Chiyoda Ward, Takeda family.

After receiving the news of General Lin Zhong's decisive battle with the Secret Service, Takeda Takashi, who had no worries about taking sides, quietly returned to his residence with his core tribe members.

In the quiet conference room, Takeda Takashi, Takeda Tsuyoshi, Okita Shinji, Takeda Mitsuaki, Takeda Mahraku, and Takeda Jun sat opposite each other, but Takeda Yuji was not seen.

Takeda Yuji had already defected to Biluo before, and he had been following Hyakkimon's actions in the past few days, gradually moving away from the center of family power.

"I originally thought that the Secret Intelligence Service would go to war. Who would have thought that they would openly declare a challenge and choose to use warriors to resolve their grudges."

Takeda Takeda looked a little contemptuous: "They have surrounded the Uesugi family, but they dare not attack. It is extremely embarrassing."

"It's not that the Secret Service didn't dare, it's just that it makes no sense."

Takeda Takashi had a deeper insight than Takeda Tsuyoshi: "What was their purpose of surrounding the Uesugi family? To prevent Lin Chong from escaping. But Lin Chong was not at the Uesugi family from the beginning. Their plan failed, so they naturally had to change their strategy."

"I even think that the Uesugi family is a bait thrown by His Excellency Lin Chong to lure the Secret Service into taking the bait."

The beautiful and dignified Takeda Shinraku continued: "When the Secret Service concentrated all its high-end forces and prepared to break into the Uesugi family, it neglected the defense of various strongholds, which led to a series of events that followed."

Takeda Takashi, Takeda Tsuyoshi and others nodded silently, agreeing with Takeda Mahraku's judgment.

"Although the Secret Service issued a gag order prohibiting anyone from discussing it, I still heard some rumors. They suffered heavy losses this time, so much so that Mr. Schoner even lost his temper in public and became furious."

"It's normal to be angry. If it were me, I would be frustrated over and over again. I would be controlled by others, and I would still be angry."

"His Excellency Lin Zhong is really very capable. With only his own strength, he managed to play with so many powerful people from the Secret Intelligence Bureau while applauding..."

"So, our approach of not choosing sides is correct. Although it will damage the family's face and reputation, overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages."

"I do hope that Mr. Lin Zhong will win. At least, he pays attention to credibility, affection and justice, and has a bottom line in doing things. He is easier to deal with than the Secret Intelligence Service who does everything possible."

Everyone was talking and talking.

"In three days, they will decide the winner. This conflict that has made each of us involuntarily come to an end."

Takeda Takashi looked around and said solemnly: "As one of the three imperial families, we cannot continue to be absent. We must go to the Fuso Martial Arts Hall to witness it with our own eyes!"

Like the Takeda family, the Fuma family, the Yagyu family, the Asai family... many Fuso families have made their own decisions.

Tokyo, which was originally in chaos, seemed to calm down instantly.

The exchanges of fire and battles, large and small, stopped, and peace returned to Tokyo in just one night.

Everyone is waiting.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

During these three days, the snow never stopped for a moment.

The whole of Tokyo became completely white.

Roads are icy, rivers are frozen, traffic is jammed, and shops are closed.

The street was quiet, and not a single soul could be seen.

However, on the third day, the long-lost sunshine finally came.

Takeda Shinraku got up early in the morning.

Because they didn't know when the much-anticipated decisive battle would begin, they had to enter the Fuso Martial Arts Hall in advance to avoid being stopped outside by the Secret Service.

Under the service of the maid, Takeda Shinraku put on a gorgeous dress, showing off her graceful and graceful curves, elegant yet sexy, beautiful yet dignified.

She looked in the mirror, nodded with satisfaction, then turned and went out.

Arriving outside the house, the retainers who had been waiting for a long time immediately surrounded her and went to the gate to join Takeda Takashi, Takeda Tsuyoshi and others.

Fuso Budokan is also located in Chiyoda District, not far from the Takeda family mansion.

Therefore, it only took ten minutes for the Takeda family's motorcade to arrive at the parking lot near the Budokan.

Viewed from a distance, Fuso Martial Arts Hall looks like a lying giant beast, extremely eye-catching.

This arena was built fifty years ago and covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. It is usually used to hold various martial arts events and fighting conferences. It is one of the oldest and largest arenas in Fuso Country.

Its shape is simple and grand, and it combines Eastern and Western styles. Like Akasaka Palace, it is a landmark building in Tokyo.

The parking lot is only across the street from the Budokan, and there are already many luxury cars parked there.

From the family crests, it can be seen that those luxury cars belong to the Asai family, the Yagyu family, the Fuma family, and the Nagakura family, which controls the Sumiyoshi society.

And right in front of the Takeda family's motorcade, Beichen Itto-ryu master Fan Chiba Ryui happened to reach out and push open the car door.

Behind Chiba Ryuui were his daughter Chiba Yuzuru and his direct disciple Sakamoto Sogo, as well as several dojo masters who were well-known in the kendo world.

Takeda Takashi immediately got out of the car and took the initiative to shake hands with Chiba Ryui and exchange greetings.

As the eldest daughter, Takeda Mahraku naturally couldn't stay in the car any longer. She struggled internally, tightened her collar, and braved the cold morning wind to greet everyone in Beichen Ittoryu.

When Qianye Yuhe saw her, he suddenly smiled in surprise and waved secretly: "Sister Zhenle."

Takeda Shinraku was shivering from the cold, and the warm baby he carried around him didn't work at all, but he still had to maintain his aristocratic style at all times, with a pretty face and a smile, and nodded to Chiba Yuzuru.

At this moment, Takeda Shinraku heard Chiba Ryui ask: "Master Takeda, didn't you leave Tokyo? When did you come back?"

"Ashamed, ashamed."

Takeda Takashi shook his head and sighed: "The situation at that time was so dangerous that we had no choice but to keep the family away from the center of the storm and let Brother Chiba see the joke."

"The Takeda family's approach is extremely wise. Who dares to laugh at you?"

Qianye Longjing also looked sad: "Our Beichen Yida-ryu has its foundation here and cannot leave. We live in trepidation every day, walking on thin ice."

"Fortunately, the most dangerous time is finally over."

Takeda Takashi's eyes flickered, and he suddenly lowered his voice: "However, no matter which side wins in the end today, Fuso will face a reshuffle. Brother Chiba must be mentally prepared."

Qianye Longjing's eyes narrowed and he nodded slowly.

"I hope that Fuso Kingdom will have its own super strong man in the future."

Takeda Takashi said meaningfully: "Brother Chiba is a top swordsman, a swordsman of skill, the closest to that realm. If you need help, just ask, and the Takeda family guarantees that we will respond."

"I, Chiba Ryujing, appreciate the kindness of Master Takeda."

Qianba Ryui said solemnly: "I am also working hard to step into that realm. In fact, it is not just me, Mr. Momoi, and your family's Okita-kun also hope to go further."

"The series of events that happened during this period made me understand a truth, that is, if there is no strong enough power to protect you, the so-called glory and wealth will ultimately be like a mirror."
