You're doing well.
Oh, no!
This is awful!
What's the matter, Miyuki?
It's Makio! He's in trouble!
Dad, that's...
Yes.
That's Juzo Fujimaki, the wanted fugitive.
What's going on?
Father?
I heard him say a mixed martial arts match.
What is going on?
Who are you?
Hey! Answer us!
Hey, you two, step aside.
Oh, Master.
You made it, Fujimaki.
Nagata is not coming.
I figured.
This is quite the dilemma for you, isn't it, Himekawa?
Yes.
I guess your only option is to fight, right?
Yes.
Himekawa will take you up on your challenge.
I expected nothing less from Hokushinkan.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Due to Nagata's injury, the final round will be postponed.
Instead, we will have reserve fighter Juzo Fujimaki of the Takemiya style
versus Tsutomu Himekawa
in a special one-time match!
You got that, Mr. Kuno?
Do not interfere in any way until the match is over.
Matsuo.
Izumi.
You aren't here to stop this fight, are you?
Do you plan to fight wearing that?
Master...
Here is my training gear.
I have it with me at all times.
Put this on for the fight.
Are you sure?
Of course.
It's my honor to wear it.
Hey! Show him to a dressing room.
Yes, sir.
Oh, T-Tamon! You're not going to believe this!
What's with all the racket?
Did something happen?
Look at this!
Fujimaki...
Ladies and gentlemen!
We will now start the special one-time match.
Director!
Oh, my bad.
Let the match begin!
Elegant, yet sharp.
His whole body operates with machine-like precision.
This is Fujimaki's Takemiya style.
It's stronger and faster than Soichiro Izumi's...
He countered.
This guy is strong.
He's able to read Fujimaki's strikes.
You can do this, Makio.
Himekawa's kicks are exceptional.
Fujimaki's arm will shatter if he continues taking hits.
So what will you do, Mr. Fujimaki?
Amazing.
He saw the tackle and reacted with a knee strike, leaving no openings.
That elbow strike was as powerful as Ryuoumaru's.
Himekawa!
Well, this is surprising.
I've never seen Himekawa take a direct hit to his face before.
That is my...
All right!
Master.
Huh?
Could you move out of the way?
We were notified of a wanted fugitive inside.
I was instructed to not let anybody in here.
That doesn't apply to the police.
I can't make any exceptions.
Then bring out whoever's in charge here.
The person in charge?
The one who told you not to let anyone in.
You mean me?
That's Shozan Matsuo.
Wow. That's really him.
What's the problem?
We've been notified that a wanted fugitive is here.
Are you aware of that?
Yes, I am.
Then could you let us in?
What will you do in there?
Arrest him immediately.
I can't allow that.
What?
Currently, there are 30,000 spectators inside.
Do you plan to carry out a major crackdown in there?
No, that's not our intention.
However...
You can't fire a gun in front of an audience.
Do you really think your police can handle the beasts in there?
Well, there are a lot of us here.
Is that so?
Then why not give it a try?
Huh?
If all of you can defeat me, Shozan Matsuo,
then I'll let you in.
Chief.
You have a call.
Okay.
Yes?
What? The MPD?
Oh.
Public Security...
I see.
Understood.
All right. We'll wait until the end of the match.
However, allow us to stand by inside,
so we can arrest him as soon as it's over.
Let them through.
Yes, sir!
The accuracy of Himekawa's perception is improving.
If this keeps up, Fujimaki will be in trouble.
No!
What will you do, Fujimaki?
That was a close one!
Looks like I made it.
Hey, Mr. Kuno! Thanks for your help.
I was about to beat up all the policemen.
It was tough since the NPA and MPD have different channels.
Fujimaki, your offensive moves are getting dull.
No, this might be part of his plan.
Counterattacks require you to focus.
Himekawa is showing signs of fatigue.
He should be feeling damage from the German suplex too.
Having a variety of joint locking techniques
is the true strength of the Takemiya style.
He had no openings until now.
But now...
He's got it!
No, not yet.
It looks like his right arm is wrecked from taking Himekawa's kicks.
But Himekawa's knee is injured too.
It's regretful that he couldn't finish it with that move.
His remaining technique is...
Will he use Koou?
I ran away from those eyes back then.
Back then,
Saeko wasn't frightened of me.
She was saying,
"Thank you for killing him."
That scared me, and I ran.
But I shouldn't have run away.
I... will kill the Juzo
who ran away!
No way...
He did a rolling thunder kick to counter.
That Himekawa...
He was waiting for that!
It's over.
The winner is
Himekawa--
He stood up!
That's awesome, Fujimaki!
He's spaced out.
What?
That's merely his instinct fighting.
Is that safe?
That's no joke.
He's gone beyond his limit.
As the organizer, I can't have anybody be killed...
but do you really expect me to stop such a juicy fight?
What's with this speed?
He may be
faster than Shozan Matsuo!
I hear... that song.
The song my mother sang to me.
Shall we go fishing?
My old man taught me.
Oh, right.
Both of them died.
Koou!
Don't go!
He dodged it!
Isn't this fun, Himekawa?
Koou!
He clinched it!
That Himekawa!
He had this up his sleeve too!
When he tried to apply the technique,
he relaxed and applied his own weight to drop him head first.
Koougaeshi.
Well done.
You won!
For today.
Next time...
who knows what will happen.
Well, you won today.
You have to face your audience.
Listen, Fujimaki.
I have a dream.
To achieve that,
I need you, Juzo Fujimaki.
So go do your time, then come back.
Until then,
I, Shozan Matsuo, will remain active.
When you return,
we will have a match.
Not a bad deal, right?
Juzo...
That day, I was so scared that I couldn't say anything.
But inside, I was screaming the whole time.
I was saying, "Don't go..."
Thief!
Someone catch him!
Wow. You sure are good, Tamon!
That was magnificent.
Do you know them?
No.
Wrong person.
Dude, what are we doing back in Nara again?
I want to do more research.
Huh? Research what?
The Takemiya style.
For when... I fight him again.
