Suddenly, I looked up at the sky above us.
Was it a dream… or reality?
The God's Country towered in the clouds, ten thousand meters above the Blue Sea.
The sound of the Golden Bell echoed faintly—clear, beautiful, and serene.
That bell represented harmony between the Shandia and the original Skypiea residents. At last, the centuries-old conflict had ended.
"Hahaha! This is amazing!" Luffy said while sitting on the railing.
Beside him, Chopper gazed up with a dreamy look. "Skypiea was terrifying… but it was such a wonderful journey."
"Amazing!!"
The Golden Bell's sound spread far across the sea, reaching all the way to Jaya, where Cricket and the others lived.
Many people had gathered around Cricket's house.
When they heard the bell, Cricket finally confirmed it—Skypiea was real.
"Wuwuwu… do you guys know…?" Cricket sat in a corner, sobbing. "I was actually really worried about them… so scared something happened… Wuwuwu… thank goodness they're okay…"
"Boss, are you alright!?" Shojo and Ape rushed over to comfort him.
After a while, Cricket wiped his face and stood up.
"Thank you, everyone… for staying with someone like me all these years—for my ridiculous dream."
Shojo shouted, "Why are you talking like that? Don't be so distant!"
Yes.
A dream he'd chased for decades… fulfilled in one day.
And now that it was realized, joy was mixed with confusion.
What now? What comes after a completed dream?
"I'm telling all of you!" Cricket shouted passionately.
"What kind of romance should we pursue next?!"
Ape casually added, "But Boss, that handsome young man earlier said… once your life is almost gone, what romance is there—"
Before he finished, everyone glared at him like he had committed a crime.
Cricket also froze.
He clearly remembered Sandy saying that exact line earlier.
Sandy wasn't wrong… but hearing the truth out loud felt like someone stabbing his pride.
To prove Skypiea existed, he had wasted years of youth, nearly died multiple times, and dragged his comrades with him—
All for a dream.
All for the name of a man people claimed was a liar—Mont Blanc Noland.
Cricket clenched his fists… then forced himself to smile.
"Everyone! From now on… let's start a new journey!"
"WOAHHH!!"
"To the ends of the earth, we'll follow you, Boss!"
"Ohhh! Romance! Romance—"
"Shh! Stop saying 'romance'! Didn't you see the Boss's face go dark again?!"
Cricket: "…"
"What nonsense? Following the Boss IS romance! If we don't talk romance, what do we talk about?"
"Didn't you hear the Boss say journey?"
"Did he say that?"
Cricket: "…"
.........…
Meanwhile, in mid-air, the Going Merry had stabilized during its descent.
The moment things calmed down, everyone immediately remembered the true treasure of Skypiea—
The gold.
"Gold! Gold! Gold!" Sandy, Usopp, Chopper, and Luffy gathered around the giant pile, practically vibrating with excitement.
To be honest, this was the first time in Sandy's life he had seen—
cough
owned—
so much gold.
Luffy announced proudly, "Everyone! We're finally rich! What should we buy first? A giant bronze statue?!"
"Idiot!" Usopp yelled. "Why trade gold for bronze?! Let's add more cannons!"
Sandy scoffed, "Buy what? We should repair the ship first."
Nami stood with her hands on her hips, staring at them with dead fish eyes.
Sanji twirled around her dramatically, hearts in his eyes.
"Miss Nami! I want a refrigerator with a lock!"
"What nonsense is that?!" Luffy argued. "What if I get hungry later?!"
Sanji exploded. "That's EXACTLY why I want a lock! So you won't steal the food, you rubber-brained bastard!"
Chopper ran over.
"Nami! Nami! I want to buy books! Medical books from other countries!"
Nami threw her hands up.
"Wait. Everyone WAIT. We'll discuss treasure distribution after we land."
Ignoring her entirely, Chopper climbed onto a stool and pleaded, "PLEASE buy me books!!"
Nami grabbed Chopper's mouth and squeezed it shut.
"If I buy according to your wishes, there will be nothing left!"
Everyone reluctantly admitted she had a point… though Sandy and Usopp still looked doubtful.
But under Nami's authority (and fists), no one dared resist.
Sandy returned to his usual spot and fell asleep immediately.
Not long after, Robin walked out and asked, "Nami, where is our ship heading?"
"Where else?" Nami replied casually, glancing at the Log Pose. "To the next isla—"
She froze.
The Log Pose needle had swung far off course.
"AAAAHHHH!!!"
"What happened?!" Usopp cried.
"What's wrong, Miss Nami?!" Sanji asked, lovestruck as always.
"This is bad!" Nami shouted. "We hit turbulence earlier and drifted off course!"
Sanji looked up. "Now that you mention it… the wind is strong."
Luffy shrugged, "So what? After we reach the sea, we can just go back to the next island, right?"
Nami stared at him in disbelief.
"You make it sound SO easy…"
Just then, Sandy and Zoro sat up at the exact same time—half asleep—and shouted,
"Hey! Danger!"
Everyone stared at them.
The two looked ahead for two seconds, then said in perfect sync,
"Oh… it's a dream."
They lay back down and instantly went to sleep.
To the others, it was just typical weirdness.
But to Nami?
It felt like pure mockery.
She had only lost focus for a second and the course changed.
And these two idiots dare act like this?!
They must be making fun of her for sleepwalking!
Yes. That had to be it!
"What are you two doing?!" Nami exploded.
"What do you MEAN by that?!"
Usopp quickly held her back.
"They're dreaming! It has nothing to do with you!"
"You two bastards scared me to death!" Sanji added angrily.
"Hahahahaha!" Luffy laughed like an idiot.
And by then, night had completely fallen.
