This video contains major spoilers up to volume 31 of the original manga, so please be careful when watching! The setting is the noble northern land of Hokkaido. The era is the turbulent end of the Meiji era. Sugimoto Saichi, a hero of the Russo-Japanese War, was nicknamed "Invincible Sugimoto" for his demonic fighting style, including at Hill 203, the most brutal battlefield of the Russo-Japanese War. In order to obtain a large sum of money for a certain purpose, he spends his days panning for gold in Hokkaido. There, Sugimoto learns of the existence of a huge amount of gold nuggets stolen from the Ainu people. The man who stole the gold, "Nopperabo", hid the nuggets in a certain place just before being captured, and tattooed the location of the nuggets on the bodies of 24 prisoners, helping them escape from prison. It is said that the tattoos of all 24 prisoners form a single code. At that time, Sugimoto is attacked by a wild brown bear, and an Ainu girl saves him. A girl named Asirpa's father was killed by a man who stole a gold nugget. Sugimoto, who is pursuing the nugget, and Asirpa, who wants to avenge her father, end up working together.

He joins up with his former ally Nagakura Shinpachi and is pursuing the gold nugget to realize his own ambitions. Sugimoto and Asirpa vs. Lieutenant Tsurumi's 7th Division vs. Hijikata Toshizo! A battle for gold set in the northern lands! Who will be the last one to survive? Who will get the gold?
