: one, death; two, surrender to the Dragon Gang!"

Lin Dong's voice wasn't loud, but to the gang leaders below, it sounded like a terrifying death knell.

They knew in their hearts that they had run into Lin Dong's gun today.

My fate is sealed; there's no point in struggling.

unless......

You're really not afraid of death.

"Boss Lin, I am Nishiguchi Jinnan, the president of the Zhuji Society. I am willing to lead all the remaining members of the Zhuji Society to submit to the Dragon Gang!"

"Boss Lin, our Daoteng Society is willing to submit to the Dragon Gang!"

"Our Yakuza Society is also willing to submit to the Dragon Gang!"

"Matsuno would be willing to join!"

"And our Fukuhara gang..."

......

Soon, inside the Hall of Loyalty, all 32 large and small gangs representing the island nation's underworld declared their allegiance.

The Dragon Gang's power expanded rapidly once again.

It has become the largest criminal organization on Earth.

Lin Dong's loyalty is going to keep him busy...

...................................

At this moment, at the intersection of Shinwagen-gai Street in Kobe's Higashi Ward.

Dozens of special riot control vehicles, which had been on high alert, finally received the order to surround the Kobe garden.

On the other side of the street, more than 2,000 Self-Defense Force soldiers, each carrying an automatic rifle or submachine gun, approached the Kobe Garden in orderly steps.

Sixteen Type 90 main battle tanks and 52 infantry fighting vehicles rumbled into the air.

At the gate of the Kobe garden, the fierce gang shootout has ended.

It's time for these regular troops to step in and suppress the rebellion.

Five minutes later, special riot control vehicles surrounded the main entrance to the courtyard.

The more than 200 gangsters standing guard outside the door had never seen such a scene before.

They all retreated and hid in the courtyard.

They kept the doors tightly shut and didn't go out.

On an open ground 300 meters away, 16 Type 90 tanks were arrayed in an offensive formation, with the dark muzzles of the light and heavy machine guns on the infantry fighting vehicles pointed at the courtyard ahead.

....................................

"Report! We're surrounded by Kobe SWAT officers and Self-Defense Force personnel!"

A leader dressed in black rushed into the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness in a panic.

Tomoko Yamada frowned slightly and waved her hand.

Aze, who was next to her, understood and raised his fist overhead, then opened his fist, making a gesture that outsiders would not understand.

Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps echoed through the empty Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness.

Their voices could be heard, but their faces could not be seen.

The black-faced ghost troops, who had been hiding in the hall, made their move.

"Long Si, leave a small team here to keep watch. You take the rest of the others and guard the back door," Aze instructed, turning around.

"Received!" Long Si replied.

Immediately, Long Si sent 20 gunmen to stay in the Hall of Loyalty and Righteousness, while the others followed him to the back courtyard.

Having just completed his conquest of the island nation's underworld, Boss Lin is currently preoccupied with the "troubles" of increasing loyalty and is not paying much attention to the outside world.

The Self-Defense Forces have arrived?

Good, I was just looking for an excuse to kill someone.

You guys actually delivered it to my door?

This is exactly what I wanted!

An energy wave, forming a shield, flew out from Lin Dong's mind and instantly enveloped Aze, who was about to step out of the hall.

Aze's figure mysteriously disappeared before everyone's eyes.

[Ding, Loyalty upgrades are complete. Number of people upgraded this time: ...]

....................................

The Prime Minister's Office in Tokyo.

Senbon Taro had just finished meeting with the fire chief and gave him a good scolding for his poor performance in fighting the fire.

The three chief ministers standing beside him didn't dare to utter a sound.

The Emperor was furious because the Shizuku Shinto (Imperial Toilet) was bombed.

The raging fire burned for more than 40 minutes without showing any signs of abating.

The dry weather, strong winds, and the extensive use of wood in the Jingguo Sacred Toilet rendered the 60 fire trucks that arrived unable to reach the scene.

The high-pressure water sprayed out instantly turns into water vapor under high temperature.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?!"

Frustrated, Senbon Taro grabbed a porcelain cup from the table and angrily smashed it on the ground.

"Bang! Crash!"

The cup shattered into dozens of pieces.

"Your Excellency, based on our on-site intelligence analysis, the fire caused by this explosion was likely caused by a large amount of TNT and incendiary bombs."

Home Minister Ryo Shimizu explained cautiously.

"TNT? Incendiary bomb? Who has such audacity?"

Senbon Taro's anger intensified.

The controversy surrounding the return of cultural relics, which plunged the country into chaos with "zero-yuan purchases," has barely subsided when this new incident occurs.

It should be understood that the existence of the Jingguo Divine Toilet is a spiritual haven for these politicians.

Now it's been ruined by people of unknown origin!
