Ron Tayan now leads the 108 Dragons; Fu Ching Ran is his loyal wife. As their body tattoos show, he's the dragon, she's the tiger. The 108 Dragons are attacked by African Tusk, a syndicate intent on world control. Ron goes to Africa, dealing first with Shicaro, African Tusk's assassin, then with Jagone, its leader. Despite his success, he must still face Bugnug, Jagone's muscular and athletic military commander: Ron gives her a new name, Dark Eyes. Back in Hong Kong, Fu faces danger as well. A Muramasa sword with a dark history and, seemingly, its own demon spirit, falls into her hands. She seeks to tame it, and in the process, discovers her inner warrior identity.
Durante o voo para o Japão, o avião de Freeman e Bai Ya Shan é sequestrado por agentes Askari, mas eles conseguem matar os sequestradores após o pouso. Ambos seguem um sobrevivente ferido com um dispositivo de rastreamento, e chegam à base de Shikebaro e retornam para planejar uma estratégia.
