To protect your love with me,
you set off on a journey
And lost sight of tomorrow
I never want to see that your face has forgotten how to smile

Keep this gate open.
It shall never be closed again.
The gate is... never to be closed again?
It's hard to believe... that Raiga and Fuga...
Raiga and Fuga, who's never once let anyone through the gates...
They opened the gate themselves? Just who on earth is this guy?
VILLAINS NEED NO TOMBSTONES!
THIS IS THE HELLISH CASSANDRA!
So, you've finally set foot on this land...
Kenshiro.
To voluntarily enter Cassandra, the city where devils cry...
I'll at least praise your reckless bravery.
The word "reckless" holds no meaning to me.
You have yet to know the taste of fear...
Then, I'll give you plenty of it!
We've put our faith in this man.
He's the savior we've been waiting for!
There is no such thing as a savior!
The hopes you have put on that man...
I will crush them to smithereens!
Hope will turn into despair!
I can hear them... The cries of the devils...
What are they?
They are the graves of those who challenged Cassandra.
Our cursed, dark past.
It's the symbol of Cassandra's legend.
Watching that graveyard expand is my greatest pleasure!
Kenshiro, we've already prepared a grave for you.
You can die at ease!
Did you dig a wide grave?
Huh? No, why?
Then I'll beat you into as small of a bloody pulp as I can.
Huh? What are you getting at?
You still don't get it?
The one going into that grave...
is you!
What the hell!
You want a taste of the fear of my whip?
What a fool.
No one can beat the warden!
Hey.
Want to bet dinner on that?
Sure! But you're betting on the warden too, aren't you?
- No, my bet's on that guy. - What?
Hey...
The Cassandra legend is going to be broken.
I can just feel it.
Here I come, you fool!
Taishan Twin Streak Whip!
Eat this!
Ken!
He's fast. I can't see it!
You can never tell which way they're coming from!
How's the taste of fear?
Here comes the finishing blow!
Holy cow, I don't believe it!
When did he tie them?
- I'm betting on him, too! - Me, too!
Don't write him off just yet. Uighur's got so much more.
Kenshiro, just fighting alone isn't very entertaining.
What's happening?
The Ritual of Terror is about to start.
One, two, three, four...
Five, huh.
Bring out the scums from Prison No.5!
Yes, sir!
- Let me go! - No!
Guillotines!
Their lives are on the line just for you.
If I win, their heads will roll!
What?
- Stop! - We'll take their places!
I can't hear you.
Betting the lives of those who fear is what makes it more amusing!
Instead of toying with their lives...
Why don't you worry about your own?
What? You insolent little...
Shut the hell up!
This time, you won't tie them!
Taishan Thousand Streak Whip!
You're all talk!
Behold the true form of Warden Uighur of Cassandra!
Mongolian Supreme Dominator!
Ken!
What's wrong, Lin-chan?
It hurts...
- Whoa, you okay? - My chest...
My chest just suddenly started to hurt...
He's lost... That man has lost?
Our savior...
Pour all of your body's strength into one blast...
and slam that into your enemy.
No one has ever survived this attack!
Your hope has turned into despair!
Sounds like it's settled now.
I guess it's the end of your brother as well.
How's it feel, huh?
If he's to be defeated here...
there's no way he can withstand the challenge that awaits him.
As promised, time to chop off some heads.
You can't!
Spare us! This has nothing to do with us!
I can't hear you.
- Hey! - Can't you hear me?
- Spare me, please! - I'm sorry, wait!
Ken! Ken, hang in there! Ken!
What a great feeling!
Do it.
Here goes!
What's wrong?
Impossible! You took the full Mongolian Supreme Dominator!
It's the end of the line, Uighur.
What the hell!
All that you've built...
The legend of Cassandra...
will now be erased.
Lucky bastard, get a load of this!
How's that! Now you have nowhere to run!
Very well. Play time is over.
Six fingers.
With these six fingers...
I'll take on your Mongolian Supreme Dominator.
I won't take any of your insults...
It's unforgivable!
You're not bad, you stopped my 1100-pound body mass!
But that's as far as you go!
You're now as good as a sheesh-kabob!
North Star Steel-Rending Wave!
You can no longer use your Mongolian Supreme Dominator.
That tragic and despair-filled legend stained with your evil...
I will crush it now, with this fist.
I can't hear anything.
Cassandra's legend is indestructible!
I said it was indestructible, and I mean it!
North Star Hundred Crack Fist!
Looks like the grave was too small.
But don't worry, it'll soon take care of itself.
It hurts all over!
Go ahead and die at ease.
Help!
Villains need no tombstones.
- Why, you! - Avenge the warden!
Must I add more graves without tombstones?
The infallible Cassandra... has fallen.
With one piercing glare he defeated the beasts...
It seems our savior has boundless powers deep within him.
Hey, Mamiya. Have you noticed?
What?
Right. I can no longer hear the howling wind.
The devils' cries have ceased.
Lin-chan! Shouldn't you be resting?
Yes, all better now!
I'm going to see the flowers!
Geez, she had us all worried.
- We are free! - Yeah!
Cassandra's legend is broken!
We'll never be Ken-Oh's pawns again!
- Our savior! - Truly, he's our savior!
The devil's cry has turned into a shout of joy!
Well done, Kenshiro.
But this is only the entrance to hell.
Kenshiro has shattered the legend of Cassandra!
But Kenshiro has yet to notice Ken-Oh's approaching shadow!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
THE NORTH STAR'S 2000 YEARS OF TRAGEDY!
I CAN HEAR KEN-OH'S FOOTSTEPS!
The North Star's 2000 Years of Tragedy!
I Can Hear Ken-Oh's Footsteps!
Toki, we must meet.
