Last Story - Defeat Perry! The true opening of Japan to the world!!

>Bottom R Frame
…Zero, I’d like to ask you just one thing

>Bottom L Frame
To you, what is the meaning of true restoration?

[116] --------------------------------------------
>Top R Frame
You already know the answer!!

>Top L Frame
The present Japan is being forced into a fake opening!!

>Bottom Frame
--R Bubble
Currently, there are many foreigners, starting from the Britannians, coming to Japan
--L Bubble
But how about the opposite?

[117] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
--R Bubble
The Britannian…no, Admiral Perry is controlling the Japanese
--L Bubble
Let alone visiting foreign countries, the Japanese can’t even move as they please within their own country
--Sign (already translated, want some synonyms?)
No entry/no trespassing

>Middle Frame
--R Bubble
I stood up in order to change that
--L Bubble
And aimed for the true restoration, in other words-

>Bottom Frame
--R Bubble
The true opening of Japan!
--L Bubble
That’s the true aim of ours, The Black Restoration Order

[118-119] --------------------------------------------
>R Frame
--Upper Bubble
Zero, I now understand your intention……, since this is the case, we should be able to help each other
--Lower Bubble
Zero…, no,-

[120] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
--R Bubble
W-what the hell are you saying!!?
--L Bubble
To join forces with them is the same as rebelling against Britannia!!!

>Middle Frame
This is what Euphemia-sama told me

>Bottom Frame
--R Bubble
At the present time, there is someone who wishes to make Japan a property of his own
--L Bubble
We cannot let him do as he pleases any longer

[121] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
--R Bubble
This person has already gained an unusually influential power even in this country
--L Bubble
Influental power…, it can’t be!?

>Bottom Frame
--R Bubble
Yes, his name is….
--Mid Bubble
-----the Admiral of the Pacific Ocean armada
--L Bubble
……That’s right

[122] --------------------------------------------
>R Frame
It’s you! Perry!!!

>L Frame
Hmph, it’s about time you understood

[123] --------------------------------------------
>Top R Frame
You fool

>Bottom R Frame
Damn you…, noisy brats…

>Bottom L Frame
It is inevitable that our plan has reached the mainland!

[124] --------------------------------------------
--Upper Bubble
Launch every Knightmare!

--Lower Bubble
Wipe out the Black Restoration Order altogether!!

[125] --------------------------------------------
>Top R Frame
Lelouch

>Top L Frame
Aah

>Bottom R Frame
--Upper Bubble
Members of the Black Restoration Order! No, to all who aim for the true restoration
--Lower Bubble
We will now join forces with Britannia and bring down Perry!!

>Bottom L Frame (upper)
Perry is our true enemy!

>Bottom L Frame (lower)
All units! Strike down the Blackship!!!

[126] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
That machine may be a new model, but in the end, it is but a mere mass production type

>Mid Frame (Holy cow! It’s a hadron-cannon-controlling abacus!!!)
Never underestimate-…
>Bottom Frame
This Shinkirou!!

[131] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
--R Bubble
Heheh, I’m the first one!
--L Bubble
Good work, Karen
Install the unit onto the ship deck!

>Mid Frame
Understood

>Bottom Frame
W-…what? An earthquake!?

[132] --------------------------------------------
>Top L Frame
The…the black ship! It’s collapsing!?

>Bottom R Frame
--Upper Bubble
Karen, you have to withdraw temporarily…!
--Lower Bubble
Wah! My foothold!?

>Bottom L Frame
Kyaaaaaa!

[133] --------------------------------------------
>Top L Frame
No, it’s not collapsing

>Bottom R Frame (a big face…without the drill…)

[136] --------------------------------------------
>Bottom R Frame

[137] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
--R Bubble
Did you see that!!? This is the power of a knightmare type airship!
--L Bubble
The Black Perry!!!

>Bottom R Frame
Gahahahahah!!

>Bottom L Frame
……Hmph

[138] --------------------------------------------
>Top R Frame
Your laugh offends my ears

>Top L Frame
What did you say!!?

>Bottom Frame
--R Bubble
Lelouch, what’s the plan?
--L Bubble
I have already executed the counter strategy for this very situation

[139] --------------------------------------------
>Top Frame
The unit that Guren installed on the deck was an “interior tracer”

>Bottom R Frame
--Upper Bubble
…So, the power source is located right here
--Lower Bubble
But how will you reach the power source?

>Bottom L Frame
--Upper Bubble
----No problem
--Lower Bubble
I’m counting on you, accomplice *heart*

[140] --------------------------------------------
>Mid Frame (Ahhh, C.C. and Gawain…, they shud’ve rebuild Gawain for C.C. rather than that pink Lancelot)
Honestly, you’re one heck of a slavedriver

>Bottom Frame
I’ll have you know that my fee is beyond expensive

[141] --------------------------------------------
>Top L Frame
Wha… what happened!?

>Bottom R Frame (upper)
Aaahh! The energy level is going down!!

>Bottom R Frame (lower)
I’ve no choice! I need to protect myself at least!!

>Bottom L Frame
Activate barrier!!!

[142] --------------------------------------------
>Top R Frame
--R Bubble
Suzaku!
--L Bubble
Right!

>Top L Frame
Perry is right behind that barrier!!

>Mid Frame

I’m sure this country would do well if we leave it to Suzaku

[153] --------------------------------------------
>R Frame (upper)
Shall we depart then?

>R Frame (lower)
Hmph…, I suppose so

>L Frame

Geass story in historical setting, rough draft no.1

What do you think if I make it like "Lone Wolf and Cub"?
Forced to give up their status, they want to avenge their mother or something.
Since it's quite identical to the original "Lone Wolf and Cub",
I thought it could be interesting if I mix them up.
The main charas are Lulu, Nunnally and Suzaku.
They'll somehow get involved with
different guest characters every time

--Text (Above the one-eyed Lelouch’s head)

>Bottom Frame

Hohoh, there was this kind of story, huh
--Text
My name is not in it though
--L Bubble
Guess even the author thinks some decent stuff once in a whi-…

Afterword

Hello, I am Ganjii
Firstly, thank you very much for buying this book.

Did you enjoy the reading?

To everyone who thought “I enjoyed it!”, thank you very much!
If we have a chance to meet again in the future, I’ll work hard so I can bring you a better work.

To everyone who thought “I didn’t enjoy it!”, I’m sorry!
If we have a chance to meet again in the future, I’ll work hard to improve myself so that I can bring you an even better work.

At any rate, although the work of making this “green” manga was very stressful every month, I managed to get through the end. I’m actually still in the middle of working on the tankoubon but I just thought it is kind of sad that the manga is ending. Oh, I made the closing longer than I suppose t-……
No, my tear is coming out.

Anyhow, I have been supported by a lot of people. To Muramatsu-san who is in charge of scenario, editor Aitou-san, Sunrise-san, and Yoshihara-sensei who was asked to help abruptly, thank you very much.

Last but not least, to everyone who read this manga until the end, thank you very much. I’m looking forward to seeing you again in the future.
