On the argo.
"Yes, this is great… Ghidorah and Rodan are fighting each other!"
Mark Russell and the others cheered upon seeing the battle between the two Titans, and the unease on Serizawa Ichiro's face also faded a bit.
Although he knew very well that Rodan would likely not be able to defeat Ghidorah… after all, even Godzilla was no match for that guy.
But at least Rodan could be eliminated by Ghidorah, which would also thwart a part of Emma Russell's plan.
This would buy them a little more time to react.
"Colonel Foster, Admiral William Stenz's communication…"
The communication signal connected, and an old man in a navy uniform with short hair appeared on the large screen, immediately giving an order without preamble:
"Colonel Foster, Dr. Serizawa, I order you to immediately disengage from combat and withdraw to a safe distance of at least 5 miles."
"Wait a moment, Admiral, I don't quite understand why we need to do that?"
Serizawa Ichiro asked, looking bewildered, but before he could finish, the other party directly provided the answer.
"Dr. Serizawa, after the Titan Behemoth appeared, our Navy has actually been developing a new type of weapon—the Oxygen Destroyer!"
"It's a special bomb that combines powerful destructive force with the ability to destroy oxygen…"
"Theoretically, it can eliminate all life within a 3.2-kilometer radius. If we're lucky enough, it should be able to kill these two behemoths directly, and then our nightmare will be over!"
The principle of the Oxygen Destroyer is to use a destructive electromagnetic reaction that instantly destroys oxygen atoms in water, forcibly splitting them into liquid, and liquefying the oxygen within all living organisms in the attack range.
So, theoretically, just a small one could kill all aquatic life within its attack range.
However, the Oxygen Destroyer is currently in the experimental stage, and it has never been live-tested on a Titan Behemoth before.
And Admiral William Stenz had not originally intended to bring out his ultimate weapon so early.
But this time, he felt threatened by General Ross, so out of helplessness, he could only bite the bullet and give it a try.
As for whether it would succeed in the end… only God knows!
Serizawa Ichiro quickly advised, "General, we have successfully controlled the situation… Uh, I mean, we've somewhat controlled it. Now we just need to wait for Godzilla to arrive…"
"Sorry, Dr., you've run out of chances!"
Admiral William Stenz completely ignored Serizawa Ichiro's dissuasion, thinking, 'I gave you enough chances before, but you didn't seize them, did you?'
'I can't let Thaddeus Ross make fun of me just to save your face, can I?'
"Dr. Serizawa, the missile has been launched and is expected to arrive in 5 minutes!"
With that, he directly cut off the communication, leaving Serizawa Ichiro and the others, looking as if they had lost their parents, staring blankly at the dark large screen.
…
At this moment, Ghidorah and Rodan in the sky had already decided the victor.
Boom—!!!
The middle head of Ghidorah suddenly opened its massive maw and fired a golden Gravitational Ray from its mouth, carrying an unparalleled destructive force, which heavily struck Rodan's chest.
Rodan let out a painful cry, and its massive body plummeted into the sea below like a falling meteor.
The sea surface instantly erupted into a water column nearly a hundred meters high.
Roar—
Ghidorah let out a victorious roar, and in the evil eyes of its middle head, a hint of human-like pride and dominance was revealed.
However, it quickly fixated on the argo, which was flying at a low altitude over the sea, using it to avoid the storm above.
Then, it flapped its gigantic wings and pursued the argo.
"Damn it, Zero Monster is chasing us!"
The staff in the Command Center were almost scared out of their wits upon seeing this scene.
Colonel Foster, seeing this, ordered full speed ahead while reassuring everyone, "Don't panic, everyone. The argo can reach Mach 1.1 at full speed. Theoretically, Zero Monster shouldn't be able to catch us, right?!"
However, Serizawa Ichiro and the other Monarch Organization members were not concerned about their own safety at the moment, but were silently praying that Godzilla would not arrive at this time!
However…
Facts proved that even the most devout prayers were utterly useless!
Just as Ghidorah realized the argo was flying faster and faster and was about to hit it with a Gravitational Ray, a gigantic figure suddenly shot out from beneath the sea, biting onto its leftmost head and, using the momentum of the impact, directly dragged Ghidorah's massive body into the water.
That's right, that man… oh no, that beast is back!
Rumble—
Accompanying the second battle between the two Monster Kings, the entire sea area was instantly churned as if boiling, the sea level constantly rising and falling violently, with two deafening roars occasionally coming from beneath the surface, only to quickly cease.
Despite Godzilla's enormous size, it displayed far more agile movement in the water than on land, as if the ocean was its true domain.
Ghidorah, on the other hand, was not adept at water combat and had been in a passive, defensive state since being dragged underwater.
Even its ultimate move, the Gravitational Ray, could not be used normally.
Its massive wings struggled to flap in the water, seemingly wanting to break free from Godzilla's hold and return to the air, but the immense resistance of the seawater rendered its giant wings powerless.
So, its three heads desperately tried to break the surface, even completely disregarding Godzilla's repeated bites.
However, how could Godzilla, experienced in battle, easily let go?
Strike while the iron's hot!
The previous defeat in Antarctica had left him furious.
Godzilla used its two short claws to firmly clamp down on Ghidorah's leftmost head, then bit into its neck and began to tear vigorously back and forth. After a few tugs, there was a "crack," and that head, along with a section of its neck, was torn off.
Roar—
Godzilla raised its head high out of the water, holding the severed head in its mouth, and let out an excited roar. But just as it was about to repeat the process and tear off Ghidorah's remaining two heads, a missile trailing a long tail flame suddenly descended from the sky.
It was the Military's Oxygen Destroyer!
Boom—Rumble—!!!
The moment the Oxygen Destroyer exploded, the entire sea area within a 3.2-kilometer radius was instantly enveloped in a strong green light.
Immediately after, like a nuclear bomb explosion, a dazzling light burst forth, and a grayish-green mushroom cloud rose above the sea surface. A large amount of seawater was blasted into the sky, then fell like heavy rain…
The sea quickly returned to calm, but the figures of the two Monster Kings were nowhere to be seen.
The area where they had just fought was already covered with dense fish carcasses on the surface, and countless other marine creature carcasses below.
They had all died from lack of oxygen!
…
Bermuda Triangle.
Outpost 54 · Castle Bravo.
"Yes!"
"Congratulations, General, the Oxygen Destroyer experiment was a success!"
In the operations Command Center, Admiral William Stenz, who had arrived there at some unknown time, and his trusted subordinates, saw this scene on the satellite monitoring screen, and their previously tense faces immediately broke into smiles of relief.
It must be said that ordering the use of the Oxygen Destroyer missile was an extremely risky move.
Because if it failed, he would have no more trump cards left to turn the tide.
But thankfully, this time, he seemed to have gambled correctly?
Moreover, since the Oxygen Destroyer was powerful enough to kill Monster Kings like Godzilla and Zero Monster, then the other Titan Behemoths were even less to be feared.
"Heh heh, Thaddeus Ross, still trying to meddle in my jurisdiction? Let's see how you'll contend with me this time?"
Admiral William Stenz, convinced of his victory, triumphantly picked up his wine glass and clinked it towards General Ross, who sat silently in a corner opposite him.
This gesture was an unmistakable provocation.
The group of staff in the operations Command Center, who enjoyed watching drama, also cast curious glances at General Ross.
They wanted to see how this 'three-star general,' who had recently been highly favored within the Department of Defense, would respond to the 'four-star general' who outranked him!
However, facing the provocation, General Ross remained as if nothing had happened, a calm and collected smile still gracing his face.
This is just the beginning, where's the rush?!
"Tsk, turns out he's a coward?!"
Unable to witness the anticipated exasperation, Admiral William Stenz immediately withdrew his gaze with a sneer. But just as he was about to order submarines and large tugboats to salvage the bodies of Godzilla and Zero Monster from the deep sea, an anomaly suddenly occurred.
Boom—!!!
On the monitoring screen, the sea surface, which had just returned to calm, suddenly erupted with a massive water column, while a huge figure rapidly shot out from beneath the water.
It was none other than Ghidorah, who had just had one of its heads torn off by Godzilla!
Roar—
Ghidorah lowered its long necks, its two heads staring intently at a spot beneath the water, letting out a triumphant roar.
It was as if saying,'See, this is what happens when you protect those ants!'
Ghidorah flapped its giant wings and shot up to an altitude of ten thousand meters like an arrow released from a bow, then, with an accelerated dive, landed directly on Mara Island… on the volcano where Rodan had previously appeared.
Ghidorah itself possesses extremely powerful regenerative abilities. The head that was torn off by Godzilla earlier quickly regrew a brand new head from the severed neck, with flesh growing wildly!
Roar—
Ghidorah spread its wings, its three heads held high, letting out victorious roars. A forming storm and golden lightning began to intertwine around its body.
But just as Ghidorah was basking in its triumph, a helicopter quietly approached from behind him.
The rear gate of the cabin slowly opened, revealing several figures on the internal deck, with Emma Russell, holding the Magic Sound · Oca Device, standing at the forefront.
"Dr., you can begin your performance!" Allen Jonah urged, both nervous and excited.
"Mom, don't."
At this moment, Madison suddenly rushed out from behind and pleaded, "Please, don't do that. Zero Monster just killed Godzilla; it won't restore ecological balance. It will only keep creating slaughter… This isn't coexistence; this is extinction. Once you open Pandora's Box, it will ultimately destroy Earth!"
However, this time, Allen Jonah was prepared. Before she could rush closer, she was directly stopped by two burly men.
"No, humans killed Godzilla!"
Emma Russell feigned an expression of heartbreaking agony, "Madison, you saw it too, didn't you? They are using the Monarch Organization to kill the behemoths, to kill those Gods who have protected Earth for hundreds of millions of years, so I am doing this out of necessity!"
"You're lying."
Madison couldn't help but shed tears, saying with immense disappointment, "Mom, you're not doing this to save Earth, nor to save humanity. You… you're a demon!"
Slap—
Emma Russell, unable to bear it any longer, raised her hand and slapped her daughter. Unexpectedly, under the influence of Slaanesh Psionic Energy, the latter immediately fell into a state of extreme grief and indignation.
She forcefully broke free from the control of two mercenaries who far surpassed her in both physique and strength, and then leaped off the deck…
"No, Madison!!!"
Emma Russell, regaining her senses, quickly rushed to the edge of the deck, but her daughter's figure was nowhere to be seen below.
Grief, regret, self-blame, despair… But the next second, all those emotions welling up in her heart were swept away, replaced by an unspeakable ecstasy.
She didn't know if it was because this "sacrifice" involved a loved one.
The intense euphoria Emma Russell felt was far clearer and stronger than any previous time!
She even felt as if her soul would be swallowed and melted by such extreme pleasure…
And under the stimulation of this extreme euphoria, she once again "awakened" the special power to "hear the voice of all things"… and this power, unlike before, did not gradually fade after appearing!
Emma Russell stared blankly at her hands. Although tears still flowed uncontrollably, there was not a trace of sadness in her heart.
"Then let there be destruction… That God was right, only in Death can one harvest ultimate ecstasy!!!"
Emma Russell's face showed a strange expression of 'pain and pleasure,' and from a perspective invisible to ordinary people, a purple rune symbolizing Slaanesh's Blessing glowed brightly on her forehead.
