Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2180
Following that, the three avoided talking about Daryl for a while, choosing to drink their tea insteadâ¦
Sometime later, the old man turned to look at Fujiko before asking, â⦠The Futabas have had a long standing feud with the Hanyus, correct?â
Momentarily caught off guard, Fujiko quickly snapped out of it before replying, â⦠Indeed⦠Though, I didnât expect you to know about thisâ¦â
âIâll have you know that we Yamashitas are quite knowledgeable about what happens beyond our territory⦠Regardless, while we did know about your feud, we never expected your families to actually start attacking each other,â explained the old man who was now feeling much better after not talking about Daryl for a while.
âTo be honest, the feud only began again quite recently. While I still donât know what the Hanyu familyâs motive is, they suddenly sent assassins after my head some time ago⦠Had Gerald not stepped in to help me back then, I couldâve died back thereâ¦â muttered Fujiko as she wondered what was going on in the Hanyu family membersâ minds.
After all, in the past, the most they did was ignore each otherâs presence when their families crossed paths.
âI see⦠Further investigation is definitely needed⦠Putting that aside for now, since your familyâs currently in trouble, Iâm Willing to lend a hand,â replied the old man.
âYou⦠wish to help the Futabas?â asked Fujiko as she turned to look at Gerald.
âMore specifically, Iâm doing this for Geraldâs sake. Since heâs currently living with your family, itâs only natural that I make sure he stays safe. While Iâm at it, I may as well protect the Futabas, â explained the old man.
âEven so, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!â replied Fujiko who wasnât about to say no to this since her family was still in danger. With the Yamashita familyâs help, they now had a chance to stand against the Kanagawas and the Hanyusâ¦!
Nodding in response, the old man then faced his window before shouting, âAlright, gather some of our men and tell them to head to the Futaba manor! Once youâ re there, tell Takuya that youâre friends of Geraldâs and have him arrange some rooms for you to stay in! After all that, make sure to keep your eyes peeled at all times! If anyone tries to look for trouble with the Futabas, get rid of them immediately!â
Almost immediately after, dozens of footsteps could suddenly be heard running off into the distance.
Raising a slight brow, Gerald curiously asked, âSay⦠Are there really ninjas in this familyâ¦?â
âIndeed.â
âCould you show one to meâ¦?â asked Gerald, who had always wanted to see a real ninja.
Upon hearing that, the old man exposed his palm and all of a sudden, a flame appeared out of thin air!
From what Gerald could tell, the old man wasnât hiding anything that couldâve produced the flame. It was almost magicalâ¦
As for Fujiko, she was so shocked that her mouth was already gaping by this point. Scenes like these only happened in movies⦠How was any of this real�
âThe power to control elements is a ninjaâs true power,â explained the old man as the flame slowly died out. Even so, the warmth of the fire remained.
âNinjas really do existâ¦!â muttered Gerald, feeling slightly excited now.
