Fearing Kenshiro of the Clan of the North Star,
Kaioh had deceived Hyoh, Kenshiro's own brother,
into entering the dark world and fighting Kenshiro.
A battle between two true brothers bound by blood!
Will the winner be Kenshiro? Or will it be Hyoh?
At last, Kaioh removes his mask in front of Lin.
A TEARFUL REUNION OF BROTHERS!
KENSHIRO, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU!!
His evil fighting spiritual energy has faded!
That's...
The aura of the God of Battle.
Hyoh entered the dark world. Why would he have that aura?
Has Hyoh also awaken to the Clan of the North Star?
The aura of the God of Battles is crying.
Again... the past!
My consciousness is slipping away!
What's wrong with me?
My eyes, they won't open. My body won't move.
Oh yeah, the destructive point that Jukei-sama struck...
I have to protect you, above all others.
I have to protect you!
This era of battles...
You're still a baby.
I must... I must protect you...
Who is it?
Jukei-sama?
Forgive me, Hyoh.
This is for the sake of this era, and for the future of this land.
Where are you taking him? Jukei-sama!
I must... I must protect him.
I can move! Hurry... hurry! I have to go after Jukei-sama!
That's...
Raoh! Toki!
And, that must be...
Kenshiro!
Kenshiro?
The God of Battle disappeared.
What was that?
Could his memories have...?
Hyoh's style has changed.
That's it!
That's the traditional art of the Clan of the North Star!
What?
So, the seal on his memories really has been broken?
Evil Disturbance Light Palm!
That was close.
If I had been a centimeter closer and I'd have been...
What's the matter, Kenshiro? Had enough?
This is my brother's style of the Clan of the North Star?
But I can't be defeated.
Come on, Hyoh!
Ken's finally decided?
They duel now as the two Gods of Battle.
But the Clan of the North Star's power is infinite!
When two infinite powers collide, it only leads to...
They'll both fall?
After an endless fight, the two will collapse together!
Will the Clan of the North Star be destroyed?
And Kaioh's era come?
I suppose his memories didn't return after all...
Lin! Love and compassion may become extinct.
But evil will flourish.
I, Kaioh, shall become the final victor.
No, I'll say it again and again...
The final victor will be the one who lives with love!
You still believe in that foolish crap?
- Don't come any closer! - What?
If you come any closer, I'll kill myself!
I don't care if you don't want to bear my child...
Go ahead and die!
If I had any love or compassion within me,
my heart might hurt a bit. But all I am is evil!
Even if you die, there won't be even a slight surge in my heart!
Now, go ahead and die. I'll bear witness to it here.
Come, Kenshiro!
Stake your life and bring it on!
How regrettable that I cannot move...
When I need to the most!
It will end... The Clan of the North Star will perish here!
His killer intent is gone!
What power! It almost breaks my hand that blocks his!
He's strong.
That was strong enough to rip my guts out.
But what was with Hyoh's eyes just now?
His killer intent faded for a moment.
At that moment, he could have truly been my brother!
They'll end this battle with their next blows.
The two will collapse, and it will all end.
Will the era of Demon Kaioh come to pass?
Ken!
My brother!
If I could, I wanted to awaken you from that dark world...
But here instead, with my own fists...
Hyoh... I will defeat you.
What's this? Those eyes filled with grief...
What?
Kenshiro, are you...?
Farewell, Hyoh.
Kenshiro!
The finishing strike!
Tears!
Shachi...
Forgive me, Kenshiro. There was...
There was no other way.
Shachi... Why?
Kenshiro... I wanted you to live.
Kaioh's era would come if you both fell, and I can't allow that.
I don't care if you scorn me as a coward...
I know I'm a fool...
And I'll atone for it with my death!
Farewell, Ken!
This is for the best, Shachi.
His face...
Did his memories return?
Hyoh...
It's fine, Shachi. Even if you hadn't struck,
I would have been defeated...
By my brother Kenshiro!
His memories really had returned!
Hyoh, I'm sorry.
Hyoh, when did your memories...?
When grief burst within me.
The point when your evil aura vanished,
and the crying aura of the God of Battle had appeared?
Each of Kenshiro's strikes brought back my memories.
But it was all too late...
Then, I wanted to fight with you as a warrior,
to be certain of your fists! I was then ready to die after that.
Kenshiro, let me ask you one thing...
Have you ever laid hands on a woman named Sayaka?
No, never. This is the first time I've heard that name.
It figures...
I'm truly a foolish man, deceived by Kaioh yet again.
Hyoh!
My memories weren't stolen by Jukei... It was Kaioh!
Kaioh?
That's right. Now I remember it clearly!
You fool! How could anyone BE this foolish!?
In that case...
I'll seal your memories into your body forever!
No! I mustn't lose my memories!
Not until...
Not until the day my younger brother Kenshiro returns!
Ken!
So, that's how it was... Kaioh interfered with your memories.
Kaioh ridicules love.
However, look here! That foolish love moved Shachi,
and saved Kenshiro!
A man's life is the wind. As it passes you by...
But, that love...
Having lived with that foolish love...
I don't regret at all.
What's most important...
Kenshiro...
He realizes he's lost it, and turns back around again...
I've been waiting for you to come.
You can't even wipe away
the rain falling on your cheeks, try as you may in vain...
You've grown splendidly...
You've become strong.
That Kenshiro who used to be so small...
So I want you to show me, even just a little...
that rainbow smile of yours
And there, with the rain of your kindness...
We finally meet, Kenshiro.
I've been waiting for you, Kenshiro!
It can give bloom to beautiful flowers...
My younger brother!
Brother...
There's no telling what tomorrow will bring
Which makes it all the more important
that we're alive today...
