Chihuahua, Mexico, 1872. Blueberry seeks General Vigo, who can clear his name of stealing the Confederate gold. Blueberry, Red, and Jimmy are arrested because Vigo is now Governor. They'll be shot, until, with President Juarez dead, Vigo is to be shot. Blueberry enlists El Tigre's gang to help Vigo escape over the wall and jump into a hayrick. They ride to a waterfall and cave behind, having left the doublecrossing El Tigre in the lurch. Blueberry uncovers Vigo's stash and a receipt for the Confederate gold signed by Juarez himself!
