The on-screen instructions are clear - in that you must first restore your iPad before attempting to (re)activate your iPad:
This support page outlines the procedure to restore the iPad to Factory Settings:
Restore your iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings – Apple Support
To do so, you’ll need access to either a Windows PC (with iTunes for Windows installed) or a Mac (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of macOS).
Download and use iTunes for Windows – Apple Support
Update to the latest version of iTunes – Apple Support
Use of a PC or Mac computer is unavoidable. If you don’t have access to a suitable computer of your own, that of a helpful friend or family member will suffice. Alternatively, the technicians at the Genius Bar of your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) will be delighted to assist.
