When the new Training Corps were hiding, a Titan broke through a wall and was about to eat Surma.

"Help me!" Surma cried, and before he is about to be eaten, Levi appeared and slashed through the Titan with quick speed.

"Oi! Brats, we didn't teach you to stand there and piss yourselves when you face a titan." Levi said with a cold tone.

Hange also arrived late and she said, "As the Commander of the Scouts, I order you to put the ODM gear on! We still have some old models lying around! After that, come with me! If any of you want to survive this, do as I say!"

The new training Corps nodded as they all put on their gear while joining Levi and Hange. At the same time, Mikasa and the other members were killing the Titans on sight. 

"Anybody that's still alive! Gather up onto the top floor of the fortress!" Jean yelled. "We'll get the Titans together and kill 'em all at once! Bring all the Thunder Spears you can carry! We'll take care of the rest!"

As for Zeke and the others who didn't learn to use the Thunder Spears or ODM gear, they are using the Anti-Titan rifles and killing the Titans. Zeke yells, "Don't let any of these Titans run away! If you feel sorry for your Titanized comrades, then take a stand and end their suffering!"

Annie, Colt, and Gloria are also in their Titan forms as they try to kill some of the Titans in sight, Floch and Louise are doing the same thing in their Titan forms.

As for the other Titan Shifters, they were killing the other Titans using Thunder Spears. Armin noticed Pyxis' titan, and he muttered, "Commander, you guided us as far as you possibly could."

He threw the Thunder Spear at his neck and said, "Rest in peace."

After a lot more killing, the pure Titans were no more, and the remaining scouts were standing on top of the castle.

"The fires have died down." Jean said. "All the Marleyan soldiers are dead and the pure Titans have been wiped out. We should be safe for now."

As they continue to watch the marching Titans. Gloria said, "There is still the Rumbling problem... we still needed to gather the seven keys."

Colt asked, "Do you think our homeland is done for?"

Everyone frowned, and Louise asked, "Where were Sasha, Mikasa, and the others?"

Mikasa, Armin, Annie, and Sasha were finding Sasha's family, and once they managed to find them, they were surprised to see Gabi with them.

"It's you... What are you doing here?" Armin gasped.

"I don't want to fight you anymore. You have to believe me!" Gabi said. "Where were Falco, Colt, and Zeke?"

"They were not here, we're only here because we were making sure that my family was safe." Sasha said. 

Just then, Gabi kneeled down and muttered, "I'm so sorry. But can you please talk to Eren? Does he really have to kill everybody outside the island? He doesn't have to do that! Why can't he just attack military bases instead of killing everyone? He even took away all the Titan power from Marley! He could do anything!"

Annie heard it and asked, "Where is Reiner right now?"

"What does that matter? He's too injured to move!" Gabi said. 

Mikasa sighed and said, "It's true that three years ago, Eren told us the plan of killing everybody outside the island, and of course, none of us agree with the idea. And that's why he made a vow for us to follow if we wanted to avoid the Rumbling. The moment his head was off his body, that was the time when the Rumbling started."

Gabi widened her eyes in horror. "I... It's my fault again... I shot his head off... that means... I was the one who started the Rumbling..."

Everyone in the room widened their eyes, Gabi continued to cry, "My family... they are going to die because of me!"

In Trost, the Titans were still marching, and some of the Military Police that didn't drink the wine were finding survivors. "Over here! I needed a hand!"

Hitch and the others were bringing an old lady from the rubble, she said, "It's all right. Everything's gonna be okay now."

After bringing the survivors to the campsite, some of the people were talking. "The wall Titans are all marching toward the mainland together." "I'm sure he didn't mean to attack us, but still..." "But what was it? That strange dream we saw..."

The lady that Hitch was helping muttered, "My house... The king destroyed our houses..."

"So what if there were a few sacrifices?" Another pedestrian said.

"Shut up! How dare you? This man lost his son!" "He got crushed by the wall!" "No, our king killed him!"

"Exactly. Our king Eren Yeager killed his own people. But if he hadn't woken the wall Titans, every Eldian on this island, including all of you, have been killed by those outsiders! It wouldn't just be his son that was dead, even all of you would've been dead!"

"Their noble sacrifices brought the survival of the Eldian Empire!" "We've won!" "There's no victory without sacrifice! They died so we could live!"

"Dedicate your hearts!" "Dedicate your hearts!"

A military police member turned to Hitch, who said, "This is bad. If they're already this agitated, the civilians might turn on each other."

"We'll need to prepare some equipment." Another Military Police member said.

Then they all head outside while using carriages, Hitch yelled, "Load this thing up with all the riot gear it can hold!"

Pieck was now at the house along with his father, who was talking with Annie and Falco's parents. Falco's father said, "The Rumbling has started. I guess we were lucky to avoid that fate by staying on this island..."

"But still, all the other houses, wives, in-laws, and everything else outside this devil island were going to be crushed flat." Mr. Leonhart sighed, "But then again, this wasn't really the devil island that we all thought about. Back in Liberio, we suffered because of how the people treated us with our blood... but now we were staying here, as free as we could get, and we wouldn't need to worry about people badmouthing us."

Pieck frowned and said, "But still, I can't give up saving my hometown." She packed her stuff and her father asked, "Where are you going?"

"Commander Magath must have been somewhere around here, I'm going to find him and fulfill my last duty as a Warrior." Pieck said as she rushed off.

Mr. Finger tried to stop her, but Mr. Leonhart said, "Let her be. All of us also didn't want to see our homeland to be destroyed."

Back with Hange and Levi, they managed to meet up with all the other Titan shifters. But when Armin and the others came, they were surprised to see Gabi with them. Connie asked, "What is she doing here?"

"She didn't want to fight anymore. She was the one who shot Eren's head off, and she wanted to fix her mistake by helping us stop the Rumbling."

"And why should we let her in? She had hurt our king multiple times?" Before Floch could continue, Zeke stopped him and said, "Is that true, Gabi?"

"Everyone... I'm really sorry. I treated all of you as devils... and because of that, my rash decisions led me to my home's destruction. I wanted to save my homeland, my family, and those who I cared about that still lived on the other side of the sea..." Gabi said.

"If we continue to hate each other, then we're still repeating our two-thousand-year history of fighting." Hange said. "But she was still a kid, despite, having the Warrior training..."

"If I have to say, Gabi's skills could have been on par with us." Colt said, "It would be better if we have her help."

Then the others decided to let her help, and they all enter the Reiss farm. Historia was standing in front of them and she said, "You guys have come."

"How's Eren?" Mikasa asked.

Historia brought them upstairs to the room, they saw a coffin with yellow outlines. Inside the coffin was Eren Yeager, whose eyes were closed and the locks were visible as they seemed.

"To think Eren has become this state..." Zeke frowned as everyone stared at the coffin. 

"That's why we need the keys as soon as possible. Eren could stop the Rumbling, but with this state, he could do nothing to stop." Hange said. "So you found where the keys were located?"

Armin said, "I think I could see a vision of a key near the river that was made of fire... it was coming out from a mountain..."

"That is called a volcano if you don't know, and the river made of fire must have been lava." Onyankopon said. "But there were a lot of Volcanos outside of the island... it might be hard to find the specific one."

"Mine is in a cave with strong winds." Colt said. "And there was some bamboo surrounding them."

"Mine is a pyramid, but filled with traps." Gloria said.

"What is a pyramid?" Connie asked.

"They are triangular structures made of sand, they were usually seen in the Mid-eastern areas." Yelena replied.

"Mine is located on an island, but much smaller than Paradis." Sasha said.

"Great, another unspecific location... there were too many islands outside of Paradis." Jean muttered.

"Mine is located in an abandoned castle, it was filled with vegetarians like Utgard Castle." Louise said. "But I've never seen that kind of structure before... sorry."

"I saw nothing but whiteness, there was some rainbow-colored sky and some birds that walk..." Floch said.

"Wait, are you talking about Antarctica? The whiteness was probably because of ice, and that was the coldest place on earth..." Gloria gasped.

"Just great... and what about the last one? Annie?" Armin asked.

Annie said, "I saw a forest that kept raining, there were all kinds of animals and some sort of tribes."

"Okay... at least we knew where they might be located. But we can't do this by ourselves. We will need help, even from our enemies." Hange said.

"Are you sure they are willing to help us? To them, we were the devils that need to be eliminated!" Louise asked.

"Yeah, you're right about that, but we have no other choice. We can't let Eren die." Historia said, "Gabi, since you're willing to help us, would you be our key to ask help from the outside world?"

"Me? But..." Gabi was shocked that the queen would ask her such a thing.

"If you want to save your homeland, your family, and your friends, this is the only way to do this."

"I'll try." Gabi said, and the others nodded. Historia turned to Eren and said, "Eren... we would definitely save you."

Here is a new chapter, and as you can see, Pyxis and the others who turned into Titans are dead, and now they have visions of where the keys might be. I hope you like this chapter.
