The day of the funeral arrived. The plan was to act like a Tojo man paying his respects before sneaking off to the side. Where Shinji would meet up with Kiryu. Then take him to Kazama.

Kiryu adjusted the tie of the black suit he wore for this mission and made sure his shades were on right. He saw Tojo Clan members walking around in the outside. Meeting with friends and talking about mundane topics. Kiryu put his hands in his pockets before walking ahead. Keeping his head low as he avoided Tojo men walking about.

A part of Kiryu hoped to find Nishikiyama here. He wanted answers from his brother. Why did Y/N join the Yakuza? Did he really betray the Tojo Clan and Kazama? So many questions with nothing to go off on. Kiryu saw that only funeral staff can go to where he is supposed to go.

"Excuse me sir? Please register," a voice broke Kiryu out of his thoughts. Kiryu turned and walked towards a tent he began writing with the pen he was given by the person. "What family are you from?" He asked and Kiryu answered 'former Dojima Family'. After being given some sympathies, Kiryu briefly stepped inside the clan building.

Before overhearing that one of the funeral staff had lost his ribbon outside. Kiryu slinked back outside and began searching for that ribbon. He found it on the ground and attached it to his suit. Before heading off to the side, where he was supposed to go. He was allowed to head to the side.

Though Kiryu was stopped by a large man. "Stop. We need to have a few words," he grumbled. He remembered Shinji's words about Terada backing Nishikiyama. Kiryu looked at the man's pin. He recognized that it wasn't Tojo Clan. Which can only mean one thing, the Omi Alliance.

Kiryu followed the man to the doors. "So ya thought ya could waltz right in through the front door... Kiryu-han of Dojima," the large man said, trying to sound threatening. He held up a picture of Kiryu in Kamurocho. "What does the Omi Alliance want with me? And where did you get that picture?" asked Kiryu. The large man turned around. "The picture came from Fenghuang. As for what I want, I got a request from your former brother. The patriarch of the Nishikiyama Family wants the man in this picture captured," he explained before cracking his knuckles.

Kiryu couldn't believe it. Nishiki, wanted him captured? He felt a fist get driven into his chin. Causing his sunglasses to be knocked off his face. The large man driven his fist into Kiryu's stomach. He fell onto his knees as his body reeled from the harsh blow. "Ha! Really? The Dragon of Dojima hardly lives up to what Fenghuang said," The large man boasted. Kiryu stood up with a piercing glare, and wiped the blood off his jaw with the back of his hand. Before entering his fighting stance.

Omi Alliance Man

The large man threw an uppercut. Kiryu blocked it with his elbow, causing the man's finger to be broken. Before Kiryu landed a harsh uppercut. The man stumbled back and got into a boxing stance. He let out a couple of jabs that Kiryu weaved around, leaving purple afterimages. Then Kiryu stepped behind the man quickly. Landing a flurry of punches to his back. Then a high kick to the back of his head.

While he was down, Kiryu kicked him in the ribs. Then waited for his opponent to get back up. Kiryu grabbed him by the collar and landed three punches to the face. Before reeling his body back and slamming his forehead against the large man's head. He almost fell on his back but started to catch his breath.

Kiryu used his hands to grab either side of his face for a brutal head butt. Then the Omi Man fell onto his knees. Kiryu placed his foot against the man's face before pushing him down onto the ground. Blood splattered against the cement as his head cracked against it. Kiryu took his foot off the man's face and walked past him.

Kiryu went through the door that lead into the HQ's large Japanese garden. Waiting for him on the inside was Shinji. "Shinji. I just got attacked as I got through here," Kiryu reported and Shinji's eyes raised up in surprise. "It was a guy from the Omi Alliance. And he said it was an order from Nishiki," Kiryu continued recounting.
