Yakuza: Difference between revisions

In 2001, the Yakuza is lead by siblings Asuka and Kenji, although it is unknown whether Kenji became co-leader in 2001. Asuka first comes into [[Claude]] through an old friend named [[Maria Latore]], wife of Leone Family [[Boss|Don]] Salvatore Leone. Asuka, seemingly wary following Mike's actions, has him prove his ties to the Leone Family are over by [[Sayonara Salvatore|killing Salvatore]] when he leaves [[Luigi's Sex Club 7]]. Claude kills him and later [[Under Surveillance|kills a number of Leone hitmen]] and a [[Paparazzi Purge|reporter]]. She then introduces him to corrupt [[Liberty City Police Department|LCPD]] officer [[Ray Machowski]] and her brother Kenji. An undercover police officer, posing as a Yakuza member, is [[Two-Faced Tanner|killed]] on Asuka's orders, from information provided by Machowski. Ray has Claude [[Silence the sneak|kill]] [[Leon McAffrey]], his old partner, who threatens to reveal his links to the Yakuza. Claude fails to kill him, however, and is sent again to [[Plaster Blaster|kill]] him, this time successfully, as well as his [[Gone Fishing|current partner]] who thinks is a rat. Claude also begins to work for Kenji, who first has Claude bust [[Kanbu]] [[Kanbu Bust-out|out of jail]]. Then he has Claude [[Grand Theft Auto (mission)|collect cars]] to re-pay a debt, [[Deal Steal|kill some Yardies]] attempting to form an alliance with the Cartel and collect some protection money. However, Kenji becomes irate when the Yardies and Cartel form an alliance and has Claude [[Smack Down|destroy some street vendings and kill the vendors]].
