Gai watches the battle between Tetsu Amon and the Joryu Clan at the Hell Arena. As Tetsu is defeated, he attempts to stand back up, but Gai enters the ring and kicks him down. Face-to-face with Joryu, Gai introduces himself, and calls Tetsu a disappointment to the Amon Clan. Subsequently, Gai explains how he felt after watching Joryu fight, and invites him to a duel at the Castle's helipad.
Joryu arrives at the helipad, ready for the duel, and Gai teleports both of them to the Port of Yokohama. Defeated, Gai concedes, acknowledging Joryu to be the strongest man alive. Gai remarks Joryu's name will reverberate through the Amon Clan, to which he responds he'll just get a new name.
== Fighting Style ==
Gai Amon uses Kiryu's original Dragon of Dojima style and makes use of various Agent gadgets.
In his first phase, Gai tends to follow a pattern where he will attack with one or two of his gadgets before running up and attacking the player with a rush combo. Gai is able to perform Dragon Style's heavy finishers, quickstep attacks, and he can counter attacks with Tiger Drop. He has blue heat with purple attack trails.
His gadgets include:
* Spider and Firefly - if he successfully catches the player with Spider, he will then followup by throwing a Firefly bomb.
* Grenades - Gai will frequently backflip away and then throw a flashbang grenade, a caltrop grenade, and a knife directly at Joryu.
* Wrist Bombs - Gai will launch three wrist bombs in Joryu's direction.
* Healing Drones - At the start of the fight, Gai has drones in the shape of a heart above him. As long as these are active they will constantly heal Gai. Joryu can destroy these by using Hornet.
* Hornet - If his healing drones are gone, Gai will occasionally summon a Hornet swarm to rush at Joryu.
Once Gai has roughly five health bars remaining, his second phase starts and he gains red heat with purple attack trails. The fight becomes more straightforward with Gai forgoing the use of gadgets and attacking directly using more Dragon Style combos. He has the same explosion attack as Juzo Amon/Energy Explosion Extract, but slower. Gai will also frequently taunt and immediately counterattack with a Tiger Drop if hit during his taunt. Gai is able to heal himself by damaging Joryu.
Repeated Heat Actions will cause decreased damage to Gai but he does not become immune to them.
