Looking at the five Joker in front of him, Gawain knew that they wouldn't be hiding in the back causing trouble anytime soon.

Because they have revealed almost everything about themselves.

The Joker organization is much, much smaller than the V organization.

Even Furuta Nimura, as the leader of the Joker, held a position in the V organization that was roughly the same as Arima Kishou's.

What is V? It is the ultimate code woven by the Washuu Clan for Tokyo, the complete control of humanity by ghouls, and an insurmountable peak that transcends all ghouls.

Because the highest controller of the V organization is the Washuu Clan, and the core members of the V organization.

Hehe.

The core members of the V organization are actually those investigators who know nothing about it.

Unbeknownst to them, tens of thousands of investigators have become part of the Washuu Clan's schemes.

This sheer size is what gives V organization its true power.

And the Joker.

In Washuu's eyes, or rather, in Washuu Kichimasa's eyes, Furuta Nimura's Joker organization was...

It's just a small gadget that's worth using.

How could he have imagined that the Joker, whom he had both neglected and exploited for so long, who had never been worthy of the stage, would become the knife that killed him?

Looking at Furuta Nimura kneeling on the ground, Gawain took a breath and then gently waved his hand.

"Alright, Furuta Nimura, stand up with your men."

Joker, huh? Heh, don't underestimate yourselves, Joker.

A wise person's fall will be laughed at by countless people, while Joker's fall will bring joy to countless others.

As for you, whether they laugh or laugh, just be yourself.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain waved his hand, signaling the Joker to get up.

Then, he smiled at the investigators who were still standing there from a distance.

"Iwao Kuroiwa, Itsuki Marude, and everyone else."

I have finished what I needed to do here.

Now, I'm leaving the CCG to you. Even without Washuu, is the CCG still the same CCG?

Come on, let's clean up this mess I'm left with.

As for me, well, I have more trouble to deal with.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain stood up, and Arima and Eto naturally followed behind Gawain.

As they passed the dazed investigators, Eto tossed his hair and smiled at them.

"It's such a pity, I really wanted to apologize to you sincerely."

However, I later realized that apologies weren't really necessary.

Instead of foolishly apologizing here, I'd rather hand over a better future to you directly!

Who cares what I did wrong? Hatred is something only a madman in dire straits can't let go of.

In the future, haha, after I and the adults have cleaned up Tokyo.

Even if you guys don't say it, you'll secretly thank us behind our backs, haha."

As they were talking, they left the CCG reception center on their own.

Watching them walk away, the transvestite Nico for a moment before speaking to Furuta Nimura.

"Hey, has he accepted us, or is he not planning to accept us?"

Why hasn't any accurate information been left behind?

If they accept them, then they're planning to help them cut off contact with the Washuu Clan.

If they don't accept it, then all they can do is go to the dressing table and do their makeup before being surrounded.

So what should people do?

Listening to Nico's words, the other Joker also looked at Nico intently, waiting for an answer from Nimura as well.

Making this decision today was really difficult for them, and it would be pointless if it became meaningless.

That would be so difficult for them!

Looking at the worried Nico, and at Bei and Itori who were also focused on the answer.

Furuta Nimura took a breath, then slowly... with a smile, exhaled.

"It's alright now. Let's all go home, cook ourselves a meal, and eat quietly."

Thanks to the Washuu Kichimasa as our gift, our lives were spared for the time being.

Next comes the reckoning, haha, at least they won't be in such a hurry to settle scores with us.

After all, we've pledged our allegiance.

At this point, Furuta Nimura looked at the severed head in his hand, Washuu Kichimasa was still vivid in his mind.

After gently weighing the human head in his hand, Furuta Nimura grinned.

"As expected of the Washuu Clan, even in death they are so useful, hehe."

I really want to kill the rest of them Washuu too. After all, killing them would be a wonderful thing.

Unfortunately, no matter how greedy we are, we still have to leave a few for Gawain.

So that damned Tsuneyoshi Washuu.

We guess we've missed our chance.

At this point, Furuta Nimura casually tossed Washuu Kichimasa's head aside.

Then, he casually walked past the investigators.

Behind him, Uta and Itori walked along, casting meaningful glances at the bewildered investigators.

Our Joker is really pitiful. He's been hunted for over seven years, and now he doesn't even have the right to hide in the shadows and cause trouble.

But you, oh ho ho ho ho, you're in a much worse situation Koby us.

At least our ghosts are efficient; not only will they not die, but they might even be able to hitch a ride with Gawain in the future.

But you CCG...

Hehe~~.

With smiles on their faces, the Joker departed, and then, led by Furuta Nimura, they arrived in Anteiku.

Surrendering to Gawain was just the beginning. Next, the Joker would use his special skills to seamlessly integrate himself into the temporary family formed by the Anteiku and Aogiri Tree.

The world cannot do without Joker, just as Christianity cannot do without Jerusalem.

Meanwhile, Gawain left the CCG headquarters with Arima and Eto.

As they scared away the surrounding reporters, they headed towards the Wataru Washuu residence where Tsuneyoshi Washuu was located.

As they walked, Arima said to Gawain thoughtfully.

"My lord, Furuta Nimura is no ordinary man; his appearance is far too timely."

"Yeah, hehe, Furuta Nimura is really troublesome. I didn't expect even Uta to be one of the Joker."

You know, that guy was originally the boss of 3rd Ward. Even after he was kicked out of 3rd Ward, he was still the boss in 4th Ward.

Most importantly, that guy is a mask maker trusted by countless ghouls. Having created masks for almost 80% of ghouls, he knows the true appearance and identity of almost 80% of them.

In that case, if he hadn't come forward voluntarily, the Joker organization would have already known the hidden identities of the vast majority of ghouls without our knowledge.

Wow, that's some serious energy! It's fortunate they stepped forward!

Eto added a couple of comments from the side, then hugged Gawain's arm tightly and nuzzled him with a happy expression.

In the world of ghouls, there's no such thing as simple liking, and falling in love with someone doesn't happen so quickly.

At this moment, Eto was simply enjoying the sense of security that Gawain provided him even more.

Hearing what Arima and the other man said, Gawain nodded and smiled.

"Indeed, the Joker are very well hidden behind the scenes, but the more they hide, the more it proves that they are not yet qualified to control everything."

Joker with that kind of clout wouldn't stay hidden any longer.

As for now, well, Nimura is indeed quite dangerous, but dangerous people are often more capable.

All I need is his ability, even if it can save me a few minutes or seconds, it's worth using.

As for his slight danger...

Hehe, Arima, I'm not someone with weaknesses.

This isn't boasting or arrogance; I genuinely don't have any weaknesses that he could exploit.

Since that's the case, hehe, at least while I'm around, he'll never escape my grasp!

As they spoke, they bypassed the CCG headquarters and arrived at the Washuu Clan.

Even with countless reporters surrounding them, they all stopped following when they reached the main location!

Even journalists have things they fear, Washuu family was a forbidden zone they would never dare to touch in the past!

As for now.

Just as Gawain and his group arrived, the gate of the Washuu family's residence was pushed open, and a muscular man wearing a suit, but whose wild and untamed temperament could not be concealed by the suit, walked out of the door.

Looking at Gawain and the other two, he glared fiercely at Arima.

"You've really hidden yourself well, Arima Kishou. If you ask me, the master should have killed you long ago!"

While powerful half-humans are indeed rare, we don't need another one of your combatants.

On the contrary, the longer you live, the more likely you are to encounter problems like this now!

As soon as he finished speaking, Muscle-bound Washuu Masataka twisted his fist.

Behind him, accompanied by the sound of him cracking his knuckles, three men, all dressed in black suits, emerged from behind him.

Looking at the four people in front of him, Arima Kishou let out a satisfied breath.

"Washuu Masataka, Washuu Shun, Washuu Tsuneki, Washuu Kiyoura."

Aside from that patriarch, Tsuneyoshi Washuu, the Washuu family's power is truly astonishing.

At this point, Arima shrugged at Gawain.

"My lord, Eto and I can only each deal with one at most."

After all, they were born ghouls, and almost every one of them possessed the power to suppress me and Eto.

It's just that they're not very good at using that kind of power; all they lack is experience.

"Hey, don't let them get too cocky and diminish our own prestige, Arima."

In my opinion, if the two of us work together, it's possible to take on all four of them.

After all, we're the two of us, two generations of One-Eyed King, working together!

As he spoke, Eto completely unleashed his ghoul form!

At the same time, Arima's Owl Quinque collided with Washuu Kiyoura's fist.

What is meant by a born ghoul?

That is, even without engaging in cannibalism, his strength is at the level of the One-Eyed Owl!

As for those guys who continue to communally eat, they'll grow and train afterward.

Anyway Washuu Clan Tsuneyoshi Washuu once had a feat of capturing a Super SSS-class ghoul with strength comparable to the One-Eyed Owl using only their bare hands in human form...

Therefore, even though Arima and Eto tried their best, they were indeed easily suppressed by the three Washuu in front of them.

Washuu Masataka didn't even join the battle; instead, he continued to intercept Gawain's actions at the entrance.

None of them even used the Hakuzan state!

Seeing Washuu Masataka blocking his way, Gawain smiled and nodded.

"In any world where Superman strength is required, wisdom will become a non-essential commodity."

To rise to a high position, no matter how brilliant one's schemes may be, one still needs the most basic strength to back it up.

"And the strength of the Washuu Clan is indeed not bad."

As they spoke, Gawain extended his right hand, Washuu Masataka immediately raised his arms to block.

However, his arms fell limply to the ground in the blink of an eye, and even his forearms had been smashed in two!

With his muscles and bones that offered no protection Haki, how could he possibly block Gawain's hand?

And the next moment.

Gawain grabbed Washuu Masataka by the neck.

Click.

The dead Washuu Masataka was thus tossed aside by Gawain.

In the distance, the five people locked in combat all froze for a moment!

Although Washuu didn't use the Kakuja form, in their eyes, Gawain was just a human in human form!

"Hehe, you were really playing with me yesterday, sir."

With that kind of speed and ability, killing me would only take a moment, right?

Arima sighed, then quickly increased his offensive. Although Gawain didn't need help, he and Eto had to at least show some contribution.

We absolutely cannot let Gawain get entangled with the Washuu Clan!

Just as Arima was locked in fierce combat with no one else, Gawain stepped over the corpse of Washuu Masataka and arrived at the Washuu family's courtyard.

At this very moment, the old man with a full head of white hair and Long-Bearded Elder was pruning the branches and leaves of the shrubs in the yard with large shears.

While trimming, he asked without turning his head.

"Couldn't even stop it for a moment?"

So, Gawain, are you a secret weapon from the East Country, or a top-tier nobleman from Europe?

This is really important to me, because noble blood should not be insulted by weapons.

The essence of the Washuu Clan remains its noble bloodline. Even if I were to die, I could only be defeated by an even more noble surname.

Instead of becoming dust that is worn away between the interests of the two countries.

As they spoke, Tsuneyoshi Washuu put down the large scissors, then wiped the dust off his hands and turned to face Gawain.

Seeing that Tsuneyoshi Washuu was waiting quietly, Gawain clapped his hands and laughed.

"What difference does it make whether it's a noble bloodline or a powerful weapon?"

America capital may not have such noble clientele, but didn't you still kneel before their powerful weapon— the Little Boy?

Often, a noble heritage is indeed derived from Superman.

But don't powerful weapons and strength often represent a future of nobility?

So what are you pretending for?

You're just stalling for time, aren't you?

So who are you waiting for? Are you waiting for your Self-Defense Force?

Or perhaps we should simply wait for the US military stationed in Japan?

At this point, Gawain took two steps forward Tsuneyoshi Washuu in his hand.

Even Tsuneyoshi Washuu, couldn't manage the most basic defense and resistance.

Carrying Tsuneyoshi Washuu, Gawain turned and walked towards the door.

The Washuu Clan may have other hidden bloodlines, but once the patriarch who created and maintained the old rules dies, no matter how hard those hidden bloodlines try, they won't be able to stir up any trouble.

What Gawain cares about now is what Tsuneyoshi Washuu is waiting for.

If it really is US troops stationed in Japan, then Gawain is quite looking forward to it.

After all, he's never fought an aircraft carrier before, haha!
