I think C: the main character will journey to this island

Pierce Shepard · Answer 2

C.

Explanation:

"If not, I was determined to be the first," implies that he was going to try and be the first person to visit that island. Therefore, it implies that the main character will visit the island, whether he is the first one there or not.
