The starry sky stretched endlessly, and the vast universe was nothing but cold and desolation.
After five days,
the Golden Ship left a long trail like a shooting star as it began to circle the moon.
The moon's entire surface was covered in craters, pitted and irregular. One could imagine how many extinction-level asteroids it had deflected from the pirate planet over the ages.
"So this is the moon?"
"There are so many craters!"
"Are we sure there's a civilization here?"
A crowd of people watched the moon through the windows.
"Let's check the far side."
Under Chaos's control, the Golden Ship accelerated around the moon, eventually reaching its far side.
"What's that?"
"Could it really be..."
"Boss, let's get down there and have a look!"
The Golden Ship plunged toward the far side of the moon at incredible speed.
Before the ship had even landed, the group had donned oxygen tanks and touched down. Standing on a rocky slope, they stared wide-eyed, unable to hide their disbelief and astonishment.
"There really was a civilization here."
"Shurorororo! What a discovery!"
"These ruins..."
The group gazed at the vast city before them, steeped in history. There was no way they couldn't be shocked.
Even though they had already known about it,
seeing it with their own eyes was still a jolt.
The enormous city wasn't built of skyscrapers like Gold City; in fact, it seemed somewhat primitive. Still, one could make out signs of advanced technology.
But now the sprawling city was empty and desolate.
Time had destroyed much of it, leaving it in a pitiful state.
Even so, its former glory was clear.
"Boss, you were right."
Baccarat was a little excited, her eyes fixed on the seemingly endless ruins of civilization.
"There's no sign of life."
