Only fooling.

Go buy yourself a whore.

Don't be ridiculous.

We're just partners.

What do you want?

You unpatriotic dog.

Unpatriotic? You should talk, you beggar.

You want me to bleed you dry?

I fought with His Majesty's forces.

Facing death in the Pacific.

But now practically a mummy. What brings you here?

We veterans must unite. America woos us

and Russians persecute our fishermen.

A national crisis.

What a character.

- What do you want? - Get out.

Don't deal with bums like this, Hanako. Ignore him.

For a girl, this is quite a racket.

Mister, this blood is for cosmetics.

Blood banks are old news.

Mister, want to stay with us?

What does he want?

How about a cut?

- Is there enough? - No.

Well, why don't you quit?

Or should I tell Shin? What do you say?

Mister, want a part in my racket?

- Big money? - If you work it right.

Stingy bitch.

Let's find a chump.

Takeshi, we're in for trouble.

- They look weak. - Let's go.

What are you guys up to?

None of your business.

Tough guy, eh? How about a little money?

That's a laugh. Why not loan us some?

What?

The cops!

Couple of toughs from Fuse. I brought 'em along.

Idiot.

I warned you. No outsiders.

They want to join our gang.

If you guys are just curious, you're in trouble.

I've been around. You feed us and we'll work.

Right, Takeshi?

What a mess. Put your bags away.

Ryu, show 'em where.

You slut. We can't afford another abortion.

We're in business to make money.

Masa.

Tatsu and Takeshi... they're newcomers.

Co-Chairman Masa.

Come on, let's go.

Hang in there. It won't be long.

Get moving.

- What do you want? - Excuse me.

Buying blood by day, selling flesh by night.

You're a busy girl.

Where are you from?

The Shinei-Kai.

Where does the gang hang out?

I don't know.

It's true. I just joined.

Recognize me?

Afraid not.

Afraid not, eh? You must be new around here.

Big shot, how's business?

Bunch of punks in my territory.

I hear you're tied up with them.

A bunch of lies.

Stinking rat.

How come you know Ohama?

He's the local boss. Tough one too.

Shinei-Kai is growing too.

Putting up a fight, yeah.

Our boss kicks us and beats us if our earnings don't measure up.

It's rough for a new gang to gain a foothold. Rough on us.

Shall I introduce you to Ohama?

For real?

When the time is right.

Ohama is getting in our way.

Where's Tatsu?

Standing watch over the girls. Can't have them running off.

Hi, boys. Working hard?

You new?

Yeah. My name is Takeshi.

You look a bit soft.

Can you stand the Shinei-Kai pace?

I'll grow into it.

You'll do all right, son.

Who are you anyway? Mind your own business.

Fine. I'm off.

Annoying bitch. I'd like to slug her.

I hear she's friendly with Ohama.

Ryu, it's getting too hot for us. We'd better move tomorrow.

Shall we go?

Wait.

Yasu.

Where were you while Takeshi was taking this beating?

Nowhere.

Come on. Talk.

Had a drink with Hanako.

- Is that all? - Yeah.

- What's with that dame? - Nothing. Really, nothing.

Won't talk, eh?

Think I don't know that you and Ponta made a deal with that slut?

Forgive me.

I once sold some blood for pocket money.

What else?

Hanako's boys bought it. Then we started helping them, for a cut.

Idiot!

I'll kill you!

Damn you!

That's quite a haul. Let's have a look.

Take a hike. I'm not selling to you.

Hey! Stealing our rice again?

And won't work, the loafer.

We won't support you forever. What a nerve.

Let's throw him out.

What's that?

A hand grenade. An old army one. It could blast you to bits.

But why carry it around?

Don't you have any brains?

Collecting junk all day while Yosematsu takes the cream.

Can't you see he's milking you?

What do you mean?

But we have money in the bank.

I can make in a single day what you earn in ten.

Yari.

Keima.

It's looking good today.

Get to work.

You're the new one?

If you're joining us, get to work, jerk.

I pay my rent.

No ex-bum like you is going to order me around.

The hell with you. I'll stick to collecting blood.

Go ahead. Starve in your own way.

And don't come back begging.

Lazy rats. Every last one of them.

No hope for Japan now.

Really disgusting.

Pervert.

My own father.

You'd have caught a cold. I covered you up.

One can't even sleep.

If you're so hard up, go make a pass at Batasuke's wife.

He's a useless alcoholic. She might even welcome it.

Come home drunk again and I'll lock you out. Understand?

LOVE AND HOPE FOR THE YOUTH

TAKANOYA MOTEL 150 YEN PER NIGHT

WE BUY OLD CLOTHES, ELECTRONICS, STAMPS

Can't you swipe something better than this worthless junk?

What the hell happened to you?

It's your fault. My boss found out about our deal.

How come? You been talking?

Fool, you're useless. This could ruin me.

I kept it secret from Ohama and Shinei-Kai.

Where's Shin?

Why? You planning to link up with him now?

It's that or nothing.

Don't tell him what I said.

Tell me where he is.

Why all the offal? Working for a chow house?

- Yeah. - Asshole.

I got in trouble because of you.

You know you can't quit once you join.

I'll let you off for now.

What gives?

Couldn't stand the pace after all, huh?

Wait.

Go back now, they'll charge you for the loss.

Come on.

I have to see Shin anyway. I can help you out.

Go with me.

- No. - Fool.

Running away only brings trouble.

Take me to Shin, I'll fix things for you.

You, Agitator.

Any fool can see that I help Yari and Keima earn a living.

By studying prices in the papers, you cheat them of their earnings.

Milked like geishas.

Boss, is it true? You swipe half our earnings?

- I'm done working for you, Yosematsu. - Me too.

Hanako.

You sure brought me trouble, you idiot.

You think you can get away with this?

You'll be begging me to take you back.

Bunch of fools.

He's talking nonsense.

Get over to the clinic.

- Help round up the men. - No menial chores for me.

Let Yari and Keima do it. They're not working for Pop anymore.

Finally located our hideout, huh?

Well, I'll let it go this time.

But he broke our rule by running out on us.

I said drop it.

Hanako, know why that happened?

No idea.

Did you work him over?

Let's leave it at that. I hear you've got a nice racket.

Nothing much, really. Just so-so.

Really?

Why the interest?

Never mind.

You can use him, but pay him fairly.

Let me think it over.

Takeshi, go out and pull something big.

Tatsu, you're his friend. Go with him.

Watch out for cops.

Look what Tatsu's doing.

Sell some blood? 300 yen - good money.

Hey, sell some blood?

Go wait over there.

How about it?

Hanako, though we share equally in this, there's a difference.

Our money will help save our Empire.

Yours is for sleeping with delinquents.

As of today, we'll take 70% and you get 30%.

Even that is too much.

A dirty bum shacked up in a junkyard

talking about the Empire.

What a laugh.

Get off your high horse.

I can live wherever I want.

Soon the Soviets will attack. We need guns.

Patriots will fight them off... with guns supplied by us.

Hey, you.

How about you? You joining this crackpot?

I'm not picky. I'll take a bigger cut any day.

I'm all for this new 70-30 deal.

After all, peddling blood is a risky proposition.

I see.

Fine. I'm out.

I'll start over somewhere else.

We respect your freedom. Do as you please.

You'll regret this.

Did the Agitator send you boys?

Is that enough?

Yeah. I feel much better now.

You know, this is quite a racket.

How about it, Shin? Will you join me?

Good money?

More than 10 hookers in one night.

Deal.

We'll need a new doctor.

Yeah, preferably with a clinic.

I can seduce him.

That's true.

Besides, I could do with some fun.

How about some fun with me?

Hey, Yasu wants to sell out to Ohama. Better watch him.

- Look. - What?

Nice dog, huh?

Yeah. They're great when roasted.

Yosematsu. Tell Hanako to stay out of our way.

Where'd he come from?

I don't know, but they were yakking all night.

You heard? Keima, let him have it.

Watch who you're dealing with.

Leave the nut alone.

Maniac.

Who says I'm nuts?

Shit. A raid.

Hanako. That bitch, Hanako.

We run a blood bank here.

A major link in our financial chain smashed.

This is serious.

I see.

So you brought those tramps to this clinic?

Don't worry.

If you join me,

we'll earn many times such paltry sums.

I will join you. And so will the others at my command.

But why buy ID papers?

It's top secret. Any leak means death.

We sell them to foreigners smuggled into Japan.

SAKAGUCHI CLINIC

Let's get some blood.

RAPED GIRL'S HIGH SCHOOL FRIEND COMMITS SUICIDE

Why are you so gloomy?

You were supposed to be our lookout.

I'm mad at you, and Shin will be too.

He's dead.

Who?

That boy.

From the park?

I'm a murderer.

Because his girl was raped?

Yeah.

Any jerk like that is probably better off dead.

- He's useless. - What do you mean?

You're so stupid.

If I was in his shoes,

I'd have hunted down and killed the culprit.

Who the hell commits suicide?

Don't worry about it. Forget that worthless fool.

I'm running away. I've had it with gangs.

Where can you go? They find you again, and you're dead.

Come on. I'll talk to Shin for you.

No.

Don't be stubborn.

You've got nowhere to go.

If you're a murderer, so am I.

I was there too.

Tell Ryu you were taking this off a chump. Then he won't tell.

Do we have to beat it into you?

That's enough. Cut it out.

What?

Don't tell me you're getting soft on Takeshi.

Try saying that again.

Takeshi can't help it.

Got it, Takeshi? Don't forget for a second that you work for us.

Let's go.

You can't go out looking like that. Stay with the other junk.

Junk?

The useless trash.

Take it.

What for?

It's yours. Get yourself some noodles.

If you don't work, they don't feed you, right?

Right.

Why don't you run away?

Still dreaming after that beating? It's no use.

But you have to do something.

Run away with Yasu.

Why would I go with him?

I thought that's what you wanted.

Really?

Keima, seen Batasuke around?

- Nope. - Strange. His cart is here.

Want to come see me tonight?

Dream on. I'm not like Yosehei.

Forget it. Who'd put up with you anyway?

Pervert.

Get it, Batasuke?

You're no longer Eisaku Yamano.

As of today, you have no papers and your name will be Batasuke.

If you ever admit selling your identity papers...

you'll be dead.

Got it?

Listen, don't drink it all up in one go. Put some in the bank.

It's the last 20,000 yen you'll ever see.

What's up?

An advance. 300 yen.

- Oh, I remember you now. - Right.

I'll call you when we're ready. You'll have to wait until then.

All right. I'll buy you some dinner.

Some rice. Give him a pile.

Batasuke, drinking killed the spark. Your wife can't help it.

Forget her and buy us another round.

Where'd you get the cash?

She's cheating.

I'm cuckolded.

Be a man. Do the right thing.

Let Yosehei have her.

I'll punch his lights out.

Call her. Go get my wife.

Sure, I'll get her.

That's a dirty trick, needling the dope.

Batasuke, why are you still here?

Hanako! You wrecked our clinic.

You swiped it from me to begin with.

- Now we're even. - I'll kick your ass.

I'm nobody. I don't belong on Earth. I'm a man of the universe.

Then why don't you go there?

I'm going to Hokkaido.

You don't say. Well, don't bother coming back.

Come on. He is your husband, you know.

At least try to be polite.

Why all that talk?

Yosehei.

You made love to my woman, huh?

Far as I'm concerned, it's a favor. My humble service to mankind.

I ought to knock your block off.

- Do it, do it. - What are you doing?

Do it.

Stop it. Don't waste your time on this trash.

Forget it.

Go to Hokkaido.

Work hard. The war will change things.

- Things are bound to get better. - Liar.

- There won't be any war. - Yeah.

- Our sort won't be any better. - He's right.

It will change.

If there's no war, nothing can drag us out of here.

Exactly.

You could work harder.

- Work can solve a lot of things. - That's right.

What the hell?

What?

- You crook. You want trouble? - Who are you to talk?

- Want a piece of me? - I'll take you on.

Who cares about a wife?

To hell with home.

I'm going to Hokkaido.

Come on, you bums. This is my going-away party.

Drink all you want. Come on.

Come on.

Teaming up to make a chump out of me?

Let me explain again.

My boys bring in the laborers.

The doc takes their blood.

What do you do? Even 20% is too much.

And Sakaguchi is really cooperating

and deserves at least 30%.

Just like that.

I could go to jail for this.

I wouldn't get off easy like you.

So, Shinei-Kai takes 50%, which leaves 20% for you.

You can quit if you want.

Why not start again somewhere else?

The old "sex" appeal.

You could be my woman. You'd get special consideration.

You'd win both ways.

Wouldn't mind another ride myself.

Let's go, Takeshi.

These girls are yours starting tomorrow.

You'll have to work hard.

I broke it off with Hanako.

Which means she may try to trick Yasu

into revealing our hideout to Ohama.

Since Nobuko's been out of commission, Yasu has gotten itchy.

In any case, when he comes home, I'll make him talk.

Just bump him off. And we'd better move again.

Nobuko. It's now or never.

Yasu is bound to be killed.

What's going on?

I heard strange noises.

- Yasu's gone. Nobuko too. - What? Find them!

Watch the girls.

What the hell?

So you finally got so jealous you committed suicide, eh?

Trying to frighten me? Well, I don't scare easy.

Hey! A suicide.

It's Bakasuke! He killed himself.

- Some are better off dead. - That's right.

Soon Russia will attack.

Those who refuse to join me will die in misery.

He's right.

Worthless dog.

Drank up all his money and now kills himself to spite me.

Liar.

Your relentless nagging killed him.

He couldn't take you sober so he became an alcoholic.

Batasuke was a good man. I hardly knew him, but he was good.

Oh? What makes you think he was such a fine man?

He was good. He gave me money.

Give it back!

I was his wife! That money belongs to me!

You disgrace the dead.

Settle the matter in a more amicable way.

You're on my property here.

This is Yosematsu's turf.

Acting big. Think we don't know what you're after?

Bullshit.

Get off my property.

Bums who don't work aren't welcome here.

Screw you!

Remember. We don't like nosy cops.

Someone give me a hand here.

I'll do it.

What's his name?

How would we know?

Just Batasuke. No other name.

You can't move in with Yosehei.

You would scandalize the whole neighborhood.

Live with me as my housekeeper until the whole mess blows over.

As an ancient sage once said, "Gossip remains but 75 days."

Maybe he's right. It might be better to do as he says.

You might find the arrangement a bit inconvenient,

but it might be good to live off him for a while.

Okay. I'll do it.

And keep your hands off her, you hear?

Boss.

I'll be knocking off for the day, okay?

Hey. You even pinch my rice?

Calm down. You've already had it good enough this morning.

I've had it rough.

Fell over a bluff in my rush to escape. Broke my arm.

Yosehei, now you know the power of money. It's time you got wise.

Despite all your bragging, Agitator, you're weak in the head.

I sent the woman over to live with him to fatten her up a bit.

Look at the sad mess I'm in. Isn't there something you can do?

Not while you work for Yosematsu.

It's hopeless. Even stealing doesn't pay.

When's this war of yours going to start?

In two more years.

Too far off. Can't you move it up?

You can help - by joining us.

All right. No more stealing for me. Times aren't right for it.

I'm your man.

You intend to sleep forever? Get up.

We're moving today. Get packed.

You new girls, let this be a lesson.

No one double-crosses the Shinei-Kai.

She's the perfect example.

It's true.

Those rivers once so dear

Hunted and pursued on this endless trail

Tears my sole companion Happiness beyond reach

Hey, where'd you learn that?

I don't remember.

Sissy stuff. It's for tramps.

Getting sick of the gang?

Well, no. I can see how you've tried to help me.

But...

But what?

You didn't have to kill Yasu.

Couldn't be helped.

If he lived, Ohama would have gotten me.

As soon as you stop moving, it's over.

You mean like a top?

A top?

A spinning top.

What do you mean?

It falls when it stops spinning.

Agitator, how are you making a living?

My method's in line with the way of the Empire. Unlike yours.

Right. Helping foreigners buy identity papers from...

Shut up!

You need five men for that?

How about it? Want to join me again?

But you had them wreck our clinic.

And Murata has disappeared.

I found him.

I saw him plying his new trade.

Then we start again?

The split - it's 50-50.

Sounds good.

All right. We'll start tonight.

Everyone, I want to show you something.

Hey, combat medic.

Hey. Are you still mad?

Of course not. Feed me something. I haven't eaten in two days.

I have a deal for you. Interested?

Well,

that's too bad.

Wait, wait.

You mean bitch.

I'm your man.

I'll do anything you say. Murder - whatever you want!

You too.

Who are they?

Our ship's come in again.

I'll bleed those bums dry.

Yosehei, you thief, isn't this better than working for Yosematsu?

We'll show you!

Shinei-Kai thugs. The ones I was formerly tied up with.

A raid. What'll I do?

Calm down. Offense is the best defense.

Who attacks who?

Such a weak bunch.

Lack of training makes you unfit for emergencies.

There's no other way. I'll go ask the Ohama gang for help.

Hey. What's wrong?

Be careful.

Fool.

She's like a ghost.

She's the one Tatsu raped.

You'd better go home. It's late.

Come with us.

Looks like good-bye.

But why?

Being with you brings only misfortune.

What?

Look at poor Yasu.

Trying to say something?

I'm just saying what I think.

It's my fault too.

If it doesn't help, then don't say it.

You have a point.

Damn. I keep seeing the girl's face.

Stop saying that.

I'm going back. Shin will be angry.

Where is he now?

On Futaba Lane.

What about you?

I'll stay here.

Taken a liking to her, Doc?

Take her if you want.

No kidding? All right. Let's go.

You can't have her for nothing.

Let's say we just knock 20% off your share.

Nonsense.

Take a cut for this slut? You should give me an increase.

Don't you think?

I'm being serious. Are you interested?

No.

Are you sure?

What are you up to?

Try anything funny and you'll regret it.

All I have to do is tell the cops.

Then we'll all be out in the cold.

I've got a better plan.

I have no problem killing, and I could care less if I die.

Want me to prove it?

You think he'll go to the cops?

He's too chicken.

Nobuko.

Getting friendly with the doc, huh?

So what?

Forgotten about Yasu already?

Did you?

Nobuko! Nobuko!

I love you! I really do!

That's enough. I said cut it out.

Moron.

I'm Takeshi. Nice to make your acquaintance.

Those hills and rivers once so dear to me

Hunted and pursued on this endless trial

Takeshi. Where have you been?

Come here. Over here!

You still haven't learned.

I'll teach you!

I'm just joking. Sing us that song.

Come on. Sing.

Those hills and rivers once so dear to me

Hunted and pursued on this endless trail

Cut the gloomy stuff. Shut up.

Pipe down.

Cut it out.

Enough!

Those hills and rivers once so dear to me

Hunted and pursued on this endless trail

Here's your ticket. The conductor will help you get off.

It's Kyushu. Get a job in one of the mines.

Really?

Come on. Hurry.

Let's both quit.

Why should we?

I'm sick of it.

How would we eat if we quit?

Quit if you want.

I'll go my own way.

Come with me.

You're nuts.

Let's quit.

Forget it.

Keep away from me.

Did anyone see you?

Then don't worry. If no one saw you, you're safe.

As long as you keep quiet.

Tatsu and I went to school together.

Fool.

The dead are dead. Don't think about them.

Takeshi.

Ohama's men are raiding the Shinei-Kai now.

Shinei-Kai is no more.

You sent them there.

- Where are you going? - To find Shin.

Don't. They'll kill you.

He's my boss... and a good man.

Right.

It's because of that soft side that he's getting it now.

You're no better. Going out looking for trouble.

You won't live very long.

I'm no devil like you.

You want me to be like you?

At least I'm alive.

I'm not impressed.

Shin.

You were lucky.

- They got everyone? - Yeah.

The Shinei-Kai is back where it started.

Damn it.

If only I could find out how they found our hideout.

That bitch. She must have talked.

Shin, please.

Why not? I'll send her to hell.

You. You've been sleeping with her.

You told her.

Hanako, look at me. I finally did it. I had her again.

Your father alone wasn't enough.

One straight.

I'm not simply Yosehei. I'm Yosehei the Conqueror.

Yes! That's how I'll be known.
