Overview
The thematic core of their presence in Chain Man revolves around their relationship with devils and devil hunters. They operate under contractual ties with devils, trading blood for protection, strength, and power. This dangerous system of exchange is not without pulsating risks and potentially serious consequences, illustrating the precarious balance between human livelihoods and diabolical alliances. The immense power of the Yakuza faction is somewhat offset by the equally powerful Devil Hunters, resulting in an unstable and constant power struggle. This dynamic conflict results in an unpredictable and ever-changing landscape of alliances, betrayals, and power. Additionally, the faction often operates behind the scenes, using their influence and diabolical partnerships to manipulate larger events and outcomes.
Usually unyielding, they are known for the fiercely protective nature of their members, embodying the thematic undertones of loyalty and duty inherent in the Chainsaw Man. Based on their chrysanthemum symbol, the Yakuza faction remains steeped in tradition and honor even as they navigate the treacherous social and political terrain of the Chainsaw Man universe. Their complexity and indomitable spirit symbolically underscores some of the central tenets of the story, making the Yakuza faction an integral part of the Chainsaw universe.
History
From the beginning, the Yakuza's stronghold was in the underworld, with illicit trade, black markets, and covert operations that gave their reputation a familiar edge. Their meteoric rise in the underworld was bolstered by their control over the city's devil hunters, attracting a diverse and powerful roster of individuals with extraordinary abilities. Their influence reached its peak during the reign of the Second Patriarch, a time of prosperity but also a series of bloody wars with rival factions. It was then that the Chainsaw Man appeared, a name that sent chills up the spines of the Yakuza.
His chilling reputation and immense power posed a difficult challenge for the Yakuza, who had to restructure their power dynamics and strategies. But the faction was not one to give up easily. They have expanded their reach, formed strategic alliances with other bad contracts, and developed nuanced ways to strengthen their position. The rise of the Chainsaw Man heralded a massive shift in the faction's ideology. While previously focused on expansion and dominance, they began to focus on survival and maintaining influence, reflecting a shift from pure force to strategic power play.
It can be concluded that the story of the Yakuza faction in the Chainsaw Man universe is a compelling story of transformation, power, strategy and survival. Major events and characters have drastically changed their growth trajectory, but their relentless drive to persevere remains, making their stories a compelling part of the Chainsaw universe.

Geography
Their presence dominates prominent landmarks, hidden but everywhere. From underground clubs in neon-lit streets to grand traditional-style buildings, their empire spans the city in a complex web of power. Each space curated by Yakuza reveals a unique combination of traditional Japanese heritage and modern urban aggressiveness. The Yakuza are no stranger to rural areas, playing a more hidden role in local politics, organ trafficking, and illegal business activities. However, their employment is higher in urban sectors due to population density and greater variety of business opportunities. So Tokyo remains their main power.
Their range also improves when venturing into international waters. The Yakuza faction is maneuvering into various corners of the Chainsaw world to expand its influence, a silent testament to its power network and desire for expansion.
