The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2181

“Do you want to learn this?” Seeing Gerald’s expression, the old man asked with a smile.

“I’m a cultivator. How am I supposed to learn ninjutsu?” Gerald’s smile faded, and he asked in confusion.

“Of course you can. Cultivation and ninjutsu are of the same origin. They both draw on the natural power between heaven and earth. There are just some slight differences. You are a cultivator yourself, and you have the power of the Herculean Primordial Spirit. Learning ninjutsu on such a basis is very easy, so I guess you can get started in a few days,” said the old man as he looked at Gerald.

“That’s good news.” Gerald didn’t refuse. If he could learn this ability and enhance his power, his chances of saving his parents and then his sister, who was in the Sun League, would increase greatly.

“Do you want to learn now?” The old man couldn’t wait to start.

“It’s better to settle the matter at hand first. I’m a little uneasy as the Kanagawa family and the Hanyu family issues are not settled yet.” Gerald shook his head. He wanted to learn, but it was not the time yet.

Or rather, he should say that he had no time to learn at all.

He couldn’t just let go of the Futaba family’s affairs and focus on studying here. That would go against his original intention of coming to Japan.

“Okay, then. I shall wait until you have settled this mess.” The old man did not insist and asked Fujiko, “Do you want to stay here for the night or go back home?”

“I think we’d better go back. The Kanagawa family hired an assassin in the international assassin list to kill me last night. Judging from his skills, he should be in the top twenty. I need to settle this matter. Besides, the Kanagawa family cannot continue to exist.”

Gerald took a deep breath. Thinking of what had happened yesterday, his face turned dark all of a sudden.

“Go ahead, then. If it’s like what you’ve said, they should be removed.” The old man nodded.

“Well then, we shall go back first. We will come to visit again when we have the time.” Gerald stood up and gave him a fist and palm salute.

“That’s not necessary. You can leave your phone number and just call me directly if there is anything.”

The old man fished out a pen and paper from under the table, wrote a phone number on it, and handed it to Gerald.

“I had forgotten about this.” Gerald smiled in embarrassment as he took the paper.

From the time he had arrived at the foot of the barren mountain, he had felt that this was a very traditional family. They seemed to do things like how they were done a hundred years ago. After being here for a long time, he had forgotten all about these modern tools. If the old man hadn’t mentioned it, Gerald wouldn’t have remembered that there was such a thing as a telephone.

After exchanging phone numbers, Gerald left with Fujiko.

On the way back, Gerald kept thinking about what the old man had said. Indeed, What was said today was too much for Gerald to digest for the time being. He didn’t expect this old man from the Yamashita family to have such a relationship with Daryl.

Of course, Gerald felt a bit relaxed now. No matter if it was the matter of Yearning Island or the Kanagawa and Hanyu families, with help from the Yamashita family in the investigation, it was clearly better than fighting alone.

However, Gerald didn’t have high hopes for them to find out the location of Yearning Island.

“Are you a cultivator?” Fujiko turned her head.

“Yes.” Gerald did not hide it and answered in a low voice. “About my identity, you must not tell anyone about it, including the power of the Herculean Primordial Spirit in me. If outsiders know about it, I will get into endless trouble.”

“I understand. I will not tell anyone about it.” Fujiko nodded and replied very seriously.

“Hmm…” Gerald knew what Fujiko had in mind. “With the Yamashita family’s help this time, I think the matters of your family should be resolved soon.”

Soon, the two arrived at the Futaba Mansion.

Before they arrived, the experts arranged by the old man had already arrived.

“Gerald, who are these people? I asked them just now, but they wouldn’t tell me. They simply told me that they came here on orders. Are they the helpers you found?” At that moment, Takuya was standing at the entrance of the manor. When he saw Gerald, he quickly walked to him and asked, pointing to the people on both sides of the manor.

“I think it’s better to go inside before we talk about this.”

“Thank you for your help. Please tell me if you need anything!”

Gerald wasn’t prepared to explain this in front of these people. Instead, he waved at them and brought Takuya and Fujiko into the house.

In the parlor, once they got inside, Takuya repeated his question.

Now, the situation of this family was very complicated. They did not just have to face the Kanagawa and Hanyu families, but even the people inside the family were coveting his position. One mistake could push him to the end of the world.

“Don’t worry, Patriarch Takuya. The people outside are members of the Yamashita family. They were ordered by the old man to come and protect us.” Gerald sensed Takuya’s anxiety, so he explained quickly as soon as they were seated.

“Why would the Yamashita family help us?” Takuya opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.

“About this, you should just rest assured. That old man was an old friend of my grandfather, so, he was willing to help us,” said Gerald with a smile.

“I see…” Hearing Gerald’s words, Takuya felt relieved.

“By the way, Gerald, we will have another family meeting the day after tomorrow. They insist that you must be present.” Takuya was relieved, but then, he turned to Gerald and continued.

“Was it the white haired old man’s idea?” Gerald narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.

The last time when he had first come to the Futaba family, Gerald had attended the so called family meeting once. During the meeting, the people who rarely came had actually wanted to force Takuya to abdicate his position. Gerald remembered this very clearly.

“I can’t say that it’s him. Now that our family is no longer as prosperous as before, it’s logical that they would want to appoint a new patriarch. However, I can’t let them drain the family of its last sustenance. You are our honored guest and now Fujiko’s boyfriend, though superficially, so no matter what, you have to attend the meeting.”

Takuya couldn’t help but sigh when it came to his family matter.

“No problem, I can attend.” Gerald nodded in agreement He would never make it difficult for Takuya.

“Then, I am very grateful for this. For what has happened to the family recently, if it was not for your help, I’m afraid we wouldn’t be sitting here safely at all.” Seeing Gerald agree to it, Takuya immediately showed a relaxed smile, and the look he gave Gerald became more and more benevolent.

“This is what I should do.” Gerald waved his hand. He had never gotten used to accepting people’s thanks, and it would make him feel very awkward.

“Still, there’s one thing I cannot understand.” After laughing, Takuya was clearly relaxed.

“What is it?” asked Gerald, “If I know about it, I will surely tell you.”

Gerald Crawford: The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2183

“It’s still the same question. You’ve helped us so much and even put yourself in danger. Besides, you even offended the Kanagawa and Hanyu families. Although you are very strong, you don’t have to get yourself into so much trouble at all. I just want to know why you’re doing this. What is your purpose? Or is it for Fujiko’s sake?”

Takuya rubbed his hands and asked in embarrassment.

This question had been lingering in his mind. He had thought about it countless times, but still, he could not find an answer. So, he could no longer hold it in and asked outright.

Fujiko looked at Gerald.

“There is indeed a purpose.” Gerald looked at them and hesitated for a while, but then, he still told them the truth.

“That’s not a problem. As long as you say it, we will definitely meet your request.” Hearing what Gerald had said, only then did Takuya feel that this was a bit more normal. For someone so strong, he didn’t have to offend other people for the sake of a small family like his at all.

“We will talk about this after settling the matter at hand.” After contemplating, Gerald did not say anything else about Yearning Island.

“Okay. Since you don’t want to talk about it now, I won’t ask you anymore. But again, for the reason that you’ve helped us so much during this time, I will try my best to fulfill your wish. Even if you want the position of the patriarch of this family, I will give it to you.” Takuya banged on the table and said in a deep voice.

“This is really not necessary.” Gerald waved his hand and laughed. He had never wanted to become a patriarch or anything. Not only would he not get any benefits, but he would also bring himself a lot of trouble.

“You have just come back from the Yamashita family, it is better to go and rest first. I will tell the members of the family to come here tonight, and we will discuss everything clearly. If they want to take advantage of the fall of the family to get something, I will put them off the idea!” With Gerald here, Takuya spoke with great confidence.

“Yes.” Gerald nodded.
