Part 3/9:
A Dark Turn: Kidnapping and Coercion
The jubilant father-son atmosphere soon casts a shadow when Michael discovers that Bri has gone missing, leaving only a menacing note behind. It becomes evident that a connection exists between his daughter's abduction and a mysterious businessman named Ron Hall, who earlier approached Michael to invite him to a lucrative but perilous tournament in Europe—a Kumite promising a grand prize but requiring participants to engage in gruesome, life-or-death battles.
With Bri's safety hanging in the balance, Michael reluctantly accepts Ron Hall's invitation to save his daughter, stepping into a world where many fighters are similarly coerced by the vile businessman, their family members held captive to ensure their participation.
