Big Order (ビッグオーダー)

What if you could have any wish granted?

What if that wish were to become your power?

For whom should you use that power?

For yourself?

Or perhaps...

For someone precious to you?

Kyuushuu Declares War Great Destruction Culprit Seen in Dazaifu Government Office

Kyuushuu has declared war upon the world.

The news has quickly spread across the world.

Hoshimiya Eiji

However, the masses are more surprised by the ringleader than the declaration.

He's...

He's...

He's...

Hoshimiya Eiji

Hoshimiya Eiji!

Yes, by the Order who destroyed the world, Hoshimiya Eiji.

Order! Execute Strategies!

Sena...

I suppose she is just like Sleeping Beauty.

Only six months left to live...

However, as long as Lieutenant Franc keeps her time stopped,

Sena-sama will never age and her illness will not advance.

Once she wakes and her time resumes, her remaining time will count down.

I'll fulfill the goal before then!

And just as you wish...

As we wish?

I will rule the world!

And...

I'll build a new world... for Orders.

Well done.

As expected of our king, you are very promising.

When this succeeds,

we'll focus all of our power on finding a cure for Sena.

As you wish.

Let me out of here!

Hey, are you listening to me?

I'm the one who will kill Eiji.

Let me out of here right now!

What, no straight jacket for me?

It's cold in here!

Second Lieutenant Kurenai Rin, step out.

What? You're awfully quick this time.

I thought I'd be stuck here at least a week.

Just hurry out!

Sena's practically being held hostage.

They've turned me into the leader of a worldwide coup d'état.

I can no longer turn back...

But it also means I have a chance to save Sena!

I'll be the one to use these guys!

Now then, I'd like to begin to explain our operation to take Yamaguchi.

Capturing Yamaguchi is a crucial first step

in the Dazaifu Government Office's world domination.

UNIGM seems to be leaving Yamaguchi's governance to an Order

who possesses the power of petrification.

We call her the Ferocious Heavy Rock Star.

Petrification?

Petrification won't cure Sena's illness...

Furthermore, Eiji-sama will be key to our strategy for conquering Yamaguchi.

Huh?

Wait a minute!

You mean you're sending me to the front lines?

Why am I going to the front lines?

Aren't you supposed to be fighting there?

Hey, Hiiragi, I'm your king, right?

Why send your king to the front lines?

My explanation isn't finished!

More importantly, I have an idea.

W-We should strengthen our defenses.

I'll go around Kyuushuu's coast, placing it under my domain.

Then I'll dominate anyone trying to land.

Well? It's good idea, right?

What a laid-back strategy...

All right! Fine, let's hear your strategy.

I cannot discuss it further.

Huh?!

Please consider that withholding some details now is part of the operation.

This is outrageous!

Hey, Hiiragi!

As the colonel's subordinate, I, Kunou Mari,

will not tolerate action that impedes their strategy.

I am a professional tactician.

By contrast,

you are a puppet!

A student who plays at being king should just follow orders!

Damn it! Who's controlling whom here?

For now, I've walked the Government Office's perimeter, placed it

under my domain, and ordered the Group of Ten not to leave.

But it still doesn't feel like the Group of Ten serves me...

No, they're calling me a puppet because I'm just not that impressive.

Damn it! If I had more power...

It's all right.

Huh?

My divinations say it will be all right.

Line's open. We can start anytime.

All right. Start broadcasting.

Roger. Beginning broadcast.

He's the prime minister?

You don't recognize him?

I wasn't interested in politics...

He's a famous moron.

I will handle the discussion.

You just follow my lead.

Now, I would like to begin our audience.

Right, I don't mind at all.

So, you're Hoshimiya Eiji-kun?

I wondered how imposing you'd be, since you plotted a coup d'état.

But you're young, aren't you?

Yes, Eiji-sama is a man of excellence.

Listen to you...

Now, let us get to the point.

Oh, hold on a moment.

See, I don't use my head for much more than tracking golf or mahjong scores,

so it isn't clear to me.

Huh?

I'd like to confirm one matter.

The Dazaifu Government Office is being dominated by Eiji-kun,

and following him against their will.

That's your stance, correct?

Yes, precisely.

This location is under Eiji-sama's dominion.

Mm. Mm... Mm, understood.

You can start, then.

These are Kantou-area family members of the Group of Ten.

They will now be executed for conspiring to commit treason.

That won't be a problem, right?

Then, we'll begin the execution.

But if you are truly under Hoshimiya Eiji's control and unable to resist,

you'll just have to watch in silence, won't you?

Don't worry... My nephew will do something about your aunt.

You're up first, you pawn of Hoshimiya Eiji.

Th-That was...

My uncle.

First one down.

Anything you'd like to say?

Then, on to the next.

Second one down.

Y-You think this is all right for anyone, even a national head of state, to do?

Of course it isn't right...

It's inhumane.

Yes, ten years ago, this would never have been allowed.

But you are the one who created this mad world, Hoshimiya Eiji-kun.

Kill them! Kill them! Kill them!

Third one down...

Well? Want to say anything?

Kengo!

Are you mad, Prime Minister?

This is being broadcast to the entire nation!

You're right... My apologies to those who were eating.

However, you understand, don't you?

With Kyuushuu's fall into Hoshimiya Eiji-kun's hands,

the UN has called an emergency assembly.

At this rate, Japan is in danger of disappearing, along with Kyuushuu.

Now, for the fourth...

Ah, this one's a child?

It pains my heart, but...

If he's Hoshimiya Eiji's stooge, it's necessary.

Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!

Kengo!

Wait.

Kill as many as you want, but it won't matter.

We're testing to see if it will or not.

Now, what will you do?

You have it backwards.

Killing hostages only matters when I do it, old man.

He shot his allies? No way.

For a while, we've been wary of the Dazaifu Government Office rebelling.

Saying the Great Destruction's leader was blackmailing them was clever.

Whether Hoshimiya Eiji was the real deal didn't matter.

Even if their coup failed, they could place all the blame on him.

Or so I thought, but was I wrong?

Hoshimiya Eiji...

You used your power to stop the bullet?

It was a performance to save the hostages.

Die, Eiji!

Huh? Hey, Rin!

What are you doing here?

This isn't the time!

He killed her... Without a doubt.

I, Hoshimiya Eiji, alongside my nation of Kyuushuu, formally declare war!

If you don't want to end up like this, surrender to us!

That hurt...

Why is Rin here?

Did she escape?

No, she wouldn't die, even if I shot her.

In fact, shooting her proves I'm acting against the Dazaifu Government Office.

But the only one who'd think of that ploy is...

Hiiragi!

Squad one, over.

Kanmon Tunnel, Kyuushuu Entrance

We've secured an infiltration point on the Kyuushuu side of Kanmon Tunnel.

Ready to move on command.
