The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 1740

"What?!" Machi blurted out in shock, "Do you mean that Fujibayashi Aota is dead? Who did it? Was it that Oskian?!" 3

"No.” Masatetsu had a gloomy expression on his face a s he said, "There is a high probability that this was done by another ninjutsu family!"

"Another ninjutsu family?" Machi frowned and asked," Did any of you provoked anyone?"

"No." Masatetsu replied, "Mr. Takahashi, four of us fellow apprentices have been working for you throughout all these years. Aside from your enemies, none of us make enemies outside. So, I suspect the other party must be targeting you and acting against you instead!"

"Targeting me?" Machi blurted out, "Who could possibly be targeting me? Moreover, if the other party i s also using ninjas, then it seems as though he must come from a pretty strong background then!" 4

Masatetsu replied, "Mr. Takahashi, do you think that this was done by the Ito family? As far as I know, out o f the ninjutsu families, the famous and reputable Koga family had always been closely related to the Ito family!"

"This..." Machi also felt a little confused.

He really did not know what could possibly have

happened to Aota and he did not have any idea who could have possibly killed him too.

So, he thought to himself: "There are not that many ninjutsu families in the country now. Aside from the ninjas who are working for the Ito family, it seems as though there is no need for the other remaining families to become my enemy." 4

"Could it be that that bastard, Ito Yahiko is also plotting to kill me?!"

At this time, since Machi had already originally been planning to kill Yahiko, he had a preconception in his heart that Yahiko must have been planning to kill him too! 3

"It seems as though we are all just pretending to be amicable and sweet talking to one another when both of us are trying to kill each other at any time!" 3

"Furthermore, it would be advantageous for you to help me to keep an eye on Nanako in advance. If Yahiko decides to attack me first, then I will be able to use his daughter to threaten him and force him to commit suicide! This way, I will be able to secure double insurance for myself!"

Masatetsu immediately replied, "I understand, Mr. Takahashi! If that is the case, then I will notify my family to immediately arrange some of our ninjas to head to Kyoto so that they can secretly monitor Yahiko’s daughter!" 6

Machi gritted his teeth before he said, "Fujibayashi, you must make sure that your men will be able to kill Nanako immediately as soon as I make a phone call to them!" s

Masatetsu hurriedly promised and assured him, "Mr. Takahashi, don't worry. You can be rest assured that w e would certainly go all out to get things done for you!" 7

Machi hummed slightly before he said, "Fujibayashi, you don't have to worry. As soon as you cooperate with me to destroy the Ito family, I will definitely give you a very generous remuneration. I will also make sure that I give your junior a generous settlement allowance too." 8

Masatetsu hurriedly said, "Then I will thank you in advance first, Mr. Takahashi!"
