Synopsis
A man known as Koryu is sitting in meditation, and knows that another star of the South Star has fallen. But now, the North Star has begun to rise. Another man appears called Zengyo. Koryu tells his servant that Raoh has begun to move again, and he needs him to track his movements. Raoh is currently seeing to the wound he got whilst fighting Kenshiro, but maintains that he will return as the Fist King soon. Elsewhere, Toki cures an ill child.
Moving outside, Toki tells Kenshiro that after seeing him battle Souther, he has decided he also wants to fight. Zengyo returns to his master and has found out that Raoh is heading this way. Koryu explains that he fought Ryuken over who would become the successor to the North Star divine fist, but they were in danger of killing each other.
Not wanting that, Koryu allowed Ryuken to become the successor, whilst he exiled himself to these mountains. But now the danger of Raoh's ambition has come, he has decided to fight once more. He tells Zengyo that he will kill Raoh, and stop him from carrying out his plan. Raoh arrives at the mountains, and seeks to confront Koryu. Meanwhile Toki has decided that he will end his brother's quest and seal away his fists -there can only be one true successor to the North Star divine fist, and the title does not belong to Raoh!
-This episode is filler, and was not in the manga.
