In the year 19XX most of the world's population died as a result of a nuclear war and civilization entered a new era of crime and violence.  At the center of this civilization there was gang called the Black Warriors, whose origins are unknown.  The Black Warriors started terrorizing ordinary citizens and the law was powerless to stop them.

However, two young men were strong enough to confront them.  Their names were Billy and Jimmy Lee, the Double Dragons.  Trained in Chinese martial arts, the Lee brothers protected citizens from the Black Warriors' attacks.  The brothers also trained citizens to defend themselves from the Black Warriors through their Sousetsuken Dojo.

Among the Lee brothers' students, there was a female instructor named Marian.  Marian had a love affair with Billy Lee.  The Black Warriors decided to take advantage of the opportunity.  One day, the Black Warriors attacked the city and took Marian as a hostage to lure the Lee brothers to their hideout.  Now Billy must go out alone or enlist the help of his brother Jimmy to defeat the Black Warriors and save Marian.
