Answer:

'foreign devils,' 'choked,' 'huge wings,' 'clear off the edge,' 'fear,' 'exhilaration.'

C). Goemon and Manjiro fear them, but Manjiro is also curious about them.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Tone is described as the author's approach or attitude towards a specific subject matter which is reflected through the word-choice and style adopted by the author. In the given excerpt, the descriptive words like 'foreign devils,' 'choked,' 'huge wings,' 'clear off the edge,' etc. display the attitude and feeling of the characters. The readers learn from these words that Goemon and Manjiro feel afraid of the 'barbarians' and seeing them makes Goemon choked. However, Manjiro was curious to know about them as he was fascinated by their huge wings. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
