Bingo (Tsumabuki Satoshi) has stolen away the girlfriend (Fukatsu Eri) of his crime syndicate boss (Nishida Toshiyuki), and now he faces an ultimatum: find him a legendary assassin named Della Togashi, or die. But time is running out and Della's whereabouts remain moot. As a desperate measure, Bingo decides to hire a failing actor, Taiki Murata (Sato Koichi) to play the part of the elusive assassin. Believing he'll be starring in an epic gangster film in the role of his life, Taiki comes to the port town of Sucago, where the film is to be shot. In his attempt to convince his boss that he has found Della Togashi, Bingo inadvertently winds up indenturing Taiki into the service of the town's crime syndicate just as it prepares for a major gang war.
