Godzilla Earth: Origin

Chapter 20: Gazing at the Sky

For the specialized Godzilla-class warships production is expected to be completed within 10 days

Various military factories worldwide are already constructing ships and railguns at maximum speed, with an estimated addition of 30 destroyers and 500 railguns per day globally.

The Far East Armed Forces will set up preliminary defense facilities within a month.

This includes 750 super-heavy railguns, 20,000 unmanned combat vehicles, and 5,000 unmanned bombers. Global resources will be concentrated here to prepare for the eradication of Godzilla.

The first wave of support troops from the Far East Defense Wall Construction Support Unit arrived with supplies 100 minutes before the start of the meeting. We kindly request the emergency management team to coordinate the logistics planning.

The large unmanned autonomous base vehicles will land in Osaka, Hokkaido, and Nagoya Port, and the government plans to establish the first coastal defense line within two weeks.

We will defend the Far East at all costs until Godzilla is destroyed!

Following the scientific research report on Godzilla, the government issued a work order.

This meeting was longer than the previous report, so it took over three hours to conclude.

After the meeting, Ryo Akiyama rubbed his temples and walked out of the conference room with his colleagues.

Akiyama-senpai, can you continue like this?

I should be able to manage. I can still hold on. I got some sleep yesterday.

Akiyamas companion looked at him, noticing his weary expression, and asked with concern.

He knew that Akiyama had been staying up late these past few days and was physically exhausted.

However, Akiyama assured him that he could endure because he had a good nights sleep yesterday.

Whoosh!

Rumble, rumble

As they exited the conference building, the sounds of fighter jets and helicopters reached Akiyamas ears.

He looked up at the twilight sky filled with dozens, even hundreds of aircraft and murmured to himself:

They sure love to talk big

In the previous meeting, the request from the government was clearly to turn the entire Far East into a front-line battlefield.

Far East Defense Wall, Far East Ground Armed Forces, New Far East Air Force

These internationally supported military forces would all arrive in the Far East within a month.

The worlds military power would converge here, and the transfer of local authority alone would be a complicated matter.

The establishment and installation of the defense wall, as well as the development of specialized weapons against Godzilla, are indeed troublesome tasks.

However, despite the troubles, Ryo Akiyama knew deep down that having such assistance was much better than having none at all.

A battlefield, by definition, is a place where both sides engage in combat. With their local fighting capabilities alone, they didnt even qualify to call themselves a battlefield; they could only endure Godzillas rampage.nove(l)bi(n.)com

Therefore, they had to draw support from other regions through the government, even if it meant other major regions using the Far East as a shield.

But a shield, at least, can withstand a few hits, right?

After leaving the government building, Akiyama and his colleagues called an unmanned vehicle and headed to the airport where the first batch of support troops for the construction of the Far East defense wall would arrive.

During the ride, Akiyamas colleague, Mitsuyu Amano, began discussing Godzilla.

Why does Godzilla harbor such deep resentment toward humanity?

It had become a hot topic in recent days, even before the Indian Ocean Fleet was destroyed. People were already discussing it online.

If the first attack on Cape Soya could be considered a coincidence, the second one heading straight for Tokyo Bay couldnt be explained as a mere coincidence.

Godzilla definitely held animosity towards humans; its destruction of humanity was not due to any coincidences.

So, what exactly caused Godzilla to hold such immense hatred?

Could it be the extinction of the Titans after all? I heard someone recently discovered images of Godzilla together with other Titans in ancient underwater ruins. From those images, Godzilla can be seen as a king among Titans.

Its probably because of this that it harbors such resentment towards humans. In that sense, its destruction

Akiyama didnt interrupt Amanos words, but he listened attentively to the content.

The idea that Godzilla was the King of Titans and sought revenge on humanity for killing the Titans was something he heard for the first time.

However, as Amano mentioned its destruction, Akiyamas expression began to deteriorate.

Seeing Akiyamas worsening expression, Amano quickly changed the topic and continued, For Godzilla, it may be justified. But in seeking revenge against the Titans, arent we also seeking revenge against them?

Those Titans have likely killed numerous other lives throughout their long existence, right? After all, many of them are legendary gods or monsters, and they must have killed humans as well.

So, our revenge is also justified, Akiyama-senpai.

As Amano Mitsuyu uttered those words, he glanced at Akiyama Ryo and continued when he saw his expression returning to normal.

Were supposed to meet the support troops for the construction of the Far East defense wall, right? Isnt that the militarys task? Why is it us?

He couldnt quite understand why it fell upon their emergency management team to receive the construction support troops instead of others.

Typically, it would be the responsibility of the logistics department to arrange accommodation for the support teams from outside the region. At the very least, it should be managed by the military. So why did it end up being their emergency management teams responsibility?

To this question, Akiyama pondered for a moment and replied, Because its too troublesome.

Too troublesome? Is it an issue with Tokyo?

If that were the case, it would make sense. After all, over 30 million people migrated to Tokyo the night before yesterday. Even if a million people were transported to Seoul yesterday through the cross-sea train.

But now, Hokkaido, Osaka, and Nagoyathe three major metropolitan areaswere still severely overcrowded. This was undoubtedly a troublesome situation.

In that case, it was understandable that the logistics department and the military didnt have the capacity to receive the support teams.

However, upon closer examination, there was still a problem. The arrangement for those ten million people should fall under the jurisdiction of their emergency management department. It shouldnt be handled by the militarylogistics, at the very least, should have some say in it.

With a puzzled expression on his face, Akiyama Ryo simply glanced at his phone to confirm their current location. Then he said to Amano Mitsuyu, Look at the sky.

Upon hearing these words, Amano Mitsuyu shifted his body slightly.

Amano Mitsuyu moved himself to the window and pressed his face against the glass, looking outside.

Boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom

Boom, boom, boom

Although he couldnt hear the sounds from outside, at the moment he saw the sky, Amano Mitsuyus mind resonated with the sound wave composed of countless transport planes.

Hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of them.

Lifting steel beams, carrying tanks, transporting parts.

The towering steel bases that didnt exist until two hours ago stood on the horizon.

Countless transport planes landed on the flat ground several kilometers away and unloaded a large amount of cargo, including people and objects.

Teams of robots emerged from the landing transport planes, one large robot after another being unloaded.

Unmanned robots welded and transported various building materials on the steel bases, constructing this giant foundation.

This was the embodiment of human industry.

Its not that group of people from Tokyo thats troublesome.

Its this group of people who are really troublesome, and logistics and the military dumped it on us.

In the distance, the power of humanity was displayed to the fullest.
