Don't let nobody tell you there's no future in a life of crime, because some rackets can last forever. But we'll get around to all that immortality jazz later. A mafia turf war is raging on the mean streets of the Big Apple, a place where regular joes bounce between backdoor booze joints and the breadline. But this caper ain't about a simple gangland brawl. It's about hoods who can't seem to die proper after catching a bullet or five between the eyes.

For now, how's about we start on a ship called the Advenna Avis. Seems a group of guys who never wanna die are summoning a demon, and the proceedings are turning nasty. It's as good a start as any for a story where every Dick and Jane plays the lead.

The immortal gangsters are still trying to rub each other out, but hoods who won't die are tough to whack. Explosions rock the Flying Pussyfoot as the train nears the station, but this caper ain't about arrivals and departures. It's about the twists and turns along the way. It's about vicious monsters, deadly dames, and the sins of the past colliding with the present.

The train is pulling in and the mobsters and monsters who populate this caper are ready to settle a score that's been a long time coming. But this ain't about revenge or pride. This is about the ins and outs of living forever. It's about making your way among thieves with honor and politicians with dirty hands. This is about sticking up for the guys that do you right and the gals that love you good.

Every warrior's life is but a moment. These fearless fighters exist knowing all too well that each moment could be their last. There is always someone stronger, or faster. It is this great unknown, this passion for power that drives the Grappler.

Yujiro Hanma wreaks havoc in the ring as Baki ushers in the first match of the Quarterfinals. However, both immediately encounter the unexpected. While Yujiro is caught off guard by his opponent's strength, Baki is confronted with the most difficult decision of his life.

Baki's father pays a daunting visit as the next round of the tournament begins: the lethal semifinals. Baki will have to fully utilize his hidden talent if he is to have a chance against his opponent, a master of the sacred Kung Fu discipline.

The ultimate showdown is at hand. Baki steps into the ring, and the agreement is made that only one fighter will walk away. As devastating blows fill the arena, Baki's opponent begins to twist and gnarl into an unimaginable monster. Suddenly, the terrifying truth surfaces... Baki may not survive the fight.

While studying up on his future competition, Baki soon discovers the true terror that is Kaoru Hanayama, a cold-blooded monster bent on the excruciating end of all who stand before him. Hanayama does not use weapons. He is a weapon! And now, events are set in motion that will bring the full might of the killer's colossal strength bearing down on Baki.

It's Baki vs. Yujiro in a no holds barred grudge match to determine superiority once and for all! Or is there much more at stake than meets the eye? Whose side will Emi choose: The man she loves or the son who desperately wants to love her?
