For so many years, Machi and Yahiko merely had friendly rivalry with one another. It could be said that in those years, the two of them only saw each other as their biggest competitors.

However, both of them were only around their early fifties. They grew up in the post-war period where Japan was at its weakest, most fragile moment. It was an era where people had no vision and self-esteem. They grew up during the peaceful moments and thus, there was no longer the viciousness and wickedness that their predecessors once had in their blood.

That was why after competing with one another for so many years, their main motive for competition was only for business advancements. They had never had the intention of killing their opponents.

It was like Alibaba and Tencent company bosses. Despite their competition being very fiery, they still abided by the laws and regulations.

No matter how upset they were with one another, they will still try to remain as polite and rule-abiding as possible.
