Yoshi Hattori

Zatoichi runs across a childhood comrade who has grown up to be a cruel and powerful yakuza who mercilessly steals everything the peasants have. Fortunately, the super-perceptive Zatoichi soon takes care of him and his gang. (Sandra Brennan - Rotten Tomatoes)

In the third installment of this lady Zatoichi series, Oichi comes into possession of a MacGuffin scroll that contains details about a new type of foreign gunpowder. The local evil magistrate is convinced of the potential profit in selling the explosive technology, and spares no expense in trying to obtain the scroll.

Tough cop goes up against violent delinquent gang members.
