to keep this distance.

Blimey! It's even bigger than a mountain!

We have to circle around!

Not so fast.

The rocking's making me queasy.

What the hell are you saying if he doesn't like his mother's cooking?

He didn't say that.

There's no need to worry. It's just a slight breeze.

Be careful.

A little water never hurt anyone.

Full speed ahead.

Santa Madonna.

Mr. Delcano.

Lower the sails.

I won't make his house alive.

I won't dance with him. My name is Antonio Pigafetta, the king for notary.

Listen up, sir notary. We'll make it to the port on time, just like I promised.

Whoa, we've got to lose it.

Grab the ship's wheel.

Santa Madonna, we're going to sink.

Nothing to worry about.

Not in a million years would I allow you to become fish food.

I give you my word as captain.

Captain?

Serious boy.

Elcano, you are no captain. You're an unthoughtful brute.

Captain unthoughtful.

Captain unthoughtful. Serious unthoughtful.

Thank you. I'll be here all week.

De Guado, I'll keep here. Told you so.

You'll get the CV on time.

Get them onto the boat!

I'll take any charity, madam.

Today's deal!

I'll read two fortunes for the price of one.

Oh, wow. Where could everyone be going in this blazing heat?

I've never seen Sevilla this lively.

Hey, sir, with this tiny rosemary leaf, I can predict your joy and grief. Sorry,

lassie. I'm running on empty myself.

I'm sailing out tomorrow.

Make way for the Admiral.

Huh?

Oh, who could he be?

The guy with the limp is Ferdinand Magellan, the navigator. The Portuguese?

Oh, Magellan is recruiting men for his voyage. I hope he takes my husband with

him. Mr. Magellan, for one's a bloom, with this rosemary leaf, I can redo your

fortune. You wretched girl. Stop bothering the Admiral.

Hey. Oh, my goodness.

say he's a handsome fellow in his air devil. He's a vicious lad, and if he's

limping so, it's because the Arabs destroyed his leg.

The poor admiral.

Sir Magellan, how about some charity for a crippled sea dog?

Why, thank you, noble sir.

Oh, they're made of gold.

He just handed me gold coins.

Gold!

Wherever he goes, his Indian fellow from the Maluku Islands follows.

Has he ever been?

Magellan has been everywhere. They say the devil himself showed him a map of

world.

Look,

he's right over there. Is he a good of a navigator, as they say?

He's the best. He's so accustomed to the swaying of a ship at sea that while

he's on land, he can't pee standing up.

We still don't know the route we'll take.

When's that notary lad getting here?

Highland, or I'll kick you out of the line.

Well, hurry it up, then. We're flying out here.

Why aren't you gathering the crew already?

Sir Gomez.

Sir Pigafetta, the king's notary, hasn't arrived yet, Captain.

Looks like the voyage is off to a good start.

I can tell you where he is if you'd like. Mr. Magellan, would you like me to

read your fortune?

There's no need.

We know what's waiting.

We're off to the Maluka Islands for spices.

Get out of here, you vermin!

Stop bothering the Admiral!

But, uh...

Wouldn't you like to know how your expedition will turn out? What is your

Inez.

Good Inez.

Maybe you should give Captain Cartagena back his belongings.

Where's my pouch?

It probably fell.

You little thing. It wasn't me. Strange things happen in Sevilla all the time. I

swear it. Would you like a rosemary leaf and some? Calm down, Cartagena. She's

but a young lass.

And now my good captains and I would be interested in knowing just what's

waiting for us in this voyage. I'll be here.

Just know that the rosemary leaf doesn't make mistakes about the future.

Come on, tell us. Will we have fair winds, lassie? Be at ease, everybody.

You'll make it back home. And they'll be talking about this voyage for a very

long time.

Yeah! Aye, aye!

Where do I sign up?

Portugal, I forbid you from sailing out.

We're on orders from King Carlos from Castile, Mr. Ambassador.

You know full well you're not allowed in the Maluku Islands.

The only route into the Cape of Storms is owned by none other than Portugal.

That's very true.

The route to the east is Portuguesa. That being so, Portuguese ships are the

only ones allowed to bring spices into Europe. So you can sell them for

outrageous prices.

You're a bunch of pirates.

We are merchants.

However, we won't be taking the Portuguesa route.

We will look for a new route to the west. But that's impossible.

No way. There's no way. Admiral, can you explain this matter? There is no route

to the west. All you will find is death.

Or glory.

I promise to take you to the Spice Islands.

Are you with me?

I don't know.

I'm sure that Mr. Magellan knows how to get there.

Sign me up.

The kingdom of Spain has as much right as Portugal to have commerce with the

Maluku Islands.

Say it with me. To the islands!

To the islands!

To the islands!

You ungrateful traitor of a man, Magellan.

The route to the Spice Islands is ours.

The seas have no owner, senior ambassador.

And now, if you'll excuse me, I have a lot of work left.

We will leave port tomorrow.

Let's get on board, Enrique.

We have a voyage to plan.

You'll never get to the island.

I swear it.

Be careful, Ambassador.

Being that angry will catch up to you.

Rosemary! Who wants to buy some rosemary?

Good morning, my good sir. Those ships can't get to their destination.

You have to get ready and gather information.

About the route Magellan is taking?

If that presumptuous fool has a map with a route to the west, bring it to me.

If you manage to, I'll shower you with gold.

Hmm, it sounds like a complicated mission.

Hmm. I'll need a little bit more to be persuaded.

All right, fine.

Here.

I'm not persuaded. You're a good spy, but you are too expensive.

You know full well that you can confide in me, Mr. Ambassador.

There's a boat entering the dock at great speed.

Huh? Look there. There where?

Let's go.

Move out of the way.

Señor Elcano.

My name's Antonio. I know.

Antonio Pigafetta, the king's own notary.

He's definitely got a loose screw.

Go slower, por favor.

Blimey, look there.

Take a look. There he goes, that one Sebastian Elcano.

Who? Who was that?

Only he'd come into the port that recklessly.

Be careful, Garadon. There isn't enough space for them all.

What are they doing?

You're going to crash into the port.

We can make it.

Is he mad?

They're going to crash.

You can do it.

Yeah, I have it under control.

I'm going to kill him still.

He's a great pilot.

Look, are you...

You great fat man is nothing but a savage.

The lad's got a loose screw.

Think he's any good?

Sorry about that, sir notary.

Oh, my.

How handsome.

Would you like to know your fortune, sir?

No need for formality.

Can you tell me my future?

I can see without a doubt.

Some tail time.

Good day.

Are you Juan Sebastian Ocano?

The one and only.

Your boat is confiscated in the name of the king.

And ours as well.

He owes us a lot of money.

I told you I'd pay you back.

Nothing but empty words. Empty words.

You should have paid your debt months ago and you haven't done it. It's time

pay, good luck. No, the ship is my only means of work.

Do you have any other property to repay your debts to us? I have nothing but

this ship to my name. But if you can wait until I make another voyage with

goods... Wait a minute.

The notary's journey.

You're crazy. If you think I'll pay you, Elcano, you nearly sank your own boat

on the way here and me with it.

I beg you, grant me some more time.

I promise to pay my debts. I've had enough of waiting.

Continue with your duties, Marshal. Good. The boat belongs to us now.

As for you...

You're arrested.

In your dream.

Halt in the name of the king.

Arrest him.

Halt. I'll have you pay for that, Missy. Just you wait.

He's escaping.

Run away, Walt Sebastian.

It was about time.

Ah, come on.

Hurry up.

He's taking a sweet time.

We don't have all day.

I'm going as fast as my hands allow.

Juan de Lombardia.

Freeman of the Trinity.

I lost him.

Wait, what's that noise?

Stay right there. You're mine.

Oh, you have no escape.

He has to be around.

Hey, he's over there. Hold still.

I've got you now.

I think not. Where do you think you're going, you permanent? We can do this the

easy way or the hard way.

You'll pay for all the damage that you've caused.

Come back here.

Where are you?

Where have you run off to, Furman? We'll find you eventually. Count on it.

How will I get down from here without getting caught?

You won't be able to. Again?

Planning on going somewhere? You won't catch me that easily.

Ah! Ah!

Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!

Ah! Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

I'll come down now.

Hurry up! Hurry up! If you sign up for the expedition, they won't be able to

imprison you.

What expedition?

Magellan's, of course.

The Portuguese Admiral?

Time me up for the trip. Juan Sebastian Elcano.

Senor Elcano, you're a wild beast.

The Captain Magellan doesn't want wild beasts on board.

What he wants is a... Great mariners.

Always that are capable of sailing a ship in the midst of tempests with their

eyes closed.

Looks like you're in luck. Make me a captain.

I wouldn't trust you navigating a canoe, my boy.

You heard the Admiral.

Who's up next?

Senor Pegafetta.

Please make Senor Elcano the quartermaster of the Contepso under the

Captain John de Cartagena. What?

I don't want that boy anywhere near my ship.

He'd sink her before even setting sail.

There's not a tempest that can sink the ship I navigate.

Elcano, you are hereby detained in the name of the king.

Marshal, Juan Sebastian Elcano is the quartermaster of one of the ships in the

king's expedition. You cannot detain him. But...

And now, if you'd please excuse us, tomorrow we have a big day.

I am so sorry, Mr. Marshall, but I'm afraid I simply cannot join your party.

I wouldn't be so happy if I were you.

You're going to have a very difficult voyage left. Wait, why does he hate me?

doesn't even know me.

I know exactly how he feels.

Intuition is everything, you know.

Iago, cabin boy of the conception.

Hey, cabin boy, isn't there something else, perhaps?

One Sebastian.

I'll set off with you in tomorrow's voyage.

I'm happy to hear that, lad. We have a couple hours left.

And we'll be spending them doing something of utmost importance.

Is this really it?

That's where cloves come from.

You mean something that small is worth sailing to the other side of the world

for? In the Spice Islands, there's more than just cloves. You can also get

cinnamon and pepper. Without them, food wouldn't taste the same.

For a shipment like that, of course it's worth going there.

It's even worth crossing the Cape of Storms. So you say you've been there?

Twice, Mace.

And I'm alive and kicking. Tradition goes that for every time you cross the

of Storms, you pierce your ear.

You can't consider yourself a true sailor until you've done it. Well, he

done it. And for your information, he's the real deal. Only a fool who's never

sailed those waters can run their mouth like that.

Who here's ever been in the Cape of Storms? I survived.

I died from afar. Does that count?

Someone as feeble and puny as you has done it twice. I don't think the voyage

that dangerous.

Are you calling me weak?

If Magellan wasn't taking us in the opposite direction, I'd show you what I

mean.

You'd better watch your tongue.

How dare you insult me?

You tell them, babe. You guys sure made a mess.

Hot enough.

Hurry up, Carpenter.

The sun's about to rise. The water leak was pretty big.

Mr.

The Carpenter.

Yago, but what on earth happened?

I already infiltrated the ship's rank.

What do you have for me? No one knows anything about Magellan's infamous map.

But it's a voyage so long that it wouldn't be a surprise if something were

happen to the Admiral.

Not a bad idea. This is more dangerous than I originally thought.

I will be waiting in the Maluku Islands, just in case something happens.

You won't be coming along for the ride, sir. Are you crazy?

I'll go through the known route.

Leave it as it is, carpenter. Get out of here.

We need to sail as soon as possible.

Please, let me finish the repair, sir. I'm begging you. The ship will brave the

seas. We don't have more time.

I bet so, everybody.

We have to sail to the Spice Islands without delay.

All hands on deck. Under full sail.

Ropes away.

No, let's get moving.

Sevilla. Oh, I will miss you.

Where's that head of yours, Sir O 'Connell?

Huh? What?

Take a look at the deck.

Huh? All your men are slacking off. Is that how you plan to run a ship? You

heard what the captain said.

Let's get to work. Our captain's nothing but a party pooper.

If he hears you, he'll be stuck in the building. Huh? What's that? Come here.

I'll give you a black eye. We have a stowaway, Captain. Go with me already.

Release her. She just came to say goodbye.

She likes you. I didn't get a chance to tell you your fortune yesterday.

All I want to know is if I'll be able to navigate a ship again.

I can see adventure, and I see... love.

But being a captain is the only thing on my mind. You're so handsome.

And what's this for?

The rosemary leaf will give you luck on your voyage.

And maybe even make you captain.

You can return it when you come back. When you come back.

Thank you, but I'll be a while before then.

I'll wait for you.

Juan Sebastian Alcano.

Captain. Do we have to wait much longer for you to take your station? No, sir.

I'm well prepared, Captain.

Weigh the anchor.

Ropes away!

Raise the sails. The main mass is forward.

off to the islands.

Watch the ship's course. We have to use these winds in our favor. I'm going to

be watching you closely.

Don't even think about pulling the stunts you're known for. You won't have

complaints, sir. I'll make sure of it.

Under full sail!

Under full sail!

Captain,

I'm sorry if I scared you.

Are you okay? You presumptuous bilge rat! You're going to be the lookout

tonight, sir.

I hope you don't take a nap.

He hates me.

The Maluku Islands.

They're very rich lands, Admiral, but unreachable by navigating westward, sir.

If you consider our world to be that way, the Maluku Islands are obviously

of reach. But there are other ways to perceive reality.

What do you mean, other ways? You're talking nonsense. What are you referring

to? Please, allow me.

So the savage knows how to speak our tongue. I am no savage, good sir.

In the islands, my home, there are no savages.

Enrique will serve as our interpreter when we get to his land. If we look at

this way, the Spice Islands are at the reach of anyone who sails to the west.

I don't believe for a second that there's a passage that'll lead us from

to the islands.

They say that the last crew that sought to discover it was turned into an

appetizer for the cannibals. And if I were to tell all of you I'm completely

sure this passage exists, would you believe me?

There are rumors about a secret map in your possession with said route.

Is it true?

Well, in that case, it should continue to be a secret.

The Portuguese would give anything to get their hands on it. Oh, I'm sorry.

You're Portuguese yourself, Admiral.

Yes, I am. However, I serve the young King Carlos from Castile. He has given

command of this flotilla. Keep that in mind.

Well, in that case, if I really am loyal to Spain, why don't you show us the map

with the route? We are your captains, after all. We need to know it to ease

our worries.

That won't be necessary.

The five ships will always be sailing together in a line, one after the other.

Men out, the Trinity will go in front, and the rest will follow her.

So no one but you will know where we're going?

That plan is completely insane. What's going to happen when night falls? The

ships will get lost at sea.

Every single night, I will turn on this lantern to guide the ship closest to us.

And in turn, that ship will light their lantern to guide the next ship. And so

on and so on. You can trust me. We won't get lost.

These stars are very different from my lens.

Soon they won't be.

Hmm. It's getting hard to see.

Night is falling. Light the lantern in the stern so that the other ships can

follow us.

We'll do it at once, my admiral. Come with me.

There it is.

Look, the Trinity lit their lantern.

Let's do the same.

See that? They're shooting stars.

I need some shut -eye.

I had better get some rest. Go ahead. I'll take over.

You look wide awake, Sir Elcano.

Aye, my captain.

Then you'll have the pleasure of being lookout tomorrow and the day after

tomorrow. Thank you, my captain.

I'm looking at the captain's favorite soldier. I need to navigate the ship

already. The only thing I've ever wanted to be was a captain. The ship has a

captain already, and he despises you.

Good luck being the lookout, Captain.

If they'd only put me in charge, I'd make this ship sail like never before.

And so, we kept navigating the oceans westward, following a route unknown to

everyone.

To the Admiral Magellan.

The stool, please.

Here you go, sir. Please be careful. Obrigado, my loyal Enrique.

Let's see.

Here's the compass, sir.

Soon we'll be in the Indians of America.

It's been five days now. We're navigating blindly, fearing for Nostra

It looks like we've entered an eternal maelstrom.

Shouldn't we lower the sails, O 'Connell?

You want me to lower the sails?

There's no need. This is nothing. It's just a slight breeze.

This is my chance to prove to Magellan that I'm a worthy captain.

You'll be on lookout duty until the Spice Island if Captain Cartagena ever

up. Keep steady on the course. Are the other ships following?

I see something.

Yes, there they are, Admiral.

And the one closing in on us? That's a conception, sir.

That arrogant boy, Elcano, is going too fast for the waters.

Hey, I'm so dizzy.

Write down that we've had five days of nothing but storm.

I already did, Admiral.

I think we've picked up too much wind.

We're going to crash.

We'll just have to dodge them. In the name of Jolly Roger, what's happening

here? What are we doing so close to the Admiral's ship?

You're going to sink the ship.

Told you. Now you'll see a real storm through.

Look at that.

We've passed the Trinity, Captain.

You intruding fool.

I'll have you pay for this, Sir Elcano. Captain Cartagena.

America.

America? Land ho ahead.

Indians of America.

Just like that, after 60 days of rain and storm, we arrived to the beaches of

Brazil, where all types of provisions are plentiful.

while in Brazil.

For a hook or a knife, they'd give a five or six of their own hens. Two geese

for a comb.

For the tiniest of mirrors, or even a pair of scissors, we'd have enough fish

and water to feed ten of our fessori.

The heads of their natives were adorned with feathers who looked to belong to

strange and colorful birds inhabiting the area.

I told you that sailing westward wasn't a big deal.

There's no helping you, is there?

The generosity and sympathy of these savages made us feel like we're right

home.

In spite of all the communication problems, we made ourselves understood

silly and sometimes funny Jess Cheris.

What was that urgent matter you wanted to attend to, Sir Cartagena?

As you all know, from now onwards, we'll be charting unknown territory. Isn't

that so?

As soon as we stock up on provisions.

Everybody here is a good captain, but are you all sure that we could keep

navigating without knowing the route?

If we continue to sail blindly behind the Admiral, we will end up getting

Wait a minute. What exactly are you proposing, Cartagena?

We need to demand that Sir Magellan hand over his map to us.

Sir, are you suggesting we should rise up against the Admiral?

Well, if he's trying to turn us into fish food.

Up until now, Magellan's system has been working flawlessly.

What's so wrong about him leading the way?

Mutiny is a serious matter.

We should be doubly sure beforehand.

Are you okay with waiting a while, Captain Cartagena?

Don't make it too long.

Magellan is Portuguese after all, right?

Are all of you sure that he's not secretly working against me?

We continue

our voyage to the south, traveling on the coast to unknown seas.

The closer

we got to the months of summer, The colder

the winds blew our way, which made no sense to us at all.

And with the cold, the fog came as well.

The nebulous gray mantle grew thicker with the passing days, thick enough to

envelop the ships.

The seafarer's faces turned to fright and uncertainty.

Do you think we're in summer or we're in winter? What do you say? That it's a

cold summer winter, I suppose.

Where I'm from, this is what we call a winter.

And a good one, too.

I just don't get it. If we're really in summer, why is it getting colder by the

day? That's because we've crossed the equator, Captain.

The more southward we sail... What is that thing you just mentioned? The quick

-waiter?

Never mind. You wouldn't understand.

What exactly do you mean when you say I wouldn't understand?

Admiral,

there's a wide canal right in front of us.

The passage to the Maluku Island. Could that be the passage that we're

looking for?

Oh, fairway.

It can't be happening.

Inform the conceptions that they may explore the canal. Got it, sir.

Explore the canal!

You

can't

see where it is?

What do you think, Ben?

It doesn't seem to be a channel.

I'm fairly certain it leads nowhere.

Parker, hold on to the wheel.

Excuse me, Captain.

Yago, the bucket! This bucket is mine! Good idea, lad.

What's going on?

What could they be up to?

There's too much fog ahead, Admiral. Not to worry. I will write it all on paper.

We can't see anything.

It's fresh water.

It's a river. It's not the passage we're looking for.

Oh, my. How unfortunate, isn't it?

Well, I knew that we wouldn't be able to get anywhere without a darn map.

Sir El Cato, go across and board the Trinity and inform the Admiral of the

news. Aye, aye at once, Captain.

You guys heard him.

Let's turn the ship around.

Be sure to put your heart into it.

This is an opportunity to get warmed up.

Yago, prepare another boat. I have to speak with the other captains. Aye,

Captain.

Quickly. Throw down a Jacob's Ladder.

Thank you. You can wait for me here.

I have bad news, Admiral.

What have you discovered, boy?

That's not a passage.

It's just a river.

A river.

Tell me, what are your orders, Admiral?

Give me a moment.

You heard what he said.

That can't be it.

Come on, row faster.

At this rate, we'll never get there.

You all were right.

We're going in blind.

Magellan needs to show us the map with the route.

Let's see.

Everyone's distracted.

That one's on the boat, too.

Perfect.

I have to find out what the captains are up to.

Every day I grow more and more worried about our situation.

Has it occurred to anyone that perhaps there is no such map?

That'd mean we're lost at sea.

If the map truly doesn't exist, we'll turn the ships around and return back

home. I see no other resolution.

Does anyone oppose?

If that's the case, I'll give you the signal when the time is right.

Let's leave this here. We'll go back to our ships for now.

I can't take this anymore.

I'm going to speak with the admiral.

Carlton, stop.

I want to see the admiral. What are you doing?

You're but a brutal cannon.

My good sir.

Are you all right, sir?

You're a baldy. And so what? I'm bald.

Your hat's unusually warm.

Well, I just hate it when my head gets cold. I'm sorry, my admiral.

It doesn't matter.

What are your orders, sir?

We keep sailing south.

We kept navigating southward through such harsh conditions that we needed to

stop at a port to spend the winter.

Hey, look!

Huge chunks of ice!

Yeah, those are huge!

It looks to be fire.

Those are bonfires, Admiral. It's incredible they can keep them burning.

now on, we will name this coast Tierra de Fogo.

I'll write it immediately.

Why do the natives do that? Why else plan to endure this harsh winter?

We spent five months unable to move.

At the time, it seemed like winter would never have a fin.

this cold is unbearable. This winter is never -ending.

I believe the winter is almost over, my Admiral. Thankfully, you're right. We

have to keep sailing southward, Enrique. I have the feeling the passage is

somewhere near.

The unusual winter had taken a toll on the crew.

He's not looking too well.

I've had enough.

Let's put an end to this.

Lower a boat for your captain, Sir O 'Connell. Did something happen?

Stop asking questions. Just follow orders.

Just a moment. Just where are we going, Captain? Stop questioning me!

Hmm. We're going to the Trinity. I don't like the looks of this.

Stop what you're doing.

Nobody move.

From now onward, we'll be taking charge of the ship.

Would you like me to write it down?

Out the way. I'll take the helm.

Come on.

Let's go get Magellan.

Hey, what's the plan?

Follow orders for now.

Stop it. You move and it'll be the last thing you ever do, slave.

This better be a joke.

Admiral Magellan, you are our prisoner. Have you all gone insane?

I am the admiral of this flotilla.

Look, Paco. They took the Admiral hostage.

Come on. Let's go inside.

Oh, I finally found it. I found Magellan's map.

But the map is only logged with the route we navigated. There's no

What kind of trickery is this, Magellan? Where are you keeping the real map?

It's all in my head.

Things are about to get real messy.

What are you saying, Admiral? You never had a map.

Every day, I write down the route that we'll be navigating. I promise that

morning I'll inform you of the route we'll be taking.

Stop it, you savages. We can't allow there to be a mutiny on board.

What's going on? Lower your weapons, everyone.

I do not want to see a bloodshed.

I said to lower your weapons, sailor.

All right, let's do as the Admiral says.

I'm begging you. Please return to your duty. Well, in that case... It's a tad

late for that, sir. Now we all know that there was never a map nor a passage to

the Maluku Islands.

But Shetland is crazy.

Surely he will get us all killed.

We are going back to bed.

Let's wave the anchors, Sir O 'Connell.

What do you think, Admiral?

I'm the only Admiral now.

We'll do as you say.

Look here, we can't go back home with Magellan alive or we'll be chastised.

Let me go!

Never mind, I'll take care of it. We're navigating too close to the coast!

We're going to get dragged in! Be careful!

Admiral, the ships are getting quite dangerously close to the coast.

waters are way too rough for us to endure. We're putting our men in

danger.

There's nothing we could do.

Evo, prepare the boats. We have to send them out. Let's go.

All of the crew is drowning and the rest of the ship may end up sinking. Do

something.

Everybody get back to your ship.

Follow my orders at once.

Save everyone you possibly can and be careful with the current.

We're headed straight for the cliffs.

The current is pulling our ship in as well. We have to think of something.

There's a narrow channel ahead, sir. A narrow channel.

Finally, that's the passage we're looking for. I'm completely sure. Trust

captains, I'm begging you.

Magellan is leading us to certain death.

All of us swore loyalty to Magellan and to Spain.

Lower your weapons.

Let him go.

Magellan made a promise to us, and I believe in him.

And so do I.

Me too.

Everybody here will die if we venture into that channel without a map.

Magellan has to die!

Watch my way!

My Admiral, you go ahead and save the ships. I'll take care of myself.

This isn't the time to fight amongst ourselves.

We must save the ships.

I will never hand over command to a Portuguese again.

Neither will I.

Everyone to your stations.

The Admiral's right. Let's save the ships, men.

Enrique, to the van.

I'm at your service, my Admiral. My loyal friend, I feared you died.

I won't be going with you.

Huh?

We'll just have to take control of one of the ships.

The San Antonio is the closest one.

We're arresting you, Captain.

How dare you put your little filthy hands on me!

This was a big mistake.

And my crew paid the ultimate price for it.

Come on, get on with it. Aren't you coming?

I think it's best if I stay.

I'd never be able to betray my admiral, of course.

Mamma mia! Stop them from leaving! They're deserting us! We'll go back to

Sevilla.

Let them be.

We have no need for traitors amongst us.

What about him?

What'll you have us do with him?

End up with the bloodshed. Leave him in a boat so he can make his way to the

coast. Maybe he'll survive.

What are your orders, sir?

There's no time to lose. Go back to your ships.

My ship's got no captain.

Put me in command.

Senor Serrano will be your new captain.

Aye. I'm at your service, Captain.

You savages!

Everyone who follows Magellan will meet their maker!

As we sailed deeper into what seemed to be a natural canal, uncertainty spread

into the hearts of the crew. The scenery changed completely.

And the cliffs and bluffs demonstrated their grandeur and also their

dangerousness. Sir, the current here is stronger. That's perfect, Talisman. Be

on your toes.

It's colossal.

I should have ran when I got the chance.

Not even in my worst nightmares would I have imagined a place like this.

You should stop and visit the Cape of Storms sometimes.

If even worse than this.

We're staying on course.

There has to be open sea on the other side.

Madonna, I hope you're right.

Careful!

My men, be careful! Take cover!

Getting through these cliffs will be impossible.

We'll make it through.

And if we don't get through?

Hang on tight, men.

The Trinity is stuck.

I don't think we're going to make it.

They're going to charge us.

Enrique, we finally made it through.

We've discovered a passage into the sea they'll now call the Sea of the South.

Let's head to the island.

Now known as the South Sea.

Elcano, what's got you so down in the dumps?

Here. You steer the ship.

This time I nearly sank, or only way back. You did a great job.

Better than anyone.

You'll be a great captain soon enough.

Halfway through the passage, I feared for my life.

And here I thought I was brave enough to get through the cape of storms.

Everyone was scared to death.

If anything today, you've learned how valuable prudence is. It's a good lesson

indeed. Now you're more likely to get us all back home in one piece.

What's the holdup?

Steer the wheel.

It is the 20th of November. We left the canal which led us to a great ocean, to

which we immediately gave the name the Pacific.

Because we navigated in its vast size for three months and 20 days without

having a single bite to eat. Tell me, have you ever seen a sea so peaceful?

Have I? Never, lad.

It's like this ocean is never -ending.

Almost four months without seeing land.

Right now we have over 25 sick sailors, my admiral. And we'll have many more

than that if we don't find provision soon.

We should be very close by now.

Where in the hell are you, Maluku Island?

So as to not die from hunger, we were forced to eat pieces of leather and

sawdust. The bread loaves that were left were no more than dust mixed with

worms. And the water, too, was spoiled. It made us all sick.

Hey, um, do you happen to have any leather left?

Food was so scarce.

Rats became a delicacy. So much so, they were worth half of the blue.

Hey, what are these? Flying rats!

Huh? Are we seeing flying fish?

Miraculously, food fell from the sky at a wit's end.

There's land!

Huh? There's land in sight!

It's land, Paco! Land!

Could it be the Spice Islands?

All hands be prepared to disembark.

I'm not familiar with their tongue. Then these are not the Maluku Islands, are

they, Enrique? I am the Admiral Magellan, and I salute you.

Who do you think he's calling Samar? I don't know, but there's no way we'll be

able to talk with him.

The king says that you're all welcome to the island of Cebu.

You know how to speak our tongue?

I learned in the Maluku Islands. They aren't too far from here.

He's asking if you're Portuguese men.

No, we come in the name of the king of Castile.

What's he saying?

He says that every ship that enters Cebu has to pay a tariff to its king.

A tariff?

We have an important mission to fulfill. There's no way we'll be paying any

tariffs to port in an island, senor.

Well, we're not people. We're gods.

Touch. Look.

My, what do you mean, gods? I don't think anyone would dare charge gods for

tariffs.

What?

What did he say?

He says that in that case, the gods will have to pay double.

This is outright wrong.

Why, I'd never.

All right, Senor Elcano, do you have any other bright ideas?

Um, offer him a present. The king really seems to like the notary's tunic. But

why? Why should it be my tunic? Don't be so stingy. I'm sure you have another

tunic back in the ship.

He says that there are good tariffs to have, really good tariffs at that.

Mamma mia, the savages of these islands are enamored with taxes just as much as

a king or an archbishop from our kingdom.

In my opinion, it's blasphemy. The present was a great idea.

I congratulate you. Thank you, Admiral.

Senors, maintain a good relationship with the natives in the meantime.

We're going to be staying here a few more days.

I hope that girl Samar comes quickly. We have no idea what he's saying.

Look, here they come.

Hey, there she is.

Oh, my beautiful lady.

My respect.

He

says

that the king of the neighboring island, Maktan, never pays him his tariffs.

That king is a dangerous enemy to us, and he'd like to know if he would be

willing to help us defeat them in battle. Tell him that if he provides us

good helmsmen that can guide us to the Maluku Islands, we'll help him out.

And who do you suppose that guide will be?

I'm sure he'll be nothing less than a heartless pirate.

Uh, surely you're just joking around.

After all, sir, I don't think that she could... Shh, Elcano.

It'd be enough if you could just give us directions.

Well, here, men aren't the only ones who sail the ocean.

I'll give you the directions you need. You can find the enemy of my people that

way, boy.

so you don't like jewelry.

Oh, you guys are naked. Do you want some clothes?

Please don't hurt me.

A pair of almost brand -new shoes, socks with pretty good ventilation, this

lovely dry shirt, a pair of pants with the finest fabric in Spain.

My skivvies?

Oh, sad no.

Skivvies! Skivvies. You like them, huh?

Well, then, hear me out.

The time has finally come.

Everyone, to the boat!

Have all the men put on their armor, just in case.

Be careful, then.

Follow me. Be on the lookout.

Proceed with caution.

Something is going on here.

I don't like how quiet this place is. There's no one here.

Where do you think the natives are?

It's way too quiet to be calm.

We've been betrayed!

They were waiting to ambush us, Admiral.

We load your bugger buses, man.

Bogo!

Why didn't you keep your helmet on Admiral?

Captain Serrano is falling! Admiral! On the boats, men!

We have no choice but to flee!

Wait for our admiral!

Admiral! Admiral!

Time is time!

I should make you walk the plank.

We lost a lot of men because of you, you traitor.

I didn't know such thing. It was all those cannibals. Yeah? If Yago's a

he'll walk the plank.

Hold on for now. We'll lock him away until we get back home. And there we'll

hand him to the authorities.

You idiots.

All of you are delusional.

You'll never get to the Maluku Island.

You're all morons. Without Magellan's map, all of you are lost at sea.

They're lost?

Had I been with him, maybe I could have saved him.

This is all my fault. I should have gone with you.

You did everything you could for Magellan.

What matters most now is that the injured get proper treatment.

You're right, Pocket.

We have to take care of them. We need provision.

We should get to the Maluku Island as soon as possible. I will take you there.

Samar is the best sailor we have on board. Then it's settled.

Today she proved it.

We'll get you back home, I promise you.

We need to get to the Maluku Islands quickly. The injured men can't wait.

What are you guys waiting for? For a captain to give his men orders?

Who here agrees that Elcano should be our captain?

Elcano the captain!

If the admiral gave it to you, it's because he thought that you should wear

He's the captain once again.

Our fate is in your hands.

You'll be my right -hand man.

Do you think the Conception can keep sailing?

Impossible. The Savage has made a huge hole in the ship. It's unsaleable.

Then I'll put myself in charge of the victory. And Captain Espinosa will take

the Trinity.

Attention!

We're moving everything to the victory.

I hope we get to the Maluku Islands soon.

Boy, do I need to take a cough already.

This rosemary branch did make me into a captain after all.

We had to leave behind the Conception, leaving us with only two ships from the

original five which we left Sevilla with. The exhausted and decimated crew

wanted to get to the islands of the Spices, the Maluku Islands.

Get ready to set sail.

Weigh the anchors.

Everything's ready.

Hoist the sails to the Spice Islands.

There. I'm sorry.

Hark the starboard!

Look. Oh.

Oh.

You're silly.

Don't need to worry, notary. We'll get to the Maluku Islands soon.

Land ho!

Finally, the Spice Islands!

Land ho!

The Spice and the Wave!

Yo -ho -ho! Yeah!

Maluku Islands!

We're finally here.

We arrived at Maluku Island the 7th of November, Anno Domini, 1521.

The crew, who was used to the monotonous life at sea and weary from extreme

weather and hardships, were fascinated with the surrounding greenery, the

of the streets, and the majestic buildings.

Above all, the luxurious palace of King Almanzor.

Both Almanzor and his son welcome you here. He says that a long time ago he

dreamt of your arrival.

He wants to know our intentions here. What possessed you to make such a long

trip? Tell him that we come here in the name of the King of Spain, and we've

come here to make trade.

It makes him very happy to have commerce with the Spaniards.

From now on, this island will be named in your honor. It is our honor as well.

The port in the city of Tidore, the capital of the Maluku Islands, was a

continuous come and go of people who carried rich and valuable goods

in giant carts.

Mr. Pigafetta, there's 380 bales of cloves and 100 of cinnamon.

A hundred bales of cinnamon?

Did you say a hundred of them? Why, that's a fortune.

This many spices are worth a million doubloons.

Cloves, cinnamon, even nutmeg. Are you sure that our ships will be able to

that much weight? No idea.

Sir Elcano.

Are they your family?

Mm -hmm.

You should be on your way. The Portuguese government considers the

Islands theirs, and they could be arriving at any moment.

We're going to have to start loading those ships faster.

I think we should listen to Mr. Elcano.

Get moving. Let's load up the ship.

What route will we follow? Would it be wise to sail back the same way we came?

That route is way too long to sail again. What do you propose?

I think we should keep heading west.

Now we're aware that the Earth is round.

I'm sure we'll make it back home faster.

I won't be much help this time around.

I'm unfamiliar with the waters that'll take you to Europe.

The Spaniards are crazy.

Always going west with no map.

They're all insane.

Spy silence ahead.

Muito bem.

Tomorrow at sunrise we'll be in port.

You've been quiet lately.

Is everything okay?

If you need any help... Maybe.

I've been away from home for too long.

Why don't you stay then?

Should I stay?

There's plenty of sea to sail here. We could go on incredible expeditions

together.

But I have a debt I need to pay to this ship.

I need to take it back home. My men need me with them.

I need you, Juan Sebastian.

I'm very sorry.

Then why don't you get on your stupid ship and leave already? Don't bother

coming back.

What? It's always the same story. I'm no ladies' man.

I'm a nice guy, and nice guys never get the girl of their dreams. No matter.

We'll have to set sail tomorrow without a map.

I don't know what to do.

Promise her you'll come back. Do the right thing.

That's what you have to do.

Are you gonna put cargo in this tiny room?

I refuse!

You such a trap, you sneaky bilge rat!

From now on, we'll be solely navigating in Portuguese waters.

We won't be able to make stopovers. They'd imprison us. That'd be the end of

journey. We can't be imprisoned.

We have to carry as many provisions as we possibly can.

As well as the spices, of course.

Some more.

Captain Elcano, all of the cargo is good to go.

Captain, are you there?

Hoist the sails.

There's a leak in the ship.

Sit there without us, Elcano. No worries. We'll help you repair your

Captain! Captain Elcano! The Portuguese will be docking in the port very soon.

If they find you, they'll imprison everyone.

The king says he'll take your friends under his care. I'll be staying with

Quickly, weigh the anchors.

Tighten up the mainsail a bit more.

Wait for me.

Wait up. Come on, Sebastian.

Samar! You need to know how to turn the difficult cape. The Cape of Storms? To

get through that cape. Keep your distance from the coat, or the tide will

you in. But never lose its sight. Not once.

Okay, I won't. Now that I've told you.

Come back.

I'll come back.

I promise you.

West Wing of Apoco.

You should be happy now, Juan Sebastian. We were able to escape.

Write that down, Mr. Pigafetta.

I'll write down everything.

Presto. She loved me, so I guess I should be happy.

Don't you worry, mate.

You'll see her again.

In the next several months, we voyaged islands and seas where people, animals,

and plants of all sizes and colors lived. And again...

We saw ourselves in an immense ocean where provision were scarce.

The last loaf of bread and the last bit of cheese.

At least we have food left.

Drink and eat slowly, mate, or you may fool your stomachs.

But this cheese has more holes than the socks I'm wearing.

I don't even have enough strength left to get to the ship's shroud.

This isn't edible. It's disgusting.

I'd rather eat my socks full of holes.

We need actual food.

That myth tells me there's land ahead.

Cabin boy, climb on the mast and take a look. Aye, aye, Captain.

Captain! The cave restores!

There's no time to waste. All hands on deck.

The time has finally come to see if we're meant to be real sailors.

Help me turn her quickly.

We're in shallow water.

Be careful. We're surrounded by rocks.

The ship is going way too fast for us to navigate it. You've become a prudent

lad, Juan Sebastian.

Keep your distance from the coast.

Or the tide will drag you in.

We have to get away from the coast. But never lose its sight. Not once.

Be

careful.

It's getting harder to see ahead.

We'll do our best to keep this distance.

He can exhaust it. What should we do?

Pray, the current is too strong. It's pulling us in.

We have to think of something.

Grab all of the sails. When I give you the signal, let them all out at once.

But we made a last -ditch effort.

And on the 6th of May, we escaped the terrible water.

But despite of the dangers of sailing through Portuguese waters, we continue

voyage to Cape Verde.

of Cape Verde are Portuguese.

We'll have to tread lightly.

Don't you worry. I have a plan. Meanwhile, you get the barrels ready.

Oh, at your service.

Hey, there's something happening up there.

Cape Verde.

Everything will turn out fine.

Taco, keep pretending. And you, smile while you roll. Faster.

Our unusual Spanish ship. They must be lost if they're here.

Their ship must be broken down.

Attention! The governor is here.

He'll know what to do.

What's wrong with you now?

My poor little tummy. I've eaten a month's worth of food.

How is that even possible?

Someone must have mistaken the provisions with the spices and placed

instead. Provisions?

Do I look like I did?

Greetings. I'm the governor of these islands.

Who might you men be?

We're Spaniard sailors, your majestic highness. The thing is, a storm deviated

us from our route and left us without provisions.

And what exactly are you transporting in that specific ship?

Oh, well, we're chock full of... Full of hope. Nothing but hope and faith.

We lost everything to the storm.

You bunch of shipwrecked fellows.

We've been starving for several days, sir.

I see that.

Provide them with food.

For a moment, it occurred to me you might be part of the vanished expedition

the Maluku Islands.

That's such a crazy idea, sir. Everybody knows that the Maluku Islands belong to

Portugal, Your Majesty.

That's a lot of food.

Fred! Bread. Wine.

Cheese. Some help.

We're back from the Maluku Islands.

We're loaded with spices.

Arrest them.

Take as much as you can.

Arrest them. Now, you stay and take a nap.

Slow them down!

We'll hunt them down like rabbits.

Don't fall, Iago.

Hey, you guys from the Portuguese ship. Hey, I'm over here in the main mast.

Mr. Iago, your loyal servant.

Hello? Mr. Dacosta, I'm right here.

That good -for -nothing spy.

Are the cannons ready to fire?

They have to catch us.

Everyone, hoist the sails.

Helmsman, hard to starboard.

They're closing in on us. We're going to be peaceful.

Don't worry.

Elkana will get us out of this. Bogo!

Bogo! Mr. Ambassador, please wait for me.

Oh, I'm sure those big ears of his heard me.

This will be as easy as pie. Not that they'll be having any.

The ship is cutting off their escape route. When I turn them in, I'll be able

return to Portugal.

Wait for me to give you the signal.

Nobody move.

How strange.

Where could they have gone?

I don't get it.

There's no one aboard.

It looks like a ghost ship.

Open fire!

Captain Dacosta, they've engaged fire with the governor's men. How should we

proceed? We'll board their ship.

I thought this would be easy.

Take cover.

Great, lads. They're fleeing.

Governor, should we follow the Spaniards? No, no, no, no, no. This much

excitement is disastrous for my hairdo. Let Dacosta handle it, please.

The governor has stopped following us. Now just one more to go.

As soon as they try to escape, they'll die.

Ah, Mr. DaCosta, they're holding Magellan's map.

No one is ever going to try to make that voyage again.

Are you planning to go through their ship?

Simmer down, lad.

That's his style, after all. If we go head to head, we are sure to be out of

cannon's reach.

Board their ship, men!

Sir, in my opinion, that's way too dangerous.

Shut your trap. Board their ship.

We didn't get this far to have it all land here.

Oh, this is so bad. We're heavily outnumbered.

Take this.

Huh?

Would you look at that? I would bet my life those repairs were done where they

keep the powder kegs. This may be our only opportunity.

Aye, aye. I'm on it, Captain.

We have bags.

Come on.

Blow them up.

Davy Jones' locker, here they come.

I just knew

it. We have to gain some distance.

Explosion caused the leak. The ship's hold is flooded.

We'll have to get the water out somehow.

Once in Cape Verde, we asked what day of the week it was, and the Portuguese

said it was Thursday, although in my calendar, it was Wednesday.

By sailing only to the west, we gained back a day.

Let's go inside!

That's the Guadalquivir River!

I'll see my Carmencita soon!

Sevilla!

Of the 240 men that made up our initial crew, we were left with no more than 18,

most of which were sick.

We have sailed for more than 14 ,400 leagues, and we've gone around the

world by only traveling west.

Look there.

Whose ship is that?

Why, it's one of Magellan's ships.

We actually did it. We went around the whole world. It's safe to say you've

become a full -fledged Captain Elcano.

And to celebrate, we'll reward you with the proof of your merit. Hey, what are

you... Paco, it's you!

You're back! Hey, my dear Carmencita!

Oh, my.

How you've grown.

You too.

I still have this rosemary branch.

It brought me back home.

And it made you captain.

Did you find love at last?

The rosemary's magic is very powerful.

Will you go back to her?

The sailor always goes back to the sea. But before that, let's all celebrate it.

Good question.

Great job.

No, no, easy, easy, watch the place. Hold your breath, I'm asking you to

my hand.

It's time for you to follow your own guiding star.

May the light be with you, coming from the back.

Close your eyes for once and open your heart.

Even if the fear is pulling from your back, you will get the strength when I

die.

we're just trusting this

You can smell the sun, the sky's no longer bright.

It's time to spread the wings that allow you to sail.

Don't care about your rivals if you're out of flight.

You can sail your board once in a while.

But the world will never ever be the same.

You have changed the course of time.

We're just trapped in this ocean of...
