She cuts off the piece of moon, causing Nobita to blow away. When he gets up he finds himself at the forest and one of the Sherogani swordsman namely Suneo makes him his slave.

On the way, Nobita helps the baby bear to get out of trap. While moving through the jungle Nobita is attacked by another swordsman Gian. In order to save him Suneo fights with Gian, which he loses and he and Nobita have to retreat. Both of the swordsman move to the inner forest in order to find the Sherogani sword and suit. Both swordsman climb over the sky-touching tree to get the sword but Nobita luckily finds the blasted moon and with its help, he reaches to the top of tree and gets the sword. In this way he becomes another swordsman. At the same time Nobita's mother comes and wakes him. In the school, he found that due to the dream Gian and Suneo are tired.

On the other hand, princess Shizuka disagrees with her father's idea to marry the person who will defeat the evil king. She runs away from the castle, rides over the break which takes her away.

In the forest, the bear leads the group to the cave to dragon, but due to the stream of water Nobita and Doraemon get separated from the other two. Gian and Suneo continue to move. Suddenly the dragon appears and turn them into stones with his fire-breath.

Nobita and Doraemon meet with Shizuka. All of them got covered in sand due to falling of sand.Doraemon suggests that in this form dragon can not identify them. So they move to inner cave of the dragon. Nobita screamed to see Gian and Suneo in stoned form. Dragon hears it and attack Nobita with his fire, but he protect himself with his sword. He cuts the dragon's mustaches with the sword, causing the dragon to faint. When he was at the verge of finishing the dragon, he stops and gets away. All of them agree with Nobita.
