Episode 6: Dragon VS, Female Dragon
(featuring Shadow assassins Striped Wolf & Spotted Wolf)
Dragon is out in the woods practicing,
break boards and bricks when he senses a presence and manages to dodge
a hand full of shuriken (throwing stars). A man appears, identifies
himself as "Striped Wolf" and claims he's not there on orders but just
wants to kill Dragon because he wants all other strong men dead. As if
he were a tokusatsu kaiju Striped Tiger names his attempt to pock
Dragon in the eyes "Blinding Attack". Dragon blocks his attack and the
man begs Dragon to kill him but Dragon tells him to go kill himself if
he wants to die so badly.
Striped Tiger is summoned before his boss,
who tells him to sit down then saying he did not order Dragon to be
killed and he doesn't need a Shadow member violating Shadow's Code (all
murders are to look like accidents or suicides) and flipping a switch
on his desk Black Jaguar, electrodes Striped Tiger to death. Ogawara,
Eizo receives a phone call, telling him to immediately stop providing
Dragon with financial assistance. The voice is shown to be coming from
a cassette tape recorder. As soon as Ogawara, Eizo hangs up the phone 4
other men dressed in black and calling themselves "Shadow's four
heavenly karate guards" appear in the room threatening to send him to
the netherworld. He tries to defend himself with a cane but they break
it and knock him out.
As the four thugs place their unconscious
victim in their car a woman in blue appears and asks what they intend
to do with that man. "Kill him, and before that we kill all witnesses".
They attack her but she defends herself with kicks and karate chops.
She steals there car and drives off, taking Ogawara, Eizo to Kurii 's
clinic. Kojiro appears announcing that someone has crashed their dojo
and is beating up the students. Dragon goes to confront this intruder
and meets "Hayase, Ryuko of the Kurma Hachiryu karate style", the young
woman who knocked down all his students.They spar, Dragon wins but
claims that if she had not had previous fights it would have been a
draw. She asks to join him in fighting Shadow, claiming Shadow killed
her father. Dragon is against putting a woman in such danger but Kojiro
talks him into accepting her assistance. Dragon sends Ogawara, Eizo
into hiding with Hayase, Ryuko (whom Kojiro calls Female Dragon) to
guard him.
Dragon in Ogawara, Eizo house receives a
phone call from Black Jaguar saying that if Dragon is taking Ogawara,
Eizo's place than the other is unneccsary and may die soon. Dragon
decides he better guard his friend himself but as he tries to leave
he's attacked by the four Shadow assassins who don't have a color in
their names,now claiming to be the Big Four Karate Masters. Koirjo
joins the fight but only serves a distraction not a real threat.
Meanwhile Shadow henchmen attack Ogawara, Eizo. As Female Dragon,
fights Ogawara tries to escape but more henchmen catch up with him..
Dragon appears. But Female Dragon has been captured and the henchmen
threaten to kiill her. Dragon laughs, because the four men he fought
had the same fighting style as her, meaning she is in fact their
leader. She admits it she is in fact Spotted Wolf, the daughter of
Stripped Wolf. Black Jaguar told her Dragon killed her father.and she
wants revenge. During the fight she she almost falls off the roof but
Dragon saves her and walks away with his friends. Later he receives a
letter informing him that she is running away from Shadow and giving
him one of Shadow's secret, the own an island near Hong Hong where they
