In the year 2009, there had been at least one hundred people who had met the same end: being run over by a truck. Ten years later, those hundred returned as though nothing happened to them... At least, not to the naked eye.
For those hundred, though, things were extremely different. They had been whisked away into different worlds, each one unique to them. There, they fought against threats and cultivated their skills in order to save their world. They survived for ten years and then were brought back to their world with no explanation except for one word: "Fight."
However, this one word fell on deaf ears, the hundred more dedicated to returning to the life they once abandoned, some even believing it was an impossibility... Though while they were busy with that, tiny rifts had erupted, bringing forth monsters from those hundred worlds. Again, the word rang in those heroes' ears: "Fight."
But this time, it was more in detail. As these heroes had destroyed many deities and even became gods in of themselves, they had disrupted the natural order of the cosmos, and thus, caused the worlds to collide, with them being the sole cause of it all. This is explained by the very god that brought those hundred to the different worlds to begin with. He offers a solution:
Kill each other. Whoever is last standing fix the multiversal balance and reconstruct it to their liking. Due to the multiversal chaos, the cheat abilities that some of the heroes had ended up being lost, though all of them gained the ability to summon one companion, living or dead, to their aid a la Fate.
However, time is limited. The hundred have a fortnight to settle the battle before the rifts grow too large for Japan to contain and spill over to the rest of Earth, destroying it and making it a hellhole. And so, with the "rules" of this supposed survival game set, the hundred heroes turn Japan into their personal battleground. Thus begins...
The Isekai Battle Royale.
Of course, you may tweak the story to make elements click better, like limiting the number of people in the battle royale or even changing what's at stake (i.e. winner gets to be god, they get one wish or save their universe), but I figured I'd post this idea here for those to get inspired.
This, in of itself, is inspired by Gigguk.
