Himuro (Yasukaze Motomiya) and Tamura (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi), local delinquents from Yokohama, used their fists to dismantle a local yakuza gang. This drew deadly attention, forcing them to flee to Osaka with the help of Akimoto (Sho Aikawa), the Wakagashira of the Anzai-gumi. Despite escaping, Himuro and Tamura continue to make enemies. One day, they gain recognition from Kawatani (Hitoshi Ozawa) of the powerful Kyowakai, but simultaneously clash with the Kyowakai-affiliated Mikami-gumi, sparking a violent conflict. With Kawatani’s backing, Himuro and Tamura joining the Mikami-gumi seems to settle the dispute. Yet, meanwhile, Kyowakai chairman Gonda (Shinichi Chiba), Wakagashira Kudo (Hakuryu), and Shiseikai chairman Kawabata (Tatsuo Umemiya) begin moves to unify Japan’s entire yakuza world…
