 Oh book fiends, this volume is hands-down my favorite so far! We dive right back into the port town where the Green Dragon resides, and the story only gets more gripping from there. Meeting his pirate captain was such a treat, and Yona’s quest to gather senju herbs to heal the crew added depth to her determination. The plan to take down Officer Kim Ji and his horrible acts brought so much intensity to the plot.

Yona’s heart-to-heart with Captain Gi Gan? Absolutely breathtaking—I actually shed a tear. Watching Yona grow into the leader she aspires to be is such a rewarding journey. Her empathy and selflessness ripple through everyone around her, making her an inspiring and magnetic character.

And now, for the highlight of the volume: CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CHECK MY VITAL SIGNS AFTER THE HONEY SCENE?! Hak, I’m begging you to chill—for all our sakes (especially poor Yona’s, because that girl is not ready for your intensity)! 😂

This series is truly something special, and I can’t wait to see what’s next for Yona and her crew.
