Summary |
Three disciples, Taikan, Choei, and Giryu are taught by karate master Eiken Shibara in a remote mountain dojo. When the Japanese military police attempt to seize the training hall, the three disciples resist and soundly defeat them. Afterwards, on his death bed, their master bids his pupils to focus their skills inward and decide who is worthy of being his successor and inheriting his black belt. Taikan and Giryu are the only viable candidates. They follow different paths on their journey to discovering the meaning behind their master's last words. |
