Summary

An ordinary chat between a diner and a waiter ends in slaughter when the Oggai storm in and cut the man down, branding him a ghoul, a scene repeated in crowded shops and across the city. Throughout Tokyo's wards, the Oggai and the wider CCG hunt down as many ghouls as they can, with Furuta presiding and sneering about the peace to come. Amid an attack, a lone ghoul named Kou is saved by Naki, who offers to lead him below.

The group descends into the 24th ward, where Shuu Tsukiyama receives them. Naki warns that the surface grows deadlier as investigators sharpen their tracking methods, and Tsukiyama shows Kou where he will shelter for now, saying the king is the ghouls' only hope. A dark figure then drops onto a crane above the abandoned zone, and Tsukiyama observes that the King has arrived.
