Episode 2

Majima is happy to finally prove his worth by winning the TFR Championship, but his boss is less than happy to see him going out of his way when given orders. It seems he didn't learn from Saejima's example, and forgot his real mission. And, there's only one requirement for those in the Shimano family... that he will be made to fulfill. As he screams and begs for mercy, Heavyweight and Charles show up to act on his rectification... his head was shaven bald. After they are done, the two lackeys go with Shimano to hear about some job for them.

Episode 7

On a meeting at the president's office, Shimano congratulates the president Hazz Maticus for the success of Coolsville Hills and the increased area control. Hazz refers to him as a master of street knowledge and a truly trusty man for his decisions, as well as being the fists of this government. Were it not for a strong-armed man as him, The Armstrong Surge and The Yeagerists would have driven this city to the ground, and that's exactly why Hazz wants to nominate the patriarch of the strongest mafia as his second-in-command.

Shimano only has to say that from now on, his men will keep doing their best to support the city's growth, but one day, Hazz not only will be the most powerful man in the world, but the Shimano Family will stand at his side. Hazz acknowledges him as the only man capable of standing toe-to-toe with the Sonozaki Family, a man who ought to pay Shimano for what he did in the past, but Hazz affirms that even a man of his strength will be powerless as Coolsville will under their iron fist.

Episode 8

In the past, when Shimano was threatening Cagist for some information he dealt and was about to shave his head "beyond bald", Steven Sonozaki showed up and stopped him, saving the Cagist's life by heroically stalling Shimano with all his might.

In the Shimano Family HQ, Shimano greets and thanks Ruber for his loyalty and his work on keeping the Yeagerists in check, having them disperse in time when the cops arrived to watch Eren's match. Shimano has been using the Yeagerists as front and controlling them against Hazz, and Ruber appreciates a man who has a plan.

Heavyweight arrives with the hitlist for their next jobs, and after scolding him for his attitude, Heavyweight informs Shimano that the president's name is in it for some reason. However, Shimano laughs at the fact that his very own son requested for his death. Being the second-in-command, Hazz is less than useless, and Shimano thanks Heavyweight for bringing him the list... and bringing himself as man for the job, as he can't think as anyone more perfect; Shimano puts Heavyweight in charge of the job, to the latter's dismay.

Episode 9

The TV Newscaster announces further reports about the "Eden of Coolsville Incident" and the reported assassination of President Maticus. Coolsville's Governor Deid Mann announces from the establishment's front that he's saddened about the president's sudden passing at his eighth year of mandate, and that although they didn't always agree he has surely done his best to develop the country in his career; While Coolsville's police solves the case, Chuck's will remain closed. Chuck's Suck & Fuck's Manager Vergil also has to comment on the situation that they could not prevent this due to their lack of power, and all the blame remains on them; but Chuck's will keep on sucking and be back soon enough.

Turning the TV off, a mook Joe congratulates the success of the hit, and Shimano rejoices at the final stage of their plan. That old man always had the power but he was never man enough to stand up to his family and they needed them to protect his ass, but this "muscle" had brains behind it all along. Now their last obstacle is the Sonozaki Family, and Futoshi's feud with Steven will soon be settled for good.

However, Joe also informs Shimano about Majima's truck, which leaves him dumbfounded as he didn't order any of it. Shimano ponders about the state of his subordinates, Joe leaving a strand of hair in his head, Chales disappearing, Heavyweight acting too cocky, and Majima not even acting under him... but, they are all disposable after all.
