Kyokuto-kai
Tokyo ViceKyokuto-kai is identified in the account as Gen Sekine’s former yakuza affiliation, placing it within the sequence of associations that preceded his rise as an exotic-animal supplier to organized crime figures. The evidence establishes this connection but provides no further account of the group’s structure or activities.
Documented Identity
Kyokuto-kai appears as one of the yakuza groups in Gen Sekine’s background. Before he came to Konan, he had belonged to Kyokuto-kai and had gotten into serious trouble with Yamaguchi-gumi over money. The account gives no additional details about that dispute or his departure from Kyokuto-kai.
Place in Gen Sekine’s Trajectory
After arriving in Konan, Gen Sekine was introduced by a customer to Takada-gumi, which took him under its wing. He gave Takada an exceptionally expensive dog as a gesture of thanks; the account describes this as the beginning of his connections with Inagawa-kai. Kyokuto-kai therefore belongs to an earlier stage of his history, distinct from the later connections formed through Takada and the dog trade.
