Milestones of the Century!

Despite the season of heavy rainfall,

Japanese forces continue topush through the Shan State

of Burma towards Mandalay.

Allied forces have reported theuse of special Japanese ghost

soldiers, who are said to be able to survive

in the hostile jungle terrain for months

on end using stealth tacticsand crude ancient weapons.

One thing is certain.

Our allies in the Pacific are pressing

for yet another brutal encounterwith the Japanese invader, who

poses an even greater threat with the use

of a mysterious killing art known as ninja.

Particularly if you get married.

Are you sure you don't want to call the police?

Yes, I'm sure.

It was just money.

They're still out there.

No, a couple of punkslooking for an easy score--

trust me, they're long gone.

What?

Are you sure you are OK?

All right.

You're right.

I'm a little upset.

About what?

About the fact that Ididn't get you this sooner.

What is it? Open it.

A symbol for happiness--

Casey, it's beautiful.

Here.

For you, and our baby.

You didn't finish your gyoza.

Lost my appetite.

Not me.

I love you.

Me too.

Casey.

Casey, are you awake?

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Go to sleep.

No, tell me.

Namiko.

I want Black Thunder chocolate.

Again?

Sorry.

I'll get it.

Never mind.

It's OK.

You don't have to.

No, it's fine.

I'll-- I'll just run down to the super.

OK?

Be right back.

You really don't have to.

Stop it.

I want to.

OK?

Uh, Casey?

In that case, can youalso get some Tao Kae Noi?

Chocolate and seaweed?

Namiko?

You're never gonna believe this.

No!

Namiko.

No.

This was always a special place to her.

This is where she took me aftershe told me she was pregnant.

I didn't know.

I am very sorry for your loss.

How did you hear?

Thailand is not exactly the North Pole.

She was like a little sister to me.

What are the police saying?

Robbery.

They say it's a trend around here.

I have my doubts.

Doubts?

It's not important.

Why don't you come to my dojo in Thailand?

Get away from thisdarkened place for a while.

Train.

Begin to empty yourself of grief.

Thank you, senpai.

But I have some unfinished business.

What sort of business, Casey?

Thank you for coming, paying your respects.

Come in.

I have a long memory.

- Yes, sir. - Good.

OK.

Welcome, Casey-san.

I am pleased you changed your mind.

It was a good time for me come.

Wake from death.

Return to life.

I hope so, senpai.

Casey-san, please meet Hiroshiand Lucas, my senior students.

You don't remember me, do you?

No.

I visited Dojo about 10 years ago.

We came with Ichiro from Toronto.

You were already the man back then.

I still tell people the wayyou sparred with the pro.

Fantastic.

It was against, um--

what was his name?

Masazuka-- that's it.

Anyway, sensei said you might come here.

And I'm glad you did.

So why do you stay here in this country?

I stay to honor on my father's wish.

Why Thailand?

After the war, when myfather returned to Osaka,

he did not like what he saw.

He said Japan had lost her way.

My father was not what you call a flexible man.

He was part of Fujita Seiko'sspecial fighting force.

Fujita Seiko?

In 1940, Fujita led 2,500soldiers into the jungle--

a unique training like noother, a unit of ninja.

2,500 soldiers into thejungle, only 14 came out.

My father was one of them.

I believe he would havetraveled all the way to Burma

if he had been allowed to.

But he settled here instead, founded

this martial arts school, and collected

old ancient artifacts.

Excuse me.

What is our code?

To have no code.

What is our way?

Every way.

What is our goal?

To thrive in the shadows as our enemies

perish in the sunlight.

I'm sorry.

Casey!

Casey!

I suppose you think you havean excuse for such behavior.

I'm sorry, senpai.

No apologies!

Do you remember the You have lost control.

It is time for [japanese].

You have to control your emotions,

and not to let your emotions control you.

Hey.

You need a bib, man.

You need some manners.

What?

What?

Get up.

Hit me.

Come on.

Hit me.

Again.

Yeah, again!

My god.

What happened to you?

Give me the basket.

No, it's my turn.

I got it.

Just give it to me.

I'll pick the fruit.

Why are you helping me?

It's OK.

Sensei, [japanese].

We found him dead in the [inaudible]...

Senpai, I need to tell you something.

The wound on Lucas's neck, it's the exact

same wound as Namiko's.

I was supposed to be in the woods, not Lucas.

I see.

There were three friends--

your father-in-law, Takeda, my father, and a rough boy

from Nagoya named Isamu.

They were the beststudents at the Koga Dojo.

When their sensei died, Isamu challenged

Takeda for control of the dojo.

There was a bad fight.

Takeda killed Isamu.

Killed him?

Now, Takeda was free to continue the tradition.

However, he did not plan on one thing.

Isamu had a younger brother, a boy

named Goro, a boy who witnessedthe death of his older brother.

My father said he'd neverforget the boy's words.

After a few years, the rumors started.

Goro had grown up to become a criminal.

Started one of the majordrug cartels in the Golden

Triangle in Burma.

Why are you telling me all this?

Because, it's known thatGoro taught his men how to kill

using the [japanese] withbarbed wire instead of chain,

became his signature.

The wound you just saw.

So you're saying--

I'm saying it's more than likely, yes.

So what?

He's still seeking revenge?

You're Takeda's son-in-law.

This makes you a target.

You need to return to theStates before it's too late.

You're telling me to run.

I'm telling you to live.- This isn't living.

I'm going after him.

I need to know exactly where he is.

You're going to Burma?

It's suicide.

It's justice.

It seems like revenge.

You can call it what you will.

You cannot go.

I don't have a choice, senpai.

All anyone knows is somewhere inside

the jungles outside Rangoon--

a well-guarded secret.

I'll find him.

If I cannot talk you out of leaving, then

you should take this with you.

What is it?

Belonged to my father.

His lifetime in the jungle.

This region is where he hid.

What are these?

Small plots near someold ruins where my father's

unit bury their dead.

It's said to be in the sameregion as Goro's compound is.

My father told me that in each plot,

there is a corner underwhich weapons were buried.

It is marked with the old[japanese] hand signs, exactly

like these.

Casey.

Remember, the man who seeksrevenge should dig two graves.

They're going to need a lot more than that.

The jungle is Goro's territory.

His men are everywhere.

Good luck, boss.

Please, be careful.

Take me upriver.

Hm, copy.

Casey, I'm pregnant.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

It will be done by next week.

Always some delay.

Sales are up 15%.

There is no one to rival you.

Your enemies are disappearing.

Yet, you're unsatisfied.

Forgive me.

But you are addicted to money.

No.

What is it, then?

Nothing.

I was just thinking.

Yes?

At the end of the game, the pawn and the king

go into the same box.

I don't understand.

More sake?

What was that?

Goro.

Who are you?

Namiko married a gaijin.

You know Namiko'sdead, you son of a bitch.

Casey-san, I'm very happy you are alive.

Thank you, senpai.

Tea?

Please.

So, tell me what happened.

Excuse me.

What is our code?

To ride in the shadows as ourenemies die in the sunlight.

It was you.

What?

You set this whole thing up.

You sent those thugs to attack me.

And you were in Osaka theminute after Namiko was killed.

And Lotus too.

How could you?

It was not personal.

Not personal?

You needed proper motivation.

You turned me into an assassin.

I had to.

Goro was becoming aproblem for my operation.

I couldn't take a chance to get exposed.

You were the only one who was skilled enough

to find Goro, kill him.

You have always been special.

She was pregnant.

I didn't know.

Casey-san, there are only two choices now.

Either we join forces, or one of us must die.

There's only one choice.

I see.

Sensei.

Sensei.
