Bonten is Japan's most powerful, feared and influential criminal organization, an entity that dominates the world of organized crime on a national and international scale. Bonten is a corporate criminal empire, with a modern hierarchical structure, virtually unlimited resources and absolute control over multiple illegal and legal sectors.
Its power is so great that it surpasses any traditional yakuza union, influences politics, the economy and international organized crime, operates both in the shadows and in broad daylight through front companies.
Bonten seeks control, stability and total domination.
Origin and History:
It arises when the Japanese crime world enters a new era. Former youth gangs, street gangs and disorganized clans begin to disappear or be absorbed.
In that power vacuum, Manjiro Sano appears, a leader who leaves behind the impulsive chaos of youth and creates a cold, extremely disciplined, relentless and strategic organization.
Bonten was born as an evolution of crime, not as a rebellion. From its inception it eliminates competition without unnecessary wars, absorbs minor organizations through fear or negotiation, establishes a solid hierarchical system.
In a few years, Bonten ceases to be an emerging organization and becomes the center of Japanese crime.
