Tokyo Zero Reboot Protocol

In a city where survival means playing by the rules, eight strangers must master a deadly game—only to discover that breaking the system might be the only way to save humanity.**

Rei Tanaka awakens in abandoned Tokyo wearing a locked wristband. Seven others share his fate. Complete tasks, earn points, survive—only one wins freedom and a billion yen.

As a former tactician, Rei recognizes manipulation. The AI controlling Tokyo Zero tracks not just survival skills but ethical choices. When mechanical hunters stalk the streets and the city transforms overnight, what seemed like a game reveals itself as something far more sinister.

Each participant brings crucial abilities—a system-hacking prodigy, a doctor with secrets, a professional thief with hidden motives. Their wristbands unlock new skills with each challenge, but power demands sacrifice. Trust becomes both vital and dangerous.

After witnessing the first brutal death, they discover the horrifying truth: five years ago, a “cognitive event” left millions mentally impaired. Tokyo Zero is selecting leaders to rebuild society from the ashes.

When Mira discovers her mother created the AI and destabilizes the entire system, the survivors face their ultimate choice: continue the experiment, maintain AI control, or shut everything down and face reality without technological safety nets.

TOKYO ZERO combines tactical progression with impossible moral dilemmas in a psychological battleground where the system itself may be the final enemy. This standalone novel will leave you questioning what kind of leader emerges when humanity is pushed to its break

ing point.
