Although they had the support of Tony, Steve, and the Mann team, V and Jack were still in a very embarrassed state when they left the Kanbi Building in the end. It could almost be said that they fought their way out against Arasaka's security.
As for the reason, it is not surprising. Arasaka Saburo, the father and son of the Arasaka family, passed away at the age of 158. His 82-year-old youngest son Arasaka Yorinobu launched a gorgeous rebellion against his father and personally strangled the man who ruled Japan and even half of the world to death.
Emperor Arasaka.
Just like the oath and ideal he made more than fifty years ago, he overthrew the rule and oppression of the world by corporate giants and directly attacked the leaders of the chaebols.
When Arasaka Yorinobu was young, he and four other heirs of Japan's top chaebols at the time received training and study in a dojo called Terenka. Their teacher taught them to understand the cruel truth of the world and how to question it.
The media, doubting authority, builds up their spirit of resistance.
Although the teacher named Hanaka Kenjiro eventually committed suicide with eight bullets, his education for these five students was successful.
Five heirs of the chaebol family established a brotherhood called "Iron Flower" and secretly began to resist the rule of the chaebol.
They hid, planned, trained, and fought; day and night, they worked hard and never slacked off.
Although this earned them accolades as a secret revolutionary group and some people joined them, the war against corporate giants and plutocratic giants never seemed promising.
During this process, in order to protect his comrades, Arasaka Yorinobu, one of the founders, withdrew from Iron Lotus Flower. Although he maintained contact with his comrades, he still established a group called "Steel Dragon" in Tokyo.
” organization, and continued to resist Arasaka’s rule.
It is a very painful thing to rebel against one's original family, but Arasaka Yorinobu's hatred for that family is deep-rooted and even unforgettable.
He clearly remembers that when he graduated from the University of Tokyo at the age of 21, Saburo Arasaka told him the truth about the Arasaka Group and his vision to conquer the world with it. This undoubtedly greatly shocked the young Arasaka Yori at the time.
declare.
"Lai Xuanjun, you know that the Arasaka security business is what makes our company famous, right? Well... But it is not because of it that the company becomes strong. It is Arasaka Bank that makes the company strong. I know that as long as there is enough extortion and politics
With the support of influence, and by killing specific people and massacring workers in specific companies, we can restore the glory of the Japanese Empire and make Japan the largest superpower in the world."
Arasaka Yorinobu clearly remembers how shocked he was when he heard Arasaka Saburo say these words.
Unlike his brother Arasaka Kei who supported his father, Arasaka Yorinobu was very disgusted with his father's ideas, and this was the beginning of his rebellion against Arasaka Saburo.
However, although they won the battle, they never saw any hope of victory in this war against the company.
This is a desperate war, a war with no hope in sight.
It wasn't until the fourth corporate war broke out that they felt that their goals were not so far-fetched...
Arasaka Yorinobu has been resisting his father and the Arasaka Group. For this reason, his half-brother Arasaka Kei felt extremely humiliated. He even publicly declared that he would execute his younger brother to wash away the family's shame, and that he would
He serves as a test subject for the Soul Killer.
But the result was that Kei Arasaka died in the Fourth Corporate War, and the Arasaka Group also lost to Military Technology in that war.
Although the nuclear bomb exploded in Night City destroyed Arasaka Tower, it was unable to destroy Saburo Arasaka's ambitions. This also made Arasaka Yorinobu clearly realize that it was impossible to destroy the behemoth Arasaka Group from the outside.
For this reason, he returned to his family and eased his relationship with Saburo Arasaka through his sister, hoping to find opportunities to destroy the Arasaka Group from within the family.
As for the relic chip, it was just another attempt by him to resist his father.
It's just that Arasaka Yorinobu didn't expect that this move that he thought would fail would actually bring a huge opportunity to him.
Saburo Arasaka came to Night City in a light car and met with Yorinobu Arasaka alone with only his bodyguard.
After meeting Yorinobu, he drove away Goro Takemura, who was doing his duty faithfully, with the idea that the family scandal should not be made public. He wanted to reprimand his son, but he was pinched by his own son in front of the witness of three thieves on the TV wall.
die.
The rebellious son of the Arasaka Group finally launched a magnificent rebellion against his father and killed the old king on the throne.
Now, Arasaka Yorinobu, who has been the de facto heir to the Arasaka Group...or the empire called Arasaka for more than fifty years, finally took over the empire he had always wanted to destroy from his father who he did not like.
of crown.
Arasaka Yorinobu is only one step away from his former ideal.
But after taking this step, will he implement his ideals and destroy this behemoth corporate giant that he has always wanted to destroy, or will he put on the crown and the dragon slayer eventually become an evil dragon?
There were not many choices before Arasaka Yorinobu, but fortunately he had enough time to think about how to make a choice.
After all, he is the only surviving son and heir of Saburo Arasaka. The only ones who can threaten him are Arasaka Michiko, Arasaka's daughter, and his half-sister, who is also his only real relative in the Arasaka family, Arasaka Hana.
son.
But before that, Arasaka Yorinobu needs to clean up the mess behind his father's murder.
Although he is the only heir to Saburo Arasaka, he is not the only one to inherit the Arasaka Group.
If the news of his father's murder breaks out, it will obviously affect his ability to take over the Arasaka Group. If nothing else, Takemura Goro, a loyal bodyguard, will definitely kill him, the murderer of his father, as soon as possible.
At this time, the three little thieves who came to steal the relic were undoubtedly the best candidates to dump the blame.
Arasaka Yorinobu did not hesitate to place the death of Saburo Arasaka on V and others, and ordered the entire Arasaka security force of the Amanbi Building to pursue the three of them, followed immediately by Arasaka from all over the Night City.
force.
This was a real chase, different from the two or three kittens in the game. What was chasing V and the others this time was not just a few drones and cars...
Arasaka dispatched all the armed forces they could use in Night City, vowing to kill the madmen who dared to assassinate Emperor Arasaka.
One is to cover up the truth about Arasaka Yorinobu's father-killing, and the other is that the leader of the Arasaka Group was assassinated, and the Arasaka Group was disgraced, so some means must be used to save face.
As a result, v and the others have become the best surprise targets for the Arasaka Group, and killing them with the most cruel means can also deter other corporate giants who are ready to take action because of the murder of Saburo Arasaka.
But thanks to Steve's advance arrangement of the Mann team's response, after V, Jack and Tony rushed out of the Cyanbi Building and drove out of the parking lot in a somewhat embarrassed manner, they encountered no obstacles along the way.
.
Rebecca took the two smart rifles that Tony made for her and easily knocked down the drones that were chasing them. After Mann also killed several chasing vehicles with his hand cannon, they escaped without encountering anything.
A decent chase.
Although the Arasaka Group mobilized all the armed forces in Night City to pursue them, due to the failure of the Fourth Corporate War, Arasaka's forces in Night City were affected a lot, such as Military Technology, Kang Tao and other parties.
The hands of the giants are also stretched out here.
Although Arasaka was able to use a large security force for street mercenaries to pursue V and others, they still could not use their military power unscrupulously in Night City.
After all, you don't know whether Arasaka used so much armed force to hunt down the assassins, or to physically eliminate other competitors.
You must know that this is Night City in 2077. The nuclear bomb used by Johnny Silverhand to blast Arasaka Tower was sponsored by military technology. The legendary mercenary Morgan Blackhand was also dispatched to help deal with Adam, who was already the head of Arasaka's security at the time.
·Heavy Hammer, and provided all kinds of help to Johnny Silverhand, which allowed them to successfully send the nuclear bomb into Arasaka Tower.
It can be said that since the first corporate war began when terrorists were hired to kidnap negotiators of rival companies, these super giants have started a business war model with no lower limit.
The business war you think is about sitting in front of the screen, manipulating the stock market and initiating mergers and acquisitions, but the real business war does not play tricks on you at all, and directly dispatches armed forces to shovel your territory!
It is precisely because of the deterrence of military technology, Kontao and other giant companies that Arasaka did not send out large-scale armed forces to hunt down V and others, but they still mobilized all armed forces to blockade, and Arasaka's cyber ninjas
He has been chasing them like a ghost in hanging boots.
It wasn't until they escaped from the city limits of Night City that they got rid of Arasaka's chasing troops. Although arriving outside the city was equivalent to liberating Arasaka's force restrictions, the desert outside the city, known as the bad land, was endless.
Yes, trying to find someone here is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack.
Even if Arasaka mobilizes all his strength, it would take ten days and a half to find someone in the bad land without even being able to find a shadow, let alone that it is impossible for Arasaka to mobilize all the security forces to find someone.
It is true that Arasaka has the most powerful security force in the world, but this powerful force needs to defend Arasaka's branches around the world, and at the same time undertake a large number of security services, which has led to the
They don't have much power at their disposal...
In addition to confronting other giant companies in the city and strengthening security forces to guard the company's important properties and industries, there are only a few security teams that can be sent to find people.
Of course, this kind of security team usually consists of at least a dozen fully armed Arasaka security personnel, equipped with smart firearms produced by Arasaka itself and military prosthetics that street gangsters would envy to drool, plus the same or double the number
With a security robot and several drones, such a security team is enough to intimidate anyone.
Even in Night City, street gangs with a few hundred members or Badlands Wanderer families simply don't have the capital to fight against them.
Even the best mercenaries in Night City, the elite mercenaries from the Afterlife Bar, without more than twice the number of people and working together, would have a hard time defeating such a small team.
But taking down such a security team is also an extremely lucrative business for mercenaries or wandering families, not to mention various smart firearms and military prosthetics, security robots and drones, and security guards
The vehicles and other supplies equipped by the team are quite valuable and top-notch goods.
This is also why V and Jack received the mission to attack the military technology team before, because there are always people who will take risks.
Of course, the prerequisite for doing this is that you can clean up your affairs, avoid being discovered by the company, and be able to withstand the company's retaliation after being discovered.
However, such a team may be able to deal with other people, but if you want to capture V, Jack and the Mann team, you need to think about it. After all, they were the ones who teamed up to kill the military technology team before and grabbed a large number of valuable items.
Everything, even two combat mechs, although they were both damaged.
If you add Iron Man and Captain America, a team can only deliver food.
Because of this, everyone hiding in a prepared hiding place in the bad land did not worry about their own safety.
"Yorinobu Arasaka actually killed his father. To be honest, I have never experienced such a stab in my life! If my mother knew that I was doing such a thing, she would have to break my legs with a gun!" Sitting down.
Jack on the sofa was pouring whiskey into his mouth and talking about his mother.
Jack's mother, Mrs. Wells, is a very powerful and courageous woman. You only need to think about how she can open a bar in a place like Night City without gang forces involved, and you can imagine what this woman is like.
How awesome it is.
Jack was afraid of her, just like a mouse meets a cat. It was precisely because he was afraid of his mother's nagging and worries that he quit the gang and became a mercenary.
But these days, every profession is about putting your head on your waistband to earn a living, and mercenaries are not much better.
When Rebecca heard what Jack said, the violent lolita immediately laughed and knocked on the table and mocked Jack: "I didn't expect you to be so big and afraid of my mother! But don't worry, wait until I finish this."
With one vote, I can earn enough money to buy you two of the latest military prosthetics after your mother breaks your legs."
"Forget it, I still can't accept replacing my arms and legs with prosthetics. Although the mantis sword and gorilla arms are both handsome, I still want to box! Free fighting relies on pure physical strength.
!You know! Pure physical power!" Jack seemed to be somewhat resistant to replacing his body with a prosthetic body.
Rebecca on the side seemed to have lingering fears about this, even though she almost got two gorilla arms.
Although they were all surprised by the accident in this business, everyone felt at ease again when Queen Rogge of the next life appeared in front of them to contact them and said that this business was her plate.
After all, all the mercenaries in Night City know that Rogge is the mercenary queen of Night City and the top middleman. If she accepts this business, there will definitely be no problems.
Even if there is a problem, Rogge can cover it up and won't let them suffer anyway.
But what was different from their optimism was that Tony and Steve were frowning and thinking about what kind of impact and changes Saburo Arasaka's death would bring to the world, and how they would pass the test.
