Kanbu Bust-out is a mission in Grand Theft Auto III given to protagonist Claude by Yakuza co-leader Kenji Kasen from his casino in the Torrington district of Staunton Island, Liberty City.

Mission

Kenji informs Claude that a high ranking member of the Yakuza has been arrested by the Liberty City Police Department and that Claude will be breaking him out. Claude takes a police car to 8-Ball's bomb shop, getting the car rigged with a time bomb. Claude drives to the police headquarters and parks the car next to the cells, before detonating the bomb. Claude and Kanbu then steal a police vehicle to escape the police station before changing cars to lose the pursuing police. After losing the police, Claude takes Kanbu to the Hyaku Dojo.

Script

Kenji Kasen: My sister speaks highly of you, though I am yet to be convinced that a gaijin can offer anything but disappointment. Perhaps you can help deal with a situation that has me at a disadvantage. Of course failure has its own disgrace. A Yakuza Kanbu is in custody awaiting transfer for trial. He is a valued member of the family. Break him out of custody and get him to the dojo at Bedford Point.

Reward

The reward for completing the mission is $30,000. The mission Grand Theft Auto is unlocked.

Trivia

The cell Kanbu was held in has blood marks all over the wall, insinuating that he was tortured.
The same blood marks inside the cell are reused for Apartment 3c in Ocean Beach that appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.
It is not required to complete any of Kenji's missions to finish the story. However, completing the mission Waka-Gashira Wipeout will permanently disable all of Kenji's missions, preventing the player from achieving 100% completion.
