Nadia Vol 3,3:
Three Episode Summaries
"The Secret of Blue Water" is the adventures of Nadia, a mysterious
circus girl, and Jean, an inventive boy, with jewel thieves, Captain
Nemo of the Nautilus, a world-domination-seeking secret society, and
more. I have a set of color manga that was made from the anime series
which I will be translating here bit-by-bit. This is part 3 of volume
3, containing three episodes that were presented in summary form.

The main point is a scene where Captain Nemo shoots and kills an enemy
soldier before Nadia's eyes. Because of this, Nadia begins to harbor a deep
distrust for him.
Marie, on an excursion into the interior of the island, encounters a Neo Atlantis
soldier. Pursued by a crab-shaped robot, she is rescued by Sanson. Both of them
get away on a hand-car.
When they have struggled back to where the rest of the group from the Nautilus
are, the soldier who chased them is shot and killed by Captain Nemo. Nadia is
shocked by this spectacle....
