"What? Zoro, you must be lying to me, right? Tell me quickly, none of this is true!" Luffy grabbed Zoro's shoulder in pain and shook wildly.

"Luffy, calm down. Chopper is just missing. Maybe he is waiting for us in some corner of the world!" Zoro said this, but he had no confidence. It has been two years since then. Such a long time can almost explain everything.

Moreover, they fell from a height of 10,000 meters last time, and without being wiped out, it was already a blessing for greed. How could they ask for more?

However, this was unacceptable to Luffy. He had experienced countless difficulties and obstacles, and was even cruelly to death by the big white goose outside the novice village three times at the beginning. He finally came to this Sky City to meet with Zoro and the others, but was told such bad news.

Therefore, he would rather believe Zoro's lies with kindness, even if it was just a glimmer of hope, it would be much better than total despair.

"Well, you're right. Chopper must be waiting for us to look for in a corner of the sea. I must not give up." Luffy murmured to himself, as if he was hypnotizing himself, "By the way, where is Vivi, hasn't she entered the dream domain now?"

However, Zoro shook his head, Luffy was frightened and asked tentatively: "Vivi is like Chopper, haven't found it yet?"

Nami, who was beside her, said hoarsely, "No, Vivi... is dead!"

"This is absolutely impossible. You must be lying to me, it must be. By the way, am I not in the dream realm now? That means everything today is actually me dreaming, right? Everything is fake. After waking up, you will return to your previous appearance." Luffy's eyes brighter, as if he had found the answer.

Bang!

Zoro punched him to the ground and said angrily: "We are all sad, but that is not your reason to escape. Since you are the captain, you should take on everything bravely, rather than being disgusting like a coward."

"Now, stand up and tell me your answer!"

"Zoro, don't do this... Luffy just couldn't accept it for the time being." Usopp dissuaded.

"All of us can be weak, but he can't. Even the captain dares to face reality, so there is no need for this pirate group to exist!" Zoro answered firmly.

Luffy stood up silently and straightened the straw hat on his head, "Ha, I thought I had learned to be strong after my grandfather died, but I didn't expect it to happen... Zoro, thank you for waking me up. Next, I will no longer be confused and desperate. I will carry their will."

"Can you tell me how Vivi... she died?"

"Three months ago, a large riot occurred in Alabastan. Vivi was worried and didn't want to drag us down, so she rushed back alone, and then... she never came back."

"Damn it! What's this!" Luffy clenched his fists tightly, recalling what the man said in Alabastan two years ago. Perhaps, the man was right. They didn't have the ability to guard a country at all, and their reputation was far from reaching the point where a flag could shock the enemy.

"The last riot..."

"Under the strong suppression of the world government, the riot ended quickly, and the head of the rebels was also executed, and we didn't even know who to seek revenge."

Luffy was silent again, and suddenly felt something was wrong. The nosebleed Lord, after looking around for a week, he asked in a trembling voice: "Where is Sanji, is he too..."

"Don't worry, Sanji... lives well," Usopp said.

"Huh, that's good." Luffy sighed and finally fell into a big heart.

"but……"

"But what?" Luffy widened his eyes. Can't these guys say everything at once?

"He was caught by Nightmare." Seeing Luffy looking like he was about to get a myocardial infarction, Nami quickly said: "Don't worry, don't forget that Sanji has the identity of the third son of the Vincemuk family under Nightmare. According to the information we found out, Sanji was just under house arrest in a blood-colored dream and was not abused or punished."

"That's good." Luffy breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his heart could not be stimulated at all. He immediately asked again: "Where is the blood-colored dream you mentioned?"

"That is the nightmare's nest, a continent called the Dream Kingdom created by him with the terrible power of moving mountains and filling the sea. It is a continent that destroys countless darkness and evil."

Luffy was silent again. This kind of name was known to be an extremely dangerous place at first glance. In most people's eyes, it was a more terrifying place than Marie Geoah, the Holy Land and Marinfando, the Navy Headquarters.

"In fact, Sanji was just imprisoned in the dream kingdom. His actions in this dream OL were not prohibited. We had seen him from afar. He should have discovered our existence, but he quickly ran away in a hurry, perhaps because he was worried about involving us."

"Dream Kingdom, Bloody Dream!" Luffy took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I will never abandon any of my companions anymore. Even in that man's nest, I will try to sneak in and rescue Sanji."

"Are you still willing to believe me?"

"Luffy, what stupid things are you saying? Even if you don't say these things, we will never leave Sanji alone." Nami said angrily.

"Yes, we were planning to sneak into that destructive continent." Usopp said.

"Indeed, if you sneak into the blood-colored dream, now is indeed the best opportunity." Zoro continued.

"The best...opportunity?" Luffy asked in confusion.

"Luffy, you haven't been away from the island for a long time. Maybe you don't know how turmoil the news that came from the Dream Kingdom a few days ago has caused in the world!"

"Nightmare claims that he will hold the world's number one martial arts conference to compete for the real world's strongest, and the champion's prize is the ability of the last Whitebeard, known as the world's strongest man, to shake the fruit!"

Luffy widened his eyes, obviously still immersed in the shock brought by the news.

However, he quickly came back to his senses and asked excitedly: "Will that mean that Ace and the others will definitely attend that martial arts conference?"

"Well, it may be hard to say about other forces, but the Whitebeard Pirates will never let the fruit fall into the hands of others. Fire Fist Ace, the fuse of the last major incident, has no possibility of being absent."
