INTRODUCTION
Having discovered that Why-man, the mastermind behind humanity's petrification, is on the moon, Senku initiates the "Moon Landing Project" to unravel all the mysteries, embarking on a massive undertaking to build a spacecraft from scratch.
Senku and his team immediately set sail across the vast ocean to gather materials for the spacecraft from around the world. Upon reaching their first destination, America, they encounter an advanced Kingdom of Science led by Dr. Xeno. In a rapid-fire battle of science vs. science, with each side targeting the other's leader, Chrome and his team manage to capture Dr. Xeno.
Evading Stanley's fierce pursuit, their next target is the source of that dreadful petrification beam—South America! As they challenge the secrets of the petrification device "Medusa," Senku and his team race through the Amazon at full speed, crafting as they go. With Stanley's forces closing in, Senku and his Kingdom of Science companions keep the flame of science alive as they finally approach the core of Medusa!
