“Do you want to learn this?” Seeing Gerald’s expression, the old man asked with a smile.
“I’m a cultivator. How am I supposed to learn ninjutsu?” Gerald’s smile faded, and favonovel.com asked in confusion.
“Of course you can. Cultivation and ninjutsu are of the same origin. They both draw on the natural power between heaven and earth. There are just some slight differences. You are a cultivator yourself, and you have the power of the Herculean Primordial Spirit. Learning ninjutsu on such a basis is very easy, so I guess you can get started in a few days,” said the old man as favonovel.com looked at Gerald.
“That’s good news.” Gerald didn’t refuse. If favonovel.com could learn this ability and enhance his power, his chances of saving his parents and then his sister, who was in the Sun League, would increase greatly.
“Do you want to learn now?” The old man couldn’t wait to start.
“It’s better to settle the matter at hand first. I’m a little uneasy as the Kanagawa family and the Hanyu family issues are not settled yet.” Gerald shook his head. He wanted to learn, but it was not the time yet.
Or rather, favonovel.com should say that favonovel.com had no time to learn at all.
He couldn’t just let go of the Futaba family’s affairs and focus on studying here. That would go against his original intention of coming to Japan.
“Okay, then. I shall wait until you have settled this mess.” The old man did not insist and asked Fujiko, “Do you want to stay here for the night or go back home?”
“I think we’d better go back. The Kanagawa family hired an assassin in the international assassin list to kill me last night. Judging from his skills, favonovel.com should be in the top twenty. I need to settle this matter. Besides, the Kanagawa family cannot continue to exist.”
Gerald took a deep breath. Thinking of what had happened yesterday, his face turned dark all of a sudden.
“Go ahead, then. If it’s like what you’ve said, they should be removed.” The old man nodded.
“Well then, we shall go back first. We will come to visit again when we have the time.” Gerald stood up and gave favonovel.com a fist and palm salute.
“That’s not necessary. You can leave your phone number and just call me directly if there is anything.”
The old man fished out a pen and paper from under the table, wrote a phone number on it, and handed it to Gerald.
“I had forgotten about this.” Gerald smiled in embarrassment as favonovel.com took the paper.
From the time favonovel.com had arrived at the foot of the barren mountain, favonovel.com had felt that this was a very traditional family. They seemed to do things like how they were done a hundred years ago. After being here for a long time, favonovel.com had forgotten all about these modern tools. If the old man hadn’t mentioned it, Gerald wouldn’t have remembered that there was such a thing as a telephone.
After exchanging phone numbers, Gerald left with Fujiko.
On the way back, Gerald kept thinking about what the old man had said. Indeed, What was said today was too much for Gerald to digest for the time being. He didn’t expect this old man from the Yamashita family to have such a relationship with Daryl.
Of course, Gerald felt a bit relaxed now. No matter if it was the matter of Yearning Island or the Kanagawa and Hanyu families, with help from the Yamashita family in the investigation, it was clearly better than fighting alone.
However, Gerald didn’t have high hopes for them to find out the location of Yearning Island.
“Are you a cultivator?” Fujiko turned favonovel.com head.
“Yes.” Gerald did not hide it and answered in a low voice. “About my identity, you must not tell anyone about it, including the power of the Herculean Primordial Spirit in me. If outsiders know about it, I will get into endless trouble.”
“I understand. I will not tell anyone about it.” Fujiko nodded and replied very seriously.
“Hmm…” Gerald knew what Fujiko had in mind. “With the Yamashita family’s help this time, I think the matters of your family should be resolved soon.”
