I Became Park Jeong-ui’s Nephew - Chapter 169
Only Krnovel
He became Park Jeong-ui’s nephew. – (169)
“Shall we take a gamble?”
“I think it would be best to stop. If you stir up a hornet’s nest for no reason… ”
“No, this is the only way we can survive.”
This is Japan,
The yakuza continued their conversation with serious expressions.
The secret to the yakuza’s expansion of power in Japan was their ability to create an image that suited the times. As the Sengoku period ended, many samurai became unemployed and these warriors were paid to maintain public order in the town.
They say it’s about maintaining peace, but it’s just a territorial fight.
Don’t criminals usually package their actions with romance and morality?
Just as European knights who only knew how to fight glorified themselves with chivalry, the Japanese yakuza also created an image of themselves as swordsmen.
Before the Meiji Restoration, criminal groups that depended on the shogunate transformed into ‘extreme right-wing conservatives’ after the Meiji Restoration.
Some yakuza hit the jackpot by betting on the Sonno Yoi faction, which aimed to overthrow the shogunate and exalt the monarchy.
We are not gangsters, but revolutionaries who overthrew the shogunate and restored the prestige of the Japanese emperor. Isn’t that a very plausible image-making?
But the good times only last for a while,
With the fall of Japan, Japanese yakuza faced a great crisis.
At the time of Japan’s defeat, Japan was teeming with Koreans and Taiwanese, and naturally, there were many criminal organizations centered around them.
The US military government supported them to suppress the Japanese yakuza.
It was natural that the Japanese yakuza who had been sucking honey while shouting “Long Live His Majesty the Emperor” became the target of the US military government.
The problem then is,
If the United States gritted its teeth and pushed ahead with suppression, wouldn’t the Yakuza have been destroyed?
However, because the US military government disbanded and reduced the Japanese police force, an environment was created in which organized crime could run wild.
The three-way war between Japanese, Taiwanese, and Korean yakuza has begun, and the Japanese government is the one that has added fuel to the fire.
“We will distribute free meal coupons to underprivileged villages!!”
“We will strengthen social welfare policies!!”
As factories left and workers followed, the city became a ghost town. The Japanese government distributed coupons for free meals to attract people to the city.
Beggars and homeless people who had been wandering around shantytowns began to flock to the city. What could the yakuza have done in this environment?
Go into the city and recruit beggars and homeless people.
As the US military government’s and the Japanese government’s major misdeeds continued one after another, the city became a battleground for the yakuza’s vested interests.
“Haa~ I want to stop fighting now.”
“We also need a stable income”
The problem is that the yakuza don’t want to fight for vested interests either.
Is the gangsters’ fight for power just a simple fist fight?
This is literally a matter of livelihood, and they know that if they lose they will die, so they use guns, knives, and even throw grenades as a last resort.
It is literally a battlefield, and the merchants caught in the middle of it are also suffering damage.
“Hey!! Stop it!! We can’t do business because you guys fight every day?!!”
“Fight so that we don’t get hurt!! If we get hurt, where are you going to get your protection money?!!”
Not a very good development for the yakuza,
If merchants continue to suffer losses, who will pay the protection fee?
As the war drags on, the yakuza also suffers great losses, and now even criminal groups have realized that it is best to establish a stable income system rather than killing each other in war.
The problem is how to build that system.
First of all, Japan’s distribution structure is tightly controlled by a company called Daehan Transportation.
If we consider the commercial value derived from that distribution structure, we can see that Daehan Transportation dominates Japan’s economic system. Then, who should the yakuza serve as their leader?
If you want to make a living, even just a little, you have to bow your head to Daehan Transportation.
Above all, if they continue to cause trouble in the city and damage the commercial districts as they are now, there is a possibility that Daehan Transportation will take action.
“I don’t need any thugs in my city.”
The head of state of Korea is a person who would shake his head if he were a gangster.
Recently, South Korea has been swept by illegal immigrants and criminal organizations that trade drugs between cities and shantytowns.
Would it be different in Japan?
In fact, Daehan Transport received reports that Japanese merchants were suffering great losses from gangsters.
If the Japanese government fails to suppress the gangsters by mobilizing its police force, there is a possibility that Daehan Transport will take action directly.
The yakuza, feeling a sense of crisis, reached an agreement with each other and stopped the war.
Even if they are a gang, they are powerless against public authority.
The yakuza bowed their heads toward the person who would become their bread and butter.

“Your Majesty, a letter has arrived from Japan.”
“From Japan? Who sent it?”
“They are the ones who call themselves the Black Dragon Society.”
“Black Dragon Society? I think I’ve heard of it somewhere…”
The same routine that repeats itself today,
I received a letter from Japan.
The senders are the leaders of the Black Dragon Society, who on the surface appear to be a unified organization, but they are a group of Korean-Taiwanese-Japanese crime syndicate members, each with their own faction.
What business do those rascals have with me?
First, I read the letter written in Korean.
[Greetings to the Head of State of the Republic of Korea. You probably know what kind of organization we are. You also know that they are after our necks. However, Head of State, we are just ordinary people struggling to make a living.
Without a stable income, we have no choice but to kill and fight each other, and we have been fighting like that for over 20 years. But now we are tired and have no place to stand because of the opposition of the residents.
If the enemy can show us a little mercy, we will be content with that and live. We will also take the lead at any time for the benefit of Korea.]
“Pfft~ These guys are hilarious. You’re a gangster and you want to negotiate with me?”
I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
I am the one who dominates the distribution and commercial areas of Korea, China, Japan, and the Gulf. To those thugs who are desperately trying to steal a single piece of commercial area, I will seem like an absolute monarch.
So, you’re trying to make me the boss, so now I have to act as the boss of the gangsters.
Anyway, I decided to take this opportunity to clean up the trash.
‘Let’s gather them all in one place and destroy them all at once.’
The exact size of the Black Dragon Society is unknown, but according to research by the Central Intelligence Agency, it has approximately 300 organizations and 10,000 members.
At first glance, it seems to be of enormous scale,
But to me, who has experience in massacring 2 million people in Pyongyang, it is just a small group that will fly away if you blow on it.
Besides, these are the scum of society that move between shantytowns and the city center, causing chaos in public order. If we get rid of them, the Japanese won’t go crazy.
If you’ve made up your mind, just put it into action.
I made a direct call to the Japanese Prime Minister and asked for his cooperation.
“Prime Minister Nagao, I think I will have to go to Japan soon.”
[Yes? Your Majesty, what are you talking about all of a sudden?]
“I’ll tell you the reason later. It won’t be good if it gets out. I’ll tell you when the time comes. For now, just spread the word that I’m doing business in Japan.”
[All right.]
A few days later, Japanese Prime Minister Nagao announced the news of the South Korean leader’s visit to Japan.
Step 1 to reassure the trash,
The second phase of work is the announcement of the new city development plan.
Right now, the yakuza are hoping to get some soybeans from Daehan Transport, but to gather all the dung flies in one place, you need to throw out a bait that is similar to that.
First, we plan to purchase a shantytown in Japan and develop the area.
The yakuza rushed in, drooling.
They probably couldn’t imagine that it would become their grave, but they were currently digging a trap to bury the trash, so they didn’t reveal their true feelings.
⁕ ⁕ ⁕
“Okay, okay, move quickly. Don’t you know that the demolition order has been given?”
“Ah… I see.”
This is a shantytown in Japan,
The yakuza mobilized their gang members to drive out the local residents.
It is a well-known fact to everyone that this area is being developed, and the yakuza have bought up land in this area and planted members of their organization there.
Here they planned to build a building and a casino, over there they planned to build an entertainment establishment and apartments. Once the location for them to lie down was decided, they gathered in one place and toasted.
“Cheers to the development and glory of the Black Dragon Society!!”
“Cheers!!”
“And a toast to our boss!!”
“Hey!! Boss, be careful what you say!! Call me Marshal!!”
“Oops~ Sorry. Cheers to our nemesis!!”
“Hahahaha~”
The atmosphere is gradually ripening,
Now, wouldn’t it be possible to begin a rosy life of sucking honey under Daehan Transportation without killing or fighting each other?
The war that had lasted for over 20 years ended today, everyone relaxed and their fate was decided here.
About 30,000 Japanese police officers approached the shantytown, followed by 10,000 combat police officers hired by Daehan Transport.
30,000 Japanese police officers surrounded the shantytown area.
As soon as the siege was completed, 10,000 riot police entered the shantytown at once.
The drunken and completely careless gangsters were rounded up in one fell swoop, and hundreds managed to escape, but were caught by the Japanese police who had already surrounded them.
“Put your hands up and get on your knees!! Hurry up!!”
“This can’t be happening!!”
“We got hit!!”
Only then did the Black Dragon Society realize that they had been tricked.
Who would have guessed that the head of state of South Korea would buy a shantytown and set up a trap there to beat up those thugs?
Japanese public opinion was also shocked by the news that the yakuza had been wiped out.
[At around 1:34 AM yesterday, Japanese police and military police raided a shantytown where yakuza gangs were gathered. During the raid, 9,987 people, including yakuza bosses, were arrested, and 33 people resisted and were shot dead on the spot.]
“Wow~ Does this make sense?”
“The Korean enemy is really great. He just took down the yakuza that the Japanese government couldn’t solve for 25 years?”
“It’s not something that just anyone can do. Who would buy up a shantytown and plan to build a city there? It’s something that only the enemy of Korea can do.”
“Whew~ Anyway, does this mean that Japan is at peace?”
Japanese citizens breathed a sigh of relief.
The moment the ailment that had plagued Japan for 25 years disappeared, they didn’t notice.
The Yakuza are gone, but something even more terrifying is starting to take over the Japanese economy.
Daehan Transport now controls half of Japan’s distribution market and commercial and real estate markets.
Even in the past, the economic structure was dependent on Daehan Transportation, but this incident has made it even worse.
In effect, the boss who was the head of Korea came to rule Japan.
Even the Japanese now take it for granted.
Who is the person who defeated the yakuza and stabilized public order in Japan?
Merchants who had been exploited by the yakuza for a long time viewed the Korean leader as a liberator, and Japanese politicians had no choice but to go along with that trend.
Japan has a structure where politicians also receive support from the head of the Korean government.
Japanese intellectuals who knew the truth were shocked.
Does that mean that we should now portray Korea’s enemy as a monster that devours Japan?
The great villain who took control of Japan by winning over the hearts and minds of the Japanese people, now knows his tricks clearly but can do nothing about it.
