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!

you set off on a journey
And lost sight of tomorrow

A city that's always beautiful to me.
No matter where you search in this world now...
you will not find a city as lovely as this.
Yuria, look!
The sun shines only to warm this city.
The only thing I can see is the wasteland in the distance.
Yuria, why do you turn your eyes away from what you are now?
Why don't you see that lovely dress and the sparkle of those jewels?
You still can't see the blood which stains your hands.
What...?
Joker. What is it?
Dante has returned.
WHAT A MISERABLE AGE!
GOOD PEOPLE DIE SO YOUNG!
So, you put down the uprising?
Yes, sir. They called themselves a rebel army...
but they only managed to assemble 50 farmers.
It wasn't much of a threat.
Well done.
By the way, now that you've demonstrated your talent...
there's another matter that must be addressed.
The man with seven scars, sir?
You once trained with me in the art of Nanto Seiken.
You should be a match for Hokuto Shinken.
Please leave it to me, sir. I swear to you, Lord King...
that I'll return with that man's head as a pledge of my loyalty.
They're currently headed south.
I'm so hungry I can't steer the car right.
Ken, do something!
What, are you trying to cheer me up?
O- Okay! Enough! I feel better!
Okay, let's go!
That's ...!
Private First Class Bat has sighted an oasis ahead, sir!
What's going on here? Nobody's around.
I thought we'd get treated to a little food.
But it looks like people are around here.
There are all these haystacks.
Yeah... And the fields are so neatly mowed, too.
Yeah...
Something's wrong here.
What the...?
Ken!
Stop!
Dr. Duran!
This isn't a bad man.
B- But...
That young girl's eyes show me that she trusts him absolutely.
Would a couple of innocent children be with a bad man?
Yeah, if Ken looks like a bad guy to you...
then there's something wrong with your eyes!
And if you've still got any problems with us...
you're gonna have to kill ME first!
So, what're we gonna do here? C'mon, you gonna do it or not?
Looks like we're all clear on this.
Forgive us, but the times we live in demand it.
They have to be on guard against strangers more than anything else.
No offense taken.
Still, that wasn't exactly GUARDING you guys were doing.
When I first came here, I got treated the same way.
I believe you were the one who attacked me first.
Yeah, uh, well...
It's them. Joker's info was right on the money.
What do we do? Hit 'em all at once?
What's that?
What's wrong?
See for yourself, Mr. Dante.
Well, this could be interesting.
Wait till nightfall. Then we'll kill him!
I see. You're on your way somewhere.
As you can see, the village is in ruins...
but we should be able to give you shelter for the night.
You're darn right you should!
Especially after what you nearly did to us before!
Dr. Duran!
What's wrong?
It's my father!
He feels sick again?
I'll be right over!
Daddy! Daddy, hang on!
Doctor!
All right.
The pain should go down once he takes these herbs.
Thank you, Dr. Duran. Thank you!
Don't worry. He'll be fine.
Man, we really found a great village, didn't we?
We can help ourselves to this village's food...
till we kill the man with seven scars.
Don't move!
W- What the hell did we ever do to you?
We can't let you keep wrecking our town like this!
What's so funny? We're serious!
Get out of here!
Aw, don't get all sore at us. Here, have some.
Eat up! You're hungry, aren't you?
But you've gotta eat it like a dog!
Don't insult us!
Looks like they don't understand.
As long as we're in this town, you have to do exactly what we say.
That is the destiny of the weak in this day and age.
Wh- What?
What did you do?
You'll know in a second.
Man, what a mess.
A lot of things on this are in really bad shape.
I can't believe it's kept running this long.
Dr. Duran! Doctor!
- Play with us! - All right, all right.
But in return you all have to help your moms and dads.
Okay!
What did the little lost ogre eat?
He had some acorns and then climbed over the mountains
Past the mountains was the bright, blue sea
With flying fish leaping and splashing in the water
Join us!
- Me? - Sure. Go on over.
Okay, watch carefully now. This time I'll do it with seven stones.
What did the little lost ogre eat?
He had some acorns and then climbed over the mountains
Past the mountains was the bright, blue sea
With flying fish leaping and splashing in the water
Who— Who's there?
It's been a while, Duran.
Y- You guys...!
The ties we share with Mr. Dante...
are supposed to be even stronger than blood ties.
We can't forgive the crime of running out on us.
And no matter where you run, you can never escape our pursuit.
H- Have mercy! Please! I'm not the man I was!
Don't be naive, Duran.
I'm trying to repent for the sins I committed in the past...
by helping these people. Please, let me go!
Why, Duran, how could we not show you some mercy after you said all that?
After all, Mr. Dante has a very forgiving heart.
However, there's one condition.
What? Tell me!
The man who came here this afternoon... Kill him!
- What? - He won't suspect you.
If you do it for us...
Mr. Dante won't have to defile his art of Nanto Seiken.
I abandoned my past, but you want me to kill again?
Whether you do it or not is your choice.
What's this?
Gunpowder. Use it wisely.
Do you understand?
If you don't do it, we'll destroy this village.
And when we do, you'll die with all the others.
Consider things carefully.
I— I can't!
Duran! Kill 'em!
That Duran guy's a real idiot!
Treating sick people for nothing!
If he knew how to run his business, he could be raking in the money!
He's nothing but a fool. Don't you think so, Ken?
That's not true! He's just a nice man!
He may be nice, but I say he's a fool.
You're wrong! He's a kind man and he's not a fool!
Sheesh! No point arguing with you!
Doctor?
Kanna...
What are you doing, Doctor?
Oh, uh. N- Nothing...
So, what brings you out at this hour?
Is your daddy sick again?
Uh-uh. Daddy told me to bring you this.
Thanks. Why don't you share it with me?
Thank you.
Tell me...
Dr. Duran, will you stay in the village forever?
Uh, yeah. Of course I will!
Because, when I grow up, I want to be your...
My what?
Kanna?
I... I want to be your wife!
Kanna...
Herbs?
Yeah, they grow on the other side of the mountain.
I'm going to go collect them. Would you mind helping me?
We can go with you, too!
No, the foothills are very dangerous. It's no place for children.
Bat, work on fixing the car.
Hey! What's the big idea?
Looks like Duran's made up his mind, Mr. Dante.
Where are the herbs?
Um, well... I think they were...
Oh, look! There they are!
That outcropping over there. See? That's where they are.
They're very potent herbs...
Hang on!
Thanks!
Got him!
M- Mr. Dante...
Well done, Duran.
He's still alive!
- What? - Th- That's impossible!
Let's put him out of his misery right now!
Drop those rocks on him!
Yes, sir!
This guy ain't human!
What's the story, Duran?
Dr. Duran!
Come quick! Daddy's sick again!
Don't move!
Good timing, that.
Now, jump back into that volcano, Man With Seven Scars!
When I grow up, I want to be your wife.
Let her go! She has nothing to do with this!
Why, you...!
Betray us, will ya?
And now you die!
What a pathetic man.
Doctor! Dr. Duran!
- Die! - Get him!
The Four-Way Slash of the North Star!
Y- You didn't do anything to us!
Don't you realize it yet? You're already dead.
What?
My... My eyes...!
Impressive, Hokuto Shinken.
But, in the end, you are no match for Nanto Seiken
Die! Nanto Hyakuzan Ken
It's no use. No one in this world is stronger than me.
Wh- What the...?
I... I can't stop my legs!
I struck the hidden power point known as Gu-Soku.
Your legs will keep on marching forward.
N- No, please! No!
Help me! Stop me!
Why? Why did Dr. Duran die...?
He sacrificed himself to save me and that young girl.
Say a prayer. Say a prayer for him...
What did the little lost ogre eat?
He had some acorns and then climbed over the mountains
Past the mountains was the bright, blue sea
With flying fish leaping and splashing in the water
As the devil's knell rings in the darkness,
Even good people are tainted by its' eerie sound!
Will even Lin's soul be stolen away?
Next Fist of the North Star:
TRY COUNTING TO THREE!
YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'LL DIE!
Try Counting to Three! You're the One Who'll Die!
I can't hear the cries of villains!
