Story
After the boss of their gang, Daigo Kazama, suddenly goes missing, both Gan and Edge are approached by someone claiming to their boss's younger brother. The pair are initially skeptical of the stranger, who goes by Akira, but eventually, the trio set off in pursuit of the boss. During their search, the truth eventually comes out that the stranger is actually their boss's younger sister who they welcome with open arms anyway after sensing their boss's fighting spirit within her. Gan's ending has him attempting to dedicate himself to his studies at Akira's suggestion and much to Edge's amusement. After becoming frustrated he tears up the textbook and is chastised by Akira.
After some time away to train, Daigo returns to Gedo High and commands Gan and Edge to immediately start attacking the other schools. Initially, the pair are happy to oblige but start to become suspicious when they catch Daigo receiving orders from a young girl. The penny drops Daigo orders Gedo to attack Seijyun High where his sister is currently enrolled. Gan and Edge team up with Akira and Zaki to take down Daigo and bring him back to his senses. After releasing Daigo from his mind control, the gang confronts the true mastermind behind all the events befalling the students. After dealing with Justice High, Daigo decides to pursue more training and leaves control of Gedo to both Gan and Edge. The pair promise to protect his position until he gets back so they can challenge him for it officially.
