A Burning Confrontation

Would you like some pears?

They're tasty!

The three servings of noodles are ready!

One Shang Tang! Shang Tang = Top-grade Chinese soup

Okay, drop off the goods over there. Yeah, right there.

Shanghai... has gone back to the way it was.

It's all thanks to Yu-Ling...

Or should I say... Li Xiu-Bao.

Yeah, Monsieur Kitaoji is relieved as well.

It's amazing how just one word from Li Xiu-Bao,

could send all those bandits back to the plains.

I never expected it to end this way...

It hasn't.

The biggest issue still hasn't been resolved yet.

Namely, the one between Kenshiro and Yu-Ling.

That taste...

and...

Let's see...

Found it! This is it.

My eyesight has been failing me lately.

You're a translator.

Just translate what needs to be said, nothing else.

You're right. Excuse me.

Very well, here it is.

General Okawa from the army's headquarters,

will soon be visiting Shanghai to negotiate the terms of surrender.

I understand.

In that case, I won't need a translator until then.

Actually, you're in a rather dangerous position.

If I'm around, it'll be a lot...

What are you talking about?

Are you saying that we're not dependable?

Uh... No, of course not!

Come to think of it, when we last saw you, you told that Hong Hua Hui guy "Let's take it outside" and left.

How did that go? Eh?

Don't tell me you're a martial artist now!?

Well not exactly...

I'm a martial artist, too!

Hey, u-um...

I have no intention of fighting you here.

You dare speak to me with such self-confidence!?

Come on, let's go!

W-what? Uh, what's with you? What's with you? What's...

Y-you bastard...!

Stop this at once.

This man was once a University professor.

He doesn't live in the same world that we do.

B-but...

Thank you.

Now,

I'm grateful for your concern...

but I have these.

I don't need your concern.

Excuse me, Kenshi... I mean, Kenzaki.

Mr. Kitaoji would like to see you.

Yes.

Pardon me.

I don't like that guy.

Huh? My nose is bleeding... Why?

You fell in love with an extraordinary woman.

Most men wouldn't keep up with her.

It's just a coincidence, that I fell in love with a woman like her.

Only you could put it like that.

Well, you may be right.

So, what's the situation?

Actually another problem just came up.

What's that then?

The army's secret agency just informed me...

that a secret weapon was stolen.

The culprits are the Hong Hua Hui...

Zhang Tai-Yan.

There goes another one. What a waste.

W-what a great Ruyi Bang! Ruyi Bang = A retractable stick weapon wielded by the Monkey King Sun Wukong in Journey to the West.

You still didn't bring me Li Xiu-Bao?

Listen.

No matter how many women I screw, I still can't get Xiu-Bao's face out of my head.

No matter how many times I rape her in my mind, it still doesn't help.

Hurry... Hurry up and bring her to me!

Well, about that..

Apparently, Xiu-Bao hired a Japanese translator.

This is the first I've heard about it!

Well you see...

It seems that the translator...

is Yan Wang

So no matter what we do...

we just can't get Li Xiu-Bao to come with us.

Whaaat!?

Son of a bitch!

What am I gonna do if Kenshiro rides her before I do?

Please, give me a break!

If it's come to this, I can't slack off.

I'll deal with this at once!

Look, isn't it amazing?

I-it just looks like grain to me.

It's just a bottle...

Now don't be shocked.

But this grain is mixed with...

plague infested fleas!

Plague infested fleas?

These little buggers are full of plague infected rat blood.

If they bite someone...

that person will be infected with the plague!

Well? Scared yet?

Once infected, a person wouldn't be able to live more than three or four days.

What's more, a contaminated area would need to be quarantined and then incinerated.

These guys are deadly!

S-so, what are we gonna do with them?

The enemy was researching an invisible weapon. There's your hint!

In other words...

were going to scatter this inside the Qing Bang's opium warehouses!

Then, those warehouses will be quarantined, and there goes the opium.

Then the Qing Bang will be out of business!

After all, they're gangsters. They need to make money to survive.

When the money goes, loyalty will go with it.

They'll be destroyed from within!

Exactly.

I want Xiu-Bao in my arms as soon as possible.

I can't afford to have a drawn out war with the Qing Bang.

We're going to crush them at once!

Y-yes!

So, how are we going to scatter these things in the Qing Bang's warehouses?

That won't be a problem.

W...

What is that?

He'll make sure the Qing Bang are done for!

Come in.

I'b cobig in.

Where's Kenzaki?

Well, I dink...

I dink he wend home.

Is that so?

I've got a letter I want him to translate.

I treatened him so wuch he got scared abd rad away!

Wasn't it... the other way around?

Stop trying to hide your nose. I already know.

In any case,

we don't need to be cautious about him.

But you know...

When he stared at me earlier, I felt like...

His eyes are those of a man who has looked into the depths of Hell.

However, his eyes would somehow soften up...

only when he looked into your eyes.

That's true.

But...

For some reason, when I looked into his eyes...

I felt warm.

It's strange

It was as if... Kenzaki...

wanted to tell me something important.

Come out, come out, little mole!

Digging is so fun!

It's gotta be around here somewhere.

Out we go!

There's no place... that Pu the Mole can't dig into!

They'll never think of someone coming through the ground!

Naturally,

I can never be found!

Who's there?

I-I got found...

Don't shout at me from behind like that!

I got really scared!

What a rude bastard.

My little heart's still beating, dammit. I can't take it anymore.

This is great! It's a treasure mount!

Is all this going to be destroyed?

It's such a waste.

Yeah, it's such a waste! I'll just take a few!

I got some opium!

I'm rich now! I can do whatever I want!

After all, no one's looking!

So you're an opium thief now, Pu the Mole?

I got found!

Someone's there? Why is someone there?

I can't take it anymore!

Quit shouting at me from behind...!

Huh? No one's there.

Where is he?

You surprised me again!

My arms!

Who the hell are you?

You're awfully big for a mole.

Yan Wang!

What are you doing here!?

The army informed us that their plague infested fleas were stolen,

and that there was a big hole nearby.

And I smelled your mole stench...

from the moment you entered Shanghai.

Damn, I was being followed...?

Don't! Don't do that! Stop it!

Just stay still.

Stop! Stop! Stop! Please stop!

Found it.

Are these the plague infested fleas?

M-Mr. Kenshiro, please be careful.

We don't have the vaccine if we get infected!

T-that's right! Give it! Give it back!

Yeah, OK.

That's...

W-wait! Wait! Wait! What are you doing?

Did you drink the vaccine?

Of course I haven't

That's too bad.

Wait...

M-M-Mr. Kenshiro... y-you can't be...

Stop it!!!

Stop it!!!

You can't be...

No! No! No! No! No! No...!

Here, swallow it. Swallow it all.

Oh? Is it hard to swallow?

Well, I'll make it easier for you.

I-I swallowed it...

What should I do? I'm done for...

I can't dig holes anymore!

Don't be so sad.

They're moving! My arms are moving!

You can use your arms now.

You better hurry up and get the vaccine.

Thank you! Thank you very much!

You ran quite far away, Mr. Kumazasa.

What do you hope to achieve by letting him go?

Well there's only one thing we have to do.

We have to exterminate someone worse than the plague...

Zhang Tai-Yan.

I don't have time...

to be digging tunnels!

I have to take the vaccine before the plague attacks!

Run! Run! Run, Pu the Mole!

Run! Run faster!

What a moron.

Mr. Kenshiro...

Why do we have to follow him like this?

Couldn't you have just used...

Hokuto Shinken's pressure points technique to make him confess Tai-Yan's secret location?

No.

The Hokuto school...

can manipulate pressure points with a secret technique known as Hiraikou.

If I struck the pressure point for confession, he would've died.

That so?

Tai-Yan is a cautious man.

We finally got a lead.

Let's proceed cautiously.

You made him swallow the whole bottle of plague infested fleas.

You call that cautious?

He won't get sick today.

Got a problem with that?

Squeeze!

Squeeze!

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze and squeeze!

I want to get outta here!

I'm really happy.

We'll be able to go outside soon!

Yum, yum!

And this country will once again belong to the Hong Hua Hui!

As expected of Boss Tai-Yan.

To think he could crush the Qing Bang with those tiny fleas.

Well if it's to get laid with Xiu-Bao, my brain will go in overdrive.

Now, let's celebrate the upcoming rebirth of the Hong Hua Hui!

W-what?

What's that sound?

What's going on?

Who's making that noise?

Boss,

Pu the Mole wishes to meet with you at once.

So he's finally back.

Alright, let him in.

Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

I need to see the boss!

Hey!

You're gonna sink the ship!

Just come on inside!

Boss Tai-Yan will meet with you.

I'm finally safe...

Well, hurry up!

Yes!

I see.

By using that ship as their hiding place,

they can move about when and where we least expect it.

But if discovered, it becomes nothing more than a crappy ship.

Well, you don't have to tag along anymore.

What about you, Kenshiro?

Against an insect like Tai-Yan,

vaccines aren't necessary.

He'll be burned with the plague.

Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!

Still not here? Still not here? Hurry! Hurry!

Hurry up and give it to me...

Hey, Pu the Mole.

How was the mission?

Did it go well, yum yum?

W-well you see...

Let me guess... Someone's already been infected by the plague?

Well...

Yeah, that's true.

Oh? Where is he?

R-right... Right here!

Here?

Like I said, here! Right here!

I ate the whole bottle...

and they're all in my stomach!

The whole bottle?

So...

You didn't scatter the fleas...?

Not a single one!

I don't think I've got any symptoms yet...

My back's gonna give...

Well?

Who made you eat it?

Y-Yan Wang!

I was going to scatter the plague!

I didn't even think about stealing the opium...

But they found me at the warehouse...

I tried to resist, you know.

But he did some dirty trick and put the bottle in my mouth...

Um, what did you just do?

It doesn't matter. Get lost.

Don't worry, boss!

I didn't tell Yan Wang anything!

I wasn't followed either! I checked!

I'm sure of this! The vaccinel Give me the vaccine!

I know you didn't tell him anything.

I'd already set the Hiraikou technique on you.

Hiraikou?

That can't be...

Yeah. Yan Wang could easily make him talk.

But...

if he had pressed his pressure point to make him talk...

W-w-w-w-what would happen?

I just pressed them.

Get lost, you cretin!

W-W-why's... y-your face like a grandpa?

Grandpa?

We're done for!

The plague...

W-we've got to get outta here, Boss Tai-Yan.

If we don't, we'll catch the plague!

Boss...

Who cares? Let's all catch the plague!

But before that happens, Yan Wang is coming here...

And he's gonna kill us all.

Let's finish this, Yan Wang!

Or should I say... Successor of Hokuto Shinken,

Kasumi Kenshiro!
