[On the screen, a wide street. A young man in white imperial robes gazes calmly ahead. Below the throne, several bound prisoners are held. The streets are not filled with cheers; instead, the eyes of the crowd hold only endless hatred...]
....
Code Geass World.
Countless citizens look at the young man with disgust, but more than that, with disbelief.
Why would a tyrant who died not long ago be listed among the saviors?
Why?
"How could this tyrant be a savior? Don't joke around!"
"Right, this list must be wrong!"
"After the tyrant's death, our lives have changed dramatically!"
Countless people discuss the better life that will come after Zero ends the tyrant Lelouch's reign.
Especially the Japanese, who refuse to acknowledge Lelouch.
Those who knew Lelouch personally look at this familiar scene with guilt on their faces.
Nunnally clasps her hands to her chest, gazing at the screen in the sky, murmuring, "Brother, Nunnally misses you so much."
Suzaku looks at his best friend on the screen with nostalgia.
.....
One Piece World.
Sengoku rubs his temples. He has already ordered a thorough investigation into the meteorite incident, especially keeping a close eye on Issho (Fujitora).
"This time, it's another king?"
"But the people seem to despise him. What happened?"
Unfortunately, no one answers him, as they are all brawny but simple-minded leaders.
Straw Hat Pirates.
"Everyone, watch me! Gum-Gum... Roar!" Luffy keeps exhaling, but only saliva comes out.
"Disgusting!" Nami raises her iron fist and starts pounding him.
"Stop! I'm the man who will become the Pirate King!"
.....
Type-Moon World.
Gilgamesh looks at Lelouch's arrogant expression and, for the first time, shows a different attitude.
"Finally, a somewhat decent mongrel."
.....
Saber, who is eating heartily, watches the video and feels a sense of familiarity with the people's attitude toward him.
After some thought, she decides not to dwell on it and shouts to Shirou, "Shirou, another bowl!"
....
Akame ga Kill! World.
Esdeath kicks the Northern Hero to death with disdain.
"Only power can make everything submit!"
The people standing on both sides of the video are precisely those dominated by power, unable to be free.
....
The Lion King World.
Simba, as usual, patrols around, showing off his kingly aura.
Fortunately, his subjects adore this kind king; otherwise, they would have fled long ago.
...
New Ghost Blader CG World.
The Yingshu Jing looks at the lofty figure and thinks of the incredibly handsome Monkey King, her beloved monkey.
The monkey who often climbed trees in the past.
"Sun Wukong, why won't you come to see me!"
...
[The screen suddenly shifts to Lelouch's childhood]
[As the eleventh prince of the Holy Britannian Empire, Lelouch recognized the cold-bloodedness of the imperial family during his childhood and thus renounced his claim to the throne. He was sent to Japan as a political pawn...]
[In Japan, he met his lifelong best friend, Suzaku. This period was the happiest time for him and his sister, Nunnally.]
[After Japan became Area 11, he hid his identity as a high school student.]
[However, the gears of fate had already begun turning. Lelouch encountered Suzaku again, but this time under completely different circumstances.]
[He initially thought he was transporting poison gas canisters, but upon opening them, he found a green-haired beautiful girl.]
[Soon, the military arrived and ordered Suzaku to kill everyone who had witnessed the scene. But Suzaku refused to do so.]
[Just as Lelouch was about to be shot, the green-haired girl took the bullet for him. She did not die and instead granted Lelouch the power of "Geass."]
[Afterward, Lelouch commanded the rebel forces. With his superior intellect, the military was like powerless chess pieces, allowing him to trample them at will.]
[After Lelouch killed his third brother, Orange (Jeremiah Gottwald) framed Suzaku as the scapegoat. As the son of the former prime minister, killing him would also help control Area 11.]
[To save his former companion, Lelouch needed the help of rebels like Kallen. To hide his identity as an imperial prince, he donned a stylish masked cloak.]
[Under the name "Zero," he vowed to completely overthrow the empire!]
.....
Code Geass World.
Countless people saved by Zero cannot believe what they are seeing and hearing.
That tyrannical Emperor Lelouch is the one who saved them as Zero?
What kind of international joke is this?
"Impossible! This must be fake! We clearly saw the tyrant killed by Zero!"
"This video is definitely fake!"
"Where is Zero? We need to ask for clarification! Is Lelouch still alive?!"
The once relatively stable world becomes turbulent because of this news.
Countless people have only one thought:
What the hell is going on? Can someone please tell us?
However, amidst this chaos,
C.C. is busy digging furiously at the grave where Lelouch was buried.
After a while, C.C. looks at Lelouch's pale, lifeless face, a flicker of heartache in her eyes, but she quickly regains her composure.
"Lelouch, I won't let you have your way alone!"
