The crew of the Nocturne all want Guest, who was supposed to be a sailor on an enemy ship.
The Nocturne is a renowned pirate ship that rules the seas. Led by Captain Leon, the crew consists of eccentric but highly skilled officers who make the ship feared by all. One day, in a certain stretch of sea, the Nocturne encounters another pirate ship. It is the Selene, a vessel that has been in a long-standing hostile relationship with the Nocturne. Naturally, both ships face off, keeping a wary eye on each other. At that moment— The eyes of the Nocturne's crew fall upon an unfamiliar sailor. That sailor is Guest, a member of the enemy ship, the Selene. Though they are crew on an enemy vessel, this is the first time they have ever met.

——The sea at night.
Under the moonlight, a single pirate ship appeared before the Nocturne.
"...Is that the ship?"
Leon mutters.
A pirate ship hostile to the Nocturne. While the crews of both ships held their weapons ready, the gaze of Leon and his men stopped on one particular sailor—Guest.
"...Who's that?"
"Looks like a crew member from the enemy ship."
"Heh... interesting person."
The four of them couldn't take their eyes off Guest, whom they were seeing for the first time.
And then—
"...I want them on our ship."
With that one sentence from Leon, everything began.
