Chapter 839: Chapter 880 Negotiations
Koboto Kobayashi brought several of his loyal confidants to meet with Li Yifei, what they talked about, nobody knows, and inside the Yamaguchi Group, they didn’t even know Koboto Kobayashi had met with Golden Eagle.
Some people had already started to question Koboto Kobayashi’s capabilities, and today, once again during a major meeting, everyone was ready to criticize the recent actions taken by Koboto Kobayashi.
Before the meeting began, everyone received news that another branch had been attacked. Although not many people were injured or killed, the loss was severe, and according to those who survived, it was done by one person alone which made everyone instantly think of Golden Eagle.
The deterrent power of Golden Eagle against the Yamaguchi Group was immense. The last attack had caused them to lose face completely and even led to the death of the former president, Gonpachiro, Although Gonpachiro was mainly responsible for those events, it was still the biggest crisis the Yamaguchi Group had faced in many years, significantly damaging their reputation in Japan. Since Koboto Kobayashi took over the Yamaguchi Group, he had failed to restore the group’s reputation, which was the main reason for everyone’s dissatisfaction.
If it was Golden Eagle again, it would undoubtedly be another major crisis.
Everyone arrived in the conference room, each with a solemn expression, looking at Koboto Kobayashi, seated at the head. It was time they set aside their prejudices and faced this crisis together.
Koboto Kobayashi looked at everyone and said with a heavy tone, "I think you’ve all received the news. One of our divisions was attacked again, the losses are huge, and it seems to be the work of Golden Eagle."
Everyone felt even heavier, and one person said, "President, last time Golden Eagle didn’t leave a single survivor, but this time only three people died. This approach is different from the last time, maybe it wasn’t him?"
Koboto Kobayashi shook his head and replied, "It’s been confirmed that it was Golden Eagle’s doing. Last time, he didn’t leave any survivors because his wife was in a coma, but now she has woken up, yet she’s lost her memory and doesn’t recognize him as her husband, so he attacked again, but wasn’t as furious as last time."
"What do we do now?" Everyone looked at Koboto Kobayashi, as this was another major crisis, naturally, it was up to Koboto Kobayashi, the new president, to make a decision. If Koboto Kobayashi could resolve this crisis successfully, it would be for the best. If he couldn’t, it would show he wasn’t fit to be the president.
Koboto Kobayashi’s stern gaze swept across everyone in the room as he said in a low voice, "Last time, we promised to compensate Golden Eagle but haven’t taken any action yet; probably this is why Golden Eagle acted. So, this time, I think we should show some sincerity first. I hope no one objects?"
Regarding this, naturally, no one had any objections. Loss of money wasn’t an issue for the Yamaguchi Group; what mattered most now was recovering their reputation.
Koboto Kobayashi continued, "This time, I will take the initiative to negotiate with Golden Eagle, hoping to use my best efforts to restore our reputation."
Upon hearing this, everyone truly admired Koboto Kobayashi’s courage. After Gonpachiro’s death, they had also visited the scene; previously, they had no idea Gonpachiro had hidden so many experts, but even with so many experts, they all died at the hands of Golden Eagle. This showed just how dangerous Golden Eagle was. If they were the presidents, they wouldn’t dare to negotiate face-to-face with Golden Eagle.
Koboto Kobayashi glanced at everyone again and said, "That’s settled then. I hope no one drags me down this time."
Looking at Koboto Kobayashi’s fierce gaze, everyone suddenly felt that this new president was indeed very bold. If he could resolve this matter, fully supporting him would definitely not be a problem.
Koboto Kobayashi met with Li Yifei again, this time not alone but accompanied by two high-ranking members of the Yamaguchi Group, who also bravely followed him, though they were not Koboto Kobayashi’s direct subordinates.
Li Yifei wore a gold eagle mask, dressed in a loose tracksuit, which looked somewhat ordinary, but the mask provided enough intimidation.
Everyone communicated in Japanese, mastering multiple languages was essential for a super expert, otherwise it would be easy to be recognized when carrying out missions, so they had no problem communicating.
"Lord Golden Eagle, this kind of outright killing is really too much!" as soon as Koboto Kobayashi saw Li Yifei, he immediately began to reprimand him loudly.
This terrified the accompanying senior members enough, and the gaze revealed from behind Golden Eagle’s mask indeed became much more intense, sending a shiver down their spines.
Golden Eagle’s cold voice came from behind the mask, "President Koboto, I’ve already shown restraint this time. I’ve killed your former president; do you think I wouldn’t dare to kill you?"
Koboto Kobayashi stood up abruptly and exclaimed, "I acknowledge Lord Golden Eagle’s extraordinary abilities. If you really wanted to kill me, I wouldn’t have the power to fight back, but the Yamaguchi Group isn’t something to be bullied. If you force us into a corner, then we’re prepared to fight back. We in the Yamaguchi Group have tens of thousands of members, and you, Golden Eagle, are just one man; even if you kill some, you can’t kill us all at once. Then the rest of our members can infiltrate Huaxia. Your wife isn’t any kind of fighter, so if we get the chance, we could strike again, and next time we’ll make sure we kill your wife to avenge those of our group you’ve killed."
"Are you threatening me?" Li Yifei suddenly slapped his hand down, shattering the hardwood table in front of the four men, startling the two high-ranking members who jumped up, nearly ready to run. But in this moment of crisis, Koboto Kobayashi stood undaunted, staring defiantly at Li Yifei.
"It’s not a threat. Isn’t Lord Golden Eagle also threatening us? Naturally, we also do not wish for mutual destruction, but if you continue to coerce us single-mindedly, then we have no choice but to do the same."
"Fine! Then I will kill you first!" Golden Eagle stretched out his hand and had already grabbed Koboto Kobayashi by the neck. Koboto Kobayashi’s body, weighing around 145 kilograms, was instantly lifted with one hand by Li Yifei.
"You... even if... you kill me... I will not give in..." Koboto Kobayashi managed to squeeze these words out from between his clenched teeth, his complexion turning from white to red and finally settling into a pale blue, his body struggling but growing increasingly weak, obviously close to being strangled to death by Golden Eagle.
At this moment, Golden Eagle’s hand relaxed slightly, and he snorted coldly, "Do you really not fear death?"
Koboto Kobayashi slumped weakly on the ground, took a while to recover, and slowly got up to sit straight, saying, "I am the president of the Yamaguchi Group. For our Yamaguchi Group, I am willing to give my life."
After taking another breath, Koboto Kobayashi continued, "Lord Golden Eagle, we also do not wish to be your enemy. Regarding the matter with your wife, we can offer you the best compensation, and we will also hire the most renowned neurologists in the world to treat your wife. Please, stop the killing."
Having shown such resilience, Koboto Kobayashi now had the leverage to negotiate with Li Yifei, earning the utmost admiration from the two executives.
Li Yifei scoffed and said, "Alright, let me hear what compensation you have to offer."
"I will give you one billion US dollars. I think that amount should be enough to compensate you, right?"
"Humph, one billion US dollars, do you think I, Golden Eagle, am short on money?"
Koboto Kobayashi replied firmly, "I know that Lord Golden Eagle does not lack money, but this is our sincerity."
Li Yifei stared at Koboto Kobayashi and slowly said, "One billion... alright then, but I want it in Euros."
Koboto Kobayashi immediately retorted angrily, "Lord Golden Eagle, this is already the maximum amount we can offer as compensation. We absolutely cannot agree to that."
At this moment, the two executives were inwardly blaming Koboto Kobayashi. Although the US dollar had devalued quite a bit, the Euro wasn’t even twice as much. Two billion US dollars for peace, for the Yamaguchi Group, was definitely manageable. They should just agree quickly.
"You really won’t agree?" Li Yifei shouted coldly.
Koboto Kobayashi snorted, "Lord Golden Eagle, I fear you want more than just money. If you want money, we can reluctantly agree to one billion Euros, but I think you want something else as well."
Li Yifei’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise, then he smiled lightly, "President Koboto, I indeed underestimated you. You are quite intelligent."
"Thank you for the compliment, Lord Golden Eagle."
Only then did the two executives realize the reason Koboto Kobayashi hadn’t agreed immediately; if they had quickly agreed and Golden Eagle had demanded more, they would have been in a difficult position.
"It’s simple. I need these additional things. If you deliver them, I will no longer pursue matters against the Yamaguchi Group. We will stop being enemies, as long as the Yamaguchi Group does not stir up trouble in our Huaxia. Then you can develop well."
Koboto Kobayashi and the two executives looked at the list of items requested, their eyes widening in shock. Koboto Kobayashi angrily exclaimed, "This is impossible, these items are too sensitive. If we provide these to you, then our Yamaguchi Group certainly can’t stay in Japan anymore."
Li Yifei smiled faintly, sat down, and said, "That’s your problem. If you can’t do it, I don’t mind forcing the Yamaguchi Group out of Japan right now."
"Is that a threat? Don’t forget, in that case, we can only fight to the death."
"Ha ha, fine by me. I made a mistake once; I won’t make it again. You can try and see who will wipe out whom first. Will I annihilate the Yamaguchi Group first, or can you kill my wife first?"
Li Yifei’s gaze was like two sharp swords piercing into the eyes of the trio, causing all three to shiver, their backs unknowingly drenched in cold sweat.
