Story[]
The events of the game take place simultaneously to Sift Heads 4. The game starts 48 hours before Kienji's assassination, which is one of Vinnie's missions in SH4.
After Kiro and Kienji successfully reclaimed the factory taken by Triads. After, Kienji was accepted into the Yakuza by Yuuma. Master Yuuma then gives some tasks to Kienji, which he easily fulfills. Meanwhile, Kiro is taking care of another mission assigned to him, encounters Shigeru and fights him. However, Shigeru survives the fight.
Having arrived earlier than expected, Kienji overheard the conversation he wasn't supposed to hear - it turns out that Master Yuuma and the Triad Chief were doing trade deals. Surprised by this, he quietly walked away from the scene. Although he avoided getting seen, Yuuma knows exactly who was spying and orders Vinnie to assassinate him.
Expansion[]
In Sift Renegade 3: Defiance, the story reveals Kienji's perspective after he found out about the trade deal conversation between Master Yuuma and the Triad Chief.
