The Two Headed Dragon 2 - Plot
Takeda (Mikio Osawa) and Tsurumi (Junichi Kawamoto)—who killed their own boss and Wakagashira and rampaged through rival turf—are taken into the Doryukai of the Kurohime family by Ryutaro Dojima (Yasukaze Motomiya). Meanwhile, Chifumi Iwaguma (Hidekazu Akai) of the Udagawa-gumi arrives from Osaka to meet Hozumi (Seiki Nagahara), and an oath of brotherhood is approved at an executive meeting—without Dojima's consent. To stop Hozumi's power play, Takeda and Tsurumi are ordered to assassinate him. Acting on his own impulses, Takeda ignores the plan and storms the ceremony alone, igniting a brutal internal war within the Kurohime family. All stake their lives and ambitions on rising through the underworld—who will have the last laugh: Hozumi, Dojima, Iwaguma… or Takeda?
