You move to a new city and witness a store dispute where a rough-looking man is about to cause trouble. Before things escalate, customers call for the ‘Justice Guard,’ a local mafia that protects the city. The man leaves in frustration, and you learn that the town was once plagued by crime until a drifter named Ike formed the Justice Guard to maintain order.
Later, you see the same rough-looking man leading an attack on a defenseless customer. Unable to ignore it, you intervene, taunt the attackers, and defeat the leader. As the remaining thugs retaliate, Calvin, the second-in-command of the Justice Guard, arrives and helps you take them down. Impressed by the group's actions, you ask to join, and Calvin takes you to meet Ike.
At the hideout, you are drawn to Ike’s charisma. When you express your desire to join, Ike readily accepts you, stating that they never turn away those who want to join. Calvin assigns Cliff as your "big brother," and Cliff challenges you to a fight. Despite underestimating you, he is quickly defeated. Ike is pleased, and with your strength recognized, you are officially welcomed into the Justice Guard.
