Chapter 136 – It’s Movie Time! 1

  Jayr POV - Earth, Teppelin - 1007 AFA-SW

  As soon as the credits of the first movie of Teoppa Gurren Lagann rolls, I hear the angry voice of Guame beside me as he yells, "What the...!? Why did I have such a pathetic death!!? It was almost like killing me was something that they remembered to do at the end. Hell! Even that pathetic ander had a better death than me!!"

  Meanwhile, Lenome is muttering, "Why do I now have the sudden impulse of pung that Simon kid in the face?" then he looks at me and says, "That certainly was iing... But the end seems a little rushed and leaves many things unanswered."

  I nod and expin, "That's true. But this is only the first of two movies... If you want I immediately start the one. But I think a break is needed." then looking at all the empty bowls on the floor, I add, "Moreover, I'd like to prepare another batch of pops, plus some other ies, like some drinks and some other kinds of snacks as the movie will be even more iing."

  Then I get up and say, "After all, until now we only saw the past. we will see the future or at least a possible version of it." quickly after, I open a portal that leads to my vil in my Soulbouory so that I prepare the aftermentioned snacks.

  Lenome POV - Earth, Teppelin - 1007 AFA-SW

  I look at the young man named Jayr as he disappears into a portal that leads somewhere unknown, then I throw a g Guame, who is once more smoking from his pipe, and ask, "So... What do you think?"

  Guame let out a puff of smoke and closes his eyes something that he always does when he is thinking about something important, then after a few seds of silence, he says, "I don't think he is lying. In fact, I don't think he ever told a single lie the whole time. And that is something scary in itself."

  Curious about what he meant by that, I let out an ied, "Ho...?" and Guame who knows me the best, instantly uand the unasked question and expins, "You when I first met him and tried to put some pressure on him to scout his iioold me: "If I truly desire to do something, nothing in this world stop me. Especially not a det warrior with barely any will to live left." That means that he is sure that no one in this pce truly be a threat to him."

  Hearing that, especially the part about the "det warrior", a smile unsciously forms on my face as I nod and say, "Well, for certain he isn't anything like those kids in the Dai-Gurren Brigade. First, he has fully awakened his Spiral Power, and his trol over it rivals mine, and that even if I had over 1000 years of experience, but still only admit that he is at my level if not higher from the few things he showed."

  Then Guame lets out another puff of smoke and adds, "Moreover, it is clear that despite his apparent idback attitude, he never let down his guard... He is truly a seasoned warrior, and not any warrior, but ohat went through terrible battles fighting overwhelmingly strong enemies. Each of his movements is natural and flows almost like water. It is clear that he trained from a very young age."

  After he said that, a calm silence falls between us, until I finally ask the most crucial question that tio swirl in my mind, "Do you really think that he has a solution for the Spiral Nemesis?"

  Guame finally opens his eyes and looks at me, then he replies, "It is very probable. Maybe the aself is in the movie he wants to show us. After all, there must be a reason behind his as than simply proving to us that he is telling us the truth."

  After he said this, the same portal as before appears and Jayr walks out with a bunch of things floating behind him.

  Jayr POV - Earth, Teppelin - 1007 AFA-SW

  I e out of the portal while using the telekinesis to carry a new set of bowls full of hot pop, some other snacks like chocotes and gummy snacks, like the perverted gummy bear that for some strange reason you always find in a promising position, like a certain niumber or some other mur one found in a certain Indian book, and of course some lights carbonated drinks.

  Once I pce all of them oable in front of the fy seats, I sit down and ask, "Are you ready to watch the seovie? I'm sure yoing to find it very iing." after receiving a calm nod from both Lenome and Guame, I once again use my Telekinesis to take out the first DVD from the projector and ge it to the sed.

  Soon the movie starts and once more it is Lenome's voice that gives the introdu, "Ignorance is a frightening thing. You people may believe that you are in the right... but it is I who keeps this world safe. I, Lenome, am the guardian of humanity." then after a close-up of his face with his Rinnegan-like eyes shining in the red light of the Anti-Spiral Power, the se jumps to the Battle of Teppelin that is going to happen in a month or so.

  Then there is a quick fast forward of Simon and Lenome's battle, as Lenome is beating Simon and Lagann's ass with his naked body as a red fire Spiral Power erupts from his scalp, before quickly moving back to the start of the battle where Simon is piloting Gurren Lagann and is about to piia to meet her father.

  And instantly Guame starts to pin, "Why the hell is this thing going bad forth so randomly!? It's fusing!" hearing that, I wry smile forms on my face as I expin, "Because this is only a quick summary of the battle that took pce, it isn't the main focus of this movie."

  And the ses of the battle quickly e oer a also shows a glimpse of Viral and Lealking, when Viral asked his question about the humans, and then Leh Lazengann makes its appearance.

  Seeing it once more, I 't help but ent, "I admit it the Lazengann is one of the coolest looking mecha!" making Lenome grin as he mutters a quiet, "Hum..."

  Then the ses of the fight between Lazengann and Gurren Lagann is shown as Lenome in the movie yells, "Long ago, there was once a man who fought as you do. Unaware that his as would bring about mankind's destru!", and I notice Lenome and Guame slowly nodding.

  After that, the se where Simon's Lagann Impad Lenome's huge giga drill csh against oher, and while the situation seems one of stall, soon Simon explodes with power and starts destroying Lazengann's giga drill.

  But the Lenome in the movie doesn't give up as out of Lazengann's cockpit and starts to beat Lagann up with his own body.

  Now it looks like Lenome's victory is guaranteed, as he looks down on Simon on the ground as he says, "I haven't had this much fun in a long time, boy. Now, bato the dirt with you!" and pick him up from his head.

  But right at that moment, Simon picks his Core Drill and without hesitation stabs Lenome in the chest with it, at the same time, Guame and the girls yell out, ""Nooo!!"" while Lenome tio watch with the same grin on his face as he munches on pops.

  In the movie, Simon then decres as the Core Drill shines in power, "My name is Simon. Simon the Digger, leader of the Dai-Gurren Brigade. If you decide to be a wall that's standing in my way, there's something that will open a hole in you every time! And that something is my drill!" thewists his Core Drill and releases a huge amount of trated Spiral Power that opens a huge hole in Lenome's chest.

  Theill standing but about to die Lenome says, "I see... Your Spiral Power outstripped my own."

  After that, he starts to ugh and then he says. "I will leave you with this warning." he looks at the moon shining in the night sky and tinues, "When the nd es to be overrun with ignorant apes that reach for the sky, the moon shall bee Hell's messenger aroy the world of the Spiral."

  I throw a g Lenome and say, "It's nice of you to warn them about Cathedral Terra. Your old fgship, a gigantic battleship that merge with a Gunmen into a p buster mecha."

  In response, Lenome drinks some homemade coca d says, "Hmpf. Of course that I would warn them about that. After all, if I die someone else has to take my pce as the guardian of mankind."

  After his st warning, the Lenome on the s smiles as himself fall from the tower as Nia tries to reach for him but she doesn't make it in time and only watch as he falls, then she says, "Farewell, Father. I will head towards tomorrow."

  Nobody says anything as the movie tinues and starts to show the ses of the Dai-Gurren Brigade celebrating their victory, and slowly the se that follows shows them w hard to rebuild a pce for the people to live using the zone where the Teppelin oood to build a city.

  And so as the years pass mankind started to thrive once more, and I also notie Beastmen among them.

  But as the city grows bigger with surrounding smaller cities ected to it, the bigger the frown on Lenome and Guame's faces gets.

  Thele of the movie finally appears, Teoppa Gurren Lagann the Movie: The Lights in the Sky are Stars.

  And Guame 't help but grumble, "Those foolish apes! The Anti-Spiral are sure to show once again. And this time there won't be any mer their part."

  Then Nia's voice is heard as she writes a letter intended for the dead Kamina, where she narrates the things that happened in those seven years after the Battle of Teppelin.

  But then as the movie tinues, a jet of homemade coca co be seen sprouting out of Lenome's mouth as he hears Simon's proposal to Nia, I even hear him mutter in a low tohat bastard..." but then he smiles brightly as he hears Nia reply, "No way!"

  Seeing this se, I 't help but think with clear fusion on my face, 'What the hell is going on here? I'm pretty sure he discarded her because she started to question him and her existence... So why the hell he still shows care? Did I miss something here? Could it be that just that little bit nited hope ges him so much that he already started to reevaluate his as? What the hell!? This is a faster ge of mind thahat went through Naruto's Talk no Jutsu!'

  Then I realize something I suddenly ask, "Lenome... Is the reason you discarded all your children because you know about the Anti-Spiral Factor hidden in the gehat trigger when the human popution reaches one million?"

  Hearing my question, a grim face appears on Lenome's face the out a sigh, nods, and says, "That's right. The Antispiral itself told me about it. It is a hiddehat is randomly impnted in the popution through a virus. Not only that but this virus seeks to impnt the geo carriers of strong Spiral Power. The fact that they are my child already grants them a strong attitude toward Spiral Power way above the average. And if they also show a strong will, it is basically guarahat they will be chosen as the carrier of the Anti-Spiral Factor. That's why as soon they showed their strong will, I was forced to dispose of them as painlessly as possible. I will do anything to ensure mankind's survival."

  And after he said this, we fall into silence as we tio watch the movie, whi the meantime tio move forward and now it shows the se of Nia accepting Simon's proposal while the frown on Lenome's face grows bigger.

  But just as they are about to kiss, a featureless bck face appears for an instant on the moon in the background, and Leands up and yells, "Antispiral!!" crushing the gss in his hand.

  And then on the s, the Anti-Spiral gene hidden inside Nia activates turning her into the messenger of the Antispiral, as she sends his message to all the people of the world, "Attention, humans of Earth. We Anti-Spiral have determihat humanity has achieved Spiral Power danger level two. We hereby activate the Humanity Annihition System."

  Thei-Spiral messenger tinues, "Usage of Spiral Power will result in the Spiral Nemesis, which will spell this universe's destru. Simon, the Core Drill you bear is the very symbol of that destru. Humanity's Spiral Power y dormant when they dwelled underground, but the Anti-Spiral sensor picked it up when you came to the surface. Humanity must be destroyed. Simon, yhting is what brought this upon you."

  After that, Simon who still doesn't uand what is going oions Nia, but as she is now the Anti-Spiral messenger, she ignores him and decres, "In three weeks' time, the moon will leave its orbit and impact the Earth. And that will be the end of it." then she adds how it ironic that the Anti-Spiral Factor was activated into a human that is Lenome's daughter and that now that she is an Anti-Spiral she would never be able to turn bato a human again and disappears.

  At the same time, Lenome yells, "That bastard! It isn't ironic or totally random. But a carefully calcuted probability! I studied that damn virus and know for a fact that it seeks genes with strong attu for Spiral Power to impnt the Anti-Spiral Factor."

  Meanwhile, on the s quickly after Nia went away, a Soldier Css Mugann appears, it is the basic Mugann unit, sent i o y waste to humanity, with a very peculiar shape that almost reminds me of some kind of virtual UFO, with primarily e with white details and lines of pink energy running across its frame.

  [colpse]Soon, Rossiu sends his forces to deal with the Soldier Css Mugann, a squadron of Grapearls, the successors of the Guhat were inteo be an upgraded version of Gurren Lagann, in fact, their shape is simir, but there is a huge differeween them and Gurren Lagann, they aren't powered by Spiral Power.

  [colpse]And indeed, Guame who was silently watg until now, let out an exasperated sigh and says, "What the hell are they intending to do with those toys?", as we all watch as their attacks are uo breakthrough the Mugann's energy shield and are totally uo withstand a single Soldier Css Mugann as it clearly wreaks them with its sers.

  And Lenome ents, "Quite foolish... the only thing that harm the Anti-Spiral forces is Spiral Power. They would have been more successful if they used the old Gunmen."

  Then Simon arrives with Gurren Lagann and easily destroys it, however, unlike normal Guhat simply explode or break down whe a fatal blow, these mecha turn into small explosives that devastate anything nearby, causing almost as much damage as the Mugann itself cause.

  This is a result of the mecha's unstable molecur structure, which also e to easily teleport itself through long distances.

  After that, the ses of the aftermath of the Anti-Spiral's first attack, how the people turned against Simon and put him in prison, how Rossiu took and, and the meetiween Simon and Viral in the prison.

  Then the se shows how Rossiu created a Bio-puter using Lenome's cell and started to question him about what he knew about the Anti-Spiral and possible solution, making the girls scream, "Noo! Spiral King's magnifit body is desecrated! How he dares!"

  Meanwhile, Leh a grim faents, "That Rossiu kid is somewhat followin' into my footstep, yes to a much less degree, but he too fell into despair, and is now doing anything he could to try to save what he ."

  Then he raises his hand and a bright red drill made of Anti-Spiral Power briefly appears on top of his palm as he says, "If he wasn't so pathetically weak, he could have developed the same power as me..."

  But something that he didn't notice as he is too focused on the movie is that there are tiny traces of green now present in his Anti-Spiral Power, which clearly shows the state of his mind, that his will to move forward and push through adversities is slowly reemerging.

  I also notice that Guame o me has his eyes and mouth opened wide in shock his gaze fixed on Lenome's y hand, as he also notices the slight ge in his old friend.

  Meanwhile, the movie tinues and Rossiu told his pn to leave Earth using the Arc-Gurren, but thei-Spiral start a tack, and this time, the Soldier Css Mugann appears in mass and starts their attack fog their forces on the Arc-Gurren, which is still able to set off and leave the earth.

  Then the se moves back to the prison, where Simon and Vial are calmly talking, and Simon is casually doing the same thing Lenome did just a few moments ago, he is geing a small bright green drill made of Spiral Power on top of his palm as he tells that he decided to leave everything to Rossiu.

  At the same time, both Guame and Le out an impressed sound at his casual dispy, and Lenome even ents, "It seems that his trol over Spiral Power improved a lot pared to the start of the movie."

  But soon they are interrupted by the appearance of Anti-Spiral messenger Nia, who shows them an image of the Arc-Gurren surrounded by tless Mugann, not only the Soldier Css but also Jokyu-Mugann, a Mugann that acts as a and unit, deploying and coordinating the attacks of Soldier Css Mugann, which is rger thaandard unit, with a bck body covered in green lines.

  [colpse]And also a pair of enormous Mugann, one blue that appears that has a more feminine shape, called Kyu-Mugann, and another purple with a more mase shape whose name is Kuu-Mugann.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]Then Nia tries to kill Simon but Viral uses his immortal body to shield him, but soon she sends him crashing against the bar of a nearby cell and is about to finish him, and in response, Simos up and says, "Stop it, Nia. I'm your target, remember? I should thank you, Nia. I was scared. Wheizeroyed Aniki's statue... When they mobbed the Parliament Tower, the rage in me was about to explode."

  At the same time, his hand is once again shining in the familiar green of the Spiral Power, "I felt a strange power well up inside me. Just like Lehat's why I kept that power locked away. If sacrifig me was the price for peace, I was okay with it. Or so I thought. But now you've taught me that I still have work to do, Nia. Go on, if you think you kill me, give it your best shot. But I won't die. In order to save humanity, I refuse to die." his will to fight is clearly ignited once more.

  Then Yoko appears shooting at the Anti-Spiral ball of energy that Nia ointing at Simon and making her retreat.

  After that, the pilots of the Dai-Gurren Brigade appear with their Gunmen ready to run to the rescue of the people in the Arc-Gurren as they are slowly getting overwhelmed, and because of that, the Spiral Power p the Arc-Gurren is quickly decreasing as the people is more and more worried and despair starts to take hold on them.

  But just as they are about to fall into despair, Gurren Lagann and the unmen arrive, "Don't give up, Rossiu! The instant you give up, it's all over! Don't you remember? This drill is the drill that will pierce the Heavens!"

  At the same time, I hear Guame and the drill girls cheer as Simon turns to his new co-pilot, Viral, and says, "Viral, let's do the old you-know-what!"

  Theart to t, with Simon starting, "The Spiral Path, in which the twin paths of man a wind and intersect!" followed by Viral, "Join with yesterday's eo smash fate and grab hold of tomorrow's path with our own hands!" then together, ""Destiny bining! Gurren Lagann! Just who the hell do you think I am!?""

  At the same time, Gurren Lagann releases a strong pulse of Spiral Power that destroys tless Mugenn and soon after the rest of the old-school Gunmen join the fight and y waste to everything in their way, amidst the cheer of the audience besides me, I even see Lenome discretely g his fist with a grin on his face.

  Then as the Arc-Gurren's Spiral Power start to rise, Leeron proposes to bine Gurren Lagann with it, but the Kyu and Kuu Mugenn separate into smaller pieces and reform around them, enveloping it and attag from all sides preventing them to bine.

  But it doesn't work for long as Simon being Simon, doesn't give up and drills through the obstacle to bih the Arc-Gurren, f the huge Arg-Gurren Lagann which easily overpowers aroys the bined Kyu-Kuu-Mugann by pung it into a hole of the space-time tinuum, and at the same time, I hear Guame mutters as he munches on the gummy bears, "I have to give it to the Dai-Gurren Brigade, they know how to put on a show!"

  (Image Here - Arc-Gurren Lagann)

  Spoiler

  [colpse]Meanwhile, Lenome ents with a grim face, "They sure are strong and brave... but will they be strong enough to face what is about to e?"

  And he is right to question that, as soon the moon transforms into a p-sized mecha, Cathedral Lazengann, that starts attag Earth, but Arc-Gurren Lagann moves to block its attacks.

  At the same time, puter-Lenome moves to hato Cathedral Lazengann, theells them how to gain trol of it pointing out the exact point where Simon should input his Spiral Power.

  But no one cares about that at the moment, as Lenome yells, "Goddamit! That hag sequence was dumb and ridiculous!! How they dare make me do something like that!"

  Then we all focus ba the movie as Simohe Giga Drill Break to rush into the Core of Cathedral Lazengann but ohere, they find Nia standing in their path with her body.

  Simon full of vi is about to ignore and crush her, but just as he is about to do it, he realizes that this is another of Antispiral's traps to make him fall into despair and stops.

  That is because Nie herself is still fighting the Antispiral influend was able to make Simon notice it, then Simon asks Nia to get away as he takes trol of Cathedral Lazengann, thes out and talks to Nia asking what is the probability of saving her and she replies that is infinitely close to zero, but in respoo that, Simon says that as long as it isn't zero for him the probability is 100% and that he is going to rescue her.

  At this point, Nia's ask breaks and she asks if he will rescue her, and Simon promises her that he will do it and after that, Nia is recalled to the Anti-Spiral World.

  But soon, puter-Leells everyohat he was able to pinpoint Nia's position using her wedding ring and that they ow reach her and the Anti-Spiral using Perceptual Teleportation.

  Reag this point I pause the movie, earning an angry side gnce from Lenome and the others, but pointing at the y bowls, I say with a smile, "Let me prepare some other snacks. We will hem as the part is going to be the most exg one!"
