Boom!!
The entire Marineford was forcefully slammed into the seabed, disappearing completely.
A scene like the end of the world crushed everyone's spirits.
Bang!
Suddenly, space fractured, cracking like a mirror. Time froze, and everything began to fade.
Sengoku's mind collapsed, directly causing the dream to shatter.
A beautiful dream had suddenly turned into a nightmare. Sengoku couldn't hold on any longer and just wanted this terrifying event to disappear.
"He'll probably be scared to death when he wakes up."
In the sky, the thousands-of-meters-tall abyss monster disappeared, and Vladimir resumed his human form. He looked down at the ruins below and shook his head.
"However, the more fear, the better. Thanks to the fear you provided, I was able to complete the transformation."
As his voice fell, his body also began to dissipate.
The dream had collapsed, and he had to withdraw.
"However, Sengoku alone isn't enough. Let's move on to the next dream…"
...
Late at night, at Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
On this island, besides Marine Headquarters, there was also a town. The town housed the families of Marines and was quite large…
At this moment, in the Marshal's mansion, in a bedroom, a man on the bed suddenly woke up.
"Fearful Great Demon King!!"
With a piercing cry, Sengoku abruptly sat up. He was covered in cold sweat, his expression filled with terror.
After a while, he covered his forehead and said with an unsettled mind, "It was just a dream… Damn it! To dream about the Phantom Organization even in my sleep!"
He gritted his teeth, a trace of lingering panic still in his heart.
Dreaming about the Phantom Organization was one thing, but having a beautiful dream of publicly executing the Phantom Pirates turn into a nightmare because of a Fearful Great Demon King, an Abyss Dominator, was infuriating!
In the final moments, the power displayed by the Great Demon King was beyond human capabilities. Even an ancient weapon of legend might not be this strong.
Sinking an entire island with a single punch—the thought alone sent shivers down his spine.
The more he thought about it, the more Sengoku's heart trembled. Suddenly, his whole body shook.
"Wait… why can I remember the events in the dream so clearly?"
Abruptly, a fear of the unknown made his heart beat faster.
Sengoku was not a religious person, but he had occasionally read biographies of eccentric figures that mentioned "precognitive dreams."
"Could it be that in the future, Marine Headquarters will be destroyed by the Fearful Great Demon King?! No, who is the Fearful Great Demon King? Such a thing is impossible!"
Despite saying this, Sengoku immediately got out of bed.
Wearing his pajamas, he didn't care about anything else and directly summoned his subordinate.
Being summoned by the Marshal in the middle of the night, this subordinate's mood was rather complex.
"Go to the archives and the intelligence room, and investigate the Fearful Great Demon King!" Sengoku gritted his teeth.
"No… also investigate theological documents, myths, legends, and biographies. Hurry!"
He was frightened and felt that something was not right. Under the shadow of suspicion, he instinctively wanted to understand what this Abyss Dominator was and whether it truly existed… even as a myth!
The subordinate was dumbfounded. Was the Marshal going crazy in the middle of the night? And why was he covered in cold sweat?
...
While Sengoku was in turmoil, similar situations were occurring all over the world.
Intruders had infiltrated numerous dreams.
And as more instances of fear emerged, the Fearful Great Demon King's real body in the center of Dragon Island was gradually taking shape.
"Still not enough…"
...
Dreaming.
After all, it was a dream. Even if one panicked and felt fear at the moment of waking, upon realizing it was just a dream, people would quickly calm down, dismissing it as merely a dream.
Therefore, the collection of fear was slow and scarce.
In the lake at the center of Dragon Island.
Having absorbed the mysterious power from the lake, the lake had lost a certain special function.
The flying dragons on the island also began to riot. They seemed to have detected something unusual and were gradually flying towards the center.
Vladimir was not interested in the roaring dragons for the moment. His body still hadn't fully materialized.
Within a mass of black mist, only one hand was tangible.
"The progress is too slow. In one night, I've disrupted countless sweet dreams, yet only one hand has materialized. At this rate, it will take more than half a month to fully form my body…"
This time. It wasn't long, nor was it short.
But Vladimir wanted to speed things up. As for how to do that, he had thought of two methods for now.
The first method was to deepen the fear. Many dream owners, after waking up and thinking it was just a dream, would relax, believing the Fearful Great Demon King was fake.
In this case, as long as the person dreamed again, he would invade and bring a nightmare. After two or three such occurrences, the person would surely become suspicious, thinking the Fearful Great Demon King might actually exist.
The second method was more direct: find a way to lure some people to Dragon Island. Vladimir could then inflict fear on them in reality, which would likely allow him to form his body easily.
"The first method is easier. The second is a bit more troublesome. Let's try the first method first."
Vladimir thought silently.
