One morning, advertising man Muroi wakes with the married woman he is having an affair with, Yoshiko, to hear the stunning news that a Japanese tanker was sunk by Indonesian guerillas—the tanker captained by Yoshiko's husband. The SDF dispatches troops to intervene in Indonesia, and before long, Japan has a Ministry of War, a revival of conscription, and is beginning to return to how it once was...

The main character, Rosa, is the child of the devil. Although her appearance is patently innocuous, the terrible things that befall everyone around her soon prove that she is anything but. A dark, gruesome story, made all the more eerie by the sparkly, feminine 1960s shoujo art style Watanabe continues to use.

The story begins in the near future, when the Earth's oceans have risen and flooded most of the sea-lying land on Earth. The rogue scientist Zorndyke caused the flooding, which killed countless individuals, and most of humanity's remaining cities have been attacked or destroyed by Zorndyke's army of half-animal "hybrids". The remaining humans begin to wage war against Zorndyke's seagoing creations for simple survival. Humanity's best hope for a resolution to the conflict lies with its submarine forces, among which is the focus of the story, Blue Submarine #6. It is revealed that Zorndyke is attempting to decisively end the conflict in the favor of his hybrid children by artificially inducing a polar switch using geothermal energy at the South Pole.
