Minecraft Social Experiment Summary

In the biggest social experiment in Minecraft history, I scattered 1,000 people across two massive islands to simulate a realistic civilization. The players were given no help or guidance. And just like in real life, if you die, you remain dead forever. [Music] Now, each player has the freedom to do whatever they want. farm for food, become a dictator, and build a society [Music] at least as best as they can. Because while one island is a rich green paradise, the other one, you're kidding me, is a barren wasteland. It's up to each player to work with what they've got. Will there be peace between the islands, or will there be war? What ended up happening is the single most amazing story arc I've ever seen. All I will say is pick a nation to root for and enjoy the video. I present to you the rich and poor 1,000 player civilization experiment. Don't forget if you want to participate in these videos, join my Discord server and of course subscribe to my channel. All right, we got a thousand. Good luck, everyone. It was the beginning of day one, and all 1,000 players began to explore their new homes. What is this place? [Music] Before the first day, I had made everyone choose randomly between island one and island two. And I didn't tell them that one of the islands, the first one, would be a barren wasteland. All right, you guys have a good time. No, not at all. Nothing here. Please tell me where the trees are, bro. I cannot find anything. It didn't take long for the people who chose island one to realize they had made a massive mistake. I hate this place. I hate this place. I hate this place. Players realized that building civilizations on island one would be particularly challenging. And not only because it was empty, but because some parts of it were completely uninhabitable, like the snow biome. Oh no, no, no, no. And right next door, a massive volcano that could erupt at any moment. Ooh, I'm not going down there. This volcano also happens to heat up all the water on the island. Okay, this killed a lot of people. Now, to begin building civilizations, the players needed to find a tree. Please tell me where the trees are, bro. Wood is an essential material, and without it, you really can't do anything. Now, luckily for island one, there was one tree on the island, and it was pretty big, too. But of course, it was completely surrounded by boiling water. You've got to be kidding me. Meanwhile, let's go over to island two. [Music] Hey guys. Hi. Life on island 2 was beautiful. The terrain was green, the trees were plentiful, and the water was normal temperature. Open for business. Solid water. This from the ocean. Are you trying to make me drink ocean water? No. The people on island 2 immediately realized they had chosen the island of safety and wealth. You are literally a piece of gold. Yeah, the only real danger on island 2 was the possibility of falling down from a tree as you're collecting wood. But some people found a way to even work around that. So, you're planning to build a bakery. Yes, I am. And you're forcing your employees to go up and get oak. Oh, no. No. She forcing you to work up here. She's forcing double carrots. Triple carrots. I want fair working condition. Also, because of the vast amounts of trees, people were very quickly able to craft tools that allowed them to mine underground. Hello, Saps. You doing okay? Yeah. I mean, this island's great. So many diamonds already. Look at this. Overall, the people of Island 2 were thrilled with their new home, thrilled with their wealth, and they were very optimistic about their future. [Music] By the end of the first day, players on island one had finally reached the big tree. You realize how high up you are. Oh yeah, I know. We're not scared. No, no, no. Island 1 was still pretty far from having fullyfledged civilizations, but there were communities starting to form. For example, this player named Remy the Rats made a small restaurant to feed those who were starving. Remy the Rat, what are you serving them here? It's very popular. Bread and What the freak? Why? Is this a bread line? I also got word that there was a small group of people who had chosen to settle in a weird location. People at the volcano. What type of people would choose to live on a volcano? Hey guys. Hello. What the Hey, how's it going? Welcome to the mafia. This was Lingolini and he had recruited about 20 people to join his Italian mafia. His goals were very simple. Make friends and get rich. Can we tell you a little secret? We found some Netherite. Oh, really? Okay. Don't tell anyone though. We're trying to keep it between us. We'll check back in with these guys later. But in the meantime, on island 2, there were actual huge civilizations starting to form. I don't care about power. I don't care about government. I just want to make a nice place for my people to live. This player named Call Me Cass was the leader of about 50 people in a nation she named the Cass Coalition. And a coalition it was of very different types of people including pirates, bankers, Canadian cartels, bakery owners, and their employees. I want fair working conditions. How much you even being paid to work up here? Paid. People are getting paid. Now, later in the day, Island 2 would face its first conflict. Hey, you guys can't be destroying the beach. Uh, who are you? A group of about 20 people were extracting sand from the shore right next to the Cass coalition. Cass was obviously not happy about this, but these people didn't care because they were from a much bigger nation called the Commonwealth. [Music] We're actually five nations combined into one, but we have strength in numbers. The Commonwealth was a massive civilization that was formed on day one when five distinct groups were close enough to each other that they just decided to come together and unify under one nation. As a result, the Commonwealth had a government with five leaders at the top and over 150 citizens. We're going to turn this mountain into our city currently. Ah, okay. Okay. The Commonwealth leaders were very ambitious and wanted to make the Commonwealth the most beautiful, the most respected, the most powerful nation on island 2, even if it came at the expense of others. Overall, by the end of the day, Island 2 was much further ahead than Island 1, as expected. But let's see what happens in the following days. As players logged back in the next day, nobody was expecting that the beginning of day two would end up having one of the most consequential moments of the entire event. Revy the Rats was running his restaurants when he received a visit from a player named Shoo. Night, I need food. I'm dying. Uh, yo, Shoot. Yeah, I do have food. your private worry. God, I'm too kind. I care about everyone else before myself. It's such a problem. Now, this player, Shood, was a rising leader on Island One. He was known for always giving away his own food. But some people started to suspect that Shood's supposed generosity was merely a method to gain popularity to further his political ambitions. That is until I'm sorry for being chill. [Music] assassin. [Music] Spoo had survived an assassination attempt which brought him exactly the attention he needed to cement himself as a legend on island one. People were drawn to him. And on day two, Spook used this leverage to establish an empire named Westhelm. These people have made me emperor. This right here is going to be our capital. We're also building a massive coliseum. You mean where people fight to the death? Exactly. Even though the people of West Helm were still struggling with food and resources, their motivation to succeed was unbelievably high. Earlier, somebody tried to take my life. Someone with this face. But now he's dead. For the first time, it seemed like the people of Island One had hope. done the ballot of emperor nearly killed by some doom. [Music] Island One was finally starting to develop civilizations, but not all of them were as motivated as West Helm. Right next door, for example, was a cult named Nevermore that literally just boxed themselves in and wanted nothing to do with the rest of the world. Quote the Raven Nevermore. And honestly, these guys weren't wrong to be pessimistic. See, some of the people who chose island 1 had secretly been hoping that when they finally make it underground, they would find droves of iron and diamonds. But instead, they only found a giant layer of lava that stemmed from the volcano and covered the entire island. This lava layer ended up killing a lot of people. That said, a lot of people weren't necessarily angry at the poor conditions themselves, but more so about the inequality between island one and island 2. See, even though the two islands had a border separating them, preventing anyone from crossing for now, rumors were spreading about the wealth and the amazing environments of island 2. Because of this, some people on island one were starting to develop some feelings about the other island. Island 2 might be the better island, but we're the better people. Oh, in fact, artists on Island One were already making propaganda posters, some of which were rather concerning, including a few creations by our mafia leader, Lingalini. Speaking of Lingalini, there was some drama on the volcano on day two. I just survived an assassination attempt. What? Mama mia, help me. I'm getting chased. Lego me out of nowhere and I had to run down the mountain. It was becoming a pretty common occurrence on Island One for people to try to rob or murder as a means to get food or resources. But Lingalini was not going to let that slide. Well, what are you going to do about that then? I put a heat out on him. Everybody at the mafia knows that the Lego is an enemy of the mafia. But then during our interview Oh, wait. Who's coming out over here? There's some people coming out. Oh, those are people from Infern. They're our allies. Oh, really? Lingolini had decided to share his volcano territory with a larger group called Infernace, whose main goal was to preserve and protect the sacred land of the volcano. I spoke with the leader, a player named Cynica, who described herself as the queen of Infernace. We are a nation of the flame. We have to treat the volcano with the respect it deserves, and we hope we can work with Lingalini to do just that. Cynica and Lingolini agreed to protect each other in case of an invasion and use the volcano's height and flowing lava to their advantage. If anybody tries to attack us, we'll kick them out like a Koopa shell. Now, speaking of invasions, on day two, the cast coalition was approached by an army of boats. Oh crap, guys. I think we're under attack. It looked like for some reason the Commonwealth was coming to attack. No, no, we can't fight this. We got to run. Get everyone out. Get everyone out. But after a few moments of panic, it turned out to be just a group of immigrants who had gotten lost. We are not here to invade. I swear. We're not here to invade you. We promise. Why are y'all here? You must. But I didn't do anything. You brought them all. You didn't do anything. The leader of the migrants, a player named Three Below Zero, profusely apologized for the scare. And then the migrants took off. What's going on, Cass? I know they didn't mean to do that. I'm telling my people not to worry. All right, glad to hear. Now, on day two, players had finally realized that Island 2 was not technically an island at all, but an archipelago or chain of islands. The northern island was an optimal place to settle with open fields, trees, and wildlife. So naturally it had the biggest civilizations including the Commonwealth, the cast coalition and a huge kingdom namedricolor ruled by a monarch named Joeil. The red stands for the underground, the green for plains and the blue for the coast. The center island meanwhile had pink cherry blossom trees and was the home of a small nation called Barbie land. What is this? Life and plastic. Oh god, it's fantastic. And lastly, the southern island was big, but also extremely dense, flooded with jungles and swamps. As a result, nobody really wanted to stay there. Although, I did find one person. Saps, what is this? Can't you tell? This is my vacation home. How is this a vacation home? I don't see any lawn chairs or furniture. There's no room. Hold your horses there, cowboy. It's not done yet. Saps was one of the few players who chose not to join any civilizations because he didn't want to get dragged into politics and drama. Still, he made lots of friends across islands, too. His best friend, Flux, actually being the second in command of the migrant group. Speaking of, three below zero and the migrants had finally reached their destination all the way up north. Now, other than accidentally invading the cast coalition, these guys seemed pretty insignificant. But little did people know, this new civilization was about to change the entire world. [Music] We are blessed to live where we live and we intend to use it for good. We are enlightened. We are the light. We are Luminara. The migrants had decided to call their civilization Luminara. They saw themselves as the light of island 2. The innovators, the inventors. See, the reason 3 below 0 had chosen this specific location to settle, well, it wasn't by accident. After the first day, 3 below 0 had used content and propaganda released by the people of Island 1 to estimate the location of the other island. He then used a coordinate system to calculate the northernmost point of island 2. His goal was to settle as closely as possible to the other island so that when the day comes, when the borders drop, Luminara can build a massive bridge connecting the two islands, giving free passage as a sign of good faith to perhaps bring about world peace. But it wouldn't be that simple. The second in command of Luminara, Flux, as well as a few concerned citizens, did not want that bridge to be built. They had seen the Island One propaganda. They knew that people on island 1 were angry. Their fear was that Island One would just use that bridge as an opportunity to invade Luminara and perhaps invade the rest of Island 2, leading to a world war. That bridge is a bad idea. Moving up north was a bad idea. Island One is going to invade us. and Luminara is going to be their first target. What about the goal of world peace? I respect our leader's goal, but he's dead wrong. We shouldn't be trying to befriend our enemies. The way we're going to achieve world peace is by uniting Island 2 against Island One. What if Three Below Zero says no? What if they finish the bridge? Well, then at least they'll know I tried to warn them when Island One comes and kills us all. [Music] As day 2 came to an end, tensions were rising both within nations and between islands, leaving people worried about what's going to happen next. [Music] Back at Island One, I was watching a small group of pirates who called themselves Alcarasina. My friend, we're the baddest pirates around. Now, if you look closely, there was a person of interest hanging around with the pirates. Lego likes to take me out of nowhere and I had to run down the mountain. Well, what are you going to do about that then? I put a hit out on him. So, to be clear, Lego had a bounty on his head and he was hanging around pirates. You can probably guess how this ends. Yo, Lego's here. So, is this this is everything you guys got, huh? Not much. [Music] They're boiling. Oh no. Oh my gosh. The Alcarasina pirates had killed Legolikes. But there was a small problem. Did you hear about the news? Yeah, I saw it, but uh we don't know who claimed the bounty. It didn't say it in the chat. Because Leggo Likes had technically died to boiling water instead of a player. Lingolini didn't know who actually killed him. But fortunately for the pirates, when a player dies, the dead player drops their own head, which the pirates believed would be the proof they needed to collect their bounty later today. So, you're expecting a payment later? What we expect? All right. Well, I'll go. You guys let me talk. By day three, players had basically mapped out all of island 1 and were finally starting to adapt to the environment. Day one was horrific. We literally had bread lines. Day two, we're building a coliseum, a citadel. I am literally immortal. Um, hopefully that isn't foreshadowing. Emperor's Food was still the most powerful man on island 1. And on day three, he was invited to a big international meeting hosted by a charity group called the Blue Cross. Uh, we invited you here mainly to discuss plans in case the volcano erupts. What are your individual plans? A large bunker underground. Just not using flammable materials. We don't have any real plan. You know what? You don't have plans. If that volcano erupts, you deserve to die. Oh, Emperor Spoon had come in with good intentions, but it was there that he learned that he hates meetings. I'm going to go there. When Emperor Spoon left, the other leaders were unsettled. Was this guy really the figurehead of Island One? Okay, we need a better representative then. Basically, right on Q. Diplomats, follow me. Sorry guys. Sorry I'm late. I'm Benji. This is Benji. And he's the leader of Island 1's second biggest civilization called Allesium. See, on day two, Benji had discovered that toward the outer edges of the island, away from the volcano, the water isn't boiling hot anymore. So, he founded Allesium, which literally translates to a place of ideal happiness. And he made the nation to give peaceloving people a chance to relax and get away from all the troubles of island one. This is without reason. Look at these amazing guys swimming in the water. We were hoping that Lord ish could summon a single mushroom cat. All right. If anyone drops a puffer fish in the next 60 seconds, I'll do it. The puffer fish. There it is. All right. Yeah. We could kill it for leather. Now, back at the Blue Cross, Benji and the other leaders discussed the possibility of creating a full island one alliance. All the leaders at the meeting, including West Holm's representatives, believed that given the harsh conditions of Island One, an islandwide alliance could be a gamecher. But first, before we make this official, we have to convince everyone else to join. See, there were a few civilizations not present at the meeting. And to complete the full island 1 Alliance, the Blue Cross would have to go out and get them all on board. First was the Alcarasina pirates, who coincidentally happened to pass by the meeting as it was happening. Hey guys. Hello. They were on their way to collect their bounty from the second nation not yet in the alliance, the Lingalini Mafia. Oh yes, they're waiting. Hello. I'm looking for Mario. Hello. It's me. Ooh, mama. It looks like a small brain. It sure looks like a Lego. Meanwhile, the Nevermore cults would probably be a little bit more difficult to convince, but the Blue Cross said they try anyway. Now, as for the fourth and final nation, well, it was a bit of a mysterious group. Their civilization was down south, and they were very isolated and secretive. They were also rumored to have an extremely strict government, but also a large amount of very skilled fighters. As a result, people were kind of scared to approach them, but they knew they had to eventually to complete the Blue Cross Alliance. They knew that if this alliance works out, it wouldn't matter that they all lived on the poor island. All of a sudden, out of nowhere, the most powerful force in the world would become Island One. Be still and run the rain. I don't know forever. At first, Island One was supposed to lose, but now they were on the verge of turning their lives around completely. Turn your life. I know you need me. Turn your life around completely. [Music] Be still and run the race. [Music] As you can see, there was a bit of commotion at the Commonwealth. They had just exploded their own land because of a miscommunication. What happened was one of the five leaders, Coraline, got the idea that the Commonwealth was planning to move east. So, she started telling everyone to move. Thus, believing that they wouldn't need their old land anymore, one of the citizens just decided to blow it up. I thought we were moving. What? We're not moving? I'm surrounded by idiots. Overall, the Commonwealth was having trouble getting anything done because the five leaders were constantly fighting over power. See, there were five leaders, each with one vote. But because they were originally five separate nations, each with a differing amount of citizens. Should the smallest factions vote have the same weights as the biggest factions vote? It is ridiculous that Armen's vote is worth the same as mine. I mean, I lead about 50 people and he is barely five. Because of all the fighting and disarray, Commonwealth citizens started moving to other nations like the Cass Coalition. Cass's style of governing, letting people do whatever they want, was making her very popular with her people. I've been uh with Cass since pretty much the beginning, and she's established a uh democracy, a true one. Really focused on like letting everybody do their thing. But at the same time, the lack of any regulations had some unintended consequences, like players making strange and ugly buildings. So to solve this, Cass hired a building inspector. I have placed a lot of foundation for a glorious city basically made out of stone. That way, no one can burn us down. However, the building inspector did get a little power hungry. What's going on here? He said he's going to demolish my house because it's not up to because it's not up to code. So then citizens took matters into their own hands. What? No. Anyway, on day three, the biggest nations on island 2 were still the Commonwealth, the cast coalition, andor was a medieval civilization separated into three regions. One of them being an underground city. Oh my gosh, this is big. Yeah, people didn't really know that much about Joeofil andricolor because they tended to be more private. Joeofil was more interested in building upricolor rather than doing outside diplomacy. But people would still come to Joeofield with all the political news of Island Zoo. I am so tired of the politics already. I've got some news. People are concerned with Apirion trying to colonize them. Oh my god. Now, this particular rumor about a group named Apirion colonizing people happened to be false. A Peryion was just a small town led by a player named Alkaline, and it was actually the only nation other than Luminara that directly bordered the ocean next to Island One. That said, the rumor that Island One was uniting was true, which got some people worried, especially the two border states. So, Chofil invited over all the major leaders and diplomats of Islandu for an emergency meeting. The only leader who declined was three below zero because he was busy building the Luminara Bridge. So he sent in his place his second in command, Flux. Flux, what's your plan here? I don't care what Three Below Zero says. We need to make sure everyone unites against Island One. Uh, good luck, sir. And because this beating was the most important event yet on Island 2, Chofville invited a neutral mediator, someone who could lead the meeting in a fair manner and wasn't a part of any nation. Sax, where are you going? Apparently, they're making me lead the meeting with all the island two leaders. You sound very excited about it. Oh, no. I'm not I'm not excited. I'm terrified. I'm accidentally going to cause a war. [Music] Welcome, welcome. I think everyone's here. Welcome, welcome. Well, we at the Great and Mighty Commonwealth are looking forward to a productive conversation. Thanks. three. So, as the president of the Perion, I'm actually really worried about our town, which is why I'm proposing we all join a defense pact. If one of us gets attacked, all of us are under attack. I can agree. I like that. That's good. That's a good start. But if Island One attacks, say, Luminara, well, by the time you can even arrive to defend us, everyone at Luminara will already be dead. Which is why I think we need to focus our efforts on preventing an attack in the first place. An attack is inevitable. We I'm just saying. Hold on, Flugs. Let your view finish. Island One is starving. They're not going to attack us. They have bigger problems. And imagine for a second how quickly we could change their hearts and minds if instead of treating them as an enemy, we send them aid. [Music] I think Joe feels right. We do the defense pact, but we also send aid to island one. Basically, we're ready for an attack, but we try our best to prevent it. I'm on board with that. I can agree to that. The Commonwealth agree. Guys, no. This is ridiculous. Island One is literally making propaganda saying death to Island 2. They're jealous that we live in a paradise and they're going to invade us no matter what. And you want to send aid to them? Guess what? They're going to take whatever you send them, food, armor, weapons, and they're going to use all of that against us. Huh. He might have a point. Hold on. Is one isn't evil. They're not savages. They just need help. You cannot be this naive. Well, there's a guy under the there's a guy under the table. Everyone is super on edge. You're worried about traps. Guys, guys, island one is united. They have hundreds of people all aligned in the same goal. To kill us and take our resources. If they decide to attack any single one of our nations, it'll be easy. All they'll need to do is walk ahead. Which is why we need to either merge all of our nations right now. We all choose a spot and combine into one civilization. Either that or we attack island one first. Are you crazy? You plan to kill. What's crazy, Joe, is you leading all of us to our death. You have to listen. We can't do that. If we don't do this, it's the end of island 2. Everyone, everyone, we can't fight. Let's just vote. All in favor of Flux's plan to treat Island One as an enemy, say, "I." I. All in favor of sending aid to island one. I I mean at West Helm, I ran into something interesting. Our next song is called Island One. Oh my god. So you remember this guy? [Music] Well, he had joined a bench that produced actual songs and then performed them all across island one wasteland island. Let's go and no resources to speak of except one tree. Let's go. Everyone loved the Island One band, including Emperor Shmoot, who found that the music bolstered the morale of his citizens. He believed that a happy citizen is a productive citizen. West Helm took us in and gave us a little home. Even though Emperor Food was a chaotic figure, West Helm itself was the opposite. It had an army, a storage system, and a hierarchy from emperor all the way down to citizen or pleian. And of course, there was the coliseum, which when finished will play a major role in West Helm's justice system. That said, Emperor Food was not happy when he heard that yesterday Benji and the other leaders had been talking poorly about him. Okay, we need a best representative. Our final goal is to put Benji Button in here. No, that is a joke. That is a joke. You don't want Benji to die, do you? Well, I mean, Benji and the other leaders were concerned that Emperor Shood is unstable and may one day try to take over the entire island. And their concerns only grew when Shpoud was caught listening to Napoleon on Spotify. But they also knew that if Island 2 were to ever attack, they needed Shpoud on their side. So, they didn't know what to do. Well, here we are. [Music] I just want to say thank you for your support. You're welcome. I'm the best. Glory to West Town. Meanwhile, Cynica, the queen of Infernace, had decided to begin building a massive castle for her people. a beautiful home base that would hover directly over the volcano. [Music] Yesterday at the Island One meeting, a lot of leaders expressed worries about rumors that the volcano may erupt, and they talked about how they would each take different precautions. Everyone believed that the volcano was dangerous except for Cinea, who had decided to take the opposite approach. It's all just paranoia. If you really value the volcano, we need to have faith it won't erupt. The main goal of Infernace as a civilization was to preserve the sacred land of the volcano. So, what better way to show faith and demonstrate loyalty than to make your home right above it. Lingalini, meanwhile, decided to make his home underground within the volcano. Under the ground like a goombas. Lingalini's main goal was to get rich, and having direct access to iron and gold was one reason for him and the mafia to live there. But it wasn't the main reason. Remember this interaction from day one? Well, can we tell you a little secret? We found some netherite. Oh, really? Scattered throughout the volcano were pieces of netherite, the rarest and most powerful mineral in all of Minecraft. Not even island 2 had netherite. It was the single secret advantage that Island One had. And the only ones who knew about it were the Lingolini Mafia and Infernace. Now, even though Infernace didn't exactly like how Lingalini was desecrating what they consider to be sacred land, they made a deal with him. The mafia can keep mining so long as they provide Infernace with some of the minerals they find. But Lingolini was unsatisfied. though they want to use us. They want cheap labor. I'm not giving them anything. Lingalini didn't like how Infernice was basically forcing the mafia to mine for them with nothing in return. So, he secretly instructed everyone in the mafia not to give Infernice anything. Lingalini's hope was that Infernace never asks for those minerals and forgets about the deal entirely. Otherwise, he would be in a lot of trouble. That said, despite this conflict, the rest of the Island One unification effort was going very well. Earlier today, Lingolini had decided to join the Blue Cross Alliance. [Music] Thank you all so much for having me. The Alcarasina pirates were also eager to join and surprisingly so was Nevermore. There was only one hold out. This mysterious civilization was called the Covenant and it was ruled by a dictator named Turntap. How are you elected exactly? By vote of the people or or the vote of yourself? Elected. Turjap wasn't sure about joining the Island One Alliance because the people of the Covenant were generally skeptical of outsiders. They only took pride in their own nation, especially in their army, which was composed of really good PvPers who weren't above using torture to get their way. Are they drowning this guy? He's going to die. Now, I felt a little bad for this player, so I threatened the Covenants. Covenant uses water torture. I'm reporting this to Sidefall News. No, no, no. Go to Sidefall. So, I went to the local news reporter. Sidefall, I have a story for you. I just caught the Covenant waterboarding one of their own people. Oh, well, I'm paid off by them, so I don't really care. What? It's Dude, it's free money. You know what you It's called a business for a reason. It's not for profit. Okay. Sidefall ran a news business with questionable ethics. He was also known for making up fake stories, writing things like the lava is rising just to sell more papers. That said, earlier today, he had made a legitimate discovery that could devastate the entire island. Island 1 had a lot of known dangers, from the lava layer to the boiling water to the powdered snow. But there was one last danger that nobody knew about until now. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Meanwhile, the people of Island 2 had spent the day building their civilizations and having a good time. Yesterday, their leaders had voted that whenever the border drops, Island 2 would send aid to Island One, hoping this gesture would lead to peace. But not everyone agreed with this approach. The end of island 2. When Flux returned home to Luminara, Three Below Zero was furious at Flux for causing chaos at the meeting and for going against Luminara's values. Three Below Zero, as the leader of Luminara, was actually heavily in favor of sending aid to Island One. The whole point of the Luminara bridge was to make peace with Island One, not to start a war. As a result, Three Below Zero demoted Flux from his position as second in command. I spoke with Legacy, a citizen of Luminara. Yeah, Flux has been gone all day. People here don't really like him anymore. Flux and his crew had spent the day building a secret bunker under the ocean, a place for them to hide if Island One attacks. And then Flux spent the rest of the day helping his best friend Saps finished building his home. Despite all the chaos, Sap still reached out to me after I was demoted. Mr. Mediator, what a good friend. Flux over here can be a little unpredictable, but he's my friend, and I know he genuinely wants the best for us. Even though Flux was much more ambitious than Zaps, these two had become very good friends. So many diamonds already. Yeah, look at this. Yeah, I love him. But just as day four was about to come to a peaceful end, something happened that would change the course of Island 2 forever. [Music] Joeofil, the leader of one of Ireland's 2's largest civilizations, was walking across Tririccolor with her second in command, Saraphim. [Music] [Music] What are you doing? What? No way. The second in command of Tricolor had just killed their own leader and immediately all of Island 2 went on lockdown. What we want them everyone was confused about what caused this to happen. They killed Jooffield. Why? After Sarapin fled, Triricolor was in complete disarray. That's our leader from Back at Saps's place. Flux told Saps it might be a good idea for him to call an emergency meeting with all the leaders. So, for the sake of the island, Saps agreed to host a meeting tomorrow. But for now, he and many others headed to Tricolor to help them restore order. [Music] Now, Island 2 wasn't the only place that would face tragedy. Oh, what? The leader of the Alcarasina pirates, Noble Bucket, died very suddenly. All right, they sent me the footage of what happened. Oh, no. He doesn't know the lava layers there. [Music] I think I'm dead. I think I'm dead. Oh my god. With world leaders dying left and right, the media had plenty to report on. The most trusted news company was from Allesium called Daybreak Media. We're number one because we actually report the truth. Unlike that bozo sidefall. And later into day five, the news would get even crazier. For purposes of unity, the Covenant had finally decided to join the Blue Cross Alliance, thus successfully uniting the entirety of Island One. But right away, the strength of this alliance would be tested. [Music] Earlier, a citizen of Infernace had accidentally told someone outside of Infernace that there was Netherite in the volcano. And this news spread all across the island. This was a disaster for Infernus and the Linguini mafia, who had been trying to keep the existence of Netherites to themselves. [Music] Immediately after hearing about the Netherite, the Covenant sent a mining expedition into the volcano without telling Infernace. And lo and behold, they confirmed there was Netherite. [Music] Because the Covenant had a scary reputation and a ruthless army, Queen Cynica of Infernus felt it was in her best interest to allow the Covenants to mine. But when other nations like West Helm started asking if they too could mine in the volcano, Cynica said no. People are saying we're being selfish. They're the ones being selfish, trying to take our resources. Listen, Island 2 is rich. We are not. Now, with Netherite, we actually have a chance of evening the playing field. But the volcano people are hogging it. Before any fighting could break out, the Blue Cross quickly reached out to all the leaders and told them to put this issue on hold. We're inviting everyone here tomorrow so we can all talk this through peacefully. We're Island One. We cannot afford to have war over some mineral. Meanwhile, Island 2 was still processing the death of Joeofield. Even though I was just a farmer, you know, you still made me feel important. Saps would invite all the leaders for a meeting later so they could coordinate a hunt for Saraphim and discuss their plans for when the border inevitably drops. Now, after Joeofil's death, had lost a lot of its power, which left the island with really one dominant nation, the Commonwealth. But remember from day three how the five Commonwealth leaders were in constant fights with each other. It's just ridiculous that Alvin's vote is worth the same as mine. Well, this all came to a head on day five when one of the leaders was caught plotting to take control of the entire Commonwealth. So, another Commonwealth leader then paid an assassin to well Oh. Oh my god. Oh my god. Wolf from what? We just witnessed murder. After this, people from the Commonwealth lost even more faith in their governments. This Commonwealth citizen went to the Cass Coalition to complain to Cass directly. I got information that there might be Netherite on the other island. My leadership said, quote, "Netherite is useless. Netherite is of course not useless." I think that's a foolish statement. As the Commonwealth erupted, the cast coalition thrived. [Music] But they did have their own problems. Is this is this your employee? Yes. Yes, he is. That implies I get paid. Is he not getting paid? Skip out on work. Do you hear this woman? Earlier, what daddy had ditched work to attend a party in Barbie land? So, as punishment, his employers forced him to risk his life and chop down one of the tallest trees in the cast coalition. He's asking for yelling. You have to yell louder. I can't hear you. You're so far up. You have to get closer to the ground. What the? Now, because of this recent tragedy, Cass decided to stay home from SAPS's meeting. That said, every other major leader was now on their way. [Music] As the leaders and representatives arrived, there was one person who would be notably absent, banned from attending the meeting. Before the meeting started, Flux called me to his underground bunker because he had something important to tell me. Flux, what are you going to do? Well, first, let me just explain. I'm not allowed to attend this meeting because the leaders of this island are utterly incompetent. They can see that Island One is gearing up to invade us. And their response is, "Let's give Island one more gear. It's completely brainless, and it's going to result in all of our people dying." So, you got a plan? I had a plan, but nobody listened. They all voted against it. Look, we can still save this island, but the current leadership has to go. What do you mean has to go? Has to go. Removed and I'm done waiting. It's going to happen today. [Music] Leaders. Leaders. Welcome. Thank you. Thank you all for coming. We have a lot of very important stuff to talk about. You know, during the first meeting, there was one person there who actually understood what I was saying. Saraphim reached out to me, asked me if they could help in any way. I told Saraphim to kill Joe. What? And today we will finish the job. Wait, so the Sarapim gets there? What actually happens next? Something I didn't want to do, but something that needs to be done. I'm going to save this island by any means necessary. I would like to bring you to the table. If you agree with both Kaos and Sarah from Please say I. Are you sure this is going to work? I don't know. But we have no other choice. All right. So, I have something to say. Is there is there a possibility? Any possibility that the assassination of Wolver and the assassination of Joe by Sarapim is any way connected? Is there a conspiracy going on right now? Do we think that's a thing? Are are leaders safe? I have a reason to believe that leaders are not safe. Flux, do you feel any guilt doing all this? Well, part of me feels bad for SAPS. Also don't think the leaders are safe. What do you mean you feel bad for SAPS? He has no idea what's about to happen to him. But if you had to betray one person to save a thousand, would you? What just happened? What happened? I didn't do that. I didn't do that. Oh my god. Why is there a trash? Is this all Where did he go? Sock him down. Kill him. Kill Sack. It was a new day and island 2 was in shock. Oh my god. What happened? On day four when Saps was in tririccolor helping the people after the death of Joe, Flux and his crew had built a trap in his roof. And Saps did not know they had done this. He had been framed by his friend Flux, used as a scapegoat for Flux's plan. What? Oh my god. But because they had to rush to build the trap, it actually wasn't fully successful. Some of the dripstone, including the one meant for three below zero, had failed. But overall, the trap still killed the leader of Appirion, Alkaline Alk, a leader of the Commonwealth, Coraline, and four other very highranking officials from across the island. The people of Island 2 were devastated, confused, and angry. Our leader's dead. What just happened? After the trap went off, Saraphim was immediately caught and killed. Oh, poorricolor. But when more people found out about how exactly their leaders died, their anger wasn't really towards Saraphim, but toward the person they believed was behind it all, Saps. And it made sense. Saps knew he'd be hosting leaders at his home. It was his roof that had a secret trap, a trap that happened to fit perfectly into the design of the roof. Saps was about as guilty as it was possible to be. With that, all the major island nations from the Commonwealth to the Cass Coalition to Triricolor to Luminara declared Saps to be hunted down and killed while Flux got away with it all. If you had to betray one person to save the thousand, would you do that? And on top of all of this, at the beginning of day six, it was announced that tomorrow on day seven, the border between the two islands will finally fall. Both islands now have one day to prepare. [Music] Now, when the people of Island Blood saw the chaos happening on the other island, most just didn't really care about it. A lot of the hatred against Island 2 that was popular in the early days had faded away. That is except for this player named Oenheimer who was determined to take out Barbie land because in 2023 the Barbie movie had outsold the Oppenheimer movie. I'm building a nuclear rocket that will make yesterday's chaos look like child's play. But when Oenheimer tried testing his nuke, it went up and up and up and was never seen again. H. Now, day six did present some new challenges for some of the civilizations. For example, at Nevermore. What is this? So, what are you doing up here? I got voted out because they hate me. Oh, come on. What about me? What? I didn't do anything. Meanwhile, at Allesium, I hate being a leader. Everyone here is so stubborn. Venji was having trouble getting laws passed because his people kept opposing any changes that threatened their peaceful lifestyle. The people of Allesium were generally skeptical of government officials, sometimes even holding trials against them. Although this particular trial did not go to plan. Guys, somebody stole Gerald. What? The mushroom cow Gerald has been stolen. Let's go. There they all go. Meanwhile, at West Helm, there was a bit of a food problem going on. Not a shortage, a feud. See, Remy the Rat had opened up a new restaurant right across from the coliseum. But the food was questionable. Is poison. So, his customers had instead started buying their food from another player named Dinosaur. That is until Oh my god. Oh my god. What is he permanently closed? All food is now at Remy. Are you behind the Bur of Dinos Earth? Anyway, on day six, the West Helm Coliseum was finally complete. What do you plan on using this arena for? Do I actually have to say legally? No. Maybe a little bit of blood will be shed, but that's all I can say. While Shoud was a popular leader who got things done, he had also developed a reputation of being a little unstable. He said outlandish things, he can't stand meetings, and his justice system wasn't by courthouse, but by combat. This is something Shmood's first attempted assassin, Ramsayer, tried to prevent. It's why he tried to kill Shmood and he wouldn't be the only one. There has been a small but coordinated secret revolution growing in West Helm with aims to overthrow and murder Shoo. The two leading figures are West Helm citizen Ramsey Pie and West Helm's head builder Knight Arcturus. You know, I helped design his coliseum not knowing Shoo actually wanted to use it for bloodshed. He's insane. The first part of their plan was to take out Shoot's second in command, a player named Oo. Yeah. All right. Yeah, that's right. I guess second command down. But Ramsay Pie was immediately chased down by West Helm's army. You could have made something happen, man. Oh. Oh. With Ramsay Pi dead, Knight Arcturus became the sole leader of the revolution. But he also knew it was only a matter of time before Shoo finds out about his plans. I want to make one thing clear. Anybody who is caught plotting against me will be executed in the name of West Helm. Glory to West Helm. Glory to West. Glory to West. Now, before the border drops, the island one leaders all met to discuss what to do about the netherites in the volcano. Going into the meeting, people were not happy with Infernace and the Linguini Mafia, who were believed to be keeping Netherite to themselves. Please keep all your weapons holstered at all times unless you absolutely have to take them. The meeting began with West Helm's representative and Shootout's newly appointed second in command, Spider. We asked if you had Netherite and you lied. You said there was no Netherite, that you would, you know, you had looked in it and that you hadn't found any. Because people were immediately starting to gang up on Infernace. Benji from Allesium tried to keep the peace. Why is it Infernace's job to report on the Netherite? There were people literally going into their territory, mine without authorization, and then accuse them of doing something wrong. After some more discussion, Infernis was asked the big question. Will you open up rights to mining underneath the volcano? [Music] It is still our land. It is still the place where we live. And of course, trade, things like trade are important, but in terms of opening up the volcano, it is an adamant no. Now, Lingolini, Citica's biggest ally, was about to speak, but what he ended up saying was unexpected. We have to humbly disagree with infernness of not allowing anyone else to mine in the volcano. This is island one. We're all struggling against the nature and everything like that. Shouldn't we all be allowed to mine wherever we please? No way. Yes. Hell yes. Break. Soon, people started offering deals to Infernice. I I believe we'd be open to give you resources since it is your land. But Cynica still said no. The volcano is still our sacred land. We don't want hundreds of people there mining and ravaging it. As a result, Linguini went even further. On the day one, Mario was here on the volcano and we're able to mine there, but it's not fair that no one else can mine. While your queen is over there with the diamond boots, some people don't even have any armor. Bad boots. Eventually, people started using scare tactics. That volcano is insanely active right now. It will most likely erupt within the next few days. I doubt it. I doubt it. No, that's sci-fi propaganda. That's propaganda. And so, after even more discussion, West Helm made a final plea. We have a representative from every single nation on this island. You have an opportunity here to unite us all. Or you have an opportunity to totally destroy that unitedness. But Cynica still wouldn't budge. For now, it's a no. So, Lingalini made a big announcement. Mario has a large chunk of territory in the volcano. The Linguini family declares independence from Infernace and he will open mining to anybody who wants Cynica's leaving. Cynica had left the meeting furious at Lingalini's betrayal. I wish we had a better outcome of this meeting. Zaps, what just happened? Dude, what just happened? Every leader in front of me just died and you had nothing to do with it. It had It wasn't me. Someone was in the roof. I'm getting framedish. Following yesterday's trap, Saps was on the run as he was now the most wanted and notorious criminal on Island 2. I'm rude. What am I supposed to do? He had no choice but to hide amongst the dense jungles and swamps of the southern island. But he also knew that the longer he hid, the more guilty he looked. So earlier he had decided that he would turn himself in under the condition that he is given a fair trial. Flux, meanwhile, was satisfied with the success of his plan. But it wasn't over quite yet. We got two leaders left to kill. Call me Cass and of course the guy who demoted me. And because Sarapim was dead, Flux sent another member of his crew to take care of the job. Oh no. Oh no. [Music] To the world, this looked like yet another senseless assassination. But to Flux, it was the strategic progression toward making the people of Island 2 paranoid. So paranoid that they wouldn't trust anybody, and especially not Island One. building. In fact, the new leadership of Tricolor was already preparing for Island One to invade. I think we should secure our nation, make sure we have plans when when inevitable war and fighting starts. Sending aid to Island One was officially off the table, and the construction of the Luminara Bridge had come to a stop. After all these days, Flux's plan was finally working. [Applause] [Music] Now, the cast coalition, meanwhile, hosted a diplomatic meeting on day six to try and increase the morale of Island 2 before the border drops. Although Cass herself was too scared to attend the meeting, I am like I want to enter, but my members are telling me not to because there was an attempt on my life yesterday. Right. Because Cass was one of the last remaining major leaders on island 2, she now had guards with her at all times. Here, I'll trade you armor. What? Want to make sure you guys do not die. Please don't die. That said, everyone would soon be tuning into the trial of Saparada to find out whether Saps will be freed or executed. Several nations argued over who would get to host the trial, but the Commonwealth ended up winning. We've made this beautiful venue to show the world that the Commonwealth is still the strongest. But first, [Music] computer and up. No, they're not running. They're bringing it to the down, [Applause] but I can't see. Wait, they made it rising lava in the mud. So, remember that discovery that Sidefall made? Well, it was a warden, also known as the most dangerous creature in all of Minecraft. Sidefall had then renamed the warden to rising lava, so that when he was accidentally killed by it, the entirety of Island One went into a panic. The lava is not rising, but this is just as dangerous. [Applause] The Warden had been unleashed onto Island One, going from place to place, terrorizing civilization. around. Oh my god. How is anyone going to stop this? Until eventually it got to West. But the West Helm army was ready. London ground. Ready. Aim. Fire. [Music] [Music] Oh my gosh. [Music] Welcome to West [Music] [Music] [Music] The defendant, Sapparata, is accused of seven counts of murder, including the murder of Joe, the murder of Alkaline Al, and the murder murder of our very own Coraline. I will hear the prosecution's argument followed by the defense and then I shall make my ruling. Okay, guys. I feel really unsafe right now. Prosecution. Go ahead. Your honor, Saps constructed a meeting hall which contained the deadly trap pointed at everybody but himself. As a prelude for the meeting, he had his accomplice, Saraphim, assassinate his leader before running to the trigger, ready to pull the trap. He then fled the scene after the trap went off, just long enough after faking his surprise. He is not only a cold-blooded murderer, but a terrorist. The prosecution then called a survivor of the trap, Ze, to the stand. We know after investigating that only one seat had no trap. Can you identify who was sitting in that seat? It was Sapar. And who built the meeting hall with that seat? It was Saps. You killed our leaders. You destroyed our island. May your death today satisfy us all. Then it was time for the defense for Saps to give the most important speech of his life. All I ever wanted for this island was peace and cooperation between the nations. The loss at the meeting yesterday was extremely devastating and came out of nowhere. But I can tell you right now, I'm innocent. It wasn't me. The leadership in Luminara helped me build the meeting area. He's going to expose and were the only people who knew about the area before the leadership meeting. That includes the prosecution himself, Thomas 5200. Rotation Snowbird 334 and their ring leader, Fluxion, when I left to gather the leaders for the meeting, they must have snuck into the roof of the meeting to make the trap. The people who I thought I can trust the most used me for their malicious intent and killed the leaders and blamed it on me. Saps had figured out he was betrayed and framed by his friend Flux. But he would end up making a critical mistake. I find it rather interesting that Three Below, the leader of Luminara, is one of the only people who survived the trap. I find that rather about the trap, too. Well, Saps falsely assumed that Three Below Zero, the beloved leader of Luminara, was also behind the murders. And with that mistake, Saps turned everyone against him. Zaps, is that all you have to say? I guess. All right, I'm ready to make my decision. I, Judge Timebomb, find Sapper. Guilty on all counts. Yes. Zap is to be taken to the top of the gauntlet and executed immediately. down. [Music] [Music] Wait, is he right? No way. No way. [Music] Heat. Where'd he go? Where'd he go? Bodyguard. He escaped, man. Did he actually get away? You got to be kidding me. No. [Music] You killed our leaders. You destroyed our island. Murderer. Murder killer. Why did you kill disgraced saps? Why did you do this? [Music] Shouldn't it be dropping soon? Yeah, I think so. [Music] [Music] It was day seven, which means the border had officially dropped. At first, people were kind of in awe. Wa! This is beautiful. Going from one island to another after all this time was a major culture shock. Is this island one? Wa. And as expected, island one people immediately started taking resources from island 2. They're taking the sheep. But the flow of resources wasn't all in one direction. I'm probably going to take some gravel back to island 2. We don't have a lot of it. Still, as people from the two islands started meeting for the first time, they were surprisingly friendly to each other. Like these two who made a tunnel connecting the islands from underground. This is amazing. We've linked island one and island two. For the longest time, island 2 feared an invasion by Island One. But on day seven, that fear completely disappeared. It became very clear that Island 1 had no interest in war. Instead, they were just happy that they could finally enjoy Island 2 for themselves. The water isn't boiling. That said, at the beginning of day seven, Lingolini made a big decision. He had decided to move out of the volcano and relocate his entire mafia to island 2. See, this is much more organized than island one. After yesterday's Netherite meeting, which got a little heated, Lingalini had legitimate fears that Infernice might seek revenge against him. So, hoping to live a more peaceful life, Linguini went far away and settled in the cast coalition. So, so you're the leader of a mafia, I've heard. Yes, we are. But we might do some rebranding over here. Are you guys like violent? H we weren't violent much. But we have done some political talk that is not been taken well, which is the reason why we're here. Sensing potential danger, Cass decided it was best for Linguini to set up his home outside the Cass Coalition. [Music] That said, the Cass Coalition was now bigger than ever before. On day seven, Cass hosted a funeral for the deceased Wood Daddy, and over a hundred people across both islands showed up. We are gathered here today in the cherished memory of Wood Daddy, a beacon of kindness in our community. While Cass's influence grew, the Commonwealth was in shambles. Saps trial yesterday was a disaster for the Commonwealth. Islands who had entrusted the Commonwealth to run the trial of Saps. So when Saps escaped his execution, people lost all faith in the Commonwealth, which at one point was the most powerful civilization in the world. On day seven, most of the Commonwealth leaders resigned, leaving just one player, Sitskrieg, as the sole ruler of the Commonwealth. We're actively searching for Saps right now. We will restore honor to the Commonwealth. One of Sitk's biggest goals was to find and kill Saps. But his other big goal was to regrow the Commonwealth's population, which by this point had shrunk by a lot. So he sent out a lot of public invites, especially to the people of Island One. And it actually did work until one of the people who moved in was Night Arc Turus, the lead builder of Westhelm, who had to flee from West Helm because Shoo had found out about his secret plans for revolution. Yeah, the Commonwealth is letting us hide out here. As long as Shoo doesn't find us, we should be okay. Speaking of fugitives, the world's biggest fugitive, Saps, was back to hiding in the jungle after miraculously escaping from his trial. Although his spirits were quickly fading, everyone thinks I'm a murderer. I just don't want to anymore. Saps knew that Sitskri in the Commonwealth soon planned to scout the entire southern islands to hunt him down. So on day seven, Saps decided that his best bet was to leave his home island and flee to island one. But it wouldn't be so easy. Because the border had just dropped, people were constantly going back and forth between the two islands, which means traveling by sea could be dangerous. So Saps decided on another method of travel. He went to the place where he was least expected. [Music] He's trying to use the bridge. No way. No way. [Music] What the heck? What are you doing, bro? [Music] Island one. Now, instead of chasing Saps, the Luminara builders instead retreated to inform everyone else that Saps was on his way to island one. Saps, meanwhile, quickly sailed the rest of the way to the other island. Although what happened next was unexpected. Oh, there he is. Hey, buddy. Whoa. He's scared the crap out of me. Am I allowed to touch this water? Yeah, right. Yeah, you know, it's Yeah, it's good. On the south side of the island, it's safe. It turns out earlier Saps had reached out to a bunch of people on island one, offering them two stacks of diamonds if they give him a safe place to hide. And out of all people to accept his offer, it was Turntab, the leader of the Covenant, the most feared and militaristic civilization on island 1. How was the trip? Uh, I ran across the giant bridge that Luminar is building and like all of Luminar was there. When Zaps and Tertap finally arrived at the Covenants, Tertap immediately distributed Zaps's diamonds to the Covenant army. But then, in a surprising move, he sent them out on a secret mission. Turntap had sent the Covenant hit squad to Island 2, but not to accomplish a goal for the Covenant per se, but actually upon the request of Infernace. [Music] Linguini betrayed us, humiliated us. He ruined our sacred land. Yesterday, Lingalini had opened up the volcano for Netherite mining. And as such, people from all across island 1 had started mining in the volcano. And even though Linguolini had now moved out of the volcano, Cynica felt that since people were already mining, she had no choice but to let them stay. She was not happy about what Linguini had done. And Synica wanted revenge. Oh, they're killing the entire mafia. Another one, baby. Oh my god. Now, the reason the Covenant was willing to do Cynica's bidding wasn't just because she led the mind for Netherite before anyone else. But because as a civilization that values honor and loyalty, the Covenant didn't appreciate how Linguini so publicly betrayed Inveris. Look, they found him. Hey, you ever thought about diplomacy? We could have had Island One at peace and world peace. And we still can really. Oh, here they go. But over my grave, he will not be a part of it. Oh, they've got him. They've got him. Mia. The Covenant had massacred the Lingolini mafia. Before anyone could retaliate, the Blue Cross announced they would schedule a hearing, calling on the Covenant to explain what they had done. Howdy, Flux. Oh. Oh, you got some fancy armor now. Yeah, got it from Island One. Wait, really? Earlier today, Flux and his crew had gotten their hands on a super rare armor trim by trading with the Covenant, who had picked up the armor trim from the Warden when it died. Now, of course, Flux had no idea that the Covenant was also trading with and harboring his arch nemesis, Saps. But he did know one thing. I heard Saps ran to Island One, so we put out a massive bounty on his head. Flux was now determined to have Saps killed because Saps was the only other person in the world who knew that Flux was behind the murders of all the Island 2 leaders. Basically, if Saps dies, Flux gets away with everything. And ideally, the sooner Saps dies, the better because of incidents like yesterday. That includes the prosecution himself and their ring leader, Fluxion. [Music] Fortunately for Flux, it didn't seem like anyone at the trial believed Saps. If anything, Saps's accusation only made people hate him more, especially the people of Luminara, who weren't happy that Saps accused some of their fellow citizens. What do you want to do to Sapill? We hunted him down the other day. We're going to find him, but we have a speculation on where he is. After the murder of their beloved leader, Three Below Zero, Luminara soon planned to host an election, and the current front runner was a player named Legacy. Me and my parent, we've just been going around to different houses, knocking on doors. I think we're going to win this thing. For a moment, Flux also considered a run for leader. Although he had basically already accomplished everything he wanted to do. Look, no matter what people say, Island One was planning to invade us. They would have just walked right ahead. But now that we have stronger leaders, more cautious leaders, they're not going to do that. We have world peace. And not because of a bridge, but because of me. Since the beginning, Flex's philosophy was simple. You can never show kindness to your enemy if your enemy wishes to destroy you. If you build a bridge, they'll use it to invade you. If you offer them aid, they'll use it to kill you. This is why Flux believed it was necessary to eliminate the island two leaders who wished to be kind. But the cost of their deaths was devastating. The people of Triccolor still mourned Joeoffield, building a massive statue to honor their deceased leader. We just been trying to focus on restabilizing our nation. Obviously, the passing of Joe hit us pretty hard. Meanwhile, the people of Apirion had elected a new leader, but Appirion was never quite the same after the death of Alkaline Elk. The people of the Commonwealth were also in shambles, having a much smaller civilization than they started with. And even though there was some peace on island 2, people didn't feel a sense of calm, but instead a sense of unease and revenge. They needed closure, and they were determined to kill the person who they believed murdered the leaders they loved. Saps knew that it was only a matter of time before someone hunts him down or someone in the Covenant betrays him to collect the massive bounty on his head. So, Saps made a lastditch effort to try and get a strong ally for his cause. He asked Turntap to take him to the largest nation on island one. Oh, this is fire. [Music] But on their way to the West Helm Capital building, they ran into a citizen of Apirion from Island 2 who recognized Saps. Oh. Oh, hey. Is there a problem here? Neutral ground. Neutral ground. West territory. Uhoh. Okay. Okay. Uh, we really walk in peace. Walk in peace. Good call. Samsaps and his crew then entered the capital. Hello. Can I Can I speak to the glorious leader of West, please? Yeah, I'll go grab him. Hello. The Covenant leaders brought me. Can we Can we have a meeting? I'm not going to lie, Saps. I You coming to me asking for a meeting after what happened last time? Even if it wasn't today with you. Listen, I just want to talk. What about at least explain cuz I'm innocent. Saps, I'm sorry. No. Ultimately, Shabbood rejected Saps's request for a meeting because Shabbood didn't exactly trust him and had no real reason to help him. So, instead, Saps tried another civilization, the Alcarasina pirates. [Music] Although, when he arrived, things felt a little off. Now, since you're here, you have to drop all your gears. Well, about that. wherever wherever you think is the safer option. At the end of the day, I don't want any of you guys to get killed for something that I'm being framed for, you know. But then suddenly [Music] what? Where's he going? Turntab had realized that the pirates were planning to kill Saps to collect the massive bounty on his head. So he told Saps to run. What's going on? Uh, one sec. We got to go back to Covenant like immediately. We probably shouldn't have come out here. Now on their way back to the Covenants, Turntap suddenly started acting suspicious himself. Is every Are we safe? Is everything fine? What's going on? Uh, we need to go back to Covenant right now. You need to tell me what's going on or I'm not coming with you, dude. Either like either you can handle this on your own. Like just here, I'll explain to you on a sec. Just come on. isn't. It's hard to trust people right now, so I'm putting a lot of faith into you. This is so suspicious. As Saps ran, he pondered his choices. Either he puts his life in the hands of Turntap, who may be wanting to kill him and collect the bounty for himself, or he runs away now. [Music] It's all alone. Saps then climbed the mountains of Island One, escaping from the last remaining person he thought he could trust. He was now all alone in a world of people who hated him and wanted him dead. [Music] And so he ventured into the snow [Music] and started collecting blocks. Zaps, what are you doing? I can't trust anybody. Flux won. He completely won. There's just no point anymore. On day seven, Saps built a tower in the tundra, a monument for people to remember him by. And he planned to jump off, [Music] but he didn't. If I have to die, I'm going to make sure he does, too. [Music] Welcome everyone. Today we have two new prisoners who will fight to the death. RIT, you are charged with the attempted murder of several innocent West Helm farmers. Remy, you are charged with conspiracy to murder West Helm food supplier Dino. Ready, set, fight. Here they go. Put that switch some G. the [Music] he won. Remy the rat had won his duel in the coliseum and all of his crimes, including the murder of dinosaurs, were expuned from his record by Emperor Shood himself. He was now a legend, and his restaurant became more popular than ever before. He put his head on the floor. Now, it's been a busy few days for Emperor Shoodude. He was always working on different things. Have you seen our aqueduct? Show me your aqueduct. Shood, look at it behind you. Look at it. So, what's the use of this? I don't really know. What is the point of anything? We just build. We have too many builders. Not enough ideas. Now, while Shood was an effective leader, he did have to constantly watch his back for assassins. You know, I I've thwarted like five assassination attempts. And guess what? I've just found out about another. No way. Spoon's entire reign began with him almost being killed. So, he was always extra careful and sensitive about where he went and who he associated with. It's also why Shpoon was particularly angry when he found out that one of the people who planned to kill him was his own lead builder, Night Arurus. According to some of my sources, Knight Arcturus was seen in the Commonwealth earlier today. Really? Shoot had sent spies across the world to find Night Arurus. And when they discovered he was staying at the Commonwealth, Shootout immediately reached out to Sitsk to request he be handed back to West Hill. However, given that the Commonwealth was low on citizens and needed good builders, Sits Craig decided to reject Shood's request. I'm not just going to give up one of my builders. The Commonwealth does not give into tyrants. This made Shoot erupt with fury. I'm going to make sure that everybody knows the Commonwealth is corrupt. race. [Applause] [Music] And so Shoot went around telling everyone about how much he hates the Commonwealth. This whole situation became a massive drama. And it actually got to the point where the rest of Island 2 was getting annoyed with the Commonwealth. I don't get why the Commonwealth doesn't just hand them over. We don't need a war with West. Unlike the Commonwealth, Cass had a big population and she didn't care about losing citizens who were troublemakers. For example, earlier one of her citizens, Addison 27, had gone to tririccolor, dug into Choffield's grave, and had stolen Choffield's head. Can I wear this kick ass? I brought you a But instead of protecting him, Cass immediately banished Addison from the Cass coalition and alerted of his location, causing Addison to flee Island 2. It was this kind of nononsense leadership that earned Cass a lot of respect from not only her citizens but other island two nations who were now much more willing to ally with Cass than with the Commonwealth. The very existence of the Cass coalition also provided a sense of security to smaller groups like this new nation who were mostly cheese merchants and call themselves the concodors. This is the way of cheese. [Music] Since the border dropped yesterday, the economies of most island two nations were prospering with heavy amounts of trade and tourism between islands. Meanwhile, in Barbie land is I have news. What? I'm marrying Oenheimer. What? On day eight, the player Oppenheimimer had marched into Barbie land, but instead of destroying it with a nuke, he apparently liked it so much that he proposed to their leader. Yes, consider this your invitation to the Barenheimimer wedding. Thank you. In Luminara, meanwhile, the citizens were inventing new technologies. This is the power switch. It's 16 furnaces working together simultaneously, and it has a bunch of hopper mine carts on the inside distributing everything. As much as Luminara was finally starting to live up to its name as the light of Island 2, little did its citizens know, among them was quietly living the world's most deadly group of terrorists. I'm thinking of running in the election tomorrow. Oh, yeah. Legacy is pretty popular, but I'm not worried. While it seems like each of the islands two nations had their own separate goals, they were all still united under one mission to find and kill SAPS. In fact, by day eight, Luminara had told all the other nations that Saps had fled to Island One, and some nations were already preparing to send out hit squads later today. But Island One, meanwhile, was currently dealing with a whole other political drama. The murder of Linguin. I I cannot conceive how we are being this civil about this. They came in, they found him in the hole, they drowned him in lava. This player, Vietnam, was one of the few remaining survivors in the Lingolini Mafia. Venom had escaped the Covenant's attack and wanted to get revenge against the Covenant, but was finding it surprisingly difficult to gather support. See, while the Blue Cross condemned the Covenants, nobody was brave enough to declare war on them. People feared the Covenant and its army, which is why Cynica secretly asked them to do the deed instead of doing it herself. If people knew that she was behind the attack, she would be in big trouble. But for now, nobody would face any consequences for the massacre of the Lingulini mafia. [Music] Going back to West Helm on day eight, Emperor Shepood was really only thinking about one thing, how to get revenge against Knight Arcturus. After the Commonwealth rejected Shmood's extradition request, Shmood's initial reaction was to begin preparing for war. But what made him think twice was his belief that the Commonwealth was a massive nation with probably a big army. Shmood also knew that declaring war could risk the entirety of Island 2 coming to the Commonwealth's defense and maybe launching a counterattack on West Helm. So Shmood decided to change strategies. He instead decided to try and bait the Commonwealth. See if he can make them angry enough to do something rash, something bad enough that would allow Shoot to then declare war and have everyone support. And Shoo knew exactly how to make the Commonwealth angry. He invited back to the West Helm Capitol the one person he knew the Commonwealth hated the most. We're running out of time. Saps is back and Turntap's here too for some reason. This is interesting because the Covenant had brought Saps to West Helm yesterday. Shoot had specifically asked Turntap to protect Saps and escort him to West Helm once again. While Saps didn't fully trust Turntap or Spoon for that matter, he knew that a meeting with Spoon was a massive opportunity and it was worth the risk. And you you can turn the sun away. Paint the moon in blood. If we can do what we do best, we're not turn. [Music] Saps, you are the person that to my knowledge murdered all those people on island one. It was not me. There is a person on island 2 that is behind all of the assassinations and the corruption. His name is Flexion. Emperor Shood was having trouble believing Saps, but he went along with it for now. Well, it seems like we both have gripes with Island 2. Shoo then proceeded to tell Saps and the Covenant about his feud with the Commonwealth and how he needed Island One's support in case a war breaks out. There was just one problem. The Blue Cross Alliance was as good as dead. Infernice had basically left the alliance after the last meeting and the Covenant had stopped responding to the Blue Cross because of the Linguolini situation. So, Shmu decided to take things into his own hands and individually call the big four nations of Island One for a meeting, and he wanted Saps to be there so he could tell the leaders about corruption on island 2. Now, because of Saps's reputation, Synica and Benji were hesitant. But as long as the meeting was in a wide open area without a roof, they decided they would go. So you turn the sun away. How could you be so cruy [Music] night? That's not nice. Not to begin the meeting. Spoon first had Savs tell his story. I've been put on trial and sentenced to death for a crime I did not commit. Shood's goal with this meeting was to convince all the leaders that island 2 was a threat to island one. One of my right-hand men was murdered in cold blood by someone in association with the Commonwealth. It's one of the many injustices I've heard about on island 2, and I want justice. Then turntap of the Covenant made his own statement. A few days ago, Covenant was approached by Luminar to speak of a potential trade agreement. Legacy Aen approached me in regards to Fluxion, the guy who saps is claiming killed everyone, which I do believe. Whoa. Apparently, back when the Covenant traded armor trims with Flux, they had also done the same deal with Legacy. and Legacy had voiced concerns to Tertap about Flux's run for leader, including how Flux was demoted from second in command and rumors that he's paying people diamonds to vote for him. This gave Sapsson boot stories a little more credibility, which was crucial for getting everyone on board with Lehelm's military proposal, which was, "If any nation from island 2 attacks Island One, then the entirety of Island One must strike back. If all leaders are in agreement to this, please say I. I. I. Um, this is for us a problem. Benji was hesitant to join any military alliance because Allesium was the nation of peace and he knew that his people were opposed to any changes that threatened their peaceful lifestyle. Council might not agree. Do you believe if Saps was at the council meeting, would he potentially have the chance to convince him after telling his story? I think he might. As long as Saps agrees, it's up to you. I mean, yeah. Saps and a few of the others then walked to Allesium on a mission to reunite island one. [Music] I have been framed for the mass assassination of the two leaders by Flexion and his conspirators. So many other people have died to the same tyranny and corruption that has been on islands too and just so lucky to be alive and share my story with you guys. But as Sap spoke, the people of Allesium still had some doubts corrup against the corruption in island 2, which is what is that fake? What is the corruption? Allesium wasn't convinced that potential corruption on another island was enough of a reason for Allesium to get involved. But then suddenly, a few days ago, what the what is this? About 15 members of the West Helm army had inexplicably walked right through Allesium. They quickly left, but it certainly didn't help the tensions. Nonetheless, the proceedings continued. They're being rushed here to pressure us. We're going to be deciding whether Allesium citizens would go to war. I think Allesium citizens need to have a say in that. I agree. After even more deliberation and after even more time passed, Excuse me. Excuse me. I have to say something important. The troop of uh people that came by, they are the apparently the military from the West Helm. We have reasonable suspicions to believe they are going to launch an invasion of Island 2 in the next like 5 minutes. I do not know what you talking about. Emperor Spood had grown impatient. After Spider informed him that progress was stalling, Spoon had decided to send a squadron of the West Helm army into the Commonwealth's territory to find and arrest Night Arcturus. Oh boy, they're almost there, I think. Hello. We are here peacefully. We're simply looking for a man by the name of Knight_AR Turus. All right. We don't have him. We do not know where he's at. We have not seen him, nor have we heard. We don't have him. Where are they going? Is that it? Uh, it with their first plan failing, West Helm went to plan B. Shield wall. Shield wall. What the What's happening, guys? They're forming a shield wall. They're forming a shield wall out here. Everyone leave. We're getting out of here. Yeah. All right, everyone bail. Bail. The West Helm squadron had successfully intimidated the Commonwealth leadership into fleeing their own nation. West Helm then went around searching every house, every mine, every crevice of the Commonwealth. But ultimately, Night Arurus was nowhere to be found. [Music] Meanwhile at the cast coalition, [Music] can I uh run something by you real quick? Yeah. You know how everyone's trying to kill Saps because of what he did and then during his trial he was all like Luminara was behind this. Luminara built the trap. The leadership in Luminara helped me build the meeting area. That includes the prosecution himself, Thomas 5200, and their ring leader, Fluxion. So, I was sailing past Saps's place a few days ago. My god, this dude is digging for what? Oh, you see that? You see that guy? Yeah. Isn't that Flux? Yeah, it kind of looks like him. Yeah. What's he doing at Sapsu's place? And why is he gathering blocks? You go to show Cass. [Music] What do you think? Interesting. Um, you know what? Go show this toricolor and probably also Pyion. I'm on it. [Music] A citizen of the cast coalition had been reviewing his old video footage when he happened to notice Flux digging for sand, a prevalent material in Saps's roof. On its own, this wasn't the best evidence, but for some people, it did raise some questions. [Music] Yesterday, Saps had spent the day getting brought into meetings with the most important people on Island One, and he didn't really know what to make of this. In one sense, he was incredibly lucky to finally have some support. But he also questioned how real this support is and who he can really trust. See, Saps knew that the Covenant generally did not like the people of Island 2. The Covenant believed that Island One was the supreme island with better culture, customs, and traditions. They were also known to be ruthless, having massacred the entire Lingolini mafia. It's why Saps was suspicious of Turntap's offer to continue protecting him, especially after he ran away. But Saps knew he needed powerful allies as world tensions were ramping up. When Spoon invaded the Commonwealth yesterday, he got a lot of criticism, mostly from his own neighbors, who were blindsided by the move. Spoon could have dragged all my people into war. Elisium is a nation of peace. Like that, any hope for a big four alliance was basically dead. Especially since the other nations were now dealing with problems of their own. Earlier yesterday, Queen Cynica had found out that Allesium's newspaper, Daybreak Media, had somehow found out that she had directed the Covenant to kill Lingolini. This is why Cynica was so quiet yesterday during the Island One snow meeting. She knew this story would be coming out and she was trying to figure out how she would respond. And on day nine, she made her decision. to dissuade people from invading Infernace. She would show strength by doubling down and hold a joint ceremony with the Covenants parading around Linguini's head. [Music] Let this be a lesson. Shame to those who disrespect our volcano. [Music] On the other side of the island, the Blue Cross was hosting a meeting. Vietnam. I'm getting word that Infernace is having a ceremony to burn the head of Mario. If I can't get his head back, then it's war. I will put my hands around Egypt. Everyone, the leaders and representatives then decided that Infernice needed to be punished. And they started discussing whether or not to declare war. But then, not even a minute into the discussion, if everyone is against them, then we are not going Benji's dead. Benji's dead. What? Benji, the leader of Allesium, had suddenly died. And before anyone could even ask about what happened, a member of Daybreak Media made a shocking revelation. We know that uh Benji had been one of the people who made the call to kill Lingalini. What? Apparently, Benji had admitted to Daybreak Media that he alongside Infernace had approved the killing of Lingulini. At the time, Benji believed that killing Lingalini would finally resolve the conflict over the volcano and bring peace to the island. But he ended up seriously regretting this decision. So he told Daybreak media everything exposed in furnace and then ended his life. [Music] Now because Benji had repented, the Blue Cross Conference decided not to punish Allesia and instead focused on Infernace. Yeah, I don't know about war. Maybe a trial. Give Infernace a chance to tell their side. Flux was representing Luminara at the meeting and the leaders actually agreed with his idea. So later today there would be a trial against the entire nation of Infernace. Now when the meeting came to an end, Flux was approached by a few guards from we know about the assassinations. All right. What ass? You're under arrest. You're come You're coming to Tricolor. We're You're going to have a fair trial. Just come with us. What are you talking about? Tryolor had issued an arrest warrant for Flux after they obtained incriminating video evidence from a citizen of the Cass Coalition being possibly responsible for the death of Joel in any capacity. What are you talking about? We know Sarapin was guilty of that. There are concerns that you may have been involved in other ways. If you believe yourself innocent, I believe that you are. I trust that you're innocent because you told me you were. But right now, the most important thing you can do is simply go to the trial and prove that you're correct, which I believe this is an outrage against Luminara. I cannot believe that you would accuse me of this. Now, the truth wasn't necessarily convinced that Flux was guilty. They just wanted Flux to go to trial so that he could answer their questions about the videotape. Why didn't you not bring this up beforehand? Run away. You're seriously scared that I'm going to run away from a trial. You agree after what happened with the Commonwealth we could ever be too careful about stuff like that? We're both fine, I will go. But this is this is an outrage. All right, let's go. We're going to we're going to remember this. We will not stand for this. Fox is getting arrested by Tricolor. He's like stopping every few seconds. He'll stop. Don't worry about The group then passed through Allesium and were about to sail off to island 2 until Oh, hey. Hey, hey, hey. What is this? What? Dude, wait. Flux is getting away. It turned out Flux had secretly told a member of his own crew to come and attack him so that he could run away from his arrest without looking guilty. When Flex returned to Luminara, his whole world had flipped upside down. He believed he had covered all his tracks, that he had gotten away with everything. But for now, he had to remain calm and decide on his next move. Legacy. Yeah. We've just been informed that you have ties to the Covenant, and they're working with SAS the traitor. So, the problem is we're afraid you're a national security threat. You have two choices right now. You either drop out of the election this instant or we can do this the hard way. Oh, that's tough. All right. By forcing Legacy to drop out of the election, Flux had automatically become the leader of Luminara. Which means if Triricolor still wanted to arrest him, they wouldn't be able to just walk ahead and take him. They would have to invade Luminara itself. [Music] Yesterday, Emperor Spoon had caused a lot of chaos with his failed attempt to capture Night Arurus. So, he spent day nine repairing relationships, but also forming new ones. For example, earlier Shoot had received a message from a player named Addison 27, who wanted to sell Joe Fuel's head in exchange for Netherite. Shoot accepted the deal, gave Addison a place to meet him at, but then he gave Addison's location straight toricolor. armor. Show us the head. Show us. Show us the head. Yeah, there it is. Give it right now. I got it. Now, this actually led to an alliance between West Helm and Tricolor, the first ever multi- island alliance and a strategic move by Shmood to befriend the neighbors of the Commonwealth. Later, Shmood also visited the Covenant after he heard about some civil unrest going on. So, they all just left just like that. Apparently, about half of the Covenant's entire population had decided to leave the Covenant. This is because they believed Turntap was betraying the Covenant's values by constantly trading and associating with Island 2. And what made a lot of them really angry was the fact that Turntap was making them protect Saps. See, originally Turntap had only brought Saps in to get diamonds for his army. But the more he heard about Saps's story, the more he became captivated by Saps and wanted to help him. In fact, the reason Turnup had acted strangely on day seven wasn't because he was thinking about killing Saps. It was because he had just saved Saps from the Alcatosina pirates and he was worried that the pirates would attack the Covenant in retaliation. Walk ahead. Anyway, now that Turntap had the pirates against him, as well as much of the Covenant forces, which Turntap himself had trained to be ruthless, it's fair to say that his life was in grave danger. But before he and Shmood could figure out a solution, the Covenant suddenly had a surprise visitor. Come here. You're under arrest. Uh-oh. Yo, they're trying to kill me. You killed our leaders. You destroyed our island. After days upon days of searching, the Commonwealth had finally found Saps. It's literally the guy. Saps is now hiding. This player, Ze, was now the main diplomat of the Commonwealth, and he knew that this was his opportunity to finally kill Saps. The last thing he needed to do was to convince Shpoud to hand Saps over. Shepood, come here. Please, let's have a talk. Let's have a chat. Are you the friend of this criminal behind you? All right. Um, could you guys come inside? Oh, boy. Here we go. [Music] We can put all of our fighting behind us. I propose a trade. You give me Zaparada and the Commonwealth gives you Knight Arcturus. Oh, wow. RT for Zaps. I mean, where would this happen? You can let us take Z Sapper now and then we can kill Arctus for you. No, no, don't kill him. He needs to fight in the coliseum. [Music] All right, we can make that work as well. Wait, so you're saying you know where he is? It's interesting because Seek said he didn't. Okay, we don't have him. We do not know where he's at. Look, he comes back every now and then. We'll find him. Really? Is that so? Why would I lie? So, you'll find him for me. Shoot, don't do this. Look, I have to be honest. I'm shocked that you're defending this criminal. Either you accept this deal right now or I tell everyone from back home that you're harboring Sapparad. They will all declare war on you and this will be the end of West Helm. So just to make the terms of this deal very clear because I want to be accurate. You expect me to give up an innocent man in exchange for a terrorist? Is that really your offer? He's not innocent. [Music] All right. [Music] [Applause] Get out now. talking dirty playing. I know I'm in the deep [Music] to take you through the night. [Music] Soon it would be time for the trial of infernace which had become a very anticipated event because citica had told everyone that she actually planned to attend. [Music] As such turntap would be there to help her which meant saps also had to go. He wanted the covenant's protection which would actually come in handy. Sap's getting attacked. Oh boy. SAP's getting attacked again. The attacker was taken out immediately by the Covenant, but this led to another problem. We need to know whether we should keep Infernace area. We are worried about assassinations. Not going in a building. We're having this outside. Cynica and the rest of Infernace had arrived but were refusing to enter the courthouse because of safety concerns. Infernus is saying outside or nothing. They're not going in. And as expected, people were quickly becoming impatient. I have to stand here for five more minutes. I'm going to pull all my hair out. Come inside. These people don't have the ability to come in this building. The trial hadn't even begun and things were already out of control. And then someone set a dripstone. [Music] Oh, and like that, Turntap was dead. Killed by two disgruntled former citizens of the Covenant who had come back for revenge. Run the run. Run. Run. They're trying to run. They're trying to burn us back to the castle. Queen Cynica directed her people and all the remaining Covenant forces who were now leaderless to retreat to the Infernace Castle. Both Infernace and the Covenant were eventually found guilty of murdering the Lingalini mafia. But now that Cynica had adopted the entire Covenant army with all of its Netherite weaponry, it would be impossible to try and arrest anyone. Saps, meanwhile, was abandoned at the courthouse, so he ran all the way to West Helm to Emperor Shood, who was apparently dealing with a new political crisis. It appeared that Shood had finally made the Commonwealth mad. Because according to a West Helm spy, it looked like the Commonwealth was preparing to go to war. And on top of this, Shpoon had received a message from Sitskrie inviting him to the Commonwealth for a meeting. Now, of course, Shoot suspected this was a trap, but his second in command, Spider, had an idea. Let me go instead. let them kill me and if they do, we'll have the right to obliterate them. Basically, if Spider goes to this meeting and actually gets killed, then in the eyes of the world, this will give West Helm permission to finally wipe the Commonwealth off the map. You're a hero, Spider. Glory to West. Oh my god. These guys are all waiting for something to happen. Oh my god. It's in the house. Out. Wait, what? Where is everyone? Search. The Commonwealth had been completely abandoned. See, after Zechar's meeting with Spoo, Sitskrieg had tried to rally all of Island 2 against West Helm, but not a single nation joined him. Throughout its days, the Commonwealth had faced chaos, infighting, global humiliation, and now Sitskrieg was utterly defeated. [Music] So, as a final jab against West Helm, Sitskrieg decided to kill Spider before dissolving the Commonwealth once and for all. Sitskrie and his remaining citizens then decided to pack up and relocate to the one place in the world that West Helm wouldn't be able to infiltrate. [Music] Come on in, guys. Welcome to Infernace. Thank you, Cynica. There are so many people. Oh my god, infernus is massive. [Music] [Music] Meanwhile, at the cast coalition, it was the end of another good day. The farmers had produced plentiful crops, the businesses had made lots of sales, and there was even a birthday party. Happy birthday. But while her people were happy, Cass knew very well that the outside world was quickly growing out of control. As leader, it was Cass's duty to keep track of all the world conflicts. But by day nine, they were simply overwhelming. She watched from afar as the Commonwealth fell apart. She watched as world leaders died left and right. She watched Infernice avoid justice by blocking themselves off with Netherite at their defense as well as the volcano's sheer height. Yet, despite all the turmoil, Cass spent most of the day trying to solve what was now the world's biggest mystery. Who had really murdered all the island 2 leaders? Was it Zaps or was it Flux? See, earlier at the Blue Cross meeting, members of the cast coalition were listening carefully. Covenant was propagating anti- island Jew propaganda, which is ridiculous. Yeah, we didn't agree with that. Island One never had beef with you guys. It was really just a covenant. [Music] They can see that Island One is gearing up to invade us. Then at least they'll know I tried to warn them when Island One comes and kills us all. But the Covenant was going to invade us, right? Honestly, probably not. I think they were just trying to scare you guys. Flux had fully believed that Island One was going to invade and even yelled at the other leaders for doing nothing, which made Cass think, "What if that's the reason he killed them?" Besides, what would be Saps's motive? There wasn't even a motive alleged during his trial, yet he was still found guilty. In fact, thinking back, the trial itself was suspiciously short, and the judge made a decision very quickly. Well, on day nine, one of Cass's citizens was scouting the Commonwealth and figured out why. Flux had bribed the judge to ensure Saps was found guilty. When Cass discovered this, she immediately called for a meeting with local leaders. It's been Flux this whole time. I'm so mad. He needs to die. I never thought I'd say this, but you have my permission to invade Luminara. Okay, I'll tell my guys to prepare for battle. No, no, there won't be a battle. We go in, we take them out, we leave. Got it. Sounds good. See? All right, first thing tomorrow. Welcome everyone. Welcome. We gather here today because well, we never got the opportunity to properly mourn our previous leader, Three Below. What's going on here? He was more than just Illuminar. He was a friend. And I'm very much excited that we can continue his legacy and complete the bridge which he would have wanted. Rocket. All right, let's go. Let's go. And so the Cass coalition set off on their mission to kill Flux once and for all. On the way, Cass stopped at a Purion to rally their people. We've found the person responsible for the multiple leader assassinations, including the assassination of your own president. Are we ready to fight for Luminara and for justice? The plan was simple. A Pirion would invade Luminara from the south while the cast coalition approaches from the sea so that Plux can't escape and I just Oh, they're here. They're here. Is running. Surrender. They're after him. Surrender, Flex. I don't want to do this. Okay. Okay. Wait, wait, wait. Surrender. Okay. Surrender. Surrender. Surrender. I'm not moving. I'm not moving. Under the rest, killing Jag, Ali, members of color, and leader of Commonwealth. This is an outrage and attempting my assassination. Hey, stop. Stop. Stop. Clark had stopped and surrendered, but there was a bit of confusion. He's entitled to a fair trial. Wait, I thought going in, Cass had been under the impression that the people of Luminara wanted Flux to be overthrown when in reality, most Luminarians knew nothing about his crimes to a mass murderer right now. Don't let him get through the crowds, guys. Where's Legacy? Luminarans, do you want this man alive? Yeah. To a fair trial. Oh, come on. What are you talking about? Cass. All of a sudden, Cass wasn't sure about what to do until [Applause] he's running. He's running. [Music] What? [Music] Oh my gosh. Oh my god. He's actually He's actually Flux had killed five people using a secret track he had built the day before. This has bought him just enough time to escape. That said, Flux knew there'd be a lot of people after him, so when he dug to the surface, he ran straight to the ocean and fled Island 2. Still, Cass and Appirion sent out hit squads to try and hunt Flux down, while Legacy directed the citizens of Luminara to evacuate. I got to move all of these people over to the concuma. Holy like that, Legacy had taken over as leader of Luminaro. Cass and Appirion were down five citizens, and Flux had gotten away with everything once again. Or so he thought. I am so confused on what's happening right now. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. When Flux's trap went off, the rest of the world had a lot of questions. Was that in Luminara? That was Flux. Wait, Flux killed those people. Yeah. [Music] On day 10, word began to spread about what had happened. That was Flex's trap. Yeah, Flux built that trap. Which made people think, was Flux behind the murders of the Island 2 leaders after all? Dude, I think Flux was behind everything. Shaps was right. Suddenly, the world realized that Saps had been telling the truth. Sap, how do you feel, dude? Finally. Finally. I'm so happy. For the first time since he had gone into hiding, Saps had been vindicated, proven innocent, and the world was finally on his side. [Music] And now instead of hunting for saps. All of island 2 was determined to find flux. Bro, that was This is what happens when people want trials. We should have just started killing him. I don't know why anyone stopped in the first place. I would have been the bad guy if I killed him right then and there with everyone yelling trial. Trial. But the search for Flux didn't take long. Someone just saw Flux going up the volcano. Oh, you're kidding. by [Music] Queen Synica had offered Flux refuge at Infernace under the condition that he and his crew build deadly traps all around the volcano perimeter so that nobody can break in. But the rest of the world was unfaced. Yeah, they're going to pay for what they did. Yep. On day 10, all of 2 joined thericolor west home alliance and declared war against Infernice. [Music] All right. Today we infiltrate the volcano for Spider and Foro. And I just want to say if I die today, I love you all. Glory to West. He was not friend. He was everyone's brother and they took him from us. They took them. Flux got away with murdering so many of our people and our leaders. Today we get justice for our entire island. [Music] Okay. Obama, right, everyone in. I'll meet you at the coliseum. [Music] Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go, everyone. The only cause that things change and I want to blame you orange. A few days ago, my home was turned into a death trap behind my back. I was framed and then forced to go through a rigged trial. Guilty on all counts. A few days ago, every single person in the world wanted me dead. But today, you all know the truth about who really killed our leaders and our friends. That's the Today we walk ahead. We storm the volcano and we get justice. Thank you, saps. All right, everyone. Listen up. There's a lot of things to watch out for. There's going to be lava, boiling water, dripstone traps, their entire army. They have the height advantage and Netherite armor, but we have numbers. So, let's stick together and let's win this thing. Come on. All right. Here we go. [Applause] There's so many people. [Applause] You make me blind. with your civil rights. You demand that Ironize your name. Walk away. Oh my. You I think there might be a problem. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] Walk ahead. [Music] Be can keep provoking blood choking. Can anyone stand this nonsense [Applause] [Music] eating away? Telling us to stop and obey to stop and [Music] they're pouring water on the lava, but the water still burns. [Music] Okay, send out the covenant now. Right now. Go, go, go, go, go. Oh, big fighting on the ground right now. Covenant is attacking from behind. Shine songs in the rain. Heads up. It's just chaos on the ground as well. It's the covenant. [Music] down off our mountain. They got it. They got it. [Music] Hey. [Music] Oh my god. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. It's off. Help me out. Help me out. I hear you. No, surely not. No, of course he doesn't. Of course. I saw him. I saw him. away. He's missing. Hold on. [Music] Come on. All right, guys. Let's go. Let's go. [Music] What? No way. [Music] Wow, you actually showed up. Can't say no to a friend, can I? Let's make this a fair fight. Okay, just kill. Look at all these people dying right now because of you. You know, Saps, none of this would have happened if you had died like you were supposed to. I'm sorry for everything you've had to go through. [Music] [Music] I can't watch this. [Music] [Music] Oh my god. Heat. [Music] Heat. [Music] [Applause] Oh my god. Good job, Z. I have Saps had killed Flux. And with that, Flux's reign of terror was over. [Music] Today we gather to honor the lives lost in the battle of Infernace. Since then, I think we haven't felt the same. I know I certainly don't. The Island 2 West Home Alliance had defeated the Infernace forces, but winning had come at a high cost. After the war, people across the world took time to mourn their dead, reflect upon the battle, and then eventually decide how to move on. [Music] Now that Infernace, the Covenant, and the Commonwealth were off the map, there were talks of creating a new world government. But ultimately, it never really materialized, and all the remaining nations just agreed to do their own thing and have peace. In the corner of the crowded, island one had taken the brunt of the war. Crops trampled, the big tree scorched, the volcano ravaged. As a result, people across island one struggled after the war. I'm dead. Some of them joined cults while others moved to island 2 in search of a better life. Allesium was fine, though. Instead of going to war on day 10, the Nation of Peace had decided to hold a peace festival. And on their shore was something new. A bridge stemming all the way from Luminara. are near. [Music] And so everybody lived on in peace, including Saps, who at long last had returned to Island 2. It brings back memories. Still, the world wasn't totally conflict free. The cast coalition bakery was yet to be exposed for causing the death of Wood Daddy. And Night Arurus was still in hiding, yet to be found by Westel. It's a big world, so it's not a surprise that many stories like these may just never end. I think there's some beauty in that. So slowly lose control as motions on the floor. Yeah, we still have some work to do. We will catch that traitor. But tonight you can rest. You've made your emperor very proud. or do we jury? You have heard all of the evidence. If you find Thomas 5200 guilty of aiding with his reign of terror, jump now. Thomas, may you find mercy in the end. [Music] [Applause] When we first met, I ran away screaming from you because I thought you were going to blow up my nation and kill all my citizens. But after we talked a little bit for like 5 minutes, I realized you could blow up my nation and kill all my citizens. But that doesn't mean you will. Barbie, do you take Oenheimer to be your one and only canon? I do. Oenheimer, same thing. I do. Yeah. Now, at this time, Barbie and Oenheimer have requested that instead of rings, they will both exchange something slightly difference. If you would please turn your attention to the nuclear bomb that's behind us. 3 2 1 Do we all so slowly lose control as emotions on the flow, falling into the unknown? [Music] or do we all guard our small fragile heart [Music] as we softly break it apart. [Music] Afraid to give into the storm and open up our heart.
