He degenerated and became a leader of demons.
In ancient times, before humans appeared on Earth, demons already existed there.
The devil is everywhere.
There were no trees, flowers, insects, birds, or even rocks and streams...
Or rather, demons make up everything in this world.
A demon is a purely biological being.
They simply fought and devoured each other.
Trees devour rocks, streams engulf mountains.
This is natural selection, just Darwin's theory of evolution.
This is a simple world.
One day, a beautiful angel discovered Earth and came here.
"Look, what a beautiful planet!"
But the arrival of the angels was not welcomed by the demons.
The first angel landed on a branch.
The second angel landed under the rock.
The third angel landed in the flowerbed.
"Hello, life on this planet, civilization on this planet!"
That's how the angel greeted us.
"Hello, delicious angels!"
The devil's enthusiastic reply.
The first angel was eaten by the tree.
The second angel was eaten by the rock.
The third angel was eaten by the flowers.
Hello, delicious angels.
A large number of angels came to Earth, full of hope and dreams for the future, but they were all cruelly killed by demons and became their food.
So God became angry.
He sent powerful high-ranking angels to Earth to cleanse the ugly demons that had polluted the planet.
War is about to break out.
But the high-ranking angels are extremely powerful, and the weak demons have no power to resist them at all.
The earth was devastated by war.
The once beautiful mountains and lakes are now ruins.
Thus, Satan, one of God's right and left arms.
To protect this beautiful planet, Satan does not approve of God's cleansing of demons.
Satan believes that even if demons destroy the Earth's ecological environment, God should still approve of these demons.
These demons are weak and naive.
They live according to the natural evolution, and are not ugly creatures.
God should respect the devil.
Thus, Satan became the leader of the demons and began to lead them in a counterattack against the angels and even God.
But demons are undoubtedly weak in the face of powerful angels.
The demons led by Satan were defeated by the angels and sealed in another dimension—Hell.
Demons and Satan await their future awakening in Hell, ready to rebel against the gods once more.
—The Birth of Devilman.
Now, because the demons have been sealed in hell, humanity has once again become the master of the earth.
Humans have acquired intelligence through evolution.
Then, through wisdom, they developed their own civilization.
One brilliant civilization after another was established, and then they merged with each other to become modern human civilization.
Satan is very powerful; even though he is sealed in Hell, he can still see everything on Earth.
He also saw that human development was destroying the beautiful Earth.
In ancient times, during the feudal dynasties, people fought each other for land and interests.
War has engulfed one country after another.
However, these wars were all small-scale, only damaging some human buildings and not the Earth.
Therefore, Satan was not angry.
Then came modern times.
Humanity launched a world war.
World War I, World War II.
The two world wars affected almost every corner of the earth.
Rifles and cannons, airplanes and tanks.
Countless shells ripped the earth apart, one layer after another.
But this scene is not even as impressive as a casual, natural attack during the battle between demons and angels back then.
High-ranking angels possess the power to destroy mountains and rivers with a single blow.
Then... time moved on to the present day.
In just a few decades, human technology has developed at an astonishingly rapid pace.
Humans do not possess the power to move mountains and overturn seas, but through wisdom, they have begun to do so.
Large areas of mountains were moved to mine minerals.
To construct buildings, humans also build artificial islands in the sea.
Various kinds of sewage are also discharged into rivers and lakes.
The industrial sector emits black smoke day and night.
So Satan saw that the beautiful Earth was being destroyed by humankind!
That blue planet is being destroyed by humans!
Satan knew he could no longer wait; he needed to awaken immediately, destroy humanity, and protect the Earth.
Then they rebelled against the gods.
For the Earth! For the Earth!
The devil is about to return to Earth!
Then, a giant appeared, disrupting Satan's plans.
Originally, Satan needed to possess the bird and become one with this human to be resurrected.
But when the demons sent out attacked the birds, a giant appeared.
"Giants...are they the minions of God? Ah...it doesn't matter, they're all enemies."
In short, it was because of the appearance of the giants.
Satan can no longer directly send demons to Earth, because if demons did appear, they would probably be defeated by that giant.
Of course, Satan also believed that the giant could not be invincible, so he sent Amon, the hero among demons, to Earth.
However, an obstacle appeared once again.
Just when Amon was about to control the human named Fudo Akira, at the last moment, the human's will actually defeated Amon!
A human defeated the hero among demons!
Simply incredible!
Afterwards, some demons attempted to return to Earth, but they were either defeated by humans who had been transformed from giants, or defeated by humans themselves.
For a moment, Satan found himself at a disadvantage.
But... why is a demon a demon?
It is precisely because of the evil of these creatures.
Satan devised an even more despicable plan.
He saw that, under the giant's guidance, the humans of Earth now would not harm those demons who had gained demonic powers, and even trusted these demons implicitly.
If that's the case, then let more humans become demons.
Let all humans become demons!
The demons will return to Earth, but they will not actively take over the bodies. Instead, they will voluntarily relinquish their will and allow humans to wield the power of the demons.
And then...and then they can turn humans into demons.
Demons and humans are fused together.
If a human accepts fusion with a demon, they will become a demon-human and will be constantly influenced by the demon.
Then subtly change these humans, gradually turning them into demons... No, that's not right!
Humans themselves are the devil!
Humans who destroy the Earth are the real demons!
So, demon, go to Earth!
