Train bandit Link (Creator/CharlesBronson) is double crossed by his partner Gauche (Alain Delon), who steals a ceremonial sword sent as a gift to President Grant. Link hopes to find where the spoils are buried, but is forced to team up with one of the Japanese ambassador's guards, Jubei Kuroda (Creator/ToshiroMifune), to recover the sword. Time is of the essence, however, as Jubei has a week to recover the sword or he will commit {{Seppuku}}.
