However, few know of Apollo’s biggest secret: his father, also an NYPD officer, was brutally murdered by the powerful Yakuza boss, “Kamakiri” (“the Mantis”), while trying to infiltrate the Yakuza crime ring of New York. His father’s murder is Apollo’s sole reason for joining the force, and he will not stop until he sees Kamakiri brought into the avenging arms of the law.

The chief tells Apollo that he’ll be transferring to Beverly Hills with one mission: take down Kamakiri by any means necessary.
