Upon discovering a petrification device, and successfully using it to revive Tsukasa, Senku decided that the best move for the Kingdom of Science would be to restart civilization so they can combat the Why-man on the Moon by building rockets.
To revive over 7 billion people, a lot of alcohol is needed as it is a big ingredient of the revival fluid.
The Kingdom of Science set sail for the United States a while ago. And after 50 days of back-breaking work to maneuver the Great-Circle route, chapter 148 shows the Kingdom of Science successfully making it to the United States and setting camp along the shores of the Sacramento river.
Chapter 148, titled “Pioneers of Earth,” shows the Kingdom of Science setting foot on the United States for the first time. They make their landing in San Francisco, where they find piles over piles of petrified human bodies.
They continue down Sacramento river, to Sacramento where Senku hopes to find a good supply of corn to start with.
As they travel down the river, Senku explains that the shifting of the Earth’s poles over 3700 years has caused seasons to get shifted.
This means an extra nine days for them to find corn before it starts to wither away.
They encounter some alligators on the way, which are swiftly killed by the muscle of the group (Tsukasa, Hyoga, Kohaku, etc.) and turned into delicious hamburgers by Francois.
The muscle team actually welcomed the attack with open arms as they had been longing for meat after their overseas journey.
The chapter ends with Tsukasa finding an ear of corn inside the alligator’s stomach, which confirms that there is a corn supply upstream.
Sadly chapter 149 has been delayed, so fans will have to wait an extra week before they can read more of Dr. Stone.
