I found it! It's a pistol!

Don't just look down. Try looking up.

I got it! It's a pistol.

Momma, I got a pistol.

A pistol! How lucky!

Look what I got.

My goodness! Panties!

Is it for a child?

No way! It's definitley made for an adult.

How about letting Mom have this?

It sure would make Daddy happy.

No! I found it! It's mine!

What are you going to do with something like that?

I'll take it with me when I get married.

Smart girl!

Emi, just make sure you don't marry a yakuza.

Never!

You got me.

Get your hands up!

Okay, kids, let's go upstairs and play.

Come on, hurry.

Yoshie, will you keep the noise down?

Sister's not too crazy about little kids.

Yes.

Miss, would you like more coffee?

Couldn't you get better things for the treasure hunt than pistols and panties?

I discussed it with Nobu and Sada.

Don't you like it?

I guess it's okay.

Sis...

What's going to happen to us if they ever finish the new airport?

What does it matter if it's ever finished?

Things are already in a state of utter confusion right now.

The price of land keeps climbing...

...and all kinds of strange people are just hanging around here.

That's right. We have to plan our strategy now.

We have nothing to worry about.

The Shigemune family has been around for 100 years.

They won't let anything scare them off.

Right, Sis?

That's true.

Enjoy yourselves today.

Tomorrow it'll be back to business as usual.

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, but this area is reserved for the Shigemune Group.

Could you please me?

Reserved? - Excuse us. Sorry.

Everyone out.

Sorry.

Thank you.

Sada, hurry up.They'll be here soon.

Didn't I tell you we should have done this in the morning?

Idiot! If we did that, the clams would all run away.

The clams'll run away?

Look here, clams are living creatures, too.

What living creatures wants to be caught and killed?

Use your head!

Okay, okay. Shut up already.

Hey! They're here. Hurry it up, will you!

Welcome!

Shall we join them?

Hey you! Who told you to tear down this building?

Get down here!

Help me!

Are you okay, old lady?

I was so scared.

I thought it was an earthquake.

Are you trying to kill this innocent old lady?

I'm just doing what I was told!

Who asked you to do this!

Someone from that group!

Come here.

What's this?

'New Airport Urban Development Corporation'? Who the hell is that?

My company got a call first thing this morning.

Don't you know that the Shigemune Group...

...was negotiating the eviction on this property?

I didn't know.

Shut up!

They've been threatening the property owners, flashing wads of money...

...and buying up property at random.

The real estate people don't know who they are.

I called the number at that Wakayama address...

...but no one answers, Sis.

This isn't just land speculators we're dealing with here.

It looks like someone's trying to take over our turf.

The first thing we have to do is figure out who these people are.

Send someone to keep an eye on that office...

...and take pictures of anyone coming or going from there.

Anyone here own a camera?

I got one.

Not one of those disposable cameras.

We need one that has a telephoto lens.

I'll find one.

Komatsu, have you heard from my husband yet?

Not yet.

Wasn't it the day before yesterday that you took him to Moriguchi?

Yes. I was waiting for him, but he told me to go ahead.

So, you left him? - Yes.

Why didn't you stick with him until the end?

But he was with another...

Forget it.

He'll come home when his pockets are empty.

Makimura, be careful when you're making the rounds at night.

There're a lot of outsiders drifting in.

Be sure you don't make any mistakes with the shops who joined our group.

Yes.

You all got that?

Yes.

You idiot!

I'm sorry.

Predecessors and ancestors...

...thanks to your help, we've made it safely through another day.

Your successor is as happy-go-lucky as ever...

...but please keep an eye on him.

Wakayama City

Nobody's coming in or out.

What's going on anyway?

Jiro, go and buy us some sodas.

What are you doing?

No, Bro. Take a look at that, will you!

Where?

The top floor of that building...you see the sign that says ''Photography Studio''?

It's the window on the right side of that.

Little more...that's it. Okay now all the way up...

Stop... Just hold it there... Hold that pose.

Good. Here we go. Up...

Raise your chin up higher.

Now close your eyes.

Bro...

Hey, Bro, that's not what we're supposed to be taking pictures of.

Keep your mouth shut, you fool!

We're going to blow up these pictures and sell them...

...to raise funds for our group.

Bro... What do you think you're doing?

Okay, that's it.

Thanks.

You're getting used to it, aren't you?

I'm still nervous.

My whole body's shaking.

Are you free today?

I promised Mayu I'd take her to Misaki Park.

You don't have to glare at me.

Don't worry. I won't try to steal her away from you.

Yes, we're open as usual.

Please feel free to come down.

You don't have to worry about the police here.

Yes, we'll be waiting for you. - It's mostly straight players.

The top players are mostly in your class.

All right...We'll be expecting you.

We haven't had a good response laetly.

Could it be because the riot police's around for the new airport construction?

Let's just make sure the people who do come enjoy themselves.

Yes.

This is Shigemune.

Central Hospital?

What?

The Boss's seriously injured?

He was shot?

Hello. This is his wife.

Yes...

And...?

All right. I'll be right there.

Sis...

The bullet is still lodged inside, but it's not fatal.

He just got into the operation room.

Get the car. - I'll go to the hospital alone.

Tamura... - Yes.

Get everybody together.

Make sure no one makes a move until I give the order.

You can't see him yet.

Who shot my husband?

That's what I'd like to know.

It seems he came to the hospital on his own.

On his own?

Your old man's not the kind to make enemies.

Do you have any ideas?

I hear you've been dabbling in land speculation lately.

I have to make a phone call.

Don't sir up any trouble.

Don't do anything to make me look bad when I'm this close to retiring.

Hey, you... Did you see a fight here around noon today?

We didn't see any fight. Did we?

Didn't you hear any gunshots?

Didn't hear a thing, did we?

Let's go.

Excuse me. - Who are you?

What you want?

Who are you?

Shut up!

Stop!

What're you doing with my wallet?

Search him.

Hey!

Wrong one.

What's with those guys?

I thought so. This company is a dummy.

It's nominal with just address listed.

There's a mastermind.

Bastards!

Mom, I want to pee.

We're almost home. Hold on.

I can't.

What am I supposed to do?

Don't forget to apologize to the god of the land.

Don't kill yourself!

No! No!

Stop it!

Let me go! - Don't!

Let me go!

Is he dead?

Silly!

He's our boss. It'll take more than that to kill him.

But, hasn't he put his wife through an awful lot with his evil ways?

I heard their house and lot has been mortgaged.

He's such a klutz when it comes to gambling.

But, I heard he's very good at other things.

Did he try to seduce you?

Welcome.

Yuka, get me a cold beer.

Beer, please.

Is it okay?

Go ahead. Let him drink.

Bro, we really messed up.

We followed these two suspicious-looking guys...

...right to the 4th precinct police headquarters.

What a screw up.

There are a lot of extreme radicals opposing the construction of the new airport...

...so they're real touchy.

They did a body search on us and they scolded us.

Did they mistake you for college students?

Do we look that dumb?

Don't worry you wouldn't pass for college students.

What a noisy bunch.

Who are they?

I think they're real estate people from Wakayama.

Really?

Excuse me a minute.

What is it?

I'm Makimura from the Shigemune Group.

I need to ask you a few questions about some land you bought.

Can you come with me to our office?

It's late. Maybe next time.

Now!

Bro...

Bro...

Bro!

Bro... Bro!

Mayu, you take a shower first.

Yes.

Mom, what's a murder case?

A murder is a murder.

You leave that to the police.

I know what it is. It's when you kill someone with a gun.

I always see it on the television.

Hurry, and get in.

Oh, you're up, already?

You can change into this although it's mine. Here you go.

I haven't asked you what your name was.

I'm Asami Enoki. What's your name?

I killed someone.

I shot someone...with a gun.

Are you still half asleep?

You must have heard Mayu and me talking.

We weren't talking about you.

Hey, you... What's the matter?

Daddy, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Daddy.

What's going on?

Sis...

Please...

I want you to avenge his death.

Sis...

Do you know who did this?

I found out who shot your old man.

The culprit surrendered at our Kaizuka Station.

Who did it?

A woman...

A young woman.

A woman?

Oh, it's you.

Honey, is it true that a woman shot you?

How did you find out?

Don't tell me Etsuko... - Don't give me that!

Ouch! It hurts when you shake me like that.

Yuki, why are you dressed like that?

I'm not ready to be buried yet.

I don't believe this.

We all thought someone was trying to take over our turf.

Makimura was killed, Honey.

Makimura was?

Really?

It's splashed all over the papers...

...about the gangsters fighting over the airport.

This means war.

Get the men together, and guns, too.

Who are you going to fight?

It's got to be Bantai!

You know that the young leader of that group has...

...been trying to take over our turf from before!

Yuki...

Are you just going to sit still after they killed Makimura!

Honey, they've got 1 5,000 men...

...and we've got 50 at the most.

They've got everything from machine guns to hand grenades.

All we have are a few .45 caliber pistols.

Just gather some supporters, idiot!

Who could we call?

What about the Moriguchi brothers?

We also have people in Kyoto, Nara and Okayama who can help us.

Just think about, honey.

If anyone finds out you were shot by a young woman--your mistress...

...who's going to help us? We'll just be the laughingstock of Japan.

All you have to do is keep it out of the papers.

And how are we supposed to do that!?

I won't forgive you if you fool with some other guy while I'm away.

Even if I have to come back from the dead, I'll tear you limb from limb.

Honey, this is the first time it's been like this.

It's so exciting.

So good...

Soon, we won't be able to do such a good thing like this.

The suspect in the shooting of the head of Shigemune Group Tsumura...

...Etsuko stood by as police fished out the gun...

...that supposedly was used in the shooting.

The police said that the suspect might have premeditated the shooting...

...and they are investigating the case accordingly.

In a related incident...

...a man who may be responsible in the shooting death of a Shigemune member...

...on the 6th in Gokurakuyokocho, Konan City...

...turned himself in at the Wakayama Prefectual Police Headquarters this evening.

The suspect Toru Tabata, 26 years old.

He's a member of the Kawato Gang in Omori, Wakayama City.

Kids aren't supposed to be interested in murders.

Watch the cartoon.

This is more interesting.

That's ridiculous.

What a terrible thing to happen.

How is Mr. Shinemune?

Much better, thank you.

Everyone in our group is talking about your husband...

...saying what a blessing for a man to be shot by a young woman.

Wouldn't all you young men want to be blessed like that?

Mr. Iwaki...

Why did you call me over here today?

I realize how hard it must be for you...

...so I'm offering you a helping hand.

How about this plan, Missus?

How would you like to sell me...

...the Shigemune Group's house, lot and symbol for 300 million yen?

I'm not sure I know what you're talking about.

I'm offering you 300 million for the Shigemune Group.

Don't look so surprised.

I think modern-day yakuza are like business enterprises.

...it's no surprise for us to buy and sell our territorial rights like company stocks.

I have to say...

...neither my husband nor I have any intention of selling the Shigemune Group.

What I'm more interested in is your opinion about...

...the incident involving your man here, Mr. Kawato, the other day.

That's already been settled. Right? - Yes.

The young punk who did it turned himslef in.

Mr. Kawato...

About the elaborate airport development company scheme...

...aren't you the mastermind behind it?

What about that?

I'd like to settle this territorial dispute.

What?

Missus...

...since construction of the airport was decided, Konan's been in attention.

I don't think the Shigemune can handle it all alone.

Well... Thank you for your concern...

...but we have capable, young men working for us.

There's no need for your pride to get in your way.

Why get stuck with a good-for-nothing husband and be in debt the rest of your life?

Before you and your husband commit double suicide...

...it's better make things easier for you with 300 million yen.

Just for your information...

...I hold all the notes on the debts your husband's been creating all over town.

That alone comes to more than 200 million yen.

Forget your pride.

Talk it over with your husband...

...and give us an answer soon.

300 million yen?

Iwaki is ready to offer a big money.

Doesn't it bother you?

What?

Being called good-for-nothing...

Can it be helped. He's half right.

If I were a man, I'd take a knife and stab him.

Shall we sell? - Honey... !

I never wanted to take over the organization. - You're a man.

Don't you have any pride?

If it's against Iwaki...

...it doesn't matter how much pride you have.

And besides if we had that much money, we could hire a good lawyer for Estuko.

You idiot.

What I mean is that Etsuko's protecting me by saying that gun is hers.

But that's my gun.

That's the gun I always carried to protect myself.

Tell that to the police, and you'll be in prison, too.

What else can I do?

I'm a man.

I can't let a woman to take the blame for me.

Oh, so now you're a man!

The poor girl doesn't have any relatives.

You care about that woman that much!

Watch out!

Peel the apple, not my nose.

Now you've shown me your true colors.

I've made up my mind.

I'm disbanding the Shigemune Group. But, whatever's left...

...of the 300 mil after I pay off all of your debts will go to our boys and me.

You're not getting one red cent.

All right?

Come back here, Yuki.

Tokushima City

Beer! Beer!

Get us some beer!

Five bottles of beer.

Beer, right?

Hurry!

And a lot of wet towels.

Nice-looking lady!

Who is that?

She's like my daughter.

Does that mean she was in the same business as you?

She sure is sexy.

I was just as sexy in my day.

I hear you're still getting a lot of action.

Of course.

The only time I'll have no use for a man is when I'm dead.

Fill 'er up.

Sis... Here take some of mine.

Please...go on...

Please...drink up.

Let her be.

Two pairs of queens.

How about yours?

King?

Mine is one step down, again.

It's not my night.

Not mine either. It's not good.

Raise you 50,000.

I'm out.

Are you up?

I'll match your 50,000.

How are you feeling, Yuki?

I'm fine.

Sorry about that.

I didn't even realize...

You were sleeping really well.

Oh, Yuki... Let me introduce you.

This is Ryoji Kimoto.

You remember the Osaka battle...

...between the Bandai Group and the Horyu organization, right?

This is the man who shot one of Horyu's directors in the Kobe nightclub.

He just got out a month ago.

She used to be a geisha when she was young.

She once worked in this area.

I explained about your current situation while you were asleep.

Well, moderately, though.

That's all embarrassing.

Please pretend you didn't hear that.

Shall we take a break?

What are you saying? Our main business is lending money.

How can you rest when we're this deep in the hole?

Want to join us?

You'd better not.

He'll have you down to nothing before you know what happened.

I'm getting it all back.

Stop playing.

Get on with it.

I'll see your 100,000, and raise you 200,000.

300,000...

500,000...

I can't do that. I'm out.

500,000...

Wow!

200,000...

200,000...

And raise you 1 million.

I call.

Did it! Straight flush!

Madam, I had fun in Tokushima.

I don't think I'll see you again.

Take care.

You, too.

Where does he live?

He's staying at a business hotel nearby.

Give him this money back.

The last game was bogus.

Bogus? - He lost on purpose.

Why?

Stop!

Do you want to embarrass him?

Embarrass him?

You won.

What's wrong with that?

He thinks he can fool me because I'm a woman.

I won't let him take me for a fool!

Calm down. Calm down!

Didn't you come here to borrow money?

Won't that money help you through a tight spot?

You never complained no matter how bad things got.

You must really be in a bind.

That's why you were drinking although you normally don't drink.

Ryoji knew that.

Leave 100,000 for Tsutomu's spending money.

He's my current boyfriend.

I don't know how long he'll stick around.

Tsutomu, call a car.

Okay.

If you leave now, you'll make the first boat out.

Ryoji used to be a part of the Bandai Group...

...and one of the top four under Iwaki.

But, because he did the right thing as a yakuza...

...his 5 years of work went down the drain...

...and he's been cast out of the group.

He's just a shiftless soul with nowhere to go now.

You never know what will happen to change your fortune.

You, too...Cheer up!

Just hang in there.

All right?

Life's just one crazy dance.

I got out of the business, and he found me a place to live.

It all seemed like a dream.

I thought he'd get tired of me soon enough and dump me.

But that night...he asked me to marry him.

He said he was serious and he'd divorce his wife to marry me.

When he said that, I felt that he was just taking me for a fool.

I got so mad, I aimed the gun at the dragon on his back.

The gun just went off.

I was showing her how to use the gun.

Well, I've had it for a while.

It's more like a toy.

So, I gave it to her.

I wanted a child.

When you get to be my age...

...it's hard to find a young girl willing to have your baby.

My wife was a very popular geisha...

...that my father--the former boss--picked to be my bride.

She's a very capable woman.

People say she's the one heading the Shigemune Group.

She has no love for me.

She even hates children.

That's why I turned to Estuko...

My wife isn't at all to blame.

We just never found the time to have children.

I thought I'd stop by before I leave for Manilla tomorrow.

It's not that I really needed to see you...

Make love to me...Just this once.

Maybe I'll go with you.

What time is your plane leaving?

3: 30.

Alone?

I'll go with you.

It's too late.

I'm going with you.

Let's meet at the Itami Airport international looby at 1 2.

I'm going with you.

Sis, we've been looking for you.

What's wrong?

The Boss collapsed in Morigushi last night.

This time he really is sick.

He spit blood.

He went gambling?

The head man and Tokunaga went right away...

...but he's asking for you.

Who does he think he is?

Tell him I don't care about him.

Sis, what are you doing?

Sis...

What about Boss?

Shut up!

What have you been mumbling about?

Get out of my way!

Sis, wait!

Sis...

Sis, he's at Moriguchi Hospital!

Sis, wait!

He's at Moriguchi Hospital!

I'm sorry, but can we go back to Moriguchi?

Go to the Morigushi Hospital.

I'm sorry.

Bye.

I'm coming.

Coming.

You look good.

It's been long time.

Please leave.

You promised never to come by here again.

The kid's another story.

She's my kid. - No, she's not.

She's not your child.

Her father is not you. - Don't give me that.

Before I got arrested you told me you were pregnant.

No! I told you she's not yours. - Out of my way.

Little girl...

You're my daughter, aren't you?

Aren't you?

See?

She knows who I am.

I'm your daddy.

I'm your daddy.

I'm your daddy.

Asami, shall I call the police?

Mind your own business!

Mom!

Mayu...

Little girl...

Ryoji...

All right.

Let's talk.

What?

Reiko...

Will you watch her for a little while?

Come over to my place, Mayu.

Ryoji...

I'm begging you...

Please forget this whole thing and leave.

She's going to start elementary school next year.

My father got in trouble and was on newspapers when I was in elementary school.

Everybody picked on me.

Even the teacher asked if he was a yakuza.

It was really hard on me.

Are you saying yakuza can't have children?

I just don't want her to go through what I went through.

She's my daughter, too.

What right do you have to say that!?

What?

You promised you'd go straight.

You promised to marry me.

And look what you did!

I...

I...

I hate yakuza! - What do you want me to do!?

It's this portion here.

It's spread from his liver to his lungs.

There's not much we can do.

Isn't there something you can do?

I've heard they have a cure for cancer now. Can't you use the Maruyama vaccine?

Please save him, doctor.

I don't care how much it costs.

Missus...

He has a year at the most.

I'm sorry to tell you that.

Please...

Please...

Please, doctor. Please save him.

Excuse me.

That was Moriguchi.

He was worried about me.

What did the hospital director have to say?

He'll be in taking care of you from today.

Is that so?

What a difference in treating patients when you take a private room.

But, isn't this room a bit expensive?

Don't worry about the details, just get better soon.

Thanks.

I'll do my best.

I'm counting on you.

Leave it to me.

This hospital food doesn't do much for the libido.

What I wouldn't give to eat some unagi.

Well, I'm sure you could have a little if you want.

What's wrong with you? Why are you being so nice?

It gives me the creeps.

It's our wedding anniversary today.

Is it?

Is that it?

Give me a kiss.

What are you saying?

I was just kidding.

We got married on April 1 2, at the peak of cherry blossom season.

Did you forget?

Right? I thought it was strange.

What are you trying to pull?

Give me a kiss anyway.

Idiot! - It's been a while, so...

I really am sorry.

You're the unluckiest woman in Osaka to be stuck with me.

I'm sorry.

Hey!

Wait your turn!

Did you hear me!

Wait your turn!

Go ahead!

You really are going to marry me, aren't you?

Mayu will be starting elementary school next year.

The top private schools aren't too keen about taking kids who don't have fathers.

I know that.

But I have my own problems.

If you marry me, I'll do anything for you.

Even the video...

Really? All right. Let's get married.

Wait...wait a minute.

You're wrinkling my clothes.

You're winning today.

Please bet.

Game.

Police! It's a raid!

Turn off the lights!

Get the customers out!

Don't move!

Customers, this way. Hurry. Hurry.

We got a tip.

I'll bet it was Kawato from Wakayama.

Are you sure it's okay?

I don't know about that gun.

Don't worry.

It's reconstructed, but it cost me 300,000 yen.

Here they come.

There he is. The second guy.

The guy who shot Makimura.

I'll kill Kawato, too.

Ready?

We avenge our brother!

You okay?

No! Look at all that blood!

My finger...my finger's gone!

What! Jiro...he lost his finger.

We got to go back, and find it. Turn back!

You idiot!

You want the three of us to get killed?!

Turn back!

I said no!

It's just a finger! Pull yourself together!

Pull yourself together, Nobu!

Come out here!

Come out here!

It's the Kawato Group from Wakayama.

They've been harassing us by creating a ruckus like this every night.

There's a towel factory there.

They're trying to chase the whole row of tenants out.

Why haven't you done anything about it?

With you, your wife...

...and the rest all picked up by the cops...

...what can we do?

Shigemune!

Come on out!

Rotten punk!

Boss!

Komatsu! Let me have your weapon.

I'll kill 'em all!

Not in your condition!

Just give it to me!

I'll kill the whole bunch!

Quick! Get us back to the hospital!

Boss, are you okay?

Komatsu, you saw what fools they're making of us!

Isn't there someone in our Shigemune group man enough to face them?

But they've got Bandai Group's Iwaki backing them.

Then get Iwaki!

We can't do that!

Why not!

Let's just wait until your wife comes back.

We have no choice.

You can't do anything without asking Yuki first!

Bunch of gutless idiots!

You're all worthless.

What about you?

There's no hope left for yakuza anymore.

Little girl...

This is daddy's car.

Great, isn't it?

Runs smooth, too.

Want to take a ride, and see?

What are you doing?

Mayu...

He's trying to kidnap you. Don't go with him!

Get down, Mayu!

Mayu!

We're just going for a drive.

I'll bring her right back. Don't worry.

Mayu, open the door!

Mayu, open the door!

It's the ocean.

I love ocean!

Let's go.

Wow! It's great!

Good?

Mom, are you okay?

You idiot!

Why'd you do that?

Mom, I'm sorry.

Is that your kid?

What a strange kid.

Hold on to this for me.

I'm doing all I can to put some money away for my little girl.

Is your mom home?

Beats me.

Unfriendly brat!

Wait here.

Yes.

Little girl...

Give it up. She's not going for it.

No good?

Shigemune from Konan?

I'm wife of Takaaki Shigemune. Maybe you've read about my husband in the papers.

You mean the one who got shot by a woman?

I'm here to talk to you about Ryoji Kimoto.

Is he in your group?

No, he isn't.

Are you legally married?

Why are you asking me that?

I'm thinking of taking him in...

...so I wanted to know how you felt.

It doesn't matter to me what he is or what he does.

I'm not a part of your world.

Ryoji left this savings book with me.

He's thinking about going straight...Anything for Mayu.

You won't consider taking him back even if he does?

No...

Missus, I'm getting married.

He's a cameraman for a magazine...a respectable man.

Mayu needs a father who has social status.

Oh, you're getting married?

Yes.

Where are you going?

How about a ride in my Mercedes?

It rides real smooth...Just like me.

How about it?

What are you doing?

What did he buy for you? - This!

Idiot!

Don't let him catch you. Run!

Oh, Sis...

Sis...

I'm sorry.

That's why I can't stand kids.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Who are you?

I'm Kageyama's wife.

Wife?

You're his wife?

Yes.

He's married?

Yes.

You're his model.

He talks about you all the time.

I'll go and get him. Please sit down.

He takes so long in the bathroom.

Sorry.

I'm glad you're here.

I've got a wonderful deal.

This time it's a movie.

A first rate director saw your picture, and he wants you for his picture.

Isn't that great? Come on... let's go.

No! Don't touch me!

Stop it! Stop it!

My truck.. ! Damn!

Kimoto!

What the hell's going on here!

What're you doing here?

This is Bandai's territory.

Turning your back on our code and getting into a fight.

Did you forget that we cut our ties with you?

Kawato, can't you overlook this?

I washed my hands of the yakuza world.

I meant to come over and talk to the boss about it.

I know he'll understand.

I guess you stayed in hoosegow too long and forgot.

Our boss is about to become the fifth successor to the Bandai Group.

Do you think he'll meet with a lowlife like you?

I don't care what you say.

I want to stay here.

Give me a break and overlook this.

What a beauty!

I see.

Is that your wife and kid?

Is that what it is?

No!

Don't... !

Kimoto...

We catch you hanging around here again, and you won't get away with it.

It won't just be you we deal with.

Got that?

Got a gun?

What?

I said have you got a gun!

No.

We had a reconstructed one, but it took the finger off a buddy of mine.

Get me explosives too.

What're you planning to do?

Shut up!

Just do as I say!

Will you do something about him?

He's talking about guns and explosives. He can't hold his liquor.

Wait outside.

Yes.

Are you going after Kawato?

If you are, I'll help you.

But...

...the target is Iwaki.

We got this.

It's an invitation to the party to introduce the fifth successor to the Bandai Group.

It'll be next spring on Saishu Island in Korea.

The reception is scheduled for 5 days...

...and my guess is we'll spend 3 days out of them in a card game.

It'll be a game to end all games.

What are you thinking?

A way to take Iwaki down without spilling a drop of blood.

Gambling?

You'll do it for your darling daughter...

...and I'll do...

...to keep my pride as a yakuza wife.

I can't do it.

Even though they've cut me loose, Iwaki's the only father I've known.

Are you planning to keep on being a yakuza?

What are we going to do about money?

In order to get into the game, you'll need at least 50 million.

Here's the money from selling my kimono and ring. Get me 100 times this amount.

We'll split it 50-50.

I'll find the place.

We'll go to the east side where no one knows you.

It's not that easy to get away with cheating at a closely-watched table.

You'll lose everything.

I'm going to risk everything I have on a man like you who has nothing to lose.

If it fails...

...we can just kill ourselves and die in each other's arms.

Miss Mayu Enoki.

Yes.

Look at her. Where do they think they are anyway?

Where's her father?

Well... He's dead.

In any case, we will need her father's name...

...his profession, and his educational background.

We'll also need a copy of your family register.

You won't accept her if she only has one parent?

That's not the case.

What was her father's profession?

He had his own business.

In what field?

He worked in various fields.

It was a field with heavy responsibilities.

Teacher... It's been my dream to have my daughter attend this school.

Please do what you can.

What's this?

A token of my appreciation.

Please...

How rude!

What do you think you're doing!

Mom, are you angry?

Of course.

I'm not going to cry.

You must think I'm a fool.

No...I love you.

I wonder if Nobu's sick.

Are you asleep?

Did you read?

''Bar Madam Murdered...''

Life's just a crazy dance.

Make love to me...

...just one more time.

So warm.

Your young man's very good.

I'm impressed.

It's a bit dark here.

Is it?

It's always like this.

Boss... Have a drink.

Game.

Can he see what's under the card?

Saishu Island, Korea

How does it look?

Now the ceremony is over, and it's like this starting today.

There's been no trouble, and sis is doing well.

That's the hotel they're holding the game at.

They've taken all rooms there. Sis is there, too.

You'll be staying with us.

It's not the greatest place, but bear with it.

We have a 100 million yen deposit for Tatsuyama, head of the Kanto Ryuzan Group.

From Kanto Ryuzan Group's head, Tatsuyama, 100 million yen...

Okay.

Room 5044...

We have a 50 million yen deposit from a representative of Osaka's Shigemune Group.

From a representative of Osaka Shigemune Group, 50 million yen...Got it.

Game.

That's Shigemiune's wife.

Good-looking woman.

It would be a waste to see her die in the gutter.

Good morning.

Last night alone we took in 230 million yen.

At the end of 3 days we should have over 1 billion.

Shigemune's wife is asking to see you, Boss.

Maybe she's come crying to you over that incident.

That's probably why she had the nerve to come waltzing up here.

Hey! - Yes.

Got any American cigarettes?

Got any Lucky Strike? - Yes.

Next is Tatsuyama, head of the Kanto Ryuzan Group...

100 million yen.

Any takers?

There's been so much trouble between us. I was a little worried.

I'm sorry for all the inconvenience we've caused.

I wanted to give you a definite answer as soon as I could.

That's already been settled.

Kawanto said we're just waiting for the eviction.

I'll make sure you get the money we borrowed to keep the record straight.

Forget about it.

Let's not talk about that tonight.

Thanks for coming to my succession ceremony.

Do you remember Ryoji Kimoto?

Kimoto?

I had the chance to get him to come here with me.

You mean the Kimoto I cut off from my group?

You mean that madman?

What!?

If you were a man, you'd be dead by now!

Game.

That should shut the game down.

That's over 100 million!

Well done.

Hey... That was a great game.

Your replacement did a great job for you.

May I have a cigarette?

All right. Here you go.

Here they come.

I'll speed up.

Hang on.

Over here, Ryoji.

Over this way.

Hurry!

Thank you.

Where were you?

Where?

Buy yourself a house with this.

Ryoji...

Tell me...

Are you going to that yakuza, Shigemune's wife?

Tell me.

This time I'll get out of your life for good.

Don't worry. You'll never see me again.

I'll go with you.

Together with Mayu.

I'll stick with you.

It'll be hard.

I don't care.

I don't care if you're a yakuza or whatever.

I'll stick by you.

All right!

You won't regret this!

I'll make you the happiest woman in the world.

No!

Stop!

Don't die!

Don't die!

Honey...

Don't die!

Don't die!

Honey...

Don't die!

Get going!

It's the woman!

Never mind! Keep going!

I'm sorry.

Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Little girl, let her go.

Good girl.

We'll make your mother pretty. Okay?

Mom!

Mayu...

Mom!

Mayu...

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

It's my fault.

Forgive me.

I'm not going to cry. I'm not going to cry!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Bandai Group Headquarters

This is everything we own.

Please check this.

What about the house?

I've left it in the hands of someone we trust.

What about your youngsters?

Those who are married...

I want them out of the yakuza business.

Impressive.

A beautiful exit that befits you.

What do you plan to do now?

I'm going back to Konan.

You don't have a house.

I'm sure I can find a shack somewhere.

And what will you do there?

I'll put up the Sigemune banner.

What!?

If I were a man, I would have given up...

...but unfortunately, I'm a woman.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

Wait!

Are you trying to pick a fight with the 1 5,000-member Bandai Group?

I don't care even if you have a million men under you.

Depending on what you do to us...

...I'll take you on anytime.

Are you crazy?

I passed that point a long time ago.

Let me warn you, Mr Iwaki.

If you set one foot in Shigemune territory...

...I'll fight you until there's not a drop of blood left in me.

If you dismiss me as a lowlife...

...you might just lose your neck.
