The Grand Line, Baltigo, a desolate land filled with sand and gravel.

Deep underground lies a hidden cave, for this is the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, a place the World Government has searched for over a decade without success.

Even though they have been trading arms with other countries for years, it has not been exposed.

A huge conference room was now filled with battered and bruised VIPs.

His upper body was wrapped in bandages, and Long's fierce face looked somewhat pale.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive, and everyone's face revealed exhaustion and sadness, because the price they paid in this war was extremely heavy, even reducing them to their original state.

Six or seven hundred thousand Revolutionary Army, some mid-level officers, and Chief of Staff Sabo all perished in Marineford.

This time, their rescue target turned out to be waste.

However, an unexpected person appeared among this group: Garp the Hero, who is now despised by everyone.

It's clear that Garp is in a very bad mental state; his once sharp eyes are now filled with emptiness, a look of self-blame and despair.

With red and swollen eyes, the usually cheerful Koala now lowered her head, clutching her skirt tightly as she sobbed.

Sabo is dead, gone from her forever.

What is the current situation outside?

As the leader, Long forced himself to look at Tally, whose head was wrapped in bandages.

"It's all news about this war. The Whitebeard Pirates have fallen apart, and the Navy's reputation has suffered greatly. They are currently still regrouping."

"What moves have the Four Emperors made?" Dragon asked, his face grim.

"The Red-Haired Pirates and the Beasts Pirates clashed in the New World; the whereabouts of Red-Haired and Kaido are unknown. The Blackbeard Pirates attacked a country, but all members were captured; specific details are unclear."

Listening to Tally's report, Long rubbed his forehead.

"Furthermore, the World Government is cracking down on some of our strongholds, putting us under considerable pressure."

Finally, Tally, with a somber expression, delivered the worst news.

"Please be careful, brothers, so all plans are on hold. We don't have any spare resources right now."

The dragon's heart is bleeding.

"Knew."

"Betty, Morley, Berg, Karasu, return to the stronghold as soon as possible to stabilize morale. Use this time to rest and recuperate."

After giving instructions to Tally, Dragon turned his gaze to the four army commanders.

"Good."

"Koshiro, Heracles, don't rush back." Then Ryu turned his gaze to the other two.

Frowning, Koshiro and Heracles nodded as well.

"Then let's get to work! Cheer up, the Revolutionary Army hasn't been wiped out yet."

"Yes."

As the meeting adjourned, only Dragon and Garp remained.

Looking up, Dragon saw Garp lost in a daze, stood up, and walked to his side.

"Old man, don't overthink it."

"I made a mistake, I was wrong from the very beginning."

Color gradually returned to his eyes, Garp hatred flashed within them.

"You can't act rashly now, let alone seek revenge on God."

Grasping Garp's trembling hand, Dragon spoke in a deep voice.

The aura began to surge violently, Garp stared intently at the dragon until he finally lost all strength and collapsed into his chair.

"I know I can't kill him now."

Despite covering his forehead with one hand, Garp hadn't lost his composure.

"I'll settle this score with him. You should go check on Luffy!"

He practically squeezed the words out from between his teeth, each one filled with murderous intent.

Without saying a word, Garp became somewhat taciturn, and then left the meeting room.

Meanwhile, in another room, medical equipment was beeping, and three unconscious figures lay on three white beds: Luffy, Zoro, and Usopp.

Two figures sat beside the three beds; they were Nami and Brook, who hadn't had a chance to participate in the war.

Brook originally had a chance to reach Marineford, but some things happened along the way that delayed him. He finally met the Revolutionary Army when they were retreating from Marineford.

Nami is similar to Brook.

Nami, her eyes red and swollen with tears still on her face, was choking back sobs. She had clearly been crying recently. Brook, who was standing next to her, was not as lively as usual, but was staring blankly into space.

Where is this?

The only sounds in the quiet room were the dripping of IV fluid and Nami's sobs. Suddenly, Usopp on the hospital bed opened his eyes.

"Usopp."

Seeing that Usopp had regained his senses, Nami lost control and rushed over to him, bursting into tears.

"Nami, what are you doing here?"

Wrapped up like a mummy, Usopp was still a little dazed, but then his eyes widened as if he remembered something, and he looked back and forth at the hospital bed.

"Zoro, Luffy."

With tears welling up in his eyes, Usopp also began to cry.

"Cough cough"

Perhaps disturbed by Usopp, Zoro also opened his eyes.

"Zoro."

Brook walked to the bedside.

"Brook." Zoro was initially confused, then suddenly sat up and asked urgently, "Where are Luffy and Robin?"

"Waaaaah, Robin's dead! Luffy's badly injured and still hasn't woken up!"

Unable to hold back her tears, Nami burst into tears again.

The entire room was instantly filled with sadness and pain.

"Robin, Chopper, and Franky are all dead, and Sanji has been captured by the Kingdom." Nami kept wiping away tears, her heart feeling like it was being torn apart.

"God."

With a ferocious expression, Zoro had never hated anyone so much.

"Robin"

Suddenly, Luffy, who had been unconscious, screamed as if he had a nightmare, his forehead covered in sweat and revealing his fear.

"Luffy."

Seeing that Luffy woken up, Nami and Brook quickly went to the bedside.

"Nami, Brook." He tried to get up, but what was that feeling of loss? Luffy stared stiffly at his arms.

"My hand, where's my hand?" Luffy collapsed, struggling.

"Luffy, don't move! Your wounds have reopened!"

Seeing the white bandages stained red, Nami pleaded with a tearful voice.

My hand, my hand

With a look of terror on his face, fragments of desperate memories began to appear in Luffy's mind.

"Zoro, Usopp, Robin."

"Luffy, I'm here, I'm here."

"I'm here too."

Forcibly getting out of bed, Zoro and Usopp walked over to Luffy's side.

"Zoro, Usopp!" Tears streamed down Luffy's face as Luffy out in fear, "Where's Robin?"

"Luffy, Robin... Robin... she's dead."

Nami emerged, tears streaming down her face.

"Where's Ace? Where's Sabo?"

Clinging to the last glimmer of hope, Luffy's heart nearly stopped.

"They, they were also killed by God."

Like a bolt from the blue, Nami's words pierced Luffy's soul like a sharp blade.

With his mouth agape, his eyes bulging, and countless blood vessels spreading across his face, Luffy lost control and began to convulse.

"Hiccup"

Unable to utter a sound, Luffy's legs kept giving way, and the hospital bed was trembling violently.

"Luffy, Luffy, don't scare me!" Nami panicked, looking at Luffy who seemed to be in trouble and not knowing what to do.

"Guards! Guards!"

Usopp cried out, tears streaming down his face.

Hearing the sound, the outer door opened, and Ivankov walked in, his expression changing drastically as he looked at Luffy, who was convulsing uncontrollably.

"Not good."

Ivankov came to the bedside, his five fingers extending sharp nails, and instantly pierced Luffy's side, then began to transmit something.

Slowly, Luffy stopped convulsing and eventually fell into a coma.
