End scene. Yet another chapter with no extras. Hum.
Say, we put out the FIRST EVER scanlation of 122 earlier today, if any of you would like to read it. Here you are:

>H: "For the benefit of the country"...
>H: What would you have the Yakuza do?
probably more simple to say.

H:"For the sake of the Country"
H:Then you shouldn't rely on Yakuza.

>>156425596
They're two separate lines/points. He's repeating back what Utsumi said, in distaste, then addressing the fact that the Yakuza are in poor straits as well (apparently a thing in current, real Japan) - why should they be expected to do something for their enemy's benefit, without receiving any benefits of their own? The closest equivalent statement would be something like "What do you expect the Yakuza to do about it?", but that's not really what Hanayama says; he's asking what *Utsumi* would do with the chance to use the Yakuza.

>>156422995
>No smooth way to incorporate it.
"Between you police and us yakuza"?

>>156426269
H:Pick your words carefully.
H:"For the sake of the Country"
H:Then you shouldn't rely on Yakuza.
H:I feel pity for the country.

Hanayama is simply provide warning to him that country shouldn't rely on the gangster, the "public enemy" in this line.

Hanayama didn't care about "gain profit" in the first place.

>>156426404
Hm. Yeah, that totally works. I'll probably end up using that (or something very similar) in the scanlation, when we get to it in 100 years; if you don't mind.

FIRST FOR DOPPO'S DEATH.

>>156422884
That's direct translation.

"Forgive me"

Is more appropriate.

>>156426872
I'm aware. The scanlations are for the 'more appropriate' stuff; these threads are about my straight-away translations.

If you want to discuss this stuff, just email me. I'm always open to anything.

No, really, email me if you have comments, criticisms or want to/can translate for the series. We can always use more staff.

Can't wait for the anime.

>Editor Line: Without benefit, Hanayama will move!
Not for benefit, but for honor.
Hanayama makes his move.

This might suit better.

This might work more properly.
The overall concept of this chapter is showing Hanayama's personality and true motive of Utsumi.

At first Utsumi tried to convince him with honeyed word but get refused, he tried again but no point because Hana doesn't care about any profit at all. Then finally Utsumi confessed his real feeling and moved Hana.
