In the early twentieth century, Russo-Japanese War veteran Saichi Sugimoto embarks on a perilous journey through the rugged wilderness of Hokkaido in search of a hoard of hidden gold. Armed with a cryptic map and the assistance of a native Ainu girl, Saichi must navigate through a treacherous landscape teeming with murderous cutthroats, bandits, and rogues who are aware of the treasure's existence. As he delves deeper into his quest, Toshizo Hijikata, another treasure hunter, becomes increasingly drawn to the truth about his father's past. Meanwhile, Sugimoto and Asirpa arrive in the town of Yubari, unaware that their nemesis, Lieutenant Tsurumi, is also present with his men. Tsurumi has enlisted the services of the psychotic taxidermist Yasaku Edogai as a deceitful tactic to mislead the other treasure hunters. Furthermore, the rogue sniper, Ogata, enters the fray, adding even more chaos and intrigue to the unfolding saga. With danger lurking around every corner and the stakes higher than ever before, Saichi and Toshizo must navigate through a web of lies, deceit, and treachery to uncover the truth about the hidden Ainu gold and claim their rightful place in history.
