Following the events of the first movie, the story picks up. We learn that another criminal, Bejo (Alex Abbad), has captured and killed Jakarta gang leader Andi in the opening shot. Rama (Iko Uwais), in the meantime, transports Lt. Wahyu went with him to meet Lt. a unit in charge of internal investigations, Bunawar. Wahyu is immediately killed by Bunawar.
Rama is taken aback by this action. Nevertheless, Bunawar assures him that it is for his protection from other dishonest police officers. He also requests that Rama pose as a criminal to reveal police chief Reza's shady dealings with the Bangun and Goto crime syndicates. Despite his initial reluctance, he eventually accepts the offer after hearing about the passing of Andi, Rama's brother.
Rama beats the politician's son who put the ambitious son of crime lord Bangun (Tio Pakusadewo), Uco (Arifin Putra), in jail under the alias Yuda. He is detained and imprisoned alongside Uco as a result of this. Rama wins Uco's trust in prison by saving him during a bloody riot meant to hide an assassination. When Rama is released from prison two years later, Bangun this time takes him under his wing as an act of gratitude for saving his son's life.
He contracts Yayan Ruhian's hitman Prakoso to kill a different one of his competitors in the meantime. Uco grows frustrated with his limited status in his father's empire during this entire ordeal. He meets with Bejo in a desperate attempt to prove his position.
Rumors of a scheme to turn Reza (Roy Marten) and others against his father are spread by Bejo. Bejo grants Uco permission to kill the gang members responsible for the prison riot as a token of their newfound friendship. To further disrupt the truce between Bangun and fellow crime lord Hideaki Goto (Kenichi Endo), they plan to start a gang war. As Bejo seizes control of Goto's domain, the scheme might give Uco the chance to show his father how valuable he is.
The "Assassin" (Cecep Arif Rahman), Bejo's top enforcer and bodyguard, is set up to kill Prakoso by Uco. Prakoso is sliced through the neck by "The Assassin," who then leaves him to bleed to death in the snow. Uco has reason to accuse Goto's gang of being responsible for Prakoso's death. However, Bangun declines to launch a defense. Angry, Uco persuades Bejo to send his two hitmen, siblings Hammer Girl and Baseball Bat Man, to kill a number of Goto's men, successfully starting a gang war between the two families.
When Bangun and Goto meet to make amends, Uco lashes out in rage, embarrassing Bangun into ceding territory. When they get back to his office, Bangun slaps Uco angrily. Rama is assaulted, and Bunawar informs him that Reza's dishonest cops were the ones who pursued him. A fellow criminal, Eka, then asks him to defend Uco. He is on his way to Bangun's office when Bejo, the Assassin, and a gang of henchmen arrive. After confessing to his treachery, Uco shoots Eka and his father. Rama arrives and gives Eka a chance to flee before Bejo can shoot her off, but the Assassin captures her and drives her off to be killed. In the course of rescuing Rama during a dangerous car chase, Eka suffers a serious injury and confesses to Rama that he is also an undercover police officer.
Ryuichi, one of Goto's goons, informs Goto of Uco's treachery and that Bejo and Uco will be meeting police chief Reza at a warehouse. Rama makes a call to Bunawar, who informs him that the gang war has intensified, the commissioner has been killed, and Eka is to blame for the deaths of 10 honorable police officers. Additionally, he informs Rama of Reza, Bejo, and Uco's meeting. To negotiate terms against Goto, Bejo and Uco meet with Reza.
After killing his father, Uco is in shock. He comes across a bug that Rama planted in his wallet while he was tipping a boy for giving him toilet paper. He also observes Bejo has the same tattoo as the gang member who attempted to kill him during the riot, realizing he has been used as a pawn by Bejo and Reza.
As Bejo's goons battle him, Rama sneaks into the warehouse. The same Hammer Girl and Baseball Bat Man are blocking him as he makes his way down the hallway, but he still manages to kill both of them. When Rama enters the kitchen, the assassin is already there. The Assassin and Rama engage in a single-player duel as the kitchen staff departs. Rama kills the assassin using the assassin's karambit following a brutal, bloody, and ferocious battle.
Finally reaching Bejo, Rama interrupts the meeting. Bejo uses a shotgun to graze Rama on the side in an attempt to kill him, but Uco shoots and also kills Reza and Bejo. Rama stabs Uco to death with a karambit before Uco has a chance to kill Rama as well. Uco passes away in Rama's arms. Rama leaves the building limping, weak and worn out. There, he is met by Goto's son Keichi and a number of henchmen who have been sent to attack the meeting.
In the final scene, Bunawar is seen walking toward the location, and Keichi smirks as he silently proposes a deal to Rama at the same time. Rama simply replied, "I'm done," in response to the offer, which we are unable to clearly hear. The Raid 2 is an emotionally compelling story to watch despite its brutal, bloody, and intense content. The story is primarily about a man who is trying to find hope in the dark world of crime. Our main character, Rama, is a man who wants to put things right.
Rama is established as a good believer in the opening scene by the director. He wants to carry out justice in a legal manner, so if he must violate this moral code, there must be a good reason for doing so.
He also isolates himself as a result of his ideology. Rama made the ultimate sacrifice, giving up even his wife and child. But he is horrified to discover that he is surrounded by lies, including Bunwar's cover-up of Eka's identity and Uco's murder of his father. Finally, when Rama declares that he is finished, he actually means that he is finished with this lie-filled and deceitful life.
