"The year's first meeting of all members of the Tokyo Manji gang will now begin!" Draken yelled. It has been a few days, and today there is the first meeting after the new year. Everyone was there, and Mikey, Draken, and I stood in front of everyone. "Toman has been in conflict with Black Dragon for a long time, but we had agreed to a truce. However, it was broken duo to strife between brothers. Secind Vice President Hakkai Shiba and Black Dragon leader Taiju Shiba. Then, due to independent action taken by the two leaders of the first division, second division Captain Mitsuya, and finally, Mikey and I fought and defeated Taiju Shiba and all of Black Dragon. Some members would like to address everyone about this incident. First Hakkai Shiba. Come forewards!" Draken yelled, and Hakkai stepped forward.

"This all began with a selfish lie. To maintain that lie, I dragged my family, Toman, into this. Things got out of hand and turned into war between Toman and Black Dragon. I'm to blame for it. Everyone...I apologize." Hakkai said and bowed. The other members started to whisper, and Muto stepped forward. "Don't worry, Hakkai. Whatever sparks a conflict, it doesn't matter once it's all over." "Besides, we defeated Black Dragon. Things turned out fine. Isn't that right, guys?" Smiley also told him, and all the members from Toman agreed. "Hakkai." Mistuya stepped forward. "You will continue to be vice captain of Toman's secinds division. You are coll with that, right?" He asked the gang, and they all again cheered.

"Next Seishu Inui and Hajime Kokonoi, come forward." Draken said, and the two boys from Black Dragon came into view. "I am Seishu Inui of the 11th generation Black Dragon." Inui introduced himself. "And I'm Hajime Kokonoi from the same gang." Kokonoi introduced himself. "The 10th generation of Black Dragon lost to Toman. The leader, Taiju Shiba, retired. We've taken over the 11th generation of Black Dragon. And after negotiation with Mikey, we've decided to join under Toman." Kokonoi and Inui spoke. "Black Dragon will be assigned to the first division under Takemichi Hanagaki. Got it, Takemitchy?" Mikey spoke. "Was that your decision?" Takemichi asked obvious, unsure. "I'm respecting their request. If they joined, they'd wanted to be under you." Mikey told him, and they both approached Takemichi. There was a loud mumble in the crowds, but Draken again got them to listen.

"Silence!" "Lastly, I've got something to say about the Christmas conflict. Tetta Kisaki." Mikey spoke, and Kisaki in the front row looked at us. "Yes?" He asked. "I'm kicking you out. As of today, you're expelled." Mikey said. "That's insane, Mikey. You must be joking." Kisaki said, stunned. "You think I would joke here? You're out." "Hey, hold on here, Mikey." If you kick Kisaki out, then natually I'm leaving Toman too. In other words, of the 450 members of the Tokyo Manji Gang, the 50 former members of Moebius and all 300 former members from Valhalla will drop out. That means Toman will shrink to 100 members. Is that what you want?" Hanma said, and Mikey looked down at me for a moment. I grabbed his hand and squeezed it. "I don't care." Mikey then answered. "Toman had gotten too big anyway." "Gotten too big? That's insane, Mikey. Isn't that TOman's objective?" "Then was your objective in instigating the Christmas conflict to grow Toman? You incited Takemitchy and then gave Yuzuha a knife to kill Taiju. Isn't that right?" All members were confused and started talking. "I've turned a blind eye to your underhanded methods for growing Toman. But no longer." Mikey said, and I continued. "Kisaki, you betrayed the first division for your own benefits. The consequence is the ejection from the gang. You should know." I told him, and Mikey turned around to go, grabbed my hand, and pulled me along. "You've got it all wrong! You had grown weak! Taiju was a threat to Toman. I did that for your sake!" Kisaki yelled, and when I turned around to see, he started walking up the stairs but got stopped by Draken. "Hey, who said you could come forward?" Draken spoke, and a second later, Hanma punched Draken again with his arm as he was aiming for his head. "You listen to what Kisaki's going to say." Hanma said. "You bastard." Draken insulted him.

Kisaki walked up to us, and Mikey too me on his left side in his arm, wrapping it protectively around me. "Don't listen to what those losers say, Mikey. Aren't you going to build an era for hoodlums? Toman's going to frow huge. We'll be a gang everyone bows to. When we get bigger, it's sure to breed darkness. I'll take all on that darkness. You get it right, Mikey?" He said, and I stopped his as I quietly spoke. "That's never what we wanted to be." I said, and Kisaki looked at me surprised. "That never was our goal. We wanted a gang to protect each other not to grow big, and everyone bows out of fear." I said, and Mikey looked at me with a soft smile, then back at Kisaki with a cold expression. "We're through Kisaki. Your rash assumption will screw up our dream." He said. Kisaki fell onto his knees and yelled Mike's name as the both of us left.
