Explanation:

Harrison declares himself emperor and tears off his handicap straps. This shows his desire to break free from the imposed limitations (laws in the story's context) and reveal his true, powerful self. He is not aiming to be like the Handicapper General, nor is there evidence of a focus on music/dancing or making people fear for their lives.

Answer:

He wants to rebel against the law and show off his true self
