### Summary
The personal quest of siblings Bota and Lita Ma has escalated into a global crisis. Following a confrontation where the leviathan Krill was revealed to be a sentient guardian offering a cure for Lita's mutating disease, Lita has sacrificially transformed into a massive, nest-like shelter to protect her allies. This act of heroism has been tragically misinterpreted; a worldwide coalition of harpooners, including factions from Busan Union and New York, now perceives her as a monstrous threat. This international force is mobilizing to destroy her using a controversial and potentially catastrophic strategy called "Burning Sun." As Bota and his guardian Kana race against time to save Lita, the conflict's global scale is expanding, drawing in diverse groups and cultures. A palpable sense of dread looms over their mission, as there is speculation that Lita may be forced into further conflict before her brother can intervene, cementing her mistaken identity as the world's ultimate enemy.
