In Chicago in the 1930s, the prohibition of alcohol sales became an extremely profitable business. The gang leader Capone used violent means to control the smuggling wine market and committed numerous crimes. The new federal official, Nass, was determined to crack down on alcohol smuggling, but his first operation failed because he leaked the information. Under the leadership of the veteran police officer Ma Long, Nas rebounded and formed an action team.
Nas destroyed Capone's underground warehouse and refused Capone's bribe. The evil Capone threatened Nas. But Nas did not compromise, and seized Capone's smuggling convoy at the border, and captured one of Capone's important men. Malone tried to force him to agree to be a witness against Capone, but in the elevator outside the court, both the witness and a member of the action team were assassinated by Capone's men.
