Mosquito, Monk, Dragon, White Monkey and A-Lan, five teenagers joined “Prince Gang”, simple because Mosquito’s lunch was snatched on his first day transferred to the high school in Monga, and they are all tired of being bullied. While thy enjoyed their young gangster lifestyle and ready to take over the streets, the powerful others have casted greedy eyes on the prosperous Monga. The kids just knew nothing about it.
Geta, the boss of one of the gangs in Monga, takes the responsibilities of explaining to the young gangsters the legacy that has been established by the founders of Monga, the fighting for resources and honors and the meaning of brotherhood.
