The Black Knights attack the tower and C.C returns Lelouches memories to him. He engages in another battle with Britannia to rescue Nunnally but fails. He finds Nunnally as the new viceroy and refuses to fight against her. He requests for the exile of Zoro in exchange for convincing one million Japanese citizens to become a part of the special administrative zone. On the ceremony day, all the citizens show up in Zero’s costume forcing Suzaku to grant exile to all of them. They return to the Chinese federation where Lelouch focuses on forming alliances with the rest of the powerful nations. During the battle of Tokyo, Prince Schneizel el Britannia turns the core team against Zero. With the help of Suzaku and C.C Lelouch kills the Britannian emperor and empress emerging as the new power of Britannia. He puts an end to the oppressive system. Nunnally is against him and Lelouch questions his determination for the plan. Nevertheless, he overturns all the opposition. He secretly asks Suzaku to take Zero’s disguise and kill him publicly. This would make Lelouch take all the resentment, hate and blame from the people which was needed to make them believe that they were finally free after the evil king’s death.

Lelouch Lamperouge Vs Goku: Who Is Better?
Lelouch is a smart, manipulative, ruthless, and very observant character. Goku proves to be exactly the polar opposite of Lelouch being free-spirited, pure of heart, extremely loyal and energetic. It is without a doubt that if they were to engage in a fist fight, Lelouch wouldn’t be able to survive it even in 100 years. He would be squashed like a grape by Goku’s bare punches. Whereas the outcome would differ to a great extent if their powers were to be allowed. For poor Goku, it would be cheating cause Lelouch’s Geass wouldn’t leave even a teensy bit of chance for Goku. Lelouch would instantly make eye contact and force Goku to defeat himself. The simple-minded boy will have no idea what happened. Poor Goku!
