Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Determined to forge a new legend, the Liangshan Gang have taken their campaign against ‘CR Monster House’ nationwide. Having completed their preliminary research, they set out for a new town, but with the Liangshan Gang’s name now known across the country thanks to media coverage, every pachinko parlour had tightened its security against them. To make matters worse, in that town there was a rogue establishment with links to the police and organised crime… and the Gang were prevented from playing. However, Liangshanbo are not the sort to back down quietly. The enraged members used their own network to gather information on that parlour, quietly—yet fiercely—biding their time for the chance to crush their enemies!!
