After returning from Green River Valley, Zagor and Chico are greeted by Drunky Duck with a letter from their old friend, Digging Bill, a clumsy gold prospector. This time, Bill is not tormented by curses or ghosts, but by a man of flesh and blood...
The Hidatsa tribe chooses a new chief between two rivals. According to an old tribal custom, rivals compete in a game with seven arrows, but one of them is wounded, so Zagor takes his place.
