Before Kaioh, Kenshiro hopelessly collapsed! But Shachi risks his life to flee with Kenshiro, and he miraculously revives!

Meanwhile, Kaioh has heard the news of Kenshiro's revival, and killed his little sister with his own hands! What blood plot does does Kaioh have in mind? And what destiny awaits Kenshiro, who will challenge Kaioh once again?

A Challenge From Kenshiro!
I Never Lose Twice!!

Hyoh makes his way towards Kaioh's castle. But as he gets there, he sees Kaioh, who is holding Sayaka's body. Kaioh passes Sayaka over to him, and says he is too late.

Hyoh asks why this had to happen, and then cries out.

Elsewhere in the castle, an Asura throws Lin into a cell. He tells her that Kaioh has ordered that she can't see anyone, and can't talk to anyone. So she's to stay here and be quiet. He locks her in the cell. Lin sees that the cell just has a single small window in it, which she can't get to. She says that Kaioh killed his own sister, and is a heartless demon who would do anything to defeat Ken, and the North Star clan.

Hyoh asks who did this to Sayaka. Kaioh says it was done by Kenshiro, the successor to the North Star divine fist. Kaioh says the North Star divine fist is corrupt, how could Kenshiro lay a hand on a woman who didn't even resist. He says Sayaka ended up this way simply because she was his sister.

Kaioh asks Hyoh to forgive him, for not preventing this from happening. He vows to defeat Kenshiro as his penance to him. Hyoh knocks his hand away, and says he doesn't need his help.

He places down the bag of jewels onto Sayaka, and places a ring on her finger. He tells her to rest in peace, and he, her fiancee, swears vengeance.

He says he won't forgive Kenshiro, and will crush both Kenshiro and the North Star divine fist. Kaioh thinks this Hyoh's deep sense of compassion burns his rage even more fiercely. He is sure that Hyoh shall also enter the dark world, and will fight Kenshiro. The North Star clan will perish, and will vanish from this world.

Elsewhere, Kenshiro is fully healed. Shachi tells Coyote not to worry, as Kenshiro is from the North Star clan, and the successor to the North Star divine fist. He's returned from the borders of death, and won't let Kaioh beat him that easily again. Kenshiro tells Shachi they'll be off, so Shachi tells Coyote to take care of himself. Coyote tells them to be careful.

Out in the wastelands, a massive train is on the move. Inside it is Gyoko, a large Asura who's on a diet of salad. He finds it tasty, and keeps having more. One of the Asuras under his command suggests he stop eating, but Gyoko refuses, saying there's no point dieting on an empty stomach. He needs to eat plenty to keep his strength up, that's the best way!

He has some scales brought over, and weights himself. The Asura tells him to rejoice -he's lost 0.0001 pounds since yesterday! Gyoko is overjoyed, and says that now he's so slim, he'll try one less belt notch. The Asura attempts to do it.

The Asura says he can't seem to do it due to his size. Gyoko takes offence at that remark and picks him up by his head. He asks him if he dared to just refer to suggest he was a pig. The Asura says he wouldn't dare do that, so Gyoko sticks the tip of a knife into his mouth.

Gyoko says he likes honest people, and asks him what he really thinks -he must have thought he was just a little bit of a pig. The Asura says he did, just a little bit. Gyoko screams at him -he's not a pig! He slices the Asura's face up, and punches him so hard...

...that he gets sent flying out of the train. Gyoko says he'll kill anyone who calls him a pig. Another Asura then comes over and says that given their current direction, does he plan on not going to Sayaka's funeral?

Gyoko says that's right. He believes that killing that Kenshiro guy would make Lord Kaioh happier. He thinks that if he does beat Kenshiro, he might even become a supreme leader. They're already heading towards Kenshiro, and they'll bring his head back with them!

Another Asura then runs over, and says that a village is in their way. Gyoko takes a look, and sees the village up ahead. He says they'll crush it.

He then gets stuck, but eventually pulls himself out, smashing up another part of the train in doing so. He screams for that village to be completely crushed. The villagers see something heading towards them, and start to flee.

The train starts to smash its way through the village. An elderly lady falls down and a kid tries to help her, but the train is then right behind them.

Gyoko then sees someone up ahead: Kenshiro! Kenshiro stands right in front of the train...

...and is able to stop it with just one hand. Gyoko falls down, and then gets up. He realizes the guy who stopped the train is Kenshiro. Back outside, the elderly lady is alright, and thanks Shachi.

Gyoko then smashes out of the train, but when he lands, the ground gives way. He tells his men to get out here, but they're a bit concerned at how much he's fallen into the ground. He tells them to shut up and go and kill Kenshiro.

Kenshiro tells Shachi to take care of the villagers. The Asuras charge, but Kenshiro starts hitting pressure points on them all.

Gyoko watches as everyone he'd sent out gets blown apart. He curses Kenshiro, and then rather than pull himself out, he starts to walk forward, ripping the ground up as he moves. Kenshiro watches in disbelief...

...as Gyoko eventually walks out of the ground he was stuck in. Gyoko thinks Kenshiro must be stupid, trying to take him on even after Lord Kaioh left him half dead. Kenshiro calls him a pig.

This really angers Gyoko, but before he can do anything, Kenshiro grabs him by the belt. He lifts Gyoko up, and says that until now, he's normally just swatted punks like him aside. But from now on, he'll personally taken down anyone who supports Kaioh. Gyoko thinks he's talking nonsense, and goes to crush Kenshiro's head.

Before he can, Kenshiro hits him multiple times, and then does a final punch that sends him crashing back into his train. Gyoko complains that his stomach hurts.

The remaining Asuras listen to Kenshiro, who tells them to tell Kaioh this: he'll never be defeated twice. He, of the North Star divine fist, will annihilate Kaioh, of the North Star lapis lazuli fist! Shachi says this is Kenshiro's challenge to the Land of Asura.

At the funeral, many villagers gather to watch Sayaka's cremation. They think that that Land of Asura will now grow even darker due to Sayaka's death. Kaioh tells everyone to not let the flames die. This is a farewell ceremony for his little sister, who was also the fiancee to the supreme leader, Hyoh. The flames are to burn for seven days and nights.

Hyoh sets fire to Sayaka's body, and thinks about what she'd once said to him: once this land was at peace, she wanted to cross the ocean, together with him.

Kaioh asks Hyoh to forgive him, and says that all of the people of this land will bid Sayaka farewell. Hyoh tells Kaioh he'll never forget his sense of justice, and passes over a pendant to him. He says that though Sayaka has perished, he wants to be able to call Kaioh his brother forever.

Kaioh calls out to God, and says thanks for allowing Sayaka to have a happy life, despite how short it was. Gyoko's train the smashes through a wall. Kaioh uses his dark lapis lazuli falling destruction technique...

...to stop the train. Gyoko stumbles out, complaining that his stomach hurts. Kaioh asks him what he thinks he's doing, as this is a parting ceremony for Sayaka. Gyoko says that Kenshiro has a message for Kaioh: he will never be defeated twice, or something like that.

Upon hearing this, Hyoh gets angry over that fact that Gyoko came all the way here just to say something so pathetic. Hyoh's face changes, and the villagers realize that Hyoh seems to have the same evil energy that Kaioh has.

Gyoko gets ripped apart by Hyoh's evil fighting spiritual energy. Kaioh is pleased that Hyoh has finally entered the dark world.

Hyoh uses his energy to move Gyoko's train out of his way. He says he asks for nothing now but Kenshiro's death, and storms out. Kaioh thinks that Hyoh is now in the dark world, a place where one can devour his own flesh and blood without shedding a tear. Hyoh is now an equal to Kenshiro.

He looks at the pendant Hyoh gave him, and throws it to the floor. He then stomps on it, and thinks that the only two things left in this world to befoul him are the North Star clan. Kenshiro and Hyoh will hate and fight each other. Both of them shall perish!
