## Summary

At Shinjuku 04, Urara, Maruo, and Ten approach the Todoroki Alliance in hopes of them being willing to cooperate with them since their leader Kotton was once an executive member of the Enma Syndicate and had great respect for Kio. After the biker gang become hostile towards them for blocking their path, Kotton shows his face to threaten them to move and reacts in anger to Maruo's statement about how he and the others plan to defeat the Enma Syndicate, interpreting him as being disrespectful to the yakuza gang. Using her tanto as proof, Urara steps in to reveal her identity as Kio's daughter to Kotton and asks for the Todoroki Alliance's assistance in her plans. Having been told that she is of Kio's bloodline, Kotton bows down before Urara and agrees to serve under her. However, after pulling Maruo away from Urara, Kotton states his objection to working with Maruo and Ten, due to seeing them as being useless to Urara, and declares that the Todoroki Alliance will be the ones to protect her for now on. After hearing Kotton's threat on how he will force him to walk away, Maruo responds back by challenging him to try and make him.

## Plot Details

At Shinjuku 04, the main turf of the Todoroki Alliance, Urara, Maruo, and Ten approach the biker gang hoping to have them as allies. To not ruin their plans, Urara orders Maruo to not act recklessly by picking a fight with them. Ten becomes frightened after Oboro, the second-in-command of the Todoroki Alliance, threadedly demands to the three to move out of their way and is then kicked by Wakku, the Todoroki's Alliance's captain of Team 2. Seeing as how the biker gang are angrily annoyed with them, Maruo steps in with the intent of fighting back against them despite Urara's objection not to.

Kotton, the leader of the Todoroki Alliance, comes out to silence his gang for overreacting to a few children causing trouble for them, orders Wakku to not defile the Black Night Party's by staining the road with blood as a result of his violence, and demands to Urara, Maruo, and Ten to not hinder his gang's ride. Urara apologizes to Kotton for getting in his gang's way and asks that he take a moment of his time to speak with her and her allies. Maruo then sees Kotton about to use his bike to run over Urara and steps in to shield her, though he knew that he was only bluffing and sees his tire stopping halfway to his face. Kotton sees that Maruo and Urara are gutsy but warns them that he will actually run the mover the next time. Moving on as to why they came to meet to the Todoroki Alliance, Maruo tells Kotton that he, Urara, and Ten wish to have the Todoroki Alliance support the Urara Family's plans to take down the Enma Syndicate, as well as get payback on Doppo. Kotton then angrily glares closely at Maruo after interpreting his statement as being disrespectful to the yakuza group.

As this is happening, Urara remembers her group's planning conversation on how Kotton is the most likely choice out of the Four Major Factions, who were once executive members of the Enma Syndicate in the past, to ally with since he had greatly admired Kio while he was of service to him. While looking at the past photos Ten brought, Maruo looks closely at one of the members grouped together and thinks to himself that he has seen him before. Maruo questions Urara if their plan to have the Todoroki Alliance cooperate with them will work since they don't have a high enough reputation to give them a reason to support their cause. Despite what Maruo says was true, Urara states that she must try to do whatever she can.

Using her tanto as proof, Urara gets down on her knees to reveal her identity as Kio's daughter and asks for the Todoroki Alliance's cooperation. Kotton becomes shocked by this and bows before Urara. He then expresses his apologize for not preventing Kio's death since he was very grateful for what he has done for him and tells Urara that he is willing to have the Todoroki Alliance aid her. With the Todoroki Alliance on board, Oboro declares to the gang that they ride for Urara in celebration. Though flattered, Urara states that she must reject the idea since she was short on time and would rather discuss the group's next move, though she hears Maruo preferring to go off of Oboro's suggestion.

Maruo is then thrown to the side by Kotton and becomes confused by his actions since they decided to become allies. Kotton corrects Maruo, stating that the Todoroki Alliance are willing to join forces with Urara but not with him and Ten, seeing as how he views them as being useless to her. Though he hears Urara's objection to cast them aside, Kotton explains to her that she needed "big wings" in order to survive in Kabukicho, which Maruo and Ten did not have, and demands to Maruo that he walk away before he forces him to. Maruo then responds back by saying that he would like to see him try.
