Another me?
Are you the one who called me?
Are you the Celestial Emperor?
The Celestial Emperor, Lui-sama...
Lin, I've heard about you!
The sad story of my little sister.
Where are you, Lin?
Sister!
I'm sorry. You've been put through so much hardship.
No, sister...
Though I was abandoned, life was much happier for me.
Lin!
They met the Celestial Emperor in a cavern beneath the Capital!
She was Lin's long lost sister Lui,
separated at birth!
The heavens!
The divided heavens are coming together again!
AN ELEGY FOR EIN!
BETTER TO DIE BRAVELY THAN LIVE WITHOUT HONOR!!
Uh-oh.
- Watch out! - Lin!
Myu-sama!
Get down!
Out of the way! This is a job for grown ups!
Ein!
Fools!
I never intended to let the Celestial Emperor live anyway!
I just used the Celestial Emperor to control Falco.
Now, Falco and Kenshiro's strength has been exhausted!
I'll crush them both... and seize the heavens myself!
He's using his prosthetic leg as a pivot!
Since I only have one leg,
I've waited for you to exhaust your strength,
and your defence to dwindle.
This tempered leg is a deadly weapon!
Can you intercept this kick?
Here's the finishing strike!
- Falco-sama! - Falco-sama's been...
Impressive...
Aiming for the prosthetic leg from a blind spot below.
I've hit your pressure point, ''kaketsu.''
The battle is over.
Is that so?
In the 2,000 year history of the Imperial Fist of the Source Star,
North Star-cancelling techniques have been developed!
Did he just cut off his own pressure point
at the cellular level!?
Our fight has just begun, Kenshiro.
Ein...
- You didn't... - Ein...
Ein?
Ein!
That was a little heavy...
Ein! Hang in there, Ein!
So much blood...
- I'll stop it! - Wait!
I'll be fine. Your clothes aren't meant for my wounds.
The only ones who can stop Falco and Ken from fighting
are you and Lui.
Wipe away the blood that the two have needlessly shed!
I'm counting on you, Lin.
Ein, are you...
Come on, Princess.
Alright! I can do this.
I'll get us out of here!
At this rate, they'll both be...
Kenshiro-san!
They've both reached their limit?
What incredible fighting spirits they have!
They're practically equals.
Kenshiro, why didn't you close in sooner?
- If you had I'd be dead. - I don't know...
But, your eyes are still.... trying to say something.
They hold back my fist...
What?
Jakoh!
Fools!
That's right! Keep wasting your strength!
Take aim!
Kill them! Crush them both!
This is the end for you!
Fire!
Looks like he tried to use this to split the bedrock.
There's a well being dug here.
There should be a waterway below.
Well then, that makes things easy.
- Ein? - Use the water!
Break through this bedrock, and ride the water out.
- What? - How? We've got no tools!
You guys might not have what it takes...
But I've been saving my special weapon!
Weapon?
There's NOTHING this fist can't smash through.
Don't! With your condition, you couldn't handle it!
You can't push yourself. Don't do it, Ein.
Man, kicking me while I'm down...
Fools! If you don't stop Ken and Falco immediately,
it'll be too late!
Falco?
No, it might be too late already.
Just let me handle this.
This is when you need that ace in the hole.
Come on, beloved fist of mine!
Damn!
My men! You all protected me?
Kenshiro! Even you? Why?
I just thought that you didn't deserve
to be taken down by a deceptive coward.
The great Jakoh's attack has just begun!
Attach explosive warheads to the arrows!
I'll blow you both to smithereens!
Die!
This is a tough one. It won't even budge!
Ein, stop! You can't, you'll die!
It'll be fine, Lin. Just stand back.
One more time!
- This thing's tough... - Stop, Ein.
That's enough. If you keep pushing it, you really will die.
Bat, I made a promise to Asuka that...
one of these days, I would make my own history.
I was just a bounty hunter who went after scumbags...
But I'm better than that.
When Asuka has grown up and tells people about me...
She's going to take pride in her old man.
I promised her that much.
I'm not just fighting for you. I'm fighting for Asuka, too!
So step aside...
Even if it burns me out, I'll bet everything on this fist!
One more shot!
Ein!
Why...
Why won't it break?
Ein!
Why, is my life not good enough for you?
What a snob! You're an asshole...
- Water! - Water?
I did it, Asuka...
Prepare to fire!
What the...
...hell!?
Jakoh-sama!
Ken! Falco! The Celestial Emperor is safe!
Your enemy now... Your only enemy is Jakoh!
Ein!
Lin, can you see them? Ken and Falco?
Yes, clearly.
That's great.
Ein! Are your eyes...
Ein!
- Ein! - Daddy!
What's wrong with daddy?
Pull yourself together, Ein! You can't go out like this!
Looks like this is it for me.
You fool!
You still have a job left, you have to look after Asuka!
If you died now, what would happen to her?
Weren't you going to take her to the land of green on an airship?
Right, pops!?
I don't have to worry if you're around.
I know you guys will make plenty of green fields.
Of course we will, Ein.
But I am still worried about trusting you guys with Asuka...
You could make her into a real tomboy!
You fool...
Bat!
Dying for a woman... is really something.
Ein!
Wasn't that too cool? Oh well, whatever...
Ein, you...
I can see it now... the land of green.
A man's life is the wind
As it passes you by, It's just a fleeting dream
But a single grain's love...
Can carry you someplace, so far, very far away
And there, with the rain of your kindness...
It can give bloom to beautiful flowers
And there, with the rain of your kindness
It can give bloom to beautiful flowers.
There's no telling what tomorrow will bring
Asuka...
Which makes it all the more important...
That we're alive today.
You fool...
Quit acting so damned cool!
The North Star and the Source Star! Their duel of fate is about to end!
So, will the light return to the wastelands of the century's end?
On the next episode of Fist of the North Star 2!
THE FALL OF THE IMPERIAL CAPITAL!
JAKOH, YOU CAN DREAM IN HELL!!
