A diver saves his friend's life but loses his arm in the process. Later, unable to find work because of his disability, the diver agrees reluctantly to work for a criminal searching for lost treasure. Meanwhile, his friend has since become a police officer, and is assigned to break up the criminal's operation and arrest everyone in the gang—including the diver who saved his life.
