What's that?
Birth Island has disappeared.
It's a dinosaur, a red dinosaur!
The glowing fins, the color of the ray, we've never seen this before.
So the incident last month...
It seems Birth Island was destroyed due to the fission reaction
of natural uranium in the strata there caused by an eruption of hot water.
Which affected Godzilla.
This is Meru Ozawa, Information Officer, G-Center America.
Our team has a progress report on Godzilla
from Professor Marvin, expert on nuclear energy.
Your father...
The son of Dr. Yamane?
Shinichi Yamane.
Godzilla killed all his family. Then, Dr. Yamane adopted him.
My father wanted his children to become scientists like his dad.
But I failed all my exams and my sister is a TV reporter.
He wouldn't be very proud of us, I guess.
Yukari Yamane, the newscaster, is your sister?
Exactly.
I read your thesis.
Why send it to the U.S.?
I did send it to G-Force first.
But they just plain ignored me. They sent it back.
I am not surprised.
My professor didn't take it seriously either and refused to give me a credit.
Would you cooperate with us?
My father spoke to me a lot about Godzilla.
We had a mass of data about it in my grandfather's room.
But...
Godzilla is just a hobby for me.
Besides, I don't like conferences.
The Japanese like to congregate and discuss. It's a bad habit.
In that case...
I should leave.
Excuse me.
Miss Saegusa. You have returned.
I see. I'll be right there.
Wait. Did you say Miki Saegusa?
Yeah, I did.
She works at G-Center?
Yes, she leads the team in charge of the little one.
Then I'm coming. Please let me work for you!
Tomorrow. No wait, today!
Well, come. Let's go there.
We've studied oxygen from every aspect
and have succeeded in micro-miniaturizing it.
- And that is Micro-oxygen? -Yes.
You won the Nobel Prize in Physics for it,
but how will it benefit our everyday life?
Divers, for example, will have smaller oxygen bottles.
And fish nourished with Micro-oxygen will become much larger than the others.
The world's food and energy shortage will be greatly improved.
That's all fine and dandy, but what about the darker side of it?
What do you mean?
Like side effects or the possibility of it being used to manufacture weapons.
It is true that these tiny atoms can bore any metal and destroy it.
Like hydrogen atoms.
The destructive power of Micro-oxygen would be frightening.
That said,
I doubt humans would be foolish enough to use it as weapon.
Thank you, Doctor.
Thank you for your scientist-like optimism.
We'll be right back.
You didn't hold back at all. Dr. Ijuin was miffed.
He was overconfident. Or was I out of line?
Being straight is your charm,
but it could be a curse when you fall in love.
What does that mean?
Nothing. I was joking.
I have a message for you.
Thank you.
"Please come by tonight, it doesn't matter how late."
"From Emiko Yamane"
Wonder what Auntie wants?
We looked everywhere, but I still can't find the little one.
Perhaps the little one is already dead?
He's a new guy who came here as an observer.
Kenichi Yamane, at your service.
What makes you say that he's dead?
Godzilla became a super-monster.
He mutated by drawing energy from the nuclear explosion.
But not all life forms mutate like that.
Usually they die.
It is possible that the little one could not adapt to the environment.
Micro-oxygen?
Yes.
I have a feeling that it is very similar to what Dr. Serizawa invented
40 years ago.
It destroyed all the oxygen in the water and suffocated all the life forms
by an oxygen-destroying agent that will liquefy after.
He said if it were ever used as a weapon,
it would be worse than an atom bomb.
So the doctor sealed his invention forever,
sacrificing his life.
What if the invention of this doctor on TV is the same thing?
It can't be.
"National Institute of Physical Chemistry"
Emiko Yamane.
The daughter of Dr. Yamane?
You know of him?
All the scientists of this field in Japan know him.
Then you know of Dr. Serizawa's work?
Of course I do.
In that case, you must know of his invention.
It was certainly on my mind when I started to study oxygen.
I suspect my Micro-oxygen may lead to his invention.
So you know all the risks?
The Earth's environment and resources have changed greatly in 40 years.
This discovery could awaken the devil.
So, Dr. Serizawa died in vain?
If scientists are optimistic, you reporters are sentimental and dogmatic.
I'm saying it's possible, in theory.
I don't plan to create it against Dr. Serizawa's wishes.
"Tokyo Bay Undersea Tunnel Construction Site"
You say this stratum is weird?
One accident after another ever since we started to dig there.
Certainly a lot of fossils, but there's nothing wrong with the soil.
The thermal regulation is ruined and the elevator shaft is broken down!
What about the shaft?
Half of it has melted and gone!
That's ridiculous!
"Number of Mysterious Accidents in Undersea Tunnel"
"Ancient Strata to Blame?"
The high temperature of sea water indicates
that Godzilla is going through more nuclear
fission than its cooling function can handle.
Nuclear fission in Godzilla is regulated by water in its body
and cooled and controlled by the carbon dioxide that it inhales.
The incident at Birth Island made his fission go out of control.
What is going to happen?
Godzilla will keep getting out of control or explode.
Explode?
Say Godzilla does explode, what kind of damage are we looking at?
It's beyond imagination.
It could be much more than all nuclear bombs going off at once.
If that much nuclear energy is released,
it might ignite the atmosphere and the Earth will be on fire.
- Here he comes. - Dr. Ijuin, a word, please.
- What happened? - We do not know yet.
But what is a physicist doing here?
Because here,
at the bottom of the sea, lies a great scientist.
Bottom of the sea?
Construction has been stopped since the accident,
but no word yet on the causes of the accident.
The mystery only thickens as to why the metal lift shaft has melted.
Next news.
You took a soil sample in the tunnel.
You knew that was where the first Godzilla was killed 40 years ago.
Very observant, just like a reporter.
I spoke with my aunt.
And what?
You think I'll create a devil's weapon from the samples?
Those samples may contain clues.
But I'm more interested
in finding out about when there was no oxygen on Earth
from that layer several miles underground.
There was a time when there was no oxygen?
2.5 billion years ago, during the Precambrian era.
And creatures managed to survive?
They may have been much different than the life we see today.
That's what we're trying to find out.
The Earth, 2.5 billion years ago.
You're not taking this very seriously!
Forgive me, but I did not make fun of you.
You are more romantic than I thought.
I don't know if I'm romantic, but I am not a mad scientist.
Signs of life? Impossible.
No more attacks on Godzilla?
We do not have a choice.
But we have to do something. What if it comes to Japan again?
Attacking Godzilla now...
would be like igniting explosives enough to bore a hole in the Earth.
But...
We can't just sit and do nothing.
If we can't launch an offensive, it will have to be chemical.
Chemical? How is that possible?
There is one possibility.
The thing that killed the first Godzilla 40 years ago.
You mean...
The Oxygen Destroyer.
Listen to me, Ken.
Dr. Serizawa destroyed all his research on the Oxygen Destroyer.
Nothing is left.
And if you think why he did it...
You are right.
Even if you succeed in creating it, you won't have any doubt in using it?
I am not sure.
But, Aunt,
unlike 40 years ago, this time the Earth is in danger.
But I do not like the idea,
whatever your reasons.
Hello! It's Yukari.
Nuclear fission in Godzilla's body?
It is still a secret.
I'm telling you, a reporter,
this because I want you to contact Dr. Ijuin.
I cannot do that.
I know what Aunt feels, but he is our only hope.
Other signs of life?
No, nothing.
Perhaps we were imagining it?
The sample indeed contained a life form.
Hey.
The water? It's dissolving the fish!
Before, you were so afraid I might make the Oxygen Destroyer,
and now you want me to make one?
It is the only way to destroy the Godzilla that continues with nuclear fission.
I hear you're close to creating it.
I said it was possible, but it would definitely not be easy.
- Besides... - Besides?
I made thorough analyses of these samples.
I saw once again the danger of the Oxygen Destroyer.
No one knew because it was underground.
If that had been used above ground,
Tokyo would have transformed itself into a cemetery.
Yamane here.
What? With the aquarium?
SEA FLOOR
I would like to analyze this video.
Stop it and make it larger.
3D Scan.
What is it?
Perhaps the life form in the layer where they were digging the tunnel.
From the Precambrian era?
But it must have transformed.
It was a simple micro-organism trapped in the ancient strata,
but it was resurrected 40 years ago by the Oxygen Destroyer.
And then it touched the air and evolved in an abnormal way.
What you feared has become reality.
The hole that you see in here is the proof. And the fish.
It is impossible!
Micro-oxygen has already spread.
Godzilla has been located.
He is moving slowly, 300 km off the north of Okinawa.
Red alert! Platoons, continue with operations.
Hong Kong, Taiwan, Okinawa. It is obvious. He's coming towards us.
But why to Japan?
Look at these whales that were killed.
You think the little one did it?
Even if it's alive, could it be vicious like that?
I don't think so.
But what if the incident on Birth Island changed him somehow?
Changed?
I have to go find him again.
I don't feel anything. Are you all right, little one?
Calling all cars, unknown life form spotted in the industrial park.
All cars to the scene.
Convoy 105, we are here.
- There you go. - Thank you.
Guide us. Hurry up!
- Media vehicles need to move back! More! - Power is on!
Move back! Let police cars pass. Move back! Let police cars pass.
Omega Leader to Sigma. Omega Leader to Sigma.
Prepare to charge from the west side.
Roger!
Sigma Leader to Omega! Sigma Leader to Omega!
We're entering the basement.
Omega three to Sigma seven, we found the creature! Level three!
Sigma to Omega, hurry to stage seven! The creature is in the B block!
Fall back!
NEWS FLASH MYSTERIOUS CREATURE APPEARED...
We interrupt regular programming. We have a special report.
A mysterious creature appeared at the Tokyo waterfront sub center.
Significant damages have been reported.
I am in the sub center,
where the special forces are fighting the mysterious creature.
The area is now on high alert...
Fire the cannon!
Evacuate the area right now!
Excuse me.
Stop shooting firearms at it right now!
Who are you?
Dr. Ijuin, physicist.
You may not go further. I can't guarantee your safety.
It seems there are several creatures, and some say they are larger than humans.
What?
Look out!
Everyone! Move back! More!
Oh, Doctor!
- Where is Yukari? - I don't know!
Godzilla was spotted in the strait of Bungo.
A warning was issued in all of Kyushu and Shikoku.
Why Bungo?
He's looking for a nuclear power plant.
Godzilla's coming!
- He's going for the power plant! - Sound the alarm!
His nuclear fission is so intense, no wonder he needs more energy.
Godzilla is about to attack a nuclear plant,
and we are powerless to stop him!
If we attack him,
we risk setting off a nuclear explosion...
which will be a hundred times worse than an A-bomb.
Sir, it's the Minister of Defense. The Self-Defense Force has deployed.
G-Force here.
What?
Super X3 is taking off?
Super X3?
Super X3 is our newest weapon with multiple offense/defense capabilities.
It is equipped with the latest cadmium tipped missiles
in preparation for nuclear accidents and attacks.
Its biggest feature is that it uses cryogenic weapons.
Cryogenic weapons?
It has a laser that can freeze anything below 200 degrees Celsius.
Who is piloting it?
That man in the Office of Special Plans.
There is no one else.
All units, hurry up with the check!
Maintenance, stand by.
Start lifting.
Current location...
The main bus is in local mode.
Initiate GMC control.
Final flight check complete.
Catapult ready.
Unlocked.
Hangar door open!
Takeoff line clear!
Super X3, take off!
Come on! Come on! Hurry!
It's destroying reactor three!
Super X3 has passed S11. Prepare for attack.
Target acquired.
Cryo missiles, ready.
- Godzilla's ray is more intense. - Aim for his arms.
Target locked on.
Fire!
He stopped moving.
Cadmium missiles, fire!
The cryogenic weapon cools it and cadmium keeps it cold.
It's perfect.
- Okay, the final blow. - Ready, CryoLaser!
Fire!
- Okay! - We did it!
All right!
Godzilla's temperature is rising rapidly, so according to the computer,
he will stay frozen for only six hours. The rest is up to you.
Time's almost up.
Let's hope he stays in the water until we're ready.
A report from the satellite information center.
The water temp is rising in the area.
He's starting to move.
The target is moving east.
East?
Why isn't he going towards the reactor?
Perhaps he has enough fuel?
The fission seems to be coming under control.
Is that true?
Look.
The blue line is when it's normal. The red is his current condition.
The cadmium finally seems to have an effect.
There will be no explosion, then?
It doesn't appear so.
The creatures are calm for now.
But according to Dr. Ijuin, they could be agitated by carbon dioxide,
so the situation remains dangerous.
Also, a cabinet meeting has been called to request
the deployment of the Self-Defense Forces.
-150 degrees.
-160 degrees.
-170 degrees.
Mix Micro-oxygen.
It liquefies in -183 degrees, as expected.
I confirm that cryogen weapons will liquefy the Micro-oxygen in these creatures.
Excellent.
Hello.
I see.
The deployment of the Self-Defense Forces is officially requested.
So you, too?
I received training at an ESP school in the USA.
They dragged us to a lot of dinosaur sites.
But I never imagined I'd join the Godzilla research team.
Same here. I've been working here for seven years.
I can already tell...
that my powers are weakening.
Maybe that's why I can't find the little one.
I'm scared.
Scared?
Not me. I hope I'll lose this abnormal capability soon.
I want to be a normal girl, fall in love and get married.
- Godzilla! - Everyone, run!
So you are alive.
Images from the helicopter in Omaezaki.
The incident at Birth Island really changed him.
He's no longer little.
He is a Godzilla.
More like Godzilla Junior.
If you trace its trajectory,
there is Junior beyond it.
It's going toward Junior? Is it really possible?
Godzilla and Junior are the only two of the same species.
It's not surprising.
So you're going back north.
North? Are you sure?
The Bering Sea, Adnoa Island.
But of course!
He must be returning to where he was born!
And if Godzilla is following Junior, he's also...
going to the Bering Sea.
I have an emergency report from G-Center in the U.S.
It doesn't look good.
According to the last exploration satellite,
the temperature of Godzilla is climbing.
It reached 900 degrees.
What?
How is that possible?
The fission is under control, but if the reactor is that hot,
it's melting from inside.
What's going to happen to Godzilla?
Meltdown.
Meltdown?
First his heart will melt,
then his body will melt, releasing tons of radiation.
It will cause a hydrogen explosion and bore a hole in the Earth.
The China syndrome.
We stopped the explosion, but now the meltdown...
it will happen at 1,200 degrees.
Its temperature is climbing 50 to 60 degrees per day.
So the meltdown will occur in one week!
The Americans think it may be earlier than that.
Godzilla won't reach the Bering Sea.
We are above Bay of Tokyo under martial law.
The soldiers have apparently exchanged their flamethrowers for cooling weapons,
and they wait for the creatures.
We can't see them from up here.
CryoLaser, ready to attack.
Rise 138 degrees, 41 left.
Control to troops. Lead the creatures to the engine when they appear.
Oxygen Tracer, ready!
Sir!
CryoLasers are ready to fire.
Good.
The creatures are detected!
Full alert! The creatures are detected!
The creatures are in our range!
Target confirmed. CryoLaser, fire!
Cryocannons, fire!
Cooling shells, fire!
It's working, Doctor!
The creatures are gathering.
What?
Density of Micro-oxygen rising!
Too much to measure!
What's happening in there?
It's incredible! The creatures joined together to form a giant monster!
I know Micro-oxygen does not have that kind of power.
What does, then?
The Oxygen Destroyer.
It has the power to destroy everything in its path.
Destoroyah.
Destoroyah?
Destoroyah and Godzilla.
Now we have two incredible monsters.
That's the Oxygen Destroyer.
If it was created by man.
We didn't create the Oxygen Destroyer.
But...
We have it now.
What do you mean?
It's simple.
It's the only thing that can prevent Godzilla from meltdown.
You want Destoroyah to fight Godzilla?
That's a ridiculous idea.
I don't know if it was a good idea or not to welcome to our team a man like you...
who thinks that way.
I told you Godzilla was just a hobby, but now it's beyond that.
If you want to kill Godzilla, it's the only option.
I think it's logical, too.
We have three days, no, maybe less than one day before meltdown.
This is the only solution left to us.
But how do we get the Destoroyah to fight Godzilla?
We bring Junior to the Destroyer and Godzilla will follow.
I can't let Junior be a decoy!
Junior is going home to Adnoa.
Miki, look to the world. Sentimentalism does not have its place.
Our priority is to prevent the meltdown of Godzilla.
With or without you, I will try to modify his trajectory.
We have to look to the world.
We can't think of only Junior or Tokyo.
It is necessary to evacuate people in a radius of 300 km around Tokyo.
Right.
They want to attract Godzilla to Tokyo?
There's no other way.
What are they thinking?
Don't die, Junior.
Hang in there!
Godzilla!
Godzilla is in Tokyo Bay!
So he's come.
He's heading to Haneda!
What's happening?
The Destoroyah is draining Junior's energy, and in exchange, injecting Micro-oxygen.
Junior will be destroyed from inside.
He did it!
What's happening?
I don't know.
Something is happening inside the fire.
Miki, look at Godzilla and Junior.
They're calling to each other.
So that's the adult Destoroyah.
It's so large.
We're leaving the danger zone.
Destoroyah underwent a change.
The temperature of Godzilla is 1140 degrees.
Sir, we have an emergency call from the news chopper.
This is Ijuin.
Please ask the Self-Defense Forces to send Super X3.
Send Super X3?
If Godzilla melts,
we will need to freeze it in order to limit damages to a minimum.
As soon as his temperature is right, shoot all the cryogenic weapons.
Super X3, scramble.
ATS system, ready!
All the CryoLasers?
Yes, sir, and the fuel is fully loaded.
There goes our budget for the next year.
If there is next year.
Afterburner activated.
Super X3, ready for lift off.
Good luck, Major.
Thank you.
Super X3, take off!
Destoroyah is moving towards the bay.
What is it going to do?
Junior!
Sir, we lost the contact with the SC9.
What?
That's Miki's helicopter.
Junior.
No...
Junior.
Godzilla is crying.
He lost his only companion.
This may be Godzilla's last battle.
Destoroyah is moving towards the SC9.
- Miki is in danger. - Do we have a G-Force helicopter?
Negative.
The TV chopper.
No answer because of radio disturbance.
Keep trying!
Come on, sister, pick up.
Godzilla's temperature has reached critical!
I have the TV helicopter.
Sister, go back to the 13th area immediately!
What a monster.
Not even the Oxygen Destroyer can defeat Godzilla.
Meru, are you okay? Hold on!
The TV chopper is passing point D now.
Hurry.
Hurry!
I see them!
- Meru! - Are you okay?
- She's hurt. - Hold on to me.
This way!
- Can you walk? - Yes!
Come on, get in.
Okay.
It's about to meltdown. Take off right now.
Let's go.
Ready.
Prepare to fire CryoLasers as soon as it reaches 1,200.
Super X3 on standby at 500 feet.
Godzilla's temperature is rising rapidly!
Godzilla is starting to meltdown.
CryoLasers, ready to fire.
Destoroyah has taken to flight.
Don't let it go! Shoot it down!
Target acquired.
CryoLasers, fire!
Destoroyah is falling on top of Godzilla!
Godzilla is not moving!
Godzilla.
Meltdown.
- Fire at will. - CryoLasers, fire!
Lasers at maximum power!
What radioactivity!
Godzilla is gone, leaving Tokyo a ghost town.
Is this our atonement?
For what?
The misuse of science, nuclear energy.
My work with Godzilla is finished.
The radiation levels are dropping!
