The story

When a renegade Japanese gang known as the Katana takes control of the cocaine trade in Los Angeles, the Los Angeles Police Department transfers in Joe Marshall, a "samurai" policeman from the San Diego Police Department who has been "trained by the masters in Japan" and "speaks fluent Japanese". An attempted bust meets with failure after a bizarre car chase leads to multiple deaths, and the only witness is critically burned and unable to testify. Katana boss Fujiyama orders the injured Katana member to be executed and his head displayed on a piano to remind the Katana members of their code of silence.
