Chereads / Akiba's Black Dragon / Chapter 39 - The Calm Before The Storm

Chapter 39 - The Calm Before The Storm

1 Week Later, At A Random Forest

Everyone was training intensely.

Tela was outside training with Jimmy, Jimmy was slashing at Tela's body.

Tela was just taking the slashes, building his pain tolerance.

Kiyomi was sitting near a tree cultivating, using the last of her resources.

JacQuarius was cultivating as well while keeping watch.

After the Hotel Incident they retreated to a small forest, they were now labeled as Terrorists!

TPD quickly cut ties with them, as the PSIA openly labeled them as Terrorists.

Now they had even more enemies, TPD switched sides, and the other police departments were starting to get involved.

JacQuarius knew he was going to have to prove a point, but now was not the time!

They had to break through to Gold Rank, then they would have a chance of taking down the Yakuza.

They had a while until then.

At The Former Location Of The Nakimura Family

"We have to find out where they went and kill him now. He killed our families, and we have to get revenge!"

A few of the Yakuza's lackeys were conversing among themselves, while a man just inspected the heavy Rubble.

"So Monkey, you're still targeting my family. Uncle, Aunt, Cousins, I shall get revenge for you!"

The man inspecting the rubble was Daniel!

He is now, the future of the Yakuza. The organization was making full use of him, ordering him to participate in the competition for Tokyo's Overlord!

There were only three participants: JacQuarius, Yakuza's Supreme Elder, and Daniel.

But Yakuza's Supreme elder was forced to back out, just leaving Daniel and JacQuarius.

Daniel had already broken through to Gold Rank, he felt no fear of JacQuarius.

After countless hours of isolation and immense despair, he realized why he lost.

He solely relied on the sword, without the sword he was just an ordinary cultivator since he didn't have any battle strategies or anything, all his tactics were based around that sword.

Now that it was destroyed, he began formulating his own tactics, he planned to never use artifacts again!

Why? Because he believed that relying on that sword, caused the death of his family now.

If he had focused more on his cultivation previously, he could have killed JacQuarius then, and stopped this from happening!

He had a lot of regret in his heart, and there was only one to vanquish it.

Killing JacQuarius!

"Let's head back, we're not going after him. He'll come to us eventually, let the rat bite the cheese."

Daniel then led the group of lackeys and left.

At The Former Black Dragon Hotel

Ian was searching around the rubble, looking for clues of any sort.

He had to get revenge and finish his mission ASAP, his parents' lives were on the line.

"Where the fuck could they have gone?"

Ian was visibly frustrated. He couldn't find any clues, and worried for his parents.

His father had already lost a hand, he didn't want a repeat of that situation, and he refused to think about worse situations that could happen!

He then began to ask random civilians for any information, in hope of possible leads.

30 Minutes Later, Back to JacQuarius and the group

He remained cultivating, he was actually in a mental slump.

He didn't understand much about how Cultivation Techniques worked, but after he tiered up his Dragon Qi, it evolved even more, and his senses enhanced. Tenfold Draconic Style had a total of 5 tiers, so what would happen if he reached tier 5? He was scared he might turn into a full dragon!

He made another breakthrough, now being 1 step away from Gold Rank.

He smelled something!

It was a familiar smell, he began activating his investigation skill.

His investigation skill, allowed him to see everything that he could smell within a certain distance around him.

He saw Ian investigating around the area!

He then transmitted a message to Kiyomi and Tela, and began heading Ian's direction.

"Long time no see bitch nigga. Came here for another ass whooping? Whats the score, like 4-0?"

"Haha very funny nigga, I just came here to kill you. Since you know I'm here, you might as ambush me already, what are they waiting for?"

JacQuarius didn't expect his response.

After All, Ian came here completely alone. He knew either Ian had someone strong laying in ambush or he had a crazy trump card up his sleeve.

JacQuarius decided to take no chances, activating his artifacts immediately.

"Let's get it on then nigga!"

JacQuarius flew immediately at Ian!

Ian dodged it, then flew down and touched the grass.

"Adios!"

Ian vanished on the spot!

"Kiyomi, Tela Lets Go!"

They appeared from their ambush spots and began leaving.

Jimmy came out and flew them away to a new location to hide in.

Yakuza Headquarters

"Daniel I found them, I planted a baby ghost at their location. We can get an idea of what they're planning. They ambushed me so I had to leave."

Daniel sat there listening, not giving off any facial expressions but one of tranquility.

"Ahhh alright. Let's go investigate then I'll execute our next course of action."

Daniel, Ian, and Selena all left, not aware that JacQuarius had already retreated.

15 Minutes Later

They arrived at the scene.

Ian went down to the spot, collecting the baby ghost and merging it with his soul.

He received all the memories that the baby ghost observed.

He then pointed southeast.

"They retreated in that direction immediately after I left, I doubt we can't catch up with them but we at least have a lead. How will we find them?"

Daniel sat there and pondered for a minute.

He knew he couldn't catch them, so he would have to figure out how to slow them down or lure them to him!

"I have a plan, follow me. Let's go set the preparations."

He pulled out his phone and began to leave with them.

RING!

JacQuarius got an IB notification!

He received a DM (Direct Message) from The Nahihara family.

"We've Located an inheritance of Primordial Reaper. We'll offer you the inheritance in return for peace!"
