In a secret location, Heihachi grants the Journalist an interview, filling in the gaps of the Mishima Family history. He is initially turned away, but later is escorted to meet Heihachi. Unconvinced by G Corporation's now good reputation, the Journalist goes to the Mishima Zaibatsu, and tries the blackmail them into setting up a meeting with Heihachi Mishima for him. An unknown source claims that the Mishima Zaibatsu are responsible for their own satellite falling out of orbit, and the subsequent destruction as it falls to earth turns public opinion against the Zaibatsu. An Orbital Satellite then destroys G Corporation's Millennium Tower, and at some point afterwards, Kazuya shoots down the satellite in retaliation. The Journalist is with Lars, Lee and Alisa Bosconovitch when the Mishima Zaibatsu broadcasts footage of Kazuya in his devil form. Lars tells him that although he understands his reasons, he needs Jin to live so that he can stop the war he started. On seeing Jin's recovered body at a Violet Systems facility, the Journalist attempts to kill him, but is stopped by Lars. The journalist is later approached by Lee Chaolan, who tells him more about the Mishima family, and introduces him to Lars Alexandersson. He learns about Heihachi Mishima's coup to take the company from his father, and that in the same year, Heihachi killed his wife Kazumi Mishima ( née Hachijo), and threw his young son, Kazuya Mishima, off a cliff. Seeking to know the answers behind this endless Mishima war, the Journalist begins by learning about the Zaibatsu's origins as an armaments manufacturer under Jinpachi Mishima, and the company's more peaceful route taken after the war. After the destruction of his home, the Journalist begins his research on the Mishimas whilst living in a small hotel room.
