American Yakuza
Nick Davis is employed to push a forklift in a warehouse controlled by Japanese Yakuza patriarch Isshin Tendo after completing a year in solitary in jail. The place is attacked by the Italian Mafia, led by Dino Campanela, and Nick rescues and saves Shuji Sawamoto, the Yakuza's representative in America. Shuji hires Nick to work for the Yakuza and becomes his family's godfather after taking the oath to join the Yakuza. Nick, on the other hand, is a lone FBI undercover agent tasked to infiltrate the criminal organization. When the FBI learns that Campanela is planning a big attack to eliminate the Yakuza, Nick's employer Littman cancels the operation, leaving the dirty job to the Italian Mafia. Nick's ties to Shuji and his goddaughter Yuko, however, compel him to assist his Japanese relatives.
