Kun, having just been released from prison, announces his intention to run for chairman. His candidacy shocks Lok, who must now navigate this unexpected challenge from his former underling.

Instead of backing Kun, Lok chooses to support Jet's candidacy, believing it will strengthen his own position. Jet’s reputation is contentious, creating tension with the triad elders who question Lok's judgment.

The triad elders consider Jimmy a strong candidate for chairman, but he is uncertain as he wants to pivot his business towards legitimacy. This internal conflict puts him at odds with the expectations of triad leadership.

During a business trip aimed at greasing the palms of a local official, Jimmy and Lik are arrested. Their release comes through intervention from high-ranking policeman Xi, who emphasizes the necessity of Jimmy becoming chairman.

Lok invites Kun on a fishing trip to persuade him to withdraw his candidacy. Instead, they find common ground to eliminate Jimmy, highlighting the brewing rivalry and desperation for power.

To maintain his grip on power, Jimmy hires hitman Bo and orchestrates the murder of Lik. This shocking act demonstrates the lengths individuals in the triad world are willing to go to protect their interests.

Kun executes a daring kidnapping of Mr. Kwok, Jimmy’s financial backer. This bold strategy aims to pressure Jimmy into withdrawing from the election, showcasing the ruthless tactics employed in this power struggle.

Under pressure from Uncle Teng, Lok makes the brutal decision to commit murder to eliminate his rivals. This act of violence reveals the dark realities of maintaining power within the triad.

As tensions escalate, Jet confronts Jimmy which reveals that he has been manipulated. This exchange leads to unexpected alliances and foreshadows further conflict as loyalties shift.

The rivalry culminates in tragic outcomes, including Lok's betrayal and eventual death at the hands of those he once trusted. The fallout not only affects him but also sends shockwaves across the triad.

Following Lok's demise, Jimmy ascends to the chairmanship amidst the chaos. However, he quickly realizes that his position is precarious, filled with betrayals and looming threats.

As Jimmy contemplates his role within the triad, he learns of his wife's pregnancy. This revelation forces him to confront his legacy and the potential for change in his life beyond the triad's violent ways.

In a dramatic twist, Jimmy finds himself at odds with Xi, who has become a significant player in his ambitions. The precarious nature of their relationship sets the stage for future conflict as loyalties are tested.

The film concludes with the overwhelming sense that the cycle of violence and betrayal within the triad will continue. Jimmy's decisions will ultimately shape the future for himself and his growing family within this dangerous world.
