The COMPLETE Kaiju No. 8 'Kaiju Weapon Arc' Explained

this Arc is the manga's most thrilling Arc yet we have just witnessed our hero getting captured and mistre in the previous Arc but luckily that Arc still ended on a positive note when Kafka was given a chance by Esau to fight alongside his daughter karoo under Captain narumi's command now let's get it started Karo also thought then that this was Jen narumi Japan's strongest anti-monster fighter in the next scene Karo was reading a newspaper about an achiev of the Defense Force and she wondered where Mino was karoo pouted and we got info that she was now currently the assistant to the commander of the first unit when narumi saw the news on his smartphone he became angry at the Creator because they made it look like Mina had defeated the Kaiju he had taken down due to the large size of her picture compared to his it was trending again that Mina had defeated the monster which he found irritating since he was the actual one who defeated it he also read comments suggesting that Mino was getting all the credit which must surely be making narumi cry and how cringey narumi was and that Commander should be classy karoo was speechless again because the strongest fighter in Japan was an internet Warrior narumi's phone rang prompting Karo to ask if he needed to answer it noting it had been ringing for a while narumi said it was fine probably just a boring meeting with Esau and AG staring at each other with serious faces discussing trifling matters he questioned why he would need to go to such a hell hole of a place in the middle of the day suddenly AG arrived kicked him again and said it was necessary because it was part of the job karoo just sighed while drinking her water AG pinched narumi and dragged him to the meeting making narumi question if it was really that important AG explained that their discussion would be about monster number eight which made narumi stare and caught karo's attention meanwhile Kafka was doing push-ups in his cell thinking that 5 days had passed and he hadn't accomplished anything he remembered what Esa had told him about proving his usefulness so he wondered what he needed to do and decided quickly that he would do anything those people wanted for his comrades who also believed in him the door suddenly opened startling him and it turned out that some troop members had come to escort him prompting him to think that this was the moment he had been waiting for upon their arrival in the Chief's room he was surprised to find himself beside isau and narumi he was baffled and wondered to himself why the commander of the first unit was there puzzling over the situation Esau called Kafka and immediately announced that he was assigning him to the first unit Kafka was shocked and isau explained that by combining the monster considered one of the strongest in history with the strongest anti-monster fighter they would create the most powerful unit capable of defeating any monster disaster Master he was giving Kafka a chance to demonstrate his strength in the next subjugation and to convince everyone Kafka stared and thought that being needed as number eight was not exactly what he wanted but he needed to survive for now however just as he was about to accept isa's words narumi immediately objected to the order Kafka turned around and even karoo and a were speechless narumi argued that his presence should be enough for the strongest unit as narumi was about to leave Isa insisted that it was not sufficient causing narumi to Twitch Isa informed him that Kaiju number n capable of transforming into a human and currently hiding was there as well as Kaiju number 10 who commanded a myriad of monsters to attack the Defense Force it was clear that these were different from any monsters they had faced so far he added that they were making daily advances to overcome many Monster disasters but these continued to undergo unknown Evolutions he pointed out to narumi that catastrophes happen when they become arrogant thinking they can handle anything and these catastrophes occur in ways that deeply disrupt their common knowledge and because of this they also need to adapt and evolve narumi Kafka and AG looked on and narumi side realizing the level of Faith Isa had in him he looked at Kafka and said it would be more efficient to use Kaiju number 8 as a weapon for his use Kafka was shocked and so was Karo just as Isa was about to speak Kafka called out to narumi and explained that he could not die until he had fulfilled what he needed to do kfka saluted and said that because of this he would grasp anything that might help him showing his respect for being under the first unit and narumi they looked at each other and narumi Let It Go commenting that he did not care about kafka's thoughts circumstances or determination he just needed to show results and power and if kfka caused trouble again he would immediately deal with it and make him his suit after that narumi left the chief's room and kfka saluted again and thanked him in the next scene there was a sudden earthquake in one area causing people there to worry and comment that such events had been happening frequently recently with others saying it would subside soon however instead of subsiding the earthquake intens ified shaking the ground even more the paths and buildings began to crumble under the force and the people there were terrified many buildings were damaged due to the quake and it turned out that a large hole had formed in the middle of shinagawa City terrified people wondered what was happening there and when they looked into the hole it seemed they saw eyes it turns out that the hole was filled with numerous insect type monsters and they immediately began swarming the surface area while this was happening we go to the base of the first unit where they had just finished their morning training karoo was very pumped up thinking she couldn't waste any time and she immediately went to narumi to tell him that today was the day he would join her for one-on-one training however when Karo opened the door to narumi's room she found him in a bowing position which puzzled her the reason he was kneeling was that he was asking karoo for money because he didn't know why his salary from last week had suddenly disappeared prompting karoo to point out that narumi had bought many Amazon products karoo was angry that their Commander was asking for money from a subordinate so narumi explained that he was just asking for financial power to which Karo refused and insisted that he join her for training suddenly an alarm went off grabbing their attention and AG arrived to say it was time to work in the next scene they suited up along with the other troops narumi comment Ed that he was in the middle of an important negotiation after that he led the first unit to move out to address the Kaiju that had emerged in shinagawa he boldly declared that they would beat them up in shinagawa people were running for their lives while being chased by a giant Kaiju that resembled an ant during this a broadcaster was reminding residents in the area to act immediately to save their lives and evacuate to the designated shelter as people check their smartphones a man mentioned a less crowded route to the r 56 shelter suggesting they go that way there was a brother and sister left beside a car with the little sister crying out of fear her brother tried to comfort her assuring her that the first unit would arrive soon he said that narumi would destroy all the monsters there so they shouldn't worry suddenly they heard something snap nearby and when they turned they saw one of the monsters staring at them the siblings trembled with fear but the brother bravely stood up to Shield his sister he kept thinking that narumi would arrive as they faced the giant monster and just as they were about to be eaten his thoughts came true narumi arrived and immediately stabbed the Kaiju in the back the monster was quickly defeated and the siblings were initially shocked but soon filled with joy upon seeing their Idol narumi then called the young boy and told him that as a punishment for calling an honorable Commander without honorifics he should go home alive and post Commander narumi is so cool 10 times on social media using his mother's smartphone the boy quickly agreed and other troops escorted them to a safe place afterward narumi asked his platoon leaders Kashi and miak about their situation Kashi confirmed that they had identified four monsters in their area and expected to defeat them quickly while miak reported that their subjugation was already complete narumi instructed them to first understand the overall situation prioritize the safety of the citizens and address the targets based on the situation otherwise they would maneuver them to the subjugation sites his subordinates agreed and immediately took action he then called Karo and Kafka referring to Kafka as Monster number8 and instructed them to exterminate all the monsters entering the subjugation area he added that the residents in that area had been evacuated so they should not hold back their strength and show results there the determination to perform impressively was evident in both of them Kafka and kakuru stealed themselves to demonstrate their true capabilities to their Captain additionally this was kafka's first opportunity to show his real battle usefulness to director General Esau the first batch of Kaiju had arrived in the neutralization zone so kakuro went out to confront them wielding her giant axe narumi ordered his platoon leader Ren Shino Noma to provide backup for kakuru in case it was needed however AK Kaiju suddenly splattered in front of them and it was kikoru who was responsible for that it only took a strong horizontal Slash from kikoru to completely kill the Kaiju some of the senior officers were surprised by the strength kakur displayed yet kakur herself was not satisfied with her own performance level feeling her speed was still too slow compared to Vice Captain hashas moreover Captain Mina's Attack Force was stronger than hers these thoughts circled in kora's mind as she killed her second Kaiju narumi and ren were impressed with her offensive efficiency and even kafa cheered her on then suddenly a Kaiju appeared behind platoon leader Ren resulting in her being reprimanded by kikoru Ren seemed slightly annoyed by hikaru's arrogance but she actually liked her personality Ag and one of the platoon leaders even teased narumi because their new girl was performing better now than narumi did in his first year with the Defense Force however narumi was not in the mood for jokes due to their strange encounter that night occasionally it's normal for ant type Kaiju to stray onto the surface but they are normally encountered only in tunnels so the situation was Eerie because of their massive simultaneous appearance in the middle of the city this was very similar to the Kaiju raid at tachikawa base a few months ago thus it was likely that there was also an intellectual leader guiding the Kaiju army they were currently facing suddenly AG received a report stating that several Kaiju had entered the western region of the neutralization Zone Kafka hibino was aign to this area so now it was his time to shine meanwhile at the temporary base of their headquarters kfka was being closely watched by the researchers and experts brought by Esau also present were higher-ups who disagreed with Esau's decision to spare the life of Kaiju number8 at last the first antitype Kaiju Kafka would fight arrived KFA used a partial transformation because he felt he didn't yet need to use his full strength he also Incorporated the 1% power from their uniform to jump high and punch hard however his attacks seemed to have no effect on the Kaiju the Kaiju attacked him using its mouth flinging him away but Kafka quickly recovered midair before landing the higher ups were puzzled why Kafka had not yet transformed into Kaiju number8 it turns out kafa was hesitant to reveal his full Kaiju form due to what happened in his last fight with Esau he was afraid of losing control over his own body again suddenly the Kaiju shot acid from its mouth but thankfully he was able to dodge it the acid was so powerful that it quickly dissolved the concrete floor Kafka realized that this was not the time to fight half-heartedly as he needed to do everything to achieve his goal of joining Mina so he began to transform and high energy readings were detected from him however the transformation process suddenly halted Midway Kafka and the researchers were puzzled as to why this happened this gave a big opening to the enemy who hit him hard causing even the debris behind them to shatter Kafka tried to transform again but nothing happened no matter how hard he tried the situation was pretty anticlimactic and even the shom Mia father and daughter were worried about him it was very sudden and unexpected and they had no idea what was happening then suddenly another separate reading appeared in their area due to its strength it was likely a hanu narumi and a speculated that the leader of the Kaiju might now reveal itself when they asked about the location of the reading they learned it was coming directly from Ben benath kafka's location Kaiju number n emerged from underground riding an ant Kaiju and its main target was Kafka Kafka was stunned to see Kaiju number nine emerge from the head of ant Kaiju narumi Ai and Karu grew anxious when they confirmed that the leader of the Kaiju Army had indeed appeared Kaiju number n's gaze upon the area was deep and intense he was searching for Kaiju number eight whom he had sensed just moments before however failing to locate him he realized that Kafka might be his human form Kafka became worried upon learning that like him the enemy had the ability to detect fellow Kaiju suddenly he was struck by a bullet in his left shoulder it turned out that the enemy planned to torture him until he revealed his Kaiju form Kafka rised in pain pondering whether he could transform now narumi inquired about the status of kafka's transformation into Kaiju number eight at the headquarters but unfortunately Kafka was still unable to transform Vice Captain AG panicked fearing that they might completely lose Kaiju number8 narumi quickly took action to help Kafka personally but the ground beneath him suddenly shook the road collapsed and a large ant type Kaiju emerged From Below moreover there was another Kaiju reading with it a top its head another Kaiju number n emerged which was utterly unexpected and shocked everyone narumi wondered whether Kaiju number n had the ability to clone itself given the situation Ren realized that narumi could not help Kafka so she decided to assist him herself however she too was suddenly unable to leave because she had a large Kaiju to fight this Kaiju was one of the ones they had killed earlier apparently like the third division had experienced the Kaiju corpses suddenly revived all at once and if this was indeed similar to what had happened before it meant that the fortitude of the revived Kaiju was even greater what's worse the strength of the Kaiju they were now fighting had increased significantly all the disadvantages they were facing began to accumulate when Kaiju number 9 arrived after Kaiju number n had revived the Kaiju and deployed stronger ones to keep them all busy he set his sights on Kafka to kill him and steal the power of Kaiju number eight kfka was helpless against the enemy's rapid fire bullets and the Ant type Kaiju gave him no chance to stand the enemy was immensely strong and dangerous and he needed to kill it immediately so he tried to transform again but to no avail he grew frustrated with himself and despaired as he could not understand what was happening to him Kaiju number n had prepared an overwhelming number of bullets and bid farewell to Kafka who had nowhere to run but just in time an ally arrived to rescue Kafka Kaiju number n was suddenly split in half bewildered by the source of the attack it turns out that karoo was our heroine besides splitting the enemy she also knocked down the ant type Kaiju it was riding Kafka felt a sense of relief when he saw karoo the enemy while regenerating sensed something familiar about the girl but karoo simply told him it was no longer important to remember who she was because she was here to finish him off the enemy who was regenerating and karoo who was focusing stared at each other for a moment before Esau could leave his chair Itami quickly restrained him Itami knew that Esau planed to deploy himself in the battle using weaponized Kaiju number two should Kaiju number 8 go berserk again however Itami reminded him that using the weaponized Kaiju reduced his lifespan by several years years each time Isa assured at Tomi that he had not forgotten that fact indeed he viewed this crisis as a valuable test for the next generation of Defense Force commanders when Karo learned that Kafka was still unable to transform she suspected that Kaiju number n might be responsible for suppressing it the enemy then launched a devastating attack that had previously injured karoo but karoo had significantly improved since then and could now Dodge the project Iles from Kaiju number n the two formulated a plan Karo planned to strike the enemy hard again and when it regenerated after being wounded Kafka should be ready to try to transform again there might be a brief opening for Kafka to unleash his power while the enemy used energy to regenerate reluctantly Karo admitted to Kafka that she needed the help of Kaiju number 8 to defeat the enemy thus they began their assault the enemy displeased with facing the two of them alone split into two separate bodies which greatly surprised karoo the enemy reigned bullets on them again Karo managed to Parry the bullets aimed at her while kafa dodged most of them despite karo's experience in her previous battle with Kaiju number n she still struggled to predict its moves as they fought another Kaiju prepared to flank her from behind the enemy fired bullets again but this time all the the bullets were focused on karoo who struggled to dodge and Parry consequently she was hit in the stomach area kfka shouted in extreme concern for karoo especially as the enemy targeted her for its next attack but in a blink of an eye karoo suddenly appeared in front of the enemy's face the enemy was startled by her strength speed and resilience in fighting him karoo tired of her previous losses was now determined to be the savior of the day she battered the enemy severely due to her extreme speed and power Itami could see how much her skills had improved he even compared Karo to her mother Kari Shoma who looked just like her and was also a formidable defense Force officer Kari was the former second division captain of the Defense Force she fought like a true valkyri and was also the user of weaponized Kaiju number four she was very famous and often appeared on TV imagine how incredibly proud Karo was of her mother when Hikari returned home exhausted from work at night Karo always greeted her eagerly excited to be with her her father isau would tell her not to disturb her mother while she rested but no matter how tired Hikari was she always found the strength and time to rough play with her daughter karoo told her mother that her classmates had seen her on TV earlier at school her mother asked asked if anyone was hurt in the morning incident according to the news Karo said no her mother was delighted and relieved to hear that when Hikari put Karo down her daughter noticed a hidden injury on her mother's arm her mother excused it by saying that she had fought a strong Kaiju earlier but was not badly hurt out of nowhere karoo suddenly declared her desire to join the Defense Force to protect her mother from harm her parents looked at each other surprised by their precious little girl's fortitude her mother smiled and told karoo that she would also save her when she was in danger however due to a series of cataclysms brought by the notorious Kaiju number six hiari died on duty the whole country mourned and all who loved her without her sacrifice many more people would have died at the hands of Kaiju number six karoo was filled with self-reproach and called herself a liar because she had not managed to SA her mother from danger she tried to cry to her father for Comfort but when she saw the intense pent up anger in his eyes she restrained herself from crying as she fought Kaiju number nine she remembered her last promise to her mother that in exchange for her failure to save her she would continue to strengthen herself to ensure that she would not let any person come to harm and she would not allow a comrade to die on any Mission she was part of karo's memories of her mother give her strength Beyond her limits she delivered an incredibly powerful horizontal slash but Kaiju number n dodged it however there was a problem karoo was targeted by the ant Kaiju from below who prepared explosive bullets leaving her no ground to stand on and putting her in a dangerous situation fortunately Kafka still had enough strength left to sweep the enemy off balance he saved karoo but at the cost of further injuring his left leg however that brief moment was enough for karoo to recover and prepare her next move Squadron style ax technique number six DaRuMa dropper this technique was effective releasing multiple side slashes from top to bottom like a tornado afterwards Karu yelled at Kafka because it was time for him to try transforming into Kaiju number eight again while the enemy still needed time to regenerate but when he tried to transform again his Consciousness was suddenly transported to a realm inside his mind where he was with the Kaiju that had entered his body he was startled and suddenly received a vision where he successfully transformed however the outcome was Grim he suddenly saw that he had just killed karoo and when he looked behind he saw the corpses of his comrades and friends when he returned to his human form he saw that there was blood on his hands his attempt to transform into Kaiju number8 was a fail failure again but now they knew that it wasn't Kaiju number9 suppressing this but his own fear since their plan didn't work the enemy had regenerated and quickly prepared two large powerful explosive bullets both Kafka and kikuro received one each neither could Dodge and the bullets destroyed karo's giant axe which he had used to block the bullets while kfot took the full force of the attack kfot told karoo that he had realized the real reason he couldn't transform it was because of his own fear of the Kaiju completely absorbing his Consciousness and the fear of all his allies Dying by his hands but karoo suddenly asked him if his problem was really that simple she felt deeply insulted by Kafka statement while karoo showed him her resilience in battle how could he say that so casually Kafka fell silent as he realized his flawed way of thinking his fear also meant he was underestimating Karo Mina hasha Reno and the entire Squat and the worst part he was underestimating his own abilities as karoo remembered her mother she couldn't accept kafka's low regard for the Defense Force finding it deeply insulting kfka knelt down and cried at karo's words he couldn't believe he had forgotten the power Karo possessed who even promised to kill him if he lost control of the Kaiju he realized he needed to believe and trust all his squadmates encouraged by this Kafka shouted with great force like a Superion Kaiju number 9 and karoo looked at him as Kafka had now successfully transformed into Kaiju number 8 let's revisit the fight of the other Defense Force members on the front line against the numerous resurrected ant type Kaiju Ag and ren are struggling to breakthrough due to the overwhelming number of enemies but at least they received news from the neutral ization Zone that Kafka has finally transformed according to narumi because of this it's time to move on to phase two of the operation meanwhile Ren questioned whether their decision to send karoo to Kafka was correct finally the duo of Kafka and karoo faced off against Kaiju number n the enemy correctly suspected that Kafka was Kaiju number 8 suddenly the enemy shouted in a way that carried a sonic wave and managed to Res the Kaiju that Karo had just defeated but what was worse the resurrected Kaiju now sported new Wings the enemy evolved into a stronger form and it seemed karoo was having trouble but suddenly Kafka thanked her and admitted he still didn't fully trust himself however he had no doubt that he could fully trust his squadmates Karo somewhat cutely agreed kfka then asked her if she could take care of all the resurrected ant type Kaiju karoo agreed to the plan but jokingly warned Kafka that he had better defeat the Kaiju boss because if not she herself would kill him Kafka confidently responded and ran straight towards Kaiju number n while Karo provided cover fire for him kfka continued to Sprint towards the enemy who even taunted back saying he was now stronger and his skin harder to penetrate but Kafka didn't care about the taunts and kept charging forward the the enemy deployed two giant cannons and aimed them directly at kfka to kill him but in a blink of an eye kfka suddenly appeared on the other side holding the enemy's core the speed of his attack even caused a large hole in the body of the ant type Kaiju Kaiju number n was shocked by the Swift turn of events however it turned out that the core Kafka was holding actually belong to the ant type Kaiju that number nine was riding kfka showed his Cockiness and told the enemy that he already knew the real location of his core inside the ant type Kaiju number nine couldn't believe kfka figured this out so quickly and immediately Unleashed a barrage of attacks out of nervousness but Kafka punched away all the bullets coming at him no sweat he also realized that he hadn't yet used the full power of the Kaiju inside him and ironically it was when the Kaiju controlled his body that he learned how to use his own body better so now in The Duel of the the two- numbered Kaiju kafka's Newfound strength was clearly evident he moved even faster using the boosters under his saws and could almost instantly flank the Enemy Number Nine momentarily thought he had predicted number Eight's moves but when he fired a straight shot KFA suddenly leaped up into the air following this he used the boosters in his feet to descend with intense Force directly towards number nine the enemy froze in fear when he saw he had no chance to Dodge or escape from kafka's approaching attack the enemy couldn't figure out what had changed in Kafka but all he knew was that the power of Kaiju number eight had multiplied tremendously giving him a powerful punch overflowing with immense strength the enemy and the Ant type Kaiju were crushed as well as the ground itself the force received was so strong it seemed as if a meteor had fallen from outer space Karo Esa and the entire group of researchers were shocked by the intensity of the attack that Kafka Unleashed using Kaiju number 8 Itami was incredibly impressed by this smiling as if he had calmly won the lotto in the rubble Kaiju number n was attempting to reemerge but it seemed unlikely since it could no longer regenerate especially after its core sustained damage as an emergency measure it needed to fuse together with its Other Self that had split from it earlier thus it telepathically called its beta to come to its Aid immediately however beta was also busy fighting narumi and neither could afford to leave their duel for number nine beta it was crucial to continue learning by observing and analyzing narumi's moves securing KFA in case he went berserk remained a priority for the first division they did not want to leave this responsibility to Kiku alone to reach Kafka quickly narumi decided to unleash 98% of his suits combat power confident he could quickly defeat Kaiju number9 beta headquarters immediately declared the battle location a restricted area due to narumi's full release of power narumi prepared to deliver his ultimate attack while his opponent also prepared to intensely observe and study narumi's actions number nine beta took the initial hit from narumi which involved long-distance gun weapons narumi then continued to rain down more bullets mixing in close range slashes into his attack sequence number nine beta received a devastating combination of long and close- range attacks from a single individual suddenly he managed to dodge all of narumi's subsequent attacks narumi and the researchers couldn't believe what the opponent had achieved narumi prepared for another powerful slash but was shocked when number nine beta easily dodged and positioned itself for a Counterattack only then did the Defense Force realized that the opponent could adapt based on the data collected during battle fortunately narumi dodged the opponent's powerful Counterattack just in time but the battle was not over yet a multi-directional attack from Kaiju explosives now surrounded him apparently Kaiju number n could extend its body like extra long limbs using the bodies of an Kaiju the opponent then detonated all the explosives at once causing a massive explosion headquarters worried about narumi and were annoyed to learn that the opposing Kaiju was evolving during the battle their situation was worse than what the third division had previously experienced it was challenging to face an opponent that could study your abilities and adapt to your weaknesses the adaptability of Kaiju number9 was likened to how a virus behaves according to atami they were now facing a major threat as this was the first time they had encountered such a Kaiju type suddenly narumi shouted over the comms from headquarters reassuring everyone that he was okay and that everything would be fine because he was still more dangerous as a human than the Kaiju opponent Kaiju number n beta was stunned to see that narumi had not sustained a single wound meanwhile Esau remained calm knowing narumi had not yet shown his true capabilities this was just a warm-up for narumi who was now in the mood to to hunt Kaiju narumi's eyes emitted a strange figure resembling a cross or a fourleaf clover which frighten the opponent he couldn't believe that a human possessed the eyes of a Kaiju before he could finish his sentence he suddenly had a large hole in his chest he thought he had mastered narumi's attack so he was puzzled as to why he didn't see it coming unknown to him narumi was using rt001 this was the first weaponized numbered Kaiju derived from the retina of Kaiju number one it gave narumi eyes with super enhanced x-ray vision Kaiju number nine couldn't accept the truth it didn't make sense to him that after studying narumi's same move sets he still couldn't Dodge them he knew narumi hadn't shown increased speed but it felt like he was receiving attacks from narumi before he could even move Esau confirmed number Nine's suspicion as narumi's eyes possessed future sight These Eyes could see signals emitted by a life form's brain and red signals sent to the motor neurons of the body to predict anticipated moves according to early historical records of the Defense Force Kaiju number one was a terrifying opponent because of its unavoidable attacks with this power now in narumi's hands he could easily locate the core of the opposing Kaiju Kaiju number n panicked as he no longer had enough time to study narumi's move movements narumi then used the Squadron style bayonet technique number two / Salvo this was a complex technique involving a powerful combo of slashes and bullets that easily dismembered and destroyed the bodies of Kaiju once again number n beta experienced his body getting cut in half and the composure that narumi and Eau shows right now is very reassuring narumi then Unleashed another series of spinning slashes to finish finish off the opponent in a very cool manner following this headquarters announced that narumi and Kaiju number8 had successfully exterminated Kaiju number n with the hanju defeated the revived and evolved ant type Kaiju also began to perish the Defense Force officers celebrated their Victory Esau was about to remind everyone that the battle wasn't over yet but his daughter preempted him on the comms urging them not to celebrate yet as there were still remaining yoju that needed to be quickly eliminated the chief was amazed by the natural leadership and fortitude shown by his daughter Karo Itami also recognized this noting karo's improvements he mentioned that narumi had also shown improvements in fact he was always surprised by the talents and growth of the younger generation as they consistently surpassed his expectations AG also had opinions on their success he was very impressed that they managed to defeat the opponent even though they faced to hanju and to top it all off they managed to keep their casualties to a minimum they quickly eliminated all the remaining yoju realizing the chief's vision of building a powerful Defense Force capable of handling every threat kfka transformed back into his human form and he and his friend Karo shared a mutual Joy over their successful Mission with a fist bump Esau spoke over the Toms addressing the three Heroes of the battle narumi Kafka and Karo saying well done karoo was surprised to hear this and when she looked at Kafka he also gave her a thumbs up of approval it was rare for karoo to hear a compliment from her father so her face turned red and she was almost moved to tears with joy Isa then ordered them to ensure the area was safe to secure the safety of the residents as the off officers prepared for the next order narumi contemplated because he had a bad feeling he remembered what the enemy had said to Kafka earlier it was easy to understand why the enemy wanted to kill Kaiju number8 but the other reason he mentioned and how he delivered it was unclear while trying to analyze the enemy's words they suddenly received emergency CS from headquarters out of nowhere there was another Kaiju reading in their area then the Kaiju corpse of number number N9 Alpha which Kafka had defeated suddenly spoke saying it still had time to make a clutch move it regretted not managing to kill Kaiju number eight but it still hoped to achieve its second goal of stealing great Kaiju power KFA wondered what it meant then suddenly karoo heard panic over the comms from the headquarters base it turns out that another body of Kaiju number n was still alive and would suddenly emerge inside the HQ base where Esau was the base is the new Target now because it is where weaponized Kaiju number two is located including its only compatible user when Kaiju number n revealed his secondary goal to Kafka Kafka realized that all the battles were merely a diversion because number n's true main goal was to obtain the Kaiju power of number two which was with isau thus the version of Kaiju number9 that appeared at the HQ base was actually his true main body kfka promptly reported his Discovery to narumi realizing that they had only been fighting decoys narumi and Kafka rushed to the headquarters as the life of director General Isa Shoma was now in grave danger upon learning this Karo Esau's daughter quickly went to see her father her happiness turning into intense worry in an instant the fear and anxiety were evident on the faces of the Personnel at HQ so when he ordered every everyone to evacuate they promptly ran however as people scrambled Kaiju number n fired a powerful shot that was going to hit several people the impact was tremendous but no one was injured because Esau quickly intervened using the case of the Kaiju weapon as a shield once he realized that the true Target was the weaponized Kaiju number two he called a Tommy and another high-ranking official with an ey patch named najaka he instructed the to ensure everyone evacuated safely while he confronted the enemy alone initially nazaka was reluctant to leave because he wanted to help the general but atami convinced him that they would only be a hindrance if they joined the fight now he opened the case he was carrying and unleashed the weaponized Kaiju number two as number nine stretched he expressed disbelief at how quickly his beta and gamma versions which were equivalent to his previous weaker version had been defeated so quickly the general remembered his goal to create a division so powerful it could defeat all future Kaiju threats but he hadn't anticipated such a rapid evolution of the enemy The Duel between Kaiju number n and the director General then began number nine through a straight right punch and Esau countered with a straight left their fists clashing and causing an explosion that emitted a bright and powerful light Itami hurried the evacuation to avoid personel being caught in the intense fight he noticed that Kaiju number n was now stronger than the report they had received from the third division however he believed that Esau could still handle him in his current state suddenly number nine landed a powerful punch on isau driving him into the ground Itami and nazaka were deeply concerned when they saw Isa bloodied his entire left arm destroyed by the Enemy Number Nine wondered to himself self why he had become so much stronger the Tommy was alarmed and the general was furious at the unexpected strength of his opponent number nine then delivered a devastating downward punch with three levels of speed aimed at the prone Esau surprisingly Esau managed to raise his right fist strengthened by fond memories of his wife and daughter Esau vowed to kill Kaiju number nine that very day meanwhile narumi tried to contact headquarters but their network was down leaving him worried about the ongoing situation with the general who continued to fight while his Personnel evacuated despite being at a disadvantage Esau remained determined as the enemy regenerated continuously while his left arm was injured his assistant informed him that all Personnel had evacuated and it was time for him to do the same however Esau replied that escaping was pointless as the enemy could easily track him down but his loyal assistant still had a chance to escape after a moment of silence the assistant decided to stay and fight alongside isau no matter the outcome appreciating this he accepted his assistance resilience and they prepared to face the enemy together the assistant noticed that the general plan to use the full release of his Kaiju weapon aware that the more power used The more stress it put on the user's body still given the situation it was worth it for the next level of power that emerged resembling a Dau but in human form with the full release activated their fists collided again producing a powerful shock wave felt by his assistant the power of the fully released Kaiju weapon number two was immense however they were both shocked that it was still not enough to defeat the enemy and Esa even sustained damage to his right arm instead of feeling pain or fear number nine was excited to experience the power of number two firsthand the general planted his right foot firmly on the ground to deliver a powerful right uppercut known as Squadron style combat technique number four Rising blast he immediately followed it with technique Number One Barrage blast Landing a direct hit on the enemy's cheek the impact strength was evident as the head of number nine was completely obliterated from its body yet it still spoke asking Esau for more demonstrations which surprised him next they exchanged a series of punches and Unleashed a barrage of attacks on each other due to the enemy's immense strength Esau's assistant bypassed the circuits of Esau's right arm to unleash even greater power however he faced a problem with every punch he delivered he realized he was not as strong as he had been in his prime years when he fought side by side with his wife picari he suddenly felt intense pain as a punch landed on his body he had sustained chest damage which further weakened his power output prompting his assistant to activate the recovery mode of his suit despite the onslaught of punches from the enemy that forced Esau on the defensive his suit's recovery capabilities could not keep up with the damage received so he then confidently spoke to his assistant kurusu stressing the need to be resilient so they could together defeat the their current foe especially since it was unlikely that any help would arrive in time it was time to unleash their full offensive power and set aside the suit's defensive capabilities as remaining defensive would only lead to their demise using the muscle fibers of Kaiju number two the general took over his body to force the repair of his left arm kurusu warned that this was dangerous and very risky and it would likely render Esau incapable of fighting after their battle but Esau was determined and at peace trusting in the next generation of promising officers of the Defense Force at this singular moment in the battle he was willing to risk his life to kill Kaiju number n he understood what his wife Hikari had felt when she sacrificed her life to kill Kaiju number six as the enemy launched another downward punch Esau saw flashback his wife could not believe their daughter Karo also wanted to join the Defense Force but Esau thought it natural for karoo given that both her parents were officers Hikari teased him noticing that Isa was also pleased when he heard karo's cute way of expressing her intention although happy they could not ignore the dangerous and risky nature of their jobs if karoo were to truly follow her dreams Hikari planned to harden her heart to train her daughter intensely so she could survive thus they would also need to switch roles with the general providing the love and affection necessary to balance their daughter's upbringing back to the present this memory sparked tremendous power within the general he managed to catch the punch from the enemy he knew he had been stingy with his daughter in giving attention love and affection the readings of his power levels were now extremely high due to his heightened emotions especially since his primary goal was to eliminate the powerful enemy before him this was for the future of his beloved daughter to lessen the severe threat she would face as an officer of the Defense Force the super strong punch Esau delivered caused a massive hole in the enemy nearly obliterating it Esau's eyes blazed with emotion for his daughter and the cherished memories of his late wife these gave him the strength to unleash a powerful directed energy attack the Tomy vividly remembered that what Esau had done was the same ultimate attack used by Kaiju number two to destroy the entire city of saporo due to its immense power Esau's body likely couldn't handle it Kaiju number n was nearly depleted and its teeth were shattered this exposure finally revealed its core in the chest area however it gleefully claimed to have evolved enough to protect itself in such situations number nine began to shape shift while while absorbing the heavy impact from Esau kurusu noticed that this was a full-on defensive form of the enemy initially cocky the enemy was shocked and anxious when it realized Esau had a second attack to deliver disbelieving the enemy did not expect such power from a human Esau's eyes widened in Fury as he threw another punch so powerful it knocked the defensively poised enemy back the attack penetrated the enemy like a power powerful laser beam striking a building in the area and causing it to fragment and collapse from a closer angle this shocking event was felt by all evacuees including Kafka Kafka confused about the source of the explosion suddenly noticed narumi beside him the two exchanged worried glances for Esau and their comrades and hurried to the headquarters together kurusu though injured managed to stand and quickly assess Esau's condition he sent his drone to Esau's location he found Esau seemingly drained of strength and unable to move standing before The Battered remains of Kaiju number9 suddenly a silhouette of number n's head emerged from its rounded body even managing to speak the enemy praised Esau's effort for completely crushing its body even in fully powered up defensive form number nine fully dissolved and kurusu was pleased pleased with what he saw however From the Ashes the core and inner body of the enemy remained intact beginning to regenerate the enemy remarked that if Esau had been a Kaiju rather than human he would have already won their fight kurusu panicked and urged isau to fall back but Esau intent only on forcing another powerful attack from his body did not respond kurusu tearful with worry and fear watched as Kaiju number nine called on number two the enemy began absorbing number two cells sprouting multiple limbs with mouths targeting Esau and his Kaiju weapon as the smoke cleared from the battlefield Kafka and narumi arrived finding Esau standing at top the corpse of Kaiju number n The Narrative briefly shifts to a flashback narumi recalled that Esau had previously informed him of his plans to retire from combat once he complet Ed forming the strongest division of the Defense Force at the time of his stepping down Esau intended to pass the torch to narumi along with the heavy responsibility of being the Defense Force director General narumi and kfka noticed Esau staring blankly into space initially thinking he was okay kfka quickly sensed something a Miss using his ability to sense Kaiju Kafka warned narumi about their immediate threat the figure before was not Esau but the enemy preparing a powerful attack from Kaiju number two narumi was stunned to realize they had missed saving Esau and had failed in their rescue kaijun number n released the main burst the strongest laser beam attack from Kaiju number two narumi and Kafka dodged but still felt the intensity of the attack which caused a massive bright explosion accompanied by a powerful shock wave kfka was thrown back but land Ed safely unable to believe the enemies displayed power he questioned if this was still the Kaiju number n he had previously fought sensing it as a different kind of monster this new evolved form of Kaiju number9 now had six eyes having stolen the bodies of Esau and Kaiju number two after recovering from the attack narumi immediately searched for Esau using his CS to his shock the enemy responded claiming to have killed Esau infused with him Kafka and narumi enraged by the news were soon joined by Karo from above who could not accept the enemy's claim as the daughter of Esau in disbelief she attacked the enemy kfka was surprised to find karoo joining the fight especially when Kaiju number n transformed the left side of its face back to Esau to prove its claim karoo was visibly shocked and Kafka felt helpless to save her from the devastating news as the enemy prepared another main burst narumi charged at it activating his foresight powers and questioning what had been done to his mentor he used his inescapable attack which number nine already knew was the technique he used to kill his beta followed by the Squadron style bayonet technique number one vowing for the sake of his mentor that he would not let the enemy escape and he will make sure that the enemy will die by his own hands despite the enemy apoll izing and attempting to flee with wings resembling those of a fly narumi was in disbelief that it even had the audacity to say goodbye the enemy explained it was experiencing adverse side effects from the recent Fusion disappointed narumi quickly vanished and leaped directly above the enemy delivering an inescapable diving attack determined not to let it Escape however the enemy spoke again acknowledging narumi's Effectiveness in combat against smaller numbers but questioning his chances against an opponent with high defensive stats caught off guard the enemy caught narumi's weapon with its left hand it prepared to unleash an energy blast from its mouth but Kaiju number eight intervened to assist narumi Kofa demanded the return of their director General attacking the enemy with a powerful left punch the enemy having adapted to number Eight's tactics seemed unfaced kfka and narumi were now facing a new evolved enemy vastly different from the Kaiju number n they knew presenting them with an unprecedented challenge karoo kept on weeping as she came across in the face of the enemy who had killed her father yet she could only painfully watch the fierce battle between Kafka and narumi versus Kaiju number n the two gave everything they had using their strength and speed to try to take down the enemy yet they couldn't land a decisive blow despite despite their combined efforts the enemy still managed to keep them at Bay and fling them aside when the enemy had a few seconds of resit it immediately attempted to fly away however it was immobilized because a flow of Kaiju blood from its right shoulder revealed a sustained injury Kafka and narumi quickly noticed this and relentlessly attacked the enemy to prevent its escape the enemy's entire arm was destroyed due to narumi's unescapable attack on the injured area the adverse effects of its newly fused body significantly reduced its defense stats as it could not Harden facing Kaiju number eight the enemy was at a disadvantage as it was vulnerable to punches that shattered its body further preventing its escape the battle was emotionally charged as Esau had just died and Kafka knew the deep impact on Karo now facing the prospect of being orphaned kfka himself was deeply affected in ious fueled by his emotions he delivered a powerful right hook that devastated the enemy's body the enemy struggled with proper regeneration pondering its options for a timely Escape Kaiju number n had accumulated numerous wounds and injuries and Kafka and narumi were close to delivering the final blow needed to exterminate it however the enemy had one more move reserved for such a situation it charged a powerful force force from its core felt intensely by Kafka and narumi upon release this released a massive AE attack impacting the area far from karoo who worried for her comrades now Airborne Kaiju number n's own attack had shattered its own midriff leaving only its head torso and wings intact having reached its limit it nearly destroyed its newly acquired body of Esau to its surprise Kafka and narum survived its powerful attack before they could finish it the enemy devised a last ditch move its head split into two each part charging an energy blast narumi's foresight revealed the targeted long-distance attacks aimed at kurusu and Karu who were not far from them narumi and Kafka rushed to save the targets from the impending attack while Kaiju number n used Esau's left eye to ridicule them about their human instincts to save lives it Bid Farewell to Kafka while wearing Esau's entire face as it flew away it declared that when he comes back it will be the fourth coming of the era of the Kaiju Kaiju number n disappeared and sadly Kafka narumi and Karu failed to save isau and neutralize their enemy standing broken and defeated Kafka and narumi at least managed to save Karu and kurusu Kafka couldn't shake off the last words of number nine resonating with anger at the enemy wearing Esau's face as it said it out of furious rage he screamed loudly on the top of his lungs the whole Defense Force faced a significant defeat that day but the war wasn't over and they needed to remain strong 2 Days Later the public was informed about the tragic fate of the director general of the Defense Force who died in the line of duty he was a true hero who had saved so many lives for more than 30 years of Public Service bringing profound grief to everyone and most especially to his very organization everyone in the Defense Force attended Esau's Funeral Service the first second third and fourth divisions with atami and nazaka in disbelief over the loss of a brilliant General and close comrade atami led the military funeral firing ceremony and everyone cried to tears for Esau meanwhile Ker stayed alone in the late director General's office overwhelmed by sadness and unable to attend the funeral kofka understood karo's immense grief now being fully orphaned Captain narumi visited Karo in the office to inquire if she was sure about missing her father's funeral service karoo responded with frustration about feeling useless regretting not making it in time to even see her own father fight for their lives but more regrettably not being strong enough enough to have saved her father narumi sympathized with her feelings assuring her not to blame herself as none of it was her fault karoo filled with mixed emotions tearfully told narumi that she wanted to become stronger she believed her father's Consciousness was still trapped within Kaiju number n and she would only start mourning once the Defense Force neutralized their enemy after wallowing she apologized for her absence and for failing to control her emot ions in front of her Captain narumi understood karo's strong will and advised her that the important thing for her now was to strengthen herself so that when they next face the enemy she would be nearly as strong as narumi he promised to teach her everything Esau had taught him focusing only on results Karo accepted Captain narumi's words and agreed while Kafka who had been eavesdropping outside the office was also determined to grow stronger for their next encounter with with Kaiju number n yet Kafka now faced a new troubling problem a small part of his right hand seemed to have permanently become part of his Kaiju form he momentarily set this concern aside because his more pressing goal was to ensure he could beat number n in their next encounter in the next scene we move to the location of the Defense Forces Skirmish against the ant Kaiju where monster sweeper ink has begun to clean up the remains toku commented that the shells of these creatures are too tough for their chainsaws to handle since they cannot economize with a heat chainsaw they decided to cut off the joints and Destroy them in the bunker toku also noticed that while doing this work they seemed like ants in that situation we see what he means and it indeed looks like the workers of monster sweeper in are ants while dissecting the ant Kaiju akataka paused briefly wondering what would happen to them there since Isa who was once an invincible hero in his childhood had been defeated toku overheard him discussing preparations for a cluster type catastrophe caused by monster number n with some people already evacuating out of the country thus they also need to hurry and evacuate toku was annoyed by this and declared that he wouldn't run from there and asked who would clean up the carcasses after the Defense Force defeats number nine if they all fled iitaka and Mory were shocked and toku walked away from them kataka commented that sometimes toku is cool even though he is a drunkard and gambling addict who owes him $500 which again annoyed toku because he overheard them in his mind toku expressed his unyielding faith in the Defense Force of Japan and his friend Kafka we then move to the araki coastal base where karoo is sparring with Ren using a wooden staff while matching moves with Ren Ren quickly disrupted her Rhythm gaining the upper hand karoo thought about how skilled their platoon lead leader was at gaining distance from her opponent understanding how she manages to stand on the battlefield wielding a large Gatling gun narumi watching from the sidelines commented that he was getting bored and wondered when karoo would reach the level where he could be her opponent irritating karoo narumi explained that all platoon leaders in the first unit have the potential to be commanders in the future and within roughly 1 month until he clears the game he is playing Karo needs to surpass all of them if she is not a prodigy of that level she won't make it in time narumi intensely announced that they were about to start the game when suddenly AG kicked him and told him to start working instead karoo called over Ren and asked if they could Spar again making Ren think that karoo was really planning to defeat their seniors there within a month Ren agreed thinking that when the newbies try to power up like that even the seniors get hyped up while this was happening AG asked narumi if he made a decision about what to do with monster number eight now that EA was gone it was up to narumi to decide whether they would accept number eight as part of their military strength suddenly their earpieces rang and they were informed that there was a report regarding monster number eight upon reaching cfa's location they discovered that his monsterization was progressing AG looked shocked while narumi just stared there was an area of cf's body that hadn't returned to Human in form and since there was no precedent they couldn't declare anything but if kfka continued to transform like this he might not be able to return to Being Human which surprised AG in the next scene kfka was on a rooftop sitting and thinking that the Defense Force probably knew about his hand and he wondered if they would still let him fight regardless he thought about not wanting to see his comrades hurt anymore so he decided to defeat number nine then narumi arrived and sat on the bench next to him they were silent for a moment feeling each other out and then narumi said he would get straight to the point he explained that he couldn't keep Kafka in the Defense Force knowing the reason why if Kafka continued to transform there was a chance he might not return to Being Human he said he couldn't allow someone in that condition to fight kfka had no choice but to agree thinking to himself that he knew it would come to this but as he was pondering his situation Umi suddenly said keeping that in mind he had something more to say to Kafka narumi then grabbed kafka's clothing and told him to lend them his strength the surprise was evident on kafka's face and his eyes widened narumi said who cares if Kafka becomes a monster permanently all he would need to do he explained is to kill Kafka when the time comes but he didn't care about that what he wanted to do was to kill number nine no matter what it takes he asked Kafka if he wasn't thinking along the same lines narumi stated that their true feelings of regret could only be understood by people like them who were there at the scene he was sure that stopping was not the answer for kfka narumi extended his hand and kfka mentioned that he had a goal he was aiming to reach their Chief had overcome all objections and had paved the way for him to reach that goal after that kavkas seriously agreed with narumi's wishes and declared that he was ready narumi looked at him and as he walked away included him in his plans saying that from here on they would be the ones to act in tachikawa Tokyo at the Defense Force Base we go to room number 36 where hasha is apparently talking to someone he finally said that the person he was talking to was awake and seemed to have slept soundly it turned out that the individual he was speaking to was Kaiju number 10 which they had placed in an incub hasha was intensely observing the monster that had attacked his soldiers in the third unit
