In the year 199X...
The Earth was engulfed in nuclear flames.
It is a world in which no living thing seems to be left.
However, mankind hasn't died.
You're in shock!

VILLAINS!
SHALL WE HAVE A COUNTDOWN TO YOUR DEATH?
Hear me! We, God's Army, are the army of God who...
together with Him, are building God's Land!
And now a single rat has invaded our sacred land!
Observe!
It's the man with seven scars on his chest.
If you find him, kill him without mercy!
God is angry with us now!
Show Him the terror of the Red Berets! Go!
As of today, I'm in command!
Find the rat!
Kill anyone who gets in our way!
Wha- What are you doing?
Hey! Where's the man with seven scars?
I— I don't know anything!
He just came in here once.
What? God has ordered that anyone...
who's helped that man even once is to be killed!
C- Captain! I got some great booze in. Here.
I've kept it just for you, Captain.
I'll make sure you get taken care of from now on, so...
You tell us as soon as he shows up again. Got that?
Yes, sir...
You little punk! I warned you, didn't I?
Thanks, Pops.
Thanks, nothing! Just tell Ken...
he has to get out of town as soon as he can!
Gotcha. See you!
Hey, those goons are still wandering around here.
Be careful!
Okay! Thanks! See you!
For crying out loud...
You aren't totally greedy.
There're some good points to you after all.
You idiot! I'll never do this again!
Now get out of my shop!
- Captain! - We have a report!
We haven't been able to find him yet!
We've checked all the places he'd likely be, but...
Really? Then we'll have to lure him out.
And the bait... will be that woman!
Mama!
Stop it! Stop it, please!
You can come, too.
Papa! Mama!
Let us go! We don't... We don't know anything!
You need bait to catch a rat!
To the man with seven scars! Come here right now!
If you don't come, I'll execute these people!
And I'll keep on executing everyone in this town until you show up!
Oh, man! I gotta tell Ken!
Ken!
There's a very definite difference between you and me. It's...
Ambition. You have no ambition.
Y-Yuria...
Yuria! YURIA!
Ken, what's wrong?
It... It's nothing.
Just a dream.
Hey! Ken! Trouble!
Hasn't the man with seven scars shown up yet?
Then shall we begin the executions?
Such fine bait, too. It'd be a waste to kill them.
Stop this, please!
I don't care what happens to me, just spare my wife!
Well, then, as you wish!
Darling!
Papa!
Did you see that, Man With Seven Scars?
The woman's next!
Who did that...?
So, he showed up.
Will you let that person go?
Very well.
Darling! Darling!
We don't need the bait now that the rat has come.
Get him!
The Hundred-Way Slash of the North Star!
What's wrong? Aren't you going to attack me?
S- Spare me! I was only following orders!
I see. You're sparing me, right?
Hey, Ken! He's getting away!
I can't forgive a man for killing innocent bystanders like worms.
He's already dead.
That idiot!
PAPA!
Can't really blame her. She saw her own parents...
get cut down like that right in front of her.
Papa! Mama!
It's all right.
I just pressed Teishin, one of her hidden power points.
She'll be fine.
Now she's just like me...
Papa!
Mama!
When she wakes up, she'll have nowhere to go.
He's appeared! The man with seven scars has appeared!
So, he's finally shown up, huh?
Then it's time for Sergeant Madd to appear! Let's go!
- It's God's Army! - Sergeant Madd's with them!
Sergeant Madd's men are the toughest guys in God's Army.
I'm not getting dragged into this one!
Pops, I have a favor to ask.
I want you to take care of these kids for a while.
Are you kidding? I don't want to get involved!
Please.
All right, but you'll pay me back ten times over for this!
Hey, come on.
Thanks.
So, you're the man with seven scars.
You don't look half bad.
But today you'll have to say good-bye to that handsome face of yours!
Get him!
You handled yourself pretty well.
But that's not how you do guerrilla warfare!
The essence of guerrilla warfare is attacking from behind.
Get him!
Yes, sir!
Shall we go?
I, Sergeant Madd, have captured the man with seven scars!
Hey, Lin. Check it out.
There you go, little fella... Hey, what're you all lookin' at?
Thank you! You're a nice man, Johnny.
He doesn't look it, but he's pretty good at heart.
Sure. Say what you like!
You're the only one who really understands me.
Trouble!
That guy Ken was captured by the Red Berets!
Sergeant Madd took him away!
I warned him!
Sergeant Madd supposedly killed 500 men by himself...
and is supposed to be the most notorious killer in the Red Berets!
No matter how good Ken may be...!
Hold it!
What good will you do if you go after him?
You'll just get in Ken's way!
Believe in him and wait.
Ken...
He'll make a good live target for you trainees.
Hurt him! Beat him to death!
Give me a good demonstration of what you've learned in daily training!
Our pleasure!
To hell with Hokuto Shinken! What a laugh!
Lemme have a try.
Is that all?
What?
I asked if that was all.
Why, you...!
Damn you...
Your attacks have had no effect on me.
I let myself get captured so that I could kill your boss.
You're nuts! How do you expect to fight this many men?
I see. You won't learn unless I kill you.
Tear him apart!
The Linked Ring Grapple of the North Star!
You're almost superhuman!
What you have just seen...
was merely one of the basic techniques of Hokuto Shinken.
What's wrong? Aren't you going to attack him?
You don't deserve to be in God's Army!
These blades have been coated...
with the venom of deadly desert scorpions!
One scratch from these will paralyze your nerves!
Nicely dodged, but how about this time?
Now I'll show you!
The techniques I've used to kill thousands of guerrilla soldiers!
You won't escape by just dodging like that!
I can stab ten times a second!
Once that poison spreads through your body, you won't be able to move!
The minute you stop, you die!
It's over!
The essence of guerrilla warfare is attacking from behind.
Isn't that what you told me, Sergeant Madd?
Y- You... You son of a...!
Hokuto Shinken lets me tap 100% of my body's potential.
I can resist the poison much more effectively than you can.
Against me, the Red Berets are as helpless as infants!
Go to hell...!
What the...? My body! Can't control my...!
You can't raise yourself out of the water by yourself now.
If you don't want to drown, tell me where your boss is.
Like hell!
Well? Feel like telling me now?
That way! The colonel's in that tower!
But you'll never beat him!
He has superhuman powers!
That's all I need to know.
Wait!
Fool! You think you can walk out of here without killing me?
You don't seem to realize that you've already died.
What?
Ridiculous! I'll crush you!
M- My body...
You are already dead.
W- Wait!
Did you think I would let a man like you live?
The colonel...
An unlucky star approaches.
God!
I swear that I will...
Hey, Bat! Lima's awake.
Hey, Lin! Lima's awake!
Lin...
Ken...
Kenshiro finally catches up with the leader of God's Army.
The wicked Colonel's boomerang clashes with Hokuto Shinken
Next Fist of the North Star:
Strike the Hidden Power Point!
No Requiem for the Wicked!
STRIKE THE HIDDEN POWER POINT!
NO REQUIEM FOR THE WICKED!
You're already dead!
