The Beatiful Horse Bandit

Come closer! Come closer!

Damn!

It's a shame I have to leave Shanghai!

Guise, you bastard...

You put me on this first-class ship just to get me out of your way, huh?

But you're not gonna have it your way!

Ah, no!

I'll return here no matter what! And then...

I'll get back with the Hong Hua Hui and swim in a pool of sweet money!

Huh!

It's all gone?

Hey!

We need more booze!

Over here!

Mr. Jean Carnet, I have a farewell gift from one of your friends in Shanghai.

Please enjoy this bottle of the ship's finest champagne.

Wonderful!

Oh, so cold!

Huh? What's wrong? What's wrong?

What's going on?

How is it?

It's really chilled, isn't it?

P-P-P-Pan Guang-Lin!

But these are lead bullets.

This is a parting gift from the Qing Bang.

Enjoy it while it's still chilled.

Why is this happening? Why is this happening?

Oh, Colonel.

So this is where you were.

Inspector Malraux.

What's the rush?

M-M-Master Sergeant Jean Carnet has been murdered!

On top of that, a bunch of armed Qing Bang members are gathering in Shanghai!

They intend to attack both the Hong Hua Hui, and us for supporting them!

Colonel, I request an immediate military response!

That's not possible.

They'll take out the Hong Hua Hui and the corrupt police all at once, which is exactly what I want.

N-no...!

Don't interfere!

Don't say anything to the Hong Hua Hui!

Yes...

Unless... you too are indebted to them,

Malraux?

No!

I swear it!

Actually... I'm really close to the Hong Hua Hui...

What should I do?

I finally did it!

Not even Yan Wang could have escaped from that explosion!

Both him and Ling-Wang are minced meat!

Now everyone who knew my secret is dead!

No matter how much I sweat, my hair never moves an inch!

Good hair!

I used to sneak into this bath so my wig wouldn't come off...

Now I can enter majestically!

Boss, we've reserved this bath for you.

So please enjoy it...

to your heart's content.

So, how's the water?

Shit! I shouldn't bend down!

If I pass 48 degrees...

It's so heavy I can't get out...!

Hey!

Boss Tian is swimming!

He's enjoying it!

You said it!

No, wait! He's drowning!

Heave-ho!

He's so heavy!

Idiots! Why didn't you help me!?

I was drowning!

S-sorry.

Never mind.

Call a masseur.

My shoulders got stiff.

Yes sir.

He doesn't have to wear such a heavy wig!

Thank you for waiting.

Oh, just do your work.

From my neck to my waist.

Yes.

Don't hold back.

Rub until your fingers break.

Yes, yes

Hey!

Are my shoulders disconnected?

Are my legs disconnected?

Hey! Hey, hey, hey, hey!

It's just what you ordered.

Didn't you say "Until my bones break"?

You misheard me!

Don't grab there!

Who do you think you are?

It's me, Kappa!

Y-Yan Wang?

You're still alive?

Yeah.

But Ling-Wang, Mang Kuang-Yun, died thanks to your grenades.

Wasn't he your ally?

There's a limit to ruthlessness.

Hey, you lazy bums! It's Yan Wang! Help me!

It's no use.

Your henchmen are waiting for you in Hell.

You're trembling?

Spare me...

Oh, sure.

I'm too compassionate to kill you while you're chilly.

I'll let you bathe for as long as you want.

You sure?

That's kind of you!

It's bath time!

Huh? My arms and legs won't move.

That means...

I'll have to do sit-ups!

It's really... too heavy...

Please.

Someone take it off!

Take this wig off!

Hey!

The Qing Bang are finally counterattacking!

I heard they killed Kappa Tian and that cop Jean Carnet.

That's not all.

I heard they assassinated...

most of the Hong Hua Huis' bosses!

So this is the end of the Hong Hua Hui...

Hey look at this!

It's almost like this whole newspaper's an obituary for the Hong Hua Hui!

No, no, no!

This is an announcement for the revival of the Qing Bang!

My brothers...

Today, the Qing Bang have been revived.

So I've prepared a special dish for you all.

Please, enjoy your meal.

Use this to re-hire your comrades.

If any of them are dead, arrange a funeral.

Boss!

Thank you so much! Thank you so much!

Wait one moment!

What's wrong, Brother Zhou?

Brother Pan, it seems like you made a mistake.

You put something weird in mine.

This must be a mistake.

No. That's there on purpose.

D-did he... did he figured it out?

Oh! I guess it's a wig!

It looks really heavy!

Tian's lackey spilled the beans.

Someone gave a list of Qing Bang names to the owner of that wig.

What a cruel bastard.

Well?

How does it look?

You can't hit me! You can't hit me!

No wigs for dead men.

Now, to the blood oath of the Qing Bang, and for Shanghai...

Cheers!

This is good wine!

Seriously!

This pays off for the time we spent underground!

Now we'll be able to walk freely around town!

Yeah!

We'll kill every last one of those Hong Hua Hui bastards!

Yeah!

So where's Kenshiro?

Well...

It looks like he went to town.

Kenshiro doesn't like gangsters.

But what's Ken gonna do from now on?

Now that he knows Yu-Ling is alive, is he gonna leave Shanghai again?

I won't let him go anywhere.

I must repay my debt to him.

How can I just forget about it?

E-excuse me.

This glass... Are you expecting company?

Just leave it there.

It's for a Peng-You I will never see again.

You idiot...

Kuang-Yun.

I guess I'll drink it for Ling-Wang.

It's that Taoist!

But...

I didn't even sense his presence!

I guess this geezer really is an illusion.

No.

Ling-Wang said he may be a god.

Why are you wavering, man of the Hokuto?

What happened to Ling-Wang was destined to happen.

Yes.

He lived his fate well.

That was good.

To show my thanks for the drink,

I'll show you something good.

Hokuto no Ken still has many secrets.

Even the essence of a simple finger thrust is nearly impossible to reach.

Therefore, you must meet many strong men on this continent.

Can you master, the greatest path?

Here, gramps.

Look closely.

Well, I guess I can't leave Shanghai just yet.

So this is where you've been?

Everyone was worried about you!

You just disappeared on us, Ken.

The Qing Bang have revived, the Hong Hua Hui are pacified. That's great news.

If only...

Yu-Ling were here.

Yeah.

Hey, Ken!

What do you think Yu-Ling is doing now?

She's like an angel.

Even though she's lost her memories, she's probably joined a convent or something.

Where's the woman chieftain?

And what's this?

I sent 5000 men in four battalions,

and you only captured ten?

After living in that tiny country...

you can't hope to conquer this continent!

Shut the hell up!

We need the woman chieftain!

We can't rest,

until we capture the woman chieftain who commands 1500 bandits!

Damn...

Just thinking of her gives me the shivers.

Whatever!

Commence execution!

Even if there are only ten of them, we must punish the bandits that defy our army!

But you know...

If you tell us where the woman chieftain is, we might let you go.

That's not gonna happen.

You can just chase that woman's ass until you die.

Ass?

Kill them all!

I won't let you do that!

W-w-what the hell?

The old man's right.

You can't capture me.

What?

Who are you?

Boss!

So YOU'RE the woman chieftain...

Li Xiu-Bao!

You're quite the lady.

Now there's an ass I wouldn't mind chasing.

Go chase a pig's ass in Hell.

You've got some guts,

seeing as you nonchalantly showed up in front of us all by yourself!

I'll turn you into a beehive!

That's my line.

What are you saying? Don't make me laugh!

Alright!

Fire!

H-huh? Hey!

What are you doing? Hurry up and fire!

Lieutenant, we...

We can't fire!

Are you retarded?

You're the one who's retarded.

Look around you.

You guys were the ones who nonchalantly showed up in front of us!

She's right...

Should we still fire?

D-d-d-Don't! Don't fire!

Boss...

Boss...

Boss...

Come now.

Ride behind me.

To think you'd do something so dangerous for a burden like me...

It was nothing.

I thank you.

I can't thank you enough.

This is all thanks to Ling-Wang.

That's right That day was a lot like today.

I had been sent to the plains as a spy to scout out the army that invaded our territory.

But I got surrounded by a pack of wolves and couldn't move.

I could do nothing but only prepare for my death.

Just when I thought it was over...

W-who are you?

That light...

Could you be Ling-Wang...

Mang Kuang-Yun?

Hokuto Sonkaken: Soukijutsu! Soukijutsu = Ki Mastery

How splendid!

Old man...

Y-yes?

Old man...

Old man, are you one of the bandits that oppose the invading army?

Yes.

Then we both have the same goal.

And I have a request for you.

So... now we part ways, Yu-Ling.

No. I'm fine.

What's important is that you look after this woman.

This is the woman I loved

Yes.

Even though I captured this woman as compensation for death...

My love for her was real

This woman is...

my one and only...

So I must not hold on to her any longer!

And I must fight...

Yan Wang!

I pray..

that fate will be kind to you.

She is truly our savior.

Has it been two years now

since Ling-Wang brought us that woman?

It has.

Lampa Wang, did you call me? Lampa = Great Master

Xiu Bao, it seems you put on quite a show for the enemy.

I could not run away leaving my comrades behind.

That's very like you.

But don't push yourself too far.

No.

You saved me, an amnesiac young girl,

and taught me how to live on the plain.

Thus, I will protect these men with my life.

I'm returning the favor, Lampa.

Come to my side,

Xiu-Bao.

I can no longer see your face.

Nor can I see our future.

Lampa Wang...

Listen well.

The enemy grows stronger every day.

That's right. They're desperate too.

It will be difficult to keep chasing them away.

From now on I will trust this army to you.

But there is a painful unavoidable fate beyond that.

An unavoidable fate?

That's right.

And if this fate turns against you, there is a man you can turn to.

Who is he?

His name is Kitaoji.

Kitaoji?

Is he Japanese?

Indeed.

But Kitaoji is Japanese, yet he is not Japanese.

He and I have the same dream.

The same dream?

Indeed.

A dream of Shangri-La. Shangri-La = Paradise

Shangri-La...

Kitaoji...

and the Japanese.

I wonder why...

I can feel something?

Kitaoji...

No, that's not it.

There's another Japanese...

No matter how far away we are

we all live under the same sky.

The blue sky shines, and our fates intertwine.

Now, fates that meet under the stars of Hokuto,

heads or tails?
