Unable to see tomorrow...
At the edge of this never-ending journey!
IS THIS THE END OF RAOH AND HIS AMBITIONS?
THE HEAVEN HESITATES ONCE AGAIN!
Unconscious Transmigration!
So have you become the strongest man
in the 2,000 year history of the Divine Fist of the North Star
by bearing sadness?
I can see it...
The blood shed by those chosen men in battles...
flows within Kenshiro-sama!
The sadness that he absorbed from each battle
has embedded their secret techniques into Kenshiro-sama.
And the deeper the sadness in Kenshiro-sama's eyes,
the stronger Kenshiro-sama's fists will become!
Raoh... Toki is waiting.
The strongest man in the history of the Divine Fist of the North Star...
Kenshiro... my little brother,
you could never be the strongest man in the history.
Even if the world acknowledges it, I never will!
Kenshiro! I shall read your requiem!
Impossible!
I... I'm shaking...
Raoh is shaking...!
Raoh... that is called fear.
What!
For the first time, Raoh has learned what fear is.
Even if his heart does not feel it,
his body is surely sensing fear.
Impossible! I am Raoh, I feel no fear...
To... Toki!
You believe I am in fear?
Kim. You shall leave.
With your abilities, further training would only be a waste.
You do not have the potential to be the successor
to the Divine Fist of the North Star.
Master! Please give me one more chance!
You are never to enter this gate again.
Master!
Master! Master!
One more, one more chance!
Master...
Kenshiro.
I do not need sympathy!
Take care of yourself...
D... Damn it!
Why do you give me such a sad look?
Why!
Damn it! Damn it!
Kim-san...
It's embarrassing...
but crying seems to have cleared my heart.
Thank you, Kenshiro.
I'm glad I met you...
Kenshiro is feeling sympathy for others again, huh?
Raoh...
Such a fool.
Sympathy will only cloud your own art.
No... Kenshiro may yet become the strongest...
Those who know one's sadness
can turn that sadness into their own power.
I heard that from master Ryuken.
I believe it, too.
Idiot! Listen, Toki.
To live by the martial arts, and to be a ruler,
there is no room for sympathy.
The heaven will choose Raoh's way of life over Kenshiro's!
Toki, keep that in mind.
I objected to his way of life, and called him weak!
And now I fear him?
I, Raoh, fear the youngest brother, Kenshiro?
I can see what caused Raoh's fear.
It's the sorrow from the endless battles with all those men...
and his love for Yuria-sama.
I will not accept it!
Fear is not something I feel. It's something I fill others with!
I am the eldest brother of the North Star,
and the ruler of the century's end, Ken-Oh!
There is no retreat for me, only advancement!
Your Unconscious Transmigration...
I will crush it to pieces with my own fists!
Take this! Raoh's invincible fist!
Heaven's Command Charge!
Such extreme determination... as a man, and as eldest brother!
There is no backing down for me either.
Raoh. It's time to end your ambition.
I will protect the code of the North Star!
- Yuria-sama! - What is happening?
Yuria-sama!
The auras... both of their auras...
It's useless.
Raoh, that's enough.
I am Ken-Oh... I can never be defeated!
What's this... Raoh has thrown away his life!
For the first time he is prepared for death,
and is aiming for a mutual death!
Gouge my eyes out... Crush my hands, Kenshiro!
Even if you can, you shall see death!
Th... this is...
Raoh...
Kenshiro, it has come to an end...
Farewell, Raoh.
Die, Kenshiro!
Damn it! The final mechanism has been set off!
Kenshiro-sama, get down!
Damn you, Rihaku...
I was just one step away from defeating Kenshiro...
Yu... Yuria!
Ra... Raoh...
Luck is on my side!
The heavens have chosen Raoh after all!
- Raoh! - You will not have Yuria-sama!
Get lost!
Yuria!
Yuria-sama!
- Yuria-sama! - Yuria-sama!
- Rihaku-sama! - Kenshiro-sama!
- Rihaku-sama!
- Kenshiro-sama!
Are you Rihaku's men?
No, we are Yuria-sama's...
Yuria-sama was taken away by Raoh.
I see...
Ke... Kenshiro-sama, your eyes...
- Take care of Rihaku first. - Yes, sir.
Forgive me, Kenshiro-sama...
Because I could not read your powers,
Yuria-sama was taken away, and your eyes were wounded.
I, Rihaku of the Ocean, made the biggest mistake of my life...
Not to worry...
Kenshiro-sama, where are you going?
- I will follow Raoh. - What!
But Kenshiro-sama, your eyes... You can't see!
It will be alright.
Once... there was a man who kept fighting without his sight.
And that man lives within my heart.
Shu-sama...
Raoh will be like a wounded lion. If I don't defeat him now,
Raoh will crush everything he touches and go on a rage.
Kenshiro-sama...
Yuria...
Raoh finally has Yuria in his hands!
But he's indulged himself in fear and makes a mysterious move!
RAOH: THE CONFUSED GIANT!
I DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVE!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
Raoh, the Confused Giant!
I Don't Believe in Love!
I will protect the code of the North Star.
