What happens

The story was adapted from Jubaku no Machi (-呪縛の街-; "The Cursed City"), a 1996 Hokuto no Ken novel written by Buronson and Tetsuo Hara set sometime after the conclusion of the original manga. An English dubbed version of the OVA was produced by ADV Films in 2004. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
