The Young Dragons

Long and Yun Fei eye a shipment of guns from Lei Hu in Longshan Town. Jin and his men ambush the transport, causing the rest to be dumped into the ocean, while Jin salvages a single gun. The failed deal sparks retaliation and raises Jin's profile in the underground.

Jin begins staying in Rouge's room at the brothel, using the cover to lay low after taking the gun. The arrangement draws attention from Long's circle and tests loyalties on both sides. Tension simmers as they watch each other.

On a bridge, Fan Ming helps Jin fight off Yun Fei and his men. The skirmish reveals Fan Ming's combat prowess and cements a fragile alliance of convenience between Jin and the inspector. They manage to escape the encounter with their lives.

After the fight, Jin asks Fan Ming what his name is. Fan Ming refuses to reveal one, calling himself only a passer-by. The exchange foreshadows a wary partnership built on necessity.

Fan Ming travels to meet his beloved Yan Hong and learns that her father, Mr. Ye, has been killed by Long for refusing to join the gun smuggling. He also reunites with Xiaohong and Xiaohong's sister. The revelation deepens the stakes for Yan Hong and Fan Ming.

Jin sells the gun he took to Lei Hu for a high price and sets up a public gun deal. Lei Hu's men arrive expecting the shipment, only to find empty boxes labeled with Japanese text. Jin and his crew defeat them and walk away with their money.

Yun Fei informs Long that Fan Ming, the inspector leader, has arrived in Shanghai. Long orders Fan Ming to be captured, while Yun Fei swears vengeance for the past. The city braces for a confrontation between rival factions.

Yun Fei and his men kidnap Xiaohong's sister to force Xiaohong to tell Fan Ming that Long is arranging a gun deal at White Stone Hill. The coercion heightens the pressure on Fan Ming and Xiaohong. The stage is set for a deadly confrontation at White Stone Hill.

Jin's aide Guy alerts Jin about a gun-deal meeting at White Stone Hill. Yun Fei's men ambush Xiaohong, Fan Ming, and Guy during the confrontation, and Long watches as they are killed. The plan to trap Fan Ming collapses in a violent turn.

Jin visits Ye residence to inform Yan Hong that Fan Ming is dead and urges her to flee with him for safety from Long and his men. Yan Hong later stays secretly in Rouge's room at the brothel, paid for by Jin, to keep her protected.

Long demands the guns from Lei Hu, who still believes Jin retains them. Jin agrees to a trade: the guns in exchange for the man who killed Fan Ming, with a meeting tentatively set for two days later. Lei Hu arranges for Rouge and other girls to entertain Long, Yun Fei, and Lei Hu that night to secure the plan.

Jin leads a final assault on Long's residence. He defeats Long and Lei Hu, and then faces Yun Fei in a lengthy duel; both men break each other's necks and die. Police arrive to find the corpses as Fan Ming recovers and Chief Ma apologizes for past harm.
