Kiryu asks Daigo to rejoin the Tojo Clan, but Daigo sees the Clan as a lost cause that he has had no stake in since his father was killed and he was sent to prison. A number of Daigo's followers try to drive Kiryu off, but Daigo dismisses them after Kiryu beats them senseless in a nearby alley. Eventually, a grateful hostess takes Kiryu to Club Shine, where Daigo and his men are partying. In Kamurocho, Kiryu searches for Daigo among the various clubs and bars around town, beating up a number of his lackeys that cause trouble for the locals. Still, she won't stop Kiryu, and Kiryu heads to Kamurocho to find Daigo. Yayoi is dismissive of this: Daigo has changed since Kiryu last met him, and after a failed push into Kansai and prison time has given himself to drink and debauchery in Kamurocho. Kiryu has one last request before he leaves: he wants to speak with Yayoi and Sohei's son, Daigo Dojima, to try and convince him to step up and take control of the Tojo Clan. Yayoi agrees to allow Kiryu to go, warning him that failure will probably mean his death at the hands of the Omi and all out war between the Alliance and the Tojo Clan. Kiryu admits that, as Nishiki's blood brother, any debts he accrued over the course of his life now fall on Kiryu. Acting Chairwoman Yayoi Dojima, Sohei Dojima's widow, asks if Kiryu's insistence on carrying out Terada's final request and going to Kansai is his way of trying to atone for Akira Nishikiyama's murder of her husband. While Haruka goes back to Sunflower Orphanage for her own safety, Kiryu takes the letter to Tojo Clan headquarters. Kiryu and Haruka call an ambulance for Terada, but the Chairman dies before he can get to the hospital before he expires, Terada gives Kiryu a letter with instructions to bring it to Goda, lamenting that the two of them are cut from different cloth and perhaps his death is for the best. Kiryu fights off the assassins, but one shoots Terada as the Chairman steps in to shield Kiryu from an attack and escapes. Terada begs Kiryu for assistance, but before Kiryu can give an answer Terada is shot by assassins sent by the Omi. Kiryu is dismissive of the idea as Goda holds all the leverage, and he refuses to get any more involved now that he's retired. Just then, Terada arrives to speak with Kiryu: to avert a war that the Tojo Clan will lose (as they're still reeling from the civil war the previous year), he plans to swear an oath with Chairman Jin Goda of the Omi Alliance. The two are going to visit the graves of Haruka's mother, Yumi, and Kiryu's father figure, Kazama, where Kiryu promises that now that he's free of the yakuza, he'll bring Haruka up right. Meanwhile, Kiryu awakens from a nightmare about the events of Yakuza 1, and is greeted by Haruka Sawamura carrying a bouquet of flowers. Several levels below him, a man speaks with a compatriot about a coming attack on Kamurocho, whispering that the time for their vengeance is nigh. After his subordinate leaves, Kashiwagi asks himself what Kazuma Kiryu would do in this situation. Worse, there is news that the Omi Alliance (based in Kansai) is looking to push into Kamurocho now that one of their number, Yukio Terada, is Fifth Chairman of the Tojo Clan. Osamu Kashiwagi (now Patriarch of the Kazama Family, based out of the Millennium Tower) is informed of the incident but takes no immediate action, as he fears the wrong move could spark another gang war. Tensions are rising in Kamurocho foreign gangsters have begun moving in and harassing the locals, shown when Yuya (the bouncer at Club Stardust) beats down a gang of Chinese that had come to extort money from the club. Kawara intervenes and insists he's there to help, eventually getting the woman to give up her son. Kawara tries to get the woman to give the boy to him, but she refuses and prepares to jump from the window to spare him from dying in the fire or at the hands of Kawara. Kawara hurries up the stairs to find the building ablaze, and after searching several rooms he finds a woman with an infant boy. Kawara rushes to the dying man, who begs him to find his child before he dies. There, he hears a fire alarm going off and witnesses a man, a Korean, being gunned down by Shintaro Kazama. Officer Jiro Kawara sneaks through a disco to get to a nearby building, drawing his gun and stepping inside.
