Wh-What the...?

What was that?

Thunder maybe?

A Thunder Spear.

But why?

Let's head in that direction.

It's... It's so quiet.

Am I dying?

"The day will soon come when we sit at

the same table once again."

Has it not happened exactly as I said it would?

Commander Pyxis?

Please let me thank you for taking such swift action.

Not only have you forbidden your troops from resisting us,

but in accordance with our demands,

you've also assembled every soldier

you have right here in Shiganshina.

Considering the trick you pulled with the spinal fluid,

we didn't have much of a choice.

Zeke could turn us into Titans at any moment.

And Shiganshina's been evacuated,

so it's the only safe place for us to be.

In any case. What else could I do,

with so many old comrades pointing guns at my back?

Please forgive me, Commander Pyxis.

My son drank the wine, too. I'm doing this to protect him.

When did you first betray us?

You've no obligation to answer that.

I'm sorry.

I only ask because the time at which you changed sides

seems to affect your standing in this new regime.

Betray us early and you're rewarded with a white armband.

It marks you as a proud Jaegerist, correct?

Red armbands are used to mark those who were

coerced into aiding the Jaegerists,

after learning they had drunk tainted wine.

And finally.

These black armbands mark the rest of us as ignorant fools

who drank the wine without suspecting something was amiss.

I can't help but be reminded of Marley.

They employed a similar system when they

took over your homelands, did they not?

There's much to be learned from our enemies.

Including how to make more, I see.

We offered to stand beside you as allies,

and you responded by having us imprisoned.

That may be, but since it turns out that

the guests we refused to trust

were serving us tainted wine all along,

I don't know if moving against you was foolish or wise.

Your actions were both foolish and wise.

I'd imagine that if you'd put your faith

in us and Zeke from the start,

the world could've already been saved by now.

Hm?

You say that "the world" could've been saved?

I was under the impression your plan was

to unite Zeke and Eren so that they can trigger

a small-scale Rumbling in order to deter the nations

of the world from attacking us for the next 50 years or so.

But that plan would only save this island, right?

Uh, Yelena?

It's too late at this point.

Zeke gave you all the time you should've needed.

And what did you do with that time?

You plotted to repay his mercy by killing him.

Zeke is the god who is fated to save this world.

And you have invited his wrath.

So what? Is there nothing we can do

but sit here and wait for things to play out?

Here. You like tea?

Yeah, thanks.

Hey, Armin.

Do you think you could bust us out of here by turning Titan?

'Fraid not. I'd blow up half the town if I tried.

The Colossal Titan is powerful, but it's far from precise.

Unlike Eren's Titan.

So. How did Eren end up beating you to a pulp, Armin?

I think it's about time you told us.

Eren was hurting Mikasa with his words.

So I hit him and he responded in kind.

Huh?

Wait, what do you mean, "he was hurting her"? What'd he say?

- -Well he... - -Stop.

It's fine.

No. It isn't fine.

Seriously, tell me what he said to you.

May as well just let it go, Jean.

We already knew that he'd turned into an absolute piece of shit.

But now he's lost his mind so completely,

that he went out of his way to hurt

the two people he used to care about most.

Assuming he hasn't just lost it, I don't see him doing that

without having some kind of reason.

I wonder.

Could he have some sort of hidden motive?

Heroes of Shiganshina.

It's always an honor to see you.

It pains me that our reunion

must take place across these bars.

No way. You're on their side, too? Let us out!

Seems like more than you have the right to ask for,

considering how you guys kept me as a prisoner.

Just sit here and wait.

Zeke and Eren will meet soon.

Why, you.

You must be proud, Yelena.

It seems like everything's happening

exactly as you planned.

First, you get Eren dancing to Zeke's tune.

Then, the raid on Marley

won you the Eldian people's support.

Which gave you free reign to use your poisoned wine

to take over the military.

Eldia's yours. As is the Founding Titan.

Now, you can crush Marley and avenge your homelands.

That's it, right?

The real reason that you volunteers came to this island?

We brought your country out of the past.

When we got here, this island was downright primitive.

Huh?

But you were really just setting it up for yourselves, right?

Making sure the place was worth ruling.

You were played for fools and defeated.

What else is there to be said?

Hey, Griez. Did you seriously betray us

just so that Yelena would make you one of her lackeys?

You little rat.

Are you stupid? I didn't take the side of these devils.

You did. You're the real traitor.

Say what?

You fell for some filth-blooded, potato-grubbing devil,

just because she liked your food.

Get over here. I'll kill you!

Stop, Nicolo! Calm down!

The way you would blather about her

day and night was sickening.

Can't believe I was stupid enough to think that

you'd get a grip once that bitch died.

What did you just call her?

I'll make it easy to understand.

That spawn-of-the-devil whore deserved ex...

Yelena?

I apologize for his rudeness.

This island no longer has any need for those

who would curse you as devils.

Please believe me when I tell you

that the goal we've been working towards

is not so petty or hollow as taking revenge on Marley.

It is to sever the chains of hate from this world,

and in doing so, to save both Eldia and Marley.

We're done with secrets.

It's high-time you learned the truth.

Let me lay out the plan that will save the world.

Zeke's so-called "euthanization" plan.

They're all vicious devils.

So, why haven't they killed me yet?

Brat who killed Sasha, you're coming with me.

Huh? What do you want?

If you're hoping to save Falco, you'll help me.

H-Help you? How?

You'll put out a distress call on the radio

to lure out any spies who've infiltrated the walls.

Don't move. Gabi. Stay quiet.

Pieck, you...!

I said quiet.

Now then. Just to be doubly sure.

It's Eren Jaeger, correct?

Gabi. Take that rifle and point it at Eren.

Gabi.

Eren. Move your hands from your pockets.

And what'll you do if I don't?

I'll fire this pistol.

And then you'll be dead. Brains on the floor.

Ever seen that?

You won't have time to transform.

Okay. So why haven't you shot me?

If you aren't here to pull that trigger,

then what did you come here to do?

What'll happen if I keep my hands in my pockets?

Doesn't seem like that's something

you'll ever get to know,

seeing as your brains will be on the fl...

I do know. You aren't gonna shoot.

Because you weren't given permission

to kill the Founding Titan.

You've been told to retrieve it, no matter what.

But in order to do that, you'd need to get me to stay still

while you transformed into a Titan and ate me alive.

That right?

What do I do?

Stand down.

Take your finger off the trigger, Gabi.

Huh?

If you were to defy your orders by shooting me,

you wouldn't pay the price alone.

Your family in the zone would pay it with you.

Yeah, you're right. I won't shoot you.

And it doesn't look like I'm likely to

get a chance to eat you, either. So that's that.

Seriously?

You found my Titan's footprints

from when I first snuck onto the island, right?

I still think I did all right.

This was a hell of a time to try and infiltrate

your military without getting thrown in jail.

But I actually have another reason not to shoot you.

If you can use the Founding Titan's power,

then you have the strength to defeat Marley, don't you?

You made the world your enemy.

You wouldn't have done that unless you knew

you had a chance of winning, right?

What do you know that I don't?

Do you have more than just the Founder?

Hold on, Pieck. What are you doing?

Gabi. You can put the rifle down now.

Suppose I did. What is it that you want?

Freedom for all Eldians.

And an end to their subjugation by Marley

and the rest of the world.

Also. I want to get my family out of the internment zone.

I became a Warrior to help my father,

the one person I can call family,

get proper medical care.

He got the treatment he needed and survived,

but knowing that my term will be over soon,

he's been inconsolable.

Before I die and leave him on his own,

I want to show him that Eldia has a bright future.

And for that to happen,

Marley's great empire needs to be crushed.

There's nothing I won't do toward that end.

So long as we can slaughter all the Marleyans.

I'll help you however I can.

First I found out that Zeke

planned the attack on Liberio.

And now... Now you?

I thought we were trying to show the world we're good Eldians!

If we just work hard and prove that,

then one day, we'll be set free!

Tell me. What have we been fighting for if not that?

You're the same as Zeke... A worthless traitor!

Let me ask you.

What are we?

Are we Marleyan? Or Eldian?

Which one comes first?

We're Marleyans first. Honorary Marleyans.

Not so. Above all else, we're Subjects of Ymir.

That's one truth which we can never escape.

No matter what we call ourselves,

we're a people who can turn or be turned into Titans.

But as both of us saw at Fort Slava.

The power of Titans is on its way out as we speak.

Once it becomes obsolete,

the Marleyans will have no use for us.

They'll slaughter us without a second thought!

It doesn't matter how hard we work

to try and prove that we're "good" Eldians.

They will put us down like animals

before they ever set us free.

We have to secure our right to live with our own hands,

even it means getting them dirty.

I need proof.

If you honestly intend to cooperate with us,

then back up your words with action.

I'll show you where to find the soldiers

who snuck into town with me.

Wha...?

How exactly?

If you take me up to the roof of this building,

I can point them out for you.

Fine.

They'll change our bodies so we stop having children?

Correct.

That is the heart of Zeke's euthanization plan.

Once the Founder's power has done all its work,

all suffering related to Titans will slowly come to an end.

You'll fade away. Peacefully.

Wait. How is that gonna be peaceful?

If the population of Eldians withers

until we've all died out,

then in this country's final years,

it'll be nothing but old geezers.

How can we be sure we won't get massacred then?

You think the world's just gonna leave us alone?

The Rumbling can remain as a deterrent,

as long as your people retain control of the Founder,

whilst ensuring that the royal bloodline doesn't die out.

Fortunately, it seems Queen Historia

has already been blessed with an heir.

So, assuming her child lives a long life,

you just need to pass on the Founder every 13 years.

You talk as if that's an absolute certainty,

but it isn't.

"Certainties." "Sure things." They aren't real.

Our world is full of risk and doubt.

There isn't a nation in it that doesn't have

its share of troubles.

If there's one thing that is certain,

it's that this era of tears and bloodshed is almost over.

The age of Titans will soon be put to an end by Zeke and Eren.

There may be countless millennia

of human history that've yet to pass,

but even given that much time,

will anyone ever accomplish an equal feat?

The Jaeger Brothers will be spoken of as

legendary symbols for thousands of years to come.

Just as we speak today of ancient gods.

Long after they're dead,

they'll shine in mankind's memory.

They'll be known as saviors who lit a path...

Is something the matter?

No. But to think that your cause was so noble.

It just touched my heart!

That's wonderful to hear.

I'm so glad that you're able to understand.

Bad news, Yelena!

We need you to come quick, please!

We're being invaded!

The enemy's arrived!

I hear someone was killed!

Apparently, the Cart Titan is here!

Seriously?

Yeah! Did she betray Marley?

That's what Jaeger said.

That's odd. What's all the commotion about?

So is it safe to say that you've decided

to let us defect to your side?

If you actually give up the other infiltrators.

Until you do, I'm keeping you cuffed to the kid.

If you try to turn into a Titan, she'll be burned to ash.

That's understandable.

And don't worry, the kid'll come around soon enough.

That dainty thing is a Marleyan soldier?

Think we can trust her?

Hello, everyone!

Uh, hey. What did you do with Falco?

He's around here, too.

But it seems he drank some of Zeke's spinal fluid.

How'd it happen?

Who knows?

All I heard was that the dosed wine got in his mouth somehow.

Did it happen when I...?

What's wrong?

This is completely my fault. Again.

I see now. You took over the military

by way of Zeke's spinal fluid.

Do you have any idea why he possesses such a unique ability?

None at all. I don't suppose you would know.

'Course not.

Only one person knows.

And that's Zeke himself.

Ever since I met him, it's felt as though every word

that came out of his mouth was a lie.

Four years ago, I confirmed that hunch.

When I finally heard him speak sincerely, to you.

"Believe me, Eren. I get it. I know how you feel.

Someday, I'll come back and save you from this."

If he wouldn't lie to you, then surely he would've

told you the secret of his special power.

At the very least,

I assume he's told you that it's connected

to drawing out the power of the Founding Titan.

Hey there.

Why'd you go and shave your beard?

I thought it suited you.

Eren. That woman is exceedingly dangerous.

It isn't safe to trust her.

I know. And I don't trust her any more than she trusts me.

So. Why haven't you used the Founder's power yet?

Where's Zeke?

You'll find that out soon enough.

Now show me. Where is the enemy?

Right there.

What the hell?

I think it's beginning.

The Titans have started to move.

Is that you, Galliard?

Didn't quite get him, but it was worth a shot.

Wait, Pieck! You're not actually a traitor?

Gabi! You really thought I'd sell out my comrades?

Well, you said if we kept fighting for Marley,

- -we'd end up getting put down! - -Look up there.

I don't trust Marley one bit.

Having said that, I trust the comrades

who've fought at my side completely.

There's the smoke signal.

Pieck and Galliard tracked him down

and forced him out into the open.

The Founder is here.

Let's pay him back for Liberio!

I want that bastard dead!

Bring it on, then.

Reiner!
