Do you mind if I smoke?

No.

Thanks, Kin-chan.

What?

Even though you don't trim your eyebrows and you don't have a regent hair style,

you are the ex-head of Hasshu League, Mr. Yajima Kintaro, aren't you?

Yeah.

Lumi, is that him?

The Kin-chan you were always talking about.

He's nice. He really is handsome.

Wh...Wh...Wh...What are you?

Shut up!

Shut your mouth! Really, women these days are no good!

Is there a problem? You want trouble?

Oh, you're not a woman.

Let's become bosom friends, sir!

I'm taken.

I missed you, Kin-chan.

What??

I nearly get there, Then I lose my confidence.

I look at the sky and wonder, Will I get to where my dreams come true?

Life used to be so easy for me, And now time is running out

I left my mistakes behind me, Because I wanted to change.

But I haven't changed.

I built a rainbow over the thunder clouds, And time and space, and I started to run.

H! climb that rainbow to a world beyond, Where my heart will learn to sing.

And I will come to see tomorrow.

I can flow,

I can go endlessly.

If I find my peck of courage in time and space,

I will start walking again.

KINTARO RUNS WILD

'7kg Parrot Fish -Record of the Year'

How easygoing he is!

Yajima Kintaro was employed by Chairman Yamato in person.

This is a bombshell as far as the Chairman's business life is concerned.

More to the point he used to sit around as quiet as a mouse, whatever happened,

but when the yakuza gatecrashed the office

looking for Yajima, Tanaka, Maeda and lshikawa, he stood up for them.

That means...

Is he going to give up his position at Yamato Construction?

I think he already has.

No, I don't think Yamato is such a pushover.

We've got to get rid of him no matter what. I'm not gonna take it.

You need to be patient a little longer. The plan is progressing steadily.

Yeah. That's it, Kakei.

It won't be long before l count the tears on Yamato's face.

A..Are you Hagimoto Toru?

You remembered me, Kin-chan.

I've changed too...

...but the way you've changed is amazing.

I used to get into trouble even though I was a poor fighter.

But you always rescued me, Kin-chan.

You scumbags are trespassing on Hasshu territory!

I'll take you apart, however big you are. Get your asses out of here!

Kin-chan was really cool in those days.

Yeah?

After Hasshu broke up, I became the real me.

Lumiko is the number one in Roppongi at the moment.

Huh? I think I'm number one in Japan.

You're cheeky!

We're on the way back from Katsuura,

where we performed a drag queen show at a hotel.

Look at these, Kin-chan!

No.

She's got nice tits, hasn't she?

Nouns...

Won't you sleep with Lumiko some time, Kin-chan?

Hey, shut your mouth! You don't know anything.

Wh...What's wrong with you Lumiko?

There's only one woman for Kin-chan.

It's OK.

Hey, everyone, listen carefully!

I'll tell you slowly and carefully how we used to run.

Stop it, Toru!

Why Kin-chan?

Because of our run on 30th August, I could live with who I was...

What you taught me that day gave meaning to my life.

Gave meaning to your life?

When you started to see the girl, everyone laughed and said you were putting them on.

But she really was a lovely girl.

Though she had weak eyes, she was crystal clear to the bottom of her heart.

Akemi put her whole heart into looking after children in child care.

The way you looked started to change when you met this girl.

It was the same for us.

We felt happy just by looking at this girl.

We thought that you'd quit the gang for this girl.

You'd live together with this girl.

Everyone thought it was a done deed.

We all thought, "Well, that's the way it goes".

What?

Was she raped?

Yes. She was raped.

A...And?

She was a girl who'd been trying hard to live with a handicap.

Then she met the man she fell in love with for the first time.

She must've been feeling contented and really happy.

But...

What? Suicide?

That's a dirty lie! No! Did she die?

Don't be stupid! If she had, there wouldn't be a story to tell!

It was attempted suicide.

She cut her wrist but she was found just in time.

But she was a lifeless shell.

Even though Akemi's life was saved, her spirit was dead.

When Akemi left hospital Kin-chan gave general mobilisation orders to Hasshu League.

Get on, Akemi!

Stop feeling sorry for yourself! Get on behind me!

And it started. The legend of the mega-run started.

- Let's go! - Yeah!

What's the route?

Go round Kan-nana, from Yasukuni Dori Avenue to Keiyo, Kuramae, Koukyo-mae

then go down lchigo-sen to Tamagawa!

The gangs and police will try to stop us.

Don't let them get in our way.

Neither traffic lights nor traffic lanes exist on a biker's run.

You don't know where this run is at if you let them bother you.

We're free.

Anyone interferes with us, I'll ride straight into them.

Special attack corps, you stop the traffic when we go into an intersection.

And everyone else goes straight through it.

If we get stopped, then we're a bunch of losers.

"It's the Hasshu League, tearing up Kan-nana Avenue. I can't count them."

Hasshu League, Kintaro.

Is he about to take over the whole Kanto District?

Stop them!

The police will be crucified if the bikers get away with this.

Beat them!

Are you going to take the Tokyo ringroad and go down lchigo-sen?

No one's done it before!

You're kidding!

You're not the only motorbike-gang.

Guys, if Hasshu's allowed free entry here, there's no future for Haneda Hikouki!

Don't let even one of them get through!

There they come! As we expected! They're trying to break through.

Kill them all!

Hey, Kintaro!

This is for real!

Make way!

If you get in our way, I'll beat you to death with my own hands.

Even if you get through here, there's more waiting for you at Kuramae Bridge.

So what?

Ain't nothing gonna stop these guys.

Asshole, we're coming with you.

From now on, Haneda Hikouki is under Hasshu Yajima's control!

Join them! Go after Kintaro!

Stop!

You're committing serious unlawful acts.

Is this the way humans live?

Don't get carried away!

Young hoodlums deserve stringing up!!

Hey, did you hear?

Hasshu is on a run.

They're going to run right through the whole of Tokyo.

Haneda Hikouki joined them and they're over 5,000 now.

Did you know that? He's doing all this for just one woman.

If there was a guy who'd do this for me, I'd die for him 50,000 times.

We're joining them too!

From a team with less than 10 members to a team with over 1,000 members,

all teams of Kanto district joined them one after another.

They finally became more than 20,000.

Really...?

...20,000?

The police tried to stop us by creating one checkpoint after another.

But special attack corps crashed into the barriers and broke through.

The police weren't messing either.

They made a blockade with 100 police cars just before Kuramae Bridge.

If we changed the route, we were losers, but there was no way to get through.

Everyone thought that was it.

Shiina!

Oh, yeah!

How many off-track vehicles are with us?

At least 500, dude.

Get all of them to crash the police barriers.

Go!

All rig ht!

Stop now. Stop this right now.

Do you realise how much trouble you're in? Think about it!

Everyone was prepared to put his life into Kintaro's hands.

Four-wheeled special attack corps crashed into the police one after another.

We're through!

Forward!

So finally we ran through all of Tokyo and reached the Tamagawa River.

There were many of us who got caught or wasted,

but 15,000 of us achieved our goal with Kin-chan.

Everyone was crying.

We were totally overwhelmed, and we couldn't stop crying.

And then...

Mr. Yajima, please forgive me.

It was us.

It was us who raped your woman.

We raped her knowing she was your girlfriend.

We'll kill you!

Hey!

Bastards!

Kin-chain's reaction made the name Yajima Kintaro a legend for all motorbike-gangs.

You can do anything you want to me.

You can kill me if you want.

We didn't think he'd kill them but that he'd pluck a few of their arms and legs off.

You're not involved.

What you did, isn't involved.

Whatever happens, nothing's going to change the fact that I'm in love with Akemi.

This is a thing just between Akemi and me.

She's the only woman for me.

It's not like you think.

I'll tell you this. Listen carefully!

We're scum without any privilege, and the man ties us up with rules.

Don't forget tonight's run!

No matter how they fence you in, or treat you like shit,

your life stays just as strong and hot as this!

That's all.

Kin-chan and leading members all went to reform institutions after that.

After many months, Kin-chan was let out from the reformatory.

He married Akemi and became a fisherman in her village, where they lived together.

Hasshu broke up at that point.

But no one forgot...

...about Kin-chan.

Bye.

Kin-chan!

What?

You can do it. Because you're Kin-chan.

Even though you dropped out of high school, been a biker gang member

and been sent to a reform school, you can still make a good salaryman.

If...lf I'm able to be of use to one person...

lf l put everything I've got into my life, it's because you taught me how to do it.

You taught me, too.

See you, Toru!

Have a nice trip.

You don't need to worry about the company while you're away.

How many people came to see me off?

Ah, 26 out of all 27 executives.

Only 26?

Who was the one didn't come?

Have you forgotten? It's Kurokawa.

Oh yes, Kurokawa.

Don't worry.

There's no one in Yamato Construction who'll stand up to you.

Just increase your share hold beyond the Chairman's and then make him retire.

I've hired a high quality blonde in Las Vegas. Let's have some fun.

She better be well developed.

I know.

I've known that you like big women since the Ministry of Construction days.

- Has the President left? - Yeah.

Accompanied by Mr. Kakei, Mr. Sawano and four people from the Secretarial Department.

These ten days, while the President is on a business trip, we have an opportunity.

During this period we need do as much groundwork as possible

and ask the Chairman to take action.

Don't say it as if it's easy.

The President's party has 26 members...

...26 of all the 27 executives, only excluding Executive Director Kurokawa,

went to Narita Airport to see the President off.

All the executives have surrendered to President Ohshima.

What about Executive Director Kaminaga?

He took the lead to see the President off.

That traitor!

We're salarymen...

Although Kaminaga worked together with the Chairman from the very start,

he's the same.

Worse still, we're small fries in the company.

There's no way we can change the executive structure.

That's why we move it up to the Chairman.

What can Chairman do now?

We owe the prosperity of today's Yamato Construction to the President's faction,

who are ex-government officials.

That's a fact.

The Chairman knows that too.

That's why he's been staying quiet about being left out!

Are you trying to ruin the company?

Without President Ohshima, Yamato Construction will be bankrupted!

The scale of the company today isn't what it used to be!

Public enterprises are its mainstay.

About 60% of this season's orders come from public enterprises!

We'll antagonise the Ministry of Construction if we remove President Ohshima.

How would the company survive?

You're quite right.

Let's wind this up.

Let's wind up this stupid meeting. Wind it up.

But lshikawa, don't you think our company, as it is at present, is unhealthy?

It's completely dependant on public enterprises.

That's not all.

Is it a good idea to keep increasing the percentage of public enterprises?

What happens when President Ohshima's influence with the Ministry declines?

It's a no win position.

Yamato Construction can't continue the way it is today.

We should start looking for proper business and increase the percentage of private work.

It'll be a lot more difficult than buttering up politicians and government officials.

But we could live with our heads held high.

You're showing your colours, Tanaka.

You've been in bad grace with the President since the Kintaro affair the other day.

You don't have a future in this company.

That's why you're thinking about a stupid idea like this.

Yeah, but I agree. I dislike the President.

Don't be ridiculous!

You idiots!

A salaryman who doesn't like his President?

What a ludicrous way of thinking!

We're not students anymore.

The pecking order is the only human beings function together in the real world.

Just grow up!

How can we work risk our lives at work for a boss we don't respect?

I might fool others but not myself.

I have a wife and children.

Oh, trump that.

Do you think by mentioning that, it relieves you of all responsibility?

It's not like that.

I can't forget everyday life to embark on foolhardy enterprises.

That's the reality of a salaryman.

It's that hooligan, Yajima Kintaro.

You two have let an outsider scramble your brains.

The structure of that hoodlum's brain is different from ours!

He doesn't have anything to protect in his life,

and he's never worked to better himself by gaining qualifications.

That's why he can put his feet up on the President's desk.

Ishikawa, I admire him for it.

I'm pleased that Kintaro reminded me of the days I was living straightforwardly.

Not me.

I've got too much to protect.

My qualifications, my time at this company,

my wife and children, my honour, my pride and everything else.

If Yamato Construction lets me continue to work as I do now,

I'll prostrate myself on the ground for the President.

I'm out.

All right, lshikawa.

If you don't feel like doing it.

But don't tell anyone about this.

Promise me as a friend.

No way.

I'll spread it throughout the company.

So we can prevent a coup d'etat from happening.

I'm afraid I'm out too. You're asking the impossible.

Tanaka, Maeda, sorry but I'm out too.

Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.

I'll talk to lshikawa.

I'm back.

Papa!

- Ryuta! - Papa!

- Have you been good? - Kin-chan!

You caught the great parrot fish! You're in the sports newspaper!

I don't think I've ever seen the Chairman look so happy.

- Yeah. - Come in! Come in!

Wow! Sumptuous!

Kin-chan, you must be hungry. Please help yourself!

First, have a drink!

Kazuki-chan, dinner is ready.

Kazuki!

Shut it!

How could I eat with this asshole? For fuck's sake.

When you're in this house you put on airs as if you're a great guy.

But outside you get beaten up,

and then you throw yourself on the ground, offering money and begging for forgiveness.

How dare you tell me to study and become a salaryman like you!

You're lowlife!

When I was beaten up by hooligans and helped by you in Shibuya last month,

my son was there on his way back from cram school and saw everything.

He used to be a good boy but he has been against me ever since.

No wonder after seeing his father like that.

Get out of my way.

Wh...What?

Kazuki!

What are you doing to my son? What...

Hey, you can only understand the pain, the fear and the shame of being beaten up

if you've ever been beaten up.

The fear of a fist going into your face isn't easy to suppress.

Don't make light of a person being beaten up until you've been through it yourself.

Papa!

There's no parent who brings up a child, who says 'Papa! Papa!'

and throws his arms around your neck, who can help loving it.

Even when the child cheeks him, laughs at him and defies him,

a father never forgets their child as a baby crying for them.

That's what a parent is.

I appreciate that you looked after Ryuta over night.

Oh, this fish is for you.

We missed the feast.

We missed it.

It's open.

My mother said she wants to mind Ryuta...

while you're at work.

Of course, my father is happy about it, too.

I'll be good to him, too.

All right!!

After climbing up a long road,

The lights of the city flicker in the distance.

I realise why I look up at the sky,

And the dream t had that day comes into my mind.

I've kept searching for what never changes, And I've reached my goal at last.

It's you, in my arms, That will change everything in heaven.

We'!! start walking together, Our long way journey to heaven.

As long as it's true that we're together again, I don't need anything else in heaven.
