At the start of this particular issue, the narrative follows Charley and his friends as they find themselves in a precarious situation aboard their yacht, the "Ghost". Hearing sounds of approaching oars in the dark mist raises their anxiety, culminating in a tense moment when they prepare to defend themselves against suspected pirates.
