Plot
Hibaru Yotsurugi, the only biological son of Kongo Yotsurugi, leader of Asakusa's Yotsurugi-gumi clan, was nominated as the next leader of the former Yakuza group upon Kongo's death. However, after considering the changes in the values of the clan, he declines and appoints his friend, the 12th adopted son, Terasu Yotsurugi, as the next head, to the chagrin of the remaining adopted sons. Shortly thereafter, a meteor shower over Japan awakens a mysterious power called "Astro" in many people, including Hibaru, who develops the ability to have the world's strongest fist, and a war involving the clan begins.
