Almost two thousand years ago, a cavernous abyss was found on a remote island, delighting explorers near and far who had already explored the known world.  A shanty town sprung up on the edge of this abyss, and an explorer caste system was created.  Several layers of the abyss were explored, but people quickly found out that there were unavoidable sicknesses from ascending, similar to "the bend" on deep sea diving.  The farther down one got, the worse the sicknesses get as you ascend. A young orphan named Rico wants nothing more than to become the top explorer, a white whistle. to follow in her mother's footsteps, another white whistle, and discover amazing things inside the abyss.  One day, she comes across a robot boy whom she names Reg, and her desire to explore the depths of the abyss becomes a reality.

In this volume, we have unrelated stories in one: The Kingdom of the Gods, where small Prince Yi Moon is trying to escape assassination and death at the hands of The Living Dead, and Burning Hell, a story of two cannibals exiled to a deserted island battling it out to see who gets to carve the other up.  In The Kingdom of the Gods,  we travel with three rag-tag people to a city of doctors, only to find out that a plague turning corpses into zombies is raging through the land.  The prince is determined to figure out how this started, and at the end of the volume, we are left with him fleeing the city, vowing to come back and cure everyone.  In Burning Hell, our two criminals have a distinct appetite.  One is a skilled doctor who likes to slowly cut people apart.  The other is a raving cannibal determined to eat the "good" doctor.  Then, after an absurd time jump leaves us without resolution during their big battle, pirates show up to make their sacrifice of a holy young virgin to the Loa gods in order to amass more power.  This turns in to a three-way battle for who gets the girl for their own purpose, and the story ends with two still embattled.

Gabimaru is a reluctant but skilled and nearly indestructible ninja.  He is sentenced to be executed, which is no easy thing.  They try boiling him, burning at the stake, and various other tactics, before he gets recruited for a suicide mission: to find the Elixir of Life on a mysterious island.  So far, all missions the shogunate has sent to the island have resulted in total loss of life, so why not send a rag-tag, cutthroat group of murderers on death row?  Each criminal is assigned a baby-sitter in the form of elite executioners, just to keep them from wandering off.  The prize for the one who finds the Elixir? A full pardon!
