So Fucking Despicable

After speeding all the way, they finally arrived in Chiba. Shinomiya Kai found an open spot and parked the car, and everyone climbed out.

Shinnosuke rubbed his stomach and said listlessly,

"I'm hungry. I didn't eat dinner. Can we find somewhere to eat first...?"

Everyone stared at him in disbelief. Was this guy here to take care of business or go sightseeing?

In the end, they had no choice. If they didn't take him to eat, he would roll around on the ground, wailing and howling, so they could only let him have his way. Shinomiya Kai, meanwhile, wore an expression of utter disbelief. Why had he lost to an idiot like this...?

Shinnosuke found a ramen shop and dragged everyone inside. He ordered two extra-large bowls of special ramen for himself alone and slurped them both clean!

When it was time to pay, Shinnosuke pointed the owner toward Shinomiya Kai, then turned and walked out of the shop.

A short while later, Shinomiya Kai came out too, veins bulging on his forehead. He grabbed Shinnosuke by the collar and said through gritted teeth,

"Why do I have to pay for your meal?!"

Shinnosuke just pouted, unconcerned.

"Don't be so stingy. You're the young master of the Kyokusei Association. Surely you don't care about a little money like that..."

"Are you kidding me? I only get ten thousand a month in spending money! You just ate seven thousand in one meal! I only have 3,000 yen left, and it isn't even the middle of the month yet!"

With that, Shinomiya Kai dropped to his knees, looking utterly dejected. Even the light had gone out of his eyes...

"Hey... this isn't like you..."

"I'm tired... let it all be destroyed..."

The corners of the other three's eyes twitched, while the culprit shamelessly asked him for a cigarette...

A short while later, Shinnosuke had a big lump on his head and a cigarette in his mouth, which he smoked with satisfaction.

"Ah, a cigarette after a meal beats being an immortal. Burp~"

The other three hurriedly held back the enraged Shinomiya Kai. Shinnosuke flicked the ash from his cigarette and turned to him.

"Oh, don't get so worked up. Think about it: the Silver Dragon Society must have money! We've got to squeeze a million or ten million out of them this time, right? Then all your pockets will be bulging..."

After saying that, Shinnosuke saw the light gradually return to the four men's eyes... He didn't know if it was his imagination, but Shinomiya Kai seemed to have drooled just now...

"Brothers, let's grow bigger and stronger! Let's make glory again!"

After Shinnosuke's relentless brainwashing, everyone's eyes were like those of hungry wolves. There was no longer any reason they could find to lose this battle!

The five of them marched down the street with imposing momentum. Even the delinquents on the street had to go around them. They couldn't help it; these guys were too intimidating! Two seconds of eye contact was enough to make their legs go weak.

Two figures in blue school uniforms, one tall and one short, froze when they saw Shinnosuke and the others. The shorter one, whose hair was parted down the middle, spoke up.

"Brother Imai, those guys don't look easy to mess with. They're all unfamiliar faces, too. I've never seen them before."

The tall Imai, whose face was covered in scars, laughed and said,

"Haha, yeah, Tanigawa! Those guys look strong! But I'm still the strongest! Hahaha... cough, cough."

"Ah, Brother Imai, are you okay? You still haven't fully recovered!"

"Cough, cough... I just... choked on my saliva... cough..."

The five arrived at the Silver Dragon Society's office building. Shinnosuke was still wondering how they should sneak in when Shinomiya Kai rushed forward in the blink of an eye, his eyes full of greed...

"Fuck, this is bad. I brainwashed him too hard..."

Left with no choice, Shinnosuke and the other three followed him. When they entered the building, they found a group of thugs sprawled unconscious on the floor.

"Whoa, Shinomiya sure works fast."

Just then, Shinomiya Kai walked up to Shinnosuke, shook his head, and said to them,

"No, they were already lying here when I came in."

"Could there be someone else here? The Silver Dragon Society sure has offended a lot of people..."

The five then took the elevator straight to the main meeting room. The instant they stepped into the reception room, they froze, and the room fell silent.

A tall man in a suit stood in the middle of the room. He was none other than Tsukikawa, the young master of the Silver Dragon Society!

Two strangely dressed men stood in front of Tsukikawa. The moment Shinnosuke saw them, he cried out in surprise!

"Whoa! You're those two guys from last time!"

They were the strange pair Shinnosuke had met by the river, the one with curly blond hair and the one with a sea urchin head!

The blond man glanced at them and said to the sea urchin head beside him,

"Hey, Ito, who are these guys?"

Ito, the sea urchin head, was also taken aback.

"How should I know? I don't know them. But these guys don't look ordinary either."

The men with Shinnosuke were also very curious.

"Are they acquaintances of yours, Big Brother Shinnosuke?"

"No... I just ran into them by chance before. I don't know how strong the sea urchin head is, but that blond guy is strong!"

While the two sides eyed each other suspiciously, Tsukikawa, standing between them, couldn't hold back any longer!

"Hey! You bastards! Are you ever going to shut up?!"

His face flushed red with anger, Tsukikawa pointed at Shinnosuke and his group.

"Where did you pieces of trash come from? Forget it, I bet you're here to cause trouble too! I'll deal with you after I've taken care of them!"

Shinomiya Kai and Inoue Ryushi, the two most hot-tempered members of Shinnosuke's group, immediately stepped forward when they heard him.

"Hey! What the hell are you spouting?! I'll kill you, bastard!"

The blond member of the strange duo also spoke up, looking displeased.

"Hey! What the hell are you guys here for, huh? I finally came up with such a cool way to make my entrance! And you interrupted me before I even got started!"

Tsukikawa, standing between them, flew into a rage and swung a punch at the blond man!

The blond man nimbly dodged the blow and made a provocative gesture.

"Hey, gorilla. Never mind those guys for now. I heard you beat my partner Ito using only your left hand. Then I'll fight using only my left hand too."

Tsukikawa sneered at that and gave him a fierce look.

"Fine. Go ahead and try!"

The blond man then threw a punch, which Tsukikawa caught!

"With a punch this light, you—"

Before he could finish, the blond man brought out his right hand and pounded Tsukikawa's face, sending blood spraying from his nose!

"Hiss..."

Seeing this, Shinnosuke and the others sucked in a sharp breath. This guy was so fucking despicable!
