The Holy Cross mausoleum begins to fall apart. As it does, Kenshiro takes one last look at Souther, who is still with Ogai, and then continues to walk down the steps of the pyramid.

Raoh: Another enemy in my life is gone.

Toki: Raoh, where are you going?

Raoh: To heaven, once again... I shall fight with you sooner or later. Until I defeat my two enemies, you and Kenshiro, heaven is beyond my grasp. We'll meet again...

Souther, the South Star of the Emperor, has fallen. The time is moving to a new era, and the stars of destiny continue to shine brightly.

The Strongest Era of the North Star!
The Fate of the 3 Brothers is Finally Moving!!

A man called Koryu sits under a tree. He thinks that another star has been swallowed up by this chaotic world, and now the great North Star is on the move. A ninja called Zengyo then appears, and Koryu tells him that Raoh is on the movie. He tells Zengyo to find out what Raoh is up to. As Zengyo vanishes, Koryu says that as the South Star fades, the North Star appears. He believes that the North Star is destined to stir chaos once again.

Elsewhere, Raoh is healing the wound he received from fighting with Kenshiro. He recalls how it happened...

During the bloody battle in Mamiya's village, Raoh and Kenshiro battered each other, striking each other's pressure points. Whilst Raoh injured Kenshiro, Kenshiro did as much damage to Raoh. The battle ended in a stalemate.

Back in the present, Raoh thinks his wounds still haven't completely healed. He crushes a rock, and thinks that the Fist King will still rise again, no matter what. The one to rule these chaotic times will be him!

At another village, a sick child called Yuri awaits help. Toki then arrives, and gets to work.

Kenshiro thinks of Toki, his generous brother. The sharpness of Toki's technique, flow and speed are all flawless. It was originally meant to be that Toki would become the successor to the North Star divine fist. But it was the nuclear war that altered Toki's fate...

As the missiles started to explode, Toki, Kenshiro and Yuria made their way to a shelter. But once they got there, the door jammed. Toki made the decision to save Kenshiro and Yuria, and sacrifice himself. He pushes them into the shelter, and then closed the door.

Toki was covered in fallout. Some time later, Kenshiro opened the doors back up, and found that Toki had survived.

Back in the present, Kenshiro thinks that Toki had been exposed to the fallout, and he ended up giving up his art. Instead, he went on to pursue medicine. Toki then strikes a pressure point on Yuri's back, healing her.

Kenshiro's group go outside, and take a look at the ruins of a city. Toki tells Kenshiro that his dream was to practice medicine...

Before the war, Toki told Kenshiro that he had a dream. In this world, there are thousands who suffer from diseases that modern medicine cannot cure. Striking a pressure point can destroy the body from within. But pushing a pressure point softly can stimulate the body's healing. Toki wanted to use that power to help people.

Back in the present, Toki says that being exposed to the fallout, and not knowing how long he had to live, changed things. He lost his hopes and dreams, and ended up wandering the wasteland. It was then when he reached the Village of Miracles...

It was there where he found hope. The village was full of ill people, who were simply waiting in despair for death to come and claim them. Toki decided to devote the rest of his life to save them, which he started doing. But that village was then ransacked by that man...

Back in the present, Toki says it was the Fist King's underling, Amiba. Amiba had taken Toki's name, and turned the village back into one of death. Toki then allowed himself to be captured, and waited for Kenshiro to come to him as he spied on the Fist King. Toki was taken to Cassandra prison, the city where the devils cry. When two guards tried to kill Toki, he used the technique known as the North Star human breaking fist.

This technique killed the guards, and Toki was finally reunited with Kenshiro.

Back in the present, Toki says that he meant to spend the rest of his life among the ill and the children. But... after watching Kenshiro fight, he has now changed his mind. His blood is boiling, hot and fiercely. At one time he also dreamt of mastering the martial arts, and that instinct is moving him.

Elsewhere, a small gang of four bandits have attacked and wrecked a truck, which was carrying a lot of food. They quickly start taking the food, but they then notice someone on a hose heading their way. They think they should get this guy.

However they don't quite realize how big this guy is until he's right up next to them. They don't realize that they're confronting the Fist King, but they tell him that he's got guts to cross the desert by himself. They want him to hand over any food he has, or if he hasn't got any, they want his horse -the horse would make a great meal.

Raoh calls them fools, and blasts them back with a burst of his fighting spiritual energy. He refers to them as maggots, and then leaves, sparing their lives.

This has all been seen by Zengyo, who goes back to report to Koryu. He tells Koryu that Raoh is heading this way, and that Raoh's eyes gleam sharply -he radiates with fighting spirit. Koryu thinks that Raoh must still have not abandoned his ambition...

Ryuken once asked Raoh what he would use the North Star divine fist for. Raoh says it's obvious: he'll use it for himself! Ryuken then asks what is it that Raoh seeks? Raoh points upwards, and says he wants the heavens -he will seize everything for himself, even if it means he has to fight God!

Back in the present, Koryu says that he once fought with Ryuken, in a battle for the title of successor.

Ryuken and Koryu's fight has them evenly matched. They trade countless attacks, but neither of them can get an advantage over the other.

They realize they are in danger of killing each other. Koryu thinks that even with a mutual defeat, they are still brothers and fellow students... why must they fight so brutally? Back in the present, Koryu says that he surrendered the right of succession to Ryuken. And in accordance with the North Star code, he gave up his own art.

He thinks he understands Raoh's vexation better than anyone. So therefore, he must seal Raoh's fists away, as that is the fate of one who once sought to become the successor. Nearby, Raoh approaches some mountains. He says there must be proof that the Fist King has been revived, and then continues on his way.

Meanwhile, Toki says that among the six South Stars, five have already fallen: Shin, Rei, Yuda, Shu and Souther. He thinks Kenshiro will probably have to fight the remaining star some day, as that's the fate of the North Star divine fist's successor. It's a fate that will call to Kenshiro. Kenshiro asks Toki what he's going to do. Toki says he shall follow his own fate. The North Star divine fist only has one successor, so Raoh's fists must be sealed. The enemy of his life... his name is Raoh!
