The final installment of this Mas Oyama trilogy features Sonny Chiba getting involved with a shady pro wrestling promoter and his gangster buddies in Okinawa. No one bothers to tell him the matches are staged, with predictably disastrous results. Chiba eventually kills Masashi Ishibashi (again), and fights the final baddie in a hall of mirrors ripped straight out of Enter the Dragon. Not bad, but it wastes a ton of time on a sappy subplot about a girl with tuberculosis and a bunch of orphans.
