Family 2

Takashi and his rescued wife Mariko escape the assault on Mutsumi HQ and take refuge with Mr. Shao in Chinatown. Hideshi intensifies his pursuit of Takeshi, turning the manhunt into a family affair. The authorities close in as the fugitives scramble to stay one step ahead.

Hideshi locates Takeshi working in an alligator costume selling balloons. The odd job signals Takeshi's precarious, undercover life. Rie urges him to seek a legitimate occupation and they hole up in a church near the geisha house run by her father.

Rie spends time caring for a high school friend who has been hospitalized after a car accident for which she was driving. The strain of past choices weighs on her as she tries to balance danger and loyalty. Her ties to the geisha world complicate her relationships with Takeshi and Hideshi.

Rie's mother dies and she clashes with her stepmother Chiharu Ishibashi, who now runs the geisha house. Chiharu sells information about Rie's location to Kenmochi's men for 20 million yen, deepening the rift in the family and the underworld web. The revelation escalates tension as undercover plots unfold.

Takeshi visits his mother Haruko in a care home, where she calls him Iwaida in confusion and reveals that she became pregnant with Iwaida's son and raised him as Takeshi. Hideshi confirms the story while considering why Nishiwaki would want Iwaida killed if he knew the truth. The revelations complicate loyalties between brothers.

Kenmochi's men arrive at the church, but Chiharu throws herself between them and Rie, dying from gunshot wounds. Hideshi seizes the moment to grab Rie as Takeshi shoots the intruders, asserting his own power in the melee. The church shooting marks a brutal turning point for the family.

Hideshi returns home to his wife and daughter Natsumi in Yokohama. Officer Shiraki informs him that Yamaguchi wants his help solving the Iwaida murder in Kyoto and that Takeshi, the hitman, is Hideshi's younger brother. Hideshi arranges to release a jailed pastor and sends Shiraki to probe Kenmochi and the Mutsumi group.

Hideshi moves Takeshi and Rie to a dojo, though Takeshi distrusts Mr. Maki, the head of the school. Tono explains that Maki once sheltered Hideshi after his father's killer's death, and learning karate under Maki helps his heart heal. The dojo becomes a sanctuary amid the violence.

Tono accompanies Hideshi, his wife, and their daughter Natsumi on a boat ride when three men on personal watercraft circle and fire, though no one is killed. The assault underscores the constant danger surrounding the family. The attackers vanish as quickly as they appeared.

Hisako offers herself to Hideshi to gain influence with Nishiwaki and to push Omaeda out of power. Hideshi rejects the alliance, preferring to pursue his own path and avoid being drawn into her plans. The moment reveals the ongoing power struggles within the underworld.

Shiraki informs Hideshi that Kenmochi is trying to blackmail Nishiwaki based on information Iwaida knew that led to his death. The revelation ties past wartime dealings to current criminal power. Hideshi and Nishiwaki become entangled in a dangerous conspiracy.

Haruko commits suicide, and the three brothers attend her wake to honor her last wish of returning her ashes to the family home. The event deepens the rift andcements loyalties as the underworld war closes in. The family mourns while old grievances resurface.

Armed men attack the family home and kill Takashi as Mariko grieves. The ambush marks a devastating blow to the siblings and raises the stakes for revenge and power. The loss reverberates through the remaining family and their associates.

Hisako tortures Omaeda to extract information, and he eventually talks after drugging. He confirms Nishiwaki sold information about the postwar underworld to GHQ, a secret that shaped Nishiwaki's fortune. The truth ties the past to the present danger and sets up the cliffhanger.

Hideshi arranges to travel with Nishiwaki to the Philippines to finalize the counterfeit money deal. In Manila, Nishiwaki is attacked by a helicopter shooter and guerrillas on the beach as the brothers close in. Hisako reappears with higher ambitions as Hideshi and Takeshi arrive to kill Nishiwaki.
