Captain Lafoot spied a merchant ship and prepared to give chase. Again the pirates were interrupted, as a giant octopus rose from the depths and fastened its powerful tentacles on the pirate ship.

Just as the ship was about to be pulled beneath the surface by the octopus, a further menace, the sea serpent, appeared. It attacked the giant octopus, which released the pirate ship, enabling it to flee to safety.

The two monsters were so large and ferocious and the experience so frightening that, of Captain Lafoot and his four mates, the hair on the heads of two of them turned white.
