Kazunobu Haramoto is all about that thug life. He's rough, he's tumble, and now that he's joined the Yakuzu, he's all set to climb the ranks of the underworld. But you know what they say: all conditioned things are like dreams, shadows, and bubbles. And Kazunobu's bubble bursts like no other! A gang raid by a mysterious assassin leaves all his new yakuza comrades dead and dusted, and the fuzz catch him at the scene with the only other survivor, the boss's young daughter. Witness protection is his and the girl's best hope now—and for some reason, the cops have it in their heads that a strict and prestegious Zen Buddhist temple is the best place to hide! Kazunobu's got two options: death, or Nirvana!
