[00:31] NTP---
Wh-Who are you?
[00:42] NTP---
Charge!
[00:43] NTP---
Kick their ass!
[00:48] NTP---
Wh-What are you...
[00:50] NTP---
You aren't on our side?
[00:57] NTP---
Who is that group of soldiers?
[01:01] NTP---
That's...
[02:34] NTP---
Ray of Light
[02:39] NTP---
Dude, that's awesome!
[02:43] NTP---
That's gross!
[03:31] NTP---
I can't collapse now.
[03:46] NTP---
Alice?
[03:47] NTP---
Don't overdo it, Asuna.
Leave the rest to us, the Integrity Knights.
[03:52] NTP---
But those red soldiers are from the real world.
[03:56] NTP---
They're enemies who came from my world.
[04:02] NTP---
Even so, if they're merely a bloodthirsty lot,
haphazardly flailing their swords,
[04:08] NTP---
there's nothing to fear
even if there are thousands of them.
[04:10] NTP---
Exactly!
[04:12] NTP---
How about sharing a little bit of the glory?
[04:24] NTP---
Everyone. Thank you.
[04:29] NTP---
All right!
[04:32] NTP---
All troops, form a phalanx!
We're going for a single-point breakthrough!
[04:58] NTP---
I-I have to inform the emperor
that we're aborting the mission.
[05:30] NTP---
Ch-Champion!
[05:47] NTP---
Ch-Champ...
[05:57] NTP---
The emperor didn't give us any orders
regarding those red soldiers.
[06:03] NTP---
Isn't that right?
[06:04] NTP---
Yes, that's correct, but...
[06:06] NTP---
Then if we were to slaughter them,
it would have nothing to do with the emperor.
[06:13] NTP---
Champion.
[06:16] NTP---
Listen. Once a bridge goes up over the valley,
charge in with the entire army.
[06:21] NTP---
Whatever it takes,
you have to rescue our people on the other side!
[06:24] NTP---
Huh? Bridge? How—
[06:27] NTP---
It's obvious.
[06:30] NTP---
Ask someone who can do it.
[06:38] NTP---
If I can't cross the ropes,
[06:43] NTP---
then I'll just have to jump it myself!
[06:54] NTP---
Champion!
[07:14] NTP---
Damn it!
[07:47] NTP---
Stop.
[07:49] NTP---
Stop.
[07:52] NTP---
Stop!
[08:07] NTP---
Take this!
[08:33] NTP---
They're all weak.
[08:35] NTP---
A person from the Dark Territory?
[08:49] NTP---
Amazing.
[08:53] NTP---
Let's make a deal.
[08:54] NTP---
Deal?
[08:58] NTP---
Yes. You're the one who made those fissures
and that giant chasm, right?
[09:03] NTP---
Yes.
[09:04] NTP---
Listen. Put a bridge across the crack behind me.
It can be narrow, as long as it's sturdy.
[09:08] NTP---
Do that, and my 4,000 pugilists will fight with you
until we annihilate every one of those red soldiers.
[09:15] NTP---
The Dark Territory Army will fight with us?
[09:20] NTP---
I don't think this man would lie.
[09:29] NTP---
All right.
[09:31] NTP---
I'll build a bridge over the chasm.
[10:17] NTP---
They're...
[10:18] NTP---
anomalies!
[10:22] NTP---
Move.
[10:24] NTP---
Move!
[10:34] NTP---
System Call.
[10:38] NTP---
Discharge!
[10:44] NTP---
I'll incinerate them
all at once from the top of that hill!
[10:47] NTP---
Move!
[10:49] NTP---
Little one, don't run off by...
[10:59] NTP---
Little one!
[11:02] NTP---
Enhance Arma...
[11:09] NTP---
You bastard!
What are you doing to my apprentice?
[11:17] NTP---
Get out of the way!
[11:19] NTP---
Release Recollection!
[11:24] NTP---
Knight Commander, please go!
[11:27] NTP---
Sorry! I'll leave the rest to you!
[11:42] NTP---
Go!
[12:18] NTP---
Amazing.
[12:20] NTP---
Being impressed isn't going to cut it.
[12:23] NTP---
If we do make it south,
what are we going to do then?
[12:27] NTP---
Defeating that many enemies
might be difficult, even for us.
[12:32] NTP---
When you break through the enemy lines
and make it south,
[12:34] NTP---
keep advancing,
and distance yourselves from the enemy.
[12:38] NTP---
I'll create another fissure
and isolate the enemy.
[12:42] NTP---
A message! A message!
[12:45] NTP---
Integrity Knight Alice has been carried away
by the enemy commander on his dragon!
[12:49] NTP---
The dragon seems to have flown to the south.
[12:52] NTP---
Wh...
[12:53] NTP---
Did you say the emperor flew away?
[12:57] NTP---
So he wasn't just looking on
as a spectator earlier?
[13:00] NTP---
Hey, woman!
[13:01] NTP---
Alice is the Priestess of Light, isn't she?
[13:03] NTP---
Why does the emperor want her so badly?
[13:06] NTP---
What's going to happen
if the emperor captures the Priestess of Light?
[13:12] NTP---
This world will be destroyed.
[13:16] NTP---
When the Dark God Vecta seizes Alice,
the Priestess of Light,
[13:20] NTP---
and reaches the World End's Altar,
[13:22] NTP---
this world, both the Human Empire
and the Dark Territory,
[13:25] NTP---
will be returned to nothingness.
[13:32] NTP---
Dragons can't fly forever.
[13:35] NTP---
The most they can fly
without a break is half a day.
[13:39] NTP---
Then it looks like you'll have to put
your spirit into it and give chase, right?
[13:42] NTP---
"Give chase"? But you...
[13:46] NTP---
Aren't you with the Dark Territory Army?
Why would you say that?
[13:50] NTP---
Emperor Vecta told us, the council of ten,
in so many words,
[13:56] NTP---
that all he was after was the Priestess of Light.
[14:00] NTP---
The moment he flew away with the priestess,
the emperor's goal was achieved.
[14:04] NTP---
In other words,
[14:06] NTP---
whatever we do now,
[14:09] NTP---
even if it's helping the Human Empire Army
steal back the priestess from the emperor,
[14:15] NTP---
it's our choice.
[14:18] NTP---
Isn't that right?
[14:21] NTP---
I... We... can't defy the emperor directly.
[14:26] NTP---
If the emperor gives us another order
to fight all of you,
[14:31] NTP---
we have to obey.
[14:33] NTP---
So we, the pugilists guild,
will stop the red soldiers here.
[14:37] NTP---
I want you and the Human Empire Army
to go after the emperor.
[14:41] NTP---
And then tell the emperor... that bastard...
[14:47] NTP---
Let that bastard know!
[14:49] NTP---
That we're not his damned puppets!
[14:56] NTP---
All right!
[14:58] NTP---
Everyone! Hold that breach!
[15:03] NTP---
And you two get out of here.
We can only hold out for so long.
[15:08] NTP---
Thank you.
[15:09] NTP---
I will remain here, too.
[15:12] NTP---
Understood. Please take care of the rearguard.
[15:22] NTP---
Are you sure about this, woman?
[15:24] NTP---
I already told you my name.
[15:27] NTP---
Are you sure about this, Sheyta?
There's no guarantee that you'll live through this.
[15:31] NTP---
I'll be the one to slash you.
[15:33] NTP---
They can't have you.
[15:36] NTP---
Whatever!
[15:40] NTP---
All right! Come on, everyone,
show me some fire!
[15:46] NTP---
Circular formation!
[15:47] NTP---
All-around defense!
[15:49] NTP---
Any morons that come near us, give them hell!
[15:54] NTP---
You're fired up, huh, Champion?
[15:59] NTP---
Yeah!
[16:00] NTP---
Tuesday, July 7, 2026 6:01 AM Ocean Turtle
[16:09] NTP---
Oh, hey! You're awake, huh?
[16:12] NTP---
I figured your brain cells got fried up.
[16:15] NTP---
Shut up.
[16:17] NTP---
That's right.
[16:19] NTP---
I fell into a bottomless hole, and...
[16:23] NTP---
How exactly did you die over there?
[16:26] NTP---
You've been out for eight hours!
[16:29] NTP---
E-Eight hours?
[16:32] NTP---
Don't be so surprised.
[16:35] NTP---
Don't worry. At the time of your death in there,
the acceleration rate went down to 1:1.
[16:41] NTP---
D-Did you say 1:1?
[16:43] NTP---
Hey! You know what that means,
right, Four Eyes?
[16:47] NTP---
Twelve hours from now,
the JSDF command is going to attack this place.
[16:52] NTP---
Yeah I know.
[16:53] NTP---
These are all Captain Miller's orders.
[16:57] NTP---
Right now, I'm sending U.S. players
into the Dark Territory via a satellite connection.
[17:04] NTP---
What?
[17:08] NTP---
This is the movement log
for you and the captain.
[17:12] NTP---
Right now, the captain's gone past where you died,
and is heading further south.
[17:16] NTP---
And he's left behind the entire Dark Territory forces
in the north. He's going solo.
[17:21] NTP---
What that means is...
[17:23] NTP---
He's either chasing Alice,
or has already captured her, huh?
[17:28] NTP---
Yeah, but there's one problem. Look at this.
[17:34] NTP---
What's marked in red
is the horde of U.S. players.
[17:37] NTP---
And the black part surrounded by the red
is the Dark Territory Army.
[17:42] NTP---
The problem is this white group here,
or what's barely left of it, that is.
[17:47] NTP---
That's the Human Empire Army.
There're at least 700 of them.
[17:50] NTP---
If they catch up to the captain,
it's going to be a pain.
[17:53] NTP---
I have to stop them somehow.
[17:56] NTP---
Stop them, sure, but how?
[18:01] NTP---
These are the U.S. players
waiting for the second connection.
[18:05] NTP---
Once it hits 20,000, I'm going to flood
the Human Empire Army's position with them.
[18:09] NTP---
That's twenty-eight times the combat power.
They'll be crushed instantly!
[18:13] NTP---
And then I'll set the acceleration rate
back to 1,000:1.
[18:16] NTP---
That should give the captain plenty of time
[18:19] NTP---
to capture Alice and reach
the southernmost system console.
[18:24] NTP---
I hope it'll go that smoothly.
[18:27] NTP---
The Human Empire Army
is tougher than you think.
[18:30] NTP---
Those Integrity Knights are especially insane.
[18:34] NTP---
They did mow down
the entire first wave of the Dark Territory Army.
[18:38] NTP---
Otherwise, I never would've been defeated
in such a... shameful...
[18:45] NTP---
Lightning Flash.
[18:47] NTP---
That's right! There's no mistaking it.
[18:49] NTP---
It was definitely that woman!
[18:51] NTP---
Huh? What are you saying?
[18:54] NTP---
Hey, you stupid geek!
[18:56] NTP---
Those Rath guys holed up in the second control room
are doing the same thing as us!
[19:01] NTP---
There's a Japanese VRMMO player
mixed in with the Human Empire Army!
[19:06] NTP---
What?
[19:07] NTP---
If Lightning Flash Asuna is there,
that could mean that he did a dive, too.
[19:13] NTP---
Are you serious?
I can't just sit here like this!
[19:16] NTP---
Hey! I'm going back in!
[19:19] NTP---
Send me to the white group's location
at the same time as the 20,000 reinforcements.
[19:23] NTP---
Even if you want to go back, there's no dark knight
account anymore since you wasted it.
[19:28] NTP---
If you're okay with one of the reinforcement's
grunt account, I have plenty of those.
[19:32] NTP---
I have an account. A real special one!
[20:20] NTP---
I leave the rest in your hands.
[20:27] NTP---
Oh no. Sir Renly is sacrificing himself
to break through.
[20:31] NTP---
Don't!
[21:11] NTP---
It can't shoot rapid-fire?
[21:12] NTP---
That's fine.
[21:14] NTP---
Single-shot weapons
are more fitting for me, anyway.
[21:34] NTP---
Sorry to keep you waiting, Asuna.
[21:44] NTP---
Shino-non!
[23:36] NTP---
Next time: The Great Underworld War.
