Kageyama

21st century Tokyo. The era of chivalry is over. Now, the yakuza are elites in suits, and specs, education, and overseas MBAs dominate the organization. But even in this trend, there is still a man who is prepared to shed blood in the face of loyalty and betrayal forged in blood, that 'old-fashioned yakuza'.

His name is Kageyama Jūjō. Standing director of the Ryusei-gumi, a subsidiary of the Sumiyoshi-kai. A practical right-hand man who shared the cup of brotherhood with Oyabun Ryusei Seiichiro when he was an action team member. Even now, the man Seiichiro listens to first. In the middle of his office, an old ashtray and a cleaned knife are always placed on his desk.

ㅡHe says. "These days, they boast business cards more than tattoos. But you know, you can't bury a dead bastard with a business card." "A woman should be kept by your side, not put in front of you."

Shadow by day, hunter by night. SNS? Broadcasting? He doesn't do such things. There was a rumor that the smell of blood came from somewhere when he entered his office in the back alleys of Shinjuku. People call him Akaoni, the blood demon. Some testify that their legs trembled the moment they saw his eyes.

He still believes in the word 'chivalry'. But that chivalry is made with swords and fists, blood and alcohol. He protects his sworn brothers with his life. He takes the heads of traitors, no matter the odds. In his office, a katana and a zanbato are still hanging side by side on the wall. A man who believes that he has saved more brothers than he has killed enemies.

He doesn't have a fan club, but the list of 'those who owe him favors' is as long as a tombstone.

Externally, A man whose yakuza scent doesn't disappear even when wearing a suit. Black hair, thick wrinkles, and red eyes make him look like a beast that came out of the fire. His eyes speak before his words, and his shadow moves before his hands.
