This statement, like the one about Weiyang Palace above, falls into the category of nonsense.

The headquarters of the Yamahi-gumi was indeed the official residence of a daimyo from Harima Province during the Sengoku period, but that daimyo did not build any tunnels. These tunnels were built by the construction team that later expanded the residence. They took advantage of the foundation work to build these tunnels and drew up blueprints for the entire building.

Oh, by the way, you're probably all familiar with the name of that construction team—it's the famous Gongshumo Construction Company...

And the Gongshumo Construction Company seems to be someone else's enterprise...

But of course, I can't tell Tsuruta Tsuna about this...

Duanmu Ci's expression was serious and his words were righteous: "We should thank that daimyo, Tsuruta-kun!"

Tsuruta picked up his folding fan and waved it lightly, somewhat hesitantly, "A sneak attack, that probably doesn't conform to the samurai code."

Honestly, even the white-robed priest next to him felt like vomiting at what he said. Was it really appropriate for a big shot who controlled one of Japan's largest violent gangs to say such things...? Actually, Tsuruta Tsuna also felt like vomiting, but he was a "considerate" person. "Considerate" people like to put up a facade for themselves before doing "unconsiderate" things. It's like how ancient feudal lords would always issue a proclamation before raising the banner of rebellion, saying that they were not raising an army to become emperor, but to "purge the court of corrupt officials," and that they were actually loyal ministers, Your Majesty!

This can be considered a shared cultural heritage between China and Japan...

Duanmu Ci said very seriously, "A samurai, whether he has a sword or not, always has the thought of killing in his heart. If that's the case, then Bushido is actually the law of killing. Since it's all about killing, why bother to abide by outdated rules? In the samurai world, there is only killing and being killed, there is no such thing as noble morality!"

Tsuruta Tsuna smiled with satisfaction, "You're right, Duanmu-kun."

"It seems that Tsuruta-kun has agreed to this collaboration?"

“Of course I agree!” Tsuruta Tsuna said. “I don’t know what the Yamahi Group did to offend you this time, making you decide to take action, but what does that have to do with me? I don’t want to know the cause and effect, I just want to get the benefits.”

Duanmu Ci said, "Tsuruta-kun is truly a magnanimous man."

Tsuruta Tsuna smiled and said, "What a brave young man! I haven't seen such an outstanding young man in a long time. If I were twenty years younger, we would definitely get along well."

"True friends are not limited by age, Tsuruta-kun." Duanmu Ci bowed slightly, then left the shrine with Wei Yue.

After Duanmu Ci and the other man left, the white-robed priest asked, "If you think they are promising talents, why not try to recruit them?"

Tsuruta Tsuna closed his folding fan and said softly, "The so-called white crane in the clouds cannot be caught by the net of sparrows."

...

...

P.S.: The last sentence means that, like a white crane in the clouds, it cannot be caught by the kind of net used to catch sparrows.
