17 A New Attack

A few days later, I felt the presence of another Kaiju again. He was very far away from me and it seemed like he was getting further and further away.

"How far is it and how long will it take me to get there? Perhaps it is better to leave this attack to the military?" I began to doubt whether I should go there. Even if all goes well, I won't be able to return to US shores.

"Will the military cope?" When I first saw the Kaiju, he was in pretty good shape, and that was after a full day of fighting the military of the country that spends the most money on defense in the world. At this rate, they would destroy the Kaiju in about a week. How long will it take to destroy the Kaiju with less equipped armies? Fortnight? Month?

Gathering my strength, I rose to the surface of the ocean and swam towards the Kaiju. The fastest way of swimming for me was something like breaststroke. The giant turtle's body was constantly rising and falling above the water, creating large waves and splashes of water. The shape of the body was not very suitable for swimming. Armored plates protruded all over the body. Godzilla was definitely faster in the water than Gamera. Therefore, rising to the surface, it was possible to reduce friction with the water.

To be honest, Gamera didn't really want to go there. After the last fight, he subconsciously tried to avoid the conflict, but he realized that it would not help him increase his strength and life span. Aliens might be interested in him and attack him, so he had no choice.

As he floated, heavy bombers and jets flew high in the sky above him. This was good because it meant that other countries decided to help in the fight.

The ocean is just incredibly big. At full speed it took him 3 days to see land in front of him. Having come ashore tiredly, there was no city in front of him, but only endless hills covered with thick greenery. Climbing one of the hills, he saw a rich land that had never been touched by the deadly breath of winter. Everything grew and blossomed. Large mountains and hills with a height of 500 to 1000 meters. Impenetrable tropical jungle with a hilly surface created a picture of untouched nature. It would be difficult for a person to cross this area on foot.

"Should I cross these mountains? Is it better to go around these mountains by swimming across the ocean? But I don't know if I've reached an island that can be bypassed or if it's a continent," thought Gamera. He feling the enemy in front of him, and it seems that he is on the other side of the mountains. "I will go across the mountains!" - having solved this problem, Gamera jump down from the hill on which he was standing. After the first impact on the ground, he began to fall and topple over. With a powerful impact, he reached the foot of the hill, which was more like a gorge between two hills.

Rising to his feet, he began to climb another, nearby hill that was on his way. He didn't have time to shake off the dust, so he looked like a beast smoking brown smoke. His body mutated after he was eat the Kaiju. He didn't have solid armor now, it was divided into smaller plates, his arms were longer and stronger. After training, his muscles also looked more expressive, there was not that unattractive decrepitude, as in old turtles.

These changes in the body allowed him to climb the hill with great speed. His movements resembled those of a gorilla, not a turtle. His size and strength allowed him to ignore the trees that cracked under him. He clawed into the rock and lunged forward, swimming up. When he was already at the top, he simply jumped down from it. Strong earthquakes and destruction accompanied him at every step. Sometimes the tops of the hills could not support his weight and crumbled, so he began to go through them like a battering ram. After a great explosion of earth at the top of the hill, Gamera went through the smoke and ducked down.

This continued for quite some time until he noticed the horizon filled with smoke. Approaching even closer, a catastrophic picture of destruction and despair opened before him. The city was burning and sending black smoke into the sky. It was the end of the world for this city. The sounds of explosions echoed behind a low hill near the city. Carefully climbing it, he saw the opponent. Having destroyed a large city, he "walking" along the intercity highway, heading to a nearby town. Although there were buildings everywhere, and it was difficult to distinguish the edges of the city, the entire area was inhabited. The Kaiju didn't pay attention to the planes and helicopters shooting at him with machine guns. What he could reach, he destroyed, and did not pay attention to the rest.

The Kaiju was very tall, taller than the previous one with four hands. His long and thin hands reached to the ground. The body itself was thin, but tall. The tail is long and sharp. The face was strange, with a massive chin and the same forehead. The forehead was like a reflection of the chin, and between them were two red eyes and a mouth glowing with fire. Along the spine, cylindrical bones protruded in different directions, like some canisters. It looked like some skinny monster from a horror anime.

Gamera needed to act. The monster could not be allowed to reach another city. He gasped for air and growled.

ROOOAAAAAAAAAAARRR!

A loud scream echoed through the air, creating a shock wave that shook the trees.

Not far from the events, people saw a large creature with armored plates on its back and chest. His silhouette exuded strength and power to conquer. With murderous intent, the creature exposed its not large, but sharp teeth at its enemy.

It would seem that now another cry will be heard, which will indicate the beginning of a duel between monsters. People held their breath in anticipation, but even after a minute the second cry not come out.

"Is he ignoring me?!" - thought Gamera with irritation. The Kaiju continued on his way, ignoring Gamera's alpha call. It was as if no one had challenged him and in general there was no one else here except him.

"What the hell?" - having no other choice, Gamera went to the long-limbed monster himself. He will have to intercept the monster on the way to residential buildings. We had to go quickly and carefully. Sometimes he saw people, that's why he tried to step over small buildings and speed up his pace in the plantations. It was the first time he was walking in populated areas, and it made him nervous. Unfortunately, the Kaiju left him no choice. He can't just run around the town and cry while watching the Kaiju destroy everything.

As he approached, he is planning his next move, "Should I hit him in the back or jump to him from behind and knock him to the ground?" But everything suddenly changed! Just as he was ready to strike, the Kaiju spun around and with a full swing of his arm, hit Gamera in the face like a whip.

BANG!

There was no weight to this blow, but it did a fair amount of damage. Gamera immediately lost momentum and leaned to the side. He lost consciousness for a moment and quickly fell to the ground under the influence of gravity. There was another sound of hitting the ground and the crunch of the houses as he crushed them with his weight.

The right side of his face turned into a bloody bath. His mouth, right eye, and nose were bleeding, and his skin was cracked and bruised. Having fallen to the ground, he came to himself and did not understand where he was. The next moment he felt a stabbing blow to his side.

AAAAAAAAAARH!

Gamera screamed in pain and looked at the impact. He saw the Kaiju stick a long bony spike sticking out of the inside of his palm into the gap between his armor plates. In a pained frenzy, Gamera grabbed the Kaiju's hand and thrust out a spike, but the spike immediately returned to him. This time the spike hit the plate and deflected downward, leaving a deep scar on the ground.

While the Kaiju was swinging another punch, Gamera pushed himself off the ground with all his might and stood up. He caught the spiked hand that flew at him for the third time and knocked it aside. This allowed him to get close, but the Kaiju was faster. Taking only one step, he was already far away from Gamera.

"Okay! I can get you even there!" Taking air into his lungs, he breathed out an orange flame. Gamera tried to direct fire into the air at the tall monster in front of him. Sensing danger, the Kaiju moved to the side, but a stream of flames followed him, engulfing his upper body. When the target was hit, Gamera immediately stopped the attack so as not to burn the environment.

While the long-limbed beast burned like a candle and screamed in pain, Gamera pounced on him and knocked him to the ground. He grabbed his head and pressed it to the ground. He felt another stinging blow to his stomach, but did not stop his actions. With a quick movement of his head, he bit the beast's neck and began to tear it to pieces.

This was a weak spot for the tall and thin Kaiju. It was difficult to reach him when he was standing at full height, but when he was on the ground it was easy to do. Moments later, the Kaiju's head flew far away, trailing a plume of blue blood and fire.
