"Takeuchi Saburou, the third son of the Takeuchi family, his father, Takeuchi Shigetora, is the chief strategist and a prominent civil official of the Hashiba family, akin to the head honcho of the Hashiba inner circle. He oversees military strategies, domestic policies, and personnel matters for the Hashiba Group, acting as a senior official who also advises on key issues."
"I've met Saburou as well. In Kansai, he's not just doing the perfume business; he's also involved in media, making movies, running talent agencies, pimping, operating casinos, laundering money for the underworld, and sending out secret payments. Essentially, he's a middleman for Hashiba, a white-handled tool. He is sworn brothers with the Young Master of the Mountain Rhombus Association and wields significant influence within the organization; he's essentially one of the official channels through which the Hashiba Group controls civilian forces."
