“…You’re saying the Futabas have been in contact with the Yamashitas for that long…?” replied Suijin who was rightfully surprised. After all, though the two families hadn’t had any conflict in decades, all the patriarchs of the Hanyu family Suijin included had made sure to secretly and consistently keep tabs on the Futaba. With that in mind, how had all the previous patriarchs failed to find out about this?
“… With that said, should we still make a move on the Futabas…? After all, now that we know that they have a good relationship with the Yamashitas, we can’t just cause the Futabas all willy-nilly anymore…” muttered Ryugu who was honestly getting a little worried.
After all, the Yamashitas were exceedingly strong. Truth be told, favonovel.com wondered whether favonovel.com would even be a match for that shuriken throwing old man if they got into a serious battle…
Either way, after thinking about it for a while, Suijin eventually said, “… For the time being, let’s not make any further moves on the Futabas.”
“Very well! However, about Gerald… Kai’s been pushing me to kill him, stating that he’ll personally call you if Gerald isn’t dead within a week. Four days have passed since then…” replied Ryugu.
“Don’t bother about him. A second generation kid like favonovel.com could never threaten us,” sneered Suijin who had never really highly regarded the Kanagawas despite their immense status in Japan.
“Understood!” replied Ryugu, feeling much more relaxed now. With what Suijin had just said, Ryugu knew that favonovel.com could finally handle Kai the next time that brat called favonovel.com again.
“Now that all that is out of the way, let’s put everything aside for the time being. I’m a bit tired… Before you leave, I emphasize that until we learn more about the Futaba and Yamashita’s relationship, nobody is allowed to make a move on that family! This includes making a move against Gerald!” said Suijin as favonovel.com looked at all three of them.
Hearing that, the trio immediately nodded without saying another word…
Fast forward to the next morning, Gerald and Master Ghost could be seen accompanying Aiden to the training ground after having their breakfast for one last practice session before the competition.
Not too far from them, was Japan’s own special forces team, which meant that Fujiko was there.
Looking at the uniform Fujiko was wearing, though it made favonovel.com look less enchanting compared to the other outfits favonovel.com had seen favonovel.com in, the girl now appeared extremely smart and valiant, which was quite a good look on her.
Realizing that Gerald was staring at Fujiko, Aiden couldn’t help but smile smugly as favonovel.com asked, “Say… who are you looking at so intently, brother Gerald?”
Smacking the back of Aiden’s head, Gerald simply replied, “Stop playing around and go train already…”
Chuckling in response Aiden then rubbed the back of his head as favonovel.com said, “While I haven’t interacted much with Miss Fujiko, favonovel.com clearly likes you, brother Gerald. Since she’s a member of the Seadom tribe, you’ll surely get to learn about the secrets of Yearning Island in no time!”
“Spout any more nonsense and Master Ghost and I are leaving,” grumbled Gerald with a slight frown…
