"President!" Harano looked dejected.

"Alright, don't be discouraged." Kato Takashi sighed and said, "We'll talk about it when we get back."

"Yes!" Harano nodded.

Although he spent ten million US Dollars, Kato Takashi had no regrets. Compared to his own life, ten million US Dollars was nothing.

After returning to Fuchuan Hotel, several important figures of the Triad gathered at the hotel.

Kato Takashi stood in the office, in front of him were more than a dozen people who had just been released from the fishery. They were all key members of the Triad, yet they never thought they would fall to such a miserable state. It truly felt desolate.

"You are all the backbone of the Triad." Kato Takashi chuckled bitterly, "I didn't expect something like this to happen. Was it our negligence or because we underestimated the enemy?"

"President." Harano lowered his head and said, "Mainly, the enemy was too cunning."

"Nonsense!" Kato Takashi scolded angrily, "What do you mean the enemy was too cunning? I think it's you who are incompetent, right? The Triad, over 500 people, yet you're not a match for the Jvyi Gang? It's truly laughable. The Chinese whom you once bullied and looked down upon are now overtaking you. I wonder how you all feel inside?"

The group of people lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

"President." Harano gritted his teeth and said, "Gather the brothers from Kobe, Osaka, and the Capital City."

"What do you plan to do?" Kato Takashi asked.

"The hatred between us and Jvyi Gang can't be easily resolved," Harano gritted his teeth and said, "They killed over two hundred of our brothers, and now, we can't even find their bodies. It's not befitting of a man not to avenge this grievance."

Kato Takashi squinted his eyes, not immediately denying Harano's statement.

After all, the Triad still had considerable power in Southwestern Japan. If they gathered brothers from Osaka, the Capital City, and Kobe, they could barely muster up a thousand people. With such a numerical advantage, they should have a huge advantage over Jvyi Gang. However, Kato Takashi always felt something was off.

After thinking for a long time, Kato Takashi seemed to develop a certain resistance towards Jvyi Gang, and there's a sense of fear in him, which seemed to have been there from the start. He's uncertain whether to engage in a full-scale war with Jvyi Gang.

"President, what do you think?" Harano asked.

"Let me think about it!" Kato Takashi gritted his teeth and said.

Using the full strength of the Triad to fight the opponent head-on, this almost reckless approach seemed somewhat insane. Kato Takashi, now older, had developed some fear of death. When people reach a certain age, they start fearing death tremendously. If it were the younger Kato Takashi, he might have called his brothers without hesitation, but after all, he had aged.

Shinsaibashi District.

At the Bamboo Union Gang's headquarters, Li Songhua and others gathered together. The long-calm waters of Fukuoka City were stirred by the arrival of Lin Chuan. It seemed to have plunged the whole city into chaos. First, the Hundred Rivers Association was driven away, and now there were reports of the Triad being massacred, and Kato Takashi being captured by Jvyi Gang.

In this way, the Bamboo Union Gang, being Fukuoka's top gang, naturally became a bit anxious.

"Big brother, we need to be cautious about this matter," said a disciple anxiously.

"Hmm!" Li Songhua nodded and said, "I know about this. Lin Chuan wouldn't necessarily start a war with us."

"Big brother, the existence of Jvyi Gang will inevitably become a huge hidden concern for us," the disciple said worriedly.

"Indeed, in just a few days, Jvyi Gang wiped out Hundred Rivers Association and slaughtered the Triad. I think next they might target us."

"Big brother, we absolutely cannot allow anyone who poses a threat to us to exist."

Many brothers suggested teaming up with the Triad to take action against Jvyi Gang, while others wanted to directly launch an attack. The idea was to destroy them while they were unprepared and slaughter them. After all, having a strong rival nearby would always threaten their own interests.

Li Songhua thought for a long time but still didn't make a decision.

"Tonight, I'll pay a visit to Lin Chuan." Li Songhua said, "I'll gauge his intentions. If he holds any malice against us, we must eliminate him. If he has no ill intentions towards us, then why should we lose a powerful friend and create a strong enemy?"

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

That evening, Li Songhua took a driver and two brothers to the Fukuoka Fishery.

At night, with the cold wind blowing, the gates of the fishery opened, and bright xenon lights illuminated the docks. Fishing boats returned, and people were busy unloading the cargo. At the entrance of the fishery, several disciples were on guard. The sudden appearance of Li Songhua left them dumbfounded.

"Li... Boss Li is here." These workers, having been in Fukuoka City for years, knew Li Songhua well. Not only was he a leader of the Bamboo Union Gang in Fukuoka City, but he was also a representative of a certain social welfare organization in Japan. Thus, he often appeared on television, and many people remembered his image.

"Don't just stand there, move aside!" a young member scolded.

"Yes, yes!" The guard could only step aside.

The group was too scared to make a sound. One person quickly rushed towards the office area.

At this time, in the office area, Lin Chuan was discussing Jvyi Gang's next strategy with Zhou Kai and others. The Triad had already been beaten down by Jvyi Gang and was certainly not a match for Jvyi Gang with their remaining forces in Fukuoka. So, they were not worried about the Triad now. As for whether the Triad would gather all their forces to find trouble, Lin Chuan was not worried. Given that Kato Takashi was willing to pay a ransom of ten million US Dollars, he basically didn't have the guts to do it.

"Boss, boss!" A fishery staff member hurried over.

"What's the matter?" Lin Chuan asked.

"The leader of the Bamboo Union Gang is here," the disciple said hastily.

Lin Chuan was taken aback and immediately asked, "How many people did he bring?"

The disciple quickly held up two fingers.

"Two hundred people?" Zhou Kai asked.

"No, no!" the young disciple shook his head.

"Two thousand people?" Lu Dapao was shocked.

"No, no," the young disciple shook his head again and said, "It's two people."

Poof...

Huang Bo sprayed out the tea liquid from his mouth, once again showering Lu Dapao's face. Lu Dapao closed his eyes, with a tea leaf still stuck on the tip of his nose. The scene was ridiculously funny. Lu Dapao took a deep breath, stood up with a 'whoosh,' and roared at Huang Bo, "Damn you, you jerk!!"

"Da Pao, I... I really didn't mean it," Huang Bo shook his head awkwardly, quickly taking out a napkin.

"Get lost!" Lu Dapao shouted in anger.

"Stop shouting! You've already sprayed so much of your saliva on my face," Huang Bo hurriedly wiped the saliva off his face with a napkin.

At this moment, Lin Chuan spoke with a smile, "Let them come in."

As soon as he spoke, a voice came from the door, "Lin Chuan, I came uninvited."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chuan quickly stood up and then walked up slowly to greet him, saying, "Mr. Li, long time no see."

"Haha, Mr. Lin." Li Songhua laughed heartily. The Lin Chuan in his mouth had now become the respectful term, Mr. Lin.

"Mr. Li, please have a seat," Lin Chuan said with a smile.

Zhou Kai and others stood up in succession. When the two gang leaders talked, naturally they didn't have the dignity to sit. The two sat face-to-face. Lin Chuan hurriedly ordered, "Zhou Kai, make tea."

"Got it!" Zhou Kai nodded immediately.

Letting a bunch of men brew tea, their skill was naturally not the best, and Zhou Kai didn't know how to brew tea. He directly threw the tea leaves into the teapot and poured boiling water on them. The tea leaves immediately began to unfold.

Li Songhua sat across from Lin Chuan, a faint smile playing at the corner of his mouth.

"Mr. Li, how come you have time to visit this secluded spot?" Lin Chuan looked at Li Songhua with a smile. Actually, he had a good impression of Li Songhua. Firstly, they were both Chinese; secondly, Li Songhua's first impression was good, and the attitude was rather friendly and humble during their first meeting.

"Can I not come?" Li Songhua held the teacup, took a sip, and then said, "Fukuoka City used to be peaceful. Once you arrived, you immediately stirred up the waters. I'm afraid if I don't come and talk to you, I won't be able to sit stably."

"Haha..." Lin Chuan burst into laughter upon hearing this, saying, "Mr. Li, you're joking. We are just a mere Jvyi Gang, how could we be compared with your Bamboo Union Gang from Taiwan."

Lin Chuan naturally understood Li Songhua's concerns.

So, Lin Chuan shifted his tone and said, "The reason I destroyed the Hundred Rivers Association and slaughtered the Triad was mainly that they were too arrogant, looking down on us Chinese. Look at the Chinese workers in the fishery, all of them were bullied by them."

"Haha..." Li Songhua chuckled wryly and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Lin to be an angry youth."

"Not at all," Lin Chuan smiled lightly and said, "Actually, I'm more of a soldier."

"Oh?!" Li Songhua was startled, immediately showing respect, saying, "I really respect soldiers."

"Mr. Li, if you don't mind, why don't our two gangs form an eternal alliance?" Lin Chuan suggested with a smile.

"Great!" Li Songhua was overjoyed upon hearing this. Actually, he came this time with this idea, but after all, he's a member of the Bamboo Union Gang; the Bamboo Union Gang holds such a high position in the world. If he proposed forming an alliance with an inconspicuous small gang, it would seem not very dignified. Besides, if he proposed an alliance but was rejected by the other party, how would he deal with it? Blow up on the spot? Or leave with his tail between his legs?
