New Battles Without Honor and Humanity 2: Boss's Head Page #3

---

Do you think the general public

will condone this kind of behavior?

The police want your group to dissolve.

To hell with the police.

Shut up.

How did you manage to lead

your men in your boss's place?

Our dad is concerned about your

members who are left behind.

He offers to look after you.

But if you get into trouble with the police...

the family will be dissolved,

and he won't take you in.

Take responsibility and get

the men to go home. All right?

But what about kuroda?

Leave it to us. We'll come

up with the best solution.

Alright?

Y... yes.

We're done. Please go ahead.

Kuroda, what made you kill Akamatsu?

Tell me what happened.

We'll need to take appropriate

measures depending on circumstances.

Please ask Aihara about it.

Aihara? What do you mean?

I will explain. But first...

kuroda, here's the five million I promised.

Hey, hadn't you given it to him yet?

Dad, the fact is, I made the plan

to get kuroda to kill Akamatsu.

What did you say?

What did you do that for?

A guy like Akamatsu who kept

all the profits in his pocket...

and now wanted to leave the

family and go independent.

It wouldn't make a good example if

we just let him do whatever he wants.

But if someone in the family killed him

it wouldn't look good to the society.

But Aihara, Mr. Akamatsu

was Boss's brother after all.

And you took it in your own hands.

There's such a thing as an indirect way

of loyalty in the world of the yakuza.

In your mind I bet you all had

the same thought, didn't you?

Kuroda, I'll give you 24

hours to leave this town.

You'll be okay on the road with that money.

This is the money you

promised me seven years ago.

How are you going to pay me

for taking care of Akamatsu?

What?

We did what you told us to

do, and lost a young man.

This money won't even pay for a funeral.

Please do the right thing.

Do you think...

a wanderer like yourself is in any position to

try and get your way with the Owada Family?

A wanderer has his own pride too.

Throw him out!

Stop it!

I'll take in kuroda.

Treat him as a guest and

show him hospitality.

Dad!

Aihara, kuroda served

seven years in jail for us.

Not only that...

He's the one who did the work

for you to carry out your plan.

You shouldn't treat him so heartlessly.

But Akamatsu's young men won't be

happy about the way you treat him.

You as the Manager of Young

Men keep them under control.

I was going to excommunicate

Akamatsu. Tell them that.

Case closed.

Kuroda, I'll take care of the one who died.

Can you settle for that?

Yes.

His mother is here to claim his body.

Do you confirm it is Shigeru Sasaki?

Yes.

You want him to be cremated here

and take his ashes home, correct?

Excuse me, I'm his friend.

He told me his name was Akira kobayashi.

Is that so?

I don't know why...

but he paid for becoming

crazy about a movie star...

and disrespecting the

name his parents gave him.

Missing:
Shigeru Sasaki

He was always a foolish young boy.

He said he didn't want to be a farmer,

and wanted to be a wanderer,

and ran away from home.

What the psychic told me came true.

She said he wouldn't return

alive, but as red bones.

If his body turns into red bones,

it's a sign of his wrongdoing.

What will our ancestors say then?

The atmosphere is the sales point of a bar...

so I plan to decorate it like a Ginza bar.

I see, you're quite an

entrepreneur, aren't you?

It's all because the Owada

Family is behind it.

Hey, come over here.

Dad, let me introduce to you the

manager of the bar. This is Boss Owada.

I know him well.

It's been a long time. Welcome.

Oh, so, it's you.

I thought you might still be in mourning.

I persuaded her into it.

It doesn't make sense to stay

loyal to a dead man forever.

Dad, this way, please.

Please.

Well, please relax and enjoy.

Ginza, my ass.

What bad taste. All he knows

about are cheap cabarets.

Kuroda, I see you got the support role.

You introduced them to each other.

You'd better stay away from that woman.

She's what they call a down luck maid.

Every man who gets involved

with her ends up dead.

The man before Akamatsu

and the man before him...

died in car accidents or something, I hear.

Is that right? How frightening.

Then, you should stay away from her too.

Well, I'd be interested in

sleeping with her maybe once.

Asajiro Nozaki

Head of the Nozaki Family of Osaka

A nice bar, isn't it?

Please come this way.

Dad, it's Uncle from Osaka.

My goodness, it is my big brother.

Brother.

Brother.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming?

I'm here as Aihara's guest today.

Uncle, it's been a long time.

I hear you're doing well.

Doing my best.

Uncle, please come this way. Please.

Aihara, how come you didn't

tell me Brother was coming?

Now, now, it's alright. I'm here with you now.

Dad. The mayor is on the phone.

He wants to say congratulations to you.

My, my. Excuse me for a few minutes.

How about that? Aihara's grown big.

You have a good successor.

You can relax and retire any time you want.

Brother. Did Aihara mention

something about my retirement?

No, he didn't.

I've never said anything to anyone

about who the successor will be.

But you know, there's no other

candidate who's good enough.

Listen, you're getting up there.

It's a good idea to start thinking

about who your successor will be.

I asked you to gather here today...

about the successor after my retirement.

Dad, are you retiring?

That's not what I mean.

I just want to prepare

for the times to comes...

and decide who it will be

within the inner circle.

Izeki, you take over the family after me.

What?

Me?

That's right. You.

Dad, I disagree.

Me too.

I don't want to sound harsh but

he doesn't have the charisma.

What a thing to say. He's

the first in the ranks.

Aihara...

I hope you weren't thinking

of pushing him aside...

and getting to the top yourself.

So, there it is.

Also, I want to take this opportunity

to give kuroda my bonding cup.

Please be my witnesses.

Hey, get kuroda here.

Dad, hold on a minute.

I'd submit to any decision you make.

But I do oppose you giving kuroda your cup.

Getting a total stranger like

him into the Owada Family...

is like soiling the valuable name of Owada.

He's right.

He's a wanderer.

He's someone I've come to trust in.

Or are you saying your judgment

of characters is better than mine?

Dad.

Did you want to see me?

Kuroda, I want to give you

my cup as a bonded parent.

Have you ever bonded with anyone before?

No, no one.

Alright.

Izeki, after I give him my cup...

you give him a cup to bond as his brother.

I want you to cooperate with everyone else...

and keep the family going

strong after I retire.

Alright?

Yes.

Daddy.

How many years has it been?

Yeah.

How's your blood pressure?

It was 150/70 yesterday.

That's good.

You still remember what I like.

Here.

Misako. I'm thinking of retiring.

I thought I'd be able to keep going...

but people around me are pressuring me.
