Unable to see tomorrow...
At the edge of this never-ending journey!
THE CLOUDS REMAIN!
THE MASKED GENERAL IS FINALLY REVEALED!
Open up!
Ken-Oh-sama is passing through!
Open the gates!
- Ken-Oh-sama's here! - No!
Where is Ken-Oh-sama headed?
Juza of the Clouds!
No one will stop the King of Fists' conquest!
Juza is the only one who could stand in my way now.
But Juza will not fight!
Juza is the man who abandoned his own soul.
But why are the Five Chariot Stars so desperate to obstruct my path?
It only makes me wish to meet the last general of the South Star.
I swear I'll defeat him with my own hands!
Juza-sama!
I must ask you once more.
Juza-sama, no-one else but you can stop Ken-Oh's advance!
It doesn't matter how many times you ask me!
Juza-sama, will you really deny our request?
Yeah, I only live for myself. I take orders from no one.
Juza-sama, if we fail we're prepared to die!
If I have no other choice...
Whoa, you're serious?
Without a positive answer from you, Juza-sama,
I cannot return to Rihaku-sama!
Suit yourself.
Hey, you've got principles! Do as you wish.
I'll even light a stick of incense as your funeral...
But, I won't fight.
Juza-sama...
I suppose it's no use... Juza-sama refuses to go!
I feel like I'm alive again!
It looks so good!
That's our village's water!
So this spring is yours?
Sorry about that.
Maybe I can do some hard labor to pay you back?
Forget about that! Please leave, quickly!
What's going on?
Ken-Oh's troops rule our village. Now, this spring water is theirs.
Even we villagers can only drink a limited amount a day.
If they find out you outsiders drank from it...
I don't want to see more blood shed! So please, get out of here quickly!
Too late!
You drank Ken-Oh-sama's water? How insolent!
What do you mean, Ken-Oh-sama's water?
- That water just... - It's no use, Bat. Stop.
Were you just going to let these guys go?
They didn't know this was Ken-Oh-sama's water!
Screw you! Don't talk back!
You bastard!
- Damn you! - Damn you!
It's a waste of time dealing with you.
Take me to your captain.
Oh, you've sure got guts. Alright, follow me!
Hey, hurry up and carry that!
No slacking off!
Stop chatting, damn it!
Hey, bastard! Why are you taking a rest?
Please forgive him.
This man is still too sick to get back to work.
Who cares if he's sick?
Villagers have to work for Ken-Oh-sama.
He'd better work harder to offset all the time he's rested!
Don't get cocky, you bastard!
- I'm not done with you yet! - Hey! No violence!
Dolfi-sama! How long have you been here?
Well, since today.
Ken-Oh-sama ordered me to guard this land.
No more violence.
But sir...
These villagers are precious assets to us.
Treat them with some respect!
Yes, sir.
Listen well, villagers!
I am not like the previous rulers.
I will build this village together with you guys.
I will also listen to your opinions.
You think it's true?
If it is true, then we're saved.
Our lives will become easier.
Well, villagers?
Do you have any complaints with your current situations?
Tell me any complaints you have.
Elder...
Actually, Dolfi-sama...
There's no way you have any complaints, right?
Say you do, and you're getting stabbed.
What's the matter? Tell me!
We have...
no complaints.
That's right!
You couldn't possibly have any complaints
with the way our Ken-Oh's troops do things!
You must all be working and living happily for Ken-Oh-sama!
- Damn you! - What's going on?
These guys look suspicious.
They drank from our spring without our consent!
What? Ken-Oh-sama's spring water?
That's a big no-no!
Wait, no violence. We'll hold a trial now.
Listen! These people drank our spring water without permission.
What do you all think we should do about it?
What do you think, Zenda?
I think those who drink our water should be executed.
Executed?
That's insane!
Yes, I agree. So, what do you think?
Everyone who agrees, raise their hands!
That's too cruel!
Do you disagree with me? Are you opposing me...?
No!
Then why don't you raise your hand?
Yes, sir.
He calls this asking for people's opinions?
It looks like everyone's in agreement.
Hey, elder! Don't tell me you're...
I oppose this.
What's that, you bastard?
You plan on ruining the record by opposing this alone?
It's still not too late! Raise your hand!
Agree to the execution!
I disagree!
What's the big deal if a few travelers drank a little water?
That water is for everyone! We used to share it freely!
I see... Your opinion is dangerous. You'll rebel against me someday.
We need to remove this dangerous seed while we can.
Get him, Zenda!
Well, then...
How terrible!
Grandpa!
It's fine... I...
I'd rather die than help a murderer...
Grandpa!
You did this for us, grandpa! I'm so sorry!
It looks like the opposition is gone now.
So everyone agrees to the execution, right?
You're horrible! All you're doing is bullying them!
What did you say?
- I oppose, too! - What?
I oppose, too!
- I oppose! - Yes, me too!
What's that?
After I went through the trouble of hearing you out!
Don't you understand how that makes me feel?
The elder was right!
I don't want to go on living if we have to help murderers!
Yeah! We may be weak, but we won't be stepped on forever!
How ungrateful you are...
I won't allow this! I can't do this anymore!
Kill the villagers, and get the rebellious ones first!
- Yes, sir! - Yes, sir!
Stop!
Don't do it. I'll take you on myself.
So you want to be executed that soon, huh?
I'll grant your wish. Get him!
Bed time for you, kid!
Don't touch the children!
You coward.
The Divine Fist of the North Star! So you must be Kenshiro?
That's another reason I can't let you live!
Kill him! Kill him!
What's the matter? Why are you afraid of?
- He's dangerous... - What!
He's too strong!
You dumb-ass!
Fine, Kenshiro! I'll take you on!
Very well.
Taishan Black Shadow Fist!
I've sent countless men to Hell with this art!
There's a secret trick to the Taizan Black Shadow Fist!
Now's my chance!
Ken!
That was close! I won't hold back next time!
The Divine Fist of the North Star is invincible.
Shut the hell up!
Ken!
It's alright.
There's no way Ken will lose. Right, mister?
Hey...
Who's there?
It's him, Kenshiro-san!
He's the one getting in your way!
Dolfi-sama's style makes him one with me!
Prepare to die!
Your partner's already down!
It's the end of the line for you.
Damn you!
You talk nice on the outside while you coerce people!
But you can't grasp their hearts that way.
What are you going to do with me?
Execute you.
What?
You loved to hear people's opinions...
So I'll do the same. Hey, partner!
Raise your hand if you agree to his execution!
What nonsense are-
What? My arm! It's moving on its own!
That jerk!
Looks like your partner agrees, so I'll execute you.
You can pay in Hell for making these villagers suffer.
Damn you! Why?
He struck my pressure point! My arm just lifted on its own!
Damn you, you bastard!
A toast for our brother Juza!
- Cheers! - Cheers!
You've got to have some fun while you're alive.
Let's drink up! Let's make some noise!
Who's she?
We found her collapsed near the castle.
She said she doesn't have any other place to go to.
You're a real hot one. How about you pour that for me?
Sure.
I've only got one weakness,
and that's beautiful women like you...
Where am I?
It's been a while, Juza.
Rihaku of the Ocean!
Let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Toh.
That was a dirty trick!
It was the only way I could bring you in.
Juza, you are one of the Five Chariot Stars.
It is your destiny to guard the last general of the South Star.
The last general's got nothing to do with me!
I'm not doing a thing! Go ask someone else.
- Are you sure, Juza? - Yeah.
Juza.
A woman?
I ask that you to give your life for me...
Would you accept my request, Juza?
It's you... It's really you!
Very well!
I, Juza of the Clouds, shall give my life to you!
With his destiny at stake, the warrior of the Clouds has risen!
Dismount that stallion, Ken-Oh!
JUZA OF THE CLOUDS RESURRECTS!
I HAVE NO FEAR FOR RAOH!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
Juza of the Clouds Resurrects!
I Have No Fear for Raoh!
I will protect the code of the North Star.
