Introduction
Treasure Island: Jim Hawkins runs a small hotel with his mother in the countryside. One day, an old sailor, calling himself "the captain"—real name "Billy" Bones—comes to lodge at the Admiral Benbow Inn. He used to be a member of pirate Flint’s crew. Flint is deceitful and disloyal, greedy and visceral, and does not care about human relations. He has a map of an island where he buried a vast treasure. After Flint dies, Billy seems to possess the map and thus becomes the target of all the covetous pirates. Jim finds the map on the body of Billy, and sails to Treasure Island with his friends. Meanwhile, those evil pirates disguise and get on board, planning to grab the treasure.
