Chapter 537: Chapter 536: The Purpose of Chiba Susumu
In the car, Xu Xin was on the call with Xu Yunshan.
He briefly explained the incident at the entertainment club to his grandfather before hearing Xu Yunshan say, "Pass the phone to Mr. Yang."
Xu Xin immediately handed the phone to Yang Fei.
Yang Fei took the phone and heard Xu Yunshan ask, "Mr. Yang, what are you planning to do next?"
Yang Fei apologized, "I’m sorry, I might have caused trouble for your Xu family’s business in Japan."
"Not necessarily." Chiba Susumu interjected from the side, "As I said before, I would like to partner with the Xu family."
Yang Fei was startled and looked at Chiba Susumu with confusion.
Chiba Susumu added, "But for now, you should have them lay low for a while. The Yamamoto, Kagaya, and the Fujita family will definitely look for them at the first opportunity."
Yang Fei stared at Chiba Susumu but spoke to Xu Yunshan on the phone, "There are no further instructions for now, lay low and wait for my call."
"Alright, be careful yourself, Mr. Yang, especially since you’re in Japan," Xu Yunshan advised.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Fei looked at Chiba Susumu and said, "From your tone just now, it seems you could mediate and prevent the Xu family from being involved?"
Chiba Susumu smiled slightly, unafraid, and replied to Yang Fei, "Not only can the Xu family avoid involvement, but even the Umekawa family’s issues could be resolved peacefully."
Upon hearing this, Yang Fei laughed, shook his head, and said, "Young lady, it’s not that I underestimate you, but you’re boasting too big. With just a twenty-something like you, can you intervene in major events like preventing the destruction of the Umekawa family?
Moreover, as far as I know, the Chiba family is barely ranked among the first-rate aristocratic families in Japan’s Martial World. If it weren’t for your family’s large business, you would have already been ousted from the top ranks of Japan’s aristocratic families.
So, regarding the Umekawa family’s issues, even if the Chiba family’s clan leader stood up, he might not change the situation, yet you make such bold claims in front of me?"
By the end, Yang Fei’s face even showed an expression of incredulity and amusement.
She’s pretty, but why does she love to boast so much?
"Young lady?"
Chiba Susumu was taken aback, a mocking and amused glint flashed deep in her animated eyes, and she retorted, "As far as I know, you’re only twenty-four, aren’t you? We’re the same age, and you’re calling me a young lady?"
Yang Fei snorted, "In my eyes, you are a naïve young lady."
"If I were just a naïve young lady, how would I have guessed you are Boss Tang, the leader of the International Madman? If I were just a naïve young lady, how would I know that the Yamamoto, Kagaya, Fujita, and other families’ ultimate goal in targeting the Umekawa Family is to draw out the Madman King like you?"
Chiba Susumu’s eyes fixed on Yang Fei’s, continuing, "If I were an inexperienced young lady, then I would be even less likely to know that all this is driven by Sky Net behind the scenes."
Yang Fei’s pupils contracted, and he exuded a fierce and domineering aura that seemed to drop the temperature in the entire carriage by several degrees.
Xu Xin was chilled to the bone, shivering.
Chiba Susumu also felt her hair stand on end, experiencing an unprecedented fear.
Yet she still tried to appear calm, particularly in her clear eyes, which reflected a wise and profound light.
Yang Fei looked at the young and remarkably beautiful face close at hand, and the wise and profound look in her clear eyes sparked an absurd thought in his heart.
It was as if an old but wise soul inhabited the body of this beautiful young woman.
"You know about Sky Net?" Yang Fei fixed his gaze on Chiba Susumu’s eyes and asked deliberately.
Chiba Susumu smiled and nodded, "Your question is too childish. If I knew you were the Madman King, how could I not know Sky Net? The attack on the Madman Organization two years ago was the work of Sky Net. Now, Sky Net has become omnipresent, the true overlord of the global Underworld, and the feud between Sky Net and the International Madman has lately been a popular topic on the Underworld Forum."
Yang Fei laughed at himself.
Yes, that question was quite idiotic of me to ask.
"How do you know so much? Aside from being the daughter of the Chiba family, what is your real identity?" Yang Fei asked curiously, looking at her.
Since the incident at the Umekawa Taro family, Yang Fei had an intuition that this matter wasn’t simple.
Especially since other members of the International Madman Organization had also returned to their homes, troubled by family affairs, this made him more cautious, feeling that this matter might be targeted at him.
Having had the chance to participate with these young people from Japan today, and learning this information from Chiba Susumu, Yang Fei felt it coincided with his own suspicions and didn’t doubt it much. Now he was more curious about Chiba Susumu’s identity.
With his level of Martial Arts Cultivation, he couldn’t detect any hint of Martial Arts from Chiba Susumu.
This truly surprised him.
Coming from the Chiba family, a Martial Arts Family, and not knowing martial arts, was in itself a puzzling matter.
What was key, her demeanor was very different from that of an ordinary martial arts-aristocratic daughter who lacked martial arts skills.
Could it be that she, like Qin Yanyang, practiced some secret technique that allowed her to hide her aura so well that even he couldn’t detect it?
No!
Although Qin Yanyang hid her aura very well, Yang Fei could still sense that she was extraordinary.
But the Chiba Susumu in front of him didn’t show any flaws.
Even with the most direct perception, he could not detect anything unusual about this woman.
Yet, paradoxically, she was so confident, facing him, facing the situation before, she remained completely calm.
Yang Fei found it very hard to believe that a woman without strong power on her own could have such calm composure and strong confidence.
"Is the identity of the daughter of the Chiba family not enough to warrant a conversation with Boss Tang?" Chiba Susumu asked with a smiling eye.
Yang Fei shook his head, "At least not enough to talk about cooperation with me."
"Did you ever think that the one talking cooperation with you is actually not seeking your help, but offering you an opportunity?"
Yang Fei frowned.
Xu Xin also showed a look of surprise.
"Sky Net has grown to an incredibly powerful extent, and the Japan Martial World has even been infiltrated by Sky Net to a great degree. In such circumstances, how can your Madman Organization, with only a handful of members left, contend with the giant that is Sky Net?" Chiba Susumu asked, looking at Yang Fei.
Yang Fei said coldly, "Having more people doesn’t necessarily mean greater strength."
Chiba Susumu nodded, "That’s right, in fights, having more people on one side doesn’t necessarily mean victory. But as far as I know, the top fighters within Sky Net are in no way inferior to you in strength. Moreover, do you know who the real mastermind behind Sky Net is?"
Yang Fei no longer underestimated Chiba Susumu before his eyes.
These were not things that an ordinary girl from an aristocratic family of her age could possibly know.
"So some things can’t be done alone. In this world, no matter the industry, it’s all about cooperation and mutual benefit.
You can’t defeat Sky Net alone, and even if your wife helped you, it wouldn’t be possible to fight against Sky Net, you might even drag your wife and the entire Divine Continent Country into an endless abyss.
Only if both our sides join forces to face Sky Net do we stand a chance of victory. Boss Tang, oh no, Mr. Yang Fei, are you interested in cooperating with us?"
Yang Fei looked at the confident Chiba Susumu, his lips curving upwards, "Right now, what I’m most interested in is your true identity. If you don’t have an identity that I deem significant, all that you’ve just said is nonsense."
"Have you heard of Penglai?" Chiba Susumu slowly said.
