Upon hearing that Kenshiro was named successor, an outraged Jagi confronted him and ordered him to step down. When Kenshiro refused, Jagi tried to kill him but was defeated, only to be spared at the last moment. He escaped with a disfigured head, using metal implants to relieve the swelling and adopted a helmet to hide his now hideous face. He exacted his revenge by manipulating [[Shin]] of the ''[[Nanto Seiken]]'' into defeating Kenshiro and kidnapping his fiancée, [[Yuria]]. Shin had secretly loved Yuria, and Jagi convinced him that Kenshiro wasn't worthy of protecting her from the violent wasteland. | Upon hearing that Kenshiro was named successor, an outraged Jagi confronted him and ordered him to step down.

Jagi became a ruthless gang-leader, living only to hate his younger brother. His wounded pride and disfigured appearance made him paranoid and even caused him to murder his own minions in fits of rage.

Kenshiro manages to track down his nemesis and the two of them fight atop the roof of Jagi's hideout. Much to his surprise, Jagi finds himself overcome by his younger brother's new ruthlessness. He uses the gasoline from the tank to set the roof ablaze but after Kenshiro learns that it was Jagi who manipulated Shin against him he demolishes the floor in his anger. | Kenshiro manages to track down his nemesis and the two of them fight atop the roof of Jagi's hideout.

Jagi resorts to his own form of Nanto Seiken, which Kenshiro remarks is 'slow' and an insult to Shin's style. Kenshiro prolongs Jagi's death by dedicating four strikes to the victims of his evil schemes: Shin, Yuria, the two brothers [[Mako]] & [[Aki]], and saves the final blow for his own rage. Kenshiro insists that an ugly death befits Jagi and watches as he is obliterated once and for all. | Jagi resorts to his [[Nanto Jaro Geki|own form of Nanto Seiken]], which Kenshiro remarks is 'slow' and an insult to Shin's style.
