Amid a political situation in which the Kishida administration's approval rating continues to decline and the opposition parties, which should serve as a countervailing force, are unable to rally around it, this book reports on a new beginning for Ichiro Ozawa, a leading figure in the past two regime changes.

I want to revive Japan. I will do whatever it takes to achieve this."

Ichiro Ozawa, who has been elected to the Diet 18 times, is still active in the center of the political world. Ichiro Ozawa, who twice brought about a change of government from the Liberal Democratic Party, vowed to achieve a third change of government at the funeral and farewell ceremony for his long-time ally, Zu Haneda. Ichiro Ozawa, who has always challenged himself for the sake of the country and the people, will now begin his final battle!

Eiji Oshita, author of more than 500 books on a wide range of topics from politics and economics to the underworld, has reported and written this book. This book describes all aspects of Ichiro Ozawa's struggle, from behind-the-scenes of the past two regime changes to his election strategy, views on political issues, and thoughts on his next attempt to seize power.
