The Phantom; devil; ship captain; Cali; Queen Sansamor; contestants
It is said that sometimes the Phantom leaves the jungle and walks through the streets of town like an ordinary man!
The Phantom allows himself to be shanghaied so as to take part in Queen Sansamor's game. Six men fight to the death to win their way to a tent and fight the Queen's champion, the winner to receive a fortune in jewels. The Phantom wins through to find a death trap and an executioner, rather than a fair fight. He breaks out with Devil's help and proves that the Queen's jewels are paste. Her disgusted soldiers arrest and depose her, ending the rigged tournaments.
