Unable to see tomorrow...
At the edge of this never-ending journey!
Toh, I am sorry.
Yuria-sama, who you protected with your life,
was abducted by Ken-Oh.
But I will not let it end like this!
For the honor of the Five Chariot Stars,
I swear that I will bring Yuria-sama back!
Toh... Rest in peace.
- Rihaku-sama. - How was it?
Please forgive me. I couldn't catch up to Koku-Oh.
I lost sight of him.
With wounds like that, I doubt he will go far.
Where could he have gone? I'm worried about Yuria-sama.
Yes, sir.
RAOH: THE CONFUSED GIANT!
I DON'T BELIEVE IN LOVE!
I am Raoh!
Ken-Oh, the King of Fists, ruler of the century's end...
Do I now fear even dreams?
Who's there!
It's just Usa, sir.
You are still awake, Ken-Oh-sama?
It must have been quite a fight,
for you to have collapsed as soon as you arrived here.
Did you treat me?
No sir, it was Yuria-sama.
What?
Yuria-sama's treatment was amazing indeed.
It was, how shall I put it... very caring.
Did you have a change of heart, Yuria?
I am still waiting for Kenshiro.
Will you continue to fight? You have already lost.
You are a wounded and weary lone warrior.
Yuria! Do you pity Raoh...?
Will the South Star of the Merciful Mother give her mercy...
Even to me?
This is your chance, Ken-Oh-sama.
No matter what she says, Yuria-sama has a thing for you!
I wish I was in your shoes!
Silence!
Ken-Oh-sama! What has angered you?
Trash like you would not understand!
Well, I don't...
Did I do something wrong?
I don't understand!
There's no greater shame for a man to be pitied by the woman he loves!
With this shame...
I no longer need the name Ken-Oh!
I shall become a monster... No, the Demon King!
I shall drown Kenshiro in an ocean of blood!
I am Jado, of Ken-Oh's forces!
I won't let you get to Ken-Oh-sama!
Don't bother. Just get out of my way.
Huh?
Looks like you can't see.
Men! Step on the gas! Make some noise!
Seal his ears with your engines!
Kenshiro! Now that your eyes are wounded,
you rely on your ears alone!
But if we seal those ears with explosive noise,
you won't be able to do a thing!
Shu, my friend.
Shu, of the South Star White Heron Fist.
Revive within my soul.
Go!
- Die!
That's... South Star Sacred Fist!
The South Star White Heron Fist, Furious Foot Sky Dance!
That's Shu's lethal technique!
You can fight without sight and sound?
The Divine Fist of the North Star secret technique,
Water Shadow Mind!
With the Divine Fist of the North Star,
one can absorb any style he's fought in the past!
There was a man who was blind,
but he was able to see through his soul and fought on!
His spirit lives on within me!
Damn you! Then I'll take you on!
Die!
Tell me. Where is Ken-Oh?
Go find him yourself!
I've already struck your pressure point.
What?
You'll start speaking against your will.
That, or go "boom."
That's crazy!
What?
My arm's moving on its own...
Where is he?
He is heading north, sir.
I see.
Damn it! I talked!
Hey, aren't you going to save me now?
Forgive me already!
I lied about that pressure point.
Wait, you lied? You cheater! What's going to happen to me?
I still can't move my body!
Sleep there until you're done repenting.
If you force yourself to move, you really will go boom.
I'm onto you! That's another lie, isn't it?
How's that? You really were bluffing!
I'm not letting you fool me twice!
Raoh...
Ken.
Ken... Kenshiro!
I have spent all my life waiting for him.
It is my destiny to keep waiting, and it's my promise to Ken.
I will wait until he returns from his fight with Raoh.
As long as it takes.
I will keep waiting, Kenshiro.
As long as it takes!
As Ken-Oh, I conquered the century's end!
However...
I've lost to Kenshiro...
and the legendary technique, Unconscious Transmigration!
I am the eldest of the North Star!
How can I lose to the youngest, Kenshiro...?
That's it, brother! Beat him up!
Beat him so that he'll never stand again!
How's that?
Kenshiro, give up on becoming the successor to the North Star!
Brother Raoh is not even in the same class as you!
You still want to fight, Kenshiro?
Do you still wish to challenge me?
Very well!
Let my hard fist style teach you a lesson you'll never forget!
That's it, big brother! Get him!
Big brother!
That's enough for today! Take him away...
Big brother, why didn't you finish him off?
You ought to finish him.
Let him give up his hopes of being the successor...
And kick him out of here!
Jagi!
I can finish him off whenever I wish.
Is that so?
Toki!
His spiritual energy is so strong
that he presses on no matter how hard you trample him.
Stronger yesterday than the day before...
Stronger today than yesterday.
How much stronger will he be tomorrow?
Having fought him with your own fists,
you know better than anyone.
You are raising a powerful foe with your own hands.
The day will come when Kenshiro will threaten you.
It looks to me that you're looking forward to it!
That's impossible! What are you talking about?
Enough, Jagi!
There will never be anyone who can threaten...
the eldest brother of the North Star!
Kenshiro will never be able to surpass me.
And should he stand in my way, I'll finish him off personally!
It's impossible!
How can I be afraid of Kenshiro?
No way!
It is impossible! I must be delirious...
Yet every time I think of him, shivers run though my body.
I felt this same sensation once before... a long time ago!
That spiritual energy... that of a demon!
It was him!
The man who made me fearful, just once in my youth!
Whether this fear is real or not...
I'll find out by swallowing that man's spiritual energy!
What's this?
Rihaku-sama!
The flow of the clouds have suddenly sped up!
I have never seen the sky like this!
I see, it's Raoh! He's on the move!
What are you going to do, Raoh?
What? Yuria-sama was...?
Yes!
- She was taken by Ken-Oh! - What about Ken?
He's gone after Ken-Oh into the wasteland.
But his eyes were wounded in the battle with Ken-Oh...
No way!
- You mean he can't see? - Ken!
We beg you to lend us your strength, Fudo-sama!
We beg you!
It is the duty of the Five Chariot Stars...
to save the last general of the South Star, Yuria-sama.
But if I leave, who will take care of the children?
What's the matter, Fudo-sama?
- Well... - Please hurry!
Fudo-sama, please stand up!
Fudo-sama!
Dad!
- Here, dad! - Fight!
We'll be fine!
But... I can't leave you guys.
Don't worry! We're your children, aren't we?
This is important, right?
Go ahead, dad! We'll work hard and wait for you!
You guys...
- Dad! Fight! - Come back soon!
- Hey, these kids are great! - They're Fudo-san's children, after all!
Thank you, you guys!
Alright, your dad's off! And he's coming back for sure!
Fudo!
Whether you move or not, I have come for you!
Raoh! What brings you here?
I want your fists, and your life!
To erase the fear from this body, and become the Demon King...
I need the demon's blood flowing within you!
Fudo, you are now a good man, beloved by all!
But no matter how hard you try and conceal yourself,
a demon's blood flows within you!
I have come for that demon's blood...
in order to defeat Kenshiro!
A explosive battle! Raoh versus Fudo!
When fighting spiritual energy flows and the heaven roars,
the demon is revived!
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star!
A CHALLENGE FROM THE DEVIL!
FUDO: BE A DEMON FOR THOSE YOU LOVE!
A Challenge from the Devil!
Fudo, Be a Demon for Those You Love!
I will protect the code of the North Star.
