Shattered by her mother's sudden death and feeling betrayed by her boyfriend and friends, Tory receives an unexpected invitation from her former sensei. If she agrees to leave everything behind, she will become the female captain of Cobra Kai to participate in the Sekai Taikai, an international karate tournament that could change her life forever. Desperate to gain custody of her little brother and escape their horrible aunt, the girl makes a decision.
On the other side of the ocean, among the dense mountains of South Korea, a group of karate students train day and night in their traditional dojo. They are the best and must prove it. Without fear, without mercy. This is the original Way of the Fist, the same one that was born among these mountains more than half a century ago. But the new male captain will not have an easy time following its demands, especially after the arrival of an odd American blonde who makes him question everything he has believed until now…
