The Quarter-Final of this tournament was over, then Semi-Final would start soon. There were a lot of people who discussed this matter since there were only four people left in this tournament.
"Just three matches left in this tournament, now."
"I wonder who is going to win!"
"Dear me, you gentleman are simply to green."
"Shouldn"t our Kengan a.s.sociation members be focussing not on "who"s going to win," but "who is going to become the chairman?"
"Exactly! Mr. Atami is absolutely right!"
The one who had said those words was the CEO of Muji TV, Atashi Hisashi, and CEO of United Clothing, Yanagi Makoto.
Everyone started to gather around those two people to listen to what they meant by those words.
"Let me tell you all about the representation of the remaining corporations."
"Katahara Metsudo, who is the CEO of Dainippon Bank. If he becomes the winner of this tournament then there won"t be any change in the current Kengan a.s.sociation."
"Furumi Heihachi, who is the CEO of Furumi Pharmaceuticals. This person has been very dissatisfied with the current a.s.sociation and wants to change it. However, this person has decided to support Nogi to become the chairman of this a.s.sociation."
"Takakaze Kirimi, who is the CEO of Motorhead Motors. If he becomes chairman, there"s no telling how he"ll govern the a.s.sociation."
Atami explained all of those before took a deep breath.
"What about the last one?"
"The last one might be the most famous one since his face often has to appear on the television."
"Ichijou Yuuki, who is the CEO of Ichijou Group and he is also the son of the largest Yakuza Group in this country. He is the youngest fighter in this tournament and also the youngest member of the a.s.sociation. However, don"t belittle him since he has a lot of allies in this battle and his faction is also very strong. If he becomes the chairman, then I"m not even sure what he is going to do..."
"That is all. You can essentially consider this a four-way contest between the factions of Katahara, Nogi, Takakaze, and Ichijou..."
"......."
"Why are you telling us all of this?"
Atami and Yanagi looked at each other and nodded.
"It"s simple. The more people you have to carry to your throne, the better. We"re here to solicit carriers."

"We"re going to take a one-hour break now, to give the fighters a bit of rest."
"Please wait for the semifinals to begin."
Yuuki decided to rest, but his room was quite full at this moment. "Why are all of you here?" He could see Togo, Gen, Rino, Togawa, his father, and along with the fighters that he had met on the infirmary.
"Don"t be so cold, we"re here to support you," Rino said with a smile.
Togo snorted, looking at Rino. "You"re the only one leave from our group."
"Since when have we formed a group?"
Yuuki was speechless at this moment.
"Now, I want to ask you, what you"re going to do if you win this tournament?" Gen asked. "You"re young, you sure want to become the chairman?"
"Fishface!"
Everyone at this moment looked at Gen and thought that this old guy was very savvy to ask this question.
"Shut up, Fishface!" Togo said.
"Fishface...." Gen sulked a bit at this moment.
"You"re going to give it to your father?" Rino asked while looking at Issei who was sitting on the sofa while sipping a warm tea.
Yuuki shook his head and said, "No, I"m not going to give it to him. He"s too old, he might live in a few years."
"Oi! I"m still healthy and will live until I see my grandchildren!" Issei said while snorting.
Yuuki wanted to say that Issei could see his grandchildren soon after he had made one.
"Umm... You can see your grandchildren soon," Shouko said.
"........"
Suddenly the room became quiet at this moment and they looked at Yuuki with a shocked expression. The youngest one in this place was Yuuki, no, Haibara, but they didn"t think much about Haibara, however, Yuuki was different since they didn"t expect him to have children so soon.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Yuuki coughed really hard at this moment. "You"re asking what I"m going to do if I win this tournament, right?"
"......."
They were speechless at how Yuuki was able to change the topic of the conversation swiftly, however, Issei was in shock and wasn"t sure what to do for a while.
Issei had said that he would still be alive until he saw his grandchildren, but he didn"t expect to see his grandchildren so soon.
"So what are you going to do?" Togo asked, trying to help him.
"Well, I"m not sure, since two matches in front of me are very difficult," Yuuki said.
"......."
They were in silence once again when they thought about Yuuki"s opponent in the next two matches.
Takeshi Wakatsuki and Kuroki Gensai.
"Do you really need to use a pro-wrestler in this fight?" Togawa asked.
"Yes! He is pro-wrestler and he should use the technique of pro-wrestler!" Sekibayashi said.
"Do you really need pride to win a tournament?" Togo said with a frown.
"Anyway, let"s talk about this matter after I have defeated Wakatsuki." Yuuki looked at them and asked, "Do any of you want to become chairman?"
"......"
Gen, Togo, Togawa, and Rino looked at each other. From that statement, they could tell that Yuuki didn"t have an intention to become a chairman of the a.s.sociation. Then, they had a chance to become a chairman, however, the answer was who would become the chairman between the four of them.
"I"m not going to become one," Togawa said with a smile and moved back a bit since the intensity between them was too fierce.
"........"
Yuuki didn"t talk to them since he could feel his father"s fierce gaze at himself.
"Who?"
"Who is pregnant?"
Gogogogogogogo!!!!
Issei wouldn"t let him go after he had answered his question.
"....."
Yuuki sighed at this moment.
