Asamura Kitaro (Ozawa Kazuyoshi), a young assistant head of the Toyukai, is known in Kabukicho as the one-eyed Kitaro, and is feared as a mad dog that will not stop once he loses his temper. Asamura is strong in fighting but not in making money, and together with his brother Matsuo, he forcibly takes on the business of the rival Nishinaga clan. The Nishinaga clan tries to take Asamura's sister, Yuna, a singer, hostage, but Asamura retaliates against them and kills many members of the clan. When Asamura is arrested for murder, his timing is so good that he begins to suspect a connection between the police and Nishinaga-gumi.

The Third and final 'Strong Man' film.

With the death of Nobuhide Oriki (Tokuma Nishioka), a brutal succession battle erupts within the Oriki-gumi. By vote, Nobunaga (Hitoshi Ozawa) becomes second-generation boss, forcing his brother Nobuyuki into rebellion. In the bloody aftermath, Nobunaga kills both Nobuyuki and his relative Nobuyasu Iwasaki (Hitomi Matsuda). Tragedy deepens as his right-hand man Masahide Hirako (Jiro Okazaki) takes his own life, and his father-in-law Michizo Saimon (Shinzo Hotta) is assassinated in a coup. Now as boss, Nobunaga sets the underworld in motion once more: Ujiyasu Nanjo (Sansho Fukami) rises in Kanto, Motonari Mōriya (Shinichi Chiba) expands in Aki, and in Nagano the fated clash of Kenshin Uemura (Ryuji Harada) and Shingen Takebe (Shun Sugata) begins. But the greatest threat comes from Yoshimoto Imanishi (Naoya Makoto), leading the invasion of Owari. The “war of the elephant and the ant” is about to reach its endgame.

The fall of Yoshimoto Imanishi spreads Nobunaga Oriki’s (Hitoshi Ozawa) reputation across Japan. In Omi, he forges a brotherhood oath with Nagamasa Asakawa (Daisuke Nagakura), further extending the Oriki-gumi’s influence. Alarmed, National Police Agency Director Ichijo (Masahiko Tsugawa) orders their destruction. Meanwhile, Ieyasu Tokusawa (Yasukaze Motomiya) abandons the Imanishi-gumi, declaring independence as the Tokusawa-gumi. Upon learning this, Nobunaga extends his hand, joining forces with Tokusawa in pursuit of nationwide unification. Elsewhere, Yoshiaki Ashitaga (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), ousted from the Murohachi Alliance, seeks to rebuild it, turning to Shingen Takebe (Shun Sugata) for aid—but is coldly passed around. And from Fukui, Mitsuhide Akashi (Mikio osawa) of the Amakura-gumi moves the pieces of the board, pulling the Oriki-gumi into the next great upheaval.

Sakamoto Toshiya (Kawahara Hideyuki), a young assistant head of the Yamashinkai, is imprisoned himself after his partner is killed in a feud with the Takahara family. When Sakamoto was released from prison eight years later and returned to the Yamashinkai, the organization was already under the control of the Takahara family and was involved in the sale of shabu, which was a taboo practice. Sakamoto tries to rebuild the organization with Yamahashi and his subordinate, Asada, but the Takahara family spots him and the chairman, Hirano, excommunicates him.

Tatsumi, the third head of the Togo clan, recalls Wanibuchi Ichizo (Motomiya Yasukaze), the young head of the Makikawa clan, who was known as the "bare handed" Emperor. Wanibuchi attracted many young people with his overwhelming charisma and the strength of his fighting skills. Mr. Makikawa wanted to give such young people a cup and expand his power. One day, however, Wanibuchi defeats the members of the Yamato clan, Japan's largest organization, with his bare knuckles, and the Makigawa clan is in danger of survival.

The Naito Shinjuku Family, a hereditary organization where only those of the Washio bloodline can inherit leadership. Under a calculated scheme, Wakagashira Yuki Kanemaru eliminates the 12th-generation leader, Gunji Washio (Hitoshi Ozawa), in a bid to fulfill his fateful mission of establishing Washio Kiyoharu (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), Gunji’s long-buried sworn brother, as the rightful 12th leader. In a shocking turn, Kanemaru engulfs the Naito Shinjuku Family in flames and meets his end through self-immolation. As Shateigashira Hosa (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) pushes to restore order by advocating for Taiga Washio (Haruto Ochiai) as the 13th leader, the situation spirals further out of control with the release of Shuyu Ohgami (Norimasa Tomie), a former Naito Shinjuku Family member, from prison...!

In order to fulfill the fate and great cause of placing his sworn brother, Kiyoharu Washio (Kazuyoshi Ozawa), who had been buried in the darkness until now, as the 12th generation leader of the Naito Shinjuku family, Yuki Kanemaru (Masaya Kato) covered the office with flames and ultimately met his end in self-immolation. Just as he passes away, former 12th generation underling, Hideyoshi Ogami (Norimasa Fujie), is released after serving a long prison sentence. This leads the Naito Shinjuku family into a three-way struggle: Toki Reiji (Yoshiyuki Yamaguchi) and his faction who support Taiga Washio (Haruto Ochiai) as the 13th generation, the faction led by Akira Shiba (Kunihiko Ida) who seeks to put Seiharu in power and rewrite history, and Ogami’s faction. Finally, the president of the Osaka Namba-kai, Masami Yukimura (Takashi Ukaji), reveals himself, and the story is about to connect to a new bloodline!
