With the villagers being held hostage by thieves...
...Ryu and Ken were forced to enter the cave where...
...a monster supposedly dwells and retrieve the treasure inside.
lnside the cave the two of them faced different monsters...
...and it became clear that their battle was a test they had to pass.
They passed it brilliantly, returned from the cave...
...and saved the villagers.
Come with me. l will show you Hadou.
Using a special breathing technique, you open the Chakra...
...within you, causing the living Ki swirling around you to...
...sublimate from the head as Sahasrara Chakra.
This method is known as Kundalini.
Whether or not this is the ""Hadou"" you seek, l cannot say.
Mr. Monk!
Something... Something in my body is...
l don't understand it! lt feels strange...
What's wrong, Ryu?
l don't know. l don't know what's happening to me.
A few seconds ago, l felt a power start growing in...
...the pit of my stomach that l can't keep inside me anymore!
And now...
Now l feel like l have to shoot the Hadou out of me!
Can it be?!
No!
What happened?!
Ryu!
Ryu, speak to me! Ryu!
What happened?! What did you just do?!
Ryu, wake up! Ryu!
What he just did... lt was the Hadou Ken!
Ryu, c'mon!
Ow...
You okay? Ryu!
Long ago, there lived a man who could absorb the Ki of...
...all creation and shape it to his will.
He was the great Master Bodhidharma.
Master Bodhidharma...
Master Bodhidharma shaped it and used it as a fighting style...
...based upon extremely high levels of Hadou.
As a fighting style?
l've heard it could pulverize a huge stone with only one blow.
The tale of this attack is the Legend of the Hadou Ken.
Legend of the Hadou Ken...
lt appears that you, like Master Bodhidharma...
...can control natural Ki energy.
l suspect my release of Hadou through the Kundalini exercise...
...had the effect of opening up your own Chakra.
""Chakra""?
There are seven types of Ki which flow through the human spine.
That is what we call Chakra.
What you just used before was the sixth type:
Swadistana Chakra.
ln your language, Tanden. ""Of the abdomen.""
Tanden...
Ryu, this is great! The same power as Bodhidharma!
Huh? Oh, right.
Don't be arrogant!
You've just acquired a technique in an instant that...
...an ordinary student would need at least five years to learn!
The backlash will be huge!
You couldn't control all the energy that flowed into you.
lt simply exploded, didn't it?
What happens if you should lose consciousness again?
l understand. lf l feel the power building up in my stomach...
...and can't stop it or release it, l might lose control again.
And when l woke up, l'd find THlS has happened again.
Tell me! How do l control the Ki when it builds up in my body?!
How can l control the Hadou Ken?!
l don't know.
The method l used to release the Ki within you...
...is only for purification or healing the injured.
l don't know how to use it as a martial art.
Then who do l ask to learn to control the Hadou Ken?!
No one can help you.
Think. Look within yourself.
lt is something you must do alone.
Say, Ryu.
We've just been thinking of this Hadou stuff like...
...it was just another fighting move we could pick up, haven't we?
Yeah...
So, Ryu...
Like the monk said, you were able to instantly do...
...what normally takes years to learn.
How to concentrate natural Ki. And how to control Hadou.
l guess it's just a natural ability for you.
But to just suddenly gain that much power...
...and not be able to control it...
l don't think there can be anything scarier than that.
lf you can't control something that powerful...
...it could just explode like it did before.
Yeah. This isn't just a problem of controlling Ki.
l could really hurt myself.
lf you're careless, that power could go berserk...
...and end up killing you.
Ryu, don't let this get you down.
You've got a great lead into understanding what Hadou is.
There's no rush. You have time to learn to control it.
Ken... l know just how dangerous this can be...
...but l want to learn how to do the Hadou Ken.
l thought so.
Mr. Monk!
l know where he's gone. Follow me.
Ryu... You're in there?
''Think. Look inside yourself.'' So he went into the cave...
lt's begun.
Finally coming out, Mr. Monster?
You!
Guile!
What the...?!
l see tracks of light!
His punches... They're following the light tracks!
Now l understand! The light is his intentions!
The Hadou of where he intends to attack!
So, the punch follows where the light goes...
All right then!
Enough of this. l don't want to fight you now.
You showed us just how arrogant we really were.
lf we hadn't met you...
...l don't know what we'd be doing now.
l doubt l'd know anything about Hadou.
l miss you, Guile. l'd like to just talk to you for a while.
Now what?!
This is... Where we were today!
lncredible! l'd never know this was all just an illusion!
l wonder what'll happen next?
You've just acquired a technique in an instant that...
...an ordinary student would need at least five years to learn!
The backlash will be huge!
What happens if you should lose consciousness again?
But to just suddenly gain that much power...
...and not be able to control it...
l don't think there can be anything scarier than that.
One day, you'll hit a wall and not know where to turn.
When that happens, the great master will help you.
l don't believe you two!
All you think about are martial arts!
l'm ready now! l don't care what it'll take to master Hadou!
Damn! lt's stronger than the one l did earlier!
What the...?! Now what's happening?!
This light... Of course! This is...
The Hadou of intention... But WHOSE intentions?!
Mine? Are these all MY intentions?!
Amateur!
Mr. Monk!
When you face an opponent...
...are your thoughts really this random?!
ls that the way of a martial artist?!
You must control your intentions unconsciously.
Control your thoughts and gather these conflicting intentions.
A train cannot run without rails upon which to move!
Control your thoughts and lay the rails to me.
Use the rails to guide the Hadou!
Damn it! He just shows up and...
...tells me to control it like it's nothing at all.
Gather my intentions? How do l do that?!
My thoughts are random?
They wouldn't be if l was facing a real opponent--
Real opponents!
Now l see! Combine ALL of them together!
HADOU KEN!!! Wave Motion Punch
We'll visit again.
Thanks for everything, Mr. Monk!
Your Hadou Ken isn't perfected. Keep training your mind.
l understand. l think l can take my time in mastering it now.
What you've taught me and...
...my other martial arts training will see me through.
lf you understand that now, you'll do just fine. Now go.
Come back someday. Promise me you will!
Sure. l promise.
Ryu!
There was a message for us at the hotel.
Guess who it's from.
Dunno.
Chun Li from Hong Kong.
Huh?! Chun Li?! Man, a trip down memory lane.
What's she say?
Basically ""Get to Barcelona, Spain, on the double!""
Barcelona?
She didn't go into any details...
...but it has something to do with her dad working for Interpol.
Shall we check it out, Ryu?
Spain, huh? Sounds like fun!
Then it's settled! l'll send an answer back right now.
Goodbye, lndia...
A crimson spray on the ends of cold, shining claws.
A crimson rose clamped in lips from which blooms a self-indulgent kiss.
ln Barcelona they meet this handsome matador.
His name: Balrog.
And the prize he now seeks is Chun Li herself!
Next time, on Street Fighter ll V: ""The Bloodthirsty Prince.""
""A Lust for Beauty and a Love Potion for Chun Li.""
They go to meet the mighty!
