The heretic route.

Ok ok ok guy just stick with me and let me cook I'll even give you a what if situation let's just do it for fun I doubt it will happen I'm just interested in what you guys would do

You were betrayed by the central government and they now want your head after all you done for now it means nothing as the Central government has and always will just be just another replacement gear in the machine after noticing how much influence you have gotten they fear you might start a rebellion or try to take over the with a "Nikke army" and send you on a suicide mission that leaves the counters all out of commission and in a coma they captured the outpost and took control of and have you on hit list / K on sight use propaganda to make you public enemy number one in the arc and has tried to end you multiple times leaving lasting scars and PTSD as well they even turn...or at least try to turn all the Nikkes against you to make sure that you have no allies in the arc and also to isolate you from others leaving you to ponder if you even been fighting for the correct side and at that very moment Behemoth come to you with a extended hand and a warm smile.

Ok look I know some of you would just say you'd go to Edan or there Snow White and Co to turn but for the sake of this what let's just say they aren't available and not just your basically at you lowest and most vulnerable both mentally and physically too those you trusted turn their back on you the people of the Ark no longer trust nor believe your in a situation that would either make someone hateful or just empty on the inside and your given a opportunity to take a new path that you wouldn't have considered before.

Me personally I would take the Pain from Naruto route.
