HEART FULL OF LOVE, TRUNK FULL OF YAKUZA The mission to rescue Misaki is a resounding success, ending with Kojima tied up in the trunk and Sunagawa's plans in shambles. But this mess needs cleaning up, and Captain Ebihara slips out of his hospital room for a secret meeting... Meanwhile, with his cast finally off, Maguro's resident assassin wannabe Kuro shows up at Fable's door, begging again to be taken under his wing. Solve one problem, and it's replaced by three more. Is this what it's like to be a working man?

"The man called The Fable is a self-proclaimed "genius at killing." The mention of his codename strikes fear into the hearts of every yakuza in Japan. His talent has brought him everything he could want: money, respect, purpose. But this is no legend. He's just a man--a rather irritating man who loves stupid jokes and bad TV. After a bloody period of gang enforcement in Tokyo, the Fable's boss advises him to lie low and enjoy his earnings for a while. So begins the Fable's toughest mission yet: a full year living a normal life, at the other end of the bullet train, in Osaka. It's a mission he takes on with his usual professionalism and rigor. But can the Osaka mob let this legend rest? Or will they be unable to resist pulling him back into the underworld?"

GRAPHIC DESIGN IS MY PASSION. The boogieman of the Japanese underworld known as "Fable" is taking a year off from killing for hire to lay low in Osaka, and it turns out this "normal life" thing is pretty fun. He's got a new friend (a parrot), and his neighbor Misaki has gotten him a new job, doodling childish cartoons for an hourly pittance at the small design company where she works. But as Misaki saves up money to open her shop, she gets tangled up in a sex work trap set by a local yakuza member. How far can Fable go to save her--without breaking the vow he made to his boss to avoid deadly force, even when someone totally deserves it?

In the future there is no more natural death, no needs unfilled, and everything you could ever want is yours... as long as you're one of the chosen ones to live in this new Utopia and you're willing to subjugate yourself to these new self-proclaimed gods with "IX" emblazoned on them. Do the ends truly justify the means?

In the aftermath of Robot's attempt to take over the world, the few survivors that remain must pick up the pieces of a world once familiar...
