"Alan Kure... is this guy Edward Kure, or the current successor of the Original Kure?"
Kure Erioh slowly frowned when he saw Alan Kure.
The Kure Clan and the Western Faction didn't have much contact, so he asked Kure Shiba of the Kure Clan main family.
"Yes."
Kure Shiba nodded, and Kure Erioh's frown deepened.
"If I remember correctly, the successor of Kaiso (Rebirth) seems to require the succession to start from a very young age-and Edward Kure... that guy isn't very old either, is he? If he's already found such a young successor, does that mean that once he's fully received the succession, he'll immediately have to find a new successor..."
Hearing Kure Erioh say this, Kure Shiba also sighed.
He was also frowning.
Although it sounded like they were discussing the succession of something called 'Kaiso', judging by their expressions, they seemed to be talking about a particularly serious and heavy matter.
-Kaiso is such a heavy thing!
It is a secret technique among secret techniques that is incredibly cruel and inhumane!
The Kure Clan and the Kure Clan main family long ago gave up on passing this down, but the Western Faction has been persistent with this technique, and even...
"The Western Faction was somewhat restrained at the very beginning when the family hadn't split yet, but after the Kure Clan split into three, their actions became increasingly reckless... Kaiso was originally only passed down when a person was past middle age or even older, and there was absolutely no other way, but now they are all starting the succession in their prime!"
Kure Shiba slowly closed his eyes.
"...And the purpose of doing this is to ensure that the Kaiso successors, whom the Western Faction calls the Kaikai-sha (Reincarnated Corpses), always remain in their prime, which is the peak state of their physical condition!"
Hearing Kure Shiba say this, even Kure Erioh, whose temper had improved with age, had a distorted expression fueled by anger.
"-Those damned bastards!"
Kure Erioh's voice was much lower and filled with killing intent!
Kure Shiba sighed and opened his eyes again.
"However, this matter is pretty much done here-your successor, the young man named Rikuto, was killed by the Western Faction, right?"
"I don't think you will tolerate this, and you won't miss this opportunity to have a member of your family 'accidentally' kill the other party in this arena. After this, our two factions will join forces to besiege the Western Faction... Today, we will interrupt the succession of the Original Kure here, and in a while, we will completely end this sin originating from our Kure Clan."
"In the past, our Kure Clan main family and the Western Faction were evenly matched, so we couldn't eliminate them, but now with the addition of your Kure Clan, we will have a far more absolute advantage!"
Hearing Kure Shiba say this, Kure Erioh shook his head.
Seeing his reaction, Kure Shiba was stunned.
He didn't think Kure Erioh was questioning the joint siege, as that was something that had been discussed beforehand, so...
"What, do you think the young man named Raian in the arena won't be able to defeat the other party?"
Hearing Kure Shiba say this, Kure Erioh smiled.
"That's impossible... If Raian a few months ago might still make a mistake due to carelessness, the current Raian probably won't take too long to take down that guy... Raian is the most talented Kure I have ever seen! Even the Original Kure... heh heh, I think he would be at most at Raian's level."
Kure Erioh said this, and then he shook his head again.
"However, one of the main orchestrators of this competition is Jaden... I already stated within the clan that if a request from Jaden conflicts with my patriarch command, Jaden's request takes precedence! If necessary, directly abandon my command!"
Ah, this...
Kure Shiba widened his eyes in surprise, and Kure Erioh gradually regained his composure, looking expressionlessly at the inside of the venue.
"This competition does not allow intentional killing. If Raian truly kills the other party, he will be judged as having lost, right? If Jaden wants to pursue a record of perfect victory, then Raian will not kill the other party."
Hearing Kure Erioh say this, Kure Shiba couldn't help but ask.
"Do you really place so much importance on Jaden?"
Although Kure Shiba had heard of the names Izuru Kamukura and Jaden Yuki before he came, honestly, he didn't think these two guys could be ridiculously strong.
They are, ultimately, just powerful martial artists.
For an assassin like Kure, no matter how strong you are, can you be stronger than a sniper rifle bullet?
Even if you have truly surpassed that level of firearm, can you be stronger than cannons, poison gas, incendiary bombs, and the like?
And besides that, there are some other secret techniques...
The modern era is not ancient times.
There are countless ways to kill so-called strong individuals!
So...
"Jaden is just one person, right? Is he truly worth this much attention? Or are you trying to win him over for the sake of the Kengan Association, Totsuki, and Shinomiya behind him?"
Hearing Kure Shiba say this, Kure Erioh shook his head.
"No, I know you can't imagine what I'm about to say, but you only need to know that I issued such a command not at all to win over the Kengan Association, Totsuki, or Shinomiya."
Kure Erioh's words made Kure Shiba fall into surprise once again.
Because...
If it wasn't for those things, then wouldn't that mean...
-Wouldn't that mean Jaden, relying on his own strength alone, surpassed the Kengan Association, Totsuki, and Shinomiya in value!?
Kure Erioh didn't explain further, seemingly tacitly agreeing with Kure Shiba's conjecture. Then, he only watched the start of the battle in the arena, and then, even before Raian Kure and Alan Kure clashed, he turned and walked toward the passage behind him.
"Aren't you going to watch?"
Kure Shiba followed him when he saw Kure Erioh leave.
"No need to watch... I plan to go thank Jaden now, and if you want to know what kind of existence he truly is, you'll probably find out very soon."
"And... thank him?"
Kure Shiba was a little confused by Kure Erioh's meaning.
And Kure Erioh, with his back to the arena, half his body covered by the shadows inside the passage, revealed a smile like that of an evil spirit under the shadow's cover.
There was no need to watch this match any further.
Because Kure Erioh already knew the outcome of this match at a glance.
"Yes, thank him, because that Alan Kure... is already a dead man!"
