[00:33] (Flashback) FEIYAN
    For Erika's sake...
[00:35] (Flashback) FEIYAN
    I'd even become a demon.

    Someone stronger than me?
[00:47] (Flashback) FEIYAN
    Kenshiro.

[02:47] YE
    Huh...
[02:49] YE
    You make a decent priest.
[02:52] CHILD
    You're an impostor, though.
[02:54] CHILD
    Ow!
[02:59] YE
    From now on, you'll live in this
    church as a priest. Got that?
[03:06] YE
    Erika is your child.
[03:08] FEIYAN
    What? But...
[03:11] CHILD
    From now on, you have to
    call Fei-Yan-san "Daddy."
[03:21] ERIKA
    Daddy!
[03:26] KEN
    Go on.
[03:27] KEN
    Answer her.
[03:29] FEIYAN
    Yeah...
[03:32] CHILD
    Hey, Mr. Daddy!
[03:34] YE
    Don't tease him!
[03:34] CHID
    Ow!
[03:44] YE
    Hey...
[03:44] CHILD
    What's wrong?
[04:00] CHILD
    It fell from up there.
[04:13] ERIKA
    Poor thing...
[04:16] FEIYAN
    Let me see.
[04:26] FEIYAN
    It's all right. He's not hurt.
[04:28] ERIKA
    Oh, good!
[04:30] FEIYAN
    Hold on.
[04:32] FEIYAN
    I'll put him back right now.
[04:35] ERIKA
    Okay.
[04:44] FEIYAN
    There you go.
[05:02] YE
    Now the two of them can finally relax.
[05:06] YE
    But do you suppose the rumor
    that a war's starting is true?
[05:11] YE
    I'm worried about that.
[05:26] CHILD
    Hey.
[05:28] CHILD
    How are you going to find the
    guy who killed Guise-san?
[05:39] CHILD
    What is this place?
[05:45] KEN
    It's where Guise was killed.
[05:47] CHILD
    What?
[05:51] KEN
    I knew it.
[05:53] CHILD
    What is it?
[05:55] KEN
    It smells like the desert on the Silk Road.
[05:57] CHILD
    Desert? Where?
[06:00] CHILD
    Where's a desert?
[06:04] FEIYAN
    Hey, you guys are here, too?
[06:08] CHILD
    Fei-Yan-san, are you here
    to look for clues, too?
[06:11] FEIYAN
    Yeah. The man who killed Guise
    may have been a German assassin.
[06:16] CHILD
    Oh...
[06:17] KEN
    That might not be all.
[06:20] FEIYAN
    What do you mean?
[06:22] YE
    Ken-san!
[06:29] YE
    I finally found you.
[06:32] CHILD
    What's the big hurry?
[06:35] YE
    I got some information on the martial
    artist the government hired.
[06:39] CHILD
    What?
[06:41] YE
    Apparently he uses something called
    the West Dipper Lunar Fist.
[06:45] FEIYAN
    West Dipper?
[06:47] KEN
    I knew it.
[06:50] FEIYAN
    You know what it is?
[06:53] KEN
    That's the man who killed Guise.
[06:57] KEN
    Fei-Yan, come with me.
[07:04] YE
    Ken-san...
[07:12] KEN
    He's awakened from a 2000-year-long slumber.
[07:17] KEN
    Like me,
[07:20] KEN
    he's a Death God.
[07:22] FEIYAN
    The West Dipper Lunar Fist user?
[07:24] YE
    A D-Death God?
[07:27] CHILD
    Is that connected to the smell
    of the Silk Road or whatever?
[07:32] KEN
    Yeah.
[07:33] KEN
    The West Dipper Lunar Fist...
[07:36] KEN
    The wolf blood that lurks in the Divine Fist of
    the North Star was inherited from that style.
[07:50] KEN
    Long ago, I traveled along the
    Silk Road, following the wind.
[08:01] KEN
    I eventually arrived at a ruined temple.
[08:19] (Flashback) KEN
    This smell brings back memories.
[09:03] (Flashback) KEN
    These are Divine Fist of
    the North Star forms...
[09:14] (Flashback) KEN
    Whoops!
[09:16] (Flashback) KEN
    That was close.
[09:20] (Flashback) KEN
    Whoa...
[09:27] (Flashback) KEN
    Good grief.
[10:08] (Flashback) KEN
    Shoo.
[10:10] (Flashback) KEN
    I'm not interested in playing with you here.
[10:16] (Flashback) KEN
    Hey, I don't want to fight a wolf.
[10:22] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Welcome, successor to the
    Divine Fist of the North Star.
[10:30] (Flashback) KEN
    It spoke...
[10:32] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    This place is the tomb of the
    Yuezhi who once ruled this land.
[10:39] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    I have been waiting here for
    many thousands of years.
[10:45] (Flashback) KEN
    Yuezhi? Who are you?
[10:51] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    I am the embodiment of the
    West Dipper Lunar Fist's hatred.
[10:58] (Flashback) KEN
    The West Dipper Lunar Fist...
[11:01] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    In order to create the Divine Fist of
    the North Star, the style was betrayed...
[11:06] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    and erased.
[11:09] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    And the day I take revenge for that betrayal
    with these fangs has finally arrived!
[11:14] (Flashback) KEN
    What? The Divine Fist of the North Star was
    created from the North Star house's style.
[11:19] (Flashback) KEN
    The West Dipper had nothing to do with it.
[11:21] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    The North Star house's
    style emphasized defense.
[11:26] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    It was not suitable for assassination.
[11:29] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    So it began associating with
    the West Dipper Lunar Fist,
[11:33] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    which was passed down from master to student,
[11:36] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    and so the ultimate assassin's art was born:
[11:39] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    the Divine Fist of the North Star.
[11:47] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    A young man of the North Star
    house became our disciple
[11:53] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    and stole all our secrets.
[11:57] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Later, he killed the successor
    to the West Dipper Lunar Fist
[12:04] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    and all his disciples!
[12:08] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    That man was the founder of the
    Divine Fist of the North Star:
[12:15] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Shuken!
[12:23] FEIYAN
    I see.
[12:25] FEIYAN
    So the origin of the Divine Fist of the
    North Star was the West Dipper Lunar Fist.
[12:29] YE
    But why did this Shuken dude
    kill all the West Dipper guys?
[12:36] YE
    Didn't they teach him
    their ultimate technique?
[12:39] KEN
    Shuken was under specific orders
    from the North Star house.
[12:47] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    To prevent the West Dipper Lunar
    Fist from being passed on to others,
[12:52] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    he sealed away our technique.
[12:58] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    He even killed Yahma,
    the female disciple he loved.
[13:08] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    The Divine Fist of the North Star came
    to be known as the protector of heroes.
[13:25] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    That was the beginning of the bloody
    destiny of the West Dipper and North Star!
[13:36] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Prepare yourself,
[13:38] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    successor to the Divine
    Fist of the North Star!
[13:44] (Flashback) KEN
    You got a problem with the North Star?
[13:49] (Flashback) KEN
    If you wanna complain...
[13:52] (Flashback) KEN
    complain to me!
[14:21] (Flashback) KEN
    I can hear it.
[14:23] (Flashback) KEN
    Shuken's voice.
[14:26] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    His voice?
[14:29] (Flashback) KEN
    He cursed his destiny that compelled
    him to kill the one he loved
[14:35] (Flashback) KEN
    and spent his life begging
    the heavens for forgiveness.
[14:40] (Flashback) KEN
    I hear his agonized cries...
[14:44] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Impressive.
[14:47] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Even after thousands of years,
[14:49] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    that sorrowful memory still
    resides in your blood...
[14:57] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    Then we are just the same.
[15:02] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    The memory of this grudge
    can never be erased!
[15:13] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    My fangs failed to defeat you.
[15:18] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    But I promise you this:
[15:21] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    the one who carries on this bloodline
[15:24] (Flashback) WHITE WOLF
    will appear before the Divine
    Fist of the North Star...
[16:03] KEN
    The man who attacked Guise
    smelled like that wolf.
[16:09] YE
    Which means his real goal is
    revenge on the Divine Fist.
[16:17] CHILD
    Still, a talking wolf?
    Sounds like some crazy dream.
[16:22] YE
    No, I believe it.
[16:25] CHILD
    You're too old to be talking like a kid.
[16:29] YE
    How dare you call your father an old man?!
[16:33] CHILD
    Ow!
[16:36] YE
    Fei-Yan-san, you should be careful.
[16:39] YE
    You're affiliated with the North Star.
[16:41] FEIYAN
    I know.
[16:50] CHILD
    Dad, look at that!
[16:52] YE
    What is it?
[16:52] CHILD
    You're wide open!
[16:54] YE
    Ow!
[16:55] YE
    You brat! Hold it!
[16:57] CHILD
    Catch me if you can!
[17:26] FEIYAN
    We won't be able to avoid a fight against
    the West Dipper Lunar Fist user.
[17:32] KEN
    It's the destiny of the
    North Star. My destiny.
[17:36] FEIYAN
    Destiny, huh? That's a heavy burden.
[17:43] FEIYAN
    There's no reason to carry it alone.
[17:45] FEIYAN
    I'll help you carry it.
[17:48] FEIYAN
    After all, we're...
[17:51] FEIYAN
    pengyou, aren't we?
[17:58] FEIYAN
    After that, we can create the safe haven
[18:03] FEIYAN
    Guise dreamed of for
    Erika and these children.
[18:08] KEN
    Yeah.
[18:53] FEIYAN
    You okay?
[18:56] ORPHAN 3
    F-Food...
[19:01] FEIYAN
    Eat this.
[19:02] FEIYAN
    I just bought it for my daughter.
[19:04] ORPHAN 3
    Thank you.
