Description:
Somewhere in the desert lies the world's greatest treasure: the 12 Rings of the dead, the only sources of the mysterious substance "Zombie Powder," which can raise the dead and give the living eternal life...

Elwood was a knife-thrower caught in a life of crime until he met Gamma Akutabi, class "S" criminal, a man with a 6-foot chainsaw and a metal hand. Soon, Elwood is caught up in Gamma's quest for the most precious objects in the world: the Rings that might give new life to Elwood's sister... or make Gamma even harder to kill than he is already.

But to get eternal life, they'll have to put their own lives on the line... and look down the barrel of the gun of the only man who is Gamma's equal.

Story and art by Tite Kubo.
