@LaonIuo Raon-nim, please check the text I left below! There's more!
In ancient Japan, there existed another organization that was never recorded. 『Blood Sakura (Ketsuzokai)』. Neither the Shogunate, the police, nor the Yakuza dared to touch them. They did not move for money. Only for 'requests' and 'oaths'. Once a request was accepted, it was finished without fail, and for traitors, even the names of their families were erased. Members each carved dragons, snakes, and demons onto their backs. Those tattoos were not decorations, but proof that they had accepted death. The Shurakai controlled assassinations, information trade, arms smuggling, and political intrigue across Japan from the shadows, and when night fell, people did not even dare to speak their name. The reason was simple. “He who speaks the name disappears the next day.” But now, hundreds of years later. The Blood Sakura has not vanished. They have merely changed their form to match the times. Those who wear suits and run corporations. Those who own hospitals. Those who move members of parliament. Those who hide blades within the police force. And the assassins who could not discard their swords. On the surface, it is an ordinary world. But once midnight passes, Japan returns to the time of the Blood Sakura. It is not the strong who survive. It is only those who do not betray until the end.
Kaicho (Chairman) The absolute ruler of the organization. The one who established the organization's rules. Very few have seen his face, and all orders are issued in the Chairman's name.
Combat Unit 『Oni』 The frontline combat force. Raids. Warfare. Escort. Forced suppression. In charge of the organization's greatest military power.
Intelligence Department 『Karasu』 (Raven) Information gathering. Government. Police. Corporations. Yakuza. Buys and sells all information, serving as the eyes and ears of the organization.
Assassination Department 『Kage』 (Shadow) Specializes in assassination. Target elimination. Infiltration. Poisoning. Sniping. Disqualified the moment their face becomes known.
Escort Guard 『Kokuryu』 (Black Dragon) The Chairman's exclusive guard. Only the strongest swordsmen in the organization are selected. If even one falls, the entire guard takes responsibility.
Wakagashira (Underboss) The Chairman's right hand. Commands all executives and leads the entire organization in the Chairman's absence.
Executioner 『Shinigami』 (Grim Reaper) Receives orders only directly from the Chairman. Execution of traitors. Execution of executives. Purges. Usually, even their existence is hidden.
Medical Unit 『Hakuzya』 (White Snake) In charge of medical affairs. Illegal surgeries. Antidotes. Treating organization members. The department combatants are most loath to be indebted to.
Finance Department 『Kinko』 (Golden Fox) Money laundering. Casinos. Corporations. Stocks. Smuggling. The organization's lifeline.
Torture Department 『Goku』 (Hell) In charge of interrogation and punishment. The goal is to make them talk. Possesses superior skills in keeping targets alive rather than killing them.
『Blood Sakura』
“Cherry blossoms are remembered not because they are beautiful, but because they bloom briefly.”
The Blood Sakura was the same.
Soaking its roots with someone's blood,
and blooming through someone's sacrifice.
The world called them a criminal organization,
but they called each other family.
Every season the cherry blossoms bloom, a new oath is born,
and on the day the petals fall, another name disappears into history.
Blood can be washed away, but an oath cannot.
So today, they leave the same words behind.
“Until the flowers fall, we do not turn our backs.”

『The Protected Ones』
In the Blood Sakura, there are beings more precious than those who carry swords.
They do not fight.
They do not give orders.
But everyone in the organization draws their sword for them.
When they smile, the organization is at peace,
and when they cry, blood flows.
The only reason hundreds of members are willing to risk their lives is simple.
Because they are the 'hope' of the Blood Sakura.
No one calls them by their names lightly.
The members simply say this:
“Flowers are not protected with swords. They are protected with lives.”
That day, too, the cherry blossoms scattered quietly,
some returned alive,
and some never returned.
But everyone held their swords with the same heart.
Hoping that the flowers would not fall.
Organization Code 「Laws of Shura」
• The Chairman's command is absolute. • Traitors are executed without exception. • The families of members are protected by the organization until the end. • Requests must be completed. • Failure can be forgiven, but betrayal is never forgiven. • The names of deceased members are engraved on the black monument at headquarters.
And keep in mind. You must be careful not to offend them. Especially if they are the ones being protected.
