"Breaking news, as you guys can see the mid part of the z-city was entirely collapsed due to the biggest earthquake in human history with richter's scale value of 17.

the entire world was effected by the earthquake. every single country was attacked by the earthquake but center of this massive and illogical natural disaster was caused by a unnatural destruction of a tectonic plate in the z-city resulting in a 17 minute earthquake which caused casualities of 500 billions and still counting.

some are speculating this to be a terrorist attack but some are strongly arguing this is a result of mining abuse of LAL industries limited. nobody knows the clear reason yet but this is a greatest tragedy for human yet for human history. "

february 18 . 5035 10:00 hours. (earth 17)

z-city (just before earthquake) (near the house of giorno)

in a sky that is filled with metal houses and land that is filled with metal houses and the air containing all the necessary nutrients and electricity needed to run houses and human, there is the technology of 5034 which only needs you to do your job to get everything for free.

everything here is run by an artificial intelligence named ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE which controls the nanobots which the entire city us made up of.

only the richest of the richest can afford this place. only way to have citizenship here is to be born here. the only way to leave this place is death.

there is no transport system here. one can only stay in his house his entire life and never come out of his house normally except funerals or marriages etc via teleportation portals that can be created from nanobots.

only good thing here is that once you are born here you can live a life of luxury that not even gods can live except the 5 strict rules from the AI which watches you 24/7.

in the dead centre of the city lies a mansion which is surrounded by small houses with a LAL branding on its name plate.

inside the house lives a rich 30 year old man who is on his death bed waiting to die from old age.upon closer inspection we can observe sadness in his eyes.

the mansion is empty except the old man.

after the world War 4 that happened a thousand years ago, the life expectancy of the humans decreased to 35 years average. the entire aging process of 20~100 years is sped up to 35 years to make you look very old.

the name of the old man lying on the bed is giorno.he has no last name cuz his parents disowned him at the age of 8.

Giorno slowly rose from his bed and sat on his bed and immediately a screen materialized in front of him. he started typing for an hour before sleeping again and repeating the process until he died with a smile on his face.

today is his 30th birthday. the birthday which is celebrated as a festival throughout the world but he felt it is time waste to celebrate it.

Instead he decided to publish the book ahead of it's schedule cuz he already finished it long ago and waited for the contract schedule to publish it.he didn't want to lose money cuz of a small violation like pre-releasing.

but now he felt his death approaching and he wanted to see what it feels like to break some rules.And he also didn't need money anyway so he had nothing to lose so he just uploaded it.

and as expected,immediately all his money vanished from his account. AI deduced his entire life earnings because of his violation of his contract but he didn't really care and just lied on his bed and waited for his death.

finally he felt happy and liberated but soon he felt empty. so he ordered his AI to play a song that gave him the most dopamine.

after some time the song stopped midway and warnings alarmed everywhere.

[CODE:PLANETARY EXTINCTION]

[ISSUING WARNINGS FOR ALL THE LEVEL 4 AND ABOVE CITIZENSHIP HOLDERS]

[IDENTITY CONFIRMED:

NAME:GIORNO DELIFÉRIN (LEVEL 8) CITIZEN.

JOB: ENTERTAINMENT OFFICER OF ALL LEVELS OF CITIZENS.(LVL MAX) ]

[DETAILS : A heavy damage has been occured to the tectonic plate due to illegal mining of some of the high influential officials....(minimum authority level rose to level 9.updating the report).....terrorists , highly dangerous terrorists. it is advices for the citizen to use the Teleportation portals pass issued in 5 minutes to get to a least affected places and increase your survival.]

[just before the impact all the electricity and nutrients in air of certain parts of earth will be absorbed back for strengthening of some of the other protocols.]

"an planetary extinction level earthquake caused by greed of a certain single high ranked officer.....I think I know who that guy is.... well whatever. what is the scale of the earthquake for you to classify it as a planetary extinction level anyway. "

[THE EARTHQUAKE IS ESTIMATED TO BE ON THE LEVEL RICHTER'S SCALE 17.THE HIGHEST LEVEL POSSIBLE WITH HIGHEST POSSIBILITY OF CAUSING A CHAIN REACTION WITH EVERY SINGLE TECTONIC PLATE NEARBY.]

"..."

[91 seconds until impact]

"from my guess AI doesn't have enough resources to teleport everyone and I am not high ranking enough for it to point out a safe place itself. well atleast it gave a 1000 options to choose from and a free portal pass."

[IT IS ESTIMATED THAT THE EFFECT OF THE EARTHQUAKE WILL REACH HERE IN 100 SECONDS. (82 seconds until imapact). PLEASE CHOOSE THE DESTINATION IN TIME]

"how much time does the earthquake gonna last anyway and what are it's after effects."

[half an hour. the most dangerous part is not the earthquake.earthquake itself is not dangerous outside the radius of the damage of the tectonic plate but so many things that follow up the earthquake. so total dangerous time is estimated to be 117 minutes from start to end. total estimated deaths are 400~600 billion lives]

"damn.i would have thought that it is really a terrorist attack had I not known better.send the entire possible data in accordance with my citizenship authority to my house AI and let it calculate what is the safest place for me in this whole earth as soon as possible."

[(10 seconds until impact)]

[NOT ENOUGH TIME TO CALCULATE THE DATA. PLEASE CHOOSE IMMEDIATELY. ]

soon the surroundings started shaking and nanobots started to fell apart but the old man just sat there silently.he was reminiscing about his past. time waits for no one. soon the electricity went out.

the dissatisfied yells of the neighbours rang every where on earth but soon the yelling turned to panic and panic turned chaos and chaos turned to death silence.

the oldman was also crushed to death by the nanobots whose electricity ran out.

'the natural disasters are supposed to be extinct after the humans found the most efficient way to use the natural resources.'

'the current earth has 3 moons but one of them is natural. other two are make from the astroids that once destroyed the earth. humans can make anything possible if they are given time'

'the efficiency of usage of natural resources became so good that human population went from 29 billion to 3 trillion within a century but finally human greed is the again what became the cause of the highest possible manmade natural disaster. '

giorno thoughts continued even after his death as he floated through the distruction caused by the earthquake as a transparent ghost.

[COMMENCING THE Z.I.V.E PROJECT]

as the mechanical voice appeared the "soul" of the giorno started getting dragged somewhere by the screen helplessly.

After being dragged for some time,his soul gained a little conciousness for a brief moment. He noticed a few thing like he went being dragged out of the earth,in which he saw a bunch of floating pieces of land .

'those locations are certainly not given on my options to teleport away so as I expected I was thrown away by the AI the moment this whole bs started.freaking shit world'

then the speed increased and he went immediately out of solar system and out the pink galaxy and out of the observable universe and out of the black matter.

And the last thing he observed during his last conscious moment is a void which acted like a portal to a restricted one-way nowhere.

while travelling through the "void" certain memories of him were erased and some memories were strengthened.

[YOU ARE ALIVE DESPITE BEING DEAD. CONFIRMED TO BE A SPECIAL CASE OF SOUL CATACLYSMIC TRAGEDY]

[ENCRYPTED ORDERS ARE BEING RECEIVED]

[ COMMENCING THE NEXT PART OF THE Z.I.V.E PROJECT.]
