"I am, Zero!"

An unknown signal hijacked the signal transmission of the TV station.

"O Japanese! I am back! ”

This proclamation was instantly transmitted to every corner of the world with radio signals. Announce to the world that the man who once caused a storm in the Bunitanian Empire has returned.

"All those who have power, I am saddened by war and discrimination, preaching all the malice of the strong. A tragicomedy that continues to make mistakes, and keeps circulating. Nothing has changed in the world. So, I had to be resurrected, and as long as the strong continue to bully the weak, I will continue to resist. ”

Compared with the Bunitania TV organization that is in a hurry at the moment, the EU and its counterparts in the Chinese Federation are much easier. Even if Zero is a terrorist, then he's a terrorist who will only trouble you in Bunitania, right? And Zero's return declaration, that's big news. The big news sent to the door naturally has no reason to be extrapolated. In this way, the foreign news media, which gloated about the Bunitanian jokes, had no intention of cutting off the signal.

"Won't it?"

"Didn't you say you're dead?"

"But all of a sudden..."

"Is it really Zero himself?"

The same question arose in the hearts of everyone who was watching this happen.

"Shu Muqing, what the hell is going on?" Monica looked at Suzaku with an almost ferocious gaze.

And Luca, the fifth knight, also cast a skeptical gaze.

"Zero is dead." Suzaku replied decisively with an expressionless face.

"That's an impostor?" The strong smell of gunpowder forced Keno to come out to play the round.

For the sake of a mere terrorist, it would be better for three Knights of the Round Table to engage in a big brawl, which would be more than worth the loss.

"There is news from the command center of District 11 that it has been confirmed that the source of the signal is from the consulate of the Chinese Federation in District 11."

It's a conspiracy.

Hearing this, not only Schunezel, but everyone who was doing it had such a thought in their hearts.

Is the Federal Republic of China finally unable to bear it?

"And.... Governor Calares can't be contacted...."

Schunezel only waved his hand lightly at the reporting officer.

He didn't need to report this anymore, because the man who called himself Zero on TV had already given the answer.

"First of all, the stupid Governor of Calares, who has been punished by the Nest just now!"

"Hey~~ It's too fast!" Keno shook his head.

"Do you want to break into the consulate general?"

In any case, he is also a dignified governor of the empire, and there are only 18 people in the entire empire, holding the military and political power of a region. Now he was killed when the other party just appeared, which will more or less give people the impression of incompetence. The face of the empire is lost, and the face of being a knight of the round table will naturally be humiliated.

"But..."Kino, who suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing, quickly turned his head to look at Monica and Luca.

He said this mostly out of a joke nature, but if it were these two, it would definitely not be a joke. To others, Zero may be an enemy of a conceptual empire, but to others, Zero is a bitter enemy.

"This is a major violation that will cause international problems." Suzaku, who had a serious face, probably didn't know that he had spoken indirectly about Kino.

Eyes on Zero on TV.

"I will continue to fight, fight against people of all forms of wrong power! Therefore, I hereby declare once again the establishment of the Japanese Super-United States! ”

The presentation continues.

"Is that good?" But Li Xingke had no interest in continuing to listen.

"I haven't received the Son of Heaven's decree yet."

"As Consul General, I have the right to deal with things at my discretion." Gao Hai replied unconcernedly.

"You've seen that technical power with your own eyes, and now the Federation needs everything that can strengthen itself."

"......" Li Xingke left the room in silence.

It's not that he's unhappy with Gaohai's decision, but he might make the same decision himself, because Zero has the value of using it. What really displeased him was Gao Hai's contempt for the authority of the Son of Heaven. Although it is common for the eunuchs to be arbitrary and autocratic, and it is common for the authority of the Son of Heaven to be applauded, this is what Li Xingke is increasingly unable to tolerate.

"From this moment on, this room will be the first territory of the Japanese Super-United States! Regardless of race, doctrine or religion, there is only one condition for becoming a citizen, and that is to exercise justice! ”

'Pap~Pap~Pap~'

As the image fades away, a slow, rhythmic applause applauds the end of the speech.

"It was a wonderful performance, I should say it was even better than I could have imagined."

Originally, in Kamiyu's vision, it was enough to eliminate the operations of the Secret Intelligence Bureau, kill Carares, the governor of District 11, and create rumors of Zero's comeback. After all, Zero is the highest-level wanted criminal in the Empire, and in the eyes of normal people, in the face of the Empire's pursuit, Zero's best choice is to hide and slowly accumulate strength in order to plan for the future. It's just that I didn't expect Lelouch to be so bold and issue a declaration of challenge to the world at the first time of his comeback.

Killing the Governor of the Imperial Colony, establishing a state on the territory of the Empire, and openly provoking the Bunitanian Empire is simply a slap in the face of Bunitania in front of the whole world.

I am afraid that the Emperor's order has been issued, and it seems that Kamiyu can already see the embarrassment of Honezel.

"Brother!"

But Yufemiaa was very unhappy with Kamiyu's actions.

"Why?"

Where Kamiyu had been waiting to watch the news in the morning, everyone could tell that he had known what was going to happen for a long time. What's more, the battleship that appeared in the news was simply the Goddess of Dawn in his brother's fleet. To say that this is not secretly led by Kamiyu, Yuphimia will never believe it.

"Because it needs to."

Kamiyu's answer stunned Yuphimia.

"I want to know the real answer."

"That's the real answer, and even the most beautiful excuses can't hide the result that I'm going to use Lelouch." "Lu Luxiu has obviously lost his memory, so can't he live a good life as an ordinary person?"

"Huh—" Kamiyu chuckled, raising her hand and rubbing Yuphemia's head.

"The emperor is just using Lelouch, the entire Axiuford Academy is completely set up to use Lelouch as a tool, after that, what do you think will happen to Lelouch who has lost his value?"

"This...."

The so-called tiger poison does not eat children, although he was born in the emperor's family, the emperor will not be.... It's really possible. Thinking of the law of the jungle preached by the Emperor, Euphemia suddenly hesitated.

"I, Lelouch are the ones who have been caught up in the maelstrom of this era, and all we can do is to keep important people as far away from this maelstrom as possible." Camillo, who said this, involuntarily closed his eyes.

For Lelouch, important people... Is it Nanali? So for Kamiyu, what is important to him?

But after thinking about it, Yuphimia suddenly thought of the woman who had a very close relationship with Kamiyu.

"What?"

“？” Kamiyu burst out laughing.

It's the center of this maelstrom!

...........

"Secretary Kurushevsky!"

"Monica, wait!!"

Several Knights of the Round Table managed to stop in front of Monica, who rushed out of the conference room with her sword in hand.

"You're trying to stop me?"

Monica clenched her sword as if she was ready to do it.

"What are you going to do, Secretary Kurushevsky?"

"His Highness the Shonezel." Monica turned to look at Honezel as she walked out from behind the group.

"I'm going to District 11!"

"....." Monica's eyes twinkled with determination.

The battleship that appeared on the TV news, and the weapons on it, Monica, who had grown up beside Camillo since she was a child, suddenly felt a strong Camillo style.

His Highness Kamiyu is not dead? But if His Highness isn't dead, why don't you contact yourself? Or was it the technology that Zero stole from His Highness Kamiyu? If so, it is even more unforgivable! What His Highness has left behind must not be defiled, especially the rats that are like stinking gutters.

In either case, you must go to District 11 to find out.

Guessing Monica's thoughts, Honezel was very difficult.

The Knights of the Round Table are directly under the Emperor, and Honezel does not have direct command power, and if it weren't for the relationship with the EU Raiders, he would not be able to command these Knights of the Round Table. Now that the war against the EU has essentially stopped, it makes sense and legally that Monica should leave.

But after Monica's trouble, Honezel also realized that there was more than one Knights of the Round Table who might be transferred. The governor of District 11 was killed, and a huge colony was left without a leader.

With Zero's comeback and the intervention of unknown forces, I am afraid that the Emperor will definitely send the Knights of the Round Table with strong force to sit in District 11. And the one who caught Zero was the fifth and seventh knights, and although it is not known what kind of secret there is between Suzaku and the emperor, the candidate will definitely be one of the two, or both of them will go together.

"Okay, I see." Schunezel nodded, as if he had made up his mind, and let out a sigh of relief.

Monica's question, Honezel also has it, in this case, it is better to let a mad dog go over to explore the way.

Okay, that's an exaggeration, but in Schunezel's opinion, Monica does have that potential.
