SIGNAL OF RESURRECTION

K-Kenshiro...

and Ye...

I never thought I'd see you again.

Boss Pan!

What's a handsome man like you doing in those bandages?

W-well...

What's wrong? It's been a long time...

Let me see your face.

Y-you're...!

Those burns...!

The Hong-Hua-Hui did this to me.

But I'm glad to still be alive.

All of our other friends were killed in the Qing Bang hunts.

S-sorry...

I didn't know.

But I'm through too.

I'm gonna die from the rot on my legs.

What're you saying?

You promised, didn't you?

That half of Shanghai would be mine.

You have to live, and become the ruler of Shanghai once more!

Yeah, Boss Pan!

Please live!

For the sake of our Qing Bang brothers, please!

Ye...

Pan.

If I'm to fulfill my promise to my Peng-You...

I can't let you die.

You're gonna do it?

So that you can live.

With this...

you won't bleed or feel pain for a while.

D-don't tell me...!?

You're gonna cut off Boss Pan's legs!?

You're alright with this, Pan?

Y-yeah...

K-Kenshiro...!

You said I won't feel pain...!?

It hurts like hell!

It's only going to get worse.

No whining now!

Let me pass out for a while.

While I'm out...

I'll go talk to the Gods of Death.

Ken, is Boss Pan...?

Even the Gods of Death will run from him in fear.

Let's go home. Our Qing Bang Peng You are waiting for us.

He appears to have completed his mission without incident.

I see.

It seems that your Pan Guang-Lin has been rescued by Kenshiro.

Really!?

The soldiers shouldn't be able to find us here.

Seriously, Wu Dong-Lai is crazy!

I never expected he'd make me help him abduct Mei-Yu.

By the way...

While you're at it, if you could take care of Colonel Guise...

I'll be able to have dealings with the Hong-Hua-Hui without worrying...

I wonder if everything will really go your way so easily?

Ah...

I suppose not...

Enough. Go!

O-okay, okay.

Now then...

Man, it's cold.

Can we change shifts already?

Hey, wasn't the chick with the Colonel that actress?

She's pretty famous...

Yeah, I think so.

Kenshiro did well.

With his superhuman sense of smell...

I realized that he would be able to find Pan's location by getting close to Wu Dong-Lai or Ling-Wang.

It was just as I expected.

Wait a minute.

I'm grateful to you for rescuing Pan.

But there's something strange about this...

Strange?

Yes.

If something had gone wrong...

Pan would have been killed by Wu Dong-Lai.

Colonel...

You're the one who thought up tonight's trap, aren't you!? Why!?

Alright, I'll tell you.

My objective is...

The resurrection of the Qing Bang!

Well? Not a bad idea, don't you think?

If the Tiger of Shanghai, Pan Guang-Lin, and I join forces...

This City of demons will fall into our hands in one night.

You're...!

So the one who revealed Pan's location to Yan-Wang... was me!?

You caught me in a trap!

It seems that a mad dog has wandered in.

Eh?

What do you mean?

This dog has superhuman hearing.

And he's angry at having been used.

Aren't you?

Come out of hiding!

Ling-Wang... Mang Kuang-Yun!

Y-you're...!

Guise!

In order to rescue Pan...

you used not only Wu, but me as well!?

No less from the man who can hear a whisper at a hundred meters.

But hearing too much isn't good for your lifespan.

Shut up!

I'll finish you once and for all.

Can you?

What's going on?

These two...

It's like they know each other.

Why!?

You're going to fight me with that thing?

Oh well...

I surrender.

Nonsense!

Take your stance, man of Hokuto!

You've learned it too...

Hokuto Sonkaken!

C-Colonel Guise is a student of Hokuto!?

Colonel...

Who are you...?

Come!

I'll test how far your Sonkaken has come.

I said, I surrender.

I give up already.

What do you think Sonkaken is for!?

Well...

self defense, right?

What!?

Take that broken right arm for example...

You martial artists use your bodies as weapons and suffer injuries as a result.

That's utter foolishness.

However...

I acknowledge your superhuman strength.

Which is why I control you.

Using this, of course.

You praise us and insult us in the same breath.

You disgust me!

I'll kill you!

You...!

Let's see what happens when someone who's studied Sonkaken uses a gun.

I'll put these bullets right through your forehead.

Why doesn't he shoot right away?

So that's your power?

Try to shoot me!

Fool.

Hokuto Sonkaken, Secret Technique.

Ki Mastery!

Well done!

But you were unable to pierce my forehead.

Using ki, one is able to control objects at will.

This is the essence of Sonkaken.

Now it's my turn.

Those who have mastered Sonkaken are truly terrifying!

Try this!

You had better flee.

Armed soldiers are coming.

Tell this to Yan Wang.

I am the one who killed Yu-Ling.

He can come find me whenever he wants revenge.

Color is returning to his face.

He'll be fine now.

Thank God.

So...

what'll you do now, Ken?

Ye...

You make contact with the Qing Bang members who've gone underground.

I... won't forgive the man who killed Yu-Ling!

Ling-Wang...

With this...

I'll be able to fight without reservations.

But...

How will you find Ling-Wang?

I have ways.

Just like with Wu Dong-Lai.

Just watch.

He'll come to me.

I still... have questions for Ling-Wang.

First Huang, now Wu has been killed by Yan Wang.

Seriously... Just what is Ling-Wang doing!?

At this rate, we'll be...

So I have a request for you.

Just in case... there's someone I want you to find.

You can't mean...

Yeah.

Boss Tai-Yan.

Okay, but... we should get Brother Tian's opinion too...

Don't you hear something?

W-what the...!?

Ahh!

Whoa...

Whoa!

What's that noise?

I'll take a look.

Oh yeah.

You probably all know this already.

When Brother Tian comes...

Make sure you don't mention his head.

Of course we won't say anything about how he looks like a kappa. Kappa = A bald scaly skinned legendary creature found in Japanese folklore

Seriously...

How many people have been sent to Hell just for calling him Kappa Tian?

Tian!

Sorry for the hold up.

You've got some holes in your wall.

You'd better fix 'em.

His head...! His head...!

I-I-I-It's steel!?

And it's fastened with bolts!

Is he serious?

They're all stunned by my manliness.

I knew this steel would do the trick.

Now I don't need to worry about strong winds or rain.

No one will ever say anything about my head again.

Oh?

Nice vase!

Yeah, isn't it?

It was tough to get.

It's a treasure from the Forbidden City.

Well?

I bet you're trembling with awe.

Can't... hold it... head... too heavy!

T-T-T-T-the vase!

Hey brother, you alright?

No injuries? Kega = injury

No hair? Ke = Hair

I've got hair right here...!

Y-you alright, brother? Y-you alright, brother?

Any injuries? Any injuries?

Shut up!

Take a look at this!

What's this!? What's this!?

Who was it!?

Who wrote this trash!?

What!?

Ling-Wang's dead!?

The funeral will be held at the Great New World.

The funeral is being officiated by Pan Guang-Lin!?

Squeak squeak!

I haven't heard anything about it!

Why do I, the new manager of the Great New World,

have to hold a funeral for Ling-Wang!?

But... look at that...

Squeak squeak squeak...

Squeak squeak squeak squeak?

What's with the guy in bandages?

How can he walk around like that?

Hey! Where are you going!?

Listen.

It's said that back when Qing Bang ruled Shanghai...

a hundred thousand men marched under their banner.

When they see this article...

the members who've hidden until now...

will reveal themselves in order to resurrect Qing Bang.

Their numbers will be terrifying.

Which means.

You got it.

Now that Pan has been rescued...

They'll come for revenge.

An all-out war will start!

Squeak...

There were this many Qing Bang?

It's been a while...

Zhu the Rat.

Squeak... Those bandages... Ye?

No sign of respect?

You've come up in the world, I see?

So this is your doing?

Bringing such a morbid thing...

What nonsense!

This is a place for gentlemen to enjoy themselves.

Even if the Qing Bang get together, they're still worthless.

Here's some allowance.

Get out of my sight.

You damn rat!

I wonder what Boss Pan thinks of what you just said.

Huh?

Pan's dead!

Where could he be listening from!?

Right here.

Open it.

Squeak!

Boss Pan!

No way...

You should be dead.

Boss Pan...

Oh, he is dead!

Don't scare me like that...!

I don't remember leaving the Great New World to a dirty rat!

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Boss! Boss Pan!

Boss, welcome back!

I see.

It's Pan's job to rebuild the Qing Bang

The only thing you're after is me.

That's why you put my death in the paper...

and told the writer your location.

You knew that when I saw an article about my death...

I would go find the guy who wrote it.

You used the paper as your messenger service.

I heard that you were better.

It's your requiem.

It'll do.

I see.

Then let's get started.

Before we fight...

No...

Before I kill you, there's something I want to know.

This is a war between gangsters.

So why did you have to kill Yu-Ling?

She was no part of this!

That's why you called me here!?

Alright, I'll tell you!

Yu-Ling... betrayed me!

And she even... fell in love with you, a Japanese!

Is that true!?

Yes.

Yu-Ling was... Ling-Wang's fiance.

N-no way!

Well... It's not that uncommon.

Do you remember...

back when the last Qing Bang boss was assassinated?

Y-yeah.

That was Ling-Wang's doing.

And the one who ordered the assassination was...

our foster father, Weng.

What!?

It's the greatest betrayal...

to assassinate your boss, failure was not an option.

Weng was desperate.

Sometimes, a beautiful daughter can be the strongest weapon.

He used Yu-Ling as collateral... to hire the ultimate assassin.

However...

After Ling-Wang carried out the assassination...

he saw that Yu-Ling was in love with Kenshiro.

I couldn't forgive her!

How dare she love a Japanese whose race has pillaged our country!?

She deserved to die!

I thought so...

You're just a mad dog.

If you can kill a woman for such a stupid reason...

You don't deserve to be loved!

That woman is mine!

I'll do with her as I please!

There's no point in just swinging that thing around.

The fist of a mad dog... is useless against me.

I wonder.

I'll show you... just why I'm called a mad dog.

His skull has changed shape!

Insanity is the ultimate fighting spirit!

By controlling the flow of energy through my body...

I bring my insanity to its full potential!

Hokuto Sonkaken!

Kyoushinkon! Soul of Madness
