In the early hours of that day, three branch heads of the Noguchi Group, accompanied by over a dozen key members and a hundred peripheral members armed with weapons, headed straight for Kanagawa Prefecture.
The Yamakawa Family, of course, would not choose to battle within the city, so they set up an interception on the highway.
The two factions erupted in a fierce gunfight on the stretch of highway where Tokyo met Kanagawa Prefecture. As the Noguchi Group was leaderless, with divided loyalties and each harboring their own plans, they were ultimately routed by the well-prepared Yamakawa Family and fled in disarray.
The next morning, Yamakawa Ichiro took his people to the two entertainment venues in Kabukicho they had previously purchased and affixed the family crest of the Yamakawa Family to the signs.
