Believing that his wife, Jane, has been killed in the attack, Tarzan is consumed by rage and vows to seek vengeance. He embarks on a one-man war against the Germans, using his unmatched jungle skills to sabotage their operations and hunt them down.
During his journey, Tarzan encounters Bertha Kircher, a German spy with a mysterious past. Despite her affiliation with his enemies, she proves to be a complex and intriguing character, blurring the lines between friend and foe.
