Jagi separates a pair of young brothers from each other as a punishment. The younger brother, Aki, is chained to a giant rock and forced to walk into the desert, while the elder one, Mako, is programmed by a Hokuto Shinken technique to kill Kenshiro. Ken comes across Aki and takes him back home, where he frees Mako from Jagi's control. Ken then heads for Jagi's headquarters, where Jagi has just killed one of his own men for seeing his disfigured face.
