Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2118

Caught completely by surprise, Ryugu almost toppled right next to Gerald, though he managed to balance himself in time. At that moment, the dagger that had been in his hand just seconds ago could be seen flipping in the air… and soon after, it lodged itself into the dirt…

Eyes widened, Ryugu immediately began looking for what had intercepted his attack… and soon enough, he saw what it was. It was a shuriken, of all things!

Annoyed that he had missed his chance to kill Gerald because of it, Ryugu immediately roared, “Who the hell did that!”

The second Ryugu said that, a hoarse voice could be heard saying, “A bit hold of you to be fighting in the Yamashita family’s territory, don’t you think?”

Following that, a hunchbacked old man seemed to appear out of thin air, instantly startling everyone!

How had he concealed his presence so perfectly…?

Quickly snapping out of it, Fujiko then leaned closer to Gerald while whispering, “That’s most probably an elder of the Yamashita family…”

Though she didn’t know much about the Yamashitas, from how the person acted and dressed, it was pretty evident that the old man was the real deal.

Nodding in response, Gerald couldn’t help but feel slightly wary of the old man. After all, under normal circumstances, his Herculean Primordial Spirit would warn him whenever cultivators or strong men were around. However, he had only sensed the old man’s presence from the moment the shuriken was thrown…

Gerald, for one, knew that the old man must have been watching for a while before he took action. With that in mind, Gerald was rightly vigilant around the elder. To make him feel so worried… How strong was this old man really…?

Still, Gerald couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile as he muttered, “So this is a real ninja… Now that’s a first…”

Moving back to Ryugu, the second he realized that it was a Yamashita that had stepped in, he immediately calmed himself. After all, he was well aware that he was already in trouble for trespassing.

If he offended them any further, then he’d truly be in hot water…

With that, Ryugu quickly retrieved and kept his dagger before heading over to face the old man.

Momentarily ignoring Gerald, he then bowed while placing his fist against his palm before declaring, “Good day, senior. I go by Hanyu Ryugu, and I’m the leader of the Hanyu family’s assassination department! What should I call you?”

“I’ve heard about you before…” replied the old man who didn’t seem interested in introducing himself.

“… Regardless, I’m only here because I was on my way to settle some grudges with that person. I never thought he’d enter your territory! Either way, I’d like to make it clear that I’m not here to cause you any trouble! With that said, once I take care of him, I’ll leave immediately!” declared Ryugu as he glared at Gerald.

Waving his hand rather nonchalantly, the old man then replied, “Before any of that… Since you’ve entered my family’s territory, do come over to my place as guests. We’ll peacefully talk about your grudges, and by the end of it all, we can hopefully settle this dispute without any bloodshed… How does that sound?”

Naturally, Ryugu was startled to hear that. After hesitating slightly, he eventually shook his head before saying, “… I’m fine with that! Besides, I’ve been meaning to visit your family for quite some time now, so this is the perfect opportunity for me to do so!”

Though the Yamashitas were known for their ninjas, Ryugu wasn’t all that afraid of them. After all, despite how mysterious ninjas were, Ryugu was pretty sure that the Hanyu’s assassins weren’t any weaker in comparison…
