Sakamoto got married, had a daughter, opened a mom-and-pop store in a quiet town, and completely transformed... into a plus size! To ensure a peaceful life with his beloved family, the legendary ex-hitman takes on a relentless stream of assassin attacks. This action-packed story of the ordinary and extraordinary begins here!
