Day 26 (Cont.):
While Chang gave chase to the armoured mystery Russian in the Golden Hare, somebody announced over all radio frequencies to head to their current coordinates if they were looking to have some "fun", and soon after, the party was joined by another 5 ships. Though initially they all seemed to be a single raider group, after a closer look, it was discovered that they were merely unimaginative, as their flags were all skull-oriented, but different (flaming skulls, inverted skulls, poison skulls, etc).
The raiders opened fire on everything in sight, including each other, while the Russian came to a sudden stop while running on the water and began to (slowly) sink. After trying some buckshot and a slug to little effect, Chang got on the harpoon gun and impaled the mystery man through the chest, and began dragging him around with the Golden Hare.
Axe, meanwhile, rammed his boat into the raiders', only for Vaolt to kill all of them with a single shot from his revolver due to a dropped SMG going off. The mystery Russian, now recovered from the initial shock of being impaled by a harpoon, stood up and began to water ski while laughing insanely, killing raiders while Chang tried to slam him into their boats.

Day 24:
The treeple needed an entire day to create the healing goo, so the party found ways to kill time. Ai turned some goggles into a scope for the harpoon gun, Chang relaxed on the Golden Hare, and Axe and Vaolt went hunting in the jungle. Neither were skilled at Tracking, however, so they kind of just randomly wandered around.
After some time, they came across a group of mutants with guns, but both groups decided to ignore the other and continue on their ways. Later, they discovered a pack/herd/flock of rabbits, but before they could celebrate, the rabbits turned around in perfect synch, revealing that instead of a normal face, they had a gaping, toothy maw.
Axe began to slowly back away, and the "rabbits" followed at the same pace, until Vaolt started climbing a tree, at which point they charged. A bunch of them bit Axe before he could get out of reach, but, thanks to his thick skin, he was mostly unharmed. Vaolt threw a lead pipe, but the rabbits ignored it. He then killed two with shots from his pistol, only for the rest to eat the dead in the blink of an eye and return to watching the tree.

Day 20:
With Sharkticus' death, the weather improved, and the crew set sail. Chung informed everyone that the island chain they were entering contained more near-feral mutant gangs than usual, but he knew no specifics, as he had been shipwrecked for three years. Sure enough, the party came across two mutant-crewed ships engaged in a chase, while more mutants watched from the shore, cheering and occasionally firing a pistol in their general direction.
Fortunately, the mutants were entertained enough for Chang to "sneak" the Golden Hare past them, and they made camp slightly further up the coast. On Axe's watch, he noticed a 4' humanoid trying to steal stuff from their camp and killed the poor wretch instantly, before chucking him in the ship's blood drive.

Day 14:
After another night at sea, the party awoke to find that there was a storm ahead, and Ai's Weather Sense figured that they'd end up going through the worst of it. Throughout the day's travel, Cap'n Chang had a general sense of foreboding thanks to Danger Sense, but nothing specific. They found an island with skulls on stakes left as a warning, but slept there anyway and were uninterrupted.
Day 15:
Despite the storm, the Golden Hare made good time, though everybody was completely drenched almost immediately. In the afternoon, something big attacked the boat from under the water several times while the Cap'n switched to blood drive to outrun whatever it was. Eventually, it was revealed to be a group of giant sharks, as one jumped out of the water to bite Axe and was quickly slain.
The blood drive was activated before any serious damage could be done, and the party sped away for several hours before arriving at a rocky island where Ai and Chang repaired the dents the sharks had made. Afterwards, Ai examined the mystery revolver that Vaolt had picked up in the Philippine village and determined that the gun itself was pretty much normal, though it had never been fired, and that the bullet was some kind of shrunk-down ultra-tech projectile that would activate on high-speed impact.
