Let's resolve things.
In the night…
Ed and other are gathered in the old Warehouse near the port.
There was weird silence between all the people present there.
Every one was waiting for one person.
Inari…
" How long we have to wait for his arrival…" ed voice echoed in the silence of Warehouse.
Every one was waiting for inari arrival .
After a while inari entered in the Wearhouse
" Sorry.., i came late…'
But then grav speak out ,"so you are going to finish me off..?,huh..? You smuggler.."
Inari sigh " we have a clear missunderstaing here. We are not From the tiger den gang. We are different organisation.
We are kuroko.."
But on the corner of Wearhouse where ed was seating he thought " it not we it's you…"
And then grav look at inari face and start to laugh aloud, "kuroko..! Ha..! Are you some kind of Ninja or what huh.." and then grav voice deppen up "don't joke around me.. you criminal…" he looks at straight in the inari eyes.
" You don't believing what I am talking about right " inari asked to the grav.
Grav quietly nonded in his confident attitude.
After an short exhale inari stand up.
He gose toward injured yoshimura and open his plam asking for knife yoshimura has.
Yoshimura gasped because of confusion but not late he realised why inari is asking for his in kinfe.
Without any doubt in his mind he handed his kinfe to inari, with a subtle warring "Don't over do it ,he is totally normal human unaware of such power."
Inari nodded and moved to the grav, "so you said I am laying.., right..?"
"Yes, abosoulte." Grav was confident in his words.
" How dumb…" and then inari cut his plam by knife and blood start to run down touching the dirty ground…
Making it red..
Dark, thick blood was dropping on the ground, from inari bleeding hand.
And a a crilcle From around inari.
It start to make some symbol by themselves…
And then an big red light with black flame burst out.
" What just happened..!" Ed thought in his mind.
But then that light cleared up and a figure was behind inari.
It was Red in clour no.
The skin of the figure was red itself…
His face was looking wise and angry at same time.
It had big red nose with giant yellow eyes, which looks like as they are tunting your soul itself..
But most most noticeable feature of the figure was his two wings.
Ed never saw such a figure..
He even can't name it .
But then jihgen who woke up by noise and look at figure behind inari and shouted "a tengu..!?"
Ed looked at jihgen to ask something but then he gets uncounsis by seeing that figure.
"What the hell..?"
On other hand grav was totally treffied by the visual it was too overwhelming for him to comprehend.
And the tengu was emiting something smiler to a wave.
It was so strong that it was effecting grav senses .
His body start to feel numb and vision start to Black out constantly…
And voice unknown to him was screaming inside his head.
It was like he will go crazy.
"Stop it inari..!"
Yoshimura shouted.
Which break inari concentration and the tengu disappeared.
Only thing was blood on the ground around inari.
"Sorry I over do it I think..,we should wait till he gets little normal to answer.." and inari go out,
" Don't forget to call me I am outside." And he go outside.
Then yoshimura go and give a bottle of water to lan " go give that man his heart must be pumping like crazy it will help him to get clam "
lan grab it and go to the grav, on other hand Ed who was confused asked for a explanation about what happened.
" What happened here and what are tengu..?"
Yoshimura look at him " it is little complicated but tengu are an type of yokai who have brain in simple words.
But…
The tengu you saw wasn't a real one it was more of imitation of it by oni blood magic.
Real one are far more dangerous.
But also wisest ."
Saying it yoshimura sat down "now let's wait for him waking up." But ed asked him another question.
" But then why inari summon real one..?"
Yoshimura scratch his neck " surely today you are asking slot of questions.
They are some specific rules about summoning a tengu but inari Dont fill any of them.
Since it was impossible for him Okinawa teach him this, oh…also tengu are merciless are known for being merciless against people with pride."
"So that why inari talked like that to that man.." ed muttered.
And then ed also say down waiting.
Jihgen was still unconscious.
lan was treating grav and inari was looking at the dark Black empty bay.
Ed sometimes stand up and walked around the warehouse.
" By the way what are kuroko exactly are…? Inari told us they are special officers."
Yoshimura first time clinched his teeth "now one more question..?!, whatever i don't know myself except they was formed after oni civil war.."
ed turned " Wait..? You are telling me that there was a Oni civil war happened..?"
" Yes.. man I was a young lad back then..!, although I didn't take part in war but we did help Okinawa fraction ones.." yoshimura answered.
"Oh.. intresting..but what do you mean by we..?"
Yoshimura look at ed and then answer with sigh " I mean me and my father.." yoshimura voice has a little sad undertone.
"But isn't you are nameless..?"
Now it started to annoy Yoshimura,"who said that oni can't adopt.!"
"oh..my bad" ed then seat silent.
After hour or what pass by and they all was still seating.
Then lan shouted "he is normal now..!"
Inari who was outside come in hearing shout.
" So he is totally normal now..?"
lan look at grav " I guess so.."
Inari then come near to grav and look at him "so did you saw some smuggler doing this..?"
Grav was panting.
" I take it as no..,"
But grav suddenly started to smile and chukle.
" What happened..?"
But grav ignore it and asked "what really you people are..?"
It stunned inari but he answered " we are those who you can't see."
"So that mean supernatural thing exists..?"
"Yeah you can say in that way but I don't want to talk about that what I want is your information." Inari asked.
"First you."
Inari look at him "so you want equal trade..?"
" You can say something like that.." grav answered.
"Okay" inari said " see we are from a organisation who deal with supernatural thing in this country.recently our people are getting lost in investigation of finding them we reached to the Yokohama. "
" That is ..?" Grav wasn't expecting something so short he was getting something is hidden under those words.
Which is actually right since inari didn't told grav about oni.
But inari just nodded although he doesn't like to lie but also he can't expose such world to a normal person.
It's will against rules.
And also he already exposed a lot.
But then some unexpected happened.
Grav decided give his information without any further questions or doubt.
Ed really thought that grav actually change his attitude due to inari using his power although he exactly can't say it.
Grav start his explanation of rather exchange of information from his sides he started with his entery in japan.
" I arrived at japan as I told earlier in our first encounter. At first it was really hard to find any clue about the tiger den gang and but then I infiltrated Port as worker.
I used fake identity.
And start looking for clues at the Port.
But I didn't Stop there I searched through out different cities on japan such as Nagasaki, Kyoto and Tokyo.
I also have to go against some yakuza.
But then the real clue I got was from very unexpected place.
One time I was in very empty corner of Tokyo it was almost night time.
When I saw a person giving that thing..
I chased after him and found out that he gets those stuffs from Yokohama and then I moved here."
Inari give it a thought " interesting, you know what that i forgot to add but I searched about tiger den gang and I got know that they have a connection to yang family from China."
"Wait why a Chinese family is involved here..?" Ed asked.
Inari rub his head a little " it is little complicated to explain but, in simple words there is a power struggle there." Then inari moved to the grav "and now it is Time to give more information…"
Grav laugh "yeah.. that is our deal isn't it first you are really smart …"
Ed was confused with those words but lan isn't.
He gets why inari told grav very little information so he could get more in exchange…
" So when I got here I started to get lead i always roam around the po
rt and that how I overheard that tiger den gang operator meet someone in one of old warehouse.
And that how I encountered you people but…
More important is that I found out where operator lives and that is..
China Town, Yokohama…"
