・Barracuda
The mafia has tremendous power in Hawaii.
One of the major forces in Hawaii’s underworld. Unusual among mafia groups, this group is connected more by their circumstances as former homeless people than by racial or ethnic ties. The machete, the weapon used by Commander Dwight, is also loved by the members, and it is well known and feared among the local residents that they can open up their enemies to show off their power.
The local police are too dangerous to touch Katsu, but they also seem to have a mysterious source of funding.

・Gunjo
The Chinese mafia divides Hawaii’s underworld.
The Chinese mafia has a power comparable to that of the barracuda in Hawaii. The commander-in-chief is Wong To, a man who ostensibly is the owner of the luxury hotel Nirvana Bank. It is said that he has built strong connections with ultra-wealthy people around the world by contracting to hide their assets.
For some reason, he is pursuing Akane, the woman who is said to be Kasuga’s birth mother, and appears to be competing with Barracuda for her.

・Yamai clan
An up-and-coming violent group led by the monster Yamai
Violent gangs for sale in Hawaii. The group is headed by Yutaka Yamai and consists mainly of Japanese Americans.
It is rumored that Yamai once caused an incident in Japan and was flown to Hawaii, but it is not certain whether this is true or not. It is based in Night Square, a part of Honolulu City, and is expanding its territory day by day to compete with Gunjo and Barracuda, and is sensitive to the scent of money and joins the battle for Akane.

・Parekana
A historic religious organization dedicated to helping the weak. It is a religious group with a history of over 100 years, and its doctrine considers fire to be sacred.
The current figurehead is Bryce Fairchild. Based in Honolulu City, it has long been known for its dedication to community service. The group’s activities are wide-ranging, including running soup kitchens and establishing and operating foster care facilities for children with no relatives, and they are highly trusted by local residents and government officials.

・Daidoji group
Fixer group in the setting sun
They are connected to the fixer Daidoji, who has had a great influence on Japan’s political and business circles since before the war. However, as time has passed, and now the Democratic Liberal Party, which is a close ally of the party, has left the party, its power is gradually being lost.
