### Summary
In a post-apocalyptic world submerged by a relentless, 70-year monsoon, humanity's remnants survive at sea, hunted by monstrous leviathans. The central figures in this struggle are siblings Bota and Lita Ma, who, under the care of their guardian and veteran harpooner, Kana, are on a desperate quest to find a cure for Lita's mutating disease. This affliction, contracted from the Sea Demon Genod, recently reached its crisis point, transforming Lita into a powerful but volatile human-leviathan hybrid. This dramatic change shifts her from a victim to a formidable combatant, but it also creates a new, pressing conflict: the group must now protect her not only from sea monsters but also from humans who may see her as a threat to be eliminated. The journey to the floating city of Busan Union for a cure is further complicated by the apparent sacrifice of a recent, powerful ally—an elderly Sea Demon who has chosen to stay behind. This leaves Bota and Kana to manage Lita's dangerous new reality as they face an impending debate over her very right to exist.
