JULY 23, 2005
The brakes are iffy.
They're busted.
Why'd you stop, man?
What's that?
- Huh? - Huh?
Bro!
Hey!
We better move this before--
Hey!
What the hell you doin'? What are you doing?
We gotta check it.
- Heave-ho! - You scared me!
- It stinks. - Who are you guys?
Hey.
That Demon's a gloomy bastard.
Barely says more than a mumble.
You sure about him?
His tip was on the money. Don't complain.
I don't like the idea of being used by some faceless freak. You hear me?
- Quit whining. He paid us an advance. - Get outta my way!
We just turn them in now. Easy billion yen.
What's so easy about it?
Shit.
Stop lookin' at me. I could kill you.
Huh?
Here.
Huh?
What is it?
What the hell?
Holy shit.
Seriously. Holy shit.
Is this all cash?
This is way more than a billion.
Listen, you scum.
Lay a finger on the Omi's money and you're dead.
You'll be hunted down like dogs!
Shut the fuck up!
What the hell?
Go be a chicken on your own then.
If I'm getting killed anyways,
I at least want a vacation home or two in Hawaii.
Our families are looking all over for us...
LIKE A DRAGON: YAKUZA
OSAKA JULY 29, 2005
This must be it.
We'll have to trust the Florist's intel to find those two.
Is Oishi really in a place like this?
I hope Aiko's with him too.
Shut up, asshole!
No one's there.
Upstairs has been empty since the fire.
Wasn't arson. I didn't do it.
Know where he went?
Who knows?
Got a lighter, mister?
Let's go.
Are you listening? I can't stand this place!
When are you coming home?
I'll be home soon, so hang in there.
But I don't like the food my sitter makes.
I'm hungry for takeout.
Don't be like that.
Be good, or I won't get you a souvenir.
But her origami's weird,
and she can't teach me like my mom does.
I'm so bored!
Just practice on your own.
Especially since your mom's so good.
- Forget it. Bye. - Okay, bye.
How was she?
Same as usual,
just complaining about her sitter.
Guess we just have to look for places Oishi might be.
Like a bar he's a regular at or something.
Heaven's Bar.
What's that?
It's where I first met Oishi.
With Miho.
Mister, you got a lighter?
- Hello. - Don't move.
- Quit struggling. - Shut up!
Remember me?
Stop! Let go of me!
- Kazuma! - Don't move!
Let's get outta here! Go!
Go! Hurry up!
Run him over!
Who are you?
What the fuck are you doing?
Outta the way!
Run him over!
- No stopping at the intersection! - Excuse me!
It's hot.
The big guy is here.
Mind coming with us?
- Good evening, sir. - Good evening, sir.
Good evening, sir.
- Good evening, sir. - Good evening, sir.
May I ask the lady to wait here, please?
Hey...
It's okay.
Sir.
Excuse me, sir.
Well done, Tsuruta.
So you're the Oyagoroshi?
That'll hang over you forever.
If you go at it with the Sagawa clan,
then I'll hear of it.
So that was the Sagawa Clan just now?
You must be hot.
Strip down.
Long ago,
during the coup d'état,
The Dragon wiped us all out on his own.
I never got to see his face.
I heard the dragon tattoo on his back was incredible, though.
I joined the Yakuza because I admired that very dragon.
Could I get a look at your dragon?
Mine has no eyes.
Excuse me, sir.
Let me start off by apologizing for those Sagawa punks.
I hear they were mighty rude to this young lady here.
Thank you.
Young lady, you got roughed up in the parking lot, didn't you?
Seems the folk at Sagawa were trying to settle the score with this Oishi,
the bastard who stole our 10 billion.
So the attack on the manga café...
Not us.
- Ain't that right? - Correct, sir.
But if that money doesn't return to us,
then we'll have to get involved too.
Please wait.
We will find the money.
I guarantee it.
You say that, but we've got appearances to consider.
At least give us...
three days.
Three more days, please.
We will get the money back to you.
Please give us some time.
Aiko is my older sister.
If she's the one behind this,
then as her sister, I'm also responsible.
Young lady, this is between us men.
It's not your place to get involved.
True.
I know offering to cut off my finger
isn't going to be worth anything.
But I can offer my life if I have to.
Taking something like that
would only be a stain on us.
Imagine what the other Clan would think of the Omi
if we took some woman's life as collateral.
I'm ready to face any consequences.
The life I offer would not tarnish your name.
Gutsy. I like it.
But one day is all I can give.
Tomorrow at 12:00 a.m., we'll come to Doujima to get the money.
Thank you, Sir.
We're ready to go, sir. How should we proceed?
Let's take our chances.
Sir!
If they screw up, then they'll be dead after 12:00 a.m. tomorrow.
Indeed.
The Dragon God brings clouds and nourishes the soil with rain.
And if he's got an angel by his side,
then we've got ourselves a storybook pairing, no?
Well, let's look forward to it.
No, it's not like that.
Yumi jumped the gun.
We're not sure if either Oishi or Aiko are in Osaka.
Aiko has disappeared from Tokyo.
I'll take action on my end too.
Excuse me.
Just bring them in.
Call it a day for now.
But...
Trust me.
Listen, Yumi's changed too.
Are you the only one stuck in the past?
Well then.
Take your time and enjoy!
Negiyaki comes first.
Yakisoba's after that.
You eat like a pro.
- Is that sarcasm? - No.
Humanizes you.
I wonder where Aiko is.
I wish she'd just stay gone.
Don't scowl like that.
You'll get wrinkles here.
Here's your stewed beef tendon with eggs.
Here you go.
Be careful, it's hot.
Who wouldn't get wrinkles
with a sister like that?
She's selfish, arrogant,
and makes a huge scene if she doesn't get her way.
We'd all be better off if she were dead.
We might actually have some peace then.
No one
is better off dead.
Yeah.
Guess you're right.
Not bad. Looking good.
You surprised me.
What are you even doing here?
Your fight's soon, right? I thought I'd help you train.
Go home and sleep.
C'mon!
- Go on, Miho. - There we go.
- Hey. - What?
Teach me how to throw an uppercut.
Why should I? Leave already.
- C'mon, put your hands up. - No.
- Go home. - Just do it.
- No means no. - C'mon.
Okay.
Left foot out.
One, two.
Miho?
Eighteen gauge okay?
- Yes, let's go with that. - Got it.
Sorry.
Let's keep moving.
- Coming in. - Turning in.
What happened? How?
- Stop it. Stop. - Where's Miho?
You were with her, right?
Hey!
How's Miho?
Her test results likely won't be good.
It would be best to start dialysis immediately.
Will she make it?
Only if we can find a kidney donor.
It may be possible to find a match by paying an admin fee.
But who knows how many years it will take on the official wait list.
Please use mine.
She can have mine if it will save her.
- Please, doctor. - Wait.
It's not that simple.
We're family!
Miho's my only sister.
Doctor, please.
It's really not that simple.
- This is a restricted area. - Nishiki, stop.
Please calm down.
CONTRACT OF SALE
SELLER: EDGAR BEALE BUYER: SOHEI DOUJIMA
Thank you, sir. I'll see to the heliport.
What's your deal?
Knock it off!
- Please, sir! - What the--
- Get up! - It's okay. Leave him.
What's gotten into you?
Please let me fight right now.
- Who the fuck do you think you are? - Suga!
I really need the money.
I don't know what's your rush,
but show me how far you can go.
Some matches run into the tens of billions.
The more you win, the bigger the prize money.
If you want money then keep winning.
Odds after round one!
Kazuma!
Hit him!
Loosen up! Watch him carefully!
- Hit him! - Go, go, go!
- Good job!
Go, go, go! Go, go!
Go!
Can you keep going?
Stop the fight!
Techincal knockout! Winner, Kiryu!
You barely scraped by!
And with that, the first round of Block A is over.
I need someone who can drive a crowd wild like this.
Right?
Absolutely.
Hey, Inoue.
- Yes, sir. - Go get the car.
You'll get five million if you win the second round.
Don't die.
Where's Nishiki?
He just left. Probably went to see Miho.
Technical knockout! Winner, Emperor!
Your palm's health line stands out, so be careful.
You can eat all the tasty food you want when back home.
When you fatten up, the scar will disappear.
- Don't say that! - Let's go, shall we?
- Take care. - Congratulations!
I thought I'd lose weight in here. What a disappointment.
- You're still eating a lot. - You got me.
- Big brother. - You okay?
Yeah, I am.
What did the doctor say?
I can't donate my kidney to you because we have different blood types.
Sorry about all of this.
You haven't done anything wrong.
How did Kazuma do?
He won! The guy's a beast!
Fists of fury! Like, "Pow!" Over in a flash.
- Liar. - Who's lying?
Kazuma's not that strong.
He throws himself in and his defense is full of holes.
Don't worry about him.
Kiryu, listen.
Each time you win a fight,
we'll ink you some more.
Once your dragon earns its eyes,
you'll become the next Dragon of Doujima.
Hey.
Need a sparring partner?
KAZUMA KIRYU VS GO OYAMA "MAD DOG"
Here's the final blow! Take that!
All right, here you go!
Die!
All right!
Damn it! It ain't finished!
This ain't how it goes. C'mon!
All right!
Go, go, go!
Step right up, Miss!
Nishiki, next.
HUMAN PUNCHING BAG
More! Nice, nice, nice!
Don't worry, Kazuma! You got this.
Come here, punk!
- Yes! - Good job!
You piece of shit!
The fuck you're doing?
KAZUMA VS. HAYATE
Technical knockout! The winner, Kiryu!
Ow, ow, ow!
Quit complainin'.
Dammit.
FIGHT
- Move! - Move, move!
Thank you, sir!
A great win!
This is a big match with a prize pool of 30 million!
Kiryu, the rising star from Block A,
and Emperor, the undisputed champ of Block B!
The showdown between these two!
Who will win?
He's become a great fighter, as you predicted.
Yeah, but he's gotten a little too strong.
There you go. Here's your meat.
Enjoy.
I heard about your sister.
Why didn't you come to me sooner?
I apologize.
Hey.
Excuse me.
This guy here is a black market trader.
He might be able to find a match
for your sister from a list of donors from Southeast Asia.
Yeah, can do.
Big list.
No problem. Easy.
- Really? - Yeah.
But you'll need money.
Obviously.
If you want to jump to the top of the list.
You might need at least 100 million.
So how about...
we make the next match a profitable one, eh?
Profitable?
Yeah.
It's simple.
Kiryu just needs to lose.
In other words, we'll capitalize on his popularity.
We score that,
and I can guarantee you'll get the money for the kidney transplant.
Yes, sir.
Eat.
- Eat up. You guys too. Eat. - Thanks.
- It's delicious. You should try some. - Yes.
Okay.
An advance? That's not like you.
Is Miho okay?
Yes.
I'll do anything I can to help. Just let me know.
Thank you.
We're not open for business yet.
Can't you hear me? Out of my way.
I'm not a customer, dammit!
Oh, that girl.
Yumi!
I've missed you so much!
How've you been?
Nice place.
Your skin's so smooth. Must be eating fancy food.
Hey, cutie.
Show us your tits.
Hey, here we are.
LADIES' BATHS
What is this place?
I know it's not much.
It's fine.
You know, I've been looking for you this whole time.
I'm just happy to see you.
Glad to hear it.
You surprised me. I never thought you'd come looking for me.
Huh?
You fine with one towel?
Two?
I'm impressed.
You must be super popular.
Drinking champagne at a fancy place like that.
- Is it really good? - I couldn't say.
It's really not like that.
I'm nothing compared to the top girls.
They earn way more than me.
Yeah?
Maybe I should work at Serena too.
What?
Why not?
I served customers over in Osaka too.
C'mon, ask the madam for me.
Tell her you know of a future legend.
- The heck? - This place is fucking hot.
I wanna take a bath. Could you draw one for me?
Does this place even have hot water?
Whoa, what?
This place is huge!
It's simple. Kiryu just needs to lose.
In other words, we'll capitalize on his popularity.
Hey, asswipe.
Ever hear of "Excuse me"?
It's a handy phrase we use here in Japan, y'know?
Don't fucking look at me.
Fuck off.
"Excuse me!"
Dumbass!
Shut your hole!
Hey, you!
The fuck you doin'?
Oh no, stop!
You fuck! Drop dead!
Bet that hurts!
The cops are coming!
Don't touch my stuff.
- Any security footage of the vicinity? - Not yet.
- Other evidence? - Nothing new.
No murder weapon found yet.
I heard that the Omi's Oishi got popped.
His body was dumped on our turf!
Then who has the 10 billion?
That chick or The Demon?
Will The Demon kill everyone again?
Is this a threat?
Hey. The Demon's involved now.
How do we handle this?
The Omi are already on our backs!
At this rate, it'll be a repeat of the bloodbath from two years ago.
The Omi set this up to take over our turf!
Then how about this, Brother?
You nab The Demon
and settle things with the Omi yourself.
- Why you-- Say that again! - Hey!
Quit whining when you're too pussy to deal with The Demon!
Enough hollering about The Demon!
What about you, Nishikiyama?
We've got a Demon to hunt.
My boss gave me a task.
So this falls on me too.
Typhoon Number 8 made landfall near Cape Shionomisaki in Wakayama Prefecture,
moved northward over the Kii Peninsula,
and passed through Osaka and Kyoto
before moving out into the Sea of Japan at 6:00 p.m. yesterday.
Hey.
We found Oishi.
- With Aiko? - Dunno.
But it's chaos out here.
The inverted pentagram on his chest
means the Demon of Shinjuku is back after two years.
The Demon?
Oishi's woman is on the run with the money.
The Demon is after her.
- That Aiko is your bitch too! - Enough.
Nishikiyama.
Find the woman and bring the cash.
We won't get anywhere without that 10 billion.
Yes, sir.
Did The Demon put Oishi up to stealing the 10 billion?
Is that how Oishi and Aiko ended up getting the Omi's money?
So Oishi was just a patsy from the start?
But why hide the body
in such an obvious place like this?
Fuck if I know.
The Demon is angry, I guess?
He hasn't gotten everything he wants yet.
Now for today's forecast for each area.
Even with the typhoon passing, expect damp air east and west...
Teaming up with the cops now, are we?
Just trading intel. That's all.
Hello. Can I get you our morning special?
- Iced coffee, please. - Coming right up.
So? What now?
We have to find 10 billion by day's end.
I think Aiko's got the 10 billion.
Of course. That idiot.
"Sorry I was ever born."
"It's my fault Haruka died."
"Goodbye. Aiko."
Aiko.
Aiko is your mother, isn't she?
That's a weird letter you got.
"Megami Lake."
I'm glad the typhoon's gone.
That's just a nuisance.
Thank you.
Gimme a break. Seriously.
When exactly did she disappear?
How could you let her go off on her own?
A postcard?
Call me as soon as you find her.
- How's Haruka? - She left on her own.
What? Why?
- We'll take your bags now, ma'am. - Yeah, okay.
Aiko sent a suicide postcard.
Haruka saw that and...
A suicide postcard?
Megami Lake.
The photo, it's a place from our childhood.
I think that's where Aiko is.
If that's where Haruka's headed, then I'll ask Nishiki for help.
Wait.
It's not easy being the patriarch.
What would you do in this situation?
Let's find Aiko and the 10 billion.
Hey, Yumi.
Hey.
Is Nishiki working with The Demon?
Things have changed.
Nishiki's not the same guy you once knew.
- But we're still-- - What? Family?
That fell apart a long time ago.
No going back now. We just have to move forward.
Ten years have passed since then.
- We've all changed. - Stop.
Don't bring that up.
Then why did you come back?
Everyone wants to see things their way, only thinking about themselves.
That's how The Demon gets his way.
What's The Demon's motive?
Murder? Money?
Kamurochō.
Is it this one?
It doesn't look like anything special.
Who the hell are you guys?
What do you want?
Aiko's not in Kamurochō, is she?
Her daughter's at Yumi's place, isn't she?
Check it out.
Do it.
She passed through the plaza and headed for the station
an hour ago.
Where to?
We only have footage of Kamurochō.
What? I'm part of--
I can pull it up!
We can hack the cameras at Shinjuku Station.
Do it.
Nagano.
An express bound for Nagano, huh?
Dammit, dammit, dammit!
Sorry. What do we do? Do we move in?
Hey!
We're not open for business. Can't you see?
What do you mean? You're open!
Just fuck off, jackass.
Why should I?
Doesn't matter. The mole's exposed.
- Call for back up, now! - Yes, sir.
Where did Aiko vanish to?
Don't kill anyone else.
I'll do what you say.
We slaughter everyone until we find the 10 billion.
