[a01_1500] Uncle Kaz, look!
[a01_1500] Majima-san...
[a01_1500] That sandy beach sounds better every minute.
[a02_0710] For real...?
[a02_0710] Sir! Are you all right?
[a02_0710] I am now. You saved me!
[a02_0710] Believe so... Thank you.
[a02_0710] Me? No, no, no...
[a02_0710] He saved me too. Things got pretty hairy back there, might not have made it without him.
[a02_0710] Nah, man, hang on.
[a02_0710] Our turf war is our problem, not yours. You don't have a dog in this fight!
[a02_0710] So I wanna know. Why'd you help?
[a02_0710] You're right. I don't care about your turf.
[a02_0710] I just saw something I couldn't look past. That's all.
[a02_0710] And you were ready to die over it!?
[a02_0710] Some things you don't give up on, no matter what.
[a02_0710] Can you stand?
[a02_0710] Thank you so much, for everything!
[a02_0710] This lost us a lot of time...
[a02_0710] Oh well. Let's pick up where we left off. Take me to your family's office.
[a02_0710] What, you got something better to do?
[a02_0710] Follow me please.
[a02_0710] The hell got into him...?
[a02_0710] You got anything like that?
[a02_0710] It's this way.
[a03_0610] Uncle Kaz, is that...?
[a03_0610] Yeah.
[a03_0610] Hello! Is this your home?
[a03_0610] It is. I'm Kiryu.
[a03_0610] Kiryu-san! A pleasure. I'm the minister of land, Suzuki.
[a03_0610] I know who you are.
[a03_0610] Then you must know I strive to better Okinawa's standard of living.
[a03_0610] It is a responsibility I hold in the highest regard.
[a03_0610] Oh yeah? What about the residents you uproot along the way? How do you regard them?
[a03_0610] Now, now—you shouldn't be so quick to judge.
[a03_0610] I can't blame you for your suspicion. This issue is beyond most civilians' grasp.
[a03_0610] But our best financial recourse is to focus our efforts on bringing domestic tourism to the region.
[a03_0610] The future of Okinawan prosperity depends on it.
[a03_0610] After all, the development of a resort means those children will see a brighter future.
[a03_0610] The constant trickle of wealth will grant them new opportunities, open new doors well beyond your imagination.
[a03_0610] This place is all we have. Nothing would hurt these children more than to lose their home.
[a03_0610] And I'll see to it you'll have assistance relocating.
[a03_0610] You're missing the point.
[a03_0610] Don't you think they've lost enough already?
[a03_0610] And now you want to take away the one place they feel safe.
[a03_0610] I see. You really have become quite attached to this land, haven't you?
[a03_0610] I understand, of course. The view here is positively picturesque.
[a03_0610] We are having two different conversations here.
[a03_0610] My, my! You really are passionate about this!
[a03_0610] And, to your credit, I find your resolve refreshing!
[a03_0610] Never change, good sir! The world needs more people like you.
[a03_0610] ...I don't like repeating myself. Pack up.
[a03_0610] Gracious! Time really does fly when you're having a good chat, doesn't it?
[a03_0610] Well, I won't wear out my welcome.
[a03_0610] See you kiddos again soon!
[a03_0630] What the hell are you doing outside my house at this hour? Don't think I won't call the cops.
[a03_0630] Apologies. Wasn't my intention to scare you.
[a03_0630] Sure it wasn't. You're not one of Suzuki's goons, are you?
[a03_0630] One of Suzuki's, huh?
[a03_0630] You know what people say when you're scoping out a new place to live?
[a03_0630] Take a good look at the town at night. Then you'll get a glimpse of its true nature.
[a03_0630] What are you implying?
[a03_0630] This area's nice—and I'm not talking about its beauty.
[a03_0630] If you listen close, you can hear the steady rhythm of this town's heartbeat.
[a03_0630] Conversation, music, laughter. Peaceful and free of crime.
[a03_0630] Go to Tokyo, and you'll find it's all show. Got none of the character of this place.
[a03_0630] Hold it. Who are you? Why are you spying on my family?
[a03_0630] Are you perhaps the proprietor of this orphanage?
[a03_0630] And if I am?
[a03_0630] Then I'm sorry for getting you involved.
[a03_0630] What...?
[a03_0630] Wait a second...! That was Tamiya, the minister of defense!
[a03_0630] He came out here without a security detail...?
[a03_0630] Suzuki, Tamiya... They have one thing in common. They put on a different face once the camera starts rolling.
[a03_0630] Wouldn't that be something?
[a03_0640] C'mon, man... Watch yourself next time.
[a03_0640] I didn't mean it, really...
[a03_0640] We're gonna turn a blind eye just this once. You got that?
[a03_0640] Got it, yes, of course.
[a03_0640] Sorry, Boss. I didn't mean to cause you so much trouble...
[a06_0410] Oh, hey! Aniki! Over here!
[a06_0410] You sent me all over town, you know that?
[a06_0410] Heh, my bad! Didn't mean for that to happen.
[a06_0410] Aw, c'mon. Fresh in from Okinawa, who could blame you? Right?
[a06_0410] You're...
[a06_0410] Hamazaki!
[a06_0410] Oh? To think a blip like me would wind up on your radar...
[a06_0410] That there's an honor, Fourth Chairman.
[a06_0410] Uh... You know this old man, Aniki?
[a06_0410] What are you doing here?
[a06_0410] Just happened to be in the area. Ran into your boy by chance, you see.
[a06_0410] I don't know about that. Sounds a little convenient to me.
[a06_0410] You might stand out a little more than you realize, Fourth Chairman. You ever consider that?
[a06_0410] Him too, matter of fact.
[a06_0410] From the moment you set foot in this fine city, every street you took, every shop you swung by...
[a06_0410] You never noticed I had eyes on you this whole time, did you?
[a06_0410] Cute kid. Better keep him on a short leash, though. Be a pity if something happened to him.
[a06_0410] No telling what could happen out there.
[a06_0410] The hell are you talkin' about? I can take care of myself.
[a06_0410] Yeah... Sure you can.
[a06_0410] Oh, right. One more thing and I'll be on my way.
[a06_0410] Fourth Chairman, you're looking for Kanda, aren't you?
[a06_0410] Kanda?
[a06_0410] How did you know?
[a06_0410] Please.
[a06_0410] The fourth chairman deigned to grace us with his presence. 'Course I'd bend over backwards to anticipate his every need.
[a06_0410] I don't want the help. Or the attention.
[a06_0410] Whatever you say, sir. I understand. I'll get out of your hair soon enough.
[a06_0410] I'll just be talking to myself, don't mind me.
[a06_0410] Kanda's at a place called the Red Brick Hotel, room 403.
[a06_0410] While his goons are out rounding up women, he's working himself up waiting for their return.
[a06_0410] That man has some strange hobbies...
[a06_0410] He just loves massaging his women.
[a06_0410] Guy's a real sicko, honestly...
[a06_0410] If Kanda and I got rid of each other, that'd make things easier for you, wouldn't it?
[a06_0410] Got rid of each other? Oh dear, what a dreadful thought.
[a06_0410] Kanda's one thing... But I'd never make a move against the fourth chairman.
[a06_0410] Well, that's all I have to say to myself.
[a06_0410] Excuse me, gentlemen. It's time I take my leave.
[a06_0410] ...So, what was that all about, Aniki?
[a06_0410] Rikiya.
[a06_0410] Nobody ever taught you not to talk to strangers? Nobody, ever?
[a06_0410] Kamurocho can be a scary place, you know?
[a07_0240] [man grunting loudly and forcefully]
[a07_0240] [woman moaning, sounding pained]
[a07_0240] Boss sure is going hard today, huh...
[a07_0240] Well, he needed an outlet after losing to Kiryu...
[a07_0240] Still, don't you think this is going a little too far?
[a07_0240] Kiryuuu! I'll fuckin' kill youuuuuu!
[a07_0240] [woman panicking, then screaming]
[a07_0240] Clean up this mess.
[a07_0240] Holy shit...
[a07_0240] Kiryu...
[a07_0240] Just you wait, I'll rip your fuckin' head off with my own two hands!
[a07_0280] I'm done wasting my time on you.
[a07_0280] They made you patriarch of the Nishikiyama Family? What a mistake.
[a07_0280] You don't deserve his legacy. Quit dragging his name through your goddamn filth. Scumbag.
[a09_0450] ...You see, we're on the cusp of success here.
[a09_0450] But if we don't deal with Kiryu, that'll stall the Tojo Clan's land acquisition.
[a09_0450] No doubt he'll try to stop us, and if he does, the resort deal will end up back at square one.
[a09_0450] Now if we snuff out Kiryu... that'll also settle the eviction matter. Two birds, one stone.
[a09_0450] From there, it's a straight shot to the PM's chair.
[a09_0450] Sound about right, Minister Suzuki?
[a09_0450] Yes, I completely agree...
[a09_0450] No man can stand a chance against your special forces, not even the fourth chairman himself!
[a09_0450] ...You're worried things will snowball?
[a09_0450] Well, all you'd have to do is cover it up.
[a09_0450] Think of the power you'll soon obtain. A scandal like that? Just gas in the wind.
[a09_0450] All right, then. Goodbye now.
[a09_0450] And with that, Minister Suzuki will most definitely dispatch his soldiers.
[a09_0450] Good work. Then that means we don't have any more business with you.
[a09_0450] Yeah? You sure you don't need a middleman?
[a09_0450] Though, personally, I don't give a damn if you decide to work with Suzuki directly.
[a09_0450] Lau... Our boss was obsessed with taking down Kazuma Kiryu.
[a09_0450] You knew and took advantage of that.
[a09_0450] By dangling Kiryu as bait, you got the Snake Flower Triad wrapped up in your schemes.
[a09_0450] Our boss fell for it. He bit and paid the price.
[a09_0450] In the end, your meddling cost him his life. He died because of you!
[a09_0450] Well, can't argue with that. But shouldn't you be thanking me instead?
[a09_0450] Bastard...!
[a09_0450] Look at it this way. Your boss abused his authority for a personal grudge against Kiryu, and it killed him.
[a09_0450] In other words, a man ill-suited for leadership went and brought about his own demise. Isn't that great?
[a09_0450] And don't forget... I joined forces with the Snake Flower Triad—not just Lau.
[a09_0450] So if we stay on friendly terms, then you'll have a stake in the resort deal, too.
[a09_0450] The rights will amount to no less than 100 billion yen.
[a09_0450] I imagine the main branch back in China would be awfully pleased with the profits.
[a09_0450] Hell, if you're so pressed to get revenge for your old boss, why not take Kiryu's head while you're at it?
[a09_0450] 'Cause then... Forget leading the Japanese branch, that'll land you a seat at the big boys' table back at HQ.
[a09_0450] We'll take you up on your offer. But this is it, no more second chances.
[a09_0450] Don't let him out of sight.
[a09_0450] Yes, sir!
[a09_0450] I did what I could— now to watch it all fall into place.
[a09_0850] Hamazaki...
[a09_0850] You're testing my patience here. Did you really think that you could run from us?
[a09_0850] No, no! C'mon now, boys. I'm not gonna try anything funny.
[a09_0850] Just gonna phone the main branch for reinforcements, is all!
[a09_0850] Give me some time, and Kiryu's head will be yours—
[a09_0850] That is a tempting offer. One I'm sure headquarters would more than happy to accept.
[a09_0850] Isn't it?
[a09_0850] Then let me—
[a09_0850] But... who gives a shit about that now?
[a09_0850] From the moment you walked into our lives, it's been nothing but a living hell!
[a09_0850] All I want now is for you to suffer after what you put us through!
[a09_0850] No more running, Hamazaki!
[a09_0850] No more cards up my sleeve. Guess that's all she wrote.
[a09_0870] ...I see. Understood.
[a09_0870] Hamazaki's whereabouts are completely unknown.
[a09_0870] Well, there's a good chance he lost his life— having exploited the Snake Flower Triad as he did.
[a09_0870] In any case...
[a09_0870] Think nothing of it. The very least we could do is clean up after that man.
[a09_0870] Moving forward, you may leave the development of your resort in our hands.
[a09_0870] But can I trust you to deliver results?
[a09_0870] Of course—and very quickly, at that.
[a09_0870] I'll demonstrate just how inept Hamazaki was... and how a real yakuza operates.
[a09_0870] I must thank you for your cooperation. I'm glad you stepped in when you did.
[a12_0850] So you're leaving Kamurocho. I take it you won't be coming back here for a while, either.
[a12_0850] I would say I'll be there if you need me... But, honestly? I think it's about time for me to bow out.
[a12_0850] It's up to the people of Kamurocho to decide what to do with their city. Same goes for the Tojo Clan. I have no right to interfere.
[a12_0850] Guess that means we can't afford to screw up, or else things will really go to hell.
[a12_0850] Take it from me—as long as you make the best out of every day, you'll be just fine.
[a12_0850] There's only one thing you need to watch out for...
[a12_0850] And that'd be the guys who choose to walk the wrong path, guys who choose to prey on the city folk like it's nothing... Guys like me.
[a12_0850] You're not like that at all, Kiryu-san!
[a12_0850] No. I am, can't deny it.
[a12_0850] Once you step foot in the underworld, it's almost impossible to leave, no matter how hard you try.
[a12_0850] Now that I'm finally free to live my life... I'm devoting all of my time to my kids. They deserve nothing less.
[a12_0850] I see Okinawa's home now. For you and Haruka.
[a12_0850] That's right, I'm a family man now.
[a12_0850] Can't run off every time things go sideways. I keep that up, and I'll never become the parent those children need.
[a12_0850] Well... I've got a flight to catch. Ready to go?
[a12_0850] Ready, Uncle Kaz!
[a12_0850] That motherfucker... You think I'm gonna let you have your happily ever after?
[a12_0850] I wouldn't if I were you.
[a12_0850] The moment you drive in that knife, there's no more turning back.
[a12_0850] Mine!? What— Aren't you supposed to be dead?
[a12_0850] How the hell do you survive a nosedive off the hospital roof?
[a12_0850] Is that important right now? I believe the two of us have more pressing matters to discuss.
[a12_0850] And what the hell would those be?
[a12_0850] Let's reflect on the past year, shall we?
[a12_0850] I never bent to anyone else, always did things my way. And like any respectable yakuza, you held fast to your goals.
[a12_0850] That's nothing to scoff at.
[a12_0850] But it's also wise to know when to stand down.
[a12_0850] Oh, piss off! What do you know!? Tell me, what do I get from backing off?
[a12_0850] Accept it, Hamazaki-san. The reality is, we've lost.
[a12_0850] To Kazuma Kiryu and his boundless love for Morning Glory—for his children.
[a12_0850] The hell did Kanda teach you back in the day? A yakuza is done for when he admits defeat! Don't you get that!?
[a12_0850] Yes, I do—and fairly well. But neither of us can be considered yakuza anymore.
[a12_0850] Surely a man as sharp as yourself doesn't need me to spell that out to you.
[a12_0850] You think I care?
[a12_0850] This is about what he deserves. He's no better than us! Rampaging all over town, throwing his weight around, but he gets off scot-free? Fuck that!
[a12_0850] Why does he get a happy ending? What makes him so goddamn special!?
[a12_0850] We all come from the same walk of life!
[a12_0850] So how come he's the only one who gets a free pass!?
[a12_0850] What have we done that he hasn't? What makes him so different from the rest of us!?
[a12_0850] Well, Mine!? Answer me!
[a12_0850] Take a closer look. Do you really think he's happy with this outcome?
[a12_0850] What?
[a12_0850] He so desperately clung to his farcical family and even went as far as to abandon his past...
[a12_0850] Perhaps he looks happy to you and every other passerby, but I beg to differ.
[a12_0850] Oh yeah? Why's that?
[a12_0850] Because from where I stand, I see nothing but a living hell.
[a12_0850] Hell?
[a12_0850] Despite how righteous or principled a person may be, we are all only human.
[a12_0850] It's difficult to judge whether someone is truly virtuous or not. They might not even be aware of their own true nature.
[a12_0850] Which means, if he is not inherently good...
[a12_0850] Well, then he'll be doomed to play pretend in Okinawa for the rest of his days, a mere actor on the stage of domesticity.
[a12_0850] And that's no paradise if Kiryu's not the angel he makes himself out to be.
[a12_0850] Yes, exactly.
[a12_0850] The man I fought on the rooftop, he thrived and delighted in violence.
[a12_0850] When the two of us exchanged blows, I could see the spark in his eyes... like that of an innocent child.
[a12_0850] Tell me, which way do you think the scales tip for him?
[a12_0850] He may be docile for now...
[a12_0850] But I doubt he'll keep his head down for long. It's only a matter of time before he falls to temptation and bares his fangs once more.
[a12_0850] The best way for us to exact revenge, then...
[a12_0850] It's to ensure that the dragon never takes another step outside of his den again.
[a12_0850] Drop the poetry. What are you trying to say? That we keep an eye on him or something?
[a12_0850] Not quite. We simply keep him away from those who need him.
[a12_0850] Surely, Kiryu-san chose to walk this path knowing full well everything that it entails.
[a12_0850] I sincerely doubt that he'll ever return to Kamurocho again.
[a12_0850] So for Kiryu, staying at that orphanage is more like living in exile. He's trying to atone for his past by making sure those kids turn out all right.
[a12_0850] One more thing, Hamazaki-san. There's someone I'd like for you to meet. He asked me to introduce you two.
[a12_0850] Is there now? Funny. Who the hell would want anything to do with us?
[a12_0850] He's known as the Fixer—a man with enough pull to influence the underworld away from public eye.
[a12_0850] He requested that I assist him with a certain job.
[a12_0850] That so? Never heard of him.
[a12_0850] Care to join me, Hamazaki-san?
[a12_0850] Only those who recognize their own vices are able to control them within others. Come walk with me down the wrong path.
[a91_0100] When did everything start to go wrong?
[a91_0100] I've been alone my whole life.
[a91_0100] Loved by no one.
[a91_0100] Needed by no one.
[a91_0100] In the midst of abject poverty, I had no companion save for my own loneliness.
[a91_0100] That's why I made it my goal...
[a91_0100] To make something of myself. To obtain wealth, prestige—everything, and then some.
[a91_0100] endured more than anyone else, to reap all that I could.
[a91_0100] Neither wealth nor prestige could satisfy me.
[a91_0100] But then I came to a realization:
[a91_0100] I worked harder than anyone else,
[a91_0100] There was only ever one thing I desired...
[a91_0200] You're dismissing me from the R&D department?
[a91_0200] Me?
[a91_0200] It seems the majority has voted in favor of that, yes.
[a91_0200] Which means this emergency board meeting is now concluded.
[a91_0200] Elaborate, Tashiro. What's the meaning of this?
[a91_0200] It's exactly as you've heard.
[a91_0200] We ask that you take a step back from the R&D department.
[a91_0200] Come again? You are aware this is my company, right?
[a91_0200] Do you think you can do whatever you please with it?
[a91_0200] I do apologize, sir, but please try to understand our stance.
[a91_0200] You saw the outcome yourself just now, did you not? Let's put this matter behind us.
[a91_0200] Though you won't be as hands-on in the future, you will still be able to oversee the company.
[a91_0200] We simply wished to ease the burden on your shoulders.
[a91_0200] Cut the bullshit!
[a91_0200] You want me out of the way—is that it? After all, the chairman's little more than a figurehead!
[a91_0200] This is obviously a coup!
[a91_0200] You've been overstepping your boundaries.
[a91_0200] Inflating budgets, investing in unprofitable sectors, overhauling project after project...
[a91_0200] At this rate, the whole company will go under.
[a91_0200] That's why we felt some distance was necessary.
[a91_0200] Everything I do is necessary for the company—for our success!
[a91_0200] Otsuka, you're the R&D chief! Surely, you agree!
[a91_0200] Sir, if I may...
[a91_0200] I believe this to be the right decision.
[a91_0200] What...?
[a91_0200] While your projects are certainly innovative, the reality is that we're unlikely to see any profit in the next several years.
[a91_0200] You understand, even if we're investing in our future, we still need to put dinner on the table at the end of the day.
[a91_0200] We can't even afford to reward our employees for all their hard work.
[a91_0200] Focusing on immediate returns will only doom the company!
[a91_0200] I'm afraid our decision is final.
[a91_0200] Thank you for your service, Chairman Mine.
[a91_0200] They were the ones who had worshiped me, followed me, trusted me.
[a91_0200] Having spent the entirety of my life alone, their presence had brought me comfort.
[a91_0200] But deep down, some part of me knew that none of it was real.
[a91_0200] I knew that, yet...
[a91_0200] Just where did it all go wrong?
[a91_0300] Dojima!
[a91_0300] What was that...?
[a91_0300] Get your ass out here, Daigo Dojima!
[a91_0300] Stay back, Chairman!
[a91_0300] They're targeting you!
[a91_0300] Back up the car!
[a91_0300] Open up, dammit!
[a91_0300] Don't! Don't go!
[a91_0300] You think you can fuck with us!?
[a91_0300] Stop! Don't do this!
[a91_0300] No, it's not safe! Just keep your head down!
[a91_0300] Hold on!
[a91_0300] You damn dog!
[a91_0300] Fuck! Hurry, get outta here!
[a91_0300] Hey! Hang in there!
[a91_0300] Hey... Hey!
[a91_0300] Eight members of the Tojo Clan, dead.
[a91_0300] Three of the assailants, also dead.
[a91_0300] All of 'em a bunch of young fools who chose the wrong path in life.
[a91_0300] Must be nice. Hm, Dojima-san?
[a91_0300] Having underlings who'd take a bullet for you in a heartbeat.
[a91_0300] Still won't talk, huh?
[a91_0300] Stubborn son of a bitch.
[a91_0300] I couldn't look away from him.
[a91_0300] How could other people risk their lives for one man? I could hardly believe it.
[a91_0300] After that day, I could never forget his name.
[a91_0300] Daigo Dojima...
[a91_0300] What lies between him and those who had died for him?
[a91_0300] You're not laying a hand on him!
[a91_0300] Dojimaaa!
[a91_0400] There he is.
[a91_0400] Congratulations on your release, Aniki!
[a91_0400] The hell? First thing I see right outta the slammer is this sad excuse of a welcomin' party!?
[a91_0400] Sorry about that... Seems like everyone else got held up.
[a91_0400] You're shittin' me...
[a91_0400] Whatever! You best grit your teeth, boys!
[a91_0400] Damn, they're broke as all hell!
[a91_0400] Looks like the rumors were true.
[a91_0500] What are you doing!?
[a91_0500] Don't be like that. I just wanna make you reel with pleasure.
[a91_0500] Just relax, and I'll have ya feelin' like you're in heaven in no time!
[a91_0500] Busy man, aren't you?
[a91_0500] On the fast track to become a repeat offender, I see.
[a91_0500] Huh? Who the hell are you?
[a91_0500] Someone who has business with you. Talking shop would be difficult were you behind bars, though.
[a91_0500] Damn it! We were just gettin' to the good part! Alright, ya fuckin' cockblocker! You asked for it!
[a91_0500] Oh, pardon me, I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Yoshitaka Mine, and I'd like to discuss—
[a91_0500] Shut the fuck up!
[a91_0500] He's an insult to apes.
[a91_0500] And beat it!
[a91_0500] Hold still so I can get a punch in!
[a91_0500] I suppose there's no use talking to an animal.
[a91_0500] Hey, trust me!
[a91_0600] I'm sick and tired of all your dodgin', goddamn it!
[a91_0600] Ya think you're slick!?
[a91_0600] Not an ape—a monster...
[a91_0600] Then dodge this...
[a91_0600] ...ya slippery bastaaard!
[a91_0600] Goddamn it all!
[a91_0600] What the hell is wrong with ya!?
[a91_0600] Dodgin' every fuckin' thing all the fuckin' time!
[a91_0600] As I said before, I'm not here to fight you.
[a91_0600] Drop that shit already, man!
[a91_0600] I don't wanna hear it! Right now, all I wanna do is have some fun with this girl!
[a91_0600] And this is?
[a91_0600] Five hundred thousand yen.
[a91_0600] Is that enough for you to leave this woman alone?
[a91_0600] Five hundred grand!?
[a91_0600] Gimme that!
[a91_0600] Oh shit, it really is!
[a91_0600] Damn, which soapland should I hit up?
[a91_0600] With that, you're free to go. Are you able to walk?
[a91_0600] Yes!
[a91_0600] Got enough for the full course and then some.
[a91_0600] Aw shit, I'm already gettin' horny as hell thinkin' about it. Alright, ladies, here I come!
[a91_0600] Kanda-san.
[a91_0600] C'mon, man, piss off! You get off on annoyin' me or what!?
[a91_0600] Are you truly satisfied with that meager sum?
[a91_0600] Huh?
[a91_0600] I'll cut to the chase: Kanda-san, would you like to be my business partner?
[a91_0600] The fuck? This some kinda pyramid scheme?
[a91_0600] It's not, no. The truth is, I'm simply looking to make a name for myself in the underworld.
[a91_0600] After all, it's a seven trillion yen industry. Who wouldn't be interested in such a lucrative field?
[a91_0600] But while I have no shortage of capital, I am rather lacking in connections.
[a91_0600] I was hoping you could introduce me to the Nishikiyama Family, Kanda-san.
[a91_0600] You, a yakuza? Yeah, I ain't buyin' it.
[a91_0600] Of course, I wouldn't ask this of you for free.
[a91_0600] Does ten million yen sound agreeable?
[a91_0600] T-Ten million!?
[a91_0600] Is this a sufficient price for your trust?
[a91_0600] I simply wanted to discuss—
[a91_0600] Whaddaya... What's your angle here, asshole!?
[a91_0700] I see... So you're the chairman of a startup company.
[a91_0700] Acting Patriarch, hear me out, Mine here's real good at rakin' in the cash.
[a91_0700] With him around, we'll be rollin' in the dough in no time!
[a91_0700] Hm... And he did bring us quite the gift.
[a91_0700] All right, fine.
[a91_0700] Can do! I'll keep an eye on him.
[a91_0700] Kanda-san, first things first, I'd like a more in-depth analysis of the Nishikiyama Family's financial state.
[a91_0700] Why's that?
[a91_0700] I mean no offense, but I believe we're overdue for some restructuring.
[a91_0700] Kanda, you show him the ropes.
[a91_0800] Perfect. Excellent work.
[a91_0800] Yes... Bye.
[a91_0800] Good news, Kanda-san. We sold the land where Kuwata Building 3 once stood.
[a91_0800] I've already recorded our earnings from the transaction.
[a91_0800] That's what I'm talkin' about!
[a91_0800] You're seriously one hell of a guy, Mine!
[a91_0800] I'm glad I could be of service to the family, but this is only the beginning.
[a91_0800] The conflict with the Omi left a deep scar, so to speak.
[a91_0800] The Tojo Clan's many assets and even their own families are struggling to make a profit.
[a91_0800] Such cases call for an intervention— for us to step in and overhaul operations.
[a91_0800] To do so, we'll need to find promising third-tier subsidiaries and entice them, get them to join us.
[a91_0800] Hell yeah, let's snatch 'em up! M&A, baby!
[a91_0800] Some feathers may be ruffled in the process, but in the end, it's a win-win for everyone.
[a91_0800] I doubt the higher-ups would be upset about that.
[a91_0800] Now things are gettin' fun.
[a91_0800] We'll be runnin' Kamurocho 'fore long!
[a91_0800] I was so confident that generating more cash flow for the Tojo Clan would make me stand out.
[a91_0800] I'd catch Daigo Dojima's eye...
[a91_0800] and ascertain what drew people to him.
[a92_0100] Tonight's on me! Drink up, boys!
[a92_0100] Hell yeah! Thank you so much, sir!
[a92_0100] You're the best, Aniki! You got a money tree somewhere?
[a92_0100] 'Cause you've been rakin' it in since ya got outta the slammer!
[a92_0100] Sure have! Just leave the business shit to me!
[a92_0100] We got that M&A magic! Ever heard of it?
[a92_0100] Nope! But that's our aniki!
[a92_0100] Strong as hell—and smart as shit, too!
[a92_0100] Damn right I am! Rate we're goin', it won't be long 'til I'm patriarch!
[a92_0100] Aw yeah! You got this, Aniki! By the way, can I be your captain when you make it big?
[a92_0100] Fuck no! Why would I pick you? Only man I want as my right-hand is Mine!
[a92_0100] Right, Brother!?
[a92_0100] Sorry? Oh, yes. Of course.
[a92_0100] What's eatin' ya, Mine? Someone pissed in your drink?
[a92_0100] ...No, nothing like that. Just lost in thought.
[a92_0100] There's been some pushback from the families we're buying out.
[a92_0100] Surprising, considering how much they'd benefit. We even offered to refine their modus operandi.
[a92_0100] Well, we are askin' 'em to stab their bosses right in the back.
[a92_0100] Takes balls to spit on that honor.
[a92_0100] This again..."Honor."
[a92_0100] Patriarch Furukane said the same thing.
[a92_0100] Listen good, Mine. When ya exchange cups with your patriarch, you form this bond.
[a92_0100] One even thicker than blood.
[a92_0100] One you'd be willin' to lay down your own life for, all for your boss.
[a92_0100] That's how we yakuza roll.
[a92_0100] You'd go that far for someone?
[a92_0100] Yeah. 'Course, there's more than the boss and underling.
[a92_0100] Ya got sworn brothers in the ranks, too.
[a92_0100] ...me and you.
[a92_0100] You consider us brothers?
[a92_0100] Did I stutter? We're ride or die, Mine.
[a92_0100] And ya know what that means?
[a92_0100] If shit hits the fan and I'm in a real bad spot...
[a92_0100] Ya stick your neck out for me.
[a92_0100] Of course. That goes without saying.
[a92_0100] C'mere, gorgeous! Body like yours'd melt like putty 'neath my hands!
[a92_0100] Easy there, big boy!
[a92_0100] Ohhh yeah, fuck yeah...
[a92_0100] I said, easy now!
[a92_0100] Just like, you know...
[a92_0100] Got it?
[a92_0200] You're still standin'?
[a92_0200] No shit. Didn't think you'd hold out this long.
[a92_0200] But we're just gettin' started! There's more where that came from—right, guys!?
[a92_0200] What's in the briefcase, pal? Sure seems important. Lemme guess...
[a92_0200] Is it money?
[a92_0200] And judging by the size, I'd say it's about 50 million.
[a92_0200] Got 'im. It's all over your face, dumbass.
[a92_0200] Leave the briefcase.
[a92_0200] Unfortunately, I find that small-time thugs like you are a poor investment.
[a92_0200] You're simply not worth the money.
[a92_0200] All right. Hard bargain.
[a92_0200] Die then!
[a92_0200] Miiineeeeeeeee!!!
[a92_0200] Huh?
[a92_0200] Get the hell away from my brother, ya hear meee!?
[a92_0200] Kanda-san?
[a92_0200] What the hell's wrong with him!?
[a92_0200] Shit, watch out—!
[a92_0200] Mine, you alive!?
[a92_0200] Kanda-san? Why are you...?
[a92_0200] No time! Get your ass in here!
[a92_0200] I— Right!
[a92_0200] Stop them! Shoot!
[a92_0200] You do that, you get to walk away. Sound like a deal?
[a92_0300] Hangin' in there, Mine?
[a92_0300] Yes, I'm fine—thanks to you.
[a92_0300] Yeah? Good, good.
[a92_0300] Couldn't sit still when you never showed. Good thing I went lookin' for ya.
[a92_0300] Hey, Mine... Ya sure you're okay? Been real quiet this whole time.
[a92_0300] Yes, I'm just... rather surprised.
[a92_0300] I didn't expect you to rush to my rescue.
[a92_0300] 'Course I would!
[a92_0300] I said it before—we're sworn brothers, me 'n' you. Ride or die.
[a92_0300] I ain't full of hot air, ya know?
[a92_0300] Kanda-san... Thank you. I mean it.
[a92_0300] By the way, ya still got the cash, right?
[a92_0300] Hm? Oh, yes.
[a92_0300] Gotcha, gotcha.
[a92_0300] What's with the face? Money's safe, you're safe. All's good, yeah?
[a92_0300] Yes... I suppose so.
[a92_0300] Forget it. Anyway, I got a question for ya, Mine.
[a92_0300] What is it?
[a92_0300] You haven't been callin' me your aniki this whole time. When are ya gonna start?
[a92_0300] Hm?
[a92_0300] A! Ni! Ki!
[a92_0300] If you insist. That, I can do...
[a92_0300] ...Kanda-aniki.
[a92_0300] The tribute money. I have it right here.
[a92_0300] Now you try! Ain't that hard to say.
[a92_0400] Aniki! Congrats on your promotion! 'Bout time they made you captain!
[a92_0400] Damn right! From now on, call me Cap, numbskulls!
[a92_0400] Yessir, Cap!
[a92_0400] This family's only swimmin' in gold 'cause of me!
[a92_0400] Ya hear me? So y'all better be grateful I got outta the damn clink!
[a92_0400] Sure are, Cap! You saved our asses!
[a92_0400] Well, Lieutenant? How's it feel? We're movin' up in the world!
[a92_0400] I wouldn't have gotten this far without you, Kanda-aniki.
[a92_0400] What's with these chumps? Lights out already?
[a92_0400] You'd think they'd be more respectful to their superior... Hey!
[a92_0400] Leave it. S'all good.
[a92_0400] But, Aniki...
[a92_0400] 'Sides, I wanted to have a little man-to-man.
[a92_0400] You want to talk?
[a92_0400] What are you doing?
[a92_0400] Bro, don't be an asshole about it— just shut up and take it!
[a92_0400] Please.
[a92_0400] ...What?
[a92_0400] At a loss for words, ain'tcha? I get it. I'd be too if someone gave me that golden ticket.
[a92_0400] Hell, I'd be out the damn door by now. It's killin' me to even give it away.
[a92_0400] But that's exactly why I wanted you to have it! 'Cause you're special to me, buddy!
[a92_0400] Right...
[a92_0400] Y'know, Mine... If I'd never met ya, I bet I'd still be some no-name, two-bit thug.
[a92_0400] I wouldn't be here without ya. Thanks, man.
[a92_0400] Think nothing of it. I only offered you what support I am able.
[a92_0400] Heh, humble as ever, bro. Never change.
[a92_0400] But, to tell ya the truth, I ain't stoppin' here.
[a92_0400] As in, becoming patriarch?
[a92_0400] Nah, that's just the beginnin'.
[a92_0400] You gotta think even bigger, man. Higher.
[a92_0400] My real goal's... becomin' seventh chairman of the Tojo Clan!
[a92_0400] Ambitious...
[a92_0400] Sure am. Gotta be. Dojima Junior's got no right sittin' on top.
[a92_0400] I'd be a better fit for the job. Don'tcha think so? Don'tcha, Mine?
[a92_0400] ...Yes, you could be.
[a92_0400] And once I'm chairman, I'll make ya captain of the whole Tojo Clan!
[a92_0400] 'Cause the two of us? We're brothers for life!
[a92_0400] We certainly do. I look forward to our continued partnership.
[a92_0400] "Brothers for life," he said...
[a92_0400] And earnestly, too. The sentiment was so genuine...
[a92_0400] I felt moved by his words.
[a92_0400] Now's as good a time as any.
[a92_0400] I got bigger goals.
[a92_0400] Kanda-aniki.
[a92_0400] We got a bright future ahead of us, Mine!
[a92_0400] "Bath Ticket — 60 Minutes Free"
[a92_0600] Come in.
[a92_0600] Pardon me, sir.
[a92_0600] So you're Mine.
[a92_0600] Rumor says you're quite talented.
[a92_0600] You used to run a startup, didn't you?
[a92_0600] Yes. I founded the company and served as chairman.
[a92_0600] Impressive.
[a92_0600] It's good to have people of different backgrounds. I hope you'll bring some fresh ideas to the table.
[a92_0600] ...It'd be an honor to.
[a92_0600] I admit, I am curious...
[a92_0600] ...why a man of your stature would join the yakuza.
[a92_0600] Well, I...
[a92_0600] You don't have to indulge me, of course.
[a92_0600] ...Of course.
[a92_0600] There's something I'm searching for, and I thought perhaps I could find it here.
[a92_0600] Now I'm even more curious.
[a92_0600] Well? Have you found it?
[a92_0600] In a sense.
[a92_0600] You could say I'm trying to determine if what I found is what I wanted.
[a92_0600] To put it simply, I suppose.
[a92_0600] I hope it'll be worth it.
[a92_0600] Chairman Dojima, pardon my impertinence, but might I ask you a question?
[a92_0600] Go ahead.
[a92_0600] I heard that, before you became the chairman, you were just a civilian.
[a92_0600] I've been wondering... What is it that made you decide to give up that life and take on the mantle?
[a92_0600] At first... I wanted to live up to my predecessor's expectations. He did nominate me, after all.
[a92_0600] But, now... Well...
[a92_0600] You've changed?
[a92_0600] Just my priorities. Now I want to protect my family.
[a92_0600] Your family... the Tojo Clan?
[a92_0600] Who else?
[a92_0600] Our men are the outcasts of society. They are those who've chosen to walk the wrong path.
[a92_0600] Myself included.
[a92_0600] They've come together because they need a place to belong.
[a92_0600] And I want to protect that place for them.
[a92_0600] That is why I'm still standing here today.
[a92_0600] That's also why... I can't turn a blind eye to your recent actions, Mine.
[a92_0600] ...By which you mean?
[a92_0600] Fighting our own, spilling their blood— that goes against our creed.
[a92_0600] There's no excuse for encroaching on your own allies' turf.
[a92_0600] You may be right. My actions may be dishonorable...
[a92_0600] But you can't deny that the Tojo Clan as a whole benefits from our family's increase in profit.
[a92_0600] Surely, a few sacrifices are a worthwhile trade for the prosperity of the greater whole?
[a92_0600] That's where I disagree.
[a92_0600] There are no small sacrifices. They always come at too high a price.
[a92_0600] So, from now on, keep yourself in check.
[a92_0600] Understood, Chairman Dojima.
[a92_0600] Rest assured, I will take your warning to heart.
[a92_0600] Good. I hope you do.
[a92_0600] Then, please, excuse me.
[a92_0600] I was disappointed.
[a92_0600] All he had to offer were age-old platitudes about family and comradery.
[a92_0600] And the men who bought into those empty words died a dog's death so that he could live on.
[a92_0600] In the end...
[a92_0600] I've heard a lot about you.
[a92_0600] But as of now...
[a92_0600] People are all the same.
[a92_0700] Hey! What's the big idea!?
[a92_0700] Shut up!
[a92_0700] Watch it, asshole! What if ya actually hit me!?
[a92_0700] Aniki!
[a92_0700] Mine! This guy fired at me outta nowhere!
[a92_0700] Things just had to get more complicated...
[a92_0700] What a fuckin' pain...
[a92_0700] Now, come on out!
[a92_0700] Kill 'em both!
[a92_0700] What happened—
[a92_0800] Is it over...?
[a92_0800] Fuckin' rat bastard!
[a92_0800] Hey! Who sent ya!? Spill!
[a92_0800] No way...
[a92_0800] Feel like talkin' now!?
[a92_0800] Or do I need to tear ya a new one!?
[a92_0800] It was your own damn boss! He sent me!
[a92_0800] Wh— Ikari!? He's the one behind this?
[a92_0800] You heard me. The acting patriarch of the Nishikiyama Family gave the order himself.
[a92_0800] That motherfucker...
[a92_0800] That's why he did it.
[a92_0800] All he has is his title. His own earnings, like his achievements, don't amount to much at all.
[a92_0800] You, on the other hand, rose through the ranks shortly after your release.
[a92_0800] I imagine he saw you as a threat to his claim.
[a92_0800] Damn him!
[a92_0800] Why am I not surprised? Yakuza cannot be trusted.
[a92_0800] They harp on about honor and comradery, but sacrifice their brothers to save their own skin.
[a92_0800] Mine... You... You ain't gonna turn on me, are ya?
[a92_0800] Of course not. I would never, Kanda-aniki.
[a92_0800] Even though we worked our asses off for this family!?
[a92_0900] Thank you for agreeing to meet with me.
[a92_0900] Well? What did you want to talk about?
[a92_0900] Something I found unsettling. I was attacked the other day.
[a92_0900] Were you targeting Kanda?
[a92_0900] I don't know what you mean...
[a92_0900] There's no point in playing dumb.
[a92_0900] I'm well aware you're not particularly fond of him.
[a92_0900] After all, his ambitions conflict with yours...
[a92_0900] Though I don't understand why I had to get caught up in your squabble.
[a92_0900] What are you getting at?
[a92_0900] To be honest, my patience has run thin after having to tolerate him all this time.
[a92_0900] He calls me his brother, but I know...
[a92_0900] I see Kanda's still as unpopular as ever.
[a92_0900] Did you truly expect otherwise, with that personality of his?
[a92_0900] As I said before, I would rather not get wrapped up in any danger due to my association with him.
[a92_0900] So, Acting Patriarch... That's why I have a proposal for you.
[a92_0900] How do you feel about a little collaborative work? The two of us could outmaneuver him.
[a92_0900] What do you have in mind?
[a92_0900] Killing him is off the table. The risks are far too many and far too high.
[a92_0900] No, all you need to do is earn more money than he does.
[a92_0900] Enough to demonstrate the patriarch's seat is yours.
[a92_0900] Easier said than done.
[a92_0900] So it may seem, but Kanda and I have been negotiating a certain deal...
[a92_0900] One that involves smuggling a hundred firearms into the country.
[a92_0900] A hundred!?
[a92_0900] Their value easily totals hundreds of millions of yen.
[a92_0900] Should you offer that as tribute, I guarantee you'll be made patriarch.
[a92_0900] Then you'd be free to do as you please with Kanda— expel him, disown him, I don't care.
[a92_0900] You certainly wouldn't be lacking for justification.
[a92_0900] In fact, you'd be doing us all a favor.
[a92_0900] Anyone ever told you you're one sly fox, Mine?
[a92_0900] I'll take that as a compliment.
[a92_0900] Almost feel bad for that poor son of a bitch!
[a92_0900] It's what he gets for biting the hand that feeds, though!
[a92_0900] Fuck it! I'm in!
[a92_0900] I'm done being acting patriarch! It was a shit job, anyway!
[a92_0900] Getting rid of that asshole Kanda is just the damn cherry on top!
[a92_0900] You know, you're an all right guy, Mine. Where ya been my whole life!? Could always use a brain like yours on my side!
[a92_0900] It'd be an honor... Just one thing.
[a92_0900] This is our little secret. As far as anyone's concerned, we never met.
[a92_0900] He only wants me around to maintain his bottom line.
[a92_1000] Mine... Kanda hasn't caught wind of this, has he?
[a92_1000] Not at all. I told him this transaction would take place next week.
[a92_1000] By the time he hears about this, it'll be too late to act.
[a92_1000] Great.
[a92_1000] That's them.
[a92_1000] ...The cash?
[a92_1000] Right here.
[a92_1000] Goods are in the truck.
[a92_1000] We'll inspect them first.
[a92_1000] This... This is incredible!
[a92_1000] Well done, Mine!
[a92_1000] We're done here.
[a92_1000] Yes. Pleasure doing business with you.
[a92_1000] We hit the jackpot!
[a92_1000] Well, how does everything look, sir?
[a92_1000] A hundred guns, all accounted for! Now we just have to sell 'em...
[a92_1000] Excellent.
[a92_1000] And right on time, too.
[a92_1000] Hm? You already found us some buyers or something?
[a92_1000] It's hard to believe you're this gullible.
[a92_1000] What?
[a92_1000] Freeze! Police!
[a92_1000] Huh?
[a92_1000] Thank you for your assistance. Now, if you'll excuse me...
[a92_1000] ...'Course.
[a92_1000] Hey, Mine!
[a92_1000] Is something the matter?
[a92_1000] It's only natural for a concerned citizen to report a crime they witnessed, isn't it?
[a92_1000] A what!?
[a92_1000] Mine, is this... Was this all a trap!?
[a92_1000] I don't know what you mean.
[a92_1000] Shit!
[a92_1000] You ain't lockin' me up!
[a92_1000] Hold it!
[a92_1100] Shit...! Shit...!
[a92_1100] Hey now. Where do ya think you're goin'?
[a92_1100] Kanda...!
[a92_1100] You got any idea how much effort it took to round up a hundred guns?
[a92_1100] Damn near impossible. Couldn't have done it without pullin' some strings.
[a92_1100] Kanda, you fuck... You were in on this, too!? You two set me up!
[a92_1100] Well, no shit, dumbass.
[a92_1100] Mine got no clout in the underworld, and he definitely got no in with the cops, either.
[a92_1100] And that's where I come in. Plan was all him. I just lent him a hand.
[a92_1100] Mm! Love me some revenge.
[a92_1100] Well, Ikari... Thanks for all you've done for the family. I'll make sure to take good care of the boys.
[a92_1100] Now piss off.
[a92_1100] The cops are after your ass! Why the fuck would I shoot ya!?
[a92_1100] Did ya shit your pants?
[a92_1100] I'll kill you...!
[a92_1100] That's enough, Acting Patriarch.
[a92_1100] Mine!
[a92_1100] There's nothing left that you can do.
[a92_1100] So why don't you accept your defeat gracefully?
[a92_1100] Damn you! You've got some nerve!
[a92_1100] I take it that's a no.
[a92_1100] I'll handle this, Aniki.
[a92_1100] There's no need for you to dirty your hands with the likes of him.
[a92_1100] Yeah, would rather dirty 'em on someone prettier.
[a92_1100] You fuckin' assholes...
[a92_1100] I'll end you both—startin' with you, Mine!
[a92_1100] How's it feel to get fucked?
[a92_1200] Nice pass, Mine!
[a92_1200] Nothin' to it—huh, Mine!?
[a92_1200] Agreed.
[a92_1200] There he is!
[a92_1200] Up! Let's go.
[a92_1200] And let you take me in!? To hell with that!
[a92_1200] Hey! Don't do anything stupid!
[a92_1200] Oh shit!
[a92_1200] Get back here!
[a92_1200] Let him go. He has nowhere to turn.
[a92_1200] Not after shooting a police officer. He's done for.
[a92_1200] Yeah, fair 'nough.
[a92_1200] Hey, buddy, you still with us?
[a92_1300] It was unfortunate we had to sacrifice the arms deal, but I say we walked away with something more valuable.
[a92_1300] Seizing one hundred illicit firearms is no small feat for the police. Now they're in our debt.
[a92_1300] More importantly...
[a92_1300] We got rid of one major pain in the ass.
[a92_1300] All thanks to your cooperation, Kanda-aniki.
[a92_1300] Damn right.
[a92_1300] But I stuck it out.
[a92_1300] Thanks, Mine. For standin' by me instead of that dick Ikari. I 'preciate it, I really do.
[a92_1300] Kanda-aniki...
[a92_1300] Seriously, me 'n' you? We're brothers for life.
[a92_1300] Two of us'll take over the Tojo Clan, easy!
[a92_1300] Of course. I'll stand by you until the very end.
[a92_1300] Aniki.
[a92_1300] I can't deny that the man's a fool and a brute...
[a92_1300] Were I to remain with him, I'd likely discover a new calling in life...
[a92_1300] At least, I had hoped so.
[a92_1300] Only pulled through 'cause I believed in your plan—in you, Brother.
[a92_1300] But...
[a92_1300] Gotta admit, things were lookin' pretty dicey. Had me sweatin' for a sec.
[a93_0100] Alright, boys!
[a93_0100] Asses tight? Teeth clenched?
[a93_0100] Yes, boss! Ready, boss!
[a93_0100] Rise! And! Shine! You! Mother!
[a93_0100] Fuckers!
[a93_0100] Hey, Mine! Don't dodge!
[a93_0100] Kanda-aniki. Must we repeat this every single morning?
[a93_0100] 'Course we do! Gotta slap you awake myself, ya know?
[a93_0100] Well, boys—get out there and make some cash!
[a93_0100] Show 'em what it means to fuck with the Nishikiyama Family!
[a93_0100] Yessir!
[a93_0100] After Kanda-aniki's rise to power, the Nishikiyama Family continued to tread a path of violence and bloodshed.
[a93_0100] Obviously, external entities were their main target, but they'd readily go after their own if it meant putting more money in their pockets.
[a93_0100] All I had to do was point them in the direction of their next prey.
[a93_0100] Naturally, the family began rolling in money.
[a93_0100] With some grievances...
[a93_0100] After all, His Highness would never condone our methods.
[a93_0100] No mercy to any sorry shits who get in your way!
[a93_0100] Sniffing out wasted potential was no hard ask.
[a93_0200] Chairman Dojima. Did you need something?
[a93_0200] Don't play coy with me. You know why I called you here.
[a93_0200] Kanda might be taking all the credit for the racket, but you're the one pulling the strings, aren't you?
[a93_0200] Oh no, nothing of the sort.
[a93_0200] And despite my previous warning, you've shown no signs of remorse or backtracking.
[a93_0200] Mine...
[a93_0200] This ends now—or I'll be forced to resort to more drastic measures.
[a93_0200] Understood...
[a93_0200] I assure you, Chairman, I do take your words seriously.
[a93_0200] I'll hold you to that. But, Mine, the infighting isn't my only concern.
[a93_0200] I'm worried about your safety.
[a93_0200] My safety?
[a93_0200] And Kanda's. Your approach may have worked out so far, but now you've made enemies out of your allies.
[a93_0200] Haven't you experienced your fair share of backlash by now?
[a93_0200] If you keep this up, you might get yourself killed one day—you know that, right, Mine?
[a93_0200] I am well aware of the danger.
[a93_0200] But it's been my understanding that a certain degree of violence is inevitable in this line of work.
[a93_0200] And that doesn't disturb you? Hard to believe you were just a civilian not too long ago.
[a93_0200] But you're not wrong. One thing I've come to realize...
[a93_0200] The moment you drop your guard, you'll find a knife in your back.
[a93_0200] And the culprit may well be someone you might have once called a friend.
[a93_0200] This coming from the man who considers his subordinates to be his family?
[a93_0200] I may be new to this role, but I've been around long enough to know the cold reality of our world.
[a93_0200] And while I have no intention of averting my eyes from the truth...
[a93_0200] Well, I see no reason for me to relinquish my ideals, either.
[a93_0200] Sure, my own men might betray me one day.
[a93_0200] Even so, that doesn't make them any less family to me.
[a93_0200] At least... from my perspective.
[a93_0200] Isn't it normal for family to quarrel every now and then?
[a93_0200] You keep prattling on and on, but all I hear are platitudes.
[a93_0200] Excuse me. I'll take my leave now.
[a93_0200] What the hell's with him...?
[a93_0200] ...is that this world is a nest of vipers.
[a93_0200] Again, I'll keep your warning in mind.
[a93_0200] This is your last chance.
[a93_0200] Come in.
[a93_0300] Man, can't wait to shove this in front of their faces.
[a93_0300] Indeed. I look forward to Chairman Dojima's reaction.
[a93_0300] Oh yeah.
[a93_0300] What's happened!?
[a93_0300] In front of us! Look!
[a93_0300] The fuck's goin' on!?
[a93_0300] Damn it, just floor it!
[a93_0300] Drive. Nice and slow. Unless you're itching for another bullet?
[a93_0300] Don't just do what he says, dumbass!
[a93_0300] Mow him down and get us outta here!
[a93_0300] I can't, they're gonna kill us!
[a93_0300] Good man. That'll be all.
[a93_0300] Out.
[a93_0300] How's it feel to get fucked?
[a93_0300] Been a while, Kanda.
[a93_0300] Ikari...
[a93_0300] The hell? How...?
[a93_0300] You must be runnin' around town like the rat fuck you are! The cops'll nab your ass soon enough!
[a93_0300] Maybe. But enough money can solve any problem. Speaking of which...
[a93_0300] I know you've got the tribute payment for HQ with you.
[a93_0300] And it's a fairly hefty sum, too, isn't it?
[a93_0300] That's my ticket out of here. Hand it over.
[a93_0300] Like hell we will! This here's my ticket to becomin' a Tojo Clan lieutenant!
[a93_0300] Well... I tried askin' nicely.
[a93_0300] Guess that means we'll have to do this the hard way, then.
[a93_0300] Who the hell are these fuckers?
[a93_0300] Folks with a bone to pick with you. They just kept crawlin' outta the woodwork, you know?
[a93_0300] But we'd hate to send you two off so soon.
[a93_0300] How 'bout a taste of hell on earth before we bury ya six feet under?
[a93_0300] Give 'em a treat, boys!
[a93_0300] Once he sees all this cash, he'll be kissin' our asses.
[a93_0300] You too... Mine.
[a93_0300] Sound good?
[a93_0400] That's it, Kanda? C'mon, look alive!
[a93_0400] Aniki! Watch out!
[a93_0400] Mine!?
[a93_0400] Aniki... We're vastly outnumbered.
[a93_0400] Use the seven hundred million... and convince them to spare us...
[a93_0400] What're ya sayin'!? That's my money!
[a93_0400] It's not worth dying for. Long as we survive, we can earn it back.
[a93_0400] And how long will that take, huh!?
[a93_0400] That money'll net me a spot at the top of the damn food chain!
[a93_0400] It's for our lives!
[a93_0400] Mine. Brothers look out for each other, right?
[a93_0400] Huh?
[a93_0400] You're one hell of a guy, ya know. Pulled the family right out of the shitter.
[a93_0400] Thanks to you, we can stand on our own.
[a93_0400] But now... we don't need ya around anymore.
[a93_0400] Kanda-aniki...?
[a93_0400] Nothin' personal, Mine! But I'm tradin' ya for the money! Take one for the team, will ya!?
[a93_0400] The hell!? Get back here!
[a93_0400] After him! Now!
[a93_0400] He just—
[a93_0400] Shit! Kanda, you son of a bitch!
[a93_0400] Shame we lost the money...
[a93_0400] Workin' up a sweat.
[a93_0400] Might not be seven hundred mil richer, but I'm startin' to feel as cheery as can be.
[a93_0400] How 'bout you, Mine?
[a93_0400] ...Any last words?
[a93_0400] No? None at all?
[a93_0400] Nothing in this world...
[a93_0400] Stop!
[a93_0400] Mine!
[a93_0400] Chairman... Dojima...?
[a93_0400] What is this?
[a93_0400] Why are you here...?
[a93_0400] Kanda showed up late to the officers' meeting. He was acting odd the whole time, so I made him 'fess up.
[a93_0400] He spilled everything—about the ambush and the incident that started all this.
[a93_0400] And? What're you angling for, Sixth Chairman?
[a93_0400] Ikari. Do you mind letting Mine go?
[a93_0400] Why? After all he's done?
[a93_0400] Not for free, of course. How does one billion yen sound?
[a93_0400] A billion!?
[a93_0400] Use it to aid in your escape, if you like. Weren't you hurting financially?
[a93_0400] How? Where did you get that money...?
[a93_0400] Tribute payments. I convinced the officers to use it as ransom.
[a93_0400] They were none too happy, of course.
[a93_0400] What a mess. Looks like we'll have our work cut out for us in the days ahead.
[a93_0400] Check. Should all be there.
[a93_0400] Now I've hit the jackpot!
[a93_0400] It's all yours—if you forget about Mine. Deal?
[a93_0400] Chairman Dojima, I will gladly take the money...
[a93_0400] But the thing is...
[a93_0400] This piece of shit ruined my whole fuckin' life!
[a93_0400] I'm on the run for murder all 'cause of him! My wife and kids walked out on me!
[a93_0400] Only way to make things right is to get rid of the damn bastard!
[a93_0400] Rot in hell, Mine!
[a93_0400] No!
[a93_0400] You protected me!?
[a93_0400] Mine! Are you hurt?
[a93_0400] Shit... Oh shit... I... I shot the chairman...
[a93_0400] Shit! I'll just have to get rid of everyone here!
[a93_0400] Hey, scumbag...
[a93_0400] Do you have any fucking idea what you just did!?
[a93_0400] I ain't givin' it out for free!
[a93_0400] They protect one another.
[a93_0400] What are you saying?
[a93_0400] Why!? How could he...?
[a93_0400] 'Least I can make you pay for it.
[a93_0400] Fine by me.
[a93_0400] ...is real.
[a93_0400] You're alive... Glad I made it in time.
[a93_0400] But your life is worth more than any sum.
[a93_0400] See you in hell.
[a93_0500] Shit...
[a93_0500] Chairman Dojima!
[a93_0500] Mine... Are you okay?
[a93_0500] I'm fine.
[a93_0500] I'm just glad... you're safe.
[a93_0500] Chairman... Why did you do that?
[a93_0500] You know... you're a real bad listener.
[a93_0500] Don't make me repeat myself...
[a93_0500] How many times do I have to tell you? We're family. Got that?
[a93_0500] Fortunately, Daigo-san's wound wasn't fatal.
[a93_0500] As for me... I caught a glimpse of the light.
[a93_0500] One I found almost too strong to bear.
[a93_0500] That overwhelming radiance was none other than Daigo Dojima.
[a93_0500] But we need to get you an ambulance!
[a93_0600] Good seeing you, sir!
[a93_0600] Why, you're certainly early today, Kanda-aniki.
[a93_0600] Mine!
[a93_0600] Looks like you're doin' alright! Didn't hear back from ya after all that. What happened?
[a93_0600] Been worried sick 'bout ya, Brother!
[a93_0600] Oh yes, thank you for what you did back then.
[a93_0600] Huh?
[a93_0600] You pretended to flee so that you could inform HQ that I was in danger, didn't you?
[a93_0600] Uh, yeah! Sure did!
[a93_0600] That's my bro! Smart as hell!
[a93_0600] ...Incidentally, there's something I want your opinion on.
[a93_0600] Oh yeah? Well, ask away, Brother! I'm all ears!
[a93_0600] Perfect. Then let's discuss where I'll go from here.
[a93_0600] Got it in one, Mine! Glad ya understand!
[a93_0700] A little while later...
[a93_0700] The Hakuho Clan, hm?
[a93_0700] It's a good name.
[a93_0700] I'm honored you think so, Chairman.
[a93_0700] To be honest, I'm surprised Kanda even let you start your own family.
[a93_0700] And truth be told, he was rather conflicted on the matter.
[a93_0700] Although considering his personality, he'll likely continue treating me as one of his subordinates.
[a93_0700] I hope he doesn't get too carried away, then.
[a93_0700] As do I...
[a93_0700] That said, are you sure this is all right?
[a93_0700] What do you mean?
[a93_0700] Making me chairman of a direct subsidiary.
[a93_0700] Isn't it too soon for that? I'm still new to this business.
[a93_0700] If you're new, what does that make me?
[a93_0700] ...My apologies.
[a93_0700] I didn't make my decision lightly, you know? You've contributed plenty to the Tojo Clan.
[a93_0700] Also... You have a tendency to walk right into danger.
[a93_0700] Better to keep you at my side—where you'll be safe.
[a93_0700] Oh, I...
[a93_0700] I'm very sorry about that. I'll be more vigilant in the future.
[a93_0700] More importantly, are you sure about this?
[a93_0700] There's still time for you to turn back.
[a93_0700] This path... It's not one you should tread if you can avoid it.
[a93_0700] I know...
[a93_0700] But I've made up my mind.
[a93_0700] I won't turn back. Not after I've finally found it—
[a93_0700] what I've been searching for.
[a93_0700] You're certain.
[a93_0700] Then it's settled. We'll swear an oath, you and me.
[a93_0700] It would be an honor, Chairman.
[a93_0700] Well then! Time to go.
[a93_0700] Are you going somewhere?
[a93_0700] We're going somewhere. If you're not busy right now—are you?
[a93_0700] No, my calendar's clear. Why—
[a93_0700] Excellent. Let's go.
[a93_0800] Two of the usual, please. At least for now.
[a93_0800] Coming up.
[a93_0800] I take it you come here often?
[a93_0800] I do. It's nice here, cozy.
[a93_0800] Plus, he keeps the good stuff stocked.
[a93_0800] Happy to hear it.
[a93_0800] Here you are, gentlemen.
[a93_0800] Thank you for everything, Chairman.
[a93_0800] I look forward to collaborating with you in the future.
[a93_0800] Future's sooner than you think.
[a93_0800] After all, this is our official ceremony.
[a93_0800] Wh— It is!?
[a93_0800] Yes, is there a problem?
[a93_0800] Well, it's just...
[a93_0800] Aren't you the chairman of the Tojo Clan?
[a93_0800] I expected something more solemn than... this.
[a93_0800] And I expected you to bring fresh ideas to the table.
[a93_0800] Forget about all those stuffy old rituals.
[a93_0800] But, Chairman...
[a93_0800] They'll just put people to sleep. It's fine, we don't need anything elaborate.
[a93_0800] Come on, Mine. Let's toast.
[a93_0800] You're quite pushy. Anyone ever tell you that?
[a93_0800] But you're right. This is good.
[a93_0800] Isn't it?
[a93_0800] I should thank you for this chance to gather my thoughts.
[a93_0800] Oh? Something on your mind?
[a93_0800] Yes, well... I haven't had my back tattoo done yet.
[a93_0800] I wasn't sure what would suit me best.
[a93_0800] But now, I can't see it being anything else.
[a93_0900] The kirin...
[a93_0900] A sacred beast that only appears before a wise and benevolent king to become his shield.
[a93_0900] It heralds the rise of someone born with unparalleled talent.
[a93_0900] Though I wonder, will you become the king's loyal retainer... or his executioner?
[a93_0900] Only you can define your legacy.
[a93_0900] Just what burden do you intend to shoulder with this kirin?
[a93_0900] The answer should be obvious, sir.
[a93_0900] At that moment, I thought I had finally found it—my raison d'être...
[a93_0900] ...and my first genuine bond.
[a93_0900] All that I ever did and all I ever would do, I'd dedicate to Daigo Dojima.
[a93_0900] For as long as I drew breath.
[a93_0900] Yet despite my best efforts, I...
[a93_1000] How much longer until Touto Hospital?
[a93_1000] Ah, we're about fifteen minutes out, sir.
[a93_1000] That right?
[a93_1000] Mine speaking.
[a93_1000] It's me, Richardson. Are you in Tokyo right now?
[a93_1000] I am. I just got back from Okinawa.
[a93_1000] As per your information, I'm en route to Touto Hospital, where Chairman Dojima is.
[a93_1000] All right. And you know what to do once you're there?
[a93_1000] Of course.
[a93_1000] I'll take his life with my own two hands.
[a93_1000] Then I will succeed the Tojo Clan and take over the Okinawa deal.
[a93_1000] Don't worry, you'll get what you want.
[a93_1000] Excellent.
[a93_1000] Though I am concerned whether or not you really can go through with this.
[a93_1000] And why's that?
[a93_1000] I know your admiration for Daigo Dojima runs deep.
[a93_1000] Far deeper than for anyone else.
[a93_1000] What if you have a little change of heart when you face him for the last time?
[a93_1000] You're not truly alive when you're wasting the rest of your days confined to a bed.
[a93_1000] So I'll put an end to this farce myself.
[a93_1000] That's all there is to it.
[a93_1000] Um, Chairman Mine?
[a93_1000] What?
[a93_1000] Are you really going to kill Chairman Dojima?
[a93_1000] We all know how much you care about him.
[a93_1000] Can you bring yourself to do it after seeing him again?
[a93_1000] Enough.
[a93_1000] Sorry, sir...
[a93_1000] Stop the car.
[a93_1000] Sir? But we're not at the hospital yet.
[a93_1000] And? I said to stop.
[a93_1000] ...To think that we'd drive past this place.
[a93_1000] Wait for me here.
[a93_1100] Welcome—
[a93_1100] Well, look who it is! Please.
[a93_1100] It has been some time, hasn't it?
[a93_1100] Rare for you to come here by yourself, Mine-san.
[a93_1100] You and Chairman Dojima always came as a set.
[a93_1100] I just happened to be in the area, so I thought to swing by.
[a93_1100] I could use somewhere calm to sit and clear my head.
[a93_1100] I imagine so...
[a93_1100] I hear the Tojo Clan's had a hard time since the sixth chairman was shot.
[a93_1100] Please, make yourself at home.
[a93_1100] How about your usual? Bourbon, right?
[a93_1100] Yes, thank you. I'll gladly take a glass.
[a93_1100] Coming right up.
[a93_1100] Didn't realize how badly I needed that.
[a93_1100] How is the chairman doing? All right, I hope?
[a93_1100] No... He's not. He hasn't woken up since the day he was shot.
[a93_1100] I'm sorry to hear that.
[a93_1100] I hope he makes a swift recovery...
[a93_1100] So you two can share another drink someday.
[a93_1100] Thank you for this. Really.
[a93_1100] I needed some time to settle my nerves.
[a93_1100] I'll be on my way now...
[a93_1100] Wait, Mine-san, before you go—
[a93_1100] There's something I need to show you.
[a93_1100] For me?
[a93_1100] In a way. Chairman Dojima brought this to me a while back and requested that I hold on to it.
[a93_1100] Why would he do that?
[a93_1100] Well, would you care to guess what he told me when he handed it over?
[a93_1100] "I got my hands on some fine booze, so I want to save it for the next time I come here with Mine."
[a93_1100] That man really does consider everyone in the Tojo Clan his own flesh and blood.
[a93_1100] Even when he comes to drink alone, the only thing he talks about is his men.
[a93_1100] How they make him worry, how they make him proud...
[a93_1100] Your name, might I mention, came up more frequently than others.
[a93_1100] And... may I ask what he had to say about me when it did?
[a93_1100] Things like, "How can I get Mine to open up to me?" and "Isn't Mine kind of reckless with his money?"
[a93_1100] You were always of foremost concern.
[a93_1100] That said, he also mentioned that there's no one in the Tojo Clan he trusts more than you.
[a93_1100] I doubt I'd ever forget that.
[a93_1100] The chairman really said that...?
[a93_1100] I know things seem hopeless now, but I'm confident Chairman Dojima will wake up one day.
[a93_1100] He'll come back to us, won't he, Mine-san?
[a93_1100] What?
[a93_1100] Kiryu-san is on his way to the hospital!?
[a93_1100] Understood. I'll be there soon.
[a93_1100] Did something happen, Mine-san? You look rather unsettled.
[a93_1100] Thank you for indulging my curiosity. I'd stay longer...
[a93_1100] But I'm afraid it's time I get going.
[a93_1100] I'll be sure to stop by again.
[a93_1100] Unfortunately...
[a93_1100] I intend on shuttering this bar soon.
[a93_1100] Mind if I ask why?
[a93_1100] Truth be told, I haven't gotten much business lately, so I figured it was time to call it quits.
[a93_1100] I was hoping the chairman's bottle would be the last one I serve.
[a93_1100] So how about a glass? I know he'd want you to have at least one or two.
[a93_1100] ...I can't. Earlier, you said that the chairman wanted to share a drink with me, didn't you?
[a93_1100] It wouldn't be right to have it all to myself.
[a93_1100] Fair enough.
[a93_1100] That poses a bit of a problem, though... Just what am I going to do with this thing?
[a93_1100] About that...
[a93_1100] If you're interested, I have something of a proposition for you.
[a93_1100] A proposition...?
[a93_1200] Chairman, are you ready to go?
[a93_1200] Let's.
[a93_1200] This situation's not hopeless—I am. For clinging to the remnants of a dream.
[a93_1200] Chairman...?
[a93_1200] It's nothing.
[a93_1200] More importantly, Kazuma Kiryu is headed for Touto Hospital.
[a93_1200] I'll eliminate both him and Chairman Dojima in one fell swoop.
[a93_1200] Now drive.
[a93_1200] After that...
[a93_1200] I fought.
[a93_1200] So that I could settle things.
[a93_1200] But... what was I settling?
[a93_1200] Why was I even here?
[a93_1200] What was I fighting for?
[a93_1200] I... I wasn't certain where I stood anymore.
[a93_1200] Back then, would taking a different bet have led to a better outcome?
[a93_1200] Just where...
[a93_1200] Where did it all go wrong?
[a93_1300] Congratulations on your recovery, Chairman Dojima.
[a93_1300] Oh... Thanks.
[a93_1300] The car's waiting for you at the entrance.
[a93_1300] Right this way, sir.
[a93_1300] Touto University Medical Center
[a93_1400] Something on your mind, Chairman?
[a93_1400] You've been looking pretty down even though you just got out of the hospital.
[a93_1400] Are you feeling okay? Should we turn back?
[a93_1400] No, I'm fine... I just can't wrap my head around this.
[a93_1400] To think that Mine was behind everything. I still can't believe it.
[a93_1400] I understand, sir. I know it must be a bitter pill to swallow.
[a93_1400] After all, you trusted him, treated him like family.
[a93_1400] Despite that, he tried to kill you...
[a93_1400] In my opinion... that traitor got what he deserved.
[a93_1400] The Mine I knew may have been cold and calculating...
[a93_1400] but there was no mistaking the fire in his heart.
[a93_1400] For him to have done that, after all this time...
[a93_1400] It makes me question if I ever knew him... if I ever knew his true colors at all.
[a93_1400] Chairman...
[a93_1400] Sorry. I need a change in destination.
[a93_1400] Huh? But, sir, they're celebrating your discharge at HQ. Everyone's waiting for you.
[a93_1400] That's not a request. Right now, I'd rather drink alone.
[a93_1400] Just take me to the usual place.
[a93_1400] Understood. Whatever you say, Chairman.
[a93_1500] Long time no see. It's been a while.
[a93_1500] Chairman Dojima! Did you make a full recovery?
[a93_1500] Yeah, they discharged me not too long ago.
[a93_1500] So I figured I'd take it easy for a little bit.
[a93_1500] Should you really be drinking so soon after leaving the hospital?
[a93_1500] The booze you serve here is better medicine than the drugs they made me take there, believe me.
[a93_1500] What an honor. I presume it'll be the usual for you?
[a93_1500] Yeah, appreciate it.
[a93_1500] Now that's a good burn. Really hits the spot.
[a93_1500] Is something the matter?
[a93_1500] No, just... thinking about Mine.
[a93_1500] My condolences. I heard he's no longer with us.
[a93_1500] When I was laid up, I couldn't stop wondering...
[a93_1500] Just what kind of person was Mine? Who was he, really?
[a93_1500] I trusted him. He was family to me.
[a93_1500] But what was I to him? After all this time...
[a93_1500] I still don't have a damn clue.
[a93_1500] ...Chairman Dojima.
[a93_1500] To tell you the truth, Mine-san came here by himself shortly before his death.
[a93_1500] I... wasn't aware.
[a93_1500] He had a lot on his mind.
[a93_1500] The two of us talked briefly about how you saw the Tojo Clan as your family...
[a93_1500] And about this very bottle you brought here a while back.
[a93_1500] I remember. The one I wanted to share with him...
[a93_1500] Do you also remember how I told you that I was planning to close up shop?
[a93_1500] I do.
[a93_1500] But if I did that, I wouldn't be able to hold on to this for you.
[a93_1500] So the day Mine-san visited, I brought it out for him and asked if he'd like a glass.
[a93_1500] To my surprise... he turned down my offer.
[a93_1500] I told him you wanted to save it for the next time you came with him, but he thought it wouldn't be right to drink it alone.
[a93_1500] ...Typical Mine.
[a93_1500] While I was struggling to figure out what to do with this bottle, he made me a generous offer.
[a93_1500] He would buy up the bar and support it, and I would do whatever I can to keep it running.
[a93_1500] He did?
[a93_1500] He did. He told me he wanted to keep this place standing... because it's where you two last shared a drink.
[a93_1500] Mine really said that?
[a93_1500] Thank you for telling me. I think I needed to hear it.
[a93_1500] But... now that Mine's left us, will you be shutting down, after all?
[a93_1500] No, I don't think I will. I've had a change of heart.
[a93_1500] Oh?
[a93_1500] Well...
[a93_1500] You and Mine-san made your fair share of memories here. It wouldn't feel right to tear it down.
[a93_1500] I managed to find a bank to finance me, so I'll stay open for as long as I can.
[a93_1500] That's great...
[a93_1500] Really—thank you... Thank you, sir.
[a93_1500] Now, how about that bottle?
[a93_1500] Shall we pop it open and pour ourselves a glass?
[a93_1500] No... I would rather not.
[a93_1500] Not without Mine. Just keep it where it was. Please.
[a93_1500] I understand.
[a93_1500] Should've realized...
[a93_1500] He was the same man I always knew up to the very end.
[a93_1500] You... You were such a goddamn fool...
[a93_1500] Mine!
[a93_1600] As fate would have it... I didn't die.
[a93_1600] Yet, at the same time, I did.
[a93_1600] Yoshitaka Mine is dead.
[a93_1600] And me? I'm simply another man who erased his name.
[a93_1600] Nothing more.
[c98_0100] In December of 2005, I lost someone very precious to me.
[c98_0100] But now that I look back on that one day eleven years ago...
[c98_0100] Perhaps our fates had been sealed from the very start.
[c98_0100] Back when I was still a part of the Tojo Clan's Dojima Family,
[c98_0100] there were only three people in the world I would call my family.
[c98_0100] One was my best friend from the orphanage where we grew up, Akira Nishikiyama.
[c98_0100] Another was the man who took me in and raised me like his own son...
[c98_0100] Shintaro Kazama.
[c98_0100] And the last...
[c98_0100] ...was the childhood friend I had always loved.
[c98_0100] Yumi Sawamura.
[c98_0100] After having lost my parents at a young age...
[c98_0100] those three were the closest thing to a family I ever had.
[c98_0100] Until...
[c98_0100] I killed him...
[c98_0100] A direct...
[c98_0100] ...Tojo associate...
[c98_0100] One day, right before my eyes...
[c98_0100] ...was the lifeless body of the Dojima Family patriarch.
[c98_0100] He had tried to force himself on Yumi... and paid the price with his life.
[c98_0100] Yumi!
[c98_0100] Hey... Talk to me!
[c98_0100] Nishiki. Take Yumi and get out.
[c98_0100] But... What about you?
[c98_0100] Just go, Nishiki. Take care of Yumi.
[c98_0100] Go!
[c98_0100] I couldn't bear to lose either of them...
[c98_0100] So I did what I had to do.
[c98_0100] You may begin eating!
[c98_0100] I got ten years.
[c98_0100] While I did my time,
[c98_0100] I got word of my expulsion...
[c98_0100] ...and I found out that Yumi had disappeared.
[c98_0100] I was branded for patricide.
[c98_0100] When the Tojo clan cut me off,
[c98_0100] I felt like a kite without a string.
[c98_0100] Even so, there was someone on the outside who still remembered me.
[c98_0100] Kazama-san...
[c98_0100] The man I considered my father.
[c98_0100] When I made parole, I set out to find him.
[c98_0100] To reunite with him... and to learn about everything that happened during the ten years I spent in prison,
[c98_0100] I finally returned to Kamurocho.
[c98_0100] A lot had changed about the city.
[c98_0100] In the presence of all the direct clan patriarchs...
[c98_0100] Third Chairman, an inquiry...
[c98_0100] We all know that the clan's funds are held in the safety of Touto Bank...
[c98_0100] A sum of ten billion yen.
[c98_0100] Is it true then, that it was all stolen?
[c98_0100] My former friend had become an entirely different man.
[c98_0100] And every thug in town was on the trail of the missing ten billion yen.
[c98_0100] Kazama-san!
[c98_0100] A war of succession took root in the Tojo Clan,
[c98_0100] and I found myself caught up right in the middle of it.
[c98_0100] I placed my trust in Kazama-san...
[c98_0100] And went looking for Yumi. Somehow, she was connected to everything.
[c98_0100] But...
[c98_0100] I didn't find her.
[c98_0100] I found a little girl, all alone.
[c98_0100] Her name was Haruka.
[c98_0100] At the time, she was only nine years old.
[c98_0100] Yet this brave little girl had come to the city all by herself, determined to find her mother.
[c98_0100] We'd met by pure chance,
[c98_0100] but...
[c98_0100] As it just so happened, there was one thing we had in common.
[c98_0100] So what are you going to do now?
[c98_0100] All I have is my mom and my Aunt Yumi.
[c98_0100] Yumi?
[c98_0100] This girl, in search of her mother, knew Yumi, who I sought out.
[c98_0100] Rather than coincidence, perhaps it was fate that brought Haruka and I together in our search.
[c98_0100] However...
[c98_0100] We want the little girl ya got there.
[c98_0100] Huh!?
[c98_0100] Before we realized what was happening,
[c98_0100] the clan started chasing after Haruka,
[c98_0100] believing she was the key to the ten billion yen.
[c98_0100] Every day saw a new threat...
[c98_0100] I followed Yumi and the ten billion's trail
[c98_0100] while protecting Haruka the best I could.
[c98_0100] Along the way, in all of the chaos, I ended up crossing paths with a police detective.
[c98_0100] Makoto Date... Formerly a Division One cop.
[c98_0100] He'd interrogated me after I took the fall for my brother, and his life fell to pieces afterward.
[c98_0100] To put his career back on track, he asked for me to cooperate with his investigation.
[c98_0100] Kiryu, I'm currently investigating the murder of Third Chairman Sera.
[c98_0100] And you're gonna help.
[c98_0100] A former yakuza partnered with a cop on the same case...
[c98_0100] It made for an odd sight to say the least, but as time passed, we grew closer and became fast friends.
[c98_0100] But then...
[c98_0100] Kazuma Kiryu! You're under arrest for kidnapping!
[c98_0100] Sudo, the chief of Division One, closed in on us.
[c98_0100] Date-san.
[c98_0100] Hey. Sorry it took me this long.
[c98_0100] This is gonna be bad for you!
[c98_0100] Let's go, Kiryu!
[c98_0100] And although Date-san belonged to the police force,
[c98_0100] he ultimately chose Haruka and me over his own career.
[c98_0100] The closer we got to the truth,
[c98_0100] the more people stood in our way, hindering our investigation.
[c98_0100] A direct Tojo Clan patriarch after the ten billion, Futoshi Shimano.
[c98_0100] We meet again, Kiryu.
[c98_0100] As well as the man, who was the acting captain of the Shimano Family, Goro Majima.
[c98_0100] Yo, Kiryu-chan! Been looking for ya.
[c98_0100] Every fight against these hardened yakuza veterans...
[c98_0100] was even more fierce than the last.
[c98_0100] Even Sohei Dojima's widow, Yayoi, confronted me over the loss of her husband after his murder. And...
[c98_0100] Dojima's murderer... Was it you?
[c98_0100] The words she spoke to me that day weighed heavy on my heart.
[c98_0100] But through it all, some were steadfast in their support.
[c98_0100] Kazuki, the owner of Stardust, the host club...
[c98_0100] Yuya, a host who works there. Terada, from the Omi Alliance.
[c98_0100] The people Kazama-san led me to gave me the courage to press on.
[c98_0100] But there was one man in particular who would end up bringing Haruka and me closer to the truth.
[c98_0100] Kazuma Kiryu. Out on parole and raising hell already, eh?
[c98_0100] They called him the Florist of Sai.
[c98_0100] A legendary information dealer who worked in Kamurocho's underground.
[c98_0100] Here it is, Kiryu. Footage from Serena.
[c98_0100] His intelligence revealed that there was a mastermind controlling everything from the shadows.
[c98_0100] The Florist indicated it could belong to an underground government organization.
[c98_0100] So I looked into it, and he was on the mark. An underground organization of the Cabinet Office known as the "MIA."
[c98_0100] The Tojo Clan's missing ten billion...
[c98_0100] ...turned out to be the work of a single politician.
[c98_0100] His name was Kyohei Jingu.
[c98_0100] He had embezzled the missing ten billion yen through the Tojo Clan's reserves.
[c98_0100] And he would go on to use it as his source of income for years on end.
[c98_0100] To prevent Kyohei Jingu from gaining too much influence in the Tojo Clan, the ten billion yen was stolen yet again...
[c98_0100] And the people behind it...
[c98_0100] Kazuma. The ones who stole the money... were Yumi, me, and Sera.
[c98_0100] We had finally uncovered the truth behind the money...
[c98_0100] However...
[c98_0100] Haruka! Kazama-san!
[c98_0100] Kazama-san risked his own life to protect Haruka from Shimano. As he lay dying, he revealed the final piece of the puzzle.
[c98_0100] Your real parents... were killed by me.
[c98_0100] It's okay. It's okay, pops.
[c98_0100] To me... You were my...
[c98_0100] ...my true father!
[c98_0100] He confessed his long-held secret regarding my past, and then took his last breath.
[c98_0100] After finally learning the truth, Haruka and I picked up the money's trail and made our way out to the Millennium Tower.
[c98_0100] There, we found Yumi waiting for us.
[c98_0100] It turned out, the mother Haruka had been searching for... was Yumi all along.
[c98_0100] Though it was a joyful reunion...
[c98_0100] The happiness only lasted a moment before it all fell apart.
[c98_0100] What's that?
[c98_0100] Kyohei Jingu had returned, determined to take back his ten billion yen.
[c98_0100] He planned to cut ties with the Tojo Clan,
[c98_0100] join hands with the Omi Alliance from Kansai, and ultimately unite Japan's political and criminal worlds under his control.
[c98_0100] He sprung a trap on one of Kazama-san's ally,
[c98_0100] Terada, the Omi Chief of HQ.
[c98_0100] Then bared his fangs at us.
[c98_0100] However...
[c98_0100] Yumi!
[c98_0100] You wouldn't dare shoot me now.
[c98_0100] If this explodes, the ten billion in the bar will go up in smoke.
[c98_0100] Because of Yumi's courage risking her own life, and the ideals Kazama-san passed down to me...
[c98_0100] I am... the Tojo Clan's fourth chairman... Kazuma Kiryu!
[c98_0100] We were able to take down Jingu once and for all.
[c98_0100] But right when we thought everything was finally over...
[c98_0100] Who should walk in but him...
[c98_0100] Is it over? I guess now we can settle down.
[c98_0100] Nishiki...!
[c98_0100] Over the course of a decade, the two of us had both changed.
[c98_0100] Fighting was the only answer we had left...
[c98_0100] So, we fought.
[c98_0100] Kazama-san... Yumi... And Nishikiyama...
[c98_0100] I'd lost my entire family...
[c98_0100] ...as well as my hope for the future.
[c98_0100] Knock it off! Don't you have something left to fight for!?
[c98_0100] Don't you have someone precious to protect!? Don't run away.
[c98_0100] The only way I managed to escape that despair...
[c98_0100] was thanks to Date-san and Haruka.
[c98_0100] As for the succession of the Tojo Clan,
[c98_0100] I entrusted it to Terada, to uphold Kazama-san's ideals,
[c98_0100] and said farewell to the Tojo Clan.
[c98_0100] With my past behind me... I started a new life with Haruka.
[c98_0100] Please forgive me, Kazuma.
[c98_0100] Wh-What!?
[c98_0100] In the end, I watched my best friend give up his own life... to save me and Haruka.
[c98_0200] December, 2005.
[c98_0200] After the incident with the 10 billion yen...
[c98_0200] I started a new chapter of my life.
[c98_0200] Having left the Tojo Clan, I spent my days with Haruka in peace and quiet.
[c98_0200] We had our ups and downs, but we did our best to support each other.
[c98_0200] I couldn't take losing any more loved ones.
[c98_0200] Unfortunately, I couldn't give her the peaceful life we both wanted.
[c98_0200] Because when we visited the graves of our loved ones...
[c98_0200] ...the next chapter in our struggle began.
[c98_0200] I'm hoping to swear an oath with Chairman Goda of the Omi Alliance.
[c98_0200] An oath?
[c98_0200] After I stepped down, I appointed Terada as the Tojo Clan's fifth chairman.
[c98_0200] To avoid a war with the largest yakuza group in western Japan, the Omi Alliance,
[c98_0200] Terada was considering a truce and sought out my advice.
[c98_0200] Though he never got the chance to broker peace.
[c98_0200] Terada was shot.
[c98_0200] As he struggled to remain conscious...
[c98_0200] With his last breath, he asked me to carry out the truce with the Omi Alliance in his place.
[c98_0200] The Tojo Clan had grown weak,
[c98_0200] but Terada had been a beacon of hope.
[c98_0200] His loss could prove fatal for the organization.
[c98_0200] I was left with no choice, but to return to Kamurocho.
[c98_0200] And to protect the Tojo Clan, there was someone I had to meet with.
[c98_0200] He was a young man,
[c98_0200] and an active member of my former organization, the Dojima Family,
[c98_0200] as well as the only son of its patriarch, Sohei Dojima.
[c98_0200] His name was Daigo Dojima.
[c98_0200] Please, come back to the Tojo Clan.
[c98_0200] They need you.
[c98_0200] If negotiations with the Omi went sideways,
[c98_0200] I knew for a fact that I'd be a dead man.
[c98_0200] So I thought, if anything were to happen to me,
[c98_0200] the only one I'd trust to run the Tojo Clan...
[c98_0200] ...would be none other than Daigo.
[c98_0200] Aren't you the one who fucked it all up last year!?
[c98_0200] Yeah. That's why I'm back... To take responsibility for it!
[c98_0200] But...
[c98_0200] I need you to hold down the fort.
[c98_0200] No way. I'm coming with.
[c98_0200] What?
[c98_0200] Look, I've got a score to settle in Kansai.
[c98_0200] Daigo.
[c98_0200] Doesn't matter what you say.
[c98_0200] I don't even care if you stay or go.
[c98_0200] I'm going.
[c98_0200] And with that...
[c98_0200] Daigo and I left for Osaka to negotiate a truce
[c98_0200] between the Tojo Clan and the Omi.
[c98_0200] Sotenbori, Osaka.
[c98_0200] We were set to meet
[c98_0200] with the Omi Alliance chairman, Jin Goda.
[c98_0200] Then, in Osaka's red-light district...
[c98_0200] By a twist of fate, I encountered him...
[c98_0200] Hey! Let's get more ladies over here!
[c98_0200] Where's the fuckin' manager!?
[c98_0200] Careful! Don't make eye contact with 'em.
[c98_0200] He's a bigshot yakuza in these parts.
[c98_0200] A man named Ryuji Goda.
[c98_0200] Second chairman of the Go-Ryu Clan, a branch of the Omi Alliance.
[c98_0200] Also known as... the Dragon of Kansai.
[c98_0200] We only need one dragon in our world.
[c98_0200] Ain't room for more.
[c98_0200] Wouldn't ya say?
[c98_0200] ...Maybe so.
[c98_0200] Must be fate, eh?
[c98_0200] While I'm on a roll...
[c98_0200] Here's another hot tip.
[c98_0200] At midnight tonight...
[c98_0200] Kamurocho's gonna see the biggest damn fireworks show ever.
[c98_0200] Fireworks?
[c98_0200] Just as Ryuji said,
[c98_0200] that night the Kazama Family office in Kamurocho... had been bombed.
[c98_0200] This is it... The fireworks.
[c98_0200] By then it was clear—Ryuji Goda wanted war.
[c98_0200] But his father was different. Jin Goda approved of the truce between Tojo and Omi.
[c98_0200] But in doing so, he painted a target on his back.
[c98_0200] Ryuji!
[c98_0200] The Tojo and the Omi in a 50-50 alliance?
[c98_0200] Sure it ain't 80-20? Shit, more like 90-10?
[c98_0200] Why'd you come here?
[c98_0200] Ya don't belong amongst Omi officers!
[c98_0200] Do it!
[c98_0200] What're you doing!?
[c98_0200] Is that what you're after?
[c98_0200] A war?
[c98_0200] Sure is. The east versus the west.
[c98_0200] That's all I want...
[c98_0200] Well, that and one more thing.
[c98_0200] Me?
[c98_0200] Ryuji Goda was after two things.
[c98_0200] First, to control all of Japan through the Go-Ryu Clan.
[c98_0200] And the second... to fight and ultimately defeat me.
[c98_0200] The Dragon of Dojima.
[c98_0200] He was relentless on his warpath against the Tojo Clan,
[c98_0200] and went as far as to mutiny and kidnap his own father to stop the truce.
[c98_0200] Daigo and I worked together to rescue Chairman Goda
[c98_0200] and to take down Ryuji.
[c98_0200] On the way there...
[c98_0200] I encountered... an unexpected roadblock.
[c98_0200] Cuff anyone who's still here!
[c98_0200] Detective Kaoru Sayama, Osaka Police.
[c98_0200] You're under arrest...
[c98_0200] ...for assault.
[c98_0200] And that was how I met Kaoru Sayama, the Yakuza Huntress.
[c98_0200] The Omi Alliance's internal conflict in Osaka...
[c98_0200] The bombing in Kamurocho...
[c98_0200] Though two seemingly separate and distinct events,
[c98_0200] one detective was determined to uncover the missing link.
[c98_0200] Been a long damn time... Some 20-odd years?
[c98_0200] They call him "Killer Kawara,"
[c98_0200] for leaning on his gun during investigations.
[c98_0200] A dangerous man.
[c98_0200] And age had only made his wits sharper.
[c98_0200] He and his former partner, Date-san,
[c98_0200] were tasked with investigating an underground organization.
[c98_0200] And their target was none other...
[c98_0200] ...than the owner of the Stardust host club,
[c98_0200] Kazuki.
[c98_0200] At the time, I was still in Osaka.
[c98_0200] My hands forced, I cooperated with Sayama in her investigation.
[c98_0200] She took advantage of her authority as a police officer
[c98_0200] and kept me in custody
[c98_0200] while having me contact members of the Omi Alliance.
[c98_0200] She wanted information
[c98_0200] about the power struggle within the organization.
[c98_0200] But I soon found out...
[c98_0200] Sayama had an ulterior motive for approaching me.
[c98_0200] I've told ya plenty!
[c98_0200] They had nothin' to do with the yakuza!
[c98_0200] Then tell me!
[c98_0200] Who are my real parents!?
[c98_0200] This is goin' in circles...
[c98_0200] Say what ya want, I'm following Kazuma Kiryu.
[c98_0200] But why?
[c98_0200] Because he's Tojo, that's why.
[c98_0200] He is!?
[c98_0200] With him in my custody, I can get closer to the Tojo Clan.
[c98_0200] Whatever happened...
[c98_0200] I'll finally be close enough to dig it up.
[c98_0200] Her true intentions...
[c98_0200] ...were to get answers to the questions she had regarding her past.
[c98_0200] Who were her birth parents?
[c98_0200] And why did she have to lose them? Why were they killed?
[c98_0200] She suspected that the Tojo Clan were somehow involved, and in order to seek out the truth...
[c98_0200] She used me.
[c98_0200] Now it's making sense.
[c98_0200] Well, it's not like I can't sympathize.
[c98_0200] Huh?
[c98_0200] I had one too... A secret, I mean.
[c98_0200] Something in your past?
[c98_0200] Yeah... But when I learned the truth, it only brought me pain.
[c98_0200] I still wish I'd never found out.
[c98_0200] Isn't it possible that some secrets...
[c98_0200] ...are better off kept that way?
[c98_0200] Spoken like a man who knows his past.
[c98_0200] I guess that's fair.
[c98_0200] I knew how painful it is to lose your parents...
[c98_0200] ...and how hard it can be growing up an orphan.
[c98_0200] Maybe that was why I couldn't leave her well alone.
[c98_0200] I was drawn to her.
[c98_0200] Of course I'm scared...
[c98_0200] Scared to find out the truth.
[c98_0200] But it's fine.
[c98_0200] This is the road I've chosen.
[c98_0200] I see... Then use me how you can.
[c98_0200] Stay close, and go hard at the Tojo Clan.
[c98_0200] And if you had something to do with it?
[c98_0200] Then you point that thing at me, pull the trigger, and don't look back.
[c98_0200] You said you couldn't forgive anyone.
[c98_0200] Didn't you?
[c98_0200] Right... I'll do that.
[c98_0200] So there we were, a detective and a yakuza...
[c98_0200] We came to an understanding
[c98_0200] and teamed up for the sake of our goals.
[c98_0200] We pressed forward...
[c98_0200] despite knowing that the road ahead would only lead to tragedy.
[c98_0200] My search for Jin Goda brought me from east to west,
[c98_0200] and in the process, Sayama's past...
[c98_0200] began to unravel itself.
[c98_0200] Her investigation brought her closer to the truth,
[c98_0200] and brought to light her connection to an incident that occurred twenty years ago.
[c98_0200] And one that, as I found out,
[c98_0200] Kazama-san and I were involved in.
[c98_0200] Meanwhile, in Kamurocho...
[c98_0200] an organization sought revenge for what transpired twenty years ago and set their plans in motion.
[c98_0200] The Jingweon Mafia.
[c98_0200] A foreign crime syndicate
[c98_0200] forced out of Kamurocho by the Dojima Family.
[c98_0200] Their remnants had become desperate and began to move, thirsty for blood.
[c98_0200] But for twenty long years,
[c98_0200] Kawara-san had been keeping an eye on them,
[c98_0200] and when he became aware of their plans,
[c98_0200] he passed on the details to me and Sayama.
[c98_0200] We headed to the Millennium Tower to confront the Jingweon Mafia.
[c98_0200] There, we discovered the ringleader—Kurahashi,
[c98_0200] an active police chief.
[c98_0200] And in pursuit of revenge,
[c98_0200] both Kurahashi and Kawara-san died... by one another's hands.
[c98_0200] You saved me... Thank you.
[c98_0200] At least once in my life... I got to act like a father.
[c98_0200] This takes me back...
[c98_0200] Holding your hand...
[c98_0200] Dad...
[c98_0200] Thanks... kiddo.
[c98_0200] At last, Sayama learned the truth behind her past.
[c98_0200] As he lay dying,
[c98_0200] Kawara-san confessed that he was her biological father
[c98_0200] before closing his eyes, finally at peace.
[c98_0200] Meanwhile, the Dragon of Kansai made his move
[c98_0200] and threw down the gauntlet,
[c98_0200] declaring the site of what would be our final battle.
[c98_0200] So I put aside the tension between the Tojo Clan and the Omi Alliance, to do what needed to be done.
[c98_0200] I headed to where Ryuji was waiting for me
[c98_0200] so that we could finally settle things man to man.
[c98_0200] It's set! On the field of battle, the yakuza flower... Now in full bloom!
[c98_0200] But after our showdown, things took an unexpected turn...
[c98_0200] ...when he of all people walked in.
[c98_0200] Terada. A man I thought to have been dead.
[c98_0200] In that incident twenty years ago...
[c98_0200] Kazama-san had shown mercy
[c98_0200] and spared the lives of some members of the Jingweon Mafia.
[c98_0200] Terada was one of them.
[c98_0200] Consumed by his need for revenge, Terada would go to any lengths to see it realized,
[c98_0200] including faking his own death,
[c98_0200] all to set his plan in motion.
[c98_0200] Once you're dead...
[c98_0200] I'll end it with the switch for the explosives.
[c98_0200] Kiryu-san... You're going to die!
[c98_0200] The fight that ensued was tragic.
[c98_0200] I felt as though Terada had been prepared to die...
[c98_0200] ...as though he knew his fate the moment he appeared before me.
[c98_0200] He met his end after being shot, an act of betrayal
[c98_0200] by Takashima, the real mastermind.
[c98_0200] And with his dying breath, he said...
[c98_0200] Kiryu-san... I-In the end... Trust me...
[c98_0200] Not long after that,
[c98_0200] a bomb began to tick down.
[c98_0200] That was when Takashima panicked,
[c98_0200] and Ryuji seized the opportunity to end things himself.
[c98_0200] And so... the curtain fell on the war between east and west, Tokyo and Osaka,
[c98_0200] with heavy hearts.
[c98_0200] But there was still one more thing I had to do...
[c98_0200] One more thing I had to make right.
[c98_0200] Gotta hurry... and settle this.
[c98_0200] Stop it! We've gotta go!
[c98_0200] I'm not going.
[c98_0200] What!?
[c98_0200] I still have something to do.
[c98_0200] December 24th, 2006
[c98_0200] At long last, this trying, difficult journey of mine...
[c98_0200] ...had finally come to an end.
[r00_0601] Hold this.
[r00_0601] Well?
[r00_0601] Nice ink. That a snake?
[r00_0601] Wrong, asshole!
[r00_0601] It's not just any snake!
[r00_0601] It's a goddamn viper!
[r00_0601] That's why they call me the Fighting Viper!
[r00_0601] Doesn't matter to me what it is.
[r00_0601] Well, it oughta! The habu's the symbol of Okinawa!
[r00_0601] I got the heart and soul of this island right here.
[r00_0601] Wow. Real hometown proud, aren't ya.
[r00_0601] Damn right.
[r00_0601] And now I'm gonna teach your tourist ass what a real Okinawan's made of.
[r00_0601] Back off, Mikio! This one's mine!
[r00_0601] Ready to rumble?
[r00_0601] Ready when you are.
[r00_0601] Bring it!
[r01_0100] Uncle Kaz!
[r01_0100] Caught us some dinner.
[r01_0100] Let's go. I'm sure everyone's starving by now.
[r01_0100] 'Kay!
[r01_0200] Dinner is served.
[r01_0200] Come on, everyone, let's eat!
[r01_0200] It's Riki-chan!
[r01_0200] What happened to eating?
[r01_0200] Riki-chan! Let's play catch!
[r01_0200] Aniki.
[r01_0200] What's wrong? Something going on?
[r01_0200] It's the boss.
[r01_0200] He...
[r01_0200] He's been shot.
[r01_0300] Yes, of course.
[r01_0300] Just a moment.
[r01_0300] Chairman, it's for you.
[r01_0300] Who is it?
[r01_0300] They said you'd understand if I mentioned "the deal."
[r01_0300] This is Dojima.
[r01_0300] Yes.
[r01_0300] We've discussed this before. I told you I'm not interested.
[r01_0300] That's right.
[r01_0300] Let me reiterate. The Tojo Clan wants no part in this.
[r01_0300] I've already given you an answer.
[r01_0300] Add as many zeroes as you want. I'm not going to budge.
[r01_0300] Goodbye.
[r01_0300] Chairman.
[r01_0300] May I presume that the phone call just now was about the Okinawa deal?
[r01_0300] Are you certain we can refuse it?
[r01_0300] Meaning?
[r01_0300] Respectfully, sir. At the moment, Hakuho payouts are the only thing keeping the Tojo Clan afloat.
[r01_0300] And this Okinawa business...
[r01_0300] If we accept, it would mean an immediate windfall. Enough to last us through the next decade.
[r01_0300] A cursory estimate puts our returns at 100 billion yen... and that's the low end.
[r01_0300] Not only that, if we did him a good turn now, he might prove a vital government ally in the—
[r01_0300] Enough!
[r01_0300] I don't need reminding.
[r01_0300] But nothing changes. No one's taking that land.
[r01_0300] Because of the fourth chairman, sir?
[r01_0300] After all he's done for the Tojo Clan...
[r01_0300] It wouldn't be right stealing the one place he belongs.
[r01_0300] Driver.
[r01_0300] Yes, sir.
[r01_0300] Take us back to HQ.
[r01_0300] Sir? But what about the banquet later this evening?
[r01_0300] Cancel it.
[r01_0300] First things first. I don't want anybody trying to push this deal through behind my back. I need everyone on the same page.
[r01_0400] Welcome back, sir!
[r01_0400] Chairman.
[r01_0400] What is it?
[r01_0400] You have a visitor. They arrived a little while ago.
[r01_0400] Who?
[r01_0400] Well...
[r01_0400] What!?
[r01_0400] It's true, sir.
[r01_0400] I didn't believe it myself, but there's no mistaking him.
[r01_0400] And where is he?
[r01_0400] Already in your office. Waiting for you.
[r01_0400] Got it.
[r01_0500] Kazama-san!
[r01_0500] But... But you were dead...
[r01_0500] Sorry for the surprise.
[r01_0500] What's this?
[r01_0500] Something the chairman very much needs right now.
[r01_0500] A deed?
[r01_0500] To the land in Okinawa...
[r01_0500] But that property belongs to the fourth chairman.
[r01_0500] I'm aware.
[r01_0500] You wouldn't allow yourself to take the land from Kazuma Kiryu.
[r01_0500] Which is why we stepped in on your behalf, and secured the deed ourselves.
[r01_0500] But... why do this?
[r01_0500] We're not in a position to let the Tojo Clan walk from this deal. The land acquisition must go through.
[r01_0500] Ugh...
[r01_0500] You don't understand. I've already made my decision.
[r01_0500] I don't want anything to do with this.
[r01_0500] You may want to reconsider, Chairman.
[r01_0500] With 30,000 members to support, can you really afford to refuse?
[r01_0500] Maybe not...
[r01_0500] But tell me, Kazama-san... What if I do?
[r01_0500] You'd be making a very big mistake.
[r01_0600] Sir!
[r01_0600] Where's Nakahara?
[r01_0600] He's in the operating room.
[r01_0600] And? Is he okay?
[r01_0600] How's it looking!?
[r01_0600] Dammit!
[r01_0600] Saki-chan. I'm so sorry...
[r01_0600] Saki...
[r01_0600] Hey. Are you all right?
[r01_0600] Do we have any idea who did it?
[r01_0600] Nope.
[r01_0600] He and the little lady were alone when it went down.
[r01_0600] Guy came in, shot him right in the stomach. Lotta hits.
[r01_0600] Another family out for revenge?
[r01_0600] No.
[r01_0600] I think it's got to do with the land deal.
[r01_0600] The deed to the property... It's gone missing from the office.
[r01_0600] What?
[r01_0600] It's gotta be those Tamashiro assholes!
[r01_0600] They've been gunning for us nonstop, ever since last year!
[r01_0600] I don't think so. The guy doesn't look like one of theirs…
[r01_0600] What is it, Saki?
[r01_0600] I've never seen him before…
[r01_0600] I don't believe it...
[r01_0600] This man shot him?
[r01_0600] Wait... Uncle Kaz, that's…
[r01_0600] Aniki.
[r01_0600] This guy... You know him, don't you?
[r01_0600] Yeah.
[r01_0600] He's the man who raised me.
[r01_0600] Kazama-san...
[r01_0600] ...Who died in my arms.
[r01_0700] So. You're off, then?
[r01_0700] We are.
[r01_0700] Right.
[r01_0700] Well, I'm glad I caught you before you're gone.
[r01_0800] Y'know, I'd always thought they'd end up together.
[r01_0800] Can't say I'm surprised.
[r01_0800] Of course Sayama-kun's gonna put her
career first. No time for romance.
[r01_0800] Yeah, guess so...
[r01_0800] Damn thing's tapped out.
[r01_0800] Here.
[r01_0800] Thanks.
[r01_0800] Why don't you keep it.
[r01_0800] A gift from me to you.
[r01_0800] No smoking in Division 1.
[r01_0800] Div 1?
[r01_0800] Yes. I'm transferring back, effective next month.
[r01_0800] A yakuza detail can smoke.
[r01_0800] But not homicide. Div 1 has a reputation to uphold.
[r01_0800] Well, look at you moving up in the world.
[r01_0800] I'm not so sure it's a cause for celebration.
[r01_0800] This recent feud between the Tojo and the Omi...
[r01_0800] Metro PD and Prefectural Police together couldn't do a damn thing to stop it.
[r01_0800] On top of that, Chief Kurahashi's involvement with the Jingweon Mafia made for quite a splashy scandal.
[r01_0800] It's safe to say the force's reputation has hit rock bottom.
[r01_0800] Then... why would you go back?
[r01_0800] I'm taking a bribe.
[r01_0800] They promoted everyone who had any involvement in the feud, and that includes myself and Sayama-kun.
[r01_0800] I suppose they think fast-tracking us to whatever plum post we want will keep our mouths shut.
[r01_0800] Ah hell, a promotion's a promotion.
[r01_0800] One way or another, you're back in the big leagues.
[r01_0800] I suppose, yes.
[r01_0800] Don't look too happy.
[r01_0800] I'm already worried.
[r01_0800] About what?
[r01_0800] About what happens to Kamurocho.
[r01_0800] The police are planning to back off both the Tojo and the Omi for the time being. Remove themselves from yakuza matters.
[r01_0800] As well they ought to. It's only right after what the yakuza did to spare our blushes.
[r01_0800] Fair enough.
[r01_0800] So. What's got you biting your nails, then?
[r01_0800] I can't bring myself to trust the yakuza just yet.
[r01_0800] Without Kiryu-san heading up the Tojo Clan...
[r01_0800] I fear Kamurocho will slide right back into the muck.
[r01_0800] Don't worry.
[r01_0800] Guy like him always has a plan.
[r01_0800] He's not gonna let things go to shit.
[r01_0800] And he wouldn't leave Kamurocho without taking care of business first.
[r01_0800] We should probably get going.
[r01_0800] So.
[r01_0800] Off to Kamurocho, I assume?
[r01_0800] Yeah.
[r01_0800] Didn't want to leave without stopping by Stardust and saying goodbye to Kazuki and Yuya.
[r01_0800] And then...
[r01_0800] And then?
[r01_0800] Well... There is one other person I need to talk to before I leave.
[r01_0800] ...About the Tojo Clan.
[r01_0800] Yeah.
[r01_0800] If things keep on the way they're going, Daigo will end up sixth chairman.
[r01_0800] But the truth is, he's still young.
[r01_0800] I'm not so sure he can pull the clan together.
[r01_0800] So you need someone to share the weight...
[r01_0800] Who do you have in mind?
[r01_0800] There is someone who knows the Tojo Clan inside and out, just like I do. He's our best bet.
[r01_0800] Ah. Him.
[r01_0800] It's a risky idea... Do you really think Daigo has what it takes to rein him in?
[r01_0800] Nobody does. You just can't put a collar on some dogs.
[r01_0800] Goro Majima...
[r01_0800] If you could make him see a way he'd be able
to use the Tojo to his advantage...
[r01_0800] You just might get his help.
[r01_0800] If we're lucky.
[r01_0800] Be honest. Do you really think you can get him on board?
[r01_0800] Don't have much choice.
[r01_0800] That's why I have to see him today. Whatever it takes...
[r01_0800] I'll find a way to get through to him.
[r01_0800] Think you'll manage that without a broken rib or two?
[r01_0800] Eh. I guess we'll find out soon enough.
[r01_0800] Stay safe.
[r01_0800] I'll try. You do the same.
[r01_0800] Goodbye, for now.
[r01_0800] Bye!
[r01_0900] Uncle Kaz, this is probably the last time we'll be in Kamurocho together, right?
[r01_0900] No, of course not.
[r01_0900] We can still come visit anytime.
[r01_0900] What's wrong?
[r01_0900] I just wanna have fun today.
[r01_0900] Me and you, Uncle Kaz!
[r01_0900] Can we?
[r01_0900] Sure can.
[r01_0900] Kamurocho won't know what hit it. Sound good?
[r01_1000] Little early to be slacking off. Huh, Yuya?
[r01_1000] Kiryu-san!
[r01_1100] Word is you're bailin' on Kamurocho...
[r01_1100] Kiryu-chan.
[r01_1100] Yeah.
[r01_1100] That's why I came to see you.
[r01_1100] Hell's that mean?
[r01_1100] I need your help.
[r01_1100] Someone has to watch Daigo's back, because I won't be there to do it.
[r01_1200] Ya know how I operate, don't ya.
[r01_1200] With me, it's hit hard or hit the bricks!
[r01_1200] And ain't nobody tellin' me what to do if they can't bring the heat.
[r01_1200] I know.
[r01_1200] So if ya want me back with the Tojo Clan so bad, ya know what ya gotta do!
[r01_1200] Knew it'd go like this.
[r01_1200] Then whaddaya say we get rollin', Kiryu-chan.
[r01_1200] Ooh, feels like ages since me and you threw down, don't it!
[r01_1200] Careful now... I ain't pullin' punches.
[r01_1200] Good.
[r01_1200] Then bring it...
[r01_1200] Kiryu-chan!
[r01_1300] That's my Kiryu-chan.
[r01_1300] Strong as a fuckin' ox.
[r01_1400] Well, shit... Guess this is really it, huh.
[r01_1400] Yeah.
[r01_1400] Gonna be real lonesome without ya, Kiryu-chan.
[r01_1400] Daigo needs help. I'm counting on you.
[r01_1400] Yeah...
[r01_1400] There's just one thing buggin' me about it.
[r01_1400] Yeah, what?
[r01_1400] If your boy starts goin' down the wrong track, I ain't so sure I'll be able to push him off it.
[r01_1400] What do you mean by that?
[r01_1400] Daigo—
[r01_1400] I mean, the sixth chairman. He can be real trustin', just like you.
[r01_1400] Hope he doesn't let anyone pull the wool over his eyes.
[r01_1400] Don't worry. Daigo's young, but he's not a fool.
[r01_1400] I should get going.
[r01_1400] The Tojo Clan needs you. Good luck.
[r01_1400] The hell'd I get myself into this time?
[r01_1400] What can ya do!
[r01_1400] Goro Majima...
[r01_1400] Runnin' shit big time!
[r01_1400] What a pain in the ass...
[r01_1400] Had to go and make a promise to Kiryu-chan... What can ya damn do.
[r02_0100] Uncle Kaz! It's still not ready!?
[r02_0100] I'm trying to focus here.
[r02_0100] Don't interrupt me!
[r02_0100] How many times do I have to tell you?
[r02_0100] Ow! Haruka!
[r02_0100] You can't bother him while he's cooking. You know better, Taichi!
[r02_0100] Come on. Everybody's playing outside till dinner's ready, remember?
[r02_0200] Oh man, curry!
[r02_0200] Spoons down! You know we don't eat until everyone's at the table.
[r02_0200] Okay...
[r02_0200] I think that's everyone...
[r02_0200] Wait... Hang on.
[r02_0200] Where's Izumi?
[r02_0200] Huh? Izumi-chan's not back yet?
[r02_0200] I don't know.
[r02_0200] Shiro. Weren't you two supposed to walk home from school together?
[r02_0200] We did. She was with me the whole way.
[r02_0200] So you don't know where she is right now, Shiro?
[r02_0200] Nope.
[r02_0200] Where could she be...
[r02_0200] She's probably fine! Let's just eat without her!
[r02_0200] Yeah, c'mon. It'll be okay, I know it!
[r02_0200] What do we do, Uncle Kaz?
[r02_0200] We go find her. You and me.
[r02_0200] The rest of you, go ahead and eat without us.
[r02_0200] Let's eat!
[r02_0300] Okay.
[r02_0300] I'll try. I promise.
[r02_0300] Good.
[r02_0300] I know that I can never replace your dad.
[r02_0300] But since the moment you walked in... you've been like a daughter to me.
[r02_0300] Uncle Kaz!
[r02_0300] Izumi-chan. Everyone's waiting for you.
[r02_0300] Let's go home, okay?
[r02_0300] There, there. No more tears.
[r02_0300] Now come on. It's curry tonight.
[r02_0300] How about we go eat while it's still warm?
[r02_0400] You didn't eat?
[r02_0400] We couldn't! Not till Izumi was here.
[r02_0400] Yeah, and now I'm starving. So hurry up and sit down!
[r02_0400] Izumi-chan, come sit next to me!
[r02_0400] Come on, hurry!
[r02_0400] Okay!
[r02_0400] C'mon, Uncle Kaz!
[r02_0400] We can't start till you guys sit!
[r02_0400] Sorry.
[r02_0400] All right. Everyone ready?
[r02_0400] Let's eat!
[r02_0400] Isn't it yummy?
[r02_0500] Uncle Kaz.
[r02_0500] They haven't stopped.
[r02_0500] We got another eviction notice.
[r02_0500] I guess we might really have to leave after all.
[r02_0500] Those guys have been coming around a lot more often, too.
[r02_0500] They're starting to make the other kids nervous...
[r02_0500] I'll go see what's up.
[r02_0500] Shit! C'mon, Mikio, start the car, man! C'mon!
[r02_0500] Okay!
[r02_0600] Damn, hot as hell out here...
[r02_0600] Hey. Tough guys.
[r02_0600] It's him!
[r02_0600] What do you want, old man?
[r02_0600] Both of you are from the Ryudo Family. Do I have that right?
[r02_0600] So what if we are?
[r02_0600] Your family make a habit of threatening civilians? You owe me an explanation for this. We pay our rent on time.
[r02_0600] "Civilian," huh? Yeah, my ass.
[r02_0600] Damn sure I've never seen a civilian with that kinda ink on his back.
[r02_0600] You have now. And you're scaring my kids.
[r02_0600] I don't want to see your faces again.
[r02_0600] Listen here, man.
[r02_0600] Ain't nobody we hate more than uppity mainlanders like you.
[r02_0600] So turn around and get the hell outta Okinawa.
[r02_0600] And that's why you want us gone?
[r02_0600] Beats me.
[r02_0600] You want the real reason...
[r02_0600] You're gonna have to talk to the boss.
[r02_0600] Hey, hold up!
[r02_0600] Where do you think you're goin'?
[r02_0600] The Ryudo office.
[r02_0600] Maybe your boss won't waste my time.
[r02_0600] Aniki, quick! We've gotta warn him!
[r02_0600] We don't gotta warn nobody over this bullshit!
[r02_0600] Boss only asked us to keep an eye on you...
[r02_0600] But you go thinking you can stroll on in to the family office, and we got a problem.
[r02_0600] How do you think that'd make me look, huh?
[r02_0600] Tell me a better idea.
[r02_0600] You want to go so damn bad...
[r02_0600] You get through me first!
[r02_0600] Oh yeah? And that's all?
[r02_0600] You don't even know who you're messing with, old man!
[r02_0600] Your dumb ass thinks you're gonna make it past the captain?
[r02_0600] Captain?
[r02_0600] You heard me!
[r02_0600] My aniki here? He's the captain of the Ryudo Family...
[r02_0600] The Fighting Viper, Rikiya Shimabukuro!
[r02_0600] Now run while you still can, asshole!
[r02_0600] That's enough.
[r02_0600] 'Scuse me?
[r02_0600] Look. You don't need to embarrass yourself, here.
[r02_0600] Oh no, you ain't talkin' your way outta this. It's on, chickenshit!
[r02_0600] You might be a big shot down here in Okinawa...
[r02_0600] But your little song and dance was never gonna scare me off. Sorry, kid.
[r02_0600] Hold this.
[r02_0600] Well?
[r02_0600] Nice ink. That a snake?
[r02_0600] Wrong, asshole!
[r02_0600] It's not just any snake!
[r02_0600] It's a goddamn viper!
[r02_0600] That's why they call me the Fighting Viper!
[r02_0600] Doesn't matter to me what it is.
[r02_0600] Well, it oughta! The habu's the symbol of Okinawa!
[r02_0600] I got the heart and soul of this island right here.
[r02_0600] Wow. Real hometown proud, aren't ya?
[r02_0600] Damn right.
[r02_0600] And now I'm gonna teach your tourist ass what a real Okinawan's made of.
[r02_0600] Back off, Mikio! This one's mine!
[r02_0600] Ready to rumble?
[r02_0600] Ready when you are.
[r02_0600] Then bring it!
[r02_0700] Aniki!
[r02_0700] Shit... The hell's he eat to get that strong?
[r02_0700] Well?
[r02_0700] I may be mainland.
[r02_0700] And old.
[r02_0700] But you still felt that, didn't you?
[r02_0700] You made a promise.
[r02_0700] And you're gonna keep it. Take me to your boss.
[r02_0800] Right this way.
[r02_0800] After you.
[r02_0800] Make yourself comfortable. I'll go get the boss.
[r02_0800] It won't be a minute.
[r02_0800] Hey. Sorry to keep you waitin'.
[r02_0800] So you're Kiryu-san.
[r02_0800] Hear you and Rikiya had yourselves a little scuffle.
[r02_0800] You and me need to have a talk.
[r02_0800] Ah. Lemme guess, the eviction notices?
[r02_0800] That's right.
[r02_0800] Give it to me straight. Why do you keep trying to make us leave?
[r02_0800] Saki.
[r02_0800] Hey, Saki.
[r02_0800] Me and this gentleman got grown-up stuff to talk about.
[r02_0800] Mind taking it to your room for a bit?
[r02_0900] I see where you're coming from.
[r02_0900] Great. Then we'll just—
[r02_0900] We're not leaving.
[r02_0900] Wha!? Whaddaya mean!?
[r02_0900] Everything you said makes sense.
[r02_0900] But at the end of the day...
[r02_0900] It's the same old story. You before everyone else. Typical yakuza.
[r02_0900] 'Scuse me?
[r02_0900] I was yakuza too, once.
[r02_0900] Didn't care if I made a mess of other people's lives, as long as it got me what I wanted.
[r02_0900] And I made a mess or two.
[r02_0900] But that's not good enough anymore.
[r02_0900] Do you realize what would happen to those kids if you got your way?
[r02_0900] Well, I do. So as long as I'm around, my orphanage and everyone in it is staying put.
[r02_0900] You understand? We're done here.
[r02_0900] Bullshit! Don't you walk away!
[r02_0900] I might be an old Okinawan fart...
[r02_0900] But I'm not gonna let some mainland punk talk to me like that. You get me?
[r02_0900] Are you sure that's what you want?
[r02_0900] Huh!?
[r02_0900] If you kill me, my kids will have nowhere to turn.
[r02_0900] So tell me. Are you sure that's what you want?
[r02_0900] If you really love Okinawa, you've got
bigger things to worry about.
[r02_0900] Some innocent children are no threat to you.
[r02_0900] If you want a fight, I'll give you one.
[r02_0900] But you should know: if it comes to that, I won't hold anything back.
[r03_0100] Next in local news...
[r03_0100] Today, Okinawa takes a close look as a key figure in the fervent liberal push for military expansion in the region,
[r03_0100] Minister of defense, Ryuzo Tamiya,
[r03_0100] and acting overseer for the ongoing Okinawa resort development deal, Land Minister Yoshinobu Suzuki,
[r03_0100] both paid a visit to the embattled region today.
[r03_0100] On one side of this divisive conflict stands Tamiya-shi, leading proponent of the island's newly proposed BMD, or ballistic missile defense plan.
[r03_0100] This new defense system, a combination of Japanese and American technology, is, in theory,
[r03_0100] designed to target and destroy any incoming missile weapons before they can make impact.
[r03_0100] Supporters believe this will guarantee Japan's safety for another decade, at least.
[r03_0100] Furthermore, they believe this system to be so effective, global defense standards will skyrocket as a result of its establishment.
[r03_0100] Such is the stated opinion of Japanese military specialists.
[r03_0100] On the other side is Suzuki-shi, who has long opposed expansion of American military presence on Okinawan shores.
[r03_0100] He instead urges for a push to attract tourism to the region by way of a new luxury resort.
[r03_0100] Politicians and business interests alike will be paying close attention
[r03_0100] while these two men are visiting Okinawa.
[r03_0100] Tamiya-shi's stay got off to a rocky start as throngs of protestors greeted him at the airport,
[r03_0100] carrying signs and handing out flyers opposing his proposed agenda for military expansion.
[r03_0100] In a more welcoming display, Suzuki-shi was met by a group of local businessmen and financiers...
[r03_0100] Who proceeded to take him on a personal guided tour of his intended site for the resort.
[r03_0100] The two proposals, Tamiya-shi's military agenda and Suzuki-shi's plans to promote tourism,
[r03_0100] have been met with mixed opinions from the people of Okinawa. Needless to say...
[r03_0100] Both ministers will need to compromise if they hope to accomplish their goals.
[r03_0100] Of course, it's clear that this BMD system would be vital to ensuring Japan has a bright, stable future.
[r03_0100] But I cannot condone this reckless attempt to bolster Japan's defense at the expense of Okinawa's overall well-being.
[r03_0100] My resort development plan will help promote tourism to the island and drastically stimulate its economy,
[r03_0100] creating new jobs and opportunities for the humble people of this beautiful land. I say Okinawa first.
[r03_0100] Defending our nation is all that concerns me. I have nothing more to say on the matter.
[r03_0100] When approached, Tamiya-shi refused elaboration, as opposed to his seemingly more receptive opponent.
[r03_0100] The minister departed the airport for the proposed build site, clearly uninterested in entertaining any interviews.
[r03_0100] Despite the unexpected arrival of both politicians, no action is yet being taken. The land will remain untouched as talks progress.
[r03_0100] Many speculate both men will push their proposals through the National Diet at some point in the weeks or months to follow.
[r03_0100] And how exactly do the locals feel about all this?
[r03_0100] I'm not too keen on them expanding the base again.
[r03_0100] But a resort? Now that's something I might be able to get behind.
[r03_0100] Even if some country does go and shoot missiles at us,
[r03_0100] I bet they'd aim at Tokyo, not Okinawa.
[r03_0100] Not surprised Tamiya-san doesn't care about what's best for us, though.
[r03_0100] As the race for prime minister heats up in the coming weeks, the intense scrutiny on both Tamiya-shi and Suzuki-shi shows no signs of stopping.
[r03_0100] More local news after these messages—
[r03_0100] Uncle Kaz... Is that why they keep trying to kick us out?
[r03_0700] So, you're back, huh?
[r03_0700] Nothing you say will change my mind.
[r03_0700] Well, um...
[r03_0700] That's not why I'm here this time.
[r03_0700] Hm?
[r03_0700] What is it, then?
[r03_0700] Aniki, I... kinda need to ask you for a favor.
[r03_0800] All right. What do you need me to do?
[r03_0800] Well... with the little lady missing and all, the boss has been in a real bad way.
[r03_0800] He needs someone to pull him out of his own head. You know, talk some sense into him.
[r03_0800] And that should be me?
[r03_0800] I'd think so. The boss took a real shine to you from the moment you set foot in our office.
[r03_0800] You're the only one he'll listen to, Aniki!
[r03_0800] Hold on a second.
[r03_0800] ...Yeah?
[r03_0800] Why do you keep calling me your aniki? "Aniki" this, "aniki" that. What gives?
[r03_0800] I mean...
[r03_0800] It's 'cause you're my aniki. Duh.
[r03_0800] You're the captain of the Ryudo Family. I'm nothing to you, especially not your aniki.
[r03_0800] Look, let's just get back on track, here.
[r03_0800] Not a chance.
[r03_0800] What'll my kids think seeing you coming around acting like we're friends? They'll get the wrong idea.
[r03_0800] C'mon, you're way overthinking this! What happened to camaraderie and manly-type respect?
[r03_0800] Don't you see? You're my aniki, Aniki!
[r03_0800] Anyway, I'll go pull the car around! Be right back, Aniki!
[r03_0900] Cap, you're back! Oh, Kiryu-aniki!
[r03_0900] Where's the boss?
[r03_0900] He's inside... Got himself all sauced up on awamori, so he's been fussin'...
[r03_0900] Shit! The fuck am I s'posed to do?
[r03_0900] Oh-ho! Well, well... if it ain't my friend Kiryu-san!
[r03_0900] Hey, there. You're not looking so hot.
[r03_1000] Fine, then.
[r03_1000] I'll go and find Saki myself.
[r03_1000] Whaaa—!? The hell's that mean!?
[r03_1000] Means you and I have something in common.
[r03_1000] It's not in my nature to just stand by and do nothing when a child is in trouble.
[r03_1000] Now, hold on! If you think this'll change my mind about the land...
[r03_1000] Don't worry.
[r03_1000] Saki's safety comes first. I'm not gonna hold anything over your head in exchange for finding her.
[r03_1000] The land deal's not what's important here.
[r03_1000] Right now, we have to focus on bringing your daughter home.
[r03_1000] You're...?
[r03_1000] Also, I'll be borrowing one of your boys.
[r03_1000] Rikiya, let's move.
[r03_1000] Whatever you say, Aniki!
[r03_1100] Huh?
[r03_1100] Who's this asshole?
[r03_1100] You lost, li'l Ryudo boy?
[r03_1100] Where's Saki?
[r03_1100] The kid with the dumb look?
[r03_1100] She's up with the boss.
[r03_1100] I hate to break it to ya like this,
[r03_1100] but there's only one way you're gettin' past us...
[r03_1100] In a body bag!
[r03_1100] I don't have time for this.
[r03_1100] Step aside.
[r03_1100] Someone's got a pair on 'im.
[r03_1100] Alrighty then, boys!
[r03_1100] Tear him a new one!
[r03_1200] Saki...
[r03_1200] So, the Ryudo's got some new muscle.
[r03_1200] And he crushed my boys all by himself. Color me impressed.
[r03_1200] I'm not part of the Ryudo Family.
[r03_1200] I'm here for the girl, and you're gonna give her up.
[r03_1200] See now, that's strange.
[r03_1200] 'Cause this girl? Nakahara's the only one who gives a damn about her.
[r03_1200] It doesn't matter who asked me to come.
[r03_1200] One way or another, you're gonna let her go.
[r03_1200] Like hell I am!
[r03_1200] You think I'm stupid enough to let my one bargaining chip walk off that easy?
[r03_1200] ...Bargaining chip?
[r03_1200] You really don't know a damn thing, do you? More naive than I thought.
[r03_1200] You got any idea what this sweet little girl's been through? It's a real sob story.
[r03_1200] First she watches her dad hang himself...
[r03_1200] Then, Mommy goes and kidnaps her to live out some bullshit romance.
[r03_1200] Makes you wonder... what's this world comin' to.
[r03_1200] I'm sorry, what? What's that supposed to mean?
[r03_1200] You said it yourself—the three of us would be a family!
[r03_1200] You really think I'd wanna shack up with some raggedy bitch like you?
[r03_1200] You must be out of your fucking mind!
[r03_1200] I already got everything I needed from you, hag.
[r03_1200] You're not really serious... are you?
[r03_1200] You're fucking with me, right!? Say something!
[r03_1200] You bastard, you promised me!
[r03_1200] Get your... filthy hands... off of me!
[r03_1200] Shame. You could've used the facelift.
[r03_1200] And don't think I forgot about you, either.
[r03_1200] After I'm done gutting you,
[r03_1200] Nakahara is going to get a nice care package...
[r03_1200] Full of your fingers.
[r03_1200] Well, this is a letdown.
[r03_1200] Oh?
[r03_1200] I'm not a fan of raising my fists to scum like you.
[r03_1200] Right. Real fucking saint, you are.
[r03_1200] But there is one thing about this that I'm liking even less.
[r03_1200] The thought of letting you walk.
[r03_1200] Huh!?
[r03_1200] Now come and get some!
[r03_1300] The hell...
[r03_1300] is a guy like you...
[r03_1300] doin' in Okinawa?
[r03_1300] Aniki, you okay!?
[r03_1300] Young Miss!
[r03_1300] Saki...
[r03_1300] Your old man, Nakahara...
[r03_1300] He's been worried sick about you, right from the moment you disappeared.
[r03_1300] He convinced himself that you ran away so you could go and live with your mother.
[r03_1300] But he really missed you.
[r03_1300] So now you have a choice, Saki.
[r03_1300] Do you want to live with Nakahara, or your mom?
[r03_1300] I don't want the bitch.
[r03_1300] Just like she doesn't want me.
[r03_1300] You're all a bunch of shit-for-brains!
[r03_1300] Don't you get it?
[r03_1300] This mute little leech ruined my fucking life!
[r03_1300] The second she was born, she took everything from me!
[r03_1300] You selfish... How could you say that to your own daughter!?
[r03_1300] I'll say what I want! Don't touch me!
[r03_1300] If you want to drag her dead weight around that badly, fine. Be my guest!
[r03_1300] Shit. Some mother you'll be.
[r03_1300] Saying all that in front of your kid...
[r03_1300] Saki's gonna have a rough time with her...
[r03_1300] Saki's gonna be fine.
[r03_1300] You've never opened her sketchbook, have you?
[r03_1300] No...
[r03_1300] Take a look.
[r03_1300] "Thank you for protecting me. Love, Saki"
[r03_1300] Doesn't leave much room for doubt, does it?
[r03_1300] I think...
[r03_1300] ...it's safe to say she's your daughter, now.
[r03_1300] Isn't that right, Saki?
[r03_1300] My girl...
[r03_1300] Oh, Saki!
[r03_1300] Thank you... Thank you so much! Saki...!
[r03_1300] My daughter... My Saki!
[r03_1400] I mean it! I really can't thank you enough for what you did for me!
[r03_1400] I've been in this life for a good 40 years now...
[r03_1400] And never once have I met a man like you!
[r03_1400] Don't flatter me.
[r03_1400] Oh, no! I'm not done yet!
[r03_1400] After what happened tonight, I want you to be my sworn brother.
[r03_1400] What...?
[r03_1400] Your drinks, Boss.
[r03_1400] What are you guys up to?
[r03_1400] Come on now, Brother.
[r03_1400] I'm serious! At this point, you're family.
[r03_1400] Let's seal the deal with an oath.
[r03_1400] Hold on a second.
[r03_1400] I left the yakuza life behind.
[r03_1400] You think I give a damn about that?
[r03_1400] This is about showin' you some respect. That's what matters.
[r03_1400] Don't I get a say in this?
[r03_1400] We don't have a witness, but I insist. Please!
[r03_1400] If it's a witness you need, you have one.
[r03_1400] Daigo.
[r03_1500] In any case, I hope we can move on from this matter both quickly and amicably.
[r03_1500] We should go, Toma-kun.
[r03_1500] Yes.
[r03_1500] Daigo.
[r03_1500] What is it?
[r03_1500] If the Tojo Clan ever decides to come for my land one day...
[r03_1500] Just give me a heads up first, all right?
[r03_1500] Those kids, they depend on me like I was their actual father.
[r03_1500] I understand.
[r03_1500] But there's no need for you to worry.
[r03_1500] As long as I'm chairman, the Tojo Clan will stay far away from Okinawa.
[r03_1500] That a promise?
[r03_1500] It is.
[r03_1500] I'm well aware of how resilient you are, Kiryu-san.
[r03_1500] Incurring your wrath would be the worst mistake I could make.
[r03_1500] Toma-kun's dream for Okinawa can wait until he himself becomes prime minister.
[r03_1500] Right, Toma-kun?
[r03_1500] You'll be well into your twilight years by then, Kiryu-san.
[r03_1500] And those children of yours? They'll be about the same age I am now.
[r03_1500] Things will be different, then.
[r03_1500] I won't—I'll be stubborn as ever.
[r03_1500] I'm sure you will.
[r03_1500] I hope to see you again under different circumstances, Fourth Chairman.
[r03_1500] Yeah.
[r03_1500] Say, Brother...
[r03_1500] Hm? What's up?
[r03_1500] By, uh... By fourth chairman... He didn't mean chairman of the Tojo Clan, did he?
[r03_1500] I mean, that would be nuts.
[r03_1500] And if he did?
[r03_1500] What!? You're shittin' me!
[r03_1500] Everyone who's anyone's heard the legends of the fourth chairman!
[r03_1500] The Dragon of Dojima...
[r03_1500] Then... you're that Kiryu!?
[r03_1500] Yep. Next time you decide to pick a fight...
[r03_1500] You might wanna do just a little more research first... Brother.
[r03_1500] Look at me, swearin' an oath with the biggest fish in the yakuza sea.
[r03_1500] Life's funny like that.
[r04_0100] Yes?
[r04_0100] Kiryu, it's me. Kashiwagi.
[r04_0200] What's going on, Aniki...?
[r04_0200] Apparently... Back in Tokyo...
[r04_0200] Someone shot the chairman of the Tojo Clan.
[r04_0200] Hold on a sec.
[r04_0200] You're talking about the guy who showed up last year?
[r04_0200] When you and the boss swore your oath? Him?
[r04_0200] And the one who shot Daigo...
[r04_0200] It was him.
[r04_0200] The man in the drawing.
[r04_0200] Yeah.
[r04_0200] Seems that's right.
[r04_0300] Where are the others?
[r04_0300] In bed. All tucked in.
[r04_0400] Aniki. I...
[r04_0400] I promise that I won't slow you down or get in your way.
[r04_0400] Just, please...
[r04_0400] I'm beggin' you.
[r04_0400] You have to let me come with!
[r04_0400] ...All right.
[r04_0400] Aniki!
[r04_0400] You won't regret this!
[r04_0400] We leave Okinawa tomorrow night.
[r04_0400] Head back over to the office and start packing your things.
[r04_0400] Right!
[r04_0400] Haruka...
[r04_0400] Keep an eye on Rikiya for me.
[r04_0400] I can't bring him along.
[r04_0400] Kamurocho's too dangerous.
[r04_0400] And I don't want him getting hurt if I can help it.
[r04_0400] Uncle Kaz...
[r04_0500] What's up with those clothes, Uncle Kaz?
[r04_0500] I'm heading up to Tokyo. I'll be gone about a week.
[r04_0500] Whoa, really!?
[r04_0500] That's so cool! Can I come, too? Please...?
[r04_0500] Yeah! Take us with you!
[r04_0500] Sorry, kids. This isn't gonna be a vacation.
[r04_0500] Your Uncle Kaz has some very important business to take care of.
[r04_0500] But while I'm gone, you'll have a new friend staying with you. I want you to welcome them to Morning Glory.
[r04_0500] This is Saki.
[r04_0500] She's been through a lot, so she has some trouble talking.
[r04_0500] Her dad's been hurt. They're looking after him at the hospital, so she's all by herself.
[r04_0500] That's why she's going to be staying here until he gets better.
[r04_0500] So what do you say? Can you make her feel at home?
[r04_0500] Heck yeah we can!
[r04_0500] Hi, Saki! Come meet everyone!
[r04_0600] It's open.
[r04_0600] Chairman. Regarding today's agenda... We've received a very important call from Kashiwagi-sama.
[r04_0600] He's requesting the arrangement of a formal clan leadership meeting.
[r04_0600] All right, then.
[r04_0600] And what about tonight's conference with the IT startup, Chairman? It poses a scheduling conflict.
[r04_0600] Cancel it.
[r04_0600] When headquarters comes calling, you answer. It's as simple as that.
[r04_0600] Understood, sir.
[r04_0700] You know...
[r04_0700] China's a real strange place. Isn't it.
[r04_0700] Pigeons, frogs...
[r04_0700] Hell, even cats and dogs end up on the dinner table.
[r04_0700] Whatever it takes to keep yourselves alive.
[r04_0700] But you know something?
[r04_0700] I've got some respect for you slippery Chinese snakes.
[r04_0700] Laying down roots in someone else's country takes serious balls.
[r04_0700] That's some mafia-level shit right there.
[r04_0700] Huh? No, I'm not mafia!
[r04_0700] I-I'm just a chef! I swear!
[r04_0700] C'mon, Chen-san. Let's be pals.
[r04_0700] All your neighbors are already on board. And I know they're good for their dues.
[r04_0700] A million a month.
[r04_0700] A million!?
[r04_0700] Considering how long you people have been crowding us out with your tea shops and greasy spoons... I'd say it's a good deal.
[r04_0700] But I'd gladly take the deed to this shithole if you can't pay up.
[r04_0700] We'll set you up with a nice little gig in one of our own restaurants, too.
[r04_0700] No! It's not possible!
[r04_0700] Y'know, sometimes I forget how sharp Chinese knives can be.
[r04_0700] Could probably slice a man's head clean off.
[r04_0700] Think we should test it out?
[r04_0700] Your food's got a hell of a reputation around these parts, Chen-san.
[r04_0700] Boss. We just received a call from HQ.
[r04_0700] They want to discuss the sixth chairman.
[r04_0700] Please. Please, it's not possible!
[r04_0700] Oh, yeah?
[r04_0700] All right, then.
[r04_0700] Well, if you can't pay...
[r04_0700] Then you can't pay.
[r04_0700] Sorry I had to go and rustle your jimmies like that, ol' buddy.
[r04_0700] Hope this'll make it up to you. Something to remember me by.
[r04_0700] It's a shame. I was really lookin' forward to workin' together, Chen-san.
[r04_0700] My bad for overstepping.
[r04_0700] If you change your tune, give me a call.
[r04_0700] Bye, now.
[r04_0800] Man... I dunno how the boss can stand messin' around with porkers like that.
[r04_0800] Eh, he's never really been the discriminatin' type, y'know?
[r04_0800] He likes when they got meat on their bones.
[r04_0800] Nishikiyama Industries.
[r04_0800] M-My apologies, sir!
[r04_0800] Yes. The boss is in at the moment, but he's, uh...
[r04_0800] I'm sorry? A meeting?
[r04_0800] It's HQ. Somethin' about an urgent meetin'.
[r04_0800] Understood, sir. I'll pass that along. Thank you.
[r04_0800] Well done, sir!
[r04_0800] So? What time's it at?
[r04_0800] What time...?
[r04_0800] The meetin', dipshit!
[r04_0800] What? How did you...?
[r04_0800] I heard ya jabberin'! I might be busy gettin' busy, but I sure as hell ain't deaf!
[r04_0800] My apologies, sir! They said it's at seven!
[r04_0800] There ya go!
[r04_0800] That's
[r04_0800] That's what
[r04_0800] That's what I'm
[r04_0800] That's what I'm fuckin'
[r04_0800] That's what I'm fuckin' talkin'
[r04_0800] That's what I'm fuckin' talkin' about!
[r04_0800] Thank you, sir!
[r04_0800] I'm on top of the motherfuckin' world!
[r04_0800] Nishino! Hirai!
[r04_0800] Round up as many sorry sons o' bitches as ya can! Tonight!
[r04_0800] Miyauchi!
[r04_0800] Give Hasebe a ring! That club's gonna be ours once and for all!
[r04_0800] Horiguchi! Ishida!
[r04_0800] Get Mine on the horn! Tell him to bring a whole fuckin' billion! Cash!
[r04_0800] Rev up, boys... This war's finally gettin' started!
[r04_0800] No gettin' caught with our pants down!
[r04_0900] What? Did you say a billion?
[r04_0900] Ya heard me! I want it, and I want it in cash!
[r04_0900] Kanda-aniki... What exactly are you planning?
[r04_0900] A motherfuckin' war!
[r04_0900] War?
[r04_0900] The one that decides who's takin' the Tojo reins! Keep up, Mine!
[r04_0900] Aniki, the sixth chairman is very much alive. This seems somehow premature.
[r04_0900] I'll show you premature! Just shut it and bring me my money!
[r04_0900] Very well...
[r04_0900] Honestly... Could've asked nicely.
[r04_1000] No different than the day I left it.
[r04_1000] Help us!
[r04_1000] Leave us the hell alone! Someone, hurry and call the cops!
[r04_1000] Owww! Lemme go!
[r04_1000] What's the big idea, huh!?
[r04_1000] I told you, lady, we're booked! Now get lost!
[r04_1000] Ugh!
[r04_1050] You can stick that cash where the sun don't shine!
[r04_1050] What exactly is the problem here?
[r04_1050] I keep tellin' ya, this could all be yours!
[r04_1050] And we're not taking it.
[r04_1050] Oh yeah? Big talk for a couple of bitch-ass hosts!
[r04_1050] Kiryu-san!
[r04_1050] Kiryu-san...
[r04_1100] Sorry 'bout this, Fourth Chairman. Not a spare seat in the house tonight.
[r04_1100] Again, gonna have to ask ya to leave. Respectfully.
[r04_1100] Sorry. I can't do that.
[r04_1100] Not before you tell me what you're up to. Now talk.
[r04_1100] Is that a threat I'm hearin'? Those sure sound like fightin' words. Chairman or not, I can't let that slide.
[r04_1100] Sure. If that's how you want to take it.
[r04_1100] Hear that? He's all yours, boys!
[r04_1100] Tear these punks to shreds!
[r04_1200] Damn...
[r04_1200] Just no winnin'...
[r04_1200] I'm done playing around. Answer me. What are you plotting?
[r04_1200] The wheels are in motion.
[r04_1200] Your boy Kashiwagi? He's gonna die.
[r04_1200] What!?
[r04_1200] This war... is just gettin' started!
[r04_1200] Kazuma Kiryu's a fuckin' beast.
[r05_0100] Been a long two years, eh, Kiryu-san?
[r05_0100] Yeah.
[r05_0100] I swear the drinks haven't tasted half as good since you left.
[r05_0100] Stick around a while.
[r05_0100] Sorry, I don't think I've got time for that.
[r05_0100] Is this because of what that Hasebe guy was saying earlier?
[r05_0100] Yeah. I'm worried about Kashiwagi-san.
[r05_0100] Right now, I need to focus on getting to the Millennium Tower...
[r05_0100] So, if I've got this right, this was just an internal dispute?
[r05_0100] Yes, officer. My sincerest apologies for all the trouble.
[r05_0100] Give it a minute. Kazuki'll have them gone in no time.
[r05_0200] I should get moving.
[r05_0200] Right. I assume you're off to find Kashiwagi-san?
[r05_0200] Yeah.
[r05_0200] Well? How does it look out there?
[r05_0200] Well, uh— The cops aren't piled up outside the club anymore... but they are swarming the Millennium Tower.
[r05_0200] That's a problem.
[r05_0200] Damn. Looks like I'll need to try and find some way around them then.
[r05_0200] Way ahead of you... Though it's gonna be a pain.
[r05_0200] Head east toward Nakamichi Street, keep going towards Pink Street, but just before you reach it, go north instead.
[r05_0200] That'll get you to the Millennium Tower without the cops ever even noticing.
[r05_0200] Got it.
[r05_0200] Just so you know, people have been seeing some shifty characters skulking around town lately, apart from the cops.
[r05_0200] So be on your guard out there.
[r05_0200] What do they look like?
[r05_0200] Witnesses say they wear black suits and dark sunglasses.
[r05_0200] An expat nightclub in town has been hearing rumors that these people are trying to track down Daigo-san.
[r05_0200] What?
[r05_0200] I'm unclear on the specifics, but it sounds like they may have been involved with his shooting.
[r05_0200] I don't know if it's a rival family, but whoever it might be, they're leaving no stone unturned in their search for him.
[r05_0200] Probably want to know if he's still alive.
[r05_0200] This is a thought I'd rather not entertain, but if Daigo-san truly is gone...
[r05_0200] ...Anyone aiming to become the next chairman would find that to be some very welcome news.
[r05_0200] Only thing we know for sure is that these people... They're no friends of yours, Kiryu-san.
[r05_0200] Keep your guard up.
[r05_0200] I will. Thanks.
[r05_0300] Who are you guys?
[r05_0300] Can I help you with something?
[r05_0300] Guess you don't understand me.
[r05_0300] All right, I get it. You're not here for a conversation.
[r05_0300] I'm not about to make this easy for you, though.
[r05_0300] Sorry...
[r05_0300] But remember—you guys asked for it.
[r05_0400] You must be the group that's trying to track down Daigo.
[r05_0400] So tell me... Who hired you?
[r05_0500] It's good to see you. Kiryu.
[r05_0500] Kashiwagi-san.
[r05_0500] We don't have much time.
[r05_0500] But some important information has come to light, and I need you in the loop.
[r05_0500] Right.
[r05_0500] It concerns today's officers' meeting.
[r05_0600] Huh!? Am I goin' deaf?
[r05_0600] Or did you say you want the fourth chairman back!?
[r05_0600] That's correct.
[r05_0600] With the sixth chairman out of commission... the Tojo Clan lacks an anchor to hold us steady.
[r05_0600] For now, we must assume the worst. Our current priority is to find ourselves a competent leader who can keep us afloat.
[r05_0600] The hell?
[r05_0600] In truth, I must agree.
[r05_0600] Mine, you rat fuck!
[r05_0600] Kanda-aniki.
[r05_0600] Asking Kiryu-san to step in is the best course of action at present.
[r05_0600] Bullshit it is!
[r05_0600] Captain...
[r05_0600] As you are well aware, I swore a binding oath to the sixth chairman.
[r05_0600] Under any other circumstances, I'd suggest waiting for Daigo-san to return.
[r05_0600] However, we've still got the Omi Alliance breathing down our necks.
[r05_0600] To this end, I believe it would be prudent to find a stopgap... At least until Daigo-san is well enough to rejoin us.
[r05_0600] Agreed.
[r05_0600] Bunch of wishy-washy pissants!
[r05_0600] Someone took our chairman out, and you're all sittin' on your asses like chumps!
[r05_0600] All those stocks must've skullfucked your brain into slop, huh, Mine!?
[r05_0600] Y'know, I'm with Kanda on this one.
[r05_0600] Any yakuza worth his salt's gonna avenge his dying chairman first.
[r05_0600] Then comes finding a successor.
[r05_0600] Hamazaki!
[r05_0600] Captain—
[r05_0600] If my sources are right, the guy who shot the chairman looked a hell of a lot like the late Shintaro Kazama.
[r05_0600] Or so I heard...
[r05_0600] You serious right now, Hamazaki?
[r05_0600] What in the hell's goin' on!?
[r05_0600] One of the sixth chairman's aides gave an account. Apparently, when Daigo was shot...
[r05_0600] He was alone in his office with a man who looked exactly like Patriarch Kazama.
[r05_0600] Well, I don't think the guy rose from the grave to mess with his old pals.
[r05_0600] More likely someone else pulled the trigger.
[r05_0600] Captain... You don't know who it was, do you?
[r05_0600] No.
[r05_0600] I don't have the slightest idea.
[r05_0600] If you ask me, the best thing the Tojo Clan can do right now...
[r05_0600] ...is find the louse who gunned down our chairman, and figure out who's trying to wage war.
[r05_0600] Once that's done, we can discuss whether or not the fourth chairman should assume leadership again.
[r05_0600] I have to disagree.
[r05_0600] Our first order of business should be to unite the Tojo Clan as one body.
[r05_0600] At this time, it is imperative that we recruit Kiryu-san to our cause... Or we risk the entire organization crumbling to pieces.
[r05_0600] Kiryu, Kiryu, Kiryu, Kiryu...
[r05_0600] The fuck we need him for!?
[r05_0600] But hey, if ya want him that bad...
[r05_0600] Then I'm gonna bring you his head on a goddamn plate!
[r05_0600] Kanda, stop!
[r05_0600] Listen, Cap—I got another truth bomb for ya.
[r05_0600] Ain't no chance in hell that the Nishikiyama Family's gonna be serving under Kazuma Kiryu!
[r05_0600] After what he did to our last two patriarchs, we've got every reason to hunt that motherfucker down and bury him.
[r05_0600] Remind me. Weren't you locked up for sex crimes while all that was going on?
[r05_0600] This ain't a damn joke!
[r05_0600] Point is, the Nishikiyama Family's ready to hammer that backstabbin' fuck into paste!
[r05_0600] If you're anglin' to bring him back, then I might as well get this shit over with and become the next chairman myself!
[r05_0600] For fuck's sake, Kiryu's our enemy!
[r05_0600] And I'm gonna tear him limb from limb!
[r05_0600] Hold on, now. I'm afraid I can't let you do that.
[r05_0600] What!?
[r05_0600] By all means, get rid of Kiryu-san.
[r05_0600] But letting some Nishikiyama trash run the clan? Well, that's just not gonna fly.
[r05_0600] Wouldn't you say, Captain?
[r05_0600] What are you talking about? This is no time to discuss succession!
[r05_0600] Says the guy pining after Kiryu-san.
[r05_0600] Kanda and I aren't exactly itching to get him back, and you know that.
[r05_0600] Hamazaki!
[r05_0600] If we ask Kiryu-san to take the seat now, he might just stick around, become seventh chairman.
[r05_0600] You wouldn't want that either, would you, Mine?
[r05_0600] I'd love to hear what the mute mutt thinks about all of this, too.
[r05_0600] Any thoughts... Majima-san?
[r05_0600] You're just as much a part of this as we are.
[r05_0600] Lay it on us.
[r05_0600] Morons.
[r05_0600] Huh!?
[r05_0600] I don't give a rip what happens.
[r05_0600] You guys can do whatever ya want.
[r05_0600] Sit your ass back down!
[r05_0600] Grab your ghost huntin' gear and chase Kazama-san...
[r05_0600] Or go and have Kiryu-chan bust your skulls open.
[r05_0600] The fuck do I care?
[r05_0600] Oh, yeah. Before I split...
[r05_0600] You three can brawl if ya want.
[r05_0600] But if ya even think of goin' near my turf...
[r05_0600] Kazama-san won't be the only ghost hauntin' this town.
[r05_0600] Majima...
[r05_0600] Peace.
[r05_0600] Kiryu-chan... You got a big storm comin'.
[r05_0700] So that's what's going on...
[r05_0700] It's safe to assume that your return to Kamurocho is no secret.
[r05_0700] Keep an eye out for Kanda in particular.
[r05_0700] Got it.
[r05_0700] For the time being, I expect each family to go about its business.
[r05_0700] I'll do what I can to keep tabs on Kanda and get to work tracking down the man who shot Daigo.
[r05_0700] There was another shooting last night. Same gunman.
[r05_0700] What the hell!?
[r05_0800] One thing, though. If this man really shot both of them...
[r05_0800] How did he get from Okinawa to Tokyo so quickly?
[r05_0800] Nakahara was shot a little after four o'clock yesterday.
[r05_0800] And Daigo, sometime around... six-thirty.
[r05_0800] That leaves a gap of about two and a half hours.
[r05_0800] Which is about how long the flight from Okinawa to Tokyo takes.
[r05_0800] But he wouldn't have had enough time to get to Tojo HQ from the airport...
[r05_0800] Hm? What's happening?
[r05_0800] Might be a blackout.
[r05_0800] Strange. Doesn't seem to affect the rest of Kamurocho.
[r05_0800] Kashiwagi-san!?
[r05_0800] Kashiwagi-san!
[r05_0800] Kiryu...
[r05_0800] You... have to...
[r05_0800] You have to track down the inside man... The one who's working with him.
[r05_0800] He has connections?
[r05_0800] I— I think they...
[r05_0800] I think they're after the Okinawa deal... Someone's trying to push it through...
[r05_0800] Someone in the Tojo Clan.
[r05_0800] You're... You're saying we have a traitor?
[r05_0800] Yes.
[r05_0800] I need you... to find them...
[r05_0800] Can you do that?
[r05_0800] Of course!
[r05_0800] Kashiwagi-san?
[r05_0800] Kashiwagi-san!
[r06_0100] Nothing to see here, folks! Move along! Do not enter the building!
[r06_0100] Everyone please remain calm and proceed this way to evacuate!
[r06_0100] Wait right there!
[r06_0100] Freeze!
[r06_0100] Hey!
[r06_0100] Stop! Get back here!
[r06_0200] Damn it, where'd he go?
[r06_0200] Let's try over there!
[r06_0200] Hey.
[r06_0200] Who's there?
[r06_0200] Kazuma Kiryu. Where there's smoke, there's fire.
[r06_0200] Date-san!
[r06_0200] We need to talk.
[r06_0200] How about a drink? For old times' sake.
[r06_0300] Welcome!
[r06_0300] Oh, Date-san. And you brought a friend tonight!
[r06_0300] Evening, Mama.
[r06_0300] Date-san, is this...?
[r06_0300] Sure is. Welcome back to Serena.
[r06_0300] This was your old haunt, wasn't it? The owner's really spruced it up.
[r06_0300] The usual okay, Date-san?
[r06_0300] Sure. And fix one up for the kid, too. He'll be in soon.
[r06_0300] Right away.
[r06_0300] Pretty young to run her own bar.
[r06_0300] She is.
[r06_0300] But she's got more moxie than the other old ladies around here. Prettier, too.
[r06_0300] Who are you calling old?
[r06_0300] Your drinks.
[r06_0300] Ah, you heard all that?
[r06_0300] Mama, you mind stepping out for a bit? We gotta catch up.
[r06_0300] Of course. Take your time.
[r06_0300] This place is practically a second home by now. No chance we'll be found here, don't worry.
[r06_0300] Good.
[r06_0300] But, Date-san... How did you know where to find me?
[r06_0300] Kazuki filled me in.
[r06_0300] With your track record, I figured it wouldn't be long till you found yourself in another mess.
[r06_0300] About time.
[r06_0300] Got the stuff?
[r06_0300] "The stuff," he says. Think you're mistakin' this for illicit contraband.
[r06_0300] Here you are.
[r06_0300] Ugh, that's way too strong! You trying to poison me, Mama?
[r06_0300] Splash some water in there, please!
[r06_0300] You got it.
[r06_0300] Aha! There it is, nice work.
[r06_0300] You know you're not my boss, right?
[r06_0300] I'm a senior frickin' editor, not some rookie errand boy! I swear, you can take the flatfoot out of the precinct...
[r06_0300] And those are?
[r06_0300] Oh. Just some things I thought you should see. Catch you up to speed.
[r06_0300] These are the current Tojo Clan officers.
[r06_0300] What are you getting at?
[r06_0300] Heh. Well, to be honest, I've had a little career change.
[r06_0300] Date-san... You're a journalist now?
[r06_0300] Sure am.
[r06_0300] Kiryu. This business you're caught up in...
[r06_0300] It all ties back to a story I've been chasing.
[r06_0300] Story?
[r06_0300] The Tojo Clan and the resort Minister Suzuki's backing in Okinawa? They're connected.
[r06_0300] You're walking a dangerous road, Kiryu.
[r06_0300] It's important for you to know who you're up against...
[r06_0300] So sit tight and listen good.
[r06_0400] Kashiwagi-san told me something before he died.
[r06_0400] He said that someone in the Tojo Clan's after the land deed.
[r06_0400] Well, he was right.
[r06_0400] And the only Tojo boys who could pull it off... are those four in front of you.
[r06_0400] That wasn't the only thing he mentioned.
[r06_0400] He also believes...
[r06_0400] The two of them are related?
[r06_0400] There's more...
[r06_0400] It wasn't just Daigo. The man who owns the land they want to build the resort on, Nakahara? They shot him, too.
[r06_0400] What is this, some kinda sick joke?
[r06_0400] Isn't this your old man? How's that even possible!?
[r06_0400] Don't ask me. I don't know what to believe.
[r06_0400] But we have this look-alike, who tried to kill Daigo and Nakahara...
[r06_0400] The mysterious foreigners in black suits...
[r06_0400] Then there was the helicopter attack...
[r06_0400] Who the hell are we up against here...?
[r06_0400] Hmm. That'll have to wait... For now, we need to focus on finding the traitor in the Tojo Clan.
[r06_0400] Agreed.
[r06_0400] I'll try digging up some dirt on the guy in this sketch.
[r06_0400] You track down our prime suspect for Kashiwagi's murder...
[r06_0400] Kanda.
[r06_0400] All right.
[r06_0400] They want the construction profits for themselves.
[r06_0400] That the traitor is in league with the man who shot Daigo.
[r06_0600] Hold your horses!
[r06_0600] You know this isn't a regular hotel, right?
[r06_0600] Only couples allowed inside.
[r06_0600] Huh?
[r06_0600] Really? Only couples?
[r06_0600] Come now, gentlemen. We don't tolerate any funny business here.
[r06_0600] You know we can't have yakuza using our rooms for your shenanigans.
[r06_0600] Looks like she won't let us in without a reason to be here...
[r06_0600] 'Scuse me, ma'am?
[r06_0600] We gotta be a couple to come in, right?
[r06_0600] No couple, no room.
[r06_0600] Well, I'm sweet on my aniki here, and we make a cute couple, don'tcha think?
[r06_0600] Wh-What?
[r06_0600] Normally we have to keep hush-hush, y'know— but I'm glad we can be ourselves here!
[r06_0600] Oh! So you two—I had no idea!
[r06_0600] In that case, I'll see what's available.
[r06_0600] 401's our only vacancy. It's a tight fit, but that just makes it cozy!
[r06_0600] Sweet, thanks!
[r06_0600] The elevator's just through there.
[r06_0600] Have fun, boys!
[r06_0600] Kanda's on the fourth floor, too, isn't he?
[r06_0600] Right.
[r06_0600] Seems kinda run-down for the patriarch of a major family, yeah?
[r06_0600] Who knows? Maybe he's one of those guys who doesn't like spending his own money.
[r06_0600] Can I have my arm back now?
[r06_0700] Here we are.
[r06_0700] Yeah.
[r06_0700] What took ya so long, sweetheart?
[r06_0700] Who the fuck're you!?
[r06_0700] Hope we're not interrupting anything... Seems like you got time for a chat.
[r06_0700] Who's askin'?
[r06_0700] The fourth chairman of the Tojo Clan. Kazuma Kiryu.
[r06_0700] Aw, shit...!
[r06_0700] Good seein' ya, Fourth Chairman. What brings ya 'round these parts?
[r06_0700] There's something we need to ask—
[r06_0700] Wake up, boys! We got company!
[r06_0700] That bastard Kanda... Where the hell did he go?
[r06_0700] Aniki—I'll check downstairs after we smack these guys around. So you head up top, okay?
[r06_0700] All right.
[r06_0800] Why's the fourth chairman... pissin' on my good time!?
[r06_0800] What the hell... are you doing?
[r06_0800] Like to ask ya the same thing! What, you come track me down just so you can start shit, little man!?
[r06_0800] Looks like a friendly chat's not on the table anymore.
[r06_0800] Fine. Guess I'll have to beat the answers out of you, then.
[r06_0800] Bring it on! You're gonna regret goin' toe to toe with me, motherfucker!
[r06_0800] I'm bringin' the heat, Fourth Chairman!
[r06_0900] All right, then... We done now? Start talking.
[r06_0900] I ain't know shit!
[r06_0900] Cut the crap. I don't believe a word you're saying.
[r06_0900] Your family's behind Kashiwagi-san's murder, isn't it!?
[r06_0900] Fuck no, we're not! What the hell would I get from bumpin' off the captain!?
[r06_0900] You wanted to be the next chairman of the Tojo Clan. So you made a job opening.
[r06_0900] Ya got it wrong! Just hear me out!
[r06_0900] Listen... The guy who offed the captain... It's gotta be Hamazaki!
[r06_0900] Hamazaki?
[r06_0900] Y-Yeah! That fuckin' snake wants Kamurocho for himself! He's been gunnin' for Kashiwagi from the start!
[r06_0900] Explain.
[r06_0900] He's got an entire army holed up in Yokohama! Just waitin' for a chance to strike!
[r06_0900] It's the truth! There was some Chinese guy fuckin' around on our turf! We nabbed him and made him spill everything!
[r06_0900] Aniki!
[r06_0900] Everything okay with you?
[r06_0900] Yeah... More or less.
[r06_0900] There were a lot of 'em, so it kinda took a while...
[r06_0900] Surprise, dumbass!
[r06_0900] This... is Kanda?
[r06_0900] Yeah.
[r06_0900] Hold up. Weren't we goin' to question him or somethin'?
[r06_0900] I got what I needed. There's no way he's the brains behind all this.
[r06_0900] I doubt a moron like him would even have a clue why Daigo was shot in the first place.
[r06_0900] Geez. Tokyo's a scary place, huh?
[r06_0900] Rikiya.
[r06_0900] I promise you. I will find who shot Nakahara.
[r06_0900] So do me a favor. Go back to Okinawa and—
[r06_0900] No way!
[r06_0900] Rikiya.
[r06_0900] I swore I would track down the bastard who shot the boss.
[r06_0900] I gotta avenge him!
[r06_0900] So please, Aniki! Don't send me home! Let me stay in Tokyo!
[r06_0900] I'm beggin' you!
[r06_0900] All right.
[r06_0900] But only on one condition.
[r06_0900] The man in that sketch... If he ever finds you, do not go after him on your own.
[r06_0900] Can you promise me that?
[r06_0900] ...Yeah.
[r06_0900] Good. Then we're done here.
[r06_0900] How about we go get a drink?
[r06_0900] I can give you a tour, show you the sights.
[r06_0900] I'll prove to you this town's not as scary as you think.
[r06_0950] Don't squirm.
[r06_0950] I'm breathing life into your viper. Stay still.
[r06_0950] My ink can change your life.
[r06_0950] I hope you're ready to accept it.
[r06_0950] I've got a viper on my back. That's the soul of Okinawa, right there.
[r06_0950] No matter what comes my way, I'll bare my fangs and strike first.
[r06_0950] Well spoken.
[r06_0950] Perhaps you have what it takes to bear this tattoo after all.
[r06_0950] All right. It's finished.
[r06_0950] Aniki! How's it look?
[r06_0950] Incredible work as usual. I'd expect nothing less.
[r06_0950] The two of us, both with Utabori ink.
[r06_0950] That means... we're brothers for life now—aren't we?
[r06_0950] That's right.
[r06_1000] Oh yeah? Got it.
[r06_1000] You did good.
[r06_1000] Sounds like Kanda got a nice little visit from the fourth chairman.
[r06_1000] Sure enough, got his ass handed to him.
[r06_1000] Guess the Dragon of Dojima's got some bite left in those old jaws.
[r06_1000] Safe to assume he'll keep sticking his nose into our business in Okinawa.
[r06_1000] So I wouldn't be surprised if he's known about your involvement for a while now.
[r06_1000] Which means that the next place he'll show up...
[r06_1000] Is right at your door.
[r06_1000] I brought you into this deal...
[r06_1000] So I suppose it's my fault if he comes after you.
[r06_1000] Remember, this contract is worth the hassle.
[r06_1000] Your family will earn a hundred billion, easy.
[r06_1000] Unfortunately, that also means the main suspect in the sixth chairman's shooting... is you.
[r06_1000] Majima-san.
[r06_1000] You see, I want Kamurocho all for myself.
[r06_1000] So. You know what needs to be done. Don't you?
[r06_1000] You have the most to lose if Kiryu-san gets in our way, after all.
[r06_1000] I don't care how you do it.
[r06_1000] Just do it. Don't let a guy down.
[r07_0200] Kiryu! We got ourselves a major scoop!
[r07_0200] Yeah, hot off the presses.
[r07_0200] The political desk bagged the exclusive.
[r07_0200] Tamiya from the Ministry of Defense finally agreed to terms with the Okinawa Prefectural Assembly.
[r07_0200] Which means... the military expansion he's been pushing for is a done deal.
[r07_0200] But the base and the resort are connected...
[r07_0200] If the base moves forward... that means construction on the resort should start any minute now.
[r07_0200] That explains it. The base gets the go-ahead so now they start up construction on the resort again.
[r07_0200] Oh, and Kiryu.
[r07_0200] You won't believe who else is involved in this whole circus...
[r07_0200] This found its way to our political reporter.
[r07_0200] Showed up to our office... anonymous tip.
[r07_0200] Is this real?
[r07_0200] Evidently. This resort Suzuki's been planning...
[r07_0200] Well, the Majima Family wanted in. Went after the construction rights behind closed doors.
[r07_0200] ...let's hit up another bar...
[r07_0200] ...where should we go next, Aniki...?
[r07_0200] ...go on, Aniki... live a little...
[r07_0300] Majima-san.
[r07_0300] Sorry, Kiryu-chan... Didn't spook ya just now, did I?
[r07_0300] What is all this?
[r07_0300] Oh, just my chaperones.
[r07_0300] World's so upside down, it ain't even safe keeping your office above ground anymore.
[r07_0300] The Majima Family welcomes you!
[r07_0300] So... How 'bout we take this somewhere more private?
[r07_0300] "Please dial 007."
[r07_0400] Feels good to be back, yeah?
[r07_0400] Been two years since I threw hands in this ring myself.
[r07_0500] Y'know, Kiryu-chan...
[r07_0500] It means somethin', being a yakuza. And believe it or not, I take that real serious.
[r07_0500] So even if some jackass did set me up, I ain't gonna go blabbin' unless ya make me.
[r07_0500] Ladies and gentlemen!
[r07_0500] Welcome to the ultimate showdown. Tonight, the legendary duo returns to the arena!
[r07_0500] More private, huh?
[r07_0500] If you want me to spill my guts...
[r07_0500] You're gonna have to beat 'em outta me!
[r07_0500] No surprise there.
[r07_0500] This is how it's always been with us... Why would now be any different?
[r07_0500] First up is the King of the Ring, the Dragon of Dojima... Kazuma Kiryu! Versus!
[r07_0500] The One-Eyed Demon, the Mad Dog of Shimano, and the Emperor of the Arena... Goro Majima!
[r07_0500] You've waited patiently for two years, and now... These titans are back in action! Who will emerge victorious!?
[r07_0500] Just like old times, isn't it, Kiryu-chan... It's everything I hoped for!
[r07_0500] Ya ask me, this kinda party suits us much better!
[r07_0500] Yeah... Sure does.
[r07_0500] So, no holds barred.
[r07_0500] Hit me with all ya got... Kiryu-chan!
[r07_0500] Ready... Fight!
[r07_0600] And the winner is... Kazuma Kiryu!
[r07_0600] That's my Kiryu-chan. Gave me one hell of an ass whoopin'.
[r07_0600] Well, I gave ya my word.
[r07_0600] Come back to my office and we'll chat.
[r07_0600] All right.
[r08_0100] There's more to it than that.
[r08_0100] Been a while, hasn't it. Kiryu.
[r08_0100] Florist.
[r08_0200] Wh-What the hell?
[r08_0200] Quite the surprise, eh? Especially for you, I imagine. He's the spitting image of the man who raised you.
[r08_0200] Something about this doesn't add up.
[r08_0200] This man... Just who the hell is he?
[r08_0200] What is that sketch? You have more intel?
[r08_0200] Boss! Something's going down— you're gonna want to see this!
[r08_0200] What!?
[r08_0200] It's him... Lau Ka Long...
[r08_0300] I'm sure you're already aware,
[r08_0300] but handling Kiryu requires... some finesse.
[r08_0300] See that fresh-faced kid in the photo?
[r08_0300] He's Kiryu's little sidekick.
[r08_0300] We grab him, and Kiryu will have no choice but to pay us a visit.
[r08_0300] ...Even if he knows it's all a trap.
[r08_0300] My only role in all this is setting the stage for you.
[r08_0300] After all, I am but a small part of this humble operation.
[r08_0300] Now then. The rest is in your capable hands...
[r08_0300] Lau-san.
[r08_0300] Hmph. That fool thinks he can bark orders at me.
[r08_0300] [You.]
[r08_0300] [What is it, sir?]
[r08_0300] [I need you to find this man.]
[r08_0300] [Sir!]
[r08_0300] Kiryu, that photo...
[r08_0300] Rikiya!
[r08_0300] Well now—I'm not sure why, but it appears that Lau's using his Snake Flower cronies to hunt down your pal...
[r08_0400] Rikiya!
[r08_0400] Aniki!
[r08_0400] It's been some time... Kazuma Kiryu.
[r08_0400] Lau!
[r08_0400] I didn't realize this trap would be so effective. I should have kidnapped your friend sooner.
[r08_0400] I know what it is you want!
[r08_0400] But he has nothing to do with this! Just let him go!
[r08_0400] You don't understand your situation, do you?
[r08_0400] The only reason I'm working with Hamazaki... is to take revenge on you. That's all.
[r08_0400] Could've come straight to me...
[r08_0400] Now, I'll show you hell... Kazuma Kiryu!
[r08_0500] Where are you going? You thought that was it?
[r08_0500] Rikiya!
[r08_0500] Aniki!
[r08_0500] Take a good look... as we sever your friend's head from his shoulders while you do nothing!
[r08_0500] Rikiyaaa!
[r08_0500] H-How!?
[r08_0500] B-But you... You're supposed to be dead!
[r08_0500] Kazama-san!
[r08_0500] Tell me.
[r08_0500] Are you... Are you Shintaro Kazama or not!?
[r08_0500] Why...
[r08_0500] Why'd you do it!?
[r08_0500] Why Daigo and Nakahara!?
[r08_0500] So you're Kazuma Kiryu.
[r08_0500] Yeah.
[r08_0500] Beautiful eyes.
[r08_0500] Huh?
[r08_0500] Like I heard from my brother before.
[r09_0100] That guy with Kazama's face really said all that to you?
[r09_0100] Yeah.
[r09_0100] Hm...
[r09_0100] Wonder what it is that he's after.
[r09_0100] All we know is that he's wrapped up in this whole mess somehow.
[r09_0100] Hey, what's wrong? Are you hurt?
[r09_0100] No...
[r09_0100] Aniki, I just... I don't really know what to make of all this.
[r09_0100] That guy with the mustache... Why'd he go and save my life?
[r09_0100] 'Specially after he shot the boss.
[r09_0100] ...Why help me?
[r09_0100] Rikiya.
[r09_0100] I need you to head back to Okinawa.
[r09_0100] I have some loose ends to tie up in Kamurocho.
[r09_0100] But you? There's nothing keeping you in this city.
[r09_0100] But!
[r09_0100] Look, just hear me out.
[r09_0100] Right now, we don't have a clue whether or not that man in the sketch is on our side.
[r09_0100] That's why I'm telling you to head back home. Look after Saki and the kids at Morning Glory for me.
[r09_0100] Can you do that?
[r09_0100] Yeah.
[r09_0100] What's up?
[r09_0100] What? The chairman of the Hakuho?
[r09_0100] Hey, Kiryu.
[r09_0100] You know Mine from the Hakuho Clan? Looks like he came all the way here to see you personally.
[r09_0200] There was a place like this underneath Kamurocho this whole time? Who would have thought?
[r09_0200] Well? You wanted to talk?
[r09_0200] Right, pardon me.
[r09_0200] See, all the trouble you've been facing... I'm afraid my organization is partially to blame for that.
[r09_0200] I'm here to hold myself accountable.
[r09_0200] Accountable?
[r09_0200] Yes.
[r09_0200] Kanda!?
[r09_0200] Mine... What the hell is this?
[r09_0300] Kiryu, you dirty son of a bitch!
[r09_0300] You ain't gettin' away with this!
[r09_0300] What's with that look on your face? Huh, Mine!?
[r09_0300] Don't just sit there twiddlin' your thumbs! Say something, jackoff!
[r09_0300] Aniki, this is my office. I ask that you be more respectful.
[r09_0300] You can shove your respect!
[r09_0300] If you had actually gotten off your ass and done something, I wouldn't have gotten my ass handed to me by Kiryu!
[r09_0300] I told you in the officers' meeting. I don't consider Kiryu-san my enemy.
[r09_0300] Who was the one looking for a fight? You reap what you sow.
[r09_0300] You're really chewin' me out right now!? Fuck you! Get off your high horse, dickhead!
[r09_0300] Listen up, Mine! Gimme all your cash and every one of your guys!
[r09_0300] This time for sure Kiryu ain't survivin' the night!
[r09_0300] Then I'm gonna become the seventh chairman! I'll even let ya be my captain! How 'bout it!?
[r09_0300] A fool like you can never grasp the situation.
[r09_0300] The fuck was that? I dare ya to say that shit again!
[r09_0300] The collection you just demolished... was worth over one billion yen.
[r09_0300] Like I give a damn!
[r09_0300] Ya rich bastards wipe your ass with that kinda cash!
[r09_0300] Money isn't the issue here.
[r09_0300] You just can't seem to discern worth.
[r09_0300] Wh-What was that!?
[r09_0300] Where the hell you do get off, ya fuckin' upstart!?
[r09_0300] It seems that you may have forgotten...
[r09_0300] Appearances can be deceiving. Perhaps you need a reminder.
[r09_0300] Mine...
[r09_0300] The two of us are through.
[r09_0300] And now I'll need to make up for your behavior to Kiryu-san.
[r09_0300] Don't do it here. He's made a big enough mess as it is.
[r09_0300] Yes, sir.
[r09_0300] No... No...! Mine! Wait, Mine!
[r09_0300] Mine!
[r09_0400] Ultimately, the fault lies with me for allowing Kanda to rise so far above his station.
[r09_0400] Though it was unfortunate we had to resort to violence, shall we consider this incident with the Nishikiyama Family resolved?
[r09_0400] I plan to assemble the Tojo Clan families without delay and attempt to restore order.
[r09_0400] Regarding Hamazaki, I have my men searching for him as we speak.
[r09_0400] Though... I suspect their efforts will be in vain.
[r09_0400] Why's that? Do you have some idea where he might have gone?
[r09_0400] Well... I imagine he's no longer in the country.
[r09_0400] What does that mean?
[r09_0400] The head of the Snake Flower in Japan, Lau Ka Long, is dead.
[r09_0400] Their headquarters wouldn't take that lying down.
[r09_0400] Given the fact that Hamazaki was acting as Lau's partner, they've surely kidnapped him in retaliation.
[r09_0400] As for the rest of his family... I hear their bodies were found floating in Yokohama Bay.
[r09_0400] Lau's men?
[r09_0400] In any case, the Hamazaki Family has been wiped out without us having to lift even a single finger.
[r09_0400] I plan to reach out to Snake Flower headquarters myself to prevent a war from breaking out—and any further bloodshed.
[r09_0400] Right...
[r09_0400] Kiryu-san, the Tojo Clan's on the verge of collapse. We need you now more than ever.
[r09_0400] For everyone's sake, I ask that you please watch your back.
[r09_0400] I'll take my leave.
[r09_0400] Mine.
[r09_0400] Who taught you to handle things this way?
[r09_0400] I'm not sure I follow.
[r09_0400] I'm saying, if Daigo were still calling the shots, would he tell you to pull this kind of stunt?
[r09_0400] Knowing him... I doubt it.
[r09_0400] Then why the hell—
[r09_0400] Well, Daigo-san is no longer the one issuing orders.
[r09_0400] This decision was mine and mine alone. And this is how I do things.
[r09_0400] Another thing, Kiryu-san...
[r09_0400] It'd be remiss of me not to mention that some of the blame rests on your shoulders as well.
[r09_0400] Daigo-san told me everything. You're running an orphanage in Okinawa, correct?
[r09_0400] Enjoying your new life?
[r09_0400] Unaware of the role you play in any of this.
[r09_0400] Do you think you're a savior to those children? It's pure self-indulgence.
[r09_0400] You hypocrite.
[r09_0400] What!?
[r09_0400] From now on, I'll be deciding how to move forward.
[r09_0400] Methods aside... I do intend to honor Daigo-san's will.
[r09_0400] Mine...
[r09_0400] In other words, all I've done and all I will do is for the sake of the Tojo Clan's future.
[r09_0400] I'm sure Daigo-san would have no qualms with that.
[r09_0400] Anyone who stands in my way will be eliminated.
[r09_0400] Even if that person... is one of our own.
[r09_0400] I'll never understand...
[r09_0400] ...why Daigo-san would hold a man like you in such high esteem.
[r09_0400] Mine... You've lost sight of what's truly important.
[r09_0400] Excuse me?
[r09_0400] And one day... I'll show you just what you're missing.
[r09_0400] I don't expect you will. I have nothing to learn from you.
[r09_0550] You're earlier than I expected.
[r09_0550] And who's this?
[r09_0550] Date, from the Keihin News. I'm looking into Suzuki's link with the Tojo.
[r09_0550] The famous detective turned reporter.
[r09_0550] Care for a drink?
[r09_0550] I'll pass.
[r09_0550] So you're the man who's running the orphanage on the plot they're eyeing for the resort.
[r09_0550] That's right.
[r09_0550] And because of that, Daigo Dojima turned down the land acquisition deal.
[r09_0550] What's your point?
[r09_0550] My point is... our interests in all of this are aligned.
[r09_0550] And how's that?
[r09_0550] You want to halt development on that resort, yes?
[r09_0550] Yeah, what about it?
[r09_0550] You see, I find that to be the most preferable outcome as well.
[r09_0550] Wait, what? Are you pullin' our leg here?
[r09_0550] But without the resort, wouldn't your military base expansion bill end in failure?
[r09_0550] It would...
[r09_0550] But that doesn't matter anymore.
[r09_0550] It doesn't? Why not?
[r09_0550] Well, that's simple.
[r09_0550] I never had any intention of passing that bill in the first place.
[r09_0550] What!?
[r09_0700] So while Toma and Mine try to make the resort deal happen... you and the CIA have your own objective.
[r09_0700] I'm starting to see exactly who set this up.
[r09_0700] Please... Stop Joji.
[r09_0700] Stop him? You're asking us to hinder the CIA?
[r09_0700] Correct, if that's what it takes to protect Toma.
[r09_0700] Why are they so keen on getting rid of him, though?
[r09_0700] Because he knows too much.
[r09_0700] He's aware of the CIA's involvement with this bill— as well as the fact that the bill itself is essentially all fake.
[r09_0700] And that's why the CIA's planning to shut him up.
[r09_0700] Indeed.
[r09_0700] But I have no desire to see Toma killed.
[r09_0700] Rather, I want to save both him and Joji.
[r09_0700] Hold on. Wasn't Toma the one who mucked up your plans?
[r09_0700] So why are you protecting him?
[r09_0700] Those of strong conviction will one day come to have grand ambitions...
[r09_0700] ...that they will, no doubt, make into reality.
[r09_0700] That's something I learned from my mentor.
[r09_0700] Toma is a man with a good heart.
[r09_0700] He'll make for a great politician before long.
[r09_0700] Is that all there is...?
[r09_0700] There's more to it, Date-san.
[r09_0700] Tamiya here might be rough around the edges... But he'd never abandon one of his own.
[r09_0700] He's old-fashioned like that.
[r09_0700] I get that right?
[r09_0700] All right.
[r09_0700] So stopping Toma means stopping the resort deal, too.
[r09_0700] And Kazama-san's brother and I have some unfinished business to iron out anyway.
[r09_0700] So you'll do it?
[r09_0700] Don't get me wrong.
[r09_0700] I'm not doing this for you. All I want is to protect Morning Glory.
[r09_0700] Fair enough.
[r09_0700] Then, let's do this: you keep Toma safe from Joji, and I'll ensure those resort development plans never see the light of day.
[r09_0700] You have my word.
[r09_0700] Where is Toma right now?
[r09_0700] In Okinawa—well on his way to meet with the Prefectural Assembly.
[r09_0700] I thought yakuza like you only existed in stories these days.
[r09_0700] ...But now I'll get to see the real deal.
[r09_0700] Huh? Something out there?
[r09_0700] Suzuki's "security."
[r09_0700] What?
[r09_0700] Toma must have planned this from the get-go.
[r09_0700] What do we do, Kiryu?
[r09_0700] Only right to go greet them.
[r09_0700] Don't you think so?
[r09_0700] Yes, indeed. Only proper.
[r09_0700] Since they're Suzuki's guys... should I hold back?
[r09_0700] They're essentially his personal soldiers. Do whatever it takes to get through.
[r09_0700] I'll deal with the consequences.
[r09_0700] Just one more thing...
[r09_0700] What is it?
[r09_0700] I was under the impression that all politicians aspire to become prime minister one day...
[r09_0700] But earlier you said you weren't interested. Why not?
[r09_0700] Allow me to flip the script.
[r09_0700] Can a foot soldier become chairman just because they want to?
[r09_0700] No, you have to put in the effort. You have to keep climbing step by step. Then one day, you'll find yourself at the top.
[r09_0700] Am I wrong?
[r09_0700] You make a good point.
[r09_0700] Hoo boy...
[r09_0700] Ready to go?
[r09_0700] Yeah.
[r09_0700] Damn... That's one hell of a crowd.
[r09_0700] Date-san, leave these guys to me. You go sneak out the back.
[r09_0700] What?
[r09_0700] You're media, remember?
[r09_0700] Show 'em your business card, and they ought to let you through.
[r09_0700] But then you'll be...
[r09_0700] If I don't make it out of this...
[r09_0700] Tell Majima-san everything we learned from Tamiya just now.
[r09_0700] Kiryu...
[r09_0700] Now go!
[r09_0800] Dammit... There's no end to these guys.
[r09_0800] Kiryu-chan! Where'd ya go!?
[r09_0800] Over here!
[r09_0800] Oh, thank god! For a second, I thought I squished ya flat like a bug!
[r09_0800] C'mon, hop on in!
[r10_0100] Yoshitaka!
[r10_0100] Hey, Yoshitaka!
[r10_0100] Dad...
[r10_0100] Where have you been, young man? Do you even know what time it is!?
[r10_0100] Huh? Oh, um...
[r10_0100] I was playing ball with my friends.
[r10_0100] You were? And here I was, all worked up since it was getting dark out!
[r10_0100] Oh. Dad, look at this, I got the highest grade on the test today...
[r10_0100] Did you now? You are one smart kid, Yoshitaka!
[r10_0100] Hey, guys... Can I play too?
[r10_0100] Why should we? You don't even have a bat or a glove!
[r10_0100] No way we'd play with a poor kid like you!
[r10_0100] Dad...
[r10_0100] Wake up, please! Don't die!
[r10_0100] Yoshitaka...
[r10_0100] Dad!
[r10_0100] Listen...
[r10_0100] Listen to me, Yoshitaka...
[r10_0100] You've always been a bright kid...
[r10_0100] Don't let that mind go to waste.
[r10_0100] You make something of yourself.
[r10_0100] Dad...
[r10_0100] I'm sorry...
[r10_0100] I can't be there for you.
[r10_0100] Dad!
[r10_0100] Who is it?
[r10_0100] Katase, sir.
[r10_0100] Come in.
[r10_0100] Pardon me.
[r10_0100] I've booked you a flight from Haneda to Okinawa.
[r10_0100] It departs in an hour and a half.
[r10_0100] Then let's go.
[r10_0100] Chairman...
[r10_0100] What is it?
[r10_0100] Never mind. It's nothing.
[r10_0100] It's just... Well, you've been working yourself awfully hard lately.
[r10_0100] If something happened to you, I... I...
[r10_0100] Don't give me that look. I'll be fine.
[r10_0200] In a further development regarding the commotion at the National Diet Building yesterday,
[r10_0200] the police released a statement, alleging it was instigated by opponents of Okinawa's military base expansion bill.
[r10_0200] I've heard enough.
[r10_0200] The police are now on high alert and patrolling the area, in search of the people behind the disturbance...
[r10_0200] Oh... Sure.
[r10_0300] Uncle Kaz!
[r10_0300] Nakahara...
[r10_0300] Is it all right for you to be up and about already?
[r10_0300] Sat on my ass long enough, Brother.
[r10_0400] I'm the freaking savior of Okinawa, baby!
[r10_0400] Wow!
[r10_0400] The island's future is brighter than ever! Everyone's gonna remember the legend of Toma!
[r10_0400] Well? Impressive, aren't I?
[r10_0400] I know I am!
[r10_0400] Don't shoot!
[r10_0400] Tamiya told me everything.
[r10_0400] And why you're about to put a bullet between Toma's eyes.
[r10_0400] He also asked me to stop you and save the kid.
[r10_0400] Even if the CIA did put a hit on Toma's head, I doubt you wanted to go through with any of this.
[r10_0400] The CIA?
[r10_0400] That means... Oh god.
[r10_0400] Minister Tamiya wants me dead!
[r10_0400] You're serious...
[r10_0400] You really mean to kill Toma?
[r10_0400] Kazuma Kiryu, was it?
[r10_0400] You were once yakuza, so you should understand.
[r10_0400] When your patriarch gives you an order, you do it.
[r10_0400] Your point?
[r10_0400] The CIA is my "patriarch."
[r10_0400] If they say I need to take out a target, then I will— no matter who it is. Simple as that.
[r10_0400] I'll see you again... in hell.
[r10_0400] Run!
[r10_0400] What do you think you're doing?
[r10_0400] I saved Toma. Now it's your turn.
[r10_0400] I promised Tamiya I would.
[r10_0400] Tamiya, huh? That man's as soft-hearted as ever.
[r10_0400] I won't stand by and let you take another life. Not if I can help it.
[r10_0400] I'm merely following orders.
[r10_0400] If you want to stop me... you know what comes next.
[r10_0400] We fight.
[r10_0400] Only way to stop you is to win. I get that right?
[r10_0400] I understand why my brother took a shine to you.
[r10_0400] You're brighter than you look.
[r10_0400] But his blood flows through my veins.
[r10_0400] Can you truly bring yourself to strike me?
[r10_0400] Can't say.
[r10_0400] But blood isn't everything.
[r10_0400] The bond that Kazama-san and I shared...
[r10_0400] ran deeper than that.
[r10_0400] You'll have to show me, then, just how strong it is.
[r10_0400] Here and now...
[r10_0400] Kazuma Kiryu!
[r10_0400] C'mon, ladies, drinks are on me!
[r10_0400] He told me why you shot Nakahara and Daigo...
[r10_0400] He's gonna... kill me!?
[r10_0400] Don't move.
[r10_0500] Seems I've grown far too old for tussling...
[r10_0500] If you were any younger... I'm not so sure I would've won.
[r10_0500] But you did.
[r10_0500] I'll do as Tamiya said... and stay away from that boy over there. You've my word.
[r10_0500] Over where...?
[r10_0500] Toma.
[r10_0500] Kiryu-san.
[r10_0500] Did Minister Tamiya really ask you to help me?
[r10_0500] That's right.
[r10_0500] But why?
[r10_0500] I just don't understand why... why on earth he would want to save me.
[r10_0500] What makes you say that?
[r10_0500] I abandoned his cause and handed in my resignation for my own agenda...
[r10_0500] I even shared intel that'd be detrimental to his plan.
[r10_0500] After all that, there's no way he'd forgive me.
[r10_0500] He would—because he cares about you.
[r10_0500] He does?
[r10_0500] He does.
[r10_0500] How...?
[r10_0500] I betrayed him and supported Mine!
[r10_0500] That doesn't matter—not to Tamiya. He doesn't give a damn about that.
[r10_0500] If you ask me, Tamiya's proud of you—
[r10_0500] for sticking to your principles.
[r10_0500] He is...?
[r10_0500] Truth is... Part of me knew all along.
[r10_0500] That I was being used like a puppet... by Suzuki and Mine both, however they saw fit.
[r10_0500] Even worse, I ended up causing trouble—
[r10_0500] and for the one person I looked up to!
[r10_0500] But... I just couldn't stand by idly anymore. I had to do something!
[r10_0500] It's true.
[r10_0500] Okinawa needs a source of revenue that will sustain her local economy. The resort plan is vital to her growth.
[r10_0500] To that end, I don't care what happens to me.
[r10_0500] So what if I get used by the wrong people? Or drag Minister Tamiya's name through the mud?
[r10_0500] As long as Okinawa can prosper, then... then...!
[r10_0500] You know, Tamiya's told me a lot about you... About how much you love Okinawa.
[r10_0500] And even about how he thinks that, one day, you'll make a great politician.
[r10_0500] Sir...
[r10_0500] Minister Tamiya...
[r10_0500] I'm sorry...
[r10_0500] I'm so sorry!
[r11_0100] How long was I out for?
[r11_0100] Hm... I'd say about an hour or so.
[r11_0100] And the boy?
[r11_0100] Taking the last flight back to Tokyo. He said he wants to apologize to Tamiya in person.
[r11_0100] Good.
[r11_0100] He and Tamiya are pretty similar. Two men driven by emotion.
[r11_0100] No wonder Tamiya took a liking to him.
[r11_0200] So... Where is Daigo right now?
[r11_0200] In Tokyo.
[r11_0200] He's recuperating at Touto Hospital.
[r11_0200] Touto? But that's practically on Kamurocho's doorstep.
[r11_0200] Unfortunately. CIA headquarters only managed to pin down his location a few hours ago.
[r11_0200] I just found out myself.
[r11_0200] If Mine's already made his move, I'm afraid we may be too late.
[r11_0200] You're going, then?
[r11_0200] Yeah. If I hurry, I should be able to catch the last flight.
[r11_0200] Uncle Kaz! You here, Uncle Kaz!?
[r11_0200] Uncle Kaz!
[r11_0200] Things are getting bad! Real bad! Uncle Kaz!
[r11_0200] What is it? What happened!?
[r11_0200] It's Morning Glory!
[r11_0200] Taichi! What are you doing here!?
[r11_0200] Morning Glory is... is...!
[r11_0300] The hell?
[r11_0300] Get outta here! The Tamashiro got nothin' to do with this place!
[r11_0300] Rikiya! Mikio!
[r11_0300] You call this place your home?
[r11_0300] Cute. Still, seeing you children leech off someone's generosity...
[r11_0300] It makes me sick to my stomach.
[r11_0300] Did you think that, just because you're strays, you deserve protection?
[r11_0300] You'd be better off put down.
[r11_0300] Well, I suppose you could pin the blame for all of this on that hypocrite.
[r11_0300] In a way...
[r11_0300] You're all Kiryu-san's unwitting victims.
[r11_0300] Tear it down.
[r11_0300] No!
[r11_0300] Move it!
[r11_0300] No! Don't break it!
[r11_0300] Izumi!
[r11_0300] No! Stop!
[r11_0300] Please!
[r11_0300] Shut up, you fuckin' brat!
[r11_0300] Stop! Don't do it!
[r11_0300] Miki-chan!
[r11_0300] Mikio!
[r11_0300] The hell're you doin', man?
[r11_0300] Gettin' in...
[r11_0300] ...your way, man...
[r11_0300] Mikio!
[r11_0300] What are you waiting for, coward!?
[r11_0300] Just crush 'em both!
[r11_0300] Yes, sir!
[r11_0300] Mikio! That's enough! Just run!
[r11_0300] Damn it...
[r11_0300] Miki-chan!
[r11_0300] Sorry, I'm not... strong enough.
[r11_0300] Miki-chan! Miki-chan!
[r11_0300] Shit!
[r11_0300] Mikio!
[r11_0300] Not so fast.
[r11_0300] We got some unfinished business, you and me.
[r11_0300] Tamashiro!
[r11_0300] Could've sworn you croaked, old man. Guess you're tougher than you look.
[r11_0300] Tamashiro...
[r11_0300] If it's me you're after, just end it already.
[r11_0300] But the kids have nothing to do with this!
[r11_0300] Spare them! Spare this orphanage, please!
[r11_0300] I'm beggin' you!
[r11_0300] Oh, you could do much better than that.
[r11_0300] Don't think I've forgotten what you did to me last year—
[r11_0300] You old fuck!
[r11_0300] Boss!
[r11_0300] We're gonna have a nice long talk later, just the two of us.
[r11_0300] After I tear this place to the ground, that is.
[r11_0300] What'd you say!?
[r11_0300] C'mon! Bring it in!
[r11_0300] No! Stop!
[r11_0400] Uncle Kaz, you gotta come back right away!
[r11_0400] All right.
[r11_0400] Things are real bad!
[r11_0500] Uncle Kaz.
[r11_0500] Uncle Kaz!
[r11_0500] We were so scared!
[r11_0500] Give me a second.
[r11_0500] Aniki...
[r11_0500] How's Mikio?
[r11_0500] Mikio...
[r11_0500] Mikio!
[r11_0500] Mikio!
[r11_0500] Mikio!
[r11_0500] Sir...
[r11_0500] I'm so sorry...
[r11_0500] I couldn't stop 'em...
[r11_0500] It's fine! None of this is your fault. You did all you could.
[r11_0500] Sir...
[r11_0500] What is it?
[r11_0500] Please...
[r11_0500] Please... save the boss.
[r11_0500] I will.
[r11_0500] I'll bring Nakahara back, I swear it!
[r11_0500] Glad to... hear it.
[r11_0500] Mikio?
[r11_0500] Mikio?
[r11_0500] Wake up, Mikio!
[r11_0500] Damn it!
[r11_0500] No... No! Miki-chan!
[r11_0500] Mikio!
[r11_0600] Hello?
[r11_0600] You mean it!?
[r11_0600] Right. Yes.
[r11_0600] Okay, got it!
[r11_0600] Thank you so much.
[r11_0600] Keep us updated!
[r11_0600] It's Mikio.
[r11_0600] He's gonna pull through.
[r11_0600] That's great news...
[r11_0600] That's good to hear...
[r11_0600] Well then... It's about time I get going.
[r11_0600] To bring the boss home?
[r11_0600] Yeah.
[r11_0600] So after wrecking my orphanage, they took Nakahara to the bullring outside Downtown Ryukyu, right?
[r11_0600] Right. Tamashiro's been usin' it as a hideout for 'bout a year or so now.
[r11_0600] Got it.
[r11_0600] Aniki. Take me with you. Please.
[r11_0600] No.
[r11_0600] You've been shot. Only place you're going is the hospital.
[r11_0600] But, Aniki!
[r11_0600] Don't make me repeat myself!
[r11_0600] If you come with me now, you'll die a pointless death.
[r11_0600] Aniki...
[r11_0600] This isn't like when you followed me to Kamurocho.
[r11_0600] This time, I have to go alone.
[r11_0600] But I'm... I'm the captain of the Ryudo Family!
[r11_0600] They hurt my brother, took my patriarch... And you expect me to hang back and do nothing!?
[r11_0600] Please... I need this.
[r11_0600] I need to prove that I can be someone!
[r11_0600] I know where you're coming from, but...
[r11_0600] Now's not the time for that.
[r11_0600] Putting your life on the line doesn't give it any meaning. You're just throwing it away.
[r11_0600] There will come a time when you can show the world what you're made of.
[r11_0600] And when it does, you don't hold back. Give 'em hell.
[r11_0600] For now... just trust me.
[r11_0700] You again?
[r11_0700] Just the guy I wanted to see!
[r11_0700] Where's Nakahara!?
[r11_0700] Easy, boy. Don't get so antsy.
[r11_0700] Lemme enjoy this reunion a bit first.
[r11_0700] You know, when Chairman Mine told me there was a chance we'd be meeting again...
[r11_0700] I got goosebumps from head to toe.
[r11_0700] And where is Mine?
[r11_0700] Still in Okinawa?
[r11_0700] Long gone by now. He's back in Tokyo.
[r11_0700] My only job was wrecking your shithole of an orphanage...
[r11_0700] That, and keeping you pinned down here.
[r11_0700] If you kick the bucket, the Hakuho will make me a billionaire.
[r11_0700] And if I wipe out the Ryudo too, all of Okinawa will be mine at long last.
[r11_0700] Damn you...
[r11_0700] Now then, we got all the time in the world.
[r11_0700] Let's take it slow and have ourselves a little fun.
[r11_0700] Nakahara!
[r11_0700] Kiryu!
[r11_0700] Ain't this a match for the ages?
[r11_0700] On one side, an old bullheaded yakuza. On the other, some old bulls!
[r11_0700] I'm just dying of anticipation.
[r11_0700] Tamashiro, you bastard!
[r11_0700] Not so fast!
[r11_0700] Did you know? Bulls are real sensitive to the sound of gunfire.
[r11_0700] All it takes is one little "bang!" and they'll tear your buddy Nakahara to bits.
[r11_0700] So what's your move?
[r11_0700] Nakahara can sit tight for now.
[r11_0700] He'll have plenty of time to play with his new pals after I'm through smearing your guts all over the ground.
[r11_0700] Not on my watch!
[r11_0700] Huh? Who's there!?
[r11_0700] Sorry 'bout this, Aniki! Don't get mad!
[r11_0700] It's my fault...
[r11_0700] I didn't notice the little lady sneakin' out on her own!
[r11_0700] Rikiya!
[r11_0700] Saki!
[r11_0700] The hell you want, another bullet in the leg!?
[r11_0700] Tamashiro! The cops are already on their way!
[r11_0700] In ten minutes they'll have every damn corner of this place covered!
[r11_0700] What!?
[r11_0700] You heard me! The boss and Aniki ain't got time to deal with a scumbag like you!
[r11_0700] You little shit.
[r11_0700] That's how it's gonna be?
[r11_0700] You really wanna watch dear ol' Nakahara bite the dust, don't you?
[r11_0700] Fine. You want it that bad...
[r11_0700] Then let's get this show on the road!
[r11_0700] It's the end of the line, Nakahara! For you and your pathetic Ryudo boys!
[r11_0700] Boss!
[r11_0700] Nakahara!
[r11_0700] Dad!
[r11_0700] Young Miss!
[r11_0700] Dad, look out!
[r11_0700] Boss!
[r11_0700] Nakahara!
[r11_0700] The fuck!?
[r11_0700] Tamashiro! I haven't felt this alive in ages!
[r11_0700] Like I'm a snot-nosed brat again, painting this town red!
[r11_0700] Kiryu!
[r11_0700] Don't worry! I'll be fine!
[r11_0700] You go deal with Tamashiro!
[r11_0700] Got it!
[r11_0700] Rikiya!
[r11_0700] Yeah?
[r11_0700] How much longer do we have until the cops show up?
[r11_0700] Seven, eight minutes!
[r11_0700] Good.
[r11_0700] That gives us just enough time to clean up shop and take out the trash.
[r11_0700] Right!
[r11_0700] But only just. There's no time to waste.
[r11_0700] Which means we'll need to make this quick.
[r11_0700] Works for me.
[r11_0700] You hear that, boys? Fuck 'em up!
[r11_0800] Glad to see I'm not the only one beat here. Guess we're both over the hill.
[r11_0800] Speak for yourself.
[r11_0800] Saki.
[r11_0800] You found... your voice.
[r11_0800] I'm so sorry for making you worry.
[r11_0800] Rikiya!
[r11_0800] Turning your back on an enemy? Amateur move.
[r11_0800] And now...
[r11_0800] It's your turn to die!
[r11_0800] It looks like I was too late.
[r11_0800] Rikiya!
[r11_0800] I think... he got me.
[r11_0800] Aniki.
[r11_0800] How... How's it look? Not so hot?
[r11_0800] You'll be fine! Just fine!
[r11_0800] It's nothing—just a scratch!
[r11_0800] Hey! Hang in there! Please!
[r11_0800] Aniki.
[r11_0800] Does... this count...
[r11_0800] as throwing my life away?
[r11_0800] I... I saved you...
[r11_0800] ...just now... didn't I?
[r11_0800] And that's...
[r11_0800] That's good enough...
[r11_0800] ...good enough for me.
[r11_0800] Rikiya, please.
[r11_0800] Aniki...
[r11_0800] We had some good times.
[r11_0800] I'm glad we met.
[r11_0800] Hey, Rikiya.
[r11_0800] Don't talk like that!
[r11_0800] So, did I... did I prove...
[r11_0800] ...that my life meant something, after all?
[r11_0800] Rikiya!
[r11_0800] Ani...ki...
[r11_0800] You are...
[r11_0800] a great man.
[r11_0800] The best I've ever known.
[r11_0800] Rikiya.
[r11_0800] Just... promise me...
[r11_0800] You won't let... that asshole Mine...
[r11_0800] Mine?
[r11_0800] What about him!?
[r11_0800] Don't... Don't let him win.
[r11_0800] I won't!
[r11_0800] Just don't go! Please, Rikiya!
[r11_0800] Stay with me!
[r11_0800] I'm sorry...
[r11_0800] Ani...ki...
[r11_0800] Rikiya?
[r11_0800] No! Rikiya!
[r11_0800] Come on!
[r11_0800] You can't die on me, Rikiya!
[r11_0800] I won't...
[r11_0800] I won't let you! Get up! You hear me, Rikiya!?
[r11_0800] Say something!
[r11_0800] Rikiya!
[r12_0100] We will arrive in approximately ten minutes.
[r12_0100] Please remain seated with your seatbelt fastened until we have safely landed.
[r12_0100] Man, I'd give anything to see the look on Kiryu's face right about now.
[r12_0100] Yeah, I bet he regrets ever messing with the Hakuho Clan.
[r12_0100] Damn right. Been a long time coming, but from here on out, it's Chairman Mine's era.
[r12_0100] Think we've earned ourselves a little party once we're back in Tokyo.
[r12_0100] Why's that?
[r12_0100] Well, at this point everyone knows the boss will wind up the seventh chairman.
[r12_0100] And now that Kiryu's snuffed out for good, what better time to celebrate his inauguration?
[r12_0100] True that.
[r12_0100] Plus, it'll make the boss happy.
[r12_0100] But the sixth chairman sure is quick to let his guard down.
[r12_0100] It's no surprise he got a bullet in his chest.
[r12_0100] I'm with you there. Kid like him had no business leading the clan in the first place.
[r12_0100] Was only ever riding his father's coattails, you know.
[r12_0100] Though I figure he's as good as dead now.
[r12_0100] Might as well pull the plug.
[r12_0100] Say that again?
[r12_0100] Oh, Chairman! We were just thinking about throwing ourselves a party.
[r12_0100] Why's that? Did something good happen?
[r12_0100] Of course, it's—
[r12_0100] Go on, enlighten me!
[r12_0100] You think the sixth chairman's death is something to celebrate!?
[r12_0100] Well!? You feel like celebrating now!?
[r12_0200] Well, that explains it... You've got your own jet. No wonder you could travel between Okinawa and Tokyo so fast.
[r12_0200] Right you are.
[r12_0200] One way trip clocks in under an hour.
[r12_0200] Are you sure you're ready to depart?
[r12_0200] I am. I have to keep my promise with Rikiya.
[r12_0200] That means dealing with Mine myself.
[r12_0200] Thanks for everything.
[r12_0200] What are you doing?
[r12_0200] The two of us have yet to accomplish anything.
[r12_0200] Once you stop Mine, and once I capture Richardson...
[r12_0200] Then, and only then, will I shake your hand.
[r12_0200] Now go.
[r12_0200] It'll be just you and the girl?
[r12_0200] Yeah.
[r12_0200] You're coming with me, right, Haruka?
[r12_0200] Mhm!
[r12_0200] I won't be far behind.
[r12_0200] After you locate Dojima, make your way up to the roof.
[r12_0200] I'll send a rescue helicopter your way.
[r12_0200] Got it.
[r12_0200] Be careful, you hear?
[r12_0200] Yeah. See you on the roof.
[r12_0300] Sixth Chairman.
[r12_0300] Sir, it's Mr. Richardson.
[r12_0300] Hello?
[r12_0300] Okay. Got it.
[r12_0300] No.
[r12_0300] There's no change in the plan.
[r12_0300] Bye.
[r12_0300] Kiryu-san has left Okinawa.
[r12_0300] He'll be joining us here soon enough.
[r12_0300] What should we do about him?
[r12_0300] Nothing—why bother?
[r12_0300] Once they arrive... that will be the end of it.
[r12_0400] Hey, Uncle Kaz?
[r12_0400] What is it?
[r12_0400] You came all this way to save Daigo-san, didn't you?
[r12_0400] Then why did you ask me to come with you this time?
[r12_0400] You usually make me stay at home even when I beg to go.
[r12_0400] Uncle Kaz...
[r12_0400] You think you might die, don't you!?
[r12_0400] Is that why you decided to bring me with you? Because you know you might not come back!?
[r12_0400] Haruka... I'm so sorry.
[r12_0400] Huh?
[r12_0400] I just wanted to visit Kamurocho with you one last time.
[r12_0400] Uncle Kaz...
[r12_0400] I didn't consider how you'd feel about this.
[r12_0400] I didn't consider how you'd feel about this.
[r12_0400] Maybe I should have left you at home and just—
[r12_0400] It's okay.
[r12_0400] I... I'm happy I'm here.
[r12_0400] Haruka.
[r12_0400] I really am.
[r12_0400] Thank you, Uncle Kaz.
[r12_0500] I take it you're Hakuho men.
[r12_0500] I'm in a hurry here. Out of the way.
[r12_0500] All right...
[r12_0500] Fine. Anyone who wants to die, step up!
[r12_0600] You again.
[r12_0600] Why are you here?
[r12_0600] Looks like you're a little late.
[r12_0600] You just missed him.
[r12_0600] If I had known it would come to this...
[r12_0600] I would've killed you when we first met.
[r12_0600] What?
[r12_0600] Where's Daigo? What did you do with him!?
[r12_0600] If you're looking for Daigo, Mine's taken him up to the roof.
[r12_0600] The roof, huh?
[r12_0600] Let me guess. The only way I'm getting there... is going through you.
[r12_0600] You're welcome to try.
[r12_0600] This is the end of the line for you, Kazuma Kiryu!
[r12_0700] Mine!
[r12_0700] So you made it all the way here. I knew you would.
[r12_0700] I'm glad to see you, Kiryu-san.
[r12_0700] Spare me the small talk! Mine... What are you planning to do to Daigo!?
[r12_0700] You want to kill him, don't you? So you can take control of the Tojo Clan.
[r12_0700] An interesting theory.
[r12_0700] But, honestly, I couldn't care less about that. Things weren't supposed to turn out this way.
[r12_0700] What the hell does that mean? Explain yourself!
[r12_0700] You know, Kiryu-san...
[r12_0700] For what it's worth, I am genuinely worried about Daigo-san—
[r12_0700] I mean, the sixth chairman.
[r12_0700] What!?
[r12_0700] My entire life, no one believed in me.
[r12_0700] That is, until the day I met him.
[r12_0700] Kiryu-san.
[r12_0700] You are aware that Kanda is the one who brought me into the yakuza world, yes?
[r12_0700] So?
[r12_0700] Well, what if I told you I bribed him to let me join?
[r12_0700] To make my way in, I needed a fool fresh out of prison. And Kanda just happened to fit the bill. Almost to a T.
[r12_0700] Why would you stoop that low to join the yakuza?
[r12_0700] You see, just like you...
[r12_0700] I was an orphan.
[r12_0700] What!?
[r12_0700] Alone in this world from the moment I was born.
[r12_0700] The only childhood memories I have... are ones of survival.
[r12_0700] Like one of those children scavenging the ruins of post-war Tokyo.
[r12_0700] It's hard to believe such poverty still exists nowadays.
[r12_0700] You know what I went through.
[r12_0700] Loved by no one. Needed by no one. No companion save for your own loneliness.
[r12_0700] I needed to make something of myself.
[r12_0700] If I had wealth, prestige... that meant I could be someone.
[r12_0700] I worked harder than anyone else.
[r12_0700] I endured more than anyone else.
[r12_0700] Do you know why?
[r12_0700] It was all for the money.
[r12_0700] From the minute I made wealth my goal, I dedicated every waking moment to obtaining everything—and then some.
[r12_0700] Until, finally, there was nothing I couldn't buy.
[r12_0700] No woman I couldn't have.
[r12_0700] And my employees? They would gladly follow any order I gave them.
[r12_0700] But I came to a realization.
[r12_0700] None of that... was real.
[r12_0700] How's that?
[r12_0700] Don't you see? Humans, by nature, are all selfish liars.
[r12_0700] No matter how many people swear they'll stand by you, every one of them will abandon ship sooner or later.
[r12_0700] Having experienced that myself made me wonder.
[r12_0700] Is it even possible to form a meaningful connection with someone?
[r12_0700] It was then that I learned of a world in which the bonds between men ruled supreme.
[r12_0700] By that, you mean the yakuza.
[r12_0700] Correct. So I decided... I needed to see for myself whether or not such bonds truly did exist.
[r12_0700] Bribing Kanda was simple. Soon enough, I found myself part of the infamous Tojo Clan.
[r12_0700] Then not long after that...
[r12_0700] I met Daigo-san.
[r12_0700] And, despite my lack of experience in the yakuza— No, despite the fact that I was but an empty shell,
[r12_0700] he welcomed me with open arms.
[r12_0700] Though he wasn't much older than me...
[r12_0700] I could tell he was a cut above the rest— a leader with born charisma.
[r12_0700] He was the first person I had ever devoted myself to.
[r12_0700] Then why? Why are you doing this?
[r12_0700] The truth is, Kiryu-san...
[r12_0700] If Daigo-san were still alive, I never would have gotten involved in all of this.
[r12_0700] But now? What changed?
[r12_0700] Now... Daigo-san is as good as dead.
[r12_0700] My life lost all meaning. He was my only guiding light. Without him, I had no path to follow.
[r12_0700] So I decided to carve one myself.
[r12_0700] Absurd as it may seem, I crave power so that no one could possibly deny me.
[r12_0700] So you started working with Black Monday.
[r12_0700] Correct.
[r12_0700] I don't understand. Daigo's right there! He's still breathing!
[r12_0700] He's nothing more than a tangle of tubes now.
[r12_0700] Barely human.
[r12_0700] Don't do it, Mine!
[r12_0700] This isn't the Daigo-san I once knew. That man is long dead.
[r12_0700] I can't... I can't bear to see him like this anymore.
[r12_0700] Mine.
[r12_0700] Listen. You ever consider you have it all wrong?
[r12_0700] If someone is clinging to life, desperate to hold on, doesn't that mean their life's worth something?
[r12_0700] You follow me?
[r12_0700] Daigo is fighting tooth and nail to survive... But rather than waiting for him to wake up, you're just going to give up and kill him?
[r12_0700] I knew you'd say something like that.
[r12_0700] Did you now?
[r12_0700] I suppose that's one of the reasons Daigo-san respected you so much.
[r12_0700] But not me... Nice guys like you who always try to do right by others fucking disgust me!
[r12_0700] Why do you do it!?
[r12_0700] You were an orphan, just like me!
[r12_0700] How can you keep up this pathetic charade!?
[r12_0700] There are two things left for me to do.
[r12_0700] First, to put the only man I've ever admired out of his misery.
[r12_0700] Second, to murder the very man he held in high esteem.
[r12_0700] Then, once I stand at the top of the Tojo Clan, my life will have meaning—
[r12_0700] And what exactly will that get you?
[r12_0700] Excuse me?
[r12_0700] You don't understand a damn thing.
[r12_0700] I think I see why everyone deserted you. It's as plain as day.
[r12_0700] What the hell would you know!?
[r12_0700] What about all the people who turned their back on you? Do you still resent them?
[r12_0700] Of course I do! Money's all those heartless bastards live for! All that they'd die for!
[r12_0700] I'd slit their throats if they were here now!
[r12_0700] Got a problem with that!?
[r12_0700] You're no different from them.
[r12_0700] You're all the same. You let money control your lives. Never stopped to face those around you.
[r12_0700] People like you only care about themselves. The reason you don't trust anyone is because you can't.
[r12_0700] That's why you've always been alone.
[r12_0700] Shut your mouth!
[r12_0700] But Daigo welcomed you with open arms. You know why? Because he trusted you.
[r12_0700] And when you began to trust him, you—
[r12_0700] Shut up!
[r12_0700] What do you think you're doing!?
[r12_0700] I could stand here and talk all night, but nothing I say will get through your head.
[r12_0700] So that's why I'll teach you what I mean.
[r12_0700] The only way I know how.
[r12_0700] Even when your whole world's at stake, you still refuse to back down.
[r12_0700] Have it your way.
[r12_0700] If you think I'd be swayed by mere sentiment... then you're welcome to try. Go on, teach me a lesson.
[r12_0700] But fair warning—I won't go down easy.
[r12_0700] Not even to a legend like you.
[r12_0700] Kiryu-san.
[r12_0700] This will be your last battle.
[r12_0700] Make the most of it.
[r12_0700] Don't bother wasting your breath.
[r12_0700] I don't plan on holding back!
[r12_0700] Enough talk!
[r12_0700] Kiryu!
[r12_0800] That's it, then... It's over.
[r12_0800] ...I lost.
[r12_0800] Katase speaking.
[r12_0800] What?
[r12_0800] Sir? Is something the matter?
[r12_0800] It's nothing.
[r12_0800] Chairman, I... I've been so worried.
[r12_0800] You know, you're the only one...
[r12_0800] ...who'd care.
[r12_0800] I need your advice, sir. I'm not sure what to do.
[r12_0800] We've received an offer on the Dubai stock deal. Ten times the original market value.
[r12_0800] Our European creditors have heard the news and reached out. They're requesting to meet with you, but your schedule's packed...
[r12_0800] Money, huh?
[r12_0800] Looks like, in the end... that's all I have left.
[r12_0800] Even after reaching the top.
[r12_0800] I never relied on anyone. Never trusted anyone.
[r12_0800] Only the power of money.
[r12_0800] Chairman, this deal could bring you billions!
[r12_0800] Chairman! You need to make a decision.
[r12_0800] But I suppose... it's only natural to want to trust others.
[r12_0800] And to be trusted in return.
[r12_0800] Maybe that's all anyone really needs.
[r12_0800] Right, Kiryu?
[r12_0800] Sir! My apologies, but if we don't respond soon, there's a chance they may retract the offer!
[r12_0800] Please, sir! Answer me! Chairman—
[r12_0800] Strange...
[r12_0800] Why do I feel so at peace right now?
[r12_0800] Is this how it feels when...
[r12_0800] ...your world comes crashing down?
[r12_0800] Mine.
[r12_0800] Long as you still breathe, you can always start fresh.
[r12_0800] It's never too late to change.
[r12_0800] Now they come.
[r12_0800] Damn it... What are the CIA doing here?
[r12_0800] None of them are actually CIA.
[r12_0800] It's merely a cover.
[r12_0800] They're all part of Black Monday.
[r12_0800] Then, that man is...
[r12_0800] Yes.
[r12_0800] Andre Richardson.
[r12_0800] Their leader...
[r12_0800] That's right. He's the one who told me that you were on your way here.
[r12_0800] They knew every move the CIA and Kazama tried to pull.
[r12_0800] I'm afraid your role in all this has come to an end.
[r12_0800] The hell? What are these guys plotting?
[r12_0800] They'll kill us and find someone else who can pass the military base expansion bill.
[r12_0800] In other words...
[r12_0800] I've outlived my usefulness to them.
[r12_0800] Oh, there are plenty of people who could replace you.
[r12_0800] Unfortunately...
[r12_0800] You both know far too much for me to let either of you live.
[r12_0800] Die.
[r12_0800] What!?
[r12_0800] What the fuck!?
[r12_0800] Don't forget... I'm still here! You hear me!?
[r12_0800] Dammit!
[r12_0800] Daigo!
[r12_0800] Daigo...
[r12_0800] Kiryu-san...
[r12_0800] Are you okay?
[r12_0800] That's... my line.
[r12_0800] What happened here?
[r12_0800] Mine?
[r12_0800] Mine... Hey, what's wrong? Are you hurt?
[r12_0800] That was a close one, huh? But everything's okay now.
[r12_0800] Chairman...
[r12_0800] Persistent bastard.
[r12_0800] I won't let it end like this. I'll kill you all!
[r12_0800] Die, goddamn you! Die!
[r12_0800] Stop! Stop!
[r12_0800] Chairman. I want to apologize.
[r12_0800] Mine! Get away from there! Don't do it! Come back here!
[r12_0800] The man that I've become... has no right to be with you.
[r12_0800] Mine!
[r12_0800] Kiryu-san.
[r12_0800] I might be a sorry excuse for a yakuza...
[r12_0800] But I still know how to uphold my code of honor.
[r12_0800] Mine!
[r12_0800] Stop it! Are you insane?!
[r12_0800] Kiryu-san, I wish we could have met sooner. There's a lot I've yet to learn from you.
[r12_0800] Mine...!
[r12_0800] Maybe in my next life...
[r12_0800] I'll be able to stand by your side.
[r12_0800] Don't do this, Mine!
[r12_0800] Mine!
[r12_0800] Uncle Kaz!
[r12_0800] Kiryu-san.
[r12_0800] Tell me the truth. The traitor in the Tojo Clan...
[r12_0800] Was it Mine all along?
[r12_0800] No. Not a chance.
[r12_0800] Trust me, man like him, he would have never betrayed you.
[r12_0800] I know for a fact... His heart was with you till the very end.
