Black World (黒の世界 Kuro no Sekai) is one of the five possible futures in the story of Z/X -Zillions of enemy X-.

A future where the concept of death ran out of control. Death has been given more priority than anything else, and its inhabitants are on the verge of extinction as a result of them constantly killing each other.

State of Affairs[]

In the future where the economy of all nations on the Earth collapsed due to an artificially induced Great Depression and corporations took the places of nations as the leader of mankind, an organization called "the Knights of the Round Table (KORT)" that is comprised of seven corporate giants has become the de facto leader of mankind, moreover, the top brass of each of those corporations reigned like an absolute monarch.

The rule of the Knights of the Round Table was far better than people imagined. Borders are erased, war and famine are gone, and mankind obtained a lasting peace for the first time since their origin.

However, the peace didn't last for a long time.
What is the next thing desired by the people who have obtained all wealth and power in this world?
It is "perpetual youth and immortality"
The top brasses of the corporations who would eventually become the "Seven Deadly Sins" immersed themselves in the study of perpetual youth and immortality just like the ancient Chinese emperors.

One day, a former mercenary who would later be known as the "Black Man" and reigned at the top of the "Seven Deadly Sins" appeared at the gathering place of the top brasses of KORT while carrying seven "Masks". The man explained about the seven masks, all of which are wrapped in an ominous aura and found all across the world in places such as South Africa and Japan, and said, "If you killed someone while wearing the mask, you will be able to take the lifespan of that person".

The man then wore the mask in front of the bewildered top brasses of KORT—
It didn't take long until the world was plunged into a dark age.

"Domeki Foundation" and "Lloigor Dynamics" cooperated to reproduce masks based on the original seven, and distributed them to the family of the top brass or the executives of KORT. Although it was reproduced with such difficulties since it required materials that can only be found on the dark side of the moon, they were able to create about a thousand new masks in the end. Just like the original seven, the masks are separated into seven attributes according to their original materials, but strangely enough, all of the new masks each possess different abilities.

Thus, humans were divided into those who had the mask (= Diabolus) and those who didn't (= prey). Since having the mask was a privilege, the Diabolus began to act like medieval nobilities, and perceived the have-nots as beings that only existed to prolong their life.

People struggled for the mask.
Some for themselves. Some for their loved ones.
The mask of those who were felled was given to another.

When the owners of the mask began to kill each other to prolong their own lives, people who modified their bodies into a form suitable to take the life of the other also began to appear, and the Tortures and Predator were created as tools to aid them in combat.

Before one knows, the murder to prolong one's life transformed into a mere activity to use up one's eternal time.

On the other hand, the Seven Deadly Sins, who could be said as the main cause of everything, have finally reached the stage of perpetual your and immortality, and disappeared somewhere after their humanity was devoured by the masks. Together with the original, the most violent masks....

After the Black Point outbreak in the present, the people who called themselves Seven Deadly Sins are the ones who possessed the strongest power among their clans after the original masks in the possession of the original Seven Deadly Sins disappeared.
