Chapter 43: Love and Destruction

The final battle, if only there was a bit more time.

In the Hokkaido City Hall, in the far eastern district, General Sato Kozo was issuing orders for the deployment of the frontline.

The installation sites of the drones, the ambush points for the tanks, the positions of every frontline personnelevery single detail was personally arranged by him.

He had been busy for several hours, ensuring that everyone was in their designated places. Sato Kozo finally heaved a sigh of relief, then picked up a cup of cold tea and reclined on his chair, sipping slowly.

Now, all that was left was to observe Godzillas movements.

[Godzilla can sense human activities], he recalled while watching the satellite recordings of Godzillas actions after its landing, taken from the helicopter during his evacuation. Sato had a vague feeling about it.

Somehow, Godzilla could perceive them. This was evident in its previous engagements with the human forces.

Upon careful examination of the satellite footage, one could notice this fact.

After the first atomic breath attack, Godzilla immediately began targeting several frontline command centers with no potential for exposure.

Furthermore, the trajectory of its atomic breath was always the shortest straight line between its head and the frontline command centers hidden behind mountain ridges.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Every time Godzilla targeted human gathering points with its atomic breath, it seemed to be guided as if by divine intervention, perfectly aligning with the shortest path.

Considering that Godzilla could detect their evacuation from over a hundred kilometers away, Sato came to a definitive conclusion: Godzilla could directly pinpoint the locations and movements of humans!

Moreover, if the humans positions were within the range of its atomic breath, even in its concentrated form, Godzilla would always precisely and [directly] hit the areas where people were most densely packed.

This behavior was entirely different from its attacks on unmanned vehicles.

When dealing with tanks and other machinery, Godzilla merely covered them within the blast radius without aiming at them specifically, much like using a tank cannon capable of destroying buildings within a 20-meter radius to demolish a target.

When it came to tanks and similar objects, Godzilla only needed to fire the projectile within the 20-meter radius of the target.

However, when dealing with humans, Godzilla acted differently, always hitting the bulls-eye with its atomic breath.

This was Godzillas only weakness.

By exploiting this weakness properly, it might be possible to stop Godzilla even with their current weaponry.

It was because of this possibility that Sato decided to make this final stand.

The final battle in the Far East.

The battle that carried the hopes of tens of thousands.

Of course not; the history of ancient Titans hiding far preceded the birth of humans.

It couldnt be solely due to the activities of ancient humans either, as the Titans were only offered as sacrifices and left behind many relics in modern times.

Was it because of natural climate changes?

No, natural climate changes could not affect the activities of Titans. Moreover, it had been too long since that era, and any climate hindrances would have long vanished.

Then what was it?

At dawn, Godzilla pondered this question, and finally, it clicked.

So, thats it.

In the ancient era, after the fall of the heavenly bodies and the dispersal of the black clouds, the Titans engaged in a great war.

In that war, the Titans fought and battled each other, wreaking havoc on the land, sea, and sky.

Each Titan only cared about its own well-being and often clashed with other Titans.

Was it a few hundred times? A few thousand? Perhaps even tens of thousands? No, that underestimated the intensity of that battle.

It was a war that turned the entire planet into a scorching inferno, leading to the extinction of countless lives.

Though the intensity over a short period may not have been as strong as human nuclear wars, the Titans fought relentlessly, ultimately leaving the world in extreme heat.

Countless lives were extinguished, and the land became barren.

In such a situation, one Titan, who cherished other life forms, couldnt bear it any longer. It sought out its neighbor, the then-Godzilla, and together, they persuaded other Titans not to fight.

It was a long and arduous process.

However, in the end, under the jubilant chirping and the blue light in its mouth, everyone had to agree to its request. They would no longer devastate this world.

It loved this world. Whenever this world faced difficulties, it would be the first to step forward.

And this time, it was no exception.

In its natural memories, there was also that final wish, which did not involve destroying anyone.

Let this planet recover!

This was its wish, and today, the first step toward fulfilling it would be taken.

Godzilla was approaching Hokkaido!
