Mira had a dream, dreaming that he was happily playing with his little daughter, and then a group of thugs suddenly rushed out from the surroundings...
Just when he was protecting his little daughter with a desperate face, a fair-skinned and handsome young man and a fierce-looking bald man suddenly descended from the sky, not only quickly killed all the thugs, but also cut off the head of this bastard with a knife in the wailing of Gatō begging for mercy!
"Didn't expect it, you have today too!"
Mira picked up Gatō's head with both hands, with a face full of resentment!
But at this moment, Gatō's head actually showed a strange smile, and even spoke?!
"The world's suffering, the Jashin's eternity! Go with me to serve Lord Jashin, hahahaha!"
After saying that, he opened his mouth wide and swallowed him in one bite...
"Ah!"
Mira was suddenly awakened, and his body was covered in cold sweat that had already wet the bed.
He hadn't been able to get a good night's sleep recently. Today, he finally fell asleep, but he didn't expect to have a nightmare that was a little different from before, and then be scared awake.
"So it was just a dream..."
Mira couldn't help but sigh like this, and he couldn't tell whether he felt regret or relief.
But when he sat up, his expression suddenly stiffened!
Because he found that he was holding a dead man's head in his hands!
And it wasn't someone else, it was the head of Gatō, whom he hated to the bone!
The head seemed to have some regrets, and there was still fear and incomprehension in his eyes before death.
This scene was somewhat similar to the scene in the dream, which made him recall the scene of Gatō opening his mouth wide and swallowing him, so his whole body shivered, and he subconsciously screamed and threw the head in his hand out.
"I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming..."
After subconsciously chanting two sentences, he finally noticed the blood on his hands, and the surrounding environment.
"This isn't a dream, Gatō, that evildoer, is really dead! Those two people from the Jashin Sect really did it!"
While muttering to himself in disbelief, Mira recalled what the two had said when they left today, "...Just find a place to sleep, when you open your eyes again, everything will be over."
It's over!
It's really over this time!
The nightmare that had been bothering him and preventing him from sleeping had also ended!
But he suddenly realized an even more terrible problem, that since the people from the Jashin Sect could kill Gatō and quietly send this head into his arms, then of course they could use the same method to get rid of him.
So this head wasn't just a 'gift', but also a warning!
Thinking again of his previous dissatisfaction with the Jashin Sect only sending two people, Mira couldn't help but show a wry smile.
Now even he didn't know whether it was good or bad to be so deeply involved with the Jashin Sect, and he could only take it one step at a time.
"Someone!"
At Mira's call, the bodyguards guarding outside immediately pushed the door open and entered, and then saw their boss sitting on the bed with blood on his hands, and the dead man's head that had rolled to the door.
"Quickly prepare a dinner party, it must be the most sumptuous! Also, take out all the vintage wines from my No. 1 warehouse. And invite all the most beautiful geishas in the city, money is not a problem!"
"What are you still doing standing there, hurry up!"
"Wait a minute, take that dead man's head down too, and hang it on the highest flagpole in the courtyard first. Remember to take protective measures, don't let any crows take away it and eat it, I'm going to use it to commemorate my daughter in a few days."
The bodyguard hurriedly picked it up and said respectfully: "Yes, Patriarch!"
Gatō was dead, which meant that half of the sky in the Land of Waves had changed, and it was about to change back.
It was still unknown how many people would die next, especially those who underestimated the Mira family and stood on the wrong side.
...
Just when Mira asked people to prepare the dinner party, the news of Gatō's death had quickly spread.
Among them were people who had discovered the truth, and also Mira who deliberately let out the news.
But what really caused the commotion was of course the head that was hung high on the flagpole!
This war between the uncrowned kings of the Land of Waves finally ended with Mira's victory, which really surprised and shocked many people.
As for the act of secretly killing competitors, most of the insiders didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Because it was Gatō who took the lead in not playing by the rules, hiring rogue ninjas and other armed forces to assassinate members of the Mira family.
If it wasn't for Mira's good life, and his little daughter accidentally took the knife for him, it was estimated that Mira would have died long ago, and the entire family would have been disintegrated by Gatō in a very short period of time, and then eaten clean, leaving nothing behind!
So Mira's approach was just a counterattack and revenge in the eyes of many people.
You can't try to reason with the murderer when someone has already started killing your whole family.
Another reason was that Gatō was too tyrannical and brutal, and often caused other people to be ruined.
In comparison, people naturally expected the Mira family, whose reputation was much better, to win.
So, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it.
Before Mira even sent someone to do it, Gatō's subordinates had already started infighting.
Some were preparing to roll up the money and run away, some were waving their arms and wanted to avenge Gatō and take the position, and some proposed to simply defect to the Mira family
And before they could tear a result out, the villagers who had been oppressed before had already gathered together under the instigation of some people and began to attack the various companies of Gatō Company.
Among these people were those who kicked a man when he was down, those who came to seek revenge, and even those who were looking for trouble.
And like the last straw that broke the camel's back, the huge Gatō Company collapsed in an instant!
Mira couldn't help but be stunned when he received the news. Originally, he was worried that a centipede would die but not fall, and was planning how to annex Gatō Company with the least amount of loss.
Now it saved him the trouble, and after the villagers had vented their anger, he could take over the remaining inheritance without any effort.
Standing at his height to view the overall situation, the money that was taken away by Gatō's subordinates and the items that were robbed by the villagers were nothing at all. After he integrated all the resources, he could earn them back a thousand times over, which was the difference in pattern.
And what was more important to him now was to entertain the two heroes who killed Gatō, and prepare the supplies to maintain a good relationship with the Jashin Sect.
He needed the Jashin Sect to take action at the appropriate time to eliminate all hidden dangers for him.
And the Jashin Sect also needed a lot of money for development.
So they were a win-win relationship, taking what they needed from each other.
At least for now, they were still in the honeymoon period.
