Gaon Castle

## Overview

Unlike Gaon's upper floors, which covertly sells products for the underworld while also masquerading as a regular mall, Gaon Castle does business more openly due to being a secret floor that's not advertised. However, this is because it's a black market that sells things that are "too hardcore for the upstairs mall".

As a clandestine market, it has a rundown appearance and sketchy atmosphere. One of its shops is named **Dismemberment Clinic**.

## Plot

While Taiyo Asano and Mutsumi Yozakura were shopping at the Gaon Mall, the two find a crying little girl who tells them that her father was taken "downstairs". They find him at Gaon Castle and save him from several criminals. With the help of the rest of the family, the entire criminal group is defeated, resulting on the destruction of the basement floor as the Gaon mall sinks one whole floor.

Taiyo and Kengo Yozakura went shopping for supplies at Gaon Castle, in order to prepare for their mission finding Momo Yozakura. However, whilst shopping they were attacked by numerous spies who had a grudge on the family thanks to Momo's action. The two managed to defeat most of those who got in their way but with the arrival of Hulang to escort them, most of them left. They were later faced by another set of spies, but they were being controlled by Dark Cherries. Kengo went to fight them off but Hulang managed to defeat them all instead.

Adaptation

**Adaptation** (適応, Tekiō) is the Blooming ability of Nanao Yozakura allowing him to make all poisons and environments adaptable.

## Overview

Adaptation is the Blooming ability of Nanao Yozakura which he first unveiled in a fight against Mizuki. This allowed him to absorb and purify Mizuki's poison and gas. This ability was created by combining Nanao's Someinine and his Immunity ability. The ability not only allows him to purify poisons, but also adapt his body and environment to situations and people, to overcome them. So the stronger the opponent. the stronger Nanao becomes as he adapts to them.

The ability was created due Nanao having to adapt to his body having being mutated and his regular form, struggling to adapt to his environment.

## Usage

When Nanao blooms, he creates "Nanao Stars" from his body, these are crystallized cells of Nanao's which have the same Immunity ability as Nanao. This means they are able to to absorb and purify any dangerous substances it comes into contact with, this includes substances inside Nanao's body and any gasses around him. The spore stick close to his body but he is able to control where they go as he directed them onto Mizuki. He can also create these cells through other substances her produces like gas, seen when he guided Kyoichiro towards him after creating a gust of sleeping gas.

When facing Futaba, Nanao showed that his ability allows him to spread his mutation cells across an area, adapting to the situation in order to beat her. He can also create large clouds of poisonous gas, that he can freely choose what type to use. Nanao is also able to completely turn his body into a slime substance, allowing him to feely move around his body through the ground.

If Nanao puts enough energy into it and adapts to a location long enough, he can completely merge with that location, integrating his whole nervous system into it. Doing so gives him complete control over the area, able use use his cells and attack throughout it, but it leaves Nanao attached to the area unable to move. Nanao is able to remove himself however, it takes a considerable amount of time to do so as he needs to regain his strength and restructure himself. This process can take over a month to do. After fully integrating himself to a location, the cells can act autonomously and can attack people in the area independent of Nanao's will.

## Techniques

* **Purifying Sublimation** - The spores from Nanao attach to the target and detoxifies the target at great speeds.

**Mission 126: My Precious Family** (作戦 126. 大事な家族, Daijina kazoku) is the one hundred and twenty-sixth chapter of Hitsuji Gondaira's Mission: Yozakura Family.

## Summary

Taiyo manages to grab Kyoichiro's arm but he uses steel spider to pull him away, Taiyo uses Yae and stabs it in the ground to keep him from being flung away. The black cherry blossoms on Kyoichiro begin to wither away, with him soon to go with it. Taiyo yells out to Kyoichiro before noticing that a black cherry blossoms have begun to grow in his hand where he has touched him. Before they even have the time to react, the black cherry blossoms on his hand begin to shine brightly and the cherry blossoms for Taiyo's Profuse Blooming begin covering and removing the black ones, The spot where Taiyo touched Kyoichiro also bloomed these cherry blossoms and purifies the spot on his arm. Taiyo now realises what Kai Izumo meant when he said that only he can save him.

Despite seeing this happen, Kyoichiro still refuses to let Taiyo touch him, lashing out his steel spider towards him as Taiyo slashes them away. Kyoichiro thinks back to how the heads lured him into a trap and he begins to realise that he wasn't just their target, in fact everyone was a target, him, the Yozakura Family and the past heads. He suspects that there is something else out there targeting everything Yozakura. He knows that if he mentions any of this to Taiyo that it'll only lead to him wanting to help him more. Despite the profuse blooming most likely being able to save him, he doesn't know what that could lead to down the line, so he decided that he needs to be removed to protect the rest of the family.

Kyoichiro sends out a flurry of threads towards Taiyo but he slices through them and he dives towards Kyoichiro. Taiyo mentions that Kyoichiro's attacks have gotten more feeble, and realises how Kyoichiro is still trying to protect them all even now. Taiyo declares that he has no intention of backing down as he also swore to protect the family. After he slices through Kyoichiro's threads, he drops Yae and grabs onto Kyoichiro's whole body.

## Mission 124: Kyoichiro Vs. The Yozakura Siblings

**Mission 124: Kyoichiro Vs. The Yozakura Siblings** (作戦 124. 凶一郎 VS 夜桜姉弟, KyōIchirō VS Yozakura Kyōdai) is the one hundred and twenty-fourth chapter of Hitsuji Gondaira's Mission: Yozakura Family.

## Summary

Shion Yozakura explains that thanks to Futaba's on-site data, Kengo's profiling and Nanao's DNA samples for Shion's Old Man Hunter, they've managed to locate and surround Kyoichiro Yozakura.

Futaba asks Kyoichiro to come back with them, but after he doesn't respond she charges in to attack. Kyoichiro makes a wall of Steel Spider to block her attack, telling her to stay away from him. Kengo then uses his Kengo-Chan to grab Kyoichiro, as Nanao comes from behind and injects him with Withered Spider poison. Shinzo then uses Turmeric to surround Kyoichiro, and Futaba uses her Cascading Kumite techniques to create a cage with it. Kyoichiro however, weaves his steel spider to cut through the cage. He compliments them on their teamwork and the family sees black cherry blossoms around his body. Nanao notices that the black cherry blossoms have begun to grow on his right arm and immediately cuts it off. He injects himself with a syringe to regrow his arm as his severed arm begins to wither away.

Kyoichiro flashes back to the moment he defeated the previous heads and Ninomae Yozakura explains that their defeat caused Tsubomi Yozakura's blood to diffuse into the air and embed into Kyoichiro's body. Due to her old generation blood mixing with his, it becomes a poison that'll spread to the rest of his siblings to kill them off and protect Tsubomi. Kyoichiro asks her why she'd tell him this information, but she didn't give him an answer.

Shion checks on Kyoichiro's vitals and see's them deteriorating, suggesting that the flowers are poisonous. Nanao mentions that the cell deterioration is rapid and they have no means to save him. Futaba says that she realises why Kyoichiro ran away, believing he was protecting them, but she calls him an idiot and refuses to let him get away. Kyoichiro apologises and uses his steel spider to rip up the ground to create a burst of rocks to allow him to escape from them. As he runs away he ends up running into Taiyo Asano with his Profuse Blooming of 10,000 Flowers as he tells Kyoichiro to come home with them.

## Mission 89: Dream

**Mission 89: Dream**  (作戦 89. 夢, Yume) is the eighty-ninth chapter of Hitsuji Gondaira's Mission: Yozakura Family.

Taiyo meets Tsubomi in his sleep, she asks him to help her which leads to Taiyo asking his siblings about the silver-rank exams.

## Summary

Taiyo opens his eyes to find himself on the lap of Tsubomi Yozakura. She explains to him that due to Kawashita putting his blood inside him, she can now invade his mind as she gave her blood to Kawashita. She can only awaken briefly while the 'other' her is asleep and she asks Taiyo to kill her.

She explains to him that in order to kill her, he must have to understand her. There is an 'old' and 'current' Tsubomi, the information on the 'old Tsubomi' is written in the Book of Buds and she gives Taiyo the info on how to open it. Over the years she has become unable to share the memories of the 'current Tsubomi', so the only way to get information on her is through Kawashita. She cannot make contact with him due to the 'current Tsubomi', so she asks Taiyo to contact him directly. Due to him being locked up, the only way Taiyo can have a private meeting with him is by using a silver-rank license. The 'current Tsubomi' begins to wake up so the 'old Tsubomi' says her goodbyes.

Taiyo wakes up and heads down to the Yozakura Roots to get the Book of Buds. He is able to open the book due to him now possessing Tsubomi's blood and the information she gave him. He opens the book and understands that the information can't help him currently, but it proves that what he saw wasn't just a dream.

Taiyo asks Shion, Kengo and Nanao about the Silver-Rank Spy Exam, they ask him why he wants to take it, but he is unable to figure out how to explain everything that happened to him. The siblings say they won't pry and he probably has good reasons... then they begin to attack him to try and get him to tell them. They calm down as it was just a joke, they tell him about the exams and how they're similar to the bronze-ranked ones. The website shows that it will happen in 16 days and Kengo says that Taiyo is more than capable of passing, but there may be a problem with the examiners. The examiners for the exam are always gold-rank Spies and by narrowing down all the individuals by criteria Shion says that the next exam will have the best of the best gold-ranked spies. Shion says how there is a likely scenario that no one passes this exam, we see that she is talking about Kyoichiro, Futaba and Shinzo being the next examiners.
