According to what has been shown to us so far, the gold indeed is somewhere in Rokkenjima inside an underground room.
The epitaph doesn't mention Nagasaki, that's merely a speculation.
However it is almost certain that you need to check an Atlas in order to find the solution to the epitaph. That's only the first part though. The Atlas is only meant to provide informations necessary to progress further on the solution of the epitah it doesn't mean you need to find the gold's location looking at a map. In fact the novel suggests otherwise
We know that Eva stopped looking at the atlas as soon as she found what the "key" was. After that she went "somewhere" and we don't know how she used that key to solve the rest of the epitaph and reach the gold.
