## Chapter
- number: 58
- release_date: 2025-03-08

### Summary
The narrative has shifted from a quest for survival to a direct confrontation with past trauma. Following a multi-year time skip, a matured Bota Ma is now locked in a desperate solo battle against the intelligent, human-faced leviathan that murdered his father, the legendary harpooner Teon Ma. This fight was triggered after Bota, his sister Lita, and their guardian Kana infiltrated a new settlement and exposed its leader's horrifying secret: he was sacrificing refugees to the very same monster lurking beneath the city. With the conspiracy revealed and the creature unleashed, Bota has taken up his father's legacy and sword to face the source of his family's pain. The current chapter details this underwater duel, revealing that Bota's "gas sword" is not merely for effect but is used for tactical maneuvering. This deeply personal struggle for vengeance has completely sidelined the group's original, long-stalled mission to find a cure for Lita's mutating disease, which remains an increasingly distant objective.
