Secretly working with Eguchi.

Who's working with Eguchi?

It's your buddy Jie.

If it is him, I will stop him.

Don't delay.

But I have a request.

You're in no position to ask.

Don't arrest my people.

Impossible! Cops arrest crooks, that's the

game.

But...

If you find evidence incriminating Eguchi.

I can help with certain things.

Steelhead.

I've wanted to ask you.

Muranishi Koichi, Togawa Taro.

Did you kill them?

You speak out of turn!

Steelhead, ignore him.

No matter what, I need time.

Steelhead.

I have repaid my debt in full.

Big brother.

Where's Hong Kong Boy?

He's just gone out, back soon.

My number will win.

I've won! You lucky bastard.

There are guests here, keep it down.

He told you to pipe down.

He's talking to you.

What are you saying? Shut up.

You looking for trouble?

Where are you from?

We're Katou-gumi.

Let me teach you a lesson.

Punch him!

Let go... Let go!

Let go! Do you want to die?

You dare hit big brother?

Do you know who he is? Brother Steelhead!

Are you OK?

Who are they?

Jie's followers.

They just arrived, they're ignorant.

It's a mess.

You again? Goldie!

Is that you? Always making trouble!

Apologise! Apologise now!

Sorry, big brother!

Go! Run!

How did Eguchi look for Jie?

He has a lot of men.

You told him to take care of the new ones.

Are we a triad gang now?

It's for survival, don't interfere.

When I came over.

Most of the people got caught.

You were lucky.

Perhaps.

Steelhead.

Why don't we leave Japan?

To go where?

I have a good friend in Brazil.

What language do they speak there?

I think it's Portuguese.

What can I do there?

Something that lets you sleep at night.

I can't leave them behind.

Don't be naive.

Life is one big mistake.

How many can you help? Or save?

You can't do anything.

Why have you called me here?

I don't look after domestic disturbances!

As long as you don't arrest my people.

I will turn evidence against Eguchi.

Eguchi asked me to kill

Muranishi and Togawa.

Steelhead... what are you doing?

Have you gone mad? Are they worth it?

Are they worth this?

It's all lies.

Pay him no heed.

He's only trying to save his brothers.

He's lying to you!

He's lying!

What are you trying to do?

Do you want Eguchi go to jail.

So Xiu Xiu will come back to you?

Have you ever considered my feelings?

You are so selfish!

Steelhead.

Let's just leave, OK?

Lily, I can't live in regret.

Who do you live for?

Your brothers?

Your ex-girlfriend?

Or for me?

She seems to have fallen for you.

If I were her.

I'd kill you.

Gao, if you want back Kabuki-cho.

You'll have to rely on yourself.

Yes!

Kill Kyohei and Tanaka for me.

What do I get?

All the Chinese territories go to you.

Eguchi-san.

Your men have all betrayed you.

Now is the time for us

to use the Bushido way.

To get rid of the Chinese pigs!

Aren't we here for war? What are we waiting

for?

Shut up and sit down and eat.

They're talking upstairs.

What if they don't listen to you?

Then send them all back to China.

They have legal documents.

Let's play it by ear!

Aren't you afraid I'll run?

It's a lifelong job

going after guys like you.

Steelhead.

What are you doing?

Isn't he a cop?

The cops know you are a criminal outfit.

What's this you and us stuff?

Aren't we one family?

Chairman Eguchi.

I was just looking for you!

Why are you in cahoots with him?

Be clear in what you say.

You worked with him first. What about you?

When did you join the cops?

How could you deal drugs?

Don't just pick on me.

Could I have done all this alone?

All of you are in this?

No... Not me.

They said they wanted to.

If you did it, then own up!

Hey, you didn't want to run things.

You just upped and left.

Now, you lecture us?

Can you hear yourself?

Stop squabbling.

Ingrate! Don't talk to me!

Tai Bo... Stop quarrelling.

Lao Gwei! Why are you speaking for him?

We're only making some money, what's the

big deal?

We didn't sell to the Chinese.

Steelhead.

Since we all agreed to it.

Keep out of it.

The cops want to catch someone, who?

Me!

What have you turned into?

Especially you. Look at you!

You look like a ghost, you know that?

Ghost?

If there is one, you let it out.

You're the real ghost!

Wake up!

Steelhead, you've done all you can.

Leave it for now.

You can't leave!

Don't let them leave Get away...

You can't leave... Get away!

You know the repercussions of attacking a

cop?

We're family, stop fighting.

Are you crazy?

You treat the cops as family?

If you follow him, it's a dead end!

You are the one heading for a dead end.

You've forgotten you killed someone?

I killed.

I did it for you!

Stop bullshitting!

You killed the border guard so you could see

your woman.

You killed the yakuza because you wanted

legal status.

For the money, for yourself!

So what if I did?

Didn't you get something too?

Didn't all of you get something?

All you have today, who fought for it?

Without me, where would you be?

You really want to talk like that?

When you first came to Japan.

Who looked out for you?

Without me, you'd be eating turd!

Didn't I risk my life too?

Steelhead, you're wrong to say that.

What? Want to take me on?

The matter wouldn't end there.

The Japanese won't let you go.

He won't let the Chinese take power.

He'll destroy you sooner or later!

Kitano-san has already said.

...he only wants Eguchi.

If you stop your activities.

He'll let you go.

Don't fall for it.

If I fall, you all fall.

Get them!

Don't move!

Kitano-san.

Get away!

Wait.

Calm down, Steelhead.

Go back with me.

Jie.

Just kill me.

Jie.

Shoot! Don't do this!

Jie.

Go away.

Have you gone mad?

A knife? This is not child's play.

We can talk about anything.

And come to an agreement.

Chinese don't fight Chinese...

Breaking my winning streak.

You want my life?

What do you expect from me?

Go up!

Come!

Hong Kong Boy.

Check on Lao Gwei, hurry. Help him.

Let's get upstairs.

Jie, no.

Jie.

Don't leave. You're all dead!

Hey, come out!

Go up!

Go!

Steelhead.

Get away!

Don't... Don't...

Go.

Fang, help!

Jie, run.

Run, run!

No, Eguchi.

Eguchi.

Kobayashi, it's me.

Bring men down to Toka Shouji.

Quickly!

I can't believe Nakajima sold me out.

This is for you.

All the information is in there.

Your cop friend can get a promotion.

I think... I could have

gone out with a bigger bang.

Eguchi.

Nakajima, Eguchi is dead.

He said, he'll come back as a ghost to haunt

you.

Give me the knife!

Don't let him go.

Steelhead!

Dai!

Dai! Dai!

Go!

Steelhead, here.

There are stairs outside.

Kitano, are you OK?

Open fire if they resist, let's go!

Don't run!

Steelhead.

It seems.

I'm still a coward.

Stop doing this, Jie!

Xiu Xiu, is that you?

What's happened?

Stay calm.

Eguchi is dead.

Quickly pack and find a safe hideaway.

How about this?

Bring your daughter.

To the Okubo station,

I'll wait for you. Hurry!

Well?

Speak up!

Tell us!
