During World War II, the Japanese buried a stash of gold in the Philippines, marking its location on two samurai swords. In the 1970s, the Golden Cobra Gang seeks the missing sword, and Gustavo, a high-ranking member, sends Kang the Butcher and Turko to retrieve it. However, Gustavo's plan backfires when he kills Lao Tsu's sister, prompting Tsu, a peaceful martial arts instructor, to seek revenge in Manila. American Paul Martelli becomes entangled in the conflict as he was involved with Tsu's sister.
