However at one point the powerful team suddenly disbanded and the Amamiya brothers disappeared without a trace.

Still, even with the two powerful groups gone, peace was not to come as a take over has risen with five groups by the name of Sannoh Hoodlum Squad, White Rascals, Oya High School, Rude Boys, and Daruma Ikka rise to the helm and together name themselves “G-SWORD” and naming the area “SWORD” after their gang names.
