Dr. Stone season 3 episode 7 debuts “the island’s most beautiful” to the series
Dr. Stone season 3 episode 7 kicked off with Senku and Ryuusui briefing their crew members about the new mission. As a big group was gathered to incite a war with the island residents, Senku formed a new Recond Group, comprising himself, Kohaku, Soyuz, and Gen, where each member was supposed to play a vital role while retrieving Platinum.
After discovering Suika had snuck into the ship, Ryuusui told her she would be immediately sent back to Ishigami village. Francoise explained to Suika that as the ship's captain, Ryuusui had several responsibilities, and he didn’t want to put her life at risk, as the mission was dangerous.
After Ginro discovered statues underwater, Ukyo was shaken up, as 3700 years ago, the island was uninhabited until the astronauts arrived in their Soyuz capsule. After losing radio contact with Ryuusui and others, Soyuz and Gen found everyone on the ship petrified into statues. However, at the last minute, Ryuusui kicked Suika off the ship to help her escape petrification.
Soyuz had foggy recollections from his childhood as he realized his family was fleeing something that was turning people into statues. Senku and Gen conducted a forensic and psychological examination after discovering evidence lying around. The duo eventually determined that the mysterious person was a young lady of average height with black hair who lived near the mountains.
Senku and others finally spotted the suspect, who turned out to be a girl named Amaryllis. While eavesdropping on Amaryllis’ conversation with three other island residents, Senku and his recon team learned that the person they called master was responsible for petrifying others.
Amaryllis tried to enchant Soyuz and Gen with her beauty but was shocked that it didn’t work on Senku. After a sudden commotion drew their attention, Amaryllis, Senku, and others rushed to the village, where they discovered the people had decided to rebel against their leader.
With the help of Gen and Kohaku, Senku subdued the villagers with Chloroacetone, a chemical compound mostly known as world war 1 tear gas, for their safety. After presuming Senku was a sorcerer, Amaryllis asked him to help her and the village from their evil master.
