Shinobi

Shinobi-No-Tora
The Shinobi (ninja) family are thought to be one of the four families that compose the american Yakuza. Shinobis are known as executioners within the Yakuza and recent years, their activities and whereabouts have been attracting media attention due to their rapid growth and their continuous presence in the city of Los Santos.

Business Model
Shinobi Motors is thought to be one of the very few businesses registered as their main source of income. Some media outlets report that the shop is mostly closed for public and their source of income remains a mystery.

Ex FIB agent Rupert Woolyhead revealed that the shinobi family's main income comes from drug trafficking operations. They are believed to own and control most drug-processing laboratories in the county as well as the shipment and distribution of chemicals all over the americas, europe and as far as asia. Some sources revealed that Shinobis are also mercenaries and often execute targets for a large sum of money. Last year, Laura Shinobi admitted she was starting a new business venture, Shinobi Tactical Response, to compete against Merryweather

The internal structure of the shinobi family is unknown to the public and law enforcement. While there are some notorious figures who have either legally changed their last name to shinobi or who are afiliated with the family, when questioned by police or by the press, they would never admit to be part of a criminal organisation.

However, an investigation by the LSPD revealed that at least some of the following are full family members:
 * Milan Shinobi
 * Ryu Shinobi
 * Laura Shinobi
 * Lee Shinobi
 * Howie Shinobi
 * Tyronne Shinobi
 * Markush Shinobi
