In Fukuoka, first you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the women--unless you're Il Palazzo, in which case you get the women first and proceed from there. As the struggle for the city takes its most blatant form yet, with a mayoral race between the long-haired chairman of ILL and the long-mustached head of the Department of Environmental Security. It falls to Elgala, of all people, to comprehend that something is terribly, terribly wrong with Excel. But sit back and relax--because there's something terribly wrong for everyone in this volume of Excel Saga!
