A mix-and-mash of multiple movies popular at its time, made during the peak of Jimmy's career as an action star, it is the first of a short series of movies Jimmy made while in Japan nearing the mid-70s.Chin-fu (Jimmy) is a mysterious wanderer in Yakuza-controlled Kyoto, who is picking fights in nightclubs owned by the mob and making a ruckus everywhere he goes, resulting in the Yakuza placing a bounty on his head. As it turns out, Chin-fu is the son of a Hong Kong police inspector killed in duty while investigating the Yakuza, and Chin-fu is seeking revenge. With the help of a nightclub singer named Ayako (who also have her own reasons to oppose the Yakuza), Chin-fu will rip the Yakuza a new hole.

Cable-Car Action Sequence: One of the film's key action setpieces has Chin-fu fighting a pair of Yakuza assassins in a cable car's gondola, whose doors are opened. It ends with Chin-fu and one of the assassins Hanging by the Fingers outside the gondola while the second mook tries a Hand Stomp on Chin-fu, but Chin-fu managed to get back in after forcing the first assassin to fall into the bay above the gondola before climbing back to finish off the second.
