Hell's Paradise: Jogokuraku chronicles the story of death row convict Gabimaru

In Hell's Paradise, Gabimaru, known as the Hollow, is a skilled assassin who is captured during a mission and sentenced to execution. However, his superhuman body makes him nearly invincible, leaving executioners unable to kill him. Gabimaru believes his love for his wife keeps him alive, and this belief is tested when executioner Yamada Asaemon Sagiri offers him a chance to obtain a full pardon from the Shogunate.

Gabimaru needs to find the elixir of life in Shinsenkyo, a legendary land found southwest of the Ryukyu Kingdom. This is the only way he can get a pardon. The catch is that five previous expeditions to the island have failed, resulting in the loss of numerous lives. This time, the Shogunate sends a group of death row convicts to retrieve the elixir, with each convict assigned a Yamada Asaemon executioner. To obtain the pardon, the convicts must return with their assigned executioner.

As Gabimaru and the other convicts embark on this dangerous mission, they face numerous obstacles that test their skills and resolve. Their journey promises to be filled with danger and excitement, as they risk their lives to obtain the elixir of life and secure their freedom.
