It was a genius setup, they were not only trying to clean their backyard using his hands but were also using his na to find their moles inside their house.
Did they truly think that he was so magnanimous as to let this happen like this? Or did they think that they could bully him since he hadn't shown sufficient strength and power?
They were truly going overboard if they thought that he would just take all this lying down, and wouldn't care about this in the least.
But first, he had to make so things clear, as he took out a satellite coded phone and called Uncle Satoru, he had to know if this was the decision of the Council as whole or particular individuals.
As soon as the call picked up, he didn't even greet the Old Man, as he entered directly into the topic,
"Old Man just what do you think you guys are doing? What do you take for? Clearly, you seem to have forgotten about the deal we had!"
On the other side of the phone though Uncle Satoru seed to have a complicated voice as he said,
"I haven't forgotten about the deal kid, but there are people who don't look at you with a favorable eye, and more as a threat, or a possible deflector.
All I can say right now is that you should be really careful from now on if you don't have the strength to face them right now!"
Hearing that Eric just started smiling for a bit, as he said,
"I get it, apparently I was too soft the first ti, and people need a show of strength. I didn't want things to go like this, but you forced my hand.
Just rember this is the first and only ti I will allow sothing like this to happen, because if it happens again then I can just run amok with all I know.
Now if you please tell all the people spying on the call to close their ears or I don't maintain responsibility for what happens later, I will tell you sothing in private!"
Uncle Satoru could clearly hear that Eric was truly serious and he was going to say sothing really important, as he imdiately ordered all the people hearing the call to step down.
Of course, everyone was startled at this decision, but there was nothing they could do but go outside because clearly, they wouldn't be able to find Eric by tracing this call.
As soon as they all lowered their headphones and got out, Uncle Satoru turned his phone to the ear, and said,
"Everyone has left, now tell kid what do you want to tell ?"
Taking his cue, Eric said in a calm and indifferent voice,
"Old Man I respect your loyalty and honesty, and especially the fact that you tried to save my life while yours was in danger, so I am turning one eye blind this ti.
I am not saying that I will just let this pass, but the price I will ask won't be blood. Tell those old folks to find a proper way to end this, if they don't, just tell them these five words!
'Crown, Ginza, Shinde, General, Samurai'
I am sure this will be enough to convince them not to ss with at the mont. But if they decide to make an enemy then all the best!"
With these things said, he cut the call with Uncle Satoru and after that, he made a call to Master Ito, he had left him alone all this ti, just like Young Master Miura but it was ti to use him a bit.
If the Council wanted a cold war, then he wasn't really afraid of it, every war could be played by both sides.
As soon as Master Ito picked his call, he started giving him the necessary instructions. He told Master Ito that in less than a week he had to buy a dia channel, a newspaper, and a few bloggers.
If he wanted to have a voice in the modern world, and dia these things were necessary. Through them, he would be able to always transmit his own version of things.
As soon as he finished the call with Master Ito, he called Kirigaya, and instructed him to go and find the real killer through the underworld, and use whatever it took to make him confess his cri.
Of course, his story would be a bit twisted since he didn't want to make a declaration of war to the Council, he just wanted to clean his na.
Of course, this wouldn't solve the whole problem but it would at least keep the foreigners at a distance and they would rethink this situation and its role in all this.
Soon he would beco the son-in-law of the Takeshiba family, and of course with the new family na, and background he would turn into so kind of untouchable.
On the other hand, Uncle Satoru as soon as he cut the call with Eric got out of the office and headed towards the underground bunker.
On the deepest floor underground was the place where he could start a eting with the Council of Five, and also report them on the situation.
Clearly, the situation was already tense at the mont amidst the council mbers, as they were having a discussion over the created situation.
While everything looked simple, clean, and safe on the outside, the chairwoman and Old Five were warning the other three that they were poking a slumbering giant.
Even though Old Five had himself tried to work according to the situation, he still didn't like this plan at all. He was just forced to show that the Council was on the sa line.
Seeing the arrival of Uncle Satoru they all stopped what they were doing, as Two said in a clearly unhappy voice,
"What do you have to report this ti little Satoru, just what did that kid say!?"
Uncle Satoru just laughed in a forced way as he said word per word what Eric said, including the fact that he wouldn't be asking for blood in return but the price would be really heavy.
Hearing those words, not only Two, but even Three, and Four seed to beco really angered, as they said in a harsh voice,
"He dares!!!"
But they weren't able to continue because Uncle Satoru, cut them in a polite way,
"Esteed Elders I don't think you have the right to judge him, as you started all this. Furthermore, if I have understood sothing by that kid, is that he doesn't let his grudges end easily!"
Even though polite, his ssage was clear and right to the point. Still, this kind of polite reproach wasn't welcod by the three Elders, as Two said in a harsher voice,
"Little Satoru don't forget who you are talking to, and who do you serve! This is outrageous, he has the guts to pressure, and threaten us!
He will be a bigger threat into the future and I think we should take care of him as soon as possible!"
At this mont though Old Five lost his control for a mont and said,
"Old Two he is just reminding you of your own faults. Furthermore, the kid didn't pressure and threaten us, but you, because you were the one who started all this."
Just as he said those words though, imdiately Three and Four jumped over him,
"Old Five, Old Two is part of the Council just like you and , and we are one single entity. If one threatens one of us, he has threatened us all."
"Old Four is right, this is not the ti to fight against each other, but to fight against a possible enemy.
He is still a kid and took the Senkaku Islands in a deal from us, what if one day he becos too strong, and we won't be able to frighten or scare him, and he asks for the whole country?"
Uncle Satoru was clearly a bit let down by this discussion, because it was clear that right now they weren't really thinking about the country but for their own selves.
After that, the discussion continued for a bit more, but the decision was straying more and more towards the fact that they had to kill Eric before he was a bigger threat.
Now that they had been able to capture one of the secret spies, and also gotten all those profits from her, and those new rings, they didn't think that they needed Eric anymore.
Right now more than a needed partner, he was more of a dirty secret keeper, that could impede their way and their developnt.
With the new possibilities ahead, a few of them were thinking about creating their own countries, or why not uniting the whole planet in one.
With the system-rings, they would be able to train a large troupe of people in secret and slowly be able to take control of the whole planet.
Who would be able to stop them in their way? They would trample everyone who they ca across without the slightest problem.
Even those powers in the dark would either stay in the dark forever or co out and pledge their loyalty to them.
The dream of a united dynasty wasn't just a dream anymore, and killing Eric was just the first step towards that dream.
Old Five seed more down to Earth and opposed this thought, as he was reminding them, that they were flying too high.
But seeing the easy benefits of the rings, and systems had made these Old people once again dream, even though their eyes were open.
The Chairwoman seed to be in a difficult position right now, as she seed to agree with difficulty to their plan.
Just as their decision was going to be taken though, Uncle Satoru interrupted them and said,
"Esteed Elder before you take any decision, that kid told to tell you 5 words, and he seed really assured of himself that these words would make you change opinion!"
Hearing those words, Two seed like he had heard so kind of joke because nothing would change his mind at the mont, as he said,
"Oh do tell us, what are those 5 words that will make us change our minds!?"
Uncle Satoru didn't know what to think about anymore, as he decided to just say them, and be done with it, as he said,
'Crown, Ginza, Shinde, General, Samurai'…
