the young leader of the Osaka Ishiguro Group.

As a young Yakuza member, I had no idea...

this would lead to such a bloody battle.

I know now that that was the beginning of everything.

Hey! It's here!

Hey, brother! Come over here!

Hey, guys!

Brother!

It's been a while.

Nice car. Business been good?

No way I could afford this on my regular pay.

It's my boss's.

I will get my own when I win big in gambling.

Get in the car, will you?

We met Toshio three years ago...

when we were sent to work with the Asakura Group in Osaka.

We hit it off with Toshio right away.

Work harder!

Do it again!

We worked together and always got into street fights.

Outta the way!

What're we gonna do, brother?

Those assholes!

What the hell? Who are they?

They're the Fujioka Group.

Fujioka Group?

We're back, sir.

Ryo! Ken! - Brother!

Wash all the trucks before dinner.

Yes, sir!

Hidenobu FUKIOKA Leader of the Fujioka group

There were two yakuza groups in Kyushu. Our Tatsuno Group and the Fujioka.

We didn't bother each other that much...

until we agreed with Hirokichi Asakura, boss of the Ishifuro Asakura group...

Mitsuyoshi ISHIGURO Leader of the Ishiguro Group until we agreed with Hirokichi Asakura, boss of the Ishifuro Asakura group...

until we agreed with Hirokichi Asakura, boss of the Ishifuro Asakura group...

Hirokichi ASAKURA Leader of the Ishiguro Asakura Group until we agreed with Hirokichi Asakura, boss of the Ishifuro Asakura group...

Hirokichi ASAKURA Leader of the Ishiguro Asakura Group to join his group 10 years ago.

Tadashi TATSUNO Leader of the Tatsuno Group to join his group 10 years ago.

Tadashi TATSUNO Leader of the Tatsuno Group

Tadashi TATSUNO Leader of the Tatsuno Group Back then, the Ishiguro Group was gaining power all over Japan.

Back then, the Ishiguro Group was gaining power all over Japan.

Haruyasu IKENAGA Lieutenant of the Tatsuno Group Back then, the Ishiguro Group was gaining power all over Japan.

Haruyasu IKENAGA Lieutenant of the Tatsuno Group When we wore the Ishiguro group's pin...

When we wore the Ishiguro group's pin...

most of the other yakuza were too afraid to mess with us.

So we did anything we wanted.

We're so sorry!

You idiots!

How could you come back here after losing a fight?

Why are you so afraid of the Ishiguro family?

You're all so worthless!

Honey, please stop! Let me take care of their wounds!

Shut up, bitch!

Shame on you!

Without having any connections, the Fujioka Group started to lose its power.

Now most of this city is under the Tatsuno Group's power...

and the Fujioka are only active in construction-related business.

TATSUNO

TATSUNO Welcome, sir.

Welcome, sir.

The founder of the group was Kyuzo Tatsuno, my great-grandfather.

Our current boss, Tadashi, is the third generation leader.

He started to get involved with financial business and collection...

so now we're bigger than ever.

Sir.

Here is a little souvenir from our bosses.

They're sending you their best regards.

How're Boss Asakura and Mr. Tugawa doing?

They're doing pretty well, sir.

Thank you for letting me stay here for a while.

Sure.

Well then, we're leaving.

y Yo! ey, Shoji!

This is my friend from Osaka.

Oh, so you work for Tsugawa?

My name is Toshio Maekawa. Nice to meet you, sir.

Now you kids are gonna hit the town, right?

Yeah.

He's in a bad mood.

Don't let him bother you.

Treat yourself with this.

Thanks!

Don't do anything crazy.

Thanks!

Why doesn't our boss give us money?

He's so stingy! But Mr. Ikenaga's pretty nice.

Isn't he your uncle?

Well, he's more like...

He's your deceased mother's cousin, or second cousin, right?

I don't remember! Anyway, he raised me.

How complicated.

The Tatsuno Group is run only by blood-related family members.

For three.

That'll be 1500 yen.

I don't have another 500 yen.

Whisky and tonic.

I'll have the same.

Brother!

What's going on?

Oh, idiots from the Fujioka Group.

They're looking for some chicks to take home.

We can't let them do that here, brother!

We won't let them. They can't compete with us.

Kyushu may be smaller than Osaka...

but I can show you that this city's got great women, too!

Show me, then.

All right!

Hey, who is she?

Which one?

The pretty one with the big tits!

Stop kidding around! That's Shoji's little sister, Akiko!

Are you serious?

Hey! Your friend's from Osaka, right?

She's Akiko.

My name's Toshio.

Hey, Akiko.

Are you here with your girlfriends?

Yeah. - How many?

Three of us.

Bring them over!

Are you going to treat us?

No problem!

Now we'll ask some of you to join us on stage.

Anyone want to sing tonight?

Here! We got a singer!

You go ahead.

Play Sexy Baby for me.

You always walk around, shaking your ass, looking for men

What a sinful woman you are! Sexy baby!

You're laying down in bed, waiting for me to get there

What a hot woman you are, driving me crazy! Sexy baby!

I got you! I have your soul on my arms! I got you! And I'll never let you go!

Stop this horrible song!

You're making our ears bleed!

You make our drinks taste awful!

Your sexy face is driving me crazy!

You always ask me to give you more! Sexy baby!

I have something to tell you. Come with me!

This is serious business, so listen carefully.

Listen to what?

Your singing blew me away.

So what?

I want to make you a professional singer.

Me? A professional singer?

That's right!

I'm sure you've got what it takes to be a star!

Please tell me your name.

Brother!

I'm gonna be a professional singer!

It's no time to be joking around!

I'm not kidding! Look at this!

Toshio! Akiko!

Get my jacket!

Wash the blood off your face.

Even if you weren't involved, the police will arrest you when they see your face.

Take a look at yourself, brother!

Shut up!

Brother!

What about Toshio and Akiko?

I'm sure they're fine.

But it's Toshio's first time in this city.

Don't worry.

I wonder if they're okay.

They know their way around here.

Do you want me to take you to your place?

I don't want to go home yet.

You threw it so far.

It was my dream to be a professional baseball player.

I was a pitcher ever since I started playing baseball.

I wanted to play in the minor league in high school.

And then straight to the pro leagues - The Hanshin Tigers.

Mommy, I'm home.

Toshio!

Wait up, Toshio!

Ever since I was born, there were only two of us: me and my mother.

I loved my mother.

It was in ninth grade.

I thought he'd take my mother away from me.

Then I was sent to a juvenile detention center...

and my baseball dream was over.

What an idiot.

You're lucky enough to have memories of your mother like that.

I think that's pretty cool, 'cause I don't have any.

What a boring life I have.

I never dreamed about going anywhere.

My mother died when I was three.

I was raised by my brother...

with dirty money from horse and bicycle races.

Share your passionate stories with me.

Share your passionate stories with me.

Brother, they're here!

Really?

You bastard!

What are you doing, brother?

Did you sleep with her?

I fell in love with him!

What? I didn't know you were such a slut as to fuck a guy you just met!

If you want to hit her, hit me instead.

I sure will!

Please stop it, brother!

What're you looking at? You better clean up your mess.

I'll take responsibility. I'll ask her to marry me.

What did you say?

Only if she agrees to marry me, though.

What great news, brother!

There's no better person for Akiko!

Once they get marry, you'll be real a brother-in-law to Toshio.

You and me are real cousins...

so then me and Toshio will become cousins, too!

Isn't that awesome, bro?

Enough!

Toshio...

Forgive me for what I did.

You know we lost our parents when we were young.

Akiko is my one and only sister.

I think we'll have a toast, Mr. Tatsuno.

I'm not good at formal speeches.

Then what about Grandpa Wada?

I know you're all very busy...

but thank you very much for gathering here today for this special occasion.

Well, this time I will announce Akiko and...

Come on, say it!

You do it.

Well, we're announcing Akiko and Toshiro's engagement tonight.

They're still young, so we'll do our best to support them.

You know, my wife and I raised Akiko like our own daughter.

Now that you're marrying her, you'll be like a son to us.

We'll support you, no matter what, okay?

Thank you for everything.

I'll look after Akiko and make sure no other man comes near her.

Please come back soon for her, okay?

Why don't you get in the car, Akiko?

Don't be so nosy.

Brother!

You can leave me whenever you want.

Hey! Whose territory do you think this is?

Why do we have to pay you consolation money?

The bike racing stadium belongs to us.

It's not very smart of you to fuck around with us there.

Don't be ridiculous!

That area's belonged to us since my great grandfather's time!

You understand?

Unlike you, we're an independent yakuza group.

You're such an idiot!

If you're calling us dependent, then I can call you morons without a future.

Being part of bigger power is better.

Because of your stubbornness, you ruined your group, idiot!

Don't call me an idiot!

My grades have been better than yours since kindergarten.

Hey, boss! Don't listen to him.

Listen up.

I'll give you one last warning, for old time's sake.

Give us 300,000 yen right now, otherwise our young Ishiguro won't stay quiet.

I'd rather pay tax than give you any money!

Now beat it!

After all that, we didn't get my consolation money.

You need to pay us!

We'll kick your ass first, 'cause you're the oldest.

What did you say?

Keiichi got stabbed in his right arm...

so we'll take your right leg!

Let's go back. Take their trucks, too.

We were heading home feeling great.

But meanwhile in Osaka...

Kansai Ishiguro Group deciding the new young leader for Osaka was the biggest issue.

deciding the new young leader for Osaka was the biggest issue.

Shigeo SAMEJIMA and Hirokichi ASAKURA Leaders of the SAMEJIMA and Asakura Groups deciding the new young leader for Osaka was the biggest issue.

Shigeo SAMEJIMA and Hirokichi ASAKURA Leaders of the SAMEJIMA and Asakura Groups

Shigeo SAMEJIMA and Hirokichi ASAKURA Leaders of the SAMEJIMA and Asakura Groups To become the new leader of Osaka means to become...

the boss of the entire Ishiguro family...

Tsuyoshi AKINE and Toshio HANAMURA Leaders of the Akune and Hanamura Groups the boss of the entire Ishiguro family...

Tsuyoshi AKINE and Toshio HANAMURA Leaders of the Akune and Hanamura Groups

Tsuyoshi AKINE and Toshio HANAMURA Leaders of the Akune and Hanamura Groups with more than 4500 members and 600 groups.

with more than 4500 members and 600 groups.

Hayato OMAE Leader of the Omae Group with more than 4500 members and 600 groups.

Hayato OMAE Leader of the Omae Group

Hayato OMAE Leader of the Omae Group Everyone expected Hirokichi Asakura to be the next young leader.

Everyone expected Hirokichi Asakura to be the next young leader.

Shoji TAKAOKA and Renji KOGA Leaders of the Takaoka and Koga Groups Everyone expected Hirokichi Asakura to be the next young leader.

Everyone expected Hirokichi Asakura to be the next young leader.

However...

The young leader's position has been empty since Yamazaki's death.

I think we'll leave the position like this for a while.

I want everyone to support Hanamura and Asakura.

Only if we work together, can we make it all work out.

Welcome! - Welcome back, sir.

Hey, boss. I got some great souvenirs for you from Manila.

Shut up!

I've got to go.

Are you leaving so soon?

I can't stand it when he's in a bad mood.

Oh, don't forget about our primary meeting next week.

The primary meeting? Did you hear that?

Hey, you guys work harder and earn lots of money!

And you, especially!

Takeshi TSHUGAWA Youth Leader of the Asakura group

What was their decision?

Well...

Our boss told me and Hanamura to share the responsibility for a while.

What do you mean by that?

He's planning to make us fight over the position.

You can't be serious!

I can't take the shame!

I can't stand him thinking me and stupid Hanamura are on the same level!

I'm totally with you, sir! I think our leader is aging too fast.

I won't let Hanamura win this game.

What if he becomes the next young leader, as soon as our boss dies?

He'll get rid of me and this group!

You're right, sir.

I know!

That's why I'm going to do anything I can to pull his legs.

I don't care if I have to start a war.

Do you want to fight him?

I know that...

it won't be easy, because Hanamura and I belong to the same Ishiguro family.

We can't start a war without justification.

You have any other good ideas?

How about getting Hanamura involved with our family's fight?

What do you mean?

I know who wants to fight.

Where to, sir?

To Kyushu.

Are you going to see the Tatsuno group, sir?

It's none of your business.

Give it to me.

What are you doing?

You needed to...

You need to make a right turn.

Are you listening to me? Hurry up!

Fujioka Construction

Keep this with you and wait for me here, okay?

I'm Takeshi Tsugawa.

I'm Fujioka.

Please have a seat.

Can you tell them to leave us alone?

We're all family, so no need to worry about spreading rumors.

Have a seat, please.

I'm asking you to start a fight with the Tatsuno group and get rid of them.

The Tatsuno group is your parent group.

It's like a child killing his parents.

Tell me why you're doing this.

I can't give you any details...

but if you need money and weapons to do it, we'll take care of that.

What do you say?

What a strange feeling I have...

This past 10 years, the Tatsuno group and us were rivals.

Only, because the Ishiguro group had Tatsuno's back...

we suffered so much.

I hated you so much.

Toshio...

Forget about everything you saw.

Don't tell anyone you came to Kyushu with me, okay?

Hey, two cups of coffee.

There was an urgent conference held in Osaka.

The heads of 63 groups were called to attend.

Shoji and I went with our boss. We saw Toshio there, too.

I think there's some sort of tension in this group.

Some of you aren't paying attention to what I've said.

Especially the Tatsuno Group.

You haven't submitted your 20 million yen to us yet. What's going on?

As you know, our city is known for its metal.

The metal industry is suffering from the depression so...

You're talking about depression?

All of Japan is suffering from a depressed economy!

I heard you're doing quite well in the loan-shark game.

I also heard that you gave an expensive kimono to Hanamura the other day.

How could a person who hasn't submitted money to our boss afford that?

Let me explain.

I gave that gift because he did me a favor when I was in Osaka...

Enough bullshit!

You've been looking down on our boss lately.

Who the fuck do you think you are?

Let me make this clear:

A person like you is called an idiot.

You're worth less than a dog!

Did you just call me a dog?

Yeah. So what if I did?

I've had enough of you!

I'm not saying that I won't submit the money...

all I'm asking for is a little more time!

Tatsuno!

Are you speaking against the young leader of the Asakura?

That means you're speaking against me!

Apologize now! Put your head on the floor and apologize to him!

No, I won't! Because I didn't do anything wrong!

How can you talk to me like that?

Why are you looking at me like that?

I've had enough of you!

You're now banned!

Leave this place immediately!

Let's go.

Hurry, up! We're leaving!

Did you hear me? Prepare my car!

I heard that Mr. Asakura kicked Mr. Tatsuno out of his group.

That was all nonsense.

I was just talking to my boss...

Maybe Mr. Asakura's making his move now.

Well, I think we're not so flawless either.

Don't be so modest, brother.

We're old friends from since we were locked up together.

Why couldn't you ask me for help when you were in trouble?

My boss is concerned about you, too.

He said he would help you when you decide to attack the Asakura.

I appreciate that...

but I won't fight against the parent group.

Please send my best regards to Mr. Hanamura.

Shingo TAKAGI Youth Leader of the Hanamura Group

So, what did they say?

They told me that they'd help us, if we fight the Asakura.

Did you accept the offer?

If Mr. Hanamura has your back, maybe we can...

Mr. Tatsuno, don't get the wrong idea.

A child attacking his parents is against righteousness.

Accepting Hanamura's offer will put us in the middle of their war.

Asakura and Hanamura will kill us all.

I know it's hard for you, but please be patient and apologize to Mr. Asakura.

If we don't make the right decision, this will be the end of the Tatsuno group.

So please.

Neither our boss nor our young leader want to see your face.

It doesn't matter how long you stay here.

Please do us a favor. We'll wait, no matter what.

What stubborn people you are!

I should've never apologized to them!

Why did you make me do that?

It's all your fault! Shit-head!

Hey, what are you doing? Stop!

Stop it!

Stop!

Please calm down... Calm down!

I think there's a plot behind all this.

What do you mean?

From the urgent meeting, everything seems in place to destroy our group.

Hey, Toshio.

Come over here.

Have a seat.

You're friends with those guys, right? Tatsuno's bodyguards.

What are their names?

Shoji Negishi and Keiichi Mizunuma.

Yeah, that's right. Negishi and Mizunuma are staying at the Central Hotel.

I guess they're leaving tomorrow morning.

Go hang out with your friends, okay?

And also ask them what time their train is tomorrow.

What are you going to do?

We're going to kill Tatsuno.

Once you find out their train schedule, go to Kyushu and meet Fujioka.

Bring Fujioka's man and wait for Tatsuno in the train station. Understand?

Are you telling me to betray my friends?

Please don't make me do this!

You idiot!

Which is more important to you, friends or family?

If you can't work for your family, you can't be a yakuza!

Why do you think you became one of us?

Have a seat.

Who helped you to become one of us...

when you were a junior high school drop-out with a criminal record?

That was me, remember?

I'll ask you one more time:

Do you want to do this and be a real man? Or die on the street like a loser?

I'm sorry sir, but please give me more time to think.

Don't be so ridiculous. Just say yes!

Once you do this right, I'll give you a big reward.

A reward? - Yeah.

Didn't you want to start gambling on baseball?

You mean, minor leagues?

No, professional league! It'll be a great business!

I'll give you many young fellows to work for you, too.

Give me your answer now!

Brother!

There could be a big war between our groups.

No, thanks.

Hey, Toshio.

Can you leave this yakuza life and make an honest living?

You're marring Akiko.

When Akiko gets a job, you guys can make a decent living, right?

I guess you can't.

I know it's selfish of me to ask you to do this.

I know it's out of our power to stop this conflict...

but all we can do is to promise not to kill each other.

That's right. That's all we can do.

Can you promise that, Toshio?

Let's go now.

We're taking the 9:15 train, so we can't stay too long.

We're leaving.

Wait up!

Please keep your promise to pick up Akiko, all right?

Thank you, sir.

We got the train schedule.

We're taking the over-night train.

They're arriving at 12:29.

He'll be in the green car, as always.

It's right here.

I'm sure we can spot him.

There shouldn't be anybody welcoming him at the station this time.

We'll prepare for three shooters.

The first shooter will be Morihiro.

If he fails, the second shooter is Shinji.

You go.

And if he fails, the third shooter is Katsutoshi.

Everyone got it?

Let me be the first shooter!

What?

You're not ready yet.

I can do this! I'm ready!

Only give me the chance, and I promise that I'll kill him!

Please let me take my revenge!

Fine.

Noboru, you will be the first shooter.

Then the second shooter goes after, all right?

Noboru...

Timing is everything.

First, get his bodyguards' attention, and then shoot him.

The Hikari 21 to Hakata will soon arrive in this station on platform 15.

Everyone please stand behind the yellow line for your safety.

Please mind the gap and hold your children's hands for their safety.

You have arrived in Kogura.

Thank you for choosing to travel with us.

This train is the Hikari 21 to Hakata.

Please mind the gap when you enter or exit the train.

Next stop is Hakata.

Shoji!

Toshio!

Where are you, Toshio?

Toshio!

Boss!

Fujioka had you to do this, didn't he?

Don't do this now! He's in a critical condition!

Please be quiet. - Shut up!

Akiko? It's me, Toshio. Can I see you now?

So Uncle Tadashi is...

He's probably dead.

But why did you take such a job?

I had no choice.

What were you thinking of?

You don't think of me at all, do you?

I see, I was just a slut you fucked on the first night.

That's not true.

Then explain it to me!

Because I said so!

I can't trust you, no matter what you say.

Do you have any information about the guy who helped Fujioka's assassin?

It's none of your business! We don't need any help from the police!

Get out of here!

Did he try to contact you?

Forget about him, Akiko.

I will never forgive him for what he's done.

As soon as I find him, I'll kill him.

We found him.

He's hiding from the police and still in town.

Who told you that?

My niece works at a nightclub. He goes there at night.

So the police haven't caught him yet. - Not yet.

That's good. Do everything to find him.

Honey?

My brother's looking for you. Hurry and run away.

I don't want you and my brother to kill each other.

How could you?

Why did you hide him from us? What kind of sister are you?

Damn it! Kill me now!

Let me take care of this.

Do it!

I don't want your dirty blood on my jacket.

Bury him alive.

Are you nuts, Akiko?

I'm not crazy. You're the one that's crazy!

He's your best friend! Why are you doing this to him?

But he used us!

Not only did he use us, he betrayed our friendship!

Move, Akiko!

No, I won't! Bury me with him!

Damn it!

No!

Why are you still obsessed with him?

Brother...

Move away from him, Akiko.

Brother...

Akiko, you really can't live without him?

What are you saying, Uncle?

I don't agree with this!

You all need to agree with me!

We don't need to take his life, just beat him up a bit.

Okay.

Akiko, you don't belong to our family anymore.

Remember that.

Brother...

Don't speak to me!

You're not my sister anymore. We have nothing to do with each other.

Brother...

I guess they have no respect for the rules of a street fight.

As I promised, I will support you in any way I can.

Let me send you some weapons.

I prefer to exchange sake instead, Mr. Hanamura.

Hey, that's a problem.

If we ally ourselves with the group Asakura got rid of...

that means we're taking a step towards war with them.

We can help you behind the scenes.

Remember, Asakura and Hanamura are both in the Ishiguro family.

Wait until my father becomes the leader, but until then we can only do that.

I know you understand me.

Anyway, send your young men to Himeji to pick up the money and weapons.

I promise you won't be disappointed.

Osaka Station

Takura Sou

Are you okay?

You need to go see a doctor.

We need a futon.

I'll go try to rent one.

I need to get going, too.

Where are you going?

To see my boss, of course.

Please put up with this horrible place for now, but everything'll get better soon.

Hey, Toshio.

Wait in the kitchen.

Oh, Toshio!

Forgive me for my late return.

You did a great job.

What happened to your leg?

Tell me what happened.

Tatsuno's men did it, sir. It's not as bad as it looks.

I see.

Have a seat. Standing up isn't good for you.

Are you okay?

Well, I'm going to give you a reward.

Here you go.

Treat yourself to some good food.

Excuse me, sir.

What else?

About the baseball gambling?

Oh, that.

It will happen soon, so don't worry.

Hey, have a seat! Eat some sushi and relax.

It'll all be okay.

We're having a pretty good gambling match tonight!

Oh, heavy days...

Day by day, no matter what happens, we're on the dirty streets of this city

Oh, gloomy days...

Day by day, my soul is rolling down the hill...

With Uncle Yasu as our new leader, we guarded our turf well...

but as soon as the young men found out that Asakura has Fujioka's back...

they all left us and joined the Fujioka group.

It was the reverse of the situation 10 years ago.

Now the Fujioka group has most of the gambling stadiums and city territories.

Uncle Yasu had to make a big decision in order to keep our group alive.

One night he said...

Keiichi, you should stay here and help Uncle Yasu.

What're you saying? We did everything together ever since we were born!

Come on, brother!

Listen to Shoji for now, Keiichi.

Yasu, I will lead them.

Thank you for doing that.

Seiji, can you come with us?

Three of us can do that easily! All right?

But be very careful.

Brother!

Brother!

Brother! Please don't die!

Brother!

Brother!

Brother!

After attacking the Fujioka Family, Shoji ran away.

Most of the Fujioka were Killed instantly.

Uncle Seiji received minor injuries and was arrested.

Known for his kindness and wimpiness, Uncle Seiji told everything to the police...

including that the weapons were from Hanamura...

and that Uncle Yasu had been the one who planned this.

As a result of all that...

Divide this money between you guys.

Uncle Yasu, what do you mean?

I'm under arrest. I'm going to turn myself in now.

Honey, you have a previous record.

That means you'll be put away for life.

Please run away!

If you don't run away, the Tatsuno group will be finished!

You can't let that happen! It isn't like you!

Satoko...

Thank you for saying that.

Well then...

I'm going to keep running till the end of this world.

That was the end of the Tatsuno Group, which had existed since the Meiji period.

Then the police investigated the Hanamura group...

and arrested Mr. Hanamura for possession of illegal weapons.

Soon after, Mr. Asakura got the young leader position in the Ishiguro group.

Take him to the hospital!

That was a terribly small funeral.

I couldn't stop wondering how big it would've been had it been before the battle.

That made me cry even more.

Akiko, how's Toshio doing?

Do you want to know...?

What did you say?

Nothing.

Are you going back to Osaka after this?

Yeah, I have to go to work.

I see.

Can you take care of the rest?

You go to the front.

What do you want?

Excuse me, sir. How long should I wait?

What do you mean? His funeral is tomorrow.

No, I'm talking about the baseball gambling.

You idiot!

What are you thinking? We're in the middle of our boss's wake.

But you've kept me waiting for a long time.

Get out of the car, I'm going to drive him.

Idiot!

Are you trying to kill me, driving with one foot?

I wouldn't do that!

Don't ever show your dirty face to me again!

Mr. Asakura's death didn't harm the group at all.

Mr. Tsugawa got the position and the ceremony went smoothly.

In order to help the survivors of the Tatsuno group...

all the land and property was sold and everyone went their separate ways.

I was lost and didn't want to care about anything anymore.

Then I came to Tokyo.

J&K Production

The ocean makes me feel nostalgic...

It makes me feel like I've seen that white boat before...

That leads me to dream about another world...

and takes me to an ocean filled with love...

Even though a big storm may come...

Uncle Yasu...

I finally found you guys.

He stared using morphine to ease the pain, but...

So you're supporting him.

Please don't tell me that you're working as a prostitute.

Don't worry. I'm just working as a hostess in a bar.

I see.

How's your Asakura group, Toshio?

I can't work now, because of my leg.

He was expelled from the group.

Is that so?

If you want to kill me, just do it.

Don't be ridiculous.

Then are you after Mr. Tsugawa? I can help you out.

Has anything changed since Shoji killed Asakura?

If killing him would bring back the Tatsuno group, I'd do it.

Money...

What I need is money now.

If I can get a good financial source, I can re-establish the Tatsuno group.

I have one million yen here.

I need to multiply this money right away. Do you have any ideas?

Cocaine, maybe.

What are you talking about? You two need to wake up!

Take a look at this horrible reality.

Look at him. He's a real loser.

Shut up, bitch! It's none of your business!

You're a real idiot!

What did you just call me?

Stop that!

Forgive me. It was my fault for raising it with him.

Don't worry about it.

Honey!

Go to your work now!

Order some dinner with this money.

Won't you be staying here tonight, Uncle?

After we get some money, please take Akiko back to Kyushu.

I beg you.

What are you doing? Stop that!

It took me 10 years to save up that 700,000 yen!

I saved this money for you!

Stop it! Stop it!

Then why can't you give it to me right now?

I'm not taking it. I'm borrowing this from you.

I'll give it to you, once you leave that yakuza group!

I need it right now!

Toshio! Stop it!

2 million yen won't be enough.

You don't have any money left to hire a retail business.

We'll take care of that ourselves.

How much do we need to get cocaine from them?

You need 5 million yen.

I have a sore throat.

Thank you for waiting!

Let me see. Your boobs are out of shape.

We need another 3 million yen...

Even if I'm all alone, I have my song...

That's why I keep singing...

Even though a big storm may come, I have my song

My song is created by solitude and love

That's the song I'm going to sing

Good job!

Great work!

Can you play the drums stronger next time?

Keiichi Mizushima's next performance will be held at 6 pm.

Toshio!

Thank you for coming! How's Akiko?

I need to borrow money from you. I need 3 million yen.

What?

Please.

I don't have that much money.

I'm still getting a monthly salary from my management office.

Then let me talk to the manager.

Hey, Toshio!

Wait up, Toshio!

Will you leave us alone?

Don't you think it'll be a big scandal, if people find out about your past?

That's a bargain price for your manager to pay me as hush-money.

I feel like you're threatening me.

I don't care what you think, but I need that money.

Toshio...

Hurry up.

I got angry at him at first...

but I told my manager everything, and borrowed money from the office.

This is the first and last time.

Don't ever approach us again. We'll call the cops next time, understand?

How long do we have to wait?

It's been almost a month since I paid you the money!

Don't make me repeat it again.

The police nabbed our Filipino source, so we're using a different connection.

That's enough.

I'll go back to Kyushu and find another dealer. Give me back the 5 million.

I don't have it anymore. I gave them the money.

You gave it to who?

To the dealer, of course.

You liar! You said you'd hold on to it until the deal was finalised.

I said so, but things have changed.

You tricked us!

So what if I did?

What did you say?

You heard me!

Are you going to go to the police and report this to them?

Give us the money back.

What did you say?

Give us the money back.

Shut the fuck up! What're you going...

Run!

Forgive me for this mess.

I should've paid more attention.

All we can do is to get the money back from his boss.

Hey, take us to Tsurumi, will ya?

Are we going to Tsugawa's place?

Great, I can finally kill him.

Hey, Toshio. What're you doing?

Is Tsugawa here?

Yes he is, but he won't see you.

What the hell are you doing, Toshio?

Toshio!

Give us the money back!

Money? I don't know what you're talking about.

I know you have it here.

You're going to regret this.

Give it to me!

It's over there.

What a loser! A yakuza acting like a thief!

A loser like you, who depends on a whore!

Toshio!

Toshio!

Boss!

Boss! - Chase them!

Uncle Yasu!

Tell us where Toshio is!

What has he done?

Don't act like you don't know!

He hasn't been home for a week! I really don't know where he is!

Tell us!

That's enough.

Take her home.

Let her go, but keep an eye on her.

Toshio will approach her soon.

Akiko? It's me.

Honey, where are you now? I want to see you.

Are you alone in the room?

Where are you now?

You need to go back to Kyushu.

Listen to me.

Being with me will just make you miserable.

No, I won't go back to Kyushu.

Let me see you, please! I'll be careful.

Tell me, where are you?

I need to ask you a favor.

I'll send someone to your place tonight, so pack up my stuff and give it to him.

What'll I do without you?

You're not going to Kill yourself, are you?

I need to see you.

I want to see you.

I want to see you...

To Sizu Aiba

To Keiichi Mizushima To Sizu Aiba

To Akiko Nemoto

Can I sit here?

Please have some.

Will you listen to my story?

My company is sending me to a lower salary position.

I can't stand this high technology revolution.

I think it was all lies when people said...

"Working hard will guarantee your happiness."

Where do you work, anyway?

Listen to me while I'm talking!

More sake!

That TV is too loud! Keep it down!

Change the channel.

Nobody wants to see that show.

What have you done to my TV?

How could you do that?

That idiot!

Thank you for waiting.

I'll take 'em all.

You need to forget everything you saw today.

Understand?

April 7th, 1978. Toshio Aiwa, aged 26, was shot and killed by men from the Tsugawa Group on the streets of Hirao-cho, Taishoku.
