Chapter 113

## Mission 113: Nanao Hazard

**Mission 113: Nanao Hazard** (作戦 113. ななお ハザード, Nanao Hazādo) is the one hundred and thirteenth chapter of Hitsuji Gondaira's Mission: Yozakura Family.

## Summary

Nanao Yozakura is seen standing menacingly in the hallways, holding a syringe and asking everyone to stop hiding and come out. Taiyo Asano, Shion, Shinzo and Futaba Yozakura are hiding in the halls. Taiyo asks how Kengo is doing, and Shion shows camera footage of him unconscious on the ground, stating he looks like he's dropped dead.

30 minutes earlier, Nanao is combing Mutsumi Yozakura's hair as he says it's returned to its normal colour. He doesn't understand the thing that makes her hair turn white and cause flowers to bloom, but he's taking a sample of her hair regardless. The rest of the family is also hanging out in the room. Shion says how the Old Man Hunter has no hits since the last time it did, Kengo suggests they need another way to find the past heads. Futaba tells Kengo to put clothes on, but he says he's okay since he can cover his privates with a tray. Nanao leaves the room to put away Mutsumi's hair samples. Shinzo tells him that he'll catch a cold being naked like that, but Kengo says how Shinzo is the one who is shirtless all the time. Kengo suddenly sneezes, the whole family comes to cover his face and ask if **he** heard it. They tell Kengo to be more careful in case Nanao heard, then an alarm goes off and the windows and doors begin to shut. They detect Kengo has a cold, and that all the family apart from Ai, Mutsumi, Goliath and Ayaka Kirisaki will need to have "protection protocols". Everyone panics and Kengo says they should be able to get away, but before he finishes his sentence, Nanao appears from behind and injects him. Kengo falls to the ground, knocked out as Shinzo drops a smoke bomb telling everyone to run. Nanao decides to hunt them down.

Shinzo explains that Nanao uses a medicine called Nanaomin V, it clears up all illnesses but the need is so painful that you'll pass out before you can scream. Shion and Shinzo try to navigate and find an escape route, but Nanao's hands burst from the wall and inject them. Since he know their weaknesses it was easy to sneak up on them. He comes through the wall and Taiyo fires Yae at him, but Nanao deflects it since his body is thick enough to resist electricity. He injects Taiyo and Futaba.

Nanao reverts to his normal body as he confronts Kyoichiro Yozakura in his room. He says how he warned him to not use that medicine, and that his body must be unstable at the moment. Nanao asks him to get rid of the thread wall between them, but he refuses. Nanao says how healing wounds is all he can do for the family, and he can't prevent them from getting hurt. After what happened to Mutsumi, he couldn't find the roots from Tsubomi Yozakura and is upset that he couldn't help her. Despite it being his speciality, he feels powerless. Kyoichiro hits him on the head with a ball of thread and tells Nanao that he's always harsh on himself and how he always prioritises the family business over himself. Nanao has it's the opposite, he feels like everyone coddles him for being the youngest sibling. Kyoichiro says how Nanao is always trying to catch up with his older siblings, but he's never been seen as behind them. Their family has no superiority and their age order doesn't matter to them, he reassures him as the eldest sibling. Nanao thanks Kyoichiro and says that he'll take better care of himself.

The next day Nanao has come up with a new medicine: Nanao Bull, a drink that should be more effective than Nanaomin V. He suggests that Kyoichiro should be the first to drink it since he didn't get the injection. Kyoichiro runs away but the rest of the family pin him down to drink it, it turns out to be really bitter but not painful.
