Tokyo Sword Saint Online Dealing

“I’m putting my words here.”

"I, Dong Wenyu, will become the second generation leader of the Dongwen Society."

"If I come to power, everything will remain the same. Any talk of reform is nonsense. I will also share the profits from smuggling with everyone. My elder brother was right about something: profits should be shared, not monopolized. Monopolizing profits will lead to failure!"

I've finished speaking.

"Who agrees and who opposes?"

Chapter 53 Conspiracy

Dong Wenyu's words indeed struck a nerve with the officials present.

They were all leaders of some kind of underworld organization, with anywhere from a few dozen to over a hundred people under them, and they also had to feed their subordinates.

Just now, Dong Wenyu eavesdropped on Dong Wenjue and Dong Wenzhenxi's conversation using some unknown means. They didn't completely believe it, as there was a possibility that it was fake.

However, considering some common signs and symptoms...

The young lady really disliked those dirty jobs and wasn't close to her subordinates.

The chairman has always controlled the smuggling business, not even sharing it with his own younger brother. In the smuggling business, you can't do it without connections. The Dongwen Association's subordinates only recognize Dongwen Jue.

Despite everyone's objections, the chairman insisted on appointing the young lady as "Young Master," which is utterly ridiculous. In the underworld, how can a woman rise to a position of power!

Japanese women already have a low social status, especially in the underworld. Many underworld members treat their wives like playthings and don't care about them at all. Dong Wenju's act of supporting his daughter to rise in rank can be described as defying the world's opinion.

This incident had already aroused dissatisfaction among many middle-level managers, and now, with Dong Wenyu adding fuel to the fire, a noisy discussion broke out in the tea room.

Before long, someone stepped forward.

"Lord Yu, you flatter us. We are grateful that you are willing to speak up for us, how could we possibly object?"

"Although I am unwilling to bear the infamy, my source of income is about to be cut off, and I cannot stand by and watch my subordinates lose their livelihood."

"I absolutely cannot tolerate Dongwen falling into the hands of a woman, not even a young lady!"

"The Dongwen Association is where it is today because of everyone's hard work. Even the president cannot make such a foolish decision because of personal gain!"

"We are willing to follow Lord Yu. We request that the President step down and that Lord Yu succeed as the second leader of the Dongwen Association!"

The words this man spoke were even more persuasive than those spoken by Dong Wenyu.

In a few words, he forcefully used "we" to represent everyone's meaning, and came up with reasons for everyone's betrayal. He also pointed out Dong Wenjue's dictatorial decision, which united everyone in hatred. Finally, he stated that he was following Dong Wenyu. Of course, the infamy of fratricide and betrayal would probably have to be borne by Dong Wenyu, so that the people below would feel less guilty.

Without a doubt, this was a stooge arranged by Dong Wenyu.

This man is Suzuki Hidema, the leader of the Suzuki Group and Dong Wenyu's number one confidant and strategist. Of course, he would cheer him on at this time to boost Dong Wenyu's morale.

As they were speaking, two more burly men stood up near the door. They looked exactly alike, probably brothers, and were nearly 1.9 meters tall. They were so tall and strong that they could almost touch the ceiling of the tea room. As soon as they stood up, they blocked the doorway of the tea room, their eyes sweeping fiercely over the cadres inside, their threat obvious.

This is a combination of soft and hard tactics, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

These two burly men were familiar to everyone present. They were the brothers, Nine Ghost Red and Nine Ghost Green, from the Twin Ghosts Group. They were the leaders of the Twin Ghosts Group, the core martial arts faction under Dong Wenyu. Their battle record was outstanding, and their reputation was earned through countless battles of extreme martial arts.

With this combination of soft and hard tactics, the cadres present immediately made their decisions and basically sided with Yu Dongwenyu.

It's not that Dongwen is unpopular or that he started from scratch. It's that many small and medium-sized gangs gathered together because of their interests, which inherently harbored huge hidden dangers. When interests align, those at the top get the meat, and those at the bottom get the soup. Everyone gets something, and they live in peace.

When interests clash, this is how things end up.

These people don't care who they are loyal to; they only care who can bring them more benefits.

Moreover, Dong Wenyu was not stupid. The Dongwen Society cadres he gathered were mostly inclined towards his own faction, with some neutral parties as well.

He had no intention of informing Dong Wenjue's close associates. Sending them would not only easily lead to unforeseen events, but could also leak secrets and alert Dong Wenjue in advance, which would be disastrous.

Those loyal followers of Dong Wenjue were already on Dong Wenyu's purge list, and he had no intention of leaving a single one alive!

With someone taking the lead, the tea room was filled with compliments from many officials. Dong Wenyu smiled faintly, waved his hand, and the room fell silent.

“I am very happy that everyone is of one mind with me.”

"Time waits for no one. I've decided to talk to my elder brother tomorrow. I've heard that our young lady is going out tomorrow, which is a rare occasion. At that time, one of the two swords under my brother's command will definitely protect her. This is a golden opportunity!"

When talking about Dong Wenjue's "two knives," Dong Wenyu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, a hint of seriousness in his eyes, as if he were facing a formidable enemy.

"Before that, to prevent any leaks, please stay in the place I have arranged and hand over all your communication devices. I will arrange for someone to take good care of you."

"I don't need your help. I have my own methods. Once it's done, you'll be the heroes who saved the Dongwen Society. I always keep my word!"

"Even if things are exposed, you can say that I imprisoned you, and it won't cause you any loss—isn't my sincerity enough?"

"Is there really a problem with you all just supporting me when I become the second generation?!"

Although being placed under house arrest and having their communication devices confiscated made these underworld bosses somewhat embarrassed, it was nothing compared to the tempting rewards.

They originally thought they would be cannon fodder leading the charge, but now they can just sit back and wait for a windfall. Who would refuse such a good thing?

Soon, under the arrangement of the Kuki brothers and Suzuki Hide, the executives present filed out, leaving the tea room empty except for Dong Wenyu.

He sat quietly for a while, then suddenly stood up, pressed a button on the wall, opened a hidden door in the wall, and stepped into a secret room.

This secret room was decorated like a Buddhist temple or a shrine, with a statue of a deity placed on the altar in the center of the room.

The statue appears to be made of jade and is lifelike. It depicts a wild man wearing a kimono but with his upper body removed, exposing his chest. He is looking up into the distance with a disdainful gaze that seems to pierce through the endless void.

Aside from the fact that it has a head, this statue is exactly the same as the one that Yokota worships.

Dong Wenyu approached the statue, his expression becoming more respectful, but he didn't show much sincerity. He spoke softly.

"Your Excellency, everything is arranged. We will take action tomorrow. You promised me that you would help me seize the Dongwen Society. You haven't forgotten that, have you?"

Dong Wenyu muttered to himself in front of the statue, like a madman, his eyes burning with greed, like a starving wolf.

After a few breaths, Dong Wenyu felt his breath catch in his throat, as if even the air around him had become thick. He had difficulty breathing, but he was not surprised. He simply bowed his head slightly to show respect. At the same time, the eyes of the jade statue on the altar turned several times and stared at Dong Wenyu like a living person. In this dark and gloomy secret room, this scene was truly frightening.

Immediately afterwards, a faint, ethereal voice resounded from the depths of Dong Wenyu's heart.

Are you questioning me, mortal?

“I have transformed nearly a hundred of your men into Ritualists. They can easily kill mortals. If you can’t even take over a gang with such power, then you are just too useless.”

This is the voice of ghosts and spirits.

This is a powerful spirit capable of communicating with humans, possessing sufficient intelligence and independent consciousness.

Since mortals cannot see ghosts and gods, there are two possibilities for Dong Wenyu's ability to communicate with them.

First, he is no ordinary person.

Secondly, he drew upon the power of this statue.

Regardless, behind Dong Wenyu stands a true and undeniable demon!

Dong Wenyu didn't take the unfriendly words from that ethereal voice to heart.

"That's good. Then, sir, I'll take my leave now."

"and many more!"

The ethereal voice called out to Dong Wenyu.

"I've done what I promised you, so shouldn't you keep your promise to me?"

"Mortal, you should know the consequences of breaking a contract!"

Dong Wenyu calmly bowed and respectfully replied, "Of course I haven't forgotten that you need a human as a sacrifice, is that right?"

"Please give the word, and as long as it is within my power, I will bring that person before you and offer him as a sacrifice."

The ethereal sound remained silent for a moment before resonating in Dong Wenyu's heart.

"Bring Maki Higashimoto to my altar within three days."

"If you can't do it, hmph."

A cold snort sent a shiver down Dong Wenyu's spine, but he forced a dramatic look of astonishment and opened his mouth wide.

He met the statue's horrified gaze with a surprised look, his voice rising slightly.

"Sir, who are you referring to?"

"Don't you know, sir? Maki is my own niece!"

The ethereal voice seemed stunned by Dong Wenyu's terrible acting, pausing before continuing.

"You're about to personally behead your own brother and seize his empire, what do you care about these things?"

Dong Wenyu took a step back, his somewhat chubby face jiggling with fat, his expression a half-smile.

"Your Excellency may have misunderstood; these are not the same."

"Think about it, it's because my older brother is going to die that Maki will truly be my only remaining family member in this world, my blood relative!"

Dong Wenyu stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, then grinned, revealing his gleaming white teeth. His face was somewhat sinister.

"Sir, about this matter..."

"You have to pay more!"

Chapter 54 The Storm Has Not Yet Ended

Dong Wenyu emerged from the secret room, closed the hidden door, and wore a satisfied smile. Although his clothes were soaked with sweat, he seemed to have gotten what he wanted.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the shoji door of the tea room.

Dong Wenyu's smile faded, his expression turned stern, and he said calmly, "Come in."

A kimono-clad maid entered from outside, her head bowed and her face obscured.

"Lord Yu, the presidents of the Yuan Society and the Shanxin Society have come to visit and are waiting in the reception room."

Upon hearing this, Dong Wenyu's expression shifted slightly. He smiled faintly, nodded to indicate that he understood, and hurriedly left the tea room.

His heavy footsteps gradually faded into the distance, and the tea room returned to silence.

The kimono-clad maid kept her head down until Dong Wenyu's footsteps could no longer be heard, then she slightly raised her head, revealing a somewhat beautiful face.

She stared blankly at the hidden door of the tea room, then suddenly spoke.
