The place she was fleeing to in panic was another stretch of sea.
Shangang, with half her head gone yet still maintaining her enormous body, showed no desire to fight at all!
The moment she met Godzilla, she had completely lost any thought of fighting and wanted only to run!
Four years ago, she had been injured even more severely than she was now, yet she had still held on until the very end before fleeing.
Perhaps back then, she still had the dignity of a King of Monsters and was unwilling to be defeated by a few machines.
But now, after merely meeting Godzilla for the first time and experiencing a blast of breath to the face, she no longer had even a shred of dignity left to speak of.
Running away was shameful, but useful.
Life was important.
"Isn't the head a fatal weak point?"
Muttering to himself, Beast King Godzilla naturally could not just stand there and watch Shangang escape.
The head might not be a weak point, but that did not mean she had no weak points.
Perhaps her brain had been moved elsewhere, and the place where her head was now was filled with nothing but wood shavings.
For a monster with such a massive body, it was perfectly normal for several heads to control different parts of it.
"If I can't tell where the weak point is, then I'll tear everything apart!"
"Even if you have incredible regeneration, I'd like to see whether you can reconnect every piece and heal after being torn completely to shreds!"
With rage that had built up for who knew how long in his heart—whether it had accumulated recently or been left behind by the original body over the past four years—
Today, he would burn it all clean in one blaze and tear his enemy into a thousand pieces!
Roar!
After a roar that sounded like both a whale's long cry and a beast's bellow, Godzilla spread his sturdy, muscular legs. He covered several hundred meters in two or three strides, then charged straight at Shangang!
A turn, and his enormous tail swept out, knocking Shangang off balance!
Shangang's shell, rated Armor 10 by the Mecha Base and said to be nearly indestructible by human means, was instantly smashed with a deep dent. Blue-green blood began to seep out continuously.
While Shangang staggered from the tail strike, Godzilla seized the chance and stretched out his tiny little arms.
He grabbed the strongest of Shangang's six legs, her left forelimb, and held on without letting go.
Watching this utterly unsporting scene, Shangang only wanted to dodge aside and call a timeout, but she could not.
The Beast King had come prepared. Now that he had her, how could he possibly make peace with Shangang?
With a burst of strength, he twisted and shattered the bones in Shangang's forelimb. Then he exerted himself again and twisted it a full 360 degrees!
Then, with another wrench and another twist, like twisting a pretzel, he tore that forelimb right off Shangang's body!
This time, not only the people of the Philippines who had never seen such a thing before, but even those on Sakurajima and back home who had witnessed it all rose to their feet in stunned silence!
They knew the Beast King was strong and that combat power could not be measured by height.
But they had never imagined the gap between the two sides had become this vast!
Thinking about it carefully, it made sense. The Beast King's previous enemies—
Scythe Head, Serpent King, Thunder Beast, Otter Bull, and so on—might have looked weak, like they had all been utterly crushed by the Beast King.
But they only looked weak in the Beast King's hands, like complete trash.
And King of Monsters Shangang's performance was no different from those earlier monsters.
There simply had not been any comparison before. Now, there was!
Before the Beast King, they were all about the same—useless!
Watching the Beast King use both hands to wrench off Shangang's primary close-combat forelimbs, everyone who saw the scene was speechless for a long time.
If it had been another part of her body, one could say the quality was poor and it had been torn off.
But those thick forelimbs were Shangang's main weapons in close combat. Back then, they had smashed through the shells of three mechas!
Now, they were like toys...
A more fitting description would be that they were like crayfish claws. Two thick, powerful forelimbs protected by armor had been torn off by the Beast King with sheer brute force!

Thoughts on Going Premium
Barring any surprises, it should go premium tomorrow at noon. It should...
The reason I am using such a weak tone is that while I have not run into many surprises, I have run into some. Since then, I have rarely made promises.
Of course, extra chapters are an exception.
Since this book began, I have guaranteed three updates a day during the public period. After it goes premium, the first month will still have a guaranteed three updates a day.
If something comes up, it may become two updates, but I will definitely tell everyone and ask for leave. Afterward, I will work hard to make up for the missed chapters.
Then, when it goes premium tomorrow, there will be a guaranteed six updates.
Thanks to Sister Nan Xi for supporting me all the way. Otherwise, this newbie really would have been completely clueless about everything. At the same time, I hope I do not wake up one day to find myself being made into soup.
Also, while writing the previous chapter, I kept thinking of a joke I wanted to add in, but it really did not fit. So I will put it here as a little skit. I hope everyone likes it.
A friend just asked me what had happened to Teacher Shangang. I said, "What happened?" Then he sent me a few screenshots.
I took a look. Oh, so it was the Beast King coming to pick a fight with me.
I saw it and immediately stood up. Very fast, you know? He came right at me with an acid breath, then blew my head off and ran.
When I looked again, the Beast King had come prepared.
According to traditional dueling rules, you stop when you have made your point. I had already admitted defeat and run away. Ah, but at that moment, I got careless. I did not dodge, and he shattered my arm!
I said, "Stop! Stop! Young beast, you have no martial ethics. You tricked an old, fat beast like me. Is that good? That is not good."
I got careless and did not dodge. His tail whip dazed me for a moment, but that was fine.
I said, "Young beast, you have no martial ethics. You do not understand." He said, "Sorry, Teacher Shangang. I do not understand. I just threw a casual punch. I did not even use any strength."
Later, he said he had killed quite a few other monsters. Clearly, he had come prepared. This young beast had no martial ethics. He came to deceive and ambush an old, fat beast like me. Is that good?
That is not good. I advise this young beast to mind his own tail, reflect properly, and not make such petty mistakes or clever little tricks again. Monsters should value peace and practice martial ethics. Do not launch sneak attacks. Thank you, friends!
060. Natural Ecology Protector 1
Hatred and rage had been perfectly vented. At this moment, the lingering obsession from the past had finally been completely resolved!
After Beast King Godzilla tore off Shangang's massive forelimbs as though ripping off crayfish claws, this enormous King of Monsters let out a sky-piercing wail.
She knew pain too!
But she did not know how many humans had spent these past few years living in pain because of her existence, both physically and emotionally.
The souls of those who had died from pollution after Malaysia was destroyed might have been watching this scene and applauding!
Godzilla was not thinking about any of that right now.
He had only one thought:
Tear!
Tear!
Keep fucking tearing!
The huge, powerful left forelimb had been torn off and twisted apart. There was still the right one!
After tearing off the two forelimbs that posed the greatest close-combat threat, there were still the two legs in the middle. After those were torn off, there were still the two hind legs!
One by one, in that order, the Beast King used his tiny little arms, which looked somewhat ridiculous, to tear them completely off!
At this moment, those little arms, drenched in endless blue-green poisonous blood, no longer looked amusing or ridiculous in the slightest.
All that remained was awe-inspiring dominance and unbearable pressure!
This was the ruler of the Titan Beasts!
This was Godzilla's answer to monster invaders!
After ripping off the two forelimbs and four legs as if snapping off lobster legs, Godzilla still did not stop.
Looking at Shangang's bloated body, especially her back covered in poisonous flesh lumps, he felt even more nauseated.
He absolutely did not want to touch that venomous back, which looked like rotten meat.
So, if he wanted to truly kill this super-tank of flesh with absurdly thick blood, he had no choice but to use some rather brutal methods.
Godzilla's tiny little arms lifted up the half of Shangang's head that had been blasted apart.
Under Shangang's terrified gaze, the Beast King's majestic head moved close.
From afar, if one described the scene in gentle words alone, it might have seemed incredibly tender.
Godzilla, King of Titan Beasts, held King of Monsters Shangang's face. The two... the two beasts looked into each other's eyes, gazing deeply at one another.
According to the usual romance novel routine, the Beast King should have kissed her right then... and he really did!
Bzzzz—
With the two colossal beasts extremely close together, a charging sound rang out. Beast King Godzilla opened his great jaws and poured all his affection straight into Shangang's throat!
Regarding how his previous Charged Breath had punched straight through Shangang's body yet failed to kill her, the Beast King had clearly gained experience and learned a lesson from that battle.
Generally, in pursuit of maximum power, one compressed the breath into the narrowest possible beam, aimed directly at the enemy's weak point, and killed them in one shot!
But when that international convention met Shangang, it was challenged.
Godzilla did not need to compress his breath to the absolute limit. Instead, he needed to widen it and strike as much surface area as possible!
That was exactly what the Beast King did with this Charged Breath.
He only charged it through two stages, then without compressing it at all, poured the entire blast into Shangang's throat!
The glowing blue beam instantly flooded into Shangang's body through the passage. Its charged power was so terrifying that Shangang's belly visibly swelled, showing just how immense the volume was.
As the Charged Breath ravaged her insides, glowing blue points of light leaked from wounds all over her body.
Break her from within!
Or rather, there was no need to break her from within. It was simply maximum firepower coverage, swallowing Shangang whole, inside and out!
By then, Yamata had already come ashore while the Beast King was beating Shangang to a pulp.
Watching Shangang being tortured so brutally made his back go cold.
Boss Head in particular felt incredibly fortunate.
Luckily, his useless little brothers had acted quickly back then and joined forces with all seven heads to suppress him.
Otherwise, with Boss Head's penchant for provocation, he could already imagine the miserable fate awaiting him.
Judging by how savage the Beast King was, there was no chance of currying favor with him.
Boss Head could not help shuddering, then he recovered.
From today onward, he would be the Beast King's loyal little brother. No one could stop him.
At this time, the environmental contamination caused by Shangang's massive amount of poisonous blood had already become extremely severe.
