Konbanwa.

This report is likely to be a long one, so bare with me.

I firstly intercepted a Interspace Commerce IFF'd vessel in Shikoku, named Zefirka. The vessel at first did not respond to my hails and so I cut the trade lane it was about to use. I then performed a scan on the ship to find it was carrying sorted artifacts. Considered contraband if hauled by Interspace Commerce. The Vessel attempted to flee afterwards, failing to respond to comms I was forced to open fire. Here is the following audio-log of that situation.

Zefirka

Afterwards, while I was patrolling around the Battleship Myoko. I encountered a vessel with a strange IFF. They later revealed themselves as Kempeitai. I had no immediate way to confirm if they were or not, so I continued on as thought they were.

Kempeitai

Shortly after this, I encountered a Freelancer vessel flying a Hogosha fighter. I commanded them to stop while I checked the legality of this situation. I however was unable to find such a law and subsequently released them.

Freelancer Hogosha Fighter

This Freelancer later brought to my attention a law which does not exist, but claimed it did. They claimed that there was a law pertaining to vessels legally allowed to transport people, and this other freelancer transport was in violation of that law. Wishing to get to the bottom of the possible legal violation, I requested that the freelancer transport halts. They refused multiple demands to stop with silence, while giving chase I managed to consult Kusari Laws and discovered that the Freelancer was mistaken. However the other vessel still refused to reply or halt. I therefore attempted to fine the vessel for failing to comply with a Kusari State Law Enforcer, which it again ignored. The Kempeitai ship that was with me then open fired on the transport, dropping his shields. The transport still continued. The vessel failed to adhere to my warnings, and so was fired upon again.

Freelancer Transport

I encountered once Enma Loyola along with, presumably a friend of theirs at Shinagawa Station. The one identified as Sanae later identified Enma Loyola as an Outcast. Under current Kusari Law, the Outcasts are to be arrested or executed on sight. I requested backup at this stage, as I would have potentially been out-numbered if I attempted a apprehension.
Shortly after requesting backup, I noticed the Kempeitai from early was approximately six-clicks from the station, I that they must have been here for longer than I had noticed them.

Enma Loyola

I had presumed that the lack of action from the Kempeitai was the result of some unknown agreement between them and the Outcast, however I was mistaken. The situation from then on got more complicated with another Interspace Commerce ship, carrying artifacts, bearing the same name as the one before came into the space near Shinagawa Station. The vessel attempted to bribe both KNF officers at the scene. However, given the developing situation and respecting the command structure of the Kusari Navy, I later followed the lead of Ikko Kaii Seiho Isayama.

Illegal Cargo

I informed the Ikko Kaii once again about Enma Loyola, although at the time I was unsure if they were really an Outcast like I was informed by the Kempeitai. A notion Seiho Isayama voiced themself. A quick search of the Neural Net made it evident that they posture as one.

The Outcast Question

We again encountered the Interspace Commerce ship, Ikko Kaii resolved themself to deal with that situation, while I personally saw to a civilian with a cloaking device. Who left Shikoku once, then returned.
They claimed to be a member of the Cabinet, and to have special permission from a Rear Admiral. They later removed the device from their vessel.

Civilian Eagle

After this incident, we encountered three GC fighters and later a Blood Dragon in the system, they came looking for a fight and focused upon my ship, being the larger of the two KNF vessels present at the start. We were later supported by Hogosha who entered the fray, and a Bounty Hunter was on stand by wanting to enter combat. Additionally, IKN-Liu.Pen also engaged hostile, they did however manage to strike my own craft in cross fire and also fly directly into my maneuvering path, nearly causing a collision.

Fight

A Number of Freelancer later entered the system, looking to assist the Kusari State. One had an unregistered cloaking device, I warned them that this is considered illegal. They apologized for it. I permitted them to pass this once, as they were hunting hostiles. I forwarded the information to the Ikko Kaii.

Freelancer Support

The following situation saw the Freelancers attack the Kempeitai vessel assuming it was an alien. The Hogosha protected the Kempeitai and engaged the Freelancers. Once I arrived I ordered all vessels to cease fighting to get to the bottom of the situation.
