Searching for his family's murderer, Django arrives in the town of New Babylon in Texas, built by former slave John and young midwife Sarah to give everyone the right to live freely and equally.

After Sarah discovers an oil source, she wants to visit a banker in Elmdale together with John. Elizabeth plans an attack on the two, but Django comes to their aid.

Django rides with John, his sons, and Sarah to Nagadoches, where an old friend of John's might sell them a drill for oil production. Alerted by Aaron, her protégé who infiltrated New Babylon, Elizabeth organises an attack.

Django and Seymour embark on a dangerous mission to Pueblo to find a buyer for their hard-earned oil, encountering some hardened mercenaries along the way that put Seymour in danger.

Django uses a ruse to find out if Seymour is a traitor. He is supposed to accompany a bogus oil shipment to the north while another shipment is made to the south.

With a lawsuit, Elizabeth tries to take the land from her adversary John. When John is arrested by Sheriff Boone, Django wants to help his friend and clear up the injustice.
