Kouta steels his will to save the world, and destroys Redyue with an inhuman power.
With the fall of King Roshuo, the Overlords are extinct at last.
But not before the golden fruit is placed within Mai's body...
Hey, cheer up.
You guys!
Kouta!
Sis! Are you okay?
I'm glad.
I'm so glad...
You must have been so worried.
Kouta.
Rat! Rica!
Whew...
Thank you guys so much.
Hey, no sweat.
We can't rest easy just yet.
Not until we've got them out of the city.
You're right.
I'll stay here and help.
You'll need extra hands.
But...
It's fine!
Quick, run!
Jounouchi! Charmant guy! Take them!
D'accord! Give them all you've got!
Get back, you guys!
Up, quickly!
Let's get started!
We've got this!
Kouta!
Miss!
Transform!

Got it, move... wow...
Don't say no, just live more!
It's survival, you gotta move
When life's in a warring state
Who's got the strength to win
Now that all the locks are open?
Don't say no, just live more!
Where will you find...
Don't say no, just live more!
And how will you use...
The forbidden fruit?
The wind of the moment has its own message to share
It's blowin' stronger and stronger till it reaches you
Your dreams and future may seem so far away...
When you've got all you can out of life, that's when you can stop
But don't let life get you down
Keep your head held high
Wherever you may go
Never compromise yourself
Follow the path you believe in, and just live more!
Don't say no, just live more!

Thanks...
Are you hurt or anything?
I'm fine.
Mai!
Mitchy!
What do you think you're doing here?
Mitchy...
Mai!
Hey, is she okay?
Get out of here!
- Hold on!
What's the matter, Mai?
Are you okay?
What... what was that?
So, the golden fruit...
Show me.
Sengoku Ryoma... what are you doing here?
Hey!
Oh dear.
She won't be able to take this for long.
And this is hardly a good place to treat her...
Let's take her to a hospital.
Can you help me move her?
But there aren't any doctors left in Zawame!
Just leave it to me.

Kouta, are you okay?
Yeah.
Nice work.
Thanks.
But...
The Overlords are gone, but Helheim hasn't stopped...
Of course.
The Overlords only advanced Helheim's invasion.
Defeating them won't make it stop.
So... I have to stop Helheim myself...
Does it really need stopping?
Why concern ourselves with preserving this world?
Shouldn't it be allowed to evolve under Helheim?
That's just the same as what the Overlords did!
They were weak.
So the forest consumed them.
If we are as weak, our end will simply be the same.
Where's all this coming from now?
Didn't we fight to save the city?
I just couldn't suffer the Overlords' brutality.
Protecting wasn't part of my agenda.
Hey, wait up, Kaito!
This isn't over! Get back here!
Kaito!
Well, at least everyone's okay.
Yeah.
Where's Mai?
She came back before we did.
Then she'd be at the garage?
You should go get Mai.
You're right.
Zack, keep her safe.
On it!
Let's regroup at Bandou's.
Right!
What a dump of a hospital...
In here.
Mai!
Chucky!
Peko!
What is it, Kaito?
Show me.
Don't touch me!
This is...
It's nothing... forget about it.
Why do we have to sit and wait outside?
It's locked.
I knew it! Why'd we trust that creep again?
Hey, open up!
I said open up!
Mitchy!
There's no doubt. The golden fruit is right there, inside Mai's body.
Why?
Why did it have to be Mai?
Yes, that is the question.
Why did Roshuo give it to Mai?
Because she's going to be the Woman of the Beginning.
Sagara...
The man chosen by the Woman of the Beginning is the champion who will claim the golden fruit.
The fruit is to be passed down according to the legends of each race.
So, the Woman of the Beginning herself receives the fruit...
from me.
What are you?
We are that which spreads ceaselessly.
We are that which spreads beyond the sky.
We are that which spurs the outmoded to revolution...
But then, we have also been simply called a snake.
A snake?
Yeah.
That's right.
Actually, let's go with the name you yourselves gave us.
In which case, our name... is Helheim.
Sagara...
You're the forest of Helheim itself?
What's... happening to me?
Just what Roshuo said, right?
It's your role to see this through.
See what through?
The end, and the new beginning.
For the new age to begin, the old world has to be destroyed.
No!
I don't want to see the world end!
It's not your choice.
The future is on its way, and you can't stop it.
...no one can.
That's outrageous!
If you're the forest of Helheim, why are you trying to destroy humanity?
Destruction is just my tool of choice.
The goal is to take humanity to its next stage of evolution.
What's the point of that?
I want fish to grow into lizards.
I want monkeys to become humans.
Beyond that, I can't tell you the point.
I wanted that ever since I was born,
and it's why I traveled across the universe rewriting world after world.
I don't care!
I just wanted to save Mai! That's it!
You can't back out now.
You've already chosen your fate.
Just like Kazuraba Kouta and Kumon Kaito.
You're all on the paths you've chosen for yourselves.
But where you'll each ultimately stand...
Well, I'll be watching to the end.
So...
We won, right?
Everything's good now, right?
Of course not.
The cracks are still popping up.
This isn't even near over.
What do we do now?
For now, you all just eat!
Eat!
Humans can fix anything with a good meal.
Merci.
What's taking Kouta, though?
Mai!
Chucky! Peko!
I can't believe you're still alive.
I can hold back the infection by wearing the Driver.
Not forever, though!
You... you're going to die.
Then this is far as I was ever going to go.
Did you mean what you said before?
About what?
That Helheim doesn't need to be stopped.
Do you really think so?
Why not?
I have no interest in saving this world.
There was nothing I wanted in the peace this world used to have.
I think the only place I can belong now...
is out there in the apocalypse.
The world, or my existence...
Which one will end first?
What?
You agree with Kazuraba, do you, that I'm wrong?
Well...
I'm not entirely convinced.
But I decided to stick by you to the end.
That's your choice.
I'm not sure if Mai will be able to retain her humanity for very long.
I think it's likely the golden fruit will convert her into an Overlord.
Mai's going to become a monster...
The only way to save her will be to extract the fruit from her body.
You can do that?
Leave it to me.
One small problem, however...
Kazuraba Kouta.
What do you mean?
He needs the golden fruit's power to save the world.
So he'll want Mai to become the "Woman of the Beginning”, I'm sure.
You think he'd sacrifice Mai to save the world...?
He wouldn't...
How naive.
Kazuraba Kouta is an anomaly.
A man willing to turn himself into an Overlord.
And you expect him to be concerned with her well-being?
We cannot let him interfere with Mai's operation.
But the power he wields is overwhelming.
Even a Genesis Driver would be hard-pressed to overwhelm him now.
So!
What's that?
A prototype, locked away because it was too dangerous to use.
It drains the life from its user, and converts it into immense energy.
The Hell Fruit Lockseed.
This is your only hope of standing up to Kazuraba Kouta.
But of course, your life will be at stake.
To give your life for the woman you love...
Well, Mitsuzane?
Do you have the resolve to make that sacrifice?
It's a lot to ask.
Think it over.
Please, Mai...
Don't look at me like that...
Smile for me, like you used to!
Why... why can't I remember...?
Why can't I remember what your smile was like?
What was I trying to protect?
What the heck was I fighting for?
Let this vision burn into your mind.
This is the result that your actions have brought you.
You've done nothing but deceive and betray people.
You have no right to demand their affection.
Even so, you...
...are the only light left in my life.
I'll do anything for you...
Even give up my own life.
Your life has no value.
It can't possibly buy one like hers.
You will die, having accomplished nothing.
Just... shut up, will you?
Okay...
Be careful!
Mai... where have you gone?
Mitsuzane...
Kazuraba Kouta.
I'm here to finish you.
Just stop.
There's no reason for us to hurt each other any more!
There is absolutely nothing I can say I've achieved.
But I can still protect her...!
What is that Lockseed...?
I'll protect Mai, no matter what happens to me...
Compared to her, my own life is...

You're really resolved to go this far?
