It was all so sudden...
Sogo Doma had no intention of mocking him—
Although the guy had said before that he wanted to become prime minister, still...
With nothing but a rundown dojo and terrorist schemes rattling around in his head, rather than wanting to become prime minister, it would be more believable if he wanted to blow up the whole country. At the very least, Sogo Doma believed the man had more experience blowing up countries.
"Well, good luck..." Still, dreams were meant to be had. What if the whole world collectively lost its mind one day and actually let Fake Hair achieve his goal? The odds were even lower than winning the lottery, but anything was possible, right? After a long silence, Sogo Doma could only offer his encouragement.
"Don't underestimate a samurai!" Yet his encouragement did not seem to excite Kotaro Katsura. He had to prove himself. "Sogo, I've already got a somewhat unreliable plan..."
"Somewhat unreliable?" Sogo Doma shot him a glance.
"That's right. As long as I have the support of the Shinomiya Family and the Doma Family—if two of the Four Great Financial Conglomerates support me—then my election as prime minister will have a real chance..."
"Wait, the Doma Family's support?"
"Sogo, you'll support me, right? Support a samurai's dream..." Kotaro Katsura smiled.
Sogo Doma: "..."
He absolutely did not want to, and besides...
"The Doma Family isn't one of the Four Great Financial Conglomerates..." he reminded him.
"Isn't it common knowledge that the Four Great Financial Conglomerates have five members?" Kotaro Katsura retorted.
Sogo Doma: "..."
"Fake Hair, the Doma Family is merely the largest family beneath the Four Great Financial Conglomerates!" he reminded him.
Kotaro Katsura nodded. "I understand. Just like how the Celestial Empire is the largest developing country."
