For the One Who Gave Their Love!
-From Rage Quitter 87's Fist of the North Star site

Bat finds out that a dangerous enemy has returned.

Kenshiro sees the seven scars on his chest and wonders what they are. Lin hears "seven scars", and she thinks she has heard that before. Meanwhile, Bat has seen that Ken can still use Hokuto Shinken, and knows that Lin will now be safe with him. He is about to leave when he sees Mamiya has appeared. She has found out that Ken has lost his memory, and asks Bat if this is really what he wants. Bat tells her that a man has to wish for his beloved to be happy, just as how Rei had told her the same thing all those years a go. He tells Mamiya he is going nowhere in particular and will stay with her for a while.



Bat and Mamiya see hundreds of crows over a small area. Mamiya says that the area is ran by the Zord gang, and they go and take a look to see if something has happened. When they arrive, they see that the Zord gang have all been horribly killed -each man has had his eyes removed via a single slice. More worryingly, on their chests, each many has seven wounds, like Kenshiro has! They find a survivor, who mentions one name: Bolge. Bolge is not that far away, having found Zord. He wants revenge for a wound Zord gave him twenty years a go -he never forgets people who hurt him. Whilst Bolge is blind, he has great hearing.



Zord uses a sword fighting style called Hakusou Myou Ken (White Claw Mystery Fist) but when his weapon hits Bolge's head, it does nothing but cut into artificial skin, revealing a armor plate beneath. Bolge kills Zord in the way he killed his troops, before demanding for Kenshiro to appear -Bolge only lives to have his revenge against him!



Bat tells Mamiya that Kenshiro was the one who took Bolge's eyes years a go. Even though he can still use Hokuto Shinken, Bat is afraid Kenshiro may not be able to defeat him. He says he has finally found a place to die, and starts to scar his own chest. He tells Mamiya that he will pretend to be Kenshiro, and will go and fight Bolge. Hopefully he can kill him, as then Kenshiro and Lin should be safe forever. Bat says that he is doing this for Ken -if he had never have met him, he would have died a long time a go as just a petty thief. And he is also doing it for Lin, the one who gave him the light of love.
