To secure the dominations over the Mediterranean including Aegean or Adriatic shores, Red Sea and Indian Ocean, Ottoman Turks had to hold naval power, since the end of 15th century, well-known admirals came into existence one after another. Pirî Réis was one of those famous Turkish seamen and admirals like Barbaros Hayrettin or Seyd Ali Réis.<br>The writer has already examined biography of Pirî Réis, and his life work, "Kitabi Bahriye". This paper deals with only the part of Çin Deniz (the China Sea) written in Nazim. This part contains an account of the China Sea and considering that part of the world as the extremity of the East. It gives several interesting informations on the life of Chinese people, their customs, traditions, and their technical skill on ceramics. It also relates the Portuguese sailor's stories based on fantastic rumours. These rumours beara close resemblances to some paragraphs of old Chinese Classics, "Shan hai ching".<br>In summary, this paper intends to translate the Turkish Nazim concerned into Japanese and to research for relations with Portuguese monopolistic and exclusive policy to Eastern products.
