219 – Fathers

After a sumptuous lunch at a fine restaurant, we ended up chatting over sweet desserts.

And most of the conversation was about Sasha.

Anyway, it was the first time in my life that I had been away from my parents for quite a long time, so I thought there would be a lot of questions about each other.

Sasha explained in colorful expressions about what happened in the six months since she came to Japan as her exchange student.

However, no matter how good Sasha’s Japanese is, her vocabulary is on the low side compared to that of a typical high school student, so we ended up speaking a mixture of Russian that we couldn’t understand.

So, naturally, Sasha’s parents also started to speak Russian, so at some point we all thought, ‘Where is this place? Who am I?’ Status has been

And perhaps realizing this belatedly, Sasha’s mother cleared her throat and said,

“I’m sorry about this. Calling all of Sasha’s friends and only talking to her family.”

Then Rika, who had been bruised, waved her hands in amazement.

“No! No! It’s been a while! I understand!”

Perhaps it was very cute, Sasha’s mother laughed and said.

“Ms. Rika is a very considerate child.”

“hehehe…”

Rika scratches the back of her head in embarrassment.

Anyway, perhaps thanks to Sasha’s mother cutting off the conversation at the right time, she said as Ivan, who was in full swing talking with Sasha, got up from his seat.

“Then Sasha, let’s go up and play with her friends. We have a stopover.”

“Yes. See you in the evening.”

After seeing her parents out of her hotel, Sasha returned with her excited face and told us.

“Then shall we go up as well?”

The class president asked Sasha.

“You need to spend time with your parents, but aren’t we interfering?”

“That’s fine. You said you were planning to stay in Japan for the next week.”

“Then I’m glad.”

After the class president showed her nod, Sasha, who had been looking around her, suddenly strode over and placed her arms around her.

“?!?!”

I startled at the soft feel of her forearm and tried to pull her arm away, but Sasha rather strongly tightened her arm and looked up at me.

“Follow me quietly. Kim Yoo-seong. I know your weakness.”

“What?”

Weaknesses?

I instantly put on a bewildered expression at Sasha’s sudden remark, then suddenly came up with a hypothesis.

The fact that maybe Sasha found out about the relationship between me and her boss.

“…Let’s go.”

Thanks to that, I had no choice but to be quietly taken by Sasha, unable to even show slight resistance, despite the suspicious glances pouring out from around me.

***

That’s how Yuseong Kim and her children headed to the suite where Sasha was staying-

After escaping from the hotel, Ivan and his wife, Yelena, were moving through downtown Tokyo in a large sedan.

“Lena, it’s been quite a while since the two of you came to Japan?”

“That’s right. The last time I came to Japan was 10 years ago.”

According to her wife, Yelena, the last time she visited Japan was in 2008.

I was visiting Japan to see the finals of the GOF, which was the 4th since it was first held in 1999.

And 2008 was an unforgettable year for Ivan in many ways.

He had solidified his position as the world’s strongest while achieving the Grand Slam of winning the GOF three times in a row, because it was the day he lost his official position for the first time.

Because the black yacha who kept losing and won only once disappeared after that, opinions about who the strongest fighter of all time were still divided among those who were interested in fighting.

It was quite unfortunate from Ivan’s point of view.

Although I was struck by a strange technique I had never seen before, I was confident that I would win if I faced it again.

‘Black Yacha guy… Where are you and what are you doing?’

The information power of the Easter Egg Company, which Ivan reigns as the head, is comparable to that of the SVR of his country or the CIA of the United States.

That’s also because he actively absorbed KGB figures that existed in the former Soviet Union.

Boris, one of Ivan’s aides, was one of them.

However, even with such overwhelming intelligence, it was impossible to catch the black yasha’s tail in hiding.

I obtained a lot of information that people similar to him were witnessed in Japan, but the culprit was very strange and unlike Russia, where there are many flat lands, Japan has many mountainous areas, so it was optimized to live a secluded life away from people’s eyes.

“Sir, we have arrived at our destination.”

It was the driver’s voice that awakened Ivan’s thoughts.

Knock!

As the door of the large sedan opened and Ivan and Yelena got out of the back seat, the yakuza who had been waiting at the entrance of the mansion in advance lowered their heads in unison.

A normal person would have been overwhelmed if they had seen that moderation, but the person here was the ‘World’s Strongest Man’ in name and reality.

“Welcome, Commander Ivan.”

And the one who greeted him was a yakuza with blood-red hair and a cross scar on his face.

“Long time no see. Red haired kid.”

“…Now it’s nicknamed the Bloodbath.”

Naoto Tojo.

The 6th president of the Dongsung Association, which boasts a long history.

Combined with his right-hand man Takeyama, he is the worst yakuza duo called Shisan Blood Sea, but he was inferior to Ivan, who controls the Russian underworld at will.

“Well, it doesn’t matter what you call it. We’re here to talk about business anyway.”

“Come inside. I’ll show you the way.”

“Yes. Please take good care of me.”

Beyond the wide open gate, hundreds of yakuza were lined up in the yard.

It was nothing more than a device to show off the power of the Dong Clan, but Ivan didn’t blink an eye.

On the contrary, he took a cigar out of his pocket in a calm manner, put it in his mouth, and lit it himself.

“Huhhhhh-“

Ivan blew out the smoke that was in his mouth and spoke as if he remembered it belatedly.

“Come to think of it, I met your daughter before I came here.”

“…My daughter?”

Naoto Tojo, who was walking in front of him, was very nervous, thinking that Ivan was threatening him with his family for a moment, but he had to listen to what people said to understand.

“My daughter is in Japan now as an exchange student. She must be friends.”

“I see…”

It was something he already knew since he had visited his house before, but he felt like he had misunderstood something on his own, so Naoto blurted out his words vaguely.

“I cannot stay in Japan for a long time due to circumstances, so take care of my daughter.”

“…I understand.”

As soon as he realized that no matter how cold-hearted a man in the underworld was, he still cared about his daughter. Naoto Tojo, feeling a little relieved, decided to ease the needless tension.

Because if he makes a mistake in the negotiation process, he only loses himself.

Same time-

“Did you say Kim Yoo-seong?”

Fleeing from the wrath of her daughter Yukika Fuma, Kotaro Fuma took shelter outside her house and stood on top of a telephone pole, spreading her feelings throughout Tokyo.

In fact, it is almost impossible to find people in this way in general.

Finding a single person in a city with millions of people is as difficult as finding a needle in the desert.

But if there is one clue attached to it, the story will be a little different.

The Kim Yoo-seong, whom he is currently looking for, has won the title of Japan’s strongest by defeating Ivan Romanov and Hattori Hanzo, two of the strongest in the world.

For a man like that, the energy inside him must be enormous, and it was very easy for Kotaro Fuma, a ninja, to feel such a strong presence.

The ever-expanding range of senses.

In time, what caught his senses were two mighty spirits.

One radiated heat like the sun, and it was as if the body itself was on fire with a haze.

And the other one was cold and refined like the Siberian wind, condensed tightly like Arctic ice.

The latter sign was familiar to Fuma Kotaro.

That’s also the case because they competed a total of four times on the international stage.

‘Ivan Romanov… Why is he in Japan?’

The last time I met him was 10 years ago.

Fuma Kotaro left the village immediately after raising his ransom to the maximum in the final fight.

It was because he thought that only then would the elders of the village feel his absence greatly.

‘Oh, this is not the time to think about anything else.’

If he searched for too long, he could be detected in the opposite way, so Fuma Kotaro hurriedly cut off his energy and started to follow the sun-like energy he had found in the east.

But at this time, he couldn’t imagine it.

That he was found out by Ivan that he was in Tokyo.
