Hello there I would like to make this story after being inspired by Sol Inter Umbraeby RenaMachinima so this is just a prologue of who who's who and the next chapter will show what's what.
After the fall of Major crime lord Ashikaga Yoshiteru the entire Japanese criminal was in disarray with no structure whatsoever. However all that changed when four powerful and influential men came and seized as much as they can but it still wasn't enough. New people and some under the four had joined and taken up much of the clout finally balancing the chaos. To ensure none of this happens again all Oyabuns selected one of the clans to be a mediator to keep peace between the many clans now there the most efficient group in the world of organized crime. Here are the more notable members:
Oda clan- One of the first families to assume power after Yoshteru's fall they are a cutthroat bunch that will achieve their goal by any means necessary. They're in charge of the drug trafficking since none of the other families will touch it. Only members of the Oda bloodline can take over the clan and only two direct members remain.
Oda Nobunaga: Head of the oda clan. A brutal and powerful man who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. His men are but mere pawns to him, and will go to any length to get what he wants. This makes him a very Machiavellian character.
Oichi: the younger sister of Oda Nobunaga and the fiance of Azai Nagamasa, very melancholic and insecure, always thinking that she is guilty of things. After the loss of her fiancé she has gone into catatonic state.
Nōhime: the wife of Oda Nobunaga and an expert in firearms. The beautiful and elegant Lady Nōhime is a pleasant sight among the Oda family. She has been brought up as a princess, apparently: her mannerism and way of speaking reflect this. The other defining trait she holds is her undying love for the Oyabun, Oda Nobunaga. She's in a very good relationship with the Maeda family, who are all very protective and fond of her.
Mori Ranmaru: adopted son of nobunaga eagerly desires recognition from his father and will fight eagerly for his uncle, Motochika.
Akechi Mitsuhide: former assassin that was killed after attempting a coup on the Oda family

And the only person to rival with the other three big bosses and to do it like he's a boss. He treats his subordinates like family and is a pillar of strength to the community.

Martials arts prodigy and nearly limitless stamina makes him a force to be reckoned with.
