Spoiler included | Dare to imagine, if Ellen successfully implements Di Ming, will Eldia have a better future?

We always see people saying that they support Di Ming, then we might as well imagine that if the Survey Corps failed to stop the Di Ming, would the Eldians of Parady Island live a fairy-tale happy life?

I imagined it and came to the conclusion - no, the islanders will fall into a new wave of "enslavement" no less cruel than the previous ones.

I'll explain my reasons below, and you're welcome to imagine other possibilities.

The turning point of not being able to stop the sound of the earth may have occurred at the moment when Flock shot the Salvation Squad ship, if he had not been stopped by the sniper god Gabi, if she and Falke had been killed by the angry jerk long after Gabby shot Sasha. The teenager dropped the spaceship... In short, a small change in the previous plot may lead to a completely different result. If the ship is hit, I believe that the Salvation Squad will still not give up, but whether they can get out of Parady Island will be a problem. Their ending is likely to be strangled one by one by the reinforcements sent by Ye.

Scarred and narrowly escaped Salvation Squad

So Allen traveled completely unimpeded. When he was walking around the world with giants, everything that happened on the island was beyond his control. You know, Ellen did not manipulate the Eldians, but gave them full freedom. Maybe he didn't want to do it, maybe it was because he didn't have the ability to order the ancestor to do this and that - the earth cry was not so much initiated by Aaron, but rather caused by the awakening of the ancestor's own will. And more importantly, when Aaron chose Diming, it meant the beginning of his self-exile - it was almost impossible for him to return to the island easily, and it was unlikely that he would still have the power to dominate after Diming. It is a question of whether he can even restore his human form. After the local narration ended, Allen could only choose to let countless super giants stay on the mainland outside the island and re-seal them in some way (perhaps by forming a wall).

And Flock obviously knew this very well. As soon as Allen started to cry, he immediately claimed to be the ruler of the island, claiming that he was the spokesperson of Yeager's spirit. The biggest problem with Flock's character is that he is very ambitious and has a very perverted desire for power. His confrontation with the old members of the Survey Corps may seem passive, but it is actually doomed. He wants to be the rightful ruler, and sooner or later he will get rid of all these old guys. At this point, no matter what the old members of the Survey Corps do—convert to the Ye faction, be an ostrich, or choose to confront Alan, they will inevitably become enemies with the Ye faction and fall into a situation of killing each other.

And once the Survey Corps chose to confront Allen, Flock's behavior of "cleaning up the old players" became more natural and reasonable. It is conceivable that after eliminating the traitors (old members of the Survey Corps, Jiks, Marai warriors, prisoners, and the diplomatic team led by Ms. Kiyomi), General Ye will carry out further cleansing on the island. The first person to be sacrificed should be the queen. Her children may survive, but they will definitely be controlled and placed under house arrest by General Ye. Given that the queen has a certain prestige, the young general Ye will most likely take an assassination to get rid of her, and then frame the blame on the person he wants to clean, and further mobilize the masses to find out those who have opinions on Diming (there may be relatives in Diming) were killed in the middle of the 1990s), not close to the bad elements under the leadership of the spirit of Yeager. Could one question their need to extend the killing further? The answer is, of course, it is very necessary. I believe everyone who understands the line of struggle will understand.

Instructor Keith understands

At the same time, Flock will lead the young general Ye to intensively collect the remaining power of the six giants. If they could not capture Armin and others in the previous battle with the Survey Corps, but had to kill them, it would mean that they would have to find a successor among the newborns of Eldia. In this case, all the Eldians will once again become unstable factors in the eyes of the ruler who "hide their power privately", and they must be strictly controlled. In fact, Flockbar had to rebuild the three walls to facilitate management. Since he can't do this, he will strictly control the people of the island of Pao to leave the island of Pao. For this reason, he will not hesitate to destroy the military port, obliterate the technological progress brought by the outside world to the island of Pao, and let the island of Pao return to the medieval appearance.

This may be what Ms. Kiyomi said, Earth Ming is only shrinking the world, the disputes between human beings will continue, and the tragedy of Eldia will not stop because of this. Flock is clearly aware of this, and has long prepared for a long fight for it. The moment he shot the Salvation Squad ship, all he was thinking was "It was me who saved Eldia!" That's right, not Alan, not anyone, but himself. There is no doubt that if Flock succeeds, he will make himself a human god in the name of Yeager, and let the Ai follow him unconditionally. And even if there is no Flock, or if Flock dies, similar characters will definitely be born in the Yepai. The demise of the royal family makes the fate of the Ai people even more unpredictable, and Eldia may once again fall into the state of the giant war a hundred years ago.

This is probably why the old characters, including Instructor Keith, are doing their best to stop the Yeager faction. They understand that the Ai must be prevented from going mad and destroyed, and that saving the outsiders is actually saving themselves.

The above is my speculation about what will happen if Diming succeeds.
