"Roooaaar!"

The Kaiju screamed, their bodies torn apart by the blast and hurled into the air.

The scene was brutally violent. These low-level Kaiju were no different from cannon fodder. The moment they met the giant's bright eyes, they turned to ash.

"Roooaaar!"

The Category V Kaiju remained the main fighting force, with bodies far stronger than those of the other Kaiju and far deadlier toxicity.

A Category V Kaiju, Poison Woman, seized a gap between the giant's attacks and lunged forward, intent on tearing this much shorter humanoid creature to pieces with her jaws.

The other Kaiju followed close behind.

Whoosh!

An instant later, this Kaiju that would have given countless Jaegers headaches split in two, flesh and blood flying everywhere!

A dazzling disc of light passed through her body and plunged into the Kaiju behind her, carving a path of blue blood!

Not a single Kaiju or building could stop the disc. They could only let it advance until its energy could no longer sustain it!

"Is... is this what that move can really do?!" Watching the scene, Young Hansen suddenly remembered hearing over comms that Shaolin Rogue had killed Leatherback and Raijin with a mechanical disc of light. He immediately connected it to this attack.

After seeing the disc's power firsthand, he finally understood why Natsuki had called that move the low-energy version.

What Kaiju could possibly stop the full version of this attack?!

The archbishop and Yochi watched the giant fight.

Even they could not help growing somber at the sight of this utterly one-sided battle.

Not even the Category V Kaiju could survive a single attack from the giant.

Their only consolation was that the giant was still eliminating the Kaiju too slowly.

At this rate, they could easily hold out for those three minutes.

"Good. I don't have to use my last resort yet." Yochi stared at the giant wielding discs of light like a butcher and temporarily suppressed his urge to step forward and settle things in a duel.

Besides their Kaiju army, which relied on numbers, they had also prepared a super Kaiju that relied on quality.

Judging by the situation, he probably would not need to control that Kaiju and fight the giant.

Just as he was about to say that it was a shame-

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The giant hurled the two discs of light in his hands, sending them slicing through countless Kaiju.

Then, beneath a host of puzzled gazes, he leaped into the air and hovered over the entire space, seemingly having made a decision.

"What is he going to do?" The archbishop narrowed several eyes, trying to guess the giant's intentions.

Something about the aura the giant now radiated felt wrong.

Even the gas surrounding his body seemed to be distorting.

All the archbishop could see was the giant looking down at the countless Kaiju and buildings, a faint glow forming at his wrist, growing brighter... and brighter.

The instant he saw the giant raise one arm vertically, Yochi understood.

Without sparing the archbishop a thought-

He turned and sprinted away!

"What are you running from?!"

"As a member of an advanced civilization, how can you feel fe-"

The archbishop noticed Yochi's movement and was about to reprimand him.

Then he saw the giant's other arm, which had been rising slowly, snap against the upright arm to form a cross.

Buzzz!!!

An azure beam erupted from the edge of the giant's hand. A powerful shock wave spread with it, instantly turning the air in its path into plasma.

The beam struck the dense mass of Kaiju below. Its surging energy pulverized every Kaiju it touched, like true divine punishment!

"WTF!"

"It's like shooting mice with a Gatling gun!"

"No, it's way crazier than that!"

"I've never seen a Gatling gun that could rip up the ground too!" Young Hansen shouted, clutching his hair as he watched.

This was fucking mind-blowing!

One sweep of that blue beam turned hundreds upon thousands of Kaiju into fireworks before they could even finish screaming. Under its barrage, the Precursors' buildings were as fragile as paper, collapsing in vast swaths!

"How is this possible?!"

If the giant's previous attacks had merely surprised the archbishop, then now he felt genuine terror!

This utterly incomprehensible beam had more than enough power to kill them all.

The giant maintained the beam, standing in the center of the space as he slowly swept it across the entire area.

Category IV Kaiju, Category V Kaiju-it made no difference before this beam.

The same went for their creators, the Precursors.

Kaiju died in droves, and the Precursors' order collapsed in an instant.

The entire space descended into utter chaos.

The dignity of an advanced civilization, the arrogance of the Precursors-the moment the Specium Ray struck, all of it became a joke.

This was completely overwhelming power, impossible to match.

So what if they were an advanced civilization? So what if they were silicon-based life? A civilization capable of establishing order and upholding justice among countless civilizations stood on an entirely different level from any other.

These cosmic bumpkins, the Precursors, finally understood what true power meant!

Buzzz!!!

Boom!

The archbishop watched the Specium Ray sweep past right in front of him. The buildings in that area instantly became ruins. The creations of their civilization were so fragile before this beam that they had completely collapsed!

"No... this isn't how it should be!" The archbishop, once surrounded by countless Precursors, had fallen into the abyss and crashed onto the rubble-covered ground, surrounded by fragments of Kaiju bodies.

Their Kaiju Factory, their army, the civilization they were so proud of-none of it should have been this helpless!

"Quick, help me up!" He thrust half his body out of the rubble, calling to the Precursors who had fallen with him.

The high rank granted by his innate genes still held sway. In Precursor society, he stood at the privileged pinnacle, and lower-ranking Precursors were meant to obey him.

But when he looked around, he froze.

The servants who had gathered around him, the low-ranking Precursors under his command, either lay dead among the ruins or had scattered and fled.

Their order had collapsed.

Their civilization had crumbled!

At that moment, he was no longer the lofty archbishop. He was no longer the council member who could decide the life or death of lesser civilizations with a wave of his hand. He was no different from any other Precursor.

He was not even any different from the Kaiju he had created.

They had only one identity-invaders about to face judgment!

The giant did not care whether they were an archbishop or an ambassador. The instant that beam struck, none of it meant anything.

The chaotic crimson space... the collapsing society... the civilization plunging into the abyss-these were the consequences of the Space Garrison passing judgment!

In the rear.

Yochi, who had withdrawn ahead of the others, reached a large Kaiju Factory.

He shoved aside the Precursor overseeing Kaiju production. Under the puzzled gazes of the surrounding Precursors, he pulled out a complex syringe-like instrument and drove it hard into his chest.

Then he shouted at them.

"Use my genes to awaken our strongest weapon!"

"I'll kill that giant!"

With those words, Yochi transferred his consciousness through the instrument into an enormous Kaiju.

He had to activate their emergency measure.

This was the Kaiju he had originally intended to use against the giant, and it was also their strongest Kaiju.

Once those three minutes were up, victory would be theirs!
