However, his plans were foiled and he ended up in prison. A thousand years later, Edmond Dantes was sent to prison on false charges, and was kept there for twenty-five years. Eventually, after years of suffering, Edmond's hatred and insanity got Gankutsuou's attention, and after making a deal, Gankutsuou gave Edmond the power to exact revenge on his enemies while Gankutsuou gained Edmond's body, mind and soul. Ultimately, the two became partners-in-crime, working together to set the stage for Edmond, who was now the Count of Monte Cristo, to get revenge on his treacherous friends. Meanwhile, Gankutsuou had other plans in mind... Throughout the course of the story, Gankutsuou would try to surface within the Count, which would prompt the Count to use medicine to keep Gankutsuou from betraying him. Sometimes, the Count himself would address himself as Gankutsuou, perhaps indicating that the Count and Gankutsuou were becoming a singular mind. Gankutsuou would eventually crystalize the Count's heart, making him a much more immoral person and more susceptible to Gankutsuou's influences. During the battle between Fernand Mondego and the Count, Gankutsuou finally managed to take control of the Count's mind, making the Count no longer care about revenge and just give in to the corrupting force within himself. However, Albert de Morcerf, in an act of desperation, embraced the Count, exorcising Gankutsuou from the Count's body, which would eventually lead to the Count's demise. Gankutsuou then tried to destroy the basement of the Count's home in retaliation to this, but failed, as everyone but Fernand Mondego escaped alive. He then stated that he would always be with people as a black hole, no doubt of Gankutsuou's own creation, ravaged the garden that would be the Count's tomb.
