Ryu Ga Gotoku Online/Wanderings of the Golden Dragon: Chapter 2

The Visitor (, Raihōsha) is the second chapter of the Wanderings of the Golden Dragon storyline in Ryu Ga Gotoku Online.
== Plot ==
Joon-gi Han tells Ryuji Goda that the Jingweon Mafia have learned of his recent expulsion from the Omi Alliance and they want to make him an offer: Since Ryuji is the long-lost son of the leader of their former Japanese Branch, they want to invite him to join the Jingweon and then help broker a partnership between the Omi and the Jingweon to destroy their mutual rival, the Tojo Clan. To that end, Han has been tasked with escorting Ryuji to Korea, so he can meet with the Jingweon leaders. However, Ryuji isn't interested, because after trying out Sapporo's famous miso katsu dish, he wants to try famous regional dishes from every major city in Japan. Since he has orders to not return to Korea without Ryuji, Han joins him on his road trip, in the hopes of persuading him over time.
The duo's first stop is in Nagoya, where Ryuji wants to try their famous sweet ogura toast. Ryuji's presence in Nagoya immediately draws the attention of the Nagoya Family, who do not allow yakuza from other cities into their territory. Throughout their stay in town, Han and Ryuji are constantly accosted by masked thugs sent by the Nagoya Family to drive them away.
While sleeping in a park because Ryuji does not want to pay for a hotel, the pair run into Tatsuo Shinada, who is also sleeping in the park. Ryuji recognizes Shinada from his infamous major league debut (which, unbeknownst to Ryuji, resulted in his permanent banning from the sport due to charges of game-fixing) and asks him for an autograph. However, Shinada mistakes Ryuji's request for mockery and angrily rebuffs him. Ryuji tries to insist, but Han stops him. The pair get into an argument that results in a fight, which is only stopped when a police officer confronts them and forces them to run away. The following night, Ryuji borrows some money from Han to get the ogura toast (which he finds too sweet for his taste) and then decides to visit a local cabaret club. An annoyed Han waits outside the club for three hours while Ryuji parties. Inside the club, Ryuji runs into Shinada once more, prompting him to try to get his autograph again. When Ryuji leaves the club, he and Han are confronted by a mob of Nagoya Family thugs. The pair are forced to fight their way past dozens of men. Han insists they have to leave town, but Ryuji doesn't want to leave without getting Shinada's autograph, since he's angry that Shinada refused to give him one. 
The pair track Shinada to the same park as before, where Ryuji gets into a fight with him to get an autograph. After they're done fighting, Shinada realizes that Ryuji really is a fan and wasn't mocking him, so he gives him the autograph. The pair start talking and Ryuji gives Shinada the idea of seeking work as an adult entertainment writer, to put his passion for cabaret clubs and brothels to a profitable use. Soon after, an even bigger mob of goons from the Nagoya Family descend on Han and Ryuji, finally forcing them to leave town.
Back at the Omi Alliance headquarters in Osaka, Chairman Jin Goda appoints one of his lieutenants, Wataru Takayama, as the new Captain of the Go-Ryu Clan, meaning he will succeed him as the next patriarch of the family. Even though Chairman Goda assures Takayama that he has no intention of ever allowing Ryuji back into the Alliance, Takayama nonetheless secretly plots to kill Ryuji, to ensure he poses no threat to his new position.
