Chapter 2: Haruto's Death
"Maybe I should unify all the gangs, so it could be easy for gun to conquer them when he takes over the Oya bun (leader) position." mused Ha-Joon while throwing his cigarette and stepped in it.
Shortly, Silhouette of many gangs began visible at the distance light background. Ha-Joon slowly got up from the pile of body, then began to stretch his body.
"Bast**d, Do you truly think you can take us down by yourself"
"Let's just kill him right now"
"Finish him"
One after another voices began appearing before surrounding Ha-Joon completely. Ha-Joon exhaled slowly and said excitedly, "Bring it on"
Before, Anyone could attack, Ha-Joon moved and started taking down dozen of people at once. Only afterimage could be seen on the battlefield wherever Ha-Joon moved. He started taking down all the gangs member with his incredible speed and strength. In less than an hour, Ha-Joon finished all the major gangs of Japan and truly unified them.
"Listen, when young master of Yamazaki family takes on leader position, all of you should go to express your loyalty towards him and remember to listen his every word if you don't want to be finished." Exhaling slowly, Ha-Joon commanded all the major gangs.
.....
Yamazaki Residence,
At the front gate, Ha-Joon started to move towards the inside before being stopped at the gate.
"Sir, please state your identity" asked one of the gatekeeper.
"Yamazaki Shintaro's, eldest son, Yamazaki Ha-Joon" said Ha-Joon briefly looking towards gatekeeper.
"Please" said gatekeeper while bowing deeply.
Ha-Joon nodded and moved towards the study room to report his experience to Shintaro. Shortly, After arriving at the room, he saw Shintaro slapping Haruto and threatening him about the family's law and moral, throwing dragger at him, he told Haruto to commit Hara-Kiri. Ha-Joon couldn't help but frown at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene in front of him.
"Foster Father, What do you think you are doing?" said Ha-joon before entering inside the room.
Shintaro glanced at him, slightly surprised at his return and questioned, " Are you questioning my judgement?"
Ha-Joon stepped in front of Haruto, faced Shintaro and said," Yes, Why do you want Haruto to commit Hara-kiri (suicide).
"Ha-Joon nisan, You don't have to argue with father for my sake, I will commit Hara-kiri if he needs my death to acknowledge me as true Yamazaki, And i request you to watch over gun after my death." Said Haruto before slowly picking dagger to commit suicide.
Ha-Joon exhaled sharply, and said, "I promise you to look after him, but do you truly have to commit Hara-Kiri."
"Yes, father may have loved me but if I stayed alive, he would never acknowledge me as a true Yamazaki" having said that, Haruto slowly pierced the small dagger inside of his stomach before slowly collapsing on the floor.
Ha-Joon slowly moved towards Haruto to pick him up with his trembling hand, slowly placed Haruto's body on his shoulder and started moving towards the door completely ignoring Shintaro and Gun, before he could exit the door, his head slightly turned towards Shintaro and couldn't holdback his thought, "Foster father you didn't even spare your own son for the so called rules, truly pathetic."
Shintaro face changed slightly upon hearing Ha-Joon's insult, but ignored it as mere child outburst.
...
Yamazaki Graveyard,
"May you find eternal peace." Ha-Joon said softly after sitting on his knees and joined his palm together, bringing towards his forehead. After mourning for the loss of Haruto. He walked toward the training ground for testing out gun's current strength.
He had called gun before coming at the grave so, he could fully test his limit and to prepare for his training. After reaching at the training ground, he began to stretch his body. Shortly, after stretching his body, gun appeared at the training ground.
Ha-Joon eyes scanned gun and feign ignorance: " So, you're Yamazaki Gun, the heir of Yamazaki patriarc-"
Before Ha-Joon could finish his sentence, Gun intervened him abruptly: "Why did you not stop him from committing suicide."
Ha-Joon sighed softly before adding: "Did you really think I wouldn't want to save him. He had made his decision for the acknowledgement of his father."
"Enough of this, name's Yamazaki Ha-Joon, let's get started" He finally couldn't holdback and lunged towards gun before giving a extremely fast kick near his chin, sending him flying near the wall.
Gun slowly stood up, wiped the bleeding, started dashing toward Ha-Joon before giving him crescent kick near his ribs, Ha-Joon watched amusedly at gun's kick near his rib which simply didn't had any effect on him. Ha-Joon followed up with powerful punch straight at his face who was preparing to throw another kick.
Gun staggered slightly, before placing his elbow, crossed near his face to block Ha-Joon punch, but couldn't block the full force of Ha-Joon's punch, which in turn cracked his elbow bones and faltered backward. He slightly tilted his head to evade Ha-Joon's attack. Before, he could adjust his body, he widened his eyes as his vision spun, he was upside down, mid~air.
"Good endurance." Ha-Joon's voiced reached him before a precise kick on his ribs once again sent him flying towards the broken wall. "Come at me with all you got, don't hold back yourself." said Ha-Joon who stood over him, smiling and waiting.
"Brace yourself." said Gun before coughing mouthful of blood. Without a second, He jumped towards Ha-Joon before flying a kick towards his face. Ha-Joon didn't dodge, as he didn't had to, Gun's kick landed forcefully at Ha-Joon's head. Just as Ha-Joon could grab gun's head, he began to spin midair at extremely fast speed, giving Ha-Joon a sharp blow. He crashed on the ground because of the blow, He slowly stood up from the ground and glanced at gun.
Before, Ha-Joon could process the attack, gun began to strike with a flurry of kicks and punch. Ha-Joon blocked and retaliated seamlessly. With each attack gun's blood began to splatter. Gun smirked, he blocked Ha-Joon's punch with his leg, used the momentum of punch to spin midair and delivered a powerful kick with another leg towards Ha-Joon's chin, sending him flying.
Ha-Joon simply stood up, briefly dusting his clothes, as if unbothered by Gun's attack. His eye slowly locked gun who was battered from the previous blow and spoke lazily: "Hmm, Good, you are starting to adapt mid~fight"
"But I've gouged your current strength, Let's not continue this meaningless fight." Ha-Joon said before adjusting his clothes, picked cigarette from his pocket and lit it with fluid motion.
"No, let's fight, it was getting fun." Gun said while taking a deep breath to release his fatigue. His face gradually forming smile.
"You are not yet ready for intense battle, and I will start to train you from tomorrow" said Ha-joon while taking a long drag.
Gun was taken aback, he didn't except that Ha-Joon would start to teach him starting tomorrow. Exhaling deeply, he said coldly: "I understand, be prepared, you're not getting un~scattered from the fight"
"GAMBARE" said Ha-Joon waving the back of his hand while throwing cigarette at the ground.
.....
Ha-Joon slowly walked towards his house while greeting family elders on the way. Soon, he arrived at the door before pushing it open. He went straight towards his room. He changed his dress into simple pajama before leaning on his bed.
"Rebellion should arrive tomorrow, but first let's get a good sleep." thought Ha-Joon before falling asleep deeply.
