Having been appointed Wakagashira, Himuro Renji (Yasukaze Motomiya), head of the Yamazaki-gumi of Kyowakai, moves forward under the Kyowakai crest alongside fellow newly promoted assistant Wakagashira Tamura (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi), aiming for the unification of the Japanese yakuza world. Meanwhile, a dispute breaks out in Aomori between members of the Kyokuzankai in Tohoku and the Kanto-based Marugami-kai, resulting in the death of a Kyokuzankai member. The incident casts a dark shadow over both sides, pushing tensions to the brink of conflict. Seeking to avoid an all-out war, Kyokuzankai executive Ueki (Daisuke Nagakura) asks Himuro to mediate. Himuro enters negotiations with Munakata (Takanori Kikuchi), assistant to the Marugami-kai chairman. As yakuza across Japan watch closely, what decision will Himuro make…?
