As the years have passed, peace has come to the wasteland. But it is an unjust peace, one kept in place by the brutality of a powerful empire. Rin and Bat, having finally reunited with Kenshiro, are now freedom fighters. Along with a bounty hunter named Ein, the group faces new enemies--Falco the Golden Wolf and the cruel warlord Jako, who serve the mysterious Tentei. Falco and Jako may have whole armies at their beck and call, but they've never come up against the likes of Kenshiro and Hokuto Shinken before...
