What, can you eat integrity?

Every zaibatsu in the top one hundred in Japan had clawed its way to the top over the bloody bodies of others.

The other zaibatsu were no exception, and the Qing Tian Clan was no exception either.

Why was the Yakuza allowed to exist legally? Because it specialized in doing the dirty work for the rich. The government could have wiped it out in no time, but after pressure and compromise from various sides, this utterly unreasonable institution had somehow managed to secure a legal foothold.

The headquarters of the country's largest criminal organization had the Police Department for a neighbor. It was probably the only case of its kind in the world.

The third-generation members of the Qing Tian Family had named the suspects. There were more than a dozen families, but with the situation still unclear, all they could do was guess blindly.

Although it was already past midnight, none of the people gathered in the Conference Room felt particularly sleepy.

Qing Tian Juuichirou's phone kept ringing. Before long, he no longer had the energy to take part in discussions with his brothers and instead began issuing orders remotely.

When two behemoths clashed, a struggle between major zaibatsu usually took time to play out. Whether one side slaughtered the other outright or the two sides stalemated, it would take a while.

After the Qing Tian Family successfully repelled the first wave of attacks and moved its direct-line members to safety, the Qing Tian Zaibatsu started running like a giant machine at full capacity. As it poured in more manpower and resources, the attackers' true identities gradually came to light.

Li Bai acted like a proper godson should. If they told him to eat, he ate; if they told him to run, he ran.
