Plot
Siafong (Hernfah Khwangmhek) is a lawyer working for a crime family in Hong Kong. He acquires evidence that his wealthy client's devious son-in-law Tungseung has been stealing money from the family. Tungseung sends a deadly gang of martial artists known as the Green Dragons to silence Sianfong, who flees to Thailand. A Thai cop and martial artist named Tong (Panna Rittikrai) searches for the lawyer to have him returned alive to Hong Kong, fighting off gang members along the way.
