Intro
A caveman was found in a salt mine along with a preserved T-rex. The dinosaur was sadly dead, but pickle? He was still alive. A man named Mitsunari Tokugawa had taken pickle and brought him to the Tokyo dome underground arena. Where he'll get a proper fight.
Every fighter sensed it. The caveman. Oh they also saw it on the news. Suddenly all of them want to fight pickle. Except Baki. Our main character. He just wants to fight his dad, the ogre, the strongest creature on the planet.
Baki isn't too happy. No one will train or spar with him because of the caveman. He thinks to himself
"Pickle this...Pickle that...Pickle THIS and Pickle THAT. That's all theyre talking about nowadays...Pickle Pickle Pickle."
the other fighters? Training to go fight pickle. Except Yujiro. He doesnt care too much. He wants to fight Baki.
