The Matsuwaka-gumi, a union formed by consolidating yakuza organizations across 12 prefectures in Eastern Japan. Its executive committee had run amok and become utterly corrupt for their own gain. Concerned by this, Hayashi (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), the Matsuwaka-gumi's second-in-command and chairman of the Tatsumi-kai, rose up alongside Tatsumi-kai's second-in-command, Taito (Kazuki Namioka), to rebuild the Matsuwaka-gumi. Opposing this was the Yamazaki-gumi, the junior group within the Matsuwaka-gumi. Around the same time, Yamazaki-gumi executive Yanagi (Sōsuke Takaoka), released after serving nine years in prison, found himself at odds with his former brother-in-arms, Taidō. Eventually, driven by his own sense of honor, they would clash fiercely. A chivalrous drama has been completed, featuring Kazuki Namioka and Sōsuke Takaoka as young yakuza whose fiery souls collide.
