Chapter 553: 166: The End of Guard
Chapter 553 166. The Guard End
Two hours have passed since Saburo Arasaka's death. In the suite of the Kanbi Building, Arasaka Setsuno, who had scolded the despicable military technology, sat on the sofa and said goodbye to Carl and others.
Saying goodbye is natural.
Carl and his team's escort mission have ended. After Saburo Arasaka's death, Seru Arasaka's biggest threat has disappeared. What he has to do in the next time is to integrate Arasaka's power and control Arasaka as his heir to Arasaka. , and in this process, he will stay in the Araka Tower. In the entire Night City, for Araka Seru, the upcoming manager of Araka, there is no safer place than Araka Tower.
He is the "Crown Prince" of Arasaka, and he is also the one who is about to become another "emperor" of Arasaka. After the assassination of Arasaka Saburo, his safety represents Arasaka's face. In this moment, even within, even if it is internal. Those who are dissatisfied with Arasaka Seru and those who resist will stop, so his safety will become a top priority during this period, and this emphasis also comes from the opinions of the main island of Japan.
The Arasaka Company's personnel who were once loyal to Arasaka Saburo had no objection to Arasaka Saburo's position and everything else. Even the Miss Kazuko Arasaka agreed with this, but since Arasaka Senori wants to inherit Arasaka Company , the bodyguards around him can no longer be a group of mercenaries looking for from the streets of Night City.
That's right, the mercenaries found on the streets of Night City.
This is the attitude of the local Japanese personnel towards Carl and others.
They can accept the sudden death of Saburo Arasaka, or accept the inheritance of Arasaka Seno-no. They will not conduct detailed investigations during the turbulent period to find out whether it is a military technology person who takes action, but they hope that Arasaka Seno-no. Around me, you can choose someone who is better controlled to protect him.
As the patriarch of the Arasaka family, if you don’t want to choose the Ninja Hundreds as your guard, you should at least choose some people who came out of the Hokkaido training camp.
All the prosthetic bodies of these people are under the control of the Araka family, and their safety and loyalty are more guaranteed.
If the standards are really lowered, we should also choose mercenaries who have been transformed by Adam Heavy Hammer and controlled by Arasaka. However, Arasaka Seruki was surrounded by a group of street mercenaries protecting him.
The essay bodies of these mercenaries were neither controlled by Arasaka, nor had any loyalty or blood relationship with the Arasaka family. If they were to be protected, wouldn’t this expose their incompetence?
Before Arasaka Seruki became the patriarch of the Arasaka family, he was just a rebel in the Arasaka company. No one cared about his safety, and many people even regarded him as a traitor and wanted to kill him, but after Arasaka Saburo died, he was the one who died. , this attitude must be changed. As the only male heir of Arasaka, his current role has surpassed the rebellious behavior of the past and has been amplified to the extreme.
The reason why Saburo Arasaka was re-accepted Arasaka Seruki back to Arasaka under the mediation of Kazuko Arasaka was because no matter what kind of dynasty, heirs were needed.
After Kei Arasaka's death, Seru Arasaka became the only male heir and the only key figure who could continue to unite the Japanese Arasaka family that upholds the idea of "male inheritance" after Saburo Arasaka's death and confront other companies.
This principle is exactly the same as that of Arasaka, North America.
After Kei Arasaka's death, why did the personnel from Arasaka gather at Michiko Arasaka and elect her, who was still underage and unknown about family affairs, as the core of Arasaka North America? The reason is simple - she is the only one who can continue to unite Arasaka, North America.
Now, this is exactly the case with Arasaka Setsuki.
The past hatred and hostility turned into temporary patience after Saburo Arasaka's death. Faced with the only Arasaka who could be recognized by Arasaka, even if he was unwilling, no matter how he suspected that he had something to do with Saburo Arasaka's death. Xuan's inheritance cannot be denied at all, otherwise it is denying their inheritance.
In the Araka family, there have never been a shortage of senior officials who are lying on the credit book and preparing to pass on their inheritance from generation to generation, so that their descendants can live a superior life.
How could they really be willing to give up the idea of "there are endless descendants" just because they once catered to Saburo Arasaka?
Opposing Arasaka Seri Rakami is just a necessity. When Saburo was still alive, he showed his attitude. Saburo is now dead. If they still oppose Arasaka Seri Rakami's inheritance, wouldn't it be impossible for them to get along with themselves? Their sons still have to inherit their position.
Many people have set their sights on the position around Arasaka Seri and are preparing to make their descendants become Arasaka Seri's guards to show their allegiance. This is also the attitude of surrender that all the little daimyos showed to the great daimyos in the Warring States Period. It is just to send 'protons', and when such a pledge of allegiance is afraid of not being able to catch up with the heat, Carl and the others are very annoying.
"For me, your guards are the most reassuring for me."
As Arasaka Sera said, he shook his head himself: "But according to the plan, I can no longer arouse too much suspicion. I suspect that Arasaka Saburo has a backup plan. Before dealing with these deputy players, I am ready to take over and control Arasaka. Let it reach the point where even Saburo Arasaka is resurrected, he can't control it anymore."
"I don't care about this, but Goro Takemura."
Carl didn't care about the end of the guard. After all, he might have a chance to come out to have a drink together, but he cared very much about Goro Takemura who was temporarily sent away to start the investigation:
"How are you going to deal with him? Arasaka Saburo's personal bodyguard, are you going to find an opportunity to deal with it? Stop the sage body and send a ninja assassination, there should be no accident."
"No, I'm going to keep him by my side."
Arasaka Seru has decided on the fate of Takemura Goro: "I will keep him by my side and serve as a member of my guard."
"Is this a bit too risky?"
Oliver was a little surprised at Arasaka Seruki's decision: "If he finds out the truth about Arasaka Saburo's death, then you."
"My people have already controlled his family."
Arasaka Seru said in a very calm and indifferent tone: "His family is in my hands. Even if one day I find the truth, I will let him decide that it is more important to the loyalty of the dead Arasaka Saburo. It is more important to be the family that lives in the world."
".So, you are indeed Japanese, and the smell of 'You don't want something wrong with your family,' has come out."
Fighting is not a joke, let alone Goro Takemura is not an innocent person who is out of the matter. Carl has no objection to Arasaka Seruki's approach. He originally wanted to care about his friend Maki, but now he doesn't need to worry too much, but now Before ending his escort to Arasaka Setsuru, Carl has one last question.
"Speaking of this, how do you use this thing?"
Carl pointed to the box that Jack carried in his hand, which contained something that Arasaka Setsu had given to Carl and the others.
“Relic, is there any tutorials for use?”
