Cut Scene: 盃交渉 - Toast Negotiations:

December 12th 2012, Evening.

Nagasugai, Fukuoka.

Daigo and Madarame talk in the back of a car.

The car approaches a street where two sets of yakuza line both sides of the street. We will later see they are the members of the Yahata Family and the Toujou Clan.

Aoyama opens up the door to the car.

Daigo and Madarame continue to talk in the back of a car.

Title: Head of the Yamagasa Family: Madarame Tadashi

Daigo exits the car and Aoyama closes the door and the car leaves with Madarame.

Yahata signals for his men to leave. When they have departed, Yahata stares at Daigo and Aoyama et al., who in turn state back. Yahata prostates, touching his knees in humble respect, but when he returns to fully standing he throws a very unrespectful smirk as he walks off.

The Toujou Clan men depart, leaving Daigo and Aoyama.

Daigo gets out a cigarette which Aoyama lights for him.

Title: Toujou Clan General Manager and Head of the Aoyama Family: Aoyama Minoru

A car pulls up and Aoyama opens the door for the Toujou Clan chairman.

Daigo has other plans and starts to walk away.

Aoyama closes the door to the car and then calls over Morinaga and Aizawa and nods for them to follow Daigo.
