| Teen genius Senku Ishigami manages to revive his friend Taiju Oki, the two having been mysteriously petrified along with all of humanity for over 3,700 years with most traces of human civilization gone. As the only two humans freed from stone, Senku seeks to rebuild civilization in this "stone world" using his knowledge of science and Taiju's brawn to help him develop a nital solution out of a "miracle water" made from bat guano that could possibly free people from their petrified state. After a year-long process, the two friends intended to test the formula on their classmate Yuzuriha Ogawa, but a lion attack forces them to revive the strongest fighter in their school, Tsukasa Shishio. Tsukasa proved to be a valuable asset until Senku learns of his conflicting intent to create a world free of the old generation's corruption. Once they revive Yuzuriha after tricking Tsukasa, Senku takes his group to a volcanic hot spring in Hakone to create gunpowder. But Tsukasa realizes Senku's plan to reinvent firearms and pursues the group. | |||||

| After Senku creates a batch of gunpowder, an accident caused by Taiju reveals there are other humans in the Stone World. Senku's decision to light more gunpowder attracts Tsukasa, who takes Yuzuriha hostage to demand the recipe for the revival fluid. Senku relinquishes the recipe to save Yuzuriha and allows Tsukasa to snap his neck after refusing to abandon science. However, having used gestures to lay clues to Taiju prior, Senku is revived when the revival fluid is placed on the stone fragment on his neck. Senku then gives Taiju and Yuzuriha instructions to join Tsukasa, allowing him to believe Senku is dead, as spies while he searches for the smoke signal's source and acquire allies. Senku eventually meets Kohaku, who attacked Tsukasa before he trapped her under a tree. Senku manages to use his science know-how to create a block and tackle to lift the tree off of Kohaku who takes him to her village. | |||||

| Kohaku takes Senku to the outskirts of her village, where he meets guards Kinro and Ginro along with a "sorcerer" named Chrome who Senku takes as his assistant after recognizing his "magic" as primitive science. Learning that Chrome became a sorcerer to help Kohaku's sickly sister, Ruri, Senku reveals to him about the world that existed 3,700 years ago and decides to help him and Kohaku develop an antibiotic to save Ruri. The trio are aided by the guards and a girl named Suika in a multi-part series to develop the means to make antibiotics with by-products, including the reinvention of electricity. At that time, the gang are approached by Gen Asagiri, a stage magician who Tsukasa revived to make sure Senku died but has his own agenda. | |||||

| Following a sudden attempt on Gen's life by the villager Magma, Kohaku reveals an upcoming Grand Bout where the winner becomes the new chief and marries Ruri. As Kohaku, Kinro, and Ginro train for the Grand Bout to prevent Magma from disposing of Ruri, Gen gives a false report to Tsukasa after Senku promised a bottle of cola. Senku develops glass, using some to create corrective lenses for the short-sighted Suika, while Chrome enlists the village's skilled craftsman Kaseki to develop lab equipment. Senku breaks in his lab by making Ginro a silver spear while enlisting him to safely acquire the sulfuric acid needed for the antibiotic.

| Senku only needs alcohol to complete the antibiotic as he and Chrome join the others in the Grand Bout, which commences with Magma's lackey Mantle forcing Kohaku to get herself disqualified after abducting Suika. Suika returns during Kinro's match with Magma, giving him her mask to remove his near-sightness, only for Magma to take him out with a cheat shot. But Chrome manages to defeat Magma with Gen's help, using his own tears with Suika's glasses to create a magnifying lens to set Magma's clothes on fire. After Ginro's humiliating defeat when he deviates from their plan, Senku wins the tournament when Chrome passes out before the final match. Senku quickly divorces Ruri once obtaining the alcohol and completes the sulfa drug, with Ruri making a full recovery. Senku is then accepted as new village chief, with Ruri revealing the village's name to be named Ishigami Village and that she learned of Senku through one of the many oral stories her bloodline kept alive. Ruri proceeds to tell the hundredth tale: The story of Senku's father, Byakuya, who became an astronaut and traveled to the International Space Station, alongside cosmonaut Shamil Volkov and American songstress Lillian Weinburg, joining fellow crew members Connie, Dalia, and Yakov. During their stay, Byakuya and the crew witness the petrification phenomenon. | |||||

| Ruri continues telling Senku how Byakuya, after deducing that the phenomenon originated in South America, returned to Earth with his crewmates as they started the families which the Ishigami Villagers descended from. In time, after Dalia and Yakov departed in an attempt to find a cure for Connie, the rest of the crew gradually die from pneumonia as Byakuya wrote down the "Hundred Tales" to preserve his knowledge for future generations in hopes that Senku would one day use them. After visiting Byakuya's grave marker, Senku learns from Gen that a group of Tsukasa's men under his right hand man Hyoga plan to attack the village. Despite Senku's gambit to hold Hyoga's forces off long enough to product katanas while Gen sides with them, Hyoga reveals his attack as a distraction for his ally Homura to set the village on fire and force everyone into the open. Suika manages to lure Hyoga's group away, stranding Hyoga and Homura on the treetops to avoid the poison gas from the acid pool. As Hyoga informs Tsukasa of Gen's betrayal and Senku's survival, Senku sets his sights on reinventing the cellular phone by spring time. This involves many steps, including creating a cotton candy machine. | |||||

| Using the water wheel Chrome built, Senku mechanizes the ironmaking process so the villagers can prepare for winter while his group begin developing light bulbs to celebrate Christmas with. Following a spelunking expedition for tungsten, Gen having led the villagers to build an observatory as a birthday present, Senku leads his group in creating the components needed to make two functional cell phones. After testing the phones, Senku is inspired by Ruri to find a time capsule sealed in Byakuya's gravestone: a glass record that Byakuya made to communicate with Senku. Using a phonograph, Senku and the villagers are able to hear a recording of the astronauts with Lillian's song inspiring the villagers to recreate the entertainment of the modern world. With the village's support and the cell phone, Senku declares a stone war against Tsukasa. | |||||

| After tasking Chrome, Magma and Gen with delivering the cell phone to Tsukasa's territory, they get chased by Homura, who had been watching the village from a distance since the first attack from Tsukasa's forces. Anticipating this, Senku develops a steam-powered automobile to give chase while carrying the villagers in force, along with his chemicals, into enemy territory. With Homura captured, the delivery team manages to bury the cell phone by a fake grave marker so it will be found by Taiju and Yuzuriha, who receive the first long-distance call from Senku. From there, he relays his plan to win over Tsukasa's men using Lillian's song and having Gen impersonating her, leading them into thinking the United States are rebuilding and will send help. While their ruse is quickly discovered by Nikki, a female follower of Tsukasa who happens to be a hardcore fan of Lillian, she agrees to help upon listening to her song. Chrome winds up captured by Ukyo, a sharp-shooting archer in Tsukasa's employ, while Senku and the villagers are working on improving the automobile, so Senku reinforces it with impromptu carbon fiber plating in order to both break Chrome out and intimidate Tsukasa's men. | |||||

| After being taunted by Yo, the warden of his prison who used to be a crooked police officer, Chrome devises a way to escape from his prison cell by attempting to synthesize impromptu sodium hydroxide to fray the ropes holding the bamboo bars together; while he only manages to produce a solution similar to bleach, it still works and he makes his way out, fooling Yo into thinking he has a fatal disease, and he rejoins the Kingdom of Science's troops. With Chrome released, and Ukyo deciding to side with the Kingdom of Science when Senku ensures his desire of winning the war without casualties, Senku decides to repurpose the tank for a frontal assault on the Cave of Miracles, providing a distraction that allows Tsukasa's men to surrender while Senku, Chrome and Gen make their way in to synthesize gunpowder from the nitric acid. Tsukasa and Hyoga step in, destroying the materials needed for gunpowder, but Senku manages to synthesize nitroglycerin from the nitric acid, forcing Tsukasa into a stalemate. Senku manages to negotiate to bring Tsukasa's little sister, Mirai, back to life, in return for a ceasefire. Shortly after Mirai is successfully revived, however, Hyoga turns on Tsukasa, fatally stabbing him when he shields his sister from a sudden attack. | |||||

| Hyoga reveals that his true objective with joining Tsukasa was to cull humanity even further than what Tsukasa practiced, believing that not only the young, but also the more rational ones should be the only people allowed to live. Disagreeing with him, Senku teams up with Tsukasa, who realized the error of his ways, and they defeat Hyoga with Senku using an improvised taser. With the war ended and Hyoga and Homura imprisoned, Tsukasa's Empire is unified with the Kingdom of Science, and Senku resolves to build a ship in order to navigate to the origin point of the phenomenon that petrified the people of Earth, his idea being petrifying Tsukasa again so the rocky coating will heal his wound. Tsukasa is put in cryosleep in a "refrigerator" built by Senku while the Kingdom of Science sets about building the ship. Knowing a captain will be necessary to steer the ship across the ocean, Senku releases Ryusui Nanami, the wealthy heir of a shipping conglomerate who is also an expert sailor. Ryusui promptly informs that the ship will need a more powerful fuel to sail across the sea: petroleum. Sending Chrome, Kohaku and Ukyo to scout for oil wells, they find out that successive eruptions of Mount Fuji throughout the last 3,700 years caused the seaboard to change, leading Senku to devise a hot air balloon so the landmasses can be scouted from above. | |||||
