in protest.

Well, I found all four

of them last night.

What's so funny?

Four?

Yes, and I've fought

stronger, but...

Try four thousand.

Four thousand ...

And that will only be

the beginning,

if they are not stopped.

Then you'd better find

a way to stop them.

It already found me.

What makes you

think I'd even try?

The man I once knew

sacrificed everything

for the sake of the innocent.

Then he was a fool.

But a noble one.

Four thousand.

How would I stop an army?

By raising your own.

I doubt the rest of the clan...

Would make it in time

to be of any help?

Then I guess you'll have

to find someone else.

Or, you will.

Others who won't bend to them.

Even if I wanted to, which

I don't, but even if I did,

I wouldn't know where to start.

The Oni will show you. Their

enemies are your allies.

I have obligations.

As pressing as the world?

Maybe I'll find

the others, priest

maybe, but

that's it, nothing more.

Ryu. Patience is one of

the heavenly virtues.

I know.

But, please, hurry.

Hang loose.

Anyone you don't know

comes out running they're

not even gonna make it

to the starting line.

Good man. Okay, by the numbers.

I'm telling you, I've got a

really bad feeling about this.

Take a pill already.

What do you want?

I've got a delivery.

What?

A book.

-You're armed.

-To the teeth.

You'll have to leave

your weapons...

Right where they are.

I'm not walking into your

place with that much money

on the line and no insurance

I'll walk out again.

There's something wrong here.

Of course there's

something wrong.

It's an opium den in a

crack house neighborhood.

Totally inappropriate.

You're not the courier.

No, but I've got the book.

Where is he?

Jail. Cops hired me

to take his place.

To sell a book?

To kill you.

Confident.

So much for by the numbers.

I like that. You must be good.

The best, and most expensive.

We don't negotiate.

Negotiate? What's there to

negotiate? You get the book,

I get the cash, and

the cops get to think

they're really clever

and everyone likes to

think they're clever...

It's a win, win, win,

situation.

All we got to do

it make the trade.

Max!

Be cool, Carmen.

Pleasure doing

business with you.

Believe me when I say

the pleasure is ours.

Whatever. Hope it's a good

read.

Oh, wait...

I almost forgot.

What?

My reputation.

You gotta be kidding.

Should worn your vest.

It slows me down.

You too?

If I'd wanted you dead

you never

would've known I was here.

Who the f*** are you?

My name is Ryu.

What the f*** do you want?

Your help.

Yeah, well I'm not feeling

too helpful right now.

Because your friends

tried to kill you?

Apparently they're not
