Billy Byrne is a low-class American created in Chicago's ghetto. He grows up a thief and a mugger. "Billy was a mucker, a hoodlum, a gangster, a thug, a hardcore." He's not chivalrous nor kind, and has only meager ethics - never supplying evidence against a pal or giving someone back of. He chooses a life of robbery and violence, disrespecting those who improve a full time income. He has a profound hatred for prosperous world. He trains as a prizefighter but cannot stop having. When falsely accused of murder, he flees to San Francisco which is shanghaied aboard a ship. Ironically, enforced sobriety, brutal ship's self-discipline, and productive work improve him. The ship's top secret objective is soon enacted - the hijacking of a specific yacht to take a millionaire's little princess, Barbara Harding, for ransom. Billy Byrne brutally is better than her suitor, Billy Mallory, giving him for useless. "He realized that she seemed down upon him as an inferior being. She was of the category that resolved those in his walk of life as 'my man'." After Barbara confronts him and calls him a coward, a big change begins in Billy Byrne. He will save you the life of 1 kidnapper, Theriere, rather than enabling him be cleaned overboard, though he cannot fathom his own reasons. After a terrible storm, the ship is damaged and only makes it to land with Billy's help at the wheel. He rescues Barbara from the wreck and brings her ashore. Barbara is kidnapped by headhunters descended from middle ages Japanese. Byrne and Theriere race to rescue her from the daimyo's hut in the middle of the village.
