1945

An atomic bomb is dropped on Tokyo
Japan at the end of World War II. The
bomb, intended to target the emperor's
palace, strays off course but fails to
detonate. It lands instead on the home
of a young boy, OSHIRO ASAKAWA,
killing his mother and his sister. The
young boy is taken to the city of
Hiroshima to live with his remaining
family. While in route he witnesses, from
a distance, the complete destruction of
Hiroshima and its people. The young
boy swears revenge on the Americans.
The unexploded atomic bomb is never
found by the US government.

PRESENT DAY

Children playing in the hills above
Tokyo, Japan stumble into a hidden
bunker complex where the vintage
atomic bomb is being retro fitted for
detonation. The children are murdered
and end up floating in the Tokyo harbor.

In Maryland at NSA headquarters
black-ops Chief GENERAL
BLANKENSHIP calls back from
retirement his best, though troubled,
field agent JAKE CASH. His mission: to
hunt down what he is told is the core of
a missing reactor. Cash reluctantly
agrees to take the case and
immediately leaves for Tokyo to start
the search. At the American embassy
Cash is united with an old friend
GEORGE DONAVAN, his contact officer
in Tokyo.

Cash's investigation soon leads him to
the door step of the now grown up boy,
shipping magnet Oshiro Asakawa. Cash
is tailed by YOSHI OSHIMANO, a female
agent from the Japanese Secret
Service. After some rankling they
unofficially combine forces and together
begin to unwind a plot implicating
Asakawa and the bomb.

Cash is summoned to Guam by
Blankenship where a top secret brief
from Harry Truman is opened revealing
the truth about the missing bomb. Cash
learns that an Al Queda cell along with a
Pakistani scientist are being
manipulated by Oshiro Asahawa to
prepare the bomb for detonation in the
United States.

Cash, however, returns to Tokyo too
late. Asakawa has left Japan with the
bomb on board a special retro fitted
ship the Toshi Maru. Cash, Yoshi and
Donavan take a plane and find the ship
but are shot down. They are forced to
make an emergency landing on the deck
of the Toshi Maru where Donavan is
murdered by Asakawa's henchmen.

Cash and Yoshi are imprisoned on the
ship. With plane and ship missing, the
president of the United States
authorizes Blankenship with the help of
the Navy and Air force, to find and
destroy the ship at all cost before it can
reach the US.

Under the cover of a typhoon,
Asakawa plays a cat and mouse game
with the US Navy across the Pacific.
After several close encounters
Asakawa's true plan is revealed. Al
Queda operatives will fly a suicide
mission with a C-130 painted with US
Coast Guard Insignias off the deck of
the Toshi Maru and detonate the bomb
over Los Angeles.

Asakawa wanting to dispose of Cash
and Yoshi puts them aboard the
C-130. At the final moment before the
bomb is exploded
Cash frees himself and Yoshi. A fight
ensues at the same time US jet
fighters threaten to shoot them out of
the sky. Cash and Yoshi gain control
of the plane, kill the terrorists. Cash
flies the plane back out to sea and
drops it near the Toshi Maru killing
Asakawa and his henchman. Cash and
Yoshi barely escape the blast
crashing the C-130 into the ocean
where they are picked up by a US
submarine.
