Tetsuya and Boshu maintain their reputation as the top team in Shinjuku. They challenge a pair who claim to be the best in Asia after returning from China, the homeland of mahjong. Having played for their lives against Chinese professionals, the newcomers possess exceptional skills. They utilize these abilities to bombard Tetsuya with yakumans throughout the match. Meanwhile, Boshu fails to support his partner. Instead of assisting, he completely ignores Tetsuya during the entire game, leaving his teammate to face the opponents' powerful attacks alone.
