The all-important "path of the kai" forgotten, Yoshiro insists on rescuing the psychic Miharu, who has been kidnapped by the combined forces of Symbol and the U.S. military.

Meanwhile, the powerful Gowa family and Yoshiro's SSDF unit have joined the cabal organized by the jingoistic Nishida, who hopes to return Japan to an idealized past.
