What happens

Limit of Love: Umizaru (Limit of Love 海猿), also known as Umizaru 2: Test of Trust is a 2006 Japanese action drama film directed by Eiichiro Hasumi. It is the second feature-length film and third of the Umizaru projects, set after the film Umizaru and the 11-episode drama series Umizaru Evolution. The film stars Hideaki Itō as Japan Coast Guard (JCG) rescue diver Daisuke Senzaki, and Ai Kato as his love interest Kanna Izawa. It is the second of the three-part film and television project, which is adapted from the popular manga series Umizaru by Shūhō Satō. The film was the second-highest-grossing film ever at the Japanese box office, trailing only Bayside Shakedown 2. The film's opening weekend gross was 4.42 times that of its predecessor, Umizaru. Hideaki Itō, the male lead, has a Divemaster license awarded by PADI Japan, a professional diving qualification. The theme song is "Precious" by vocalist Yuna Ito. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
