Hirose-gumi

The Hirose-gumi was a subsidiary family of the Onomichi, Hiroshima-based Yomei Alliance yakuza organization. It was founded by Toru Hirose, and it consisted of just six members who ran a protection racket and a baseball team, the Jingai Thunder. The clan allied with Kazuma Kiryu of the Dojima-gumi against the Jingweon Mafia and Chinese triads in Kabukicho, Tokyo, and Tsuyoshi Nagumo became the boss after Takeru Kurusu killed Hirose upon discovering that Hirose had been responsible for several murders related to keeping the "Secret of Onomichi". The Hirose-gumi then helped Kiryu defeat Katsumi Sugai of the Sugai-gumi and Tsuneo Iwami of Iwami Shipbuilding, after which the Hirose-gumi returned to their normal lives in Onomichi.
