THE UNFORGIVEN

BLOODY BATTLE OF LIONS

Chairman Renjo of the Renjo Family Assassinated

So, who the hell did it? Who the hell ambushed the Chairman?

I've got no idea whatsoever.

We aren't causing any kinda trouble with anyone at all.

He was attending the wedding of some big wig in the entertainment biz.

He wasn't starting any kind of new project, was he?

I mean, maybe there was a dispute over some territory related to a big job.

Well, I'm not aware of it.

It's Moribe.

That brat took his life.

Hey, Watari, stop making false accusations.

We call him Crazy Moribe. He's a bad seed.

When one of his men screwed things up and he ran to faraway America.

There he joined the local mafia and caused all kinds of trouble.

He's capable of causing all kinds of trouble if aroused.

That's in the past.

He reformed himself to become a sensible man.

That's how he came to guard the Chairman.

Advisor...

how come Moribe disappeared from the crime scene?

How come he's not here? Huh?

Bastard, why would he have to kill the Chairman?

Or do you know something we don't know?

I know nothing.

Nothing.

But no one in the hotel witnessed the killer.

All they saw was Moribe running out of the front entrance in a panic.

That doesn't mean he did it.

No one witnessed him shoot the Chairman either.

Well, they'll find things out for us at the Metropolitan Police.

Well, of course, we at headquarters should search out the killer on our end too.

I'm not suggesting we do a half-ass job.

Hmph. I'll be counting on you, Chief.

Yeah.

First of all...

We've gotta find Moribe and ask him what happened.

We shouldn't do anything until then. Right?

I suppose so.

He always does this. Every time something goes wrong.

Where the hell is he roaming about?

He might be with Boss.

You see, when something happens, Boss is the only person who'll take him in.

Well, if I hear from him, I'll tell him to call you right away.

So, don't be sad, OK?

Hey...

Did he really do it?

Don't be ridiculous, Yoko-chan.

Of course it's some outsider. You know that.

Hey, wait a second.

Hey. You guys, go back to the office.

What happened to father?

Why are you making an unreasonable request out of the blue?

I let father die.

So what happened?

I killed him.

Stop fooling around.

That's what headquarters think, isn't it?

Watari has his own thing. But I don't believe for a second you did it.

I was unarmed. Like an idiot, I watched father and two of my sworn brothers killed.

It's a wedding of straight people.

Who'd have attended carrying a gun with him?

Listen, Azusa, you getting depressed won't help the situation a bit.

Tell me what happened.

We can't let father die without knowing what happened. Our family will lose face, right?

I don't care about losing face.

It's my heart that matters.

Sorry I've caused you much trouble.

Are you gonna clean up the mess by yourself?

Not by myself.

Huh?

It'll be me and my pride, the two of us.

Yo-chan's worried about you.

If I don't set things straight, father's gonna be furious in heaven.

I'm getting there. I take the rook and checkmate.

Thanks.

Here's the remaining 30 mil.

Bye.

Hey.

What is it?

Your commission.

Thanks.

Hey.

What is it?

Can you give me a little ride?

Okay.

My wife's a shorty and lefty. A great song.

Brother.

Yeah.

We've got a visitor.

Hm?

We're being followed.

It must be your acquaintances.

Oh...

It's you, Manabu.

Boss gave us an order to kill Serita.

What?

Where is Serita?

Tell me right now. Or we'll both be in trouble.

Please. Don't make your cousin lose face.

What the hell, Manabu?

You can't call me a cousin only when you want to.

You should've delivered him what was due and just left.

You've been told not to be friendly with him.

What're you talking about? I just gave him a short ride.

What's wrong with that, huh?

We've been told to kill you both if you get in the way.

Yeah? Suits me fine.

Shoot me if you can, you brats.

Do it.

Do it.

Do it if you can.

I've always hated you since I was a kid.

Hey, brother.

So, we're like cheapo disposable lighters, huh?

No, our father can't be like that.

Your family's under the umbrella of the Sogen Group.

If the people at the top wants, you've gotta even give up your own balls.

Well, looks like your position isn't good.

The executives at the Sogen Group want to erase the murder of Chairman Renjo

from the record at all costs.

What bastards.

Here.

Well, that's how things go in the business we're in.

Azusa.

Uncle.

What are you doing?

Don't worry. It's a family discussion.

Stop fooling around, bastard.

Why are you kidnapping me, Moribe?

Don't worry. I won't kill you.

Who do you think you're dealing with? Handcuffing me like this?

Would you come with me if I beat you?

I'd like that. Why don't you try it?

You're friendly with some cops, right?

Yeah.

You're so demanding, making me come out so late at night, Mr. Watari.

Sorry about that, Sakai-san.

What's up?

My father was done in. It's a dangerous world out there.

What would you like?

Shochu and water.

Coming up.

Who's he?

Does it matter?

Let's see.

Gunji Serita, originally from Aomori. 51 yrs old.

When he was 1 3, he killed his own father with a metal bat. That was his first murder.

When he came out of the juvenile detention, he joined a local mafia organization.

He served 5 years in prison for manslaughter.

At 24, he was arrested for attempted murder and served 5 years in prison.

At 34, he stabbed his own boss to death for disagreement over a woman...

and was sentenced to 1 5 years in prison.

He attacked a prison guard and served one extra year...

before he came out of Kumamoto Prison at the beginning of this year.

He's an out of control serial killer.

Even the local mafias call him Death and stay away from him. He's a murder addict.

So, do you have an idea where he could be?

Of course his family had excommunicated him.

He came to Tokyo looking for work with a guy associated...

with the Sogen Group that he met in jail.

Please get right to the point, will you, Sakai-san?

There's this member of Okuda Industries, named Teruo Sakasaki.

56 yrs old.

What's his bait?

What business have you got with these men, huh?

Well, please don't ask, Sakai-san.

Hey...

What's on your mind, Azusa?

Say something.

Don't be so quiet.

I'm an orphan.

Huh?

My real father and my sworn father, I lost them both.

Hey, wait.

Give me money.

You brat, who do you think you're talking to?

Stupid brat. You don't wanna get killed.

Hey...

Young one...

Did you tell me to give you money?

Yeah, you stepped on me. Pay for stepping on me.

I stepped over you but not on you.

Don't make a fuss. Shut up and give me money.

I can't give you money.

Brat, do you want to extort me?

You're a yakuza, aren't you?

So what?

I know yakuza make people cry every day.

Stupid brat, I'm gonna kill you.

He isn't there.

Fuckin' shit.

What do you want?

Say something, will ya?

We're the Sogen Group.

Are you dumb, huh?

Damn you, bastard.

What happened?

Say it.

Three of our soldiers got killed.

Uncle Sakasaki has got something to do with it.

Oh, there's blood. It's blood.

What's going on?

Three men got killed and three got critically injured all in one night. What the hell's that?

I wanna know it myself. What the hell happened? Boss.

You see it all started, with father's order.

It all started then?

Yeah.

With father's order?

That's right.

You see, I shot a gun, as I was ordered to. You'd do it too, if he tells you to, right?

Yes.

You'd do it, right?

Yes.

Would you really?

Would you really do it, bastard? If I tell you to die, you'd die, right?

Hit me. Hit me.

Slap me. Come on now.

I said do it, damn it. Do it now. Go ahead.

You're a coward.

You're all talk.

I did it. I did what I was told to do. I put my life at risk.

You're all a bunch of cowards. Why do I have to go through this?

Damn it. Bastards...

Listen, keep it a secret what happened tonight.

But Boss, there's no way we can keep it a secret.

Keep it.

So many men are down. By tomorrow, all of Japan will know what happened.

I know that. Damn it. Keep it a secret.

It's me.

I know. I know, don't say it. I'm on my way.

Damn it.

I'm going out to eat.

Please don't go out at a time like this.

I'm eating whatever I want, bastard.

Listen, even if my father's dying, I'll go ahead and eat what I want.

Even if he dies. I'll eat as much as I want, damn it.

Damn it, pisses me off, damn it.

Makes me laugh, damn it.

What are you upset about?

Shut up, damn it.

What's that about? You're the one who wanted to see me.

You could've cancelled the dinner if you're so busy.

Don't get so angry. I'm sorry. Here's a kiss. Let's fuck later.

What's going on?

What's going on?

Who the hell are you?

If your father tells you to do it, of course you do it, damn it.

All right, so I don't care if I die.

But you're gonna have to pay a huge amount of legal compensation for it.

My body's chopped up in pieces and you're gonna be in trouble.

They'll eventually find out you did it. It'll cost you tens of thousands.

Why did you attack father?

How the hell should I know? I did what my father Okuda told me.

Ask him why. I did what I was told to do. I don't know anything.

I just obeyed his order, damn it.

But this right now isn't cool.

What's the relationship between Serita and Sakasaki?

I don't know.

I wanna die in a normal way.

I swear I know nothing.

Wah! I wanna die a normal death. It's here, it's coming.

Oh, no, it's an express.

No! It's not an express, it's a limited.

No! I'll tell you everything. About Brother Sakasaki.

I will--I'll tell you everything. So save me. Save me.

Aagh, here it comes! Save me!

No no no

Come on, don't run away from me, damn it.

Hang on, I'll come in a minute.

No.

Ah ah, there goes an elephant flying.

Who the hell are you?

Where's Okuda?

He's right there, damn it.

The bastard fucked with us.

So I fucked his wife. Damn you, whore! You low life!

Here it comes

You bastard.

Here it comes

Sakasaki, where's Serita?

What do you want?

Where's Serita?

Hey, are you looking for me?

Wait, don't turn around.

If you do, I'll shoot ya.

Hey, drop your guns, both of you, if you don't wanna die.

Hey, chained dog.

I guess you're a good dog now, searching out the enemy who killed your father.

Why did you kill father?

They paid me tons of money.

I'm an evil murderer who killed your father just because. Right, Azusa?

Who's your boss?

Okuda who's lying here.

He didn't behave himself, so I punished him.

He said he's just a subcontractor, hired by the chief of the Sogen Group.

The Sogen Group is trying to kill me.

He seems to want to keep it a secret that he was the one who killed Renjo.

How come you didn't kill me? You've gotta be kidding.

Azusa...

you see, I've always been kind hearted.

Why are you aiming at me?

See ya.

Here you are. It's 500 yen.

Keep the change.

Oh, thank you.

Brother. Brother...

How about some sweet potato?

It's full of carbohydrates, so it's good for the spine. It's good for when you're tired too.

Now, let's go back to the office together. All right?

Do as you like.

Why do you say that?

We're going back to the office, and report back what happened, right?

Hey, hey! Azusa.

Papa?

Oh, Mami.

Papa.

Mami, I'm fine. Don't worry about a thing.

It's all right. Stop crying. All right.

What a fool Okuda Industries are making of themselves, huh?

They let their executives and young men die...

then the head and the manager of young men were killed too.

I'm very sorry.

Shut up.

There's no being sorry in the yakuza business.

Yes.

You ruined the Sogen Group's reputation, you piece of shit.

I'm so sorry.

Get the men of Okuda Industries to form a kamikaze troop.

Search those two men out. Leave no stone turned and serve them with justice.

I will.

Yamane...

Either they die or you die. Those are your options. You understand, don't you?

Yes, certainly.

All right.

As of today, you substitute the manager of young men for Okuda. Break a leg.

Yes.

Well, Mr. Sada...

Huh?

Well, what have Sakasaki-san and Serita done?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

You idiotic nosy bastard!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Look, it's dead, the diamond studded watch.

Yes, I'm sorry.

See?

Listen, you can buy it.

Yes?

Oh, why, Mako-chan, I was waiting for you.

Hi, Midori.

You look handsome as always.

Please wait.

Have another sip.

Hey, Shinji, it's been a while. Well, you look well.

Is this your friend?

He's good looking. Introduce him. Good evening.

Idiot.

Listen, you owe me one, remember?

It's been a while.

You deserve it, Mizutani. Right?

You had the nerve to cheat the daughter of the Chairman's relative into working...

at a massage parlor, I heard?

What business have you got here, Moribe?

If boss tells you to kiss him, should you kiss his ass too? Huh, Watabe?

What, you shithead.

What are you doing?

Mizutani-san.

Mako-chan.

I heard the Chairman got killed...

along with Mizota and Nakamoto.

I have a hunch things got complicated.

We need a chauffer.

I've gone straight now.

We're going to war with the Sogen Group.

Hey.

Damn it, where the hell are you looking?

You bastard slammed into my car.

What'd you say?

Damn it, you bastard. Come on, get up.

Get up now.

Sogen Group did it?

Don't give us false information, Watari.

I saw it with my own eyes.

I can't be mistaken.

What the hell's going on?

Was there any seed of trouble we had with the Sogen Group?

Was there, boss?

I've never even heard of it.

But you see, it's a fact the Sogen Group killed father.

We should have an emergency executive meeting, and prepare for war.

The Sogen Group is a huge family of about 10,000 members.

There's no way we can beat them. The Renjo Family here is only 2,000 men strong.

Even so, we can't just cry ourselves to sleep.

Cool down, brother.

We should first have a talk with the heads of Sogen and figure out which way's up.

I agree. We can't be too careful about how to proceed.

Once we start a war, there'd be no turning back.

Then, what about Azusa?

He's going ahead and declaring war on them alone. Then being careful'll means nothing.

Now that Okuda is dead...

the Sogen Group can no longer be traced to the murder of Renjo Hikokuro.

I'm convinced that we can safely maintain the position that...

it was Okuda's sole decision to go off on his own and commit the murder.

Okuda who was in charge of carrying out your order is no longer alive...

which means...

there's no way of knowing whether he had received the order from someone else.

Therefore...

Once we get rid of the Chief of Headquarters Sakasaki and the rambler Serita...

the case will be put to rest.

Do not err in getting rid of the two.

You don't need to tell us.

How's it going lately, Tojo?

Yes?

How's golf?

Yes, I've improved on my skills.

Let me see how you do sometime soon.

Hello.

Hi, where's the money safe?

What?

Well, the money, honey.

What?

Please wait.

Yo, where's the safe? Damn it.

Are you with the Sogen Group?

What if we are?

Where's the safe?

What?

Thanks.

Huh?

They shot three of the Chairman's men and stole 200 million yen.

Putting the money aside, what about saving his face?

Everybody knows you're the owner of that company.

It's all my fault.

I don't care whose fault it is.

I want to know what you're going to do about it.

Yes. If I may...

Chairman...

I'd like to know the circumstances that called for the murder of Renjo. If you please.

It was a special request by Master Tsujido.

He preferred not to reveal the circumstances to us, so we aren't informed of anything.

A hunting dog is what it is because it kills the prey.

Hey, we need more meat.

Hey, auntie.

Gee. Auntie, meat, more meat.

Great. There's 20 7 million.

Let's party. We're putting our lives at risk.

We deserve to spend a little extra money. Is that all right?

Mmm, it's good.

We can't eat good food like this in heaven.

Well, I'm sorry about your brothers.

Father.

Brother...

You can't bring a gun to a wedding.

Who is it?

The wine you ordered, sir.

Okay, just a minute.

There we go, it's open.

Excuse me.

It's Romanee Conti 1 98 7.

Yeah...

How much is that? Will this do?

It's 1 ,200,000.

Would you like to try it?

It's bitter.

Wow, it's great.

Listen, Azusa.

Say some stray dog killed me...

What?

Who's gonna avenge my death?

Of course, the entire family will unite and do it.

I don't know.

They'd appoint the successor right away and forget about the dead guy.

The extent of revenge would be no more than shooting guns for a while and that's it.

No one will take it seriously.

What are you trying to say?

Well...

That's about what all yakuza are.

But I would...

Be different, you say?

I'm feeling sad.

I'm just kidding.

Here.

I'm just kidding.

Just kidding.

Pay no mind to it, Azusa, all right?

What the hell are you doing? What are you doing?

Come on at me, bastard.

You should pay me for the cleaner, damn it. Sorry.

Brother?

Why did Renjo get killed?

Usually there's some reason why. The Sogen Group should have one too.

What's going on?

I don't care what the reason is.

They killed father, that's all that matters.

It's pure revenge for you, I see.

Father raised me.

I'm a part of him.

That's incredible. Incredible.

How can you simplify things that much in this complicated thing called life.

Man is born and dies, that's all.

Said Togo.

Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Tojo.

Who'd buy such a phony story?

We had three of our men shot dead and 200 million stolen the other day.

Wasn't it a declaration of war by the Renjo Family?

Am I not right, Mr. Shiraishi?

I've never even heard of it.

Let's put that aside for a moment.

What good would it do for either of us if we go to war?

We'd end up spending a lot of money...

sacrificing many young lives...

and being put under the police surveillance.

It'd only make our lives more difficult.

Plus, if I may remind you, our family is about 5 times bigger than yours.

War isn't only about how many men there are.

Now, now, Mr. Shiraishi.

We didn't come here to declare war on each other today.

Aren't we here because we want to settle the matter without any bloodshed?

By the way...

Would you mind telling me the names of the men...

who raided the loan company directly managed by our chairman?

You see, he's infuriated by the robbery.

We don't know yet if it's our men who did it.

We must see some justice done, otherwise we can't put this to rest.

Please understand, Mr. Shiraishi.

It's all for our mutual happiness.

Let's use it as an opportunity to build a mutually beneficial relationship.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

You can't handle me.

You drank too much.

I'm fine.

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Make sure he gets home.

Okay.

Thank you for coming.

Brother.

Don't push yourself.

Let go of me. He dissed father.

Just sit back and watch me.

9, 999...

10,000...

10,001 ...

10,002...

That's my record.

You're lying.

Hello.

I believe it's you who raided the Sogen Group.

What if it is?

The Sogen Group is using that as an excuse to force us to accept a truce.

Headquarters is agonizing over it.

It depends on what headquarters want.

They don't seem to want a war. We might end up losing father for nothing.

I don't wanna hear bullshit any more.

This is another loan company under Sogen's chairman.

A truce mediation will be soon.

There's no need to stick your foot in hell at this point.

I like hell.

You have nerve.

Wait, wait, Mizutani.

Yes.

I've made a deal with the Hong Kong mafia.

They're ready to get you out of the country any time you want.

Thank you.

Sis. Sis?

Yes.

Mayonnaise, please.

Sure.

Mayonnaise.

Here you are. - Thanks.

Sister Yoko, long time no see.

A detective came by.

Shin'ichi.

What are you doing, getting mixed up with a yakuza like him?

I thought you've gone straight.

Well, he's my brother.

Sister Yoko, hold this for us.

See you.

Wait a...

You're moving too slow, stupid dog!

Damn it.

That's enough.

Let me do what I want.

This is my last day on earth.

Unless you have an idea how to get us out of this?

It depends of Boss Kitabatake. We might just be lucky and live.

And if we're unlucky?

We'll shut up and drop dead.

You see?

Listen, every man eventually drops dead.

It's time you come to terms with it, brother.

Hey, what are you doing?

Are you gonna raid them in broad daylight?

Hey, you can't do that.

Hey, wait a minute, brother.

Hey, a raid usually takes place in the evening.

Hey, I can't believe you call yourself a pro.

Hey, it's dangerous!

Are you serious you're gonna do it in broad daylight?

What the hell...?

Hey, what happened here?

Wh... what?

What's going on?

Hey, what's going on, brother?

You see? I don't you!

Where's back up? The Chairman's in danger.

If anything happen to him, you're gonna hara-kiri yourselves, got it?

Don't hide!

Go!

Don't worry. It'll be over soon. Relax.

I'm out of ammo. They're playing the defensive to buy time.

We've got no more ammo.

We'll go in. - What?

If we go in, we'll turn into swiss cheese!

Is your life that great?

Being so cool... Please, that's enough.

I don't wanna commit suicide with a dude.

I don't wanna die holding hands with a guy.

I have no intention of dying in a place like this.

Then get out.

Azusa!

You're good for a young chicken.

You wanna get into a fight right now?

I know you want Takatoki Kitabatake dead.

How about cooperating with each other here?

Azusa?

We can use this too.

Shall we?

Azusa, if you kill Kitabatake now, you're gonna get all of us killed later.

I know you're okay with that 'cause you don't expect to survive this.

But you see, the rest of us still want to live.

Shut up!

You wanna lose your tiny brain?

Hello!

Hello!

Outta the way!

Hello!

Chief, let us go in.

Don't get too hot, Ohba. Send your men home.

But Chief...

The Chairman's held hostage.

We shouldn't get the men upset.

What if anything happen to the Chairman, Ohba? Bring the money.

Sada-san, let us.

Shut up and step back.

Father, let me go with you.

I'll go alone. That's what they want, right?

Yes.

Sakasaki, you bastard, I hope you know what you're doing.

It's because... you screwed us.

Even a worm has some fight in it.

Don't you forget this.

I'll make you regret you were ever born.

There are at least 300 million. It should be enough.

It costs you, you see, if you use a dirty hand.

Why don't you get lost while you can?

Sure.

But beware of that guy.

You can get rid of us with money, but you can't do that with him.

Who the hell is he?

He's a stray bullet that belonged to the late Boss Renjo.

He's gone totally mad.

Now all he thinks about is revenge.

What are you trying to do?

Bastard, I won't let you do that!

It's all right.

He's our insurance, only until we find ourselves in a safe place.

Let go of the child. I'll take his place.

You're just a bonus.

Come...

Come.

One touch of your guns... and bang...

...he's dead.

Hey, Azusa, how are you feeling?

If you take bones out of a dead man, he'd shrink.

If you take the soul out of him, he'd just be another stranger.

Listen, Azusa, the world isn't a dreamland.

Man is neither a god nor an angel.

You shouldn't trust people, only yourself.

Listen, Azusa, just remember...

Just remember to threaten them.

Once you've got a hold of your target, don't let go even if you die.

That's what it means to live.

Whether you live or die, it's no big deal.

Whether you live or die, it's no big deal.

Bye.

Chief, why did you have to kill Renjo, huh?

Tell me.

You don't wanna tell me?

Well, it doesn't really matter to us at this point.

Hey, don't push it too far!

You should be worrying about your future instead of getting pissed at me.

A persistent devil is following you.

He's coming for you.

What?

What are you gonna do to me?

Take care.

Hey!

Hey!

Damn that bastard!

Damn it!
