Pacific Rim Godzilla Beats Up Monsters

He hadn't been able to discern the scent of this uninvited behemoth, but Yamata had. If it wasn't because Yamata's nose was just that sensitive, then the two behemoths must have known each other!

Looking at Yamata's current bared teeth and dissatisfied expression, their relationship couldn't have been very good.

"What is that?"

Inside Sakurajima Base, everyone was still sighing over the topic of Yamata's lack of stamina.

At this moment, seeing the sudden change by the seaside, the crowd that had just begun to disperse immediately gathered around again!

"A monster? A brand-new monster that hasn't been recorded!"

Old Luo gave a definitive answer immediately.

As a former pilot and current commander of the Mecha Base, Old Luo had more experience in monster identification than even Luo Bing.

Therefore, after just a glance at this behemoth that resembled a nautilus, he determined that none of the monsters in the recorded cases matched its appearance.

Dr. Chen's eyes, however, were already shining with intense light, her focus absolute:

"This is a previously undiscovered Titan Beast!"

"Perhaps she is here to celebrate the Beast King's victory?"

Old Luo looked at the three behemoths on the big screen, none of which were making a move, and mentally accepted the theory that the nautilus was a Titan Beast.

However, he was still a bit puzzled:

"Is it popular for Titan Beasts to celebrate after a victory? If the Beast King hadn't won, would this Titan Beast have just stayed hidden in the ocean and never come out?"

"Keep watching and we'll see. There's bound to be a reason."

Dr. Chen said without even turning her head.

At this time, Lin Wange, standing behind them, raised her hand and asked:

"Old Luo! Shangang is already dead without a corpse left, and Luo Bing and the others are still on their way. Is there any point in them going over there now?"

"Should we notify the Pipi Shrimp to turn around and head back?"

To turn around on the spot and have the Pipi Shrimp aircraft carrier perform a U-turn in the middle of the Pacific Ocean!

This made sense, and many people nodded in agreement.

But Old Luo shook his head and said:

"Whatever you can think of, Commander Lan can naturally think of as well. Since he hasn't given the order, there must be some other intention."

After Old Luo shot down her suggestion, Lin Wange muttered something under her breath and fell silent.

"Maybe it just forgot..."

At the death site of Shangang.

As the Nautilus Giant Beast crawled onto land, the atmosphere shifted.

It was quite amusing to see the Beast King turn his head to look at Yamata, who was baring his fangs and snarling in a show of intimidation, yet clearly had no intention of actually starting a fight.

The Nautilus Giant Beast emitted a faint "woo-woo" sound. If the pitch were any higher, it would have sounded like a flute, carrying a touch of melodic charm.

The Nautilus Giant Beast continued to move forward until it reached Beast King Godzilla, where it lowered its body, displaying its submission in a very obedient manner.

This was far more straightforward than how Yamata had acted initially.

Of course, that might have had something to do with Yamata having eight heads.

In any group, there are bound to be a few troublemakers; you can't expect everyone to be rational.

Facing the Nautilus's submissive gesture, Godzilla let out a soft roar in response.

He looked incredibly aloof, but in reality, he was feeling quite pleased with himself.

If he told this story later, it would surely become legendary: the Beast King simply stood there, and a Titan Beast emerged from the deep sea to step onto the land.

The Beast King radiated peerless dominance, and the Titan Beast bowed down on the spot.

With a little "artistic embellishment," Godzilla figured such a story would easily be passed down for generations.

But enough of these strange flights of fancy.

The Beast King lowered his head slightly, looked at the Nautilus, and roared a question:

"Roar~"

You didn't show up when I was confronting Shangang, but now that the battle is over, you crawl onto the shore. Are you the legendary post-battle sycophant?

The Nautilus seemed to understand the Beast King's inquiry.

The tentacles on her face brushed against the Beast King's sturdy thigh, and then she turned her body to look at the land.

This land that had been polluted by Shangang.

One of the tentacles on her abdomen reached into the sea, and the Nautilus on the shore opened her mouth wide. Crystal-clear seawater erupted from her maw like a water cannon!

The volume of this discharge was far more impressive than anything Yamata could manage!

A massive volume of seawater with a distinct purifying effect instantly swept across the land of Malaysia. With Nautilus deliberately aiming, it first drenched Yamata like a drowned rat before the water cannon shifted toward the surroundings.

Where the seawater spat out by Nautilus had washed the ground, only a faint, salty scent of the sea breeze remained after the water receded.

The ground was impeccably clean, with no trace of the foul, polluted stench from before.

Yamata, drenched and looking like a drowned rat, let out a furious roar, clearly enraged.

He looked up and saw Nautilus standing beside Beast King Godzilla, as if these actions had been tacitly approved by the Beast King.

The lead head was fuming, looking as if he couldn't swallow this insult.

But in the end, he was finally persuaded by the other underlings, who stepped forward one after another to talk him down.

"Big Brother, calm down, calm down!"

Under the comfort of his useless and spineless underlings, the lead head temporarily suppressed his anger and did not charge over to fight Nautilus.

However, it was easy to imagine that he wouldn't be able to let this grudge go so easily.

"Hiss--"

"Big Brother, I'm leaving first. You guys have fun here; I don't want to see that water snail again!"

He let out a soft hiss toward the Beast King, conveying this meaning. Then, the Beast King turned his thick head, and seeing that the latter had no intention of objecting, Yamata felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He quickly stepped into the sea and left the land of Malaysia.

Although there was plenty of volcanic activity on the Malaysian island chain, Yamata had no intention of hibernating here.

Wanting to return home to sleep was one reason; after all, it was familiar, and there's no place like home.

But the most important reason was that he did not want to see the Nautilus Giant Beast again.

The relationship between the two Titan Beasts was not harmonious; even being near each other felt awkward.

Both sides had memorized each other's scent perfectly, and they would notice the moment the other appeared nearby.

Rather than saying the Nautilus Giant Beast had come to celebrate the Beast King's victory or to submit to him, It would be more accurate to say that she had been awakened by an old enemy and had followed the trail all the way here, only then discovering Beast King Godzilla.

If she were to sneak away at this moment and Yamata were to report her later, it would be troublesome.

With that, she walked out into the open, bold and unashamed.

There was nothing pathetic about submitting to the Beast King; if anything, it was only natural.

Besides, the real point was to get under Yamata's skin and annoy her old enemy.

Watching Yamata dive headfirst into the water, moving even faster than when she had arrived, Godzilla couldn't help but wonder, Are you really that desperate to get back to your little nest and sleep?

But speaking of sleep, the Beast King glanced toward the distant sea. Black specks were already visible on the horizon.

It was the Pipi Shrimp.

The reinforcements had arrived!

Even though the fight had been over for ages—and Shangang's corpse had been reduced to slag by a combination of magma and chemically-laced seawater—the reinforcements had finally shown up. They were just... a little late.

Better late than never, as the saying went.

Checking the remaining activity time in the Golden Finger space, the Beast King saw a notification that less than five minutes remained. He let out a low rumble, then slowly descended into the sea and departed.

That left only the Nautilus Giant Beast on the beach, diligently cleaning up the mess.

However, once the Beast King was gone, the Nautilus's eyes darted around, and her body began to tremble.

Then, six long, slender, sharp limbs, resembling the legs of a spider, extended from the nautilus shell.

This was her true form!

Perhaps because she had felt suppressed and restricted before, she now felt a sense of relief and liberation, letting out a happy, "Woo-woo!"

It turned out that using octopus tentacles to move earlier had been a ruse to deceive the Beast King!

After all, when she moved using those octopus tentacles, she stood only 80 meters tall. With the appearance of a nautilus combined with a few tentacles, she wasn't suited for land movement at all.

Under those circumstances, as long as she expressed submission, the Beast King would never have viewed her as a threat.

But things were different now. This was her true face.

By using her spider legs to move, her height instantly surged to 100 meters, making her even taller than the 90-meter Beast King.

That slight difference in height would have been enough to make the petty-minded Beast King want to kill her and eliminate the threat.

At this very moment, this body, a fusion of nautilus, octopus, spider, and other features, was the true Perfect Form of this Titan Beast!

Following this, she opened her massive maw once again to spray seawater, her demeanor becoming far more relaxed and at ease.

It was much more convenient to move in her Perfect Form; the posture she had used earlier, paddling along with octopus tentacles, had been truly awkward!

Although she had returned to her original appearance, she still had to clean up the mess.

The Beast King might come to inspect the goods at any moment, and this Titan Beast had no desire to make an enemy of him.

Even though she stood a head taller than the Beast, when it came to actual combat power, she dared not act recklessly in front of the Beast King.

Especially since... she could sense that the Beast King was still growing, slowly but steadily.

"She is feigning weakness, using a fragile posture to gain the Beast King's approval rather than his hostility!"

Dr. Chen, who had been watching the entire scene on the large screen, spoke up, drawing upon her own knowledge:

"In the natural world, when one predator is significantly weaker than another, it can receive protection from the stronger one, and there are precedents for forming groups to live together."

"But if the strength of two predators is comparable, they will inevitably fight until one is dead!"

"There can be only one King!"

Dr. Chen remarked with emotion:

"This Titan Beast is incredibly intelligent!"

"By showing weakness to the Beast King, she successfully gained his recognition. This way, she no longer needs to worry about the Beast King attacking her."

"The Beast King is an extremely arrogant existence. Based on the information we currently have, aside from his keen interest in slaughtering monsters, he spends most of his time dormant, hidden deep within the ocean."

"Only this time, having traveled a long distance to Malaysia, did he summon Yamata. Usually, he doesn't interfere with the lives of the Titan Beasts under his command at all."

A boss who doesn't interfere with the lives of his subordinates—where else could you find such a leader?
