賭博堕天録カイジ

Kaiji Ito came out of Teiai's underground labor compound with his debt cleared and nothing else, and has spent the months since sponging off Sakazaki, the man he beat the Bog with. Sakazaki finally hands him severance money to leave. Then Miyoshi and Maeda, two of his former workmates from underground, turn up: their casino boss Muraoka has been bleeding their wages away at a mahjong variant of his own design called 17 Steps, and they want Kaiji at the table.
