Synopsis
Storm Shadow and Jinx fight a running battle with Zartan, who had placed a trap in a museum, using an Arashikage sword as bait, so as to kill Storm Shadow. The battle ends when an arrow shot by Storm Shadow hits the van driver, and causes the van to crash off the bridge, taking Zartan with him.
