Baki Hanma's victory in the underground tournament hasn't come without attention - Tokugawa Mitsunari, the tournament organizer, arrives at Baki's school to warn him about five highly skilled and deadly death row inmates who have escaped confinement in various parts of the world. These inmates, who are all experts in martial arts, are now heading to Tokyo, seeking a challenge. Baki is likely to cross paths with them due to his reputation for strength, and he won't be their only target. This confrontation sets the stage for an all-out war between Japan's top martial artists and the underground world's elite.
