Great party.
And a distinguished crowd, too.
Big shot politicians and moguls.
The Corsica Foundation is trying to become the US's next Jewish community.
Neither nuclear power nor ideology runs the world.
It's the power of money. That's what they're proving.
Congratulations, Monsieur.
Thank you.
Congratulations, Monsieur.
Why, welcome Mr. Yut Lung.
I'm glad you came.
Ash, how are you feeling?
Have some champagne.
How frightening.
He seems nervous.
Forgive me. He can't see, so he's a bit worked up.
Although he's weakened, he's still a wild beast.
I had to temporarily blind him just in case.
Shall I push him?
Do I look a little different?
You don't look like a pre-teen, if that's what you mean.
Don't be scared to shoot, all right?
Or you'll die out there.
I know.
I've been ignoring everyone
I've been wandering around
I've been deceived everything At that time
Then you appeared in front of me You ignited my pale heart
We've been looking for each other From now on
Save you
The infinite sacrifices
The blurry ideals
I won't let it all go to waste
So I tore up the sadness built up inside me, into tiny pieces
Get away from me Get away from dark nightmare
Just now, chip at your heart We just fight for freedom
All the arguments, all the colliding
I wanted to save you, despite all that
Get away from me Get away from dark nightmare
We don't want to go through that again
The time is ripe Listen to the bells of inception ring
Get away from me
-Would you like a drink? -Thank you.
A wheelchair? Why?
Oh no, he's here too.
Have you kept your claws and fangs nice and sharp?
I've signed a contract with Mr. Yut Lung.
-This way. -Let's go.
Ash. I'll set you free.
Get down.
I need you to follow my orders, sir.
Freeze!
That voice...
Eiji!
Move, and I'll shoot.
Damn it. Blanca, kill Eiji Okumura!
I can't do that.
My job is to protect you.
Unless he's about to hurt you, he's irrelevant.
Oh no, where are you going sir?
-Let go of me! -It's my job to keep you safe.
You must listen to me or you'll get yourself killed.
Eiji, how can you be so reckless?
Damn it, if only I could see!
Are you that good a shot?
Shoot him! He's just bluffing.
You idiot.
-Eiji, shoot him! -Sing?
How can you miss at that range?
Shoot the place up!
Eiji, this way. Hurry!
Damn, Ash.
I heard a gun being cocked.
I sure as hell wouldn't want you as an enemy.
All right, pull out!
Don't mind me, get after them.
Bring Ash back alive.
Monsieur, some of the assailants were my subordinates.
I cannot apologize enough.
It is impossible to control every last one of your men.
I do not doubt our friendship.
I am grateful.
Let us leave before the police and the media come.
I understand now.
You let me hire you so you could help Ash.
On the pretense of protecting me!
Shall we nullify the contract?
No.
You will help me capture Ash and exterminate the backstabbers.
You can't say no, Blanca.
As you wish.
There they are, after them!
Good.
Are you okay?
Where am I?
In a shutdown subway station.
Subway?
Have you gone blind?
Yeah, but it's only temporary.
Anyways, we can't stay here. It's dangerous. We have to get out.
Take it easy.
We prepared this place because it's the safest.
You rest up first.
Yeah. You should get changed and have something to eat.
Can you walk?
Yeah.
Sing, Cain.
You saved me. Thanks.
Never seen him like that.
Gives me the creeps seeing Ash so submissive.
Sorry, Lao.
I've dragged you in too deep to turn back.
Nah. We were all angry with how the top dealt this anyway.
But I don't get what's up with you.
Why are you so supportive of Ash Lynx?
He's the only one who can manage the whole of downtown.
Are you serious? He killed Shorter to get his hands on downtown. Why him?
What about you, Sing?
Look Lao, he's the only one who can keep downtown together.
Without him, there will be another Arthur.
Senseless killings all day. I've made up my mind, okay?
If you disagree, leave.
Fine, you're the boss.
Ouch, hot. There, it's ready.
Sorry it's just canned soup.
It's good.
Food hasn't tasted so good for so long.
You saved me again, Eiji.
Aww, come on. You've saved me countless times.
You're back safe, and we didn't lose any guys.
We all did it together.
There's no way Blanca would be fooled by this flimsy plan.
It's too dangerous to stay here.
Wait. Golzine is probably looking for you like crazy above ground.
Plus, you need to rest.
Listen to your big bro for once, okay?
Yeah, you might be right.
I always think about the worst case scenario.
I've been like that for so long, it's a habit I can't break.
Must be because I'm a coward.
Stop it. You're not a coward.
No, that's why I'm still alive.
Always thinking ahead.
I can't calm down.
That's why I always assume the worst...
We're searching the area, but they know the streets better.
It's too bad we lost Arthur.
He was a great help at times like these.
Blanca, what do you think?
What are these marks?
Entrances to the sewer system.
The main sewerage runs under them.
Who's there?
Hey, it's just us.
It seems like we did it.
What's up, Sing. Where's Ash?
Don't worry. He's sleeping over there.
You idiots!
Why are you all gathered in one place?
Locking ourselves up underground in these numbers is suicidal!
They'll never find us here.
Anybody can figure out that Manhattan is a maze of tunnels.
We've got to get out, now!
Arm yourselves with all you've got.
-Come on, get to it. -Where are the bullets?
Why did I let my guard down? And I knew he was with them.
Hurry, we don't have time.
Ash, are you okay?
I'm just a little faint.
The food at the old man's mansion was like dog barf.
You're sick, aren't you?
You can tell me the truth.
I couldn't eat anything for about a month.
I lived off water and IV injections.
That means...
Don't worry. It takes more than that to run me down.
I didn't want to make you hold this again.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize. That's something for us Japanese to do.
Let's go, Boss.
They're here!
Get back!
-Ash! -To the north sewer.
Cain, lead us there.
Gotcha.
Here we are.
If we make it out there, it's the East River.
Watch out!
They've got us trapped.
We can't go back.
Tear gas!
I'll see you if I survive!
Boss, here's another passage.
Hey, this way guys.
Ash, this way. Hurry!
Cain, where are we?
No idea. I've never been in here before.
-Just keep moving. -Where are they?
Search that way.
Damn, they're persistent.
I'll lead them to another passageway.
You guys run as far away as you can.
-Cain, look after Ash for me. -Eiji, wait!
Eiji, come back!
Come back!
Damn him.
Let go of me, Cain. Let go...!
Sorry, Ash.
We can't have you dying on us. Better him than you.
We have to lead them as far away as we can.
Ash is weak. This is the only way to save him.
-Where are you going? -Who knows!
You're coldhearted.
You thought up a plan to corner Ash without missing a beat.
I hate to say it, but you're the one that requested I help you.
Do you mean it?
Of course.
You are my master, Mr. Yut Lung.
Hey, you awake?
This is our hideout.
What the hell, Cain. Take these off.
You're nothing but skin and bones. You can't do anything.
Shut up and take these off.
No can do. I'm already involved in this.
This war against the Corsican mafia.
We need you in order to win.
Anyways, you rest up.
Out of my way.
Jeez. You don't take no for an answer, do you.
So, what's the plan?
We found Ash Lynx.
He's heading west on 159th Street.
So he got out.
Okay, catch him before Golzine does.
You intend not to cooperate?
I will.
It's just that I'll have the upper hand if I can catch Ash alive.
You don't plan to coexist with the monsieur?
Of course not.
There's no way we could. He understands that well enough, too.
It's a dog-eat-dog world.
Ash will come in handy then.
He's an excellent fighter. One that you trained.
Museum of Natural History?
Yes, Ash Lynx has hidden away in there.
But he's a rat in a trap in there.
Not exactly.
I expect he'll prove quite elusive.
Our men are searching the museum now.
The electricity has been cut off, so it's pitch dark in there.
He's taken things in his own hands.
Giving up already?
It's not even the first round yet...
Duck!
Are you okay?
What is Ash after? Trapping himself inside like that.
He's trying to buy time.
He's drawing attention to himself on purpose.
In other words, the boy you loathe, Eiji Okumura, is still underground.
Is he that important to him?
Storm the place and capture Ash.
That's too dangerous. Ash is used to fighting in the dark.
He's waiting for us to attack.
Then what do we do?
We wait, too.
Until we catch his friends or he gets impatient and comes out.
I can't wait. Golzine will be here before long.
Charge at once!
Don't scare me, jeez.
It seems like we fell right in Ash's trap.
-What do you mean? -Panic.
In the dark, those exhibits make people nervous.
So that's why he chose this museum.
I have a bad feeling about this.
Mr. Yut Lung, stay close to me.
Mr. Yut Lung.
We got a call from underground.
They've found Ash's friends.
Good.
You got caught too?
-Sing! -Shut up and get in line.
You dogs of Yut Lung!
Killing fellow Chinese men. Shame on you!
Shut up, you traitor.
You son of a...!
Run, Sing!
-You little... -Stop!
Eiji Okumura.
Mr. Yut Lung wishes to see you.
Good news. We've caught Eiji Okumura.
Ash is over for good this time.
Cain, I'm counting on you.
Mr. Yut Lung, it's dangerous outside. Please stay in the car.
I'm fine. I must welcome Eiji.
Watch out!
-Blanca! -Stay there!
Who are they?
That's Cain Blood and his men. They control Harlem.
I wish I could slash your throat, but I have other plans for you.
Stop right there.
Damn it.
Drop your guns.
I'll pull the trigger before I say that again.
Line up!
Ouch.
-Are you okay? -Stop it, jeez.
Eiji.
Damn it, not now. What now, Ash?
We can't...
Cain, get going.
Hurry, to the "rat's hall."
All right, come on guys.
Don't move.
Come on.
Blanca, I'll be in the Hall of Ocean Life if you're ready to talk.
Leave it to me.
I will bring Mr. Yut Lung back alive.
You're coming with me, Eiji.
How's your shoulder?
Sorry about that.
It was him? Is it his fault that Ash was acting so strange?
So Ash knows him.
More like a graveyard than a museum.
I'm doing just as you taught me, aren't I?
What are your conditions?
All your hostages for this little jerk.
That's asking for a bit too much, isn't it?
Is it?
If you can't protect your client, your clean record will be ruined.
Do it, and your friends won't live to see another day.
Shut up.
Want me to strangle you with your guts?
Lay one finger on my friends.
I'll kill you in a way people will never forget.
I know the human body's vital points and infinite ways to torture without killing.
And you're the one that taught me.
Fine, I accept your terms.
Papa, we've found the Chinese.
-And Ash? -Well...
We can't find him.
Bring my car around.
We'll let them go at the same time.
On the count of three.
Alex, the "rat's hall."
Eiji, don't fall behind.
3, 2, 1.
Go.
There you go.
Mr. Yut Lung!
Are you hurt?
Are you okay?
Never mind. How's your arm?
Monsieur.
I heard about what went on.
You should've called me.
I would've offered my help.
What a shame.
Forgive me.
I was going to capture Ash for you.
He's a vicious wild beast.
Not something
that a young son of a well-to-do family can handle.
From now on, I ask that you leave him to us.
I see you've been hurt.
I was bitten by a vicious beast.
Do be careful.
Forgive me.
Don't apologize.
Ash just has the upper hand in these streets.
I see he's adapted to this city more than I'd imagined.
He's turned it into his own playing field.
You look amused, Blanca.
Me? Not at all.
Then let's set a scorpion loose in his garden.
Just you wait, Ash.
You will pay for this.
