The Mafia learns that a new civic center will be built, and they buy all of the land for the site of the building—all except for one place: a karate school owned by Pop Byrd, Black Belt Jones’ old friend.
Prior to the movie’s events, Pop Byrd had borrowed money from a local drug dealer, Pinky, in order to open his school. Pinky had been stealing money from the mafia and was forced to pay them $250,000 or get Pop’s building for them. Pinky inflated the debt with a ridiculous amount of interest, with the intent of offering Pop the deal of trading his building in exchange for the debt being cleared. However, things do not go as planned, as Pop is accidentally killed by Pinky’s men during an intimidation attempt. Before he dies, he states that he couldn’t give them the building to settle his debt, because it did not belong to him, but to someone named Sydney.
Pinky then decides to send his men to the karate school, to inform them of Pop’s debt (inflated yet again) and attempt the same scheme. However, the thugs are beaten up by Black Belt Jones and the students. Meanwhile, a woman arrives to attend Pop’s funeral, who is none other than Sydney, the daughter of the late Pop Byrd. After demanding to know what happened to her father, she is informed of the mafia’s activities as well as her father’s debt, but says she won’t sell the building. Angered, she is determined to punish the people who caused her father’s death. (It must be mentioned that she hadn’t seen her father since she was 5 years old, which makes her anger seem very exaggerated.) Because both Sydney and Black Belt Jones are martial arts experts, they join forces to “clobber the mob”.
