Unable to see tomorrow...
At the edge of this never-ending journey!
Kenshiro stands before his goal, the capital of the South Star.
And between Kenshiro and Raoh who are destined to battle,
stands Juza.
Juza has stolen Raoh's prized stallion, Koku-Oh.
Will he challenge Raoh to battle once again?
Who will reach the capital of the South Star...
Raoh or Kenshiro?
And will the last general of the South Star be revealed?
JUZA FALLS!
I'LL GIVE MY LIFE TO PROTECT THE WOMAN I LOVE!
- I'd like this. - Try this one, too.
- I want that! - Hurry up!
- Come on, line up. - Thank you!
There's plenty so share it with everyone.
The weak and the strong can live as equals in this city.
With this much freedom, it's worth the hard work.
In our world today, it's a miracle.
And it's all thanks to the last general of the South Star.
Toh, how far has Kenshiro-sama come?
He's defeated Ken-Oh's Hilka squad, and is now quite close.
And what about Ken-Oh?
Currently, he has not moved out of the canyons.
But Juza will eventually attack him a second time.
Juza will most certainly defeat Raoh and halt his advance.
Kenshiro and Raoh.
I wonder... which one will fate draw to this castle first?
Juza...
My general.
I shall give my life to you.
Time to go.
Brother!
Brother, Ken-Oh still isn't moving.
He hasn't moved an inch from that canyon!
Is that so?
Let's go, brother! This time we'll finish him!
- Alright! - Yeah!
You're not coming.
Don't do that to us now!
This is not your fight.
From this point on, the battle is between me and Ken-Oh.
Honestly, you'd just slow me down!
So long, guys!
- Brother! - Brother!
- Bro... - Hey, brother!
You've got to live on. Take a hold of your own lives!
- Bro... - Brother!
That is my village.
We're almost at the capital of the South Star as well.
Please be careful.
There may be more of Hilka's men.
- Dad! - Dad!
Everyone's here!
Hana, Tem and Mitsu, everyone's alright!
So you were all safe? Everyone...
Thank goodness!
- Father Fudo! - What's wrong?
Mister!
- Dad! - Father Fudo!
What's wrong?
- Dad! - Dad!
- How horrible! - How horrible!
That's terrible!
That's from..!
He's blinding us with a sand storm!
Kenshiro-san! Please catch them!
Nice try! Shoot! Shoot!
He's been keeping quiet ever since then...
- Dad! - Dad!
You've come, Juza...
Go! Return to your master.
Have you come back to throw away your life, Juza?
Not without a good reason. See, I get lonely easily...
So I thought I'd take you along with me.
Hearing you say it, I almost believe it.
Stand back, men!
If you don't want to be killed by our fighting spiritual energy.
Stand back! Don't interfere with Ken-Oh-sama!
- All troops, fall back! - Retreat!
My body hasn't burned like this in a while...
I'd like to see if you truly can stop me, Juza!
I'll bear witness to your secret technique!
Without this secret technique, I wouldn't be able to stop you.
Watch the essence of my art, and burn it into your eyes.
He took off his armor!
He stands defenceless before Ken-Oh-sama!
What's he got this time?
The essence of my self-taught style is having no alternative.
Having armor makes one careless and weak.
The last alternative is what determines life or death.
Raoh! You know it well, how powerful that can be.
They say even a mouse will bite a cat if cornered...
You've wagered your own life to become that mouse, Juza.
But a mouse cannot defeat a lion!
Come on, Juza! I, Ken-Oh, will crush you!
He's got oil over his body!
I've got you!
Dam Breaking Fist!
Ken-Oh-sama!
That's a powerful hit!
You gathered all your energy for an instant fatal strike!
I see it now, Juza!
Your secret technique lies in fighting at point-blank range!
Just what I'd expect from you, Raoh.
So you could even see through my last technique in an instant.
I'm impressed that you could strike my shoulders...
to avoid that fatal blow.
Indeed, I did.
That is the pressure point called "Kyomei".
It's over, Juza! Those hands will crumble away!
I'm sorry. Did that hurt?
- I pushed it too hard. - No, it's alright.
- Are you going to die, dad? - No way! Of course he won't!
Don't die, dad! Please don't...
- Don't die! - Dad!
Oh, come on now!
I'm not going to die from a wound like this.
I'm fine, everyone.
No need to worry.
Now, let me go for a bit. Dad still has to go somewhere.
Come on, Kenshiro-san.
- Dad! - Dad!
- You can't, mister! - Not like that...
Come on, this is nothing!
- Don't. - What?
Fudo. I can't take you with me.
What are you saying? These wounds are nothing!
It's my destiny as Fudo of the Mountains, the Five Chariot Stars,
to take you to the last general of the South Star!
Even if my body may perish!
This isn't for your sake.
What would these children do without you?
- Dad! - Dad! Don't go!
For them, you're all they've got.
You are their father and their mother.
However...
Fudo, you must not die.
I am so ashamed...
Live in peace.
Please wait!
I have no reason to conceal this any longer...
I will tell you who the last general of the South Star is!
Come on! Attack me, Raoh.
- What the hell? - Has he gone mad from fear?
What is he thinking?
His whole body is wide open. Is he ready to die?
Or is this another one of his tricks?
I've already sealed his hands...
Very well!
I'll send you off to hell!
General...
I made up my mind the moment I met you.
I knew my life was no longer mine.
This is the end!
I'm taking one of your arms with me to hell!
Got it!
You would trade your life for just one of my arms?
Don't be so petty! I think it's a pretty good deal!
Just a little longer... Just hold a little longer...
Your determination! Where does it come from?
This is all for the last general of the South Star Six Sacred Fists!
Just who is this last general?
I won't say!
If I did, you'd rush to our general like the wind!
The last thing you desire, even after seizing the heavens...
That is our general!
What?
Is the general someone I know?
Looks like I've said too much...
Just a little more, and I'll break your arm!
Juza, you've underestimated the power of the King of Fists!
That's impossible!
Ken-Oh's iron body never crumbles!
Never breaks! Never yields!
Is that all, Juza?
Secret pressure point, "Kaiamon Tenchou!"
You will now talk, whether you like it or not!
Now answer me, Juza! Who is this general?
Why would I tell you?
If you don't tell me,
even your pores will spew blood as your body collapses.
Tell me, who is the last general!
Tell me... Spit it out!
We've completely concealed our general's identity until now.
There's only one reason for that...
To keep it from reaching the ears
of the terrifying ruler of the century's end, Ken-Oh.
If he ever knew, Raoh would ruthlessly rush to the capital.
Our general is a woman.
A... woman?
Did you say, woman?
Indeed. The last general of the South Star Six Sacred Fists is...
Now tell me! Who is the last general?
I won't talk! So kill me...
I won't kill you! Not until I hear that name!
Spit it out, who is it?
That woman is...
the woman you loved, Yuria-sama!
Yu... Yuria?
They live within time, the lonely whispers
While fumbling, I recall warmth and lonesomeness
Sparkling dazzlingly, I embrace your body now!
Yes, to the person I love, time drifts away
To the wandering heart, tomorrow is invisible...
Kenshiro.
Who is the general?
I won't say it... I won't say it!
I'll never talk!
Will Juza, the warrior of the Clouds, survive?
His solid determination shakes the heaven and earth!
FAREWELL: YURIA!
A STRONG MAN WILL NOT SPEAK OF LOVE: EVEN IN DEATH!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
Farewell, Yuria!
A Strong Man Will Not Speak of Love, Even in Death!
I will protect the code of the North Star.
