In the beginning was the Voice.
And the word was Him.
And all obeyed His word
in great awe.
But those who dwelt upon the earth,
through vanity, cunning and greed,
built a multitude of towers
whose tops reached unto heaven,
and hoarded the riches
of the world.
Scattered across the ravaged land,
man turned a deaf ear to His Voice.
But He gave unto man an opportunity
to atone for his misdeeds.
And flame and smoke and the roar
of a lion descended upon the earth,
and the many towers were
brought low into the dust.
Pay heed, thou who walkest with Him,
O faithful witnesses, holy and true.
For some are blind to their own
misdeeds and their ears hear naught
still after tribulation
has passed.
Deliver retribution upon the land
and those who dwell thereon,
and usher in a new world.
May mankind be freed from sin
and blessed with glory, honor
and descendants without end.
... at least six skyscrapers
have collapsed,
and several surrounding buildings
have suffered damage.
The whole area is in chaos
due to fires and dust.
While emergency rescue efforts
are responding to the crisis,
the situation is
far from being contained.
Although precise figures
are unknown,
the number of casualties
is said to be at least 10, 000.
Chinese authorities call
this blast a t*rror1st act,
and have declared martial law
in Shanghai.
At this time, no one is being
allowed in or out of the city.
This blast may be related to
the rash of skyscraper bombings
that began with the synchronized
att*ck in America on January 16th
causing Chicago's Willis Tower and
Seattle's Columbia Center collapse.
They must have been planning this
for a long time.
They b*at me to it...
Mom, I don't need
any dinner tonight.
Huh? No, not a date
or anything.
Hi.
Evening, Jet.
So this time it's Shanghai.
Yeah...
Damn, how long's it been?
Not since 9/11,
so 12 years, I guess.
How have you been?
If being meticulous about my
maintenance is "doing fine," fine.
You sound aggravated, mate.
What's bothering you?
Everything.
The media's take on these
su1c1de bombings bothers me.
Having a president
who jumps at shadows...
Being summoned by Gilmore...
The whole damn world bothers me.
Indeed.
Nevertheless, Dr. Gilmore
created us.
And when the world needs us,
we reunite with him to defend it.
That's our duty
as Zero zero number cyborgs.
GB, do you think the US government
is involved in this?
Israeli lobbyists would say
it's the MPs of my own Britain
who are itching to be exploited
by security businesses.
That's the long and short of it.
So, how about you?
Is your conscience clean
with nary a cloud in its sky?
Well, no matter.
If these su1c1de
bombings continue,
world order will start
falling apart soon.
When that happens, we'll be
long past having the luxury
of the state and the individual
keeping each other in check.
Shimamura!
What happened?
You hardly ever ask me out.
I thought I wouldn't look
suspicious with a date.
I love coffee.
Can you see the Tokyo Tower
from your room?
Not since D Tower
went up in front of it.
Why weren't you
at school today?
We're done with classes.
No reason to go anymore.
I've never seen you talk
to anyone else in class.
Why don't you ever
hang out with the others?
And it's like you don't want to
draw attention to yourself.
What makes you think that?
Easy to tell
if you're looking.
I never realized that you
paid so much attention to me.
I've found you, 009!
I know it sounds crazy, but...
I feel like I'm living
my high-school days forever.
And it feels like
someone's always watching me.
I sometimes felt that way when
I was taking my entrance exams.
This is different.
It's like...
How long have we known
each other, anyway?
You're the one who's always
putting up with my weird moods,
but if I can't even remember
something that important,
I must have lost my mind
a long time ago.
It's all right,
don't worry about it.
I bet you're just tired.
But I have to obey His Voice
and mete out justice.
Jet, I'm asking this
strictly off the record.
Have you heard of
something called "His Voice" ?
"His Voice" ? What's that?
There's no clear link
between the culprits
who carried out
the bombings so far.
But since coming here,
I've found a common keyword
that they've all
mentioned frequently.
And that's this "His Voice" ?
Yes. In the two UK bombings, and
in those in France and Hong Kong,
before blowing themselves up
those people told around that
they were obeying His Voice
and help humanity
start over from scratch.
Help humanity start over?
So...
Who is this "His" ?
No idea.
The leader of some
fundamentalist group.
Or a syndicate boss
backed by the Neocons.
Or the guru of some
fanatical cult.
But considering we haven't
found a single link
among the perpetrators of
this could be
a huge break in the case.
I'll relay my findings to the
investigators in each country.
In the meanwhile,
just keep it to yourself.
Cheers, mate. Let's have
a more leisurely drink next time.
GB, are you going
to Istanbul?
Can't just up and leave as I like,
you know.
I'll make arrangements with SIS
before I head over.
I see. And how's
you-know-who?
Asking will just make things worse,
like last time, don't you think?
What should we do?
Too many eyes on us here.
Lure him up to the roof,
and then b*at the stuffing
out of him.
A cruise m*ssile?
What's wrong, Francoise?
W-What was that?!
An expl*si*n?
What happened?
Is it a su1c1de bomber?
No, this looks like
something else.
-Hurry up and awaken 009's memories!
-I'm on it!
What the hell is happening?
The explosions... was it you?
There it is again!
What's going on?!
Francoise!
Activate accelerator!
What kind of crazy stunt
was that?!
Looks like your memory's back...
If you're here, that means
the world needs us again.
Correct. World's skyscrapers are
being blown up one after another.
No idea of
who's behind it.
Time has come to gather
at Dr. Gilmore's side again.
So, you're back?
Good to see you, Geronimo.
You, too.
Is this another su1c1de bombing?
I don't know. But it's a fact
that American missiles were used.
Looks like the building's
back-up generator has started up.
You know a lot
about that building.
Pyunma, it sounds like Jet doesn't
know anything about His Voice.
In which case, His Voice is
something far more dangerous
than the American conspiracy theory,
just as you suggested.
This means the president isn't
the only one jumping at shadows.
A Lazarus...
So it's the NSA?
When did we stop being
the good guys?
It's me.
A building's been blown up
in Tokyo?
He said that?
He really said, "His Voice" ?!
Chang Changku here.
Have infiltrated harbor.
Ivan, requesting
further instructions.
Roger.
I'm surprised you so readily
obeyed Dr. Gilmore's orders.
You and the Doctor have been
bogged down in lawsuits for years
after you registered
"Chang Changku"as a trademark
for the name of a global
restaurant chain.
This and that
are two different matters.
Perhaps the restaurant thing
went against the Doctor's wishes.
But even cyborgs get hungry
and need money.
And fighting for justice
costs a pretty penny.
Still, I donate a hefty sum to
the Gilmore Foundation every year.
So all is good!
So, how is this shipping company
connected to the bombings?
Doesn't look they're
carrying anything suspicious.
Have you heard about
the Tokyo bombing?
Sure. American cruise missiles
were used in the att*ck, yes?
Right. Because of that,
I reinvestigated the very
first att*ck in America.
Turns out that the wreckage
of the collapsed buildings
was sold illegally to China
via this SMO company.
Wreckage from the blast site
would be key evidence, yes?
Precisely.
So sending it abroad
through a civilian company
prior to any due examination
is odd to say the least.
Indeed.
If Ivan's reasoning is correct,
I should be finding
some cruise m*ssile
fragments around here, but...
Put your hands behind
your head, yes?
So this is how they work...
That is even worse than a m*ssile.
Truly, an act of men who do
not fear God, this is...
Once again, I've aged 3
whole years and you haven't .
You're the last person I expected
to become an archeologist, Pyunma.
I was looking for adventure.
I could meet you right away because
fortune and glory still elude me.
Plus...
I think my investigations in Africa
could prove relevant to this case.
We can always count on you.
I'm surprised that you were
the first to arrive.
The GSG gives you
that much leeway?
My body is entirely made of
one-off parts.
Same for the amm*nit*on
and missiles I use.
This makes me kind of a
Cold w*r relic in Germany.
Sometimes they dust me off
for instruction purposes,
but it's only a matter of time
before they send me to a museum.
Damn. At this rate, we'll reach
the lab by morning.
Wait, stop the car.
What is it?
Pyunma!
Did a young girl
just come through here?
Now I understand...
So this is what they meant
by His Voice...
What the hell is that?
Welcome back, Joe.
It's good to see you, 009.
You, too, 001.
Has it really been 27 years?
Just as I expected,
you haven't changed a bit.
I realized that
your unchanging body
could become a source of stress
if you tried to lead a normal life.
So I decided to reset your
mind every three years,
and seal away your
memories of the past.
This way I could have you act as
the leader of the Zero zero number cyborgs,
should the need ever arise.
However, I believe that my decision
has made you suffer in its own way.
I'm glad you're back.
It's OK. Repeating high school
again and again
was a bit suffocating
sometimes, though.
You remember that?
The memories from each reset
are still here for some reason.
It's because
we forced you back...
Well, it's all jumbled now,
but I'll work through it soon.
But how about the others?
They've severed ties
with the Foundation
and returned to their home
countries to find work.
But Heinrich and Pyunma
have just arrived in Istanbul,
and GB will join us as soon as
he gets clearance from SIS.
We've also reached 006,
who's on a mission right now.
What about Jet?
Don't tell me he's still...
National Security Agency now.
I doubt that he'll ever
team up with us again.
So his absence is not related
to the falling out you two had.
Now, let me explain the situation
and how the NSA is involved.
The skyscraper bombings that
began on January 16 in America
fueled conspiracy theories hinting
at a US government's implication.
Have you heard of Samuel Capital?
It's a private investment fund
based in America,
but they act for their shareholder,
Israel's Ministry of Defense.
They have but one objective:
to reap massive profits as part of
the m*llitary-industrial complex
by undermining world peace
and stability.
I suspect the US government
went along for the ride,
believing it would allow them
to regain global dominance.
This theory is only confirmed
by the actions of Congress
every time they turn a blind eye
to the illegal activities of
Samuel Capital's affiliates.
Among these ventures
is the development of cyborgs
using the corpses of US soldiers
and civilians k*lled in Iraq.
Cyborgs made from the dead?!
Chang's report will tell us more,
but I suspect that the first
su1c1de bombings in America
were carried out
by these zombie cyborgs.
By incorporating su1c1de bombings
into their business model ,
Samuel Capital plans to
perpetuate a new kind of w*r
and sell weapons and security
across the globe.
America and Samuel Capital's
underhanded scheme
is what's really behind
the skyscraper bombings.
And the group managing
this system of unmanned warfare
is the organization
I messed up in the US-Japan-Korea
m*llitary simulation 15 days ago,
and I haven't been able
to sleep since.
That day, I heard His Voice.
At first, I was speaking
with my commanding officer.
But as we were talking,
He spoke to me.
It was His Voice,
no doubt about it!
Who is this "He"
you keep talking about?
What?
The crazy bastard
bit his tongue off!
What the hell is "His Voice" ?
How much intel do you people
have on this incident?
Does this mean we'll be fighting
Samuel Capital, this new Axis of Evil?
It's a strong possibility.
But first we need to ascertain
how Samuel Capital
was able to carry out 34 bombings
around the globe,
and why the US Navy fired a m*ssile
into Japan, an allied country.
We'll begin with those
two avenues.
In a worst-case scenario,
we may have to fight against
the US m*llitary... and Jet.
About these b*mb att*cks,
I'm just wondering...
What if they're being carried
out of an order from His Voice?
Before all this mess started,
I heard His Voice while
I was living as a high-schooler
and I started planning to
blow up Roppongi Hills.
A su1c1de bomber, you?!
That wasn't your voice, Dr. Gilmore?
I was obeying that voice and join
a w*r to help humanity start over.
What are you saying?
Are you really Joe Shimamura?
In the initial stages of the plan,
the Defense Department
was sympathetic to
Samuel Capital's goals
and worked in secret to start
an unmanned w*r within America
by manufacturing
an unseen enemy.
But ever since
the bombings in America,
our plan has been growing
beyond its original scope.
Still, the government has
been giving their tacit approval
because they've
benefited from it.
However, now
this "His Voice" thing
is starting to affect
our own soldiers.
What the hell is His Voice?
Is it part of Samuel
Capital's scheme, too?
They're capable of anything
from wiretapping to zombie weapons.
Could as well have developed
some brainwashing technology.
But if they have a hidden agenda
even the NSA is unaware of...
Jet, we've got an emergency.
It's His Voice again.
Where did you hear
this voice?
I don't have any clear sense
of where or when.
It's just, I had this intense
feeling that obeying His Voice
was the right thing to do.
That's why I thought it was
coming from you, Doctor.
Are you saying that the bombers
are people who heard His Voice?
Yes. And when you look
at the Shanghai bombing,
you have to assume it was
planned long before 1/16.
So you'd already heard
His Voice before 1/16?
Yes. A few months before it.
And like me, other people
out there may have heard it.
I don't understand...
What is His Voice?
Francoise! Wasn't Joe's
surveillance your duty?
No, I... But watching every bit
of his personal life wasn't ...
Some sort of virus
may have infected
the brainwave transmissions
you shared.
Francoise, recheck all input data
for Joe's brain over the last 3 years.
We'll scan your own brain, too.
Refrain from any activity until then.
Geronimo!
Dr. Gilmore! According to a coded
transmission, the US Air Force
lost contact with a B-2 bomber
over the Indian Ocean 3 hours ago.
They spotted the B-2 flying
over the Arabian Sea afterwards.
An F-38 fighter appears
to be in pursuit of the B-2.
The pilot of the F-38
seems to be Jet Link.
No time to play, guys.
Sorry.
No doubt about it.
It's definitely Jet that flew away
from the combat airspace!
The B-2 is crossing the Gulf of Oman,
headed towards the Persian Gulf.
Is Iraq its destination?
What in the world is going on?
I think that the B-2's pilot
has also heard His Voice.
And his destination
is most likely Dubai.
Are you saying that the
US government isn't involved?
If Jet was sent out solo,
it means that
the US government is being
forced to take action.
Doctor! Send me there
via teleportation!
I'll go and find out
what's going on.
Out of the question!
You just said you were planning
a su1c1de bombing yourself!
I'm not sending you anywhere!
Francoise, put me through to
the US Department of Defense.
Doctor, I agree with Joe
that the US government
is being forced to take
drastic measures.
We have to do something, too!
Ivan, call Heinrich back!
We'll teleport him there.
We'll have Heinrich
destroy the B-2 if we have to...
Don't!
Heinrich won't be able
to do that.
Only two of us could overtake
a B-2 at that altitude:
me with my accelerator,
and Jet, who can fly.
Doctor, I want to find out
what His Voice is, too.
Doctor!
Very well, 009.
How did this happen?
Have faith in Joe.
He's still someone
we can believe in.
Joe, what are you doing here?!
I'm here to find out if
the pilot has heard His Voice.
His Voice?
How do you know about that?
Then you know about it, too?
How much has Gilmore figured out?
He didn't know anything
about His Voice.
He believes the US government
and the NSA are behind the bombings.
-Is this Joe's brainwave transmission?
[nod]
Then how did you know?
I myself heard His Voice and
was about to blow Roppongi up.
Always going against the grain...
I thought we were friends
until that day.
But when we were relieved of our
duties as Zero zero number cyborgs,
it was the Japanese wonder boy
they kept at the Foundation.
You, a pipsqueak
with non-aggressive defense,
were supposed to be our leader
in case of emergency?
Like hell!
It's America that has always guarded
the world's peace and freedom!
True. But was that always right
for the rest of the world?
For me, what's right...
... is to eliminate anyone
who gets in my way!
If you are unrelated to
His Voice, then I'll turn back.
But if not, I'll obey His Voice, and
help the pilot carry out his mission!
What? He's going to
help the pilot?
Joe...
Whose side are you on?
Jet!
Joe!
Is this...
Is this really what
He's trying to accomplish?
That B-2 was carrying
a nuclear m*ssile?
Joe...
from Joe's brainwave transmitter?
There's too much interference...
News of this tragedy will spread
around the world in no time.
Joe is dead.
What in the world was His Voice?
Unfortunately, we have lost our
only means of finding out.
Sorry we are late, yes?
Terrible things
have happened, yes?
Where's Pyunma?
He disappeared this afternoon.
But he had found some sort of
crucial evidence to this tragedy.
What is that?
The fossil... of an angel?
Yes, sir. That seems
to be the case.
It might be best to assume that
civilian reconnaissance satellites
picked him up
escaping from Dubai.
As well as landing here
at Andrews Air Force Base.
Yes, sir.
We'll need to work out
a suitable cover story ASAP.
Any ideas?
We leak the photos I sent you
to the media in all countries.
I see where you're going.
This contingency is exactly what
we spent a fortune planning for.
And what about His Voice?
The pilot and the soldiers who aided
him have been taken into custody.
We are questioning them
on the matter,
but we'll need to conduct
a detailed investigation.
Inform the commander.
The NSA was sympathetic
to your companies goals,
and have provided you with
direct and indirect support.
Now, I want some answers.
Several US m*llitary personnel were
involved in the latest bombing.
The common factor is they all
heard what they call "His Voice."
If His Voice turns out to be
something that you set up,
it will become a matter
of the utmost concern.
What is His Voice?!
The US government will have
to dodge the accusations
from the entire world
after this last bombing.
So, I need to know
what His Voice really is
and how it caused US troops
to take part in what happened.
The state of affairs thus far
had proved beneficial to us,
but the world is already on a course
where humanity will start over
even without our
direct intervention.
Humanity will start over?
What's wrong with that?
After all, we have been acting in
accordance with His Voice all along.
I can no longer reach GB.
So, did GB get taken out by Him
just like Pyunma was?
What connection would Pyunma's
disappearance have with GB's ?
Apparently, Pyunma discovered
this "angel fossil"
at Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania.
His notes say that
as the excavation proceeded
and that angel-looking
skeleton emerged,
more and more of the dig staff
claimed to have heard His Voice.
Pyunma asked his staffers
what His Voice was.
This was their answer:
"In the beginning was the Voice.
And the word was Him.
And all obeyed His word
in great awe.
But those who dwelt upon the earth,
through vanity, cunning and greed,
built a multitude of towers
whose tops reached unto heaven,
and hoarded the riches
of the world.
Scattered across the ravaged land,
man turned a deaf ear to His Voice.
But He gave unto man an opportunity
to atone for his misdeeds.
And flame and smoke and the roar
of a lion descended upon the earth,
and the many towers were
brought low into the dust."
Sounds like a quote from the Bible.
Except there's no passage
like that in the Bible.
Exactly.
And at first Pyunma simply thought
that this "His Voice" thing
the staffers declaimed so fervently
was just some kind of apocrypha.
However, when the t*rror1st
bombings hit on 1/16,
Pyunma immediately recalled
the passage about His Voice.
It was like those words
were describing the att*cks to
the skyscrapers around the world.
Studying humanity's origins
also means studying
the history of humanity's
thought processes.
When this occurred to him, Pyunma
hypothesized that the staffers
had some kind of religious experience
as they saw the angel fossil.
Hence, "His Voice."
His theory was that they may
have heard a message from God.
What does that mean, yes?
I'm not too sure myself, but back when
man was just another race of primates,
humans acquired the concept of death
from hunting animals for food.
Religion historian
Mircea Eliade
called this the "mystical solidarity"
between man and prey.
He believed this experience
caused humanity's ancestors
to evolve into h*m* sapiens.
Eventually, the concept of death
led to the fear of one's own death,
and in an attempt to free themselves
from that inescapable force,
they inadvertently invented "God."
This idea is also consistent
with Freud's theory
that religion came about as a result
of man's need to protect himself
from the overwhelming superiority
of the natural world.
So, basically...
just as humanity's ancestors
created "God" out of a fear of death,
the people who saw that fossil
created "His Voice" in their minds.
... according to Pyunma.
OK, so those martyrs believed
"His Voice" to be God's voice.
But how come that all who hear it
become a su1c1de bomber?
Well, Pyunma's reasoning
gets a bit sketchy at this point.
He says, "no entity has k*lled
as many men for kicks as God has."
I see.
But assuming that His Voice is
the result of a mystical experience,
we can't exclude no one has
exploited it for political ends.
True, religion has been abused
by governments countless times.
I suppose a certain infamous dictator
from my own country tops that list.
But among the many rumors
regarding the Fuhrer,
there's a popular belief that
he caused the Holocaust
because he possessed
the fossil of an angel.
Pyunma asked GB to see what
he could find out about that fossil.
The fact that GB is also missing
can't be mere coincidence.
Let's say your God was
originally created by the brain.
Would this God intervene
directly in human affairs
by inciting some to become su1c1de
bombers or making others vanish?
Good point.
But in the course of his quest
to find humanity's origins,
Pyunma began to speculate
that perhaps the human brain
might have been influenced by
some factor and become "God."
Our brain, which by some fluke
enables rational thought
in humans and no other animal...
Could it really be God?
"What if the brain is the X-factor
that we call 'God' out of convenience?
The 'something' that let humanity create
an environment favorable to our survival
by making us aware of
our own existence?" he asked.
What are you doing here?
Are you okay, Shimamura?
I haven't heard from you since
that night. I've been worried sick.
Something wrong?
A lot of people
d*ed here yesterday.
Oh, so that's why...
Are you all right?
I was the only one who survived.
And that's hard for you, isn't it?
It's all right.
God doesn't send us challenges
we aren't able to overcome.
Now I see... Tomoe was a
vision that you sent to me.
If a brain/ God exists inside
every single human being,
that might explain
Pyunma and GB's disappearance.
However...
If the entire human race
is being manipulated by God,
why is it that only a handful
have heard His Voice?
And why did Joe, who's never
seen the angel fossil,
suddenly decide to become
a su1c1de bomber?
Beats me...
Some people throughout history
claimed they could hear God's voice,
but they are rare exceptions.
It's the case of spiritual
mediums like shamans,
or ascetics and martyrs who could
only communicate with the gods
after extreme experiences.
And more recently, people who
have unique brain morphology,
such as those with what
is called Charisma Syndrome.
That might also apply to the
brains of car racers or astronauts
who are in "the zone" as the
result of intense training.
You could say a cyborg like Joe
with a tuned-up brain is like those.
Joe's brain was under
an extreme state of tension.
It wouldn't surprise me if some
factor caused a synaptic burst
and he interpreted his own
voice as "His Voice."
Even so...
"When this exists,
that comes to be.
With the arising of this,
that arises.
When this does not exist,
that does not come to be.
With the cessation of this,
that ceases."
Even sutras written
after Buddha's death
suggest that "God" exists as "Him"
within the hearts of all men.
That "humanity"and "Him"have existed
side by side since the distant past.
Have you turned up anything
on His Voice?
Yes, sir. We have to get
the word out as soon as possible.
About what?
Samuel Capital's Samuel Klein
is another follower of His Voice.
This means the whole US Congress
is under the control of His Voice!
I see. And?
And if we don't come up with
a contingency plan right away,
this situation will spiral
even further out of control!
The whole world must --
All right, son. I'll take over
on the His Voice situation.
But we have to deal with
the incident in Dubai first.
As I recall , your creator Dr. Gilmore
operates out of Istanbul.
You haven't been in contact
with him recently, have you?
What are you getting at?
These are the t*rrorists responsible
for the nuclear att*ck on Dubai.
You bastard!
Your former friends are probably
experiencing the same as we speak.
We appreciate your hard work.
We have one last mission for you.
Hostiles are closing in from
both ground level and rooftop.
Number, unknown.
These are yours. I'll intercept
the squads coming from the roof.
Hey! You OK?
Hey!
There it is.
What the hell...
... is that?
This is His Voice...
-What the hell is that?
-It's not my fault!
Somebody's hearing
His Voice again.
Don't move!
I don't have time for this.
I wish they would
give it a rest, yes?
How many of these
things are there?
Doctor! I'm getting a
brainwave transmission from Joe!
He's alive?
Yes. He's sending me
his current location.
Guess he's telling me
to teleport him here.
Now I'm getting a
transmission from 002!
He's asking to open
a channel for him.
Dr. Gilmore, minutes ago,
a USN nuclear submarine declared
they were going to help humanity
start over as told by His Voice,
and then went silent.
The Pentagon and White House are
both scrambling to locate it,
but at this rate,
they'll be too late.
What's the US government doing?
At first, it seemed like they were
planning to coverup the bombings
by blaming us Zero zero number cyborgs
for everything...
But this situation
is way beyond that now.
Doctor, you set him aside
so that he could be our leader
in a crisis like this,
didn't you?
Doctor!
Before being teleported, Joe said,
"I can't believe Jet is the enemy,"
then deliberately pointed a g*n
at you and left for Dubai.
All because he had faith
in his old teammate.
And when he said, "I'm going to
obey His Voice and help that pilot,"
it was to prove Jet's innocence!
Joe has always fought to uphold
the justice we all believe in.
I know in my heart that he'll
come back to save the world!
What do we do?
If they break through...
Joe!
I'm sorry I worried you.
You're alive...
When that m*ssile
detonated over Dubai,
I felt guilty that I didn't die
along with all those other people.
But now I know why I survived.
Thanks to you, Francoise.
I can hear His Voice in a
completely different way now.
Doctor, I'll stop that submarine,
no matter what.
I'll leave the planning to you!
Contact with the submarine
was lost 15 minutes ago.
Even if moving at top speed, it
should still be within this area, yes?
Without the submarine 's exact location,
I can't teleport you there.
But if Jet is right and they're
following standard launch procedure,
their nuclear missiles
will be launched in 15 minutes!
What about interceptor missiles?
The Aegis-equipped USS Sentinel
is just off the coast of Hawaii.
Let's go with that.
Weapons con, I'm opening m*ssile tubes.
You have permission to fire.
Stop!
Are you all right?
What's the status of
the nuclear missiles?
Looks like they
haven't been launched yet.
Deployment of nuclear missiles
requires multiple authorizations.
A mutiny might have
broken out aboard the ship.
Sorry, I'd really like
to trust you guys, but...
Heat bloom detected!
Six, five, four...
Contact with targets... Now!
Did we get them?
There's one left.
We missed it!
Francoise, can you handle the
m*ssile's trajectory calculations?
It looks like our only option
is to detonate it directly.
And you're going
to do it yourself?
You can't!
Even if you succeed, you won't be
able to return from that high up!
I know.
Then why?!
My life was spared
so that I could do this.
Ivan?
I want you to teleport Joe to the
coordinates I'm sending you.
Are you sure, Francoise? This next
teleportation may be my last.
Please.
It's still there!
Joe!
Something's closing in
on the m*ssile?
Jet! What are you doing here?!
I've been listening to you guys
over the brainwave.
Give me the charges!
Forget it! You can still
make it back by yourself!
Joe, even if this m*ssile is stopped,
there 's no guarantee His Voice will be.
Are you still going through with it?
Every individual hears His Voice
differently based on their state of mind.
By letting people see us struggling
against His Voice like this,
others might join us in our fight!
You think that's His real objective?
Probably. That's why this is
the only thing to do right now!
We did it! I made it, Jet!
JET!
I'll admit, human beings
are foolish creatures.
Whenever we gather
together in a group,
we're easily corrupted by a
collective unconscious we can't resist.
But on an individual basis,
those imperfections mean that
we're full of unexpected
surprises and discoveries.
We have unlimited potential.
That's what makes us
so amazing!
Are You going to crush the hopes
of all those people
who have answered Your call
and risked their lives
to save this world?!
In spite of all this,
are You going to destroy humanity?
The whole world?
Answer me!
God!
Good, you're awake.
Yeah... Where are we?
In my safe house.
Your safe house?
What am I doing here?
How did I get back down to Earth?
Good question... It's a mystery.
But the fact that you did is proof
that He answered your prayer.
Then the world is...
Wait, what about Jet?
Pyunma, you're here, too?
Yeah. I was here when I came to.
Hey! Where the heck are we?
If you two are here...
does that mean this is Heaven?
No... This is the world
that you boys saved.
It's good to have you back.
I'm proud of you.
What the heck is going on?
Is this His Voice, too?
Who knows? But maybe this is the world
that someone who heard His Voice
wished for really hard.
If that's true, what are we
supposed to do next?
The world's engulfed
in endless wars.
True, the situation
has changed dramatically.
But doesn't that mean that
now is the time for you
to fight for the justice
you believe in?
You know...
when I saw those
sh**ting stars, I thought...
that He wouldn't send us challenges
we aren't able to overcome.
And that maybe those
angel fossils are a monument
to the nameless people
who heard His Voice
and sacrificed themselves to do
what they thought was right.
