Finally, they were about to confront it head-on.
Clutching the chain in his hand, Akiyama Ryo and the rest of the team sat together in their makeshift camp, with a heavy transport plane prepared to carry them to their deaths nearby.
Everyone in the camp was equipped with jetpacks, and their entire bodies were covered with protective gear, leaving no part of them exposed, much like astronauts in a space movie.
However, their purpose for wearing this gear had nothing to do with space travel.
Their objective was simply to offer themselves as sacrifices.
The jetpacks were ant to allow them to fly close to Godzillas body and disrupt its movents.
The protective gear was intended to keep them alive while doing so, preventing Godzilla from sensing their presence.
Even the small explosives hidden inside their clothing were for the chance that soone might get close to Godzillas head and self-destruct inside its mouth when it prepared to use its atomic breath.
None of these equipnts were designed to serve the wearers well-being.
They were a complete suicide kit, and once they put it on, it was as if they were saying they wouldnt co back alive.
Once they donned this gear, it signified their journey to the netherworld.
Why did all of you co to the frontline to fight Godzilla? With three hours left until Godzilla entered the defense line, they couldnt just do nothing during this ti.
Soone broke the silence and tried to use conversation to pass the ti during their last three hours of life.
However, no one responded to the question, leaving the person who asked feeling awkward.
To ease the atmosphere, he decided to start by introducing himself.
Let start. Im a mber of the Far East Land Forces. My parents passed away a few years ago, and I havent found the right person to start a family with.
Ever since I beca the only one in my family, my life lost its purpose. I was just living day by day, not knowing what kind of worthless life I was leading.
No goals, no dreams. But even so, I still wanted to help others, to have a glorious end. So, after Godzillas landing, I chose to stay behind.
What about all of you?
After sharing his experience, he waited in silence. Eventually, another person spoke up.
Ive been away from ho for 15 years. During this ti, Ive achieved nothing and even burdened my family.
My mother and father passed away because of their grudges against , and Ive been nothing but a burden. So this ti, I want to clear up all this ss.
As the second person spoke, the atmosphere gradually improved. The third person imdiately followed:
Im a civil servant. My mother passed away early, and my father died from a hereditary disease. A few days ago, I was also diagnosed with the sa illness.
A hereditary disease? I have it too
I have one from East Asia
As more people started sharing their experiences, the initially awkward atmosphere disappeared entirely. They were all talking about their encounters, both positive and negative.
So were young and spirited individuals fighting to protect their ho and country, willing to make Godzilla pay for the sacrifices of their compatriots.
So were miserable and hateful, seeking escape from debts and wishing for a quick death.
Others ignored their parents objections, determined to keep the invaders outside their hos, loyal soldiers who loved their holand.
There were also brave n who believed they should die on the land that gave them life.
There were also so individuals who didnt know why they stayed and ended up in the transport vehicles.
As the discussion continued, Akiyama Ryo also joined in, but he didnt reveal the death of his wife and daughter. Instead, he comforted others who had been compelled to join the battle.
As he comforted others, Akiyama Ryo started reflecting on his own emotions. Why did he refuse to go to East Asia and choose to stay?
Was it because Godzilla killed his family and left him with nothing but resentnt?
Was it because he didnt want to leave the mories of their ho?
Or was it because of his determination to protect their ho?
The main reason for him choosing to stay was the latter, while the rest
He thought about the others he had seen in the past few days who had similar experiences, like the girl who lost her parents.
If the Eastern Region fell, Godzilla would directly face East Asia.
Once Hokkaido was destroyed, his role as the Ergency Minister of Hokkaido would beco aningless. So why not shine where he could be useful?
He was the Ergency Minister of Hokkaido.
My reason for staying?
I owe a huge amount of debt outside, and I also have three children to support. But this ti, if I die fighting Godzilla and win glory for my family, things will change.
With glory, those people who lend money with high-interest rates wont dare to co after us anymore. And you know what? There will be compensation for the dead, and maybe even their tuition will be covered.
Besides, Im the type of person who wants to contribute to my hotown, even though Ive never achieved much in my life.
At least in the future, my children can say that their father was a hero!
Soone said this with a smile, and the world language with a distinct regional accent elicited laughter from the others. But at the sa ti, they felt sympathetic towards his experiences, laughing, crying, and sharing their heartfelt stories.
As ti passed, the three hours quickly slipped away while they were talking.
Even though they didnt realize how long they had been chatting, the sky was already bright when they finished sharing their thoughts.
At this mont, the broadcast ca on.
Godzilla has made contact with the first wave of troops in the south wing. All personnel, imdiately enter the transport vehicles. After the alarm sounds, advance towards Godzilla!
The last three hours were over. People stood up, locked themselves into the transport vehicles, and awaited the command for their final charge.
Akiyama Ryo lined up and walked into the transport vehicle, clenching his fist.
For his reunion, for the future of others.
The ultimate battle that decided the fate of both sides in the Eastern Region officially began at this mont.
In the distance, amidst the mountains, Godzilla engaged in direct conflict with the people.
Tanks fired rockets, drones took off from the sea with secret weapons, and Godzillas atomic breath swept across the sky.
Death was for rebirth.
Destruction was for regeneration.
