(A/N. SAME THING FOR THIS CHAPTER.)

Moving down into the valley of the crater they soon reached the metallic constructions of MechaGodzillaCity. The scale of this city was very huge no matter where you looked. They also came across a lot of dead drake bodies that were bored through metal lances and just vegetated on them.

"Why would a weapon that was constructed for killing Godzilla establish a city?", asked Darc the two Bilusaludo while walking past those spikes.

They both looked at him and were a little bit stunned by that question. It was a very reasonable one to ask. "Well, to know the answer we need to find the core that is sending us the signal. But my suggestion is that it needed to prepare itself and rebuild its own body.", said Galu-Gu.

´That is pretty fishy to me´, thought Darc and frowned slightly. "That makes no sense. How long did you take to build MechaGodzilla? Maybe around 15 years? Given that the earth didn't supply Mecha here with enough resources at the start and changed after let's say 5.000 years into the current earth. Then by slowly accumulating biomass. Shouldn't it have already built its body like in only a few hundred years at most? It probably could do that easily now as well. Why is it still at the stage of being a massive fortress....?", said Darc and had his doubts about these Nanites. "And don't give me something like: to compensate Godzillas growth. This city is like 10 -20 times bigger than the current Godzilla.", added Darc and looked around again.

The others also got some concerns about this and those concerns just became bigger after Darc his words.

"He consumed so much over the time.", commented Haruo on the place that looked like a graveyard of drakes.

"No wonder the Houtua use it as a weapon and mostly stay away from its source. They fear it could consume them as well. But unknown to them, they even indirectly fed this city...", commented Martin.

"Then hopefully we don't end up as food as well.", added Adam to that.

"You don't need to be so afraid. It does not attack nor consume humanoids.", said Galu-Gu.

"It only attacks the drakes because they have a very Godzilla like DNA. So it just follows its order to kill Godzilla.", added Belu-Be to the explanation after scanning something on the corpses and moving on.

"How come you are so sure about that?", asked Darc again. Those two still haven't answered his last question.

"Its because the nanometal is programmed to do that. We just checked its orders. It just simply seems to be in a dormant growth phase until it is reactivated.", said Galu-Gu.

"Reactivated? For me, this thing looks very active on its own...Also from your words, does that mean it just gave itself some orders to become bigger without asking for your permission?", asked Darc while still walking along a massive bridge. He didn't look back and thought about some things. He didn't like where this was going at all.

"Right, it connected on its own that becoming bigger was a must to succeed in the order of killing Godzilla.", nodded Belu-Be.

"Those are some strange structures...", commented Haruo.

"That facility over there looks the one where MechaGodzilla was created, right?", commented Martin.

"Yes, it has used the former lab station as a blueprint. Its many times bigger and some things seem even to be designed by the MechaGodzilla itself. That's really an evolution beyond our comprehension." , explained Galu-Gu proudly. "Oh, it looks like you can take off your helmets. The atmosphere here is engineered for our needs.", he added and opened his helmet.

Darc and Martin both checked the atmospheres data with their own tools. While Martin and the others opened their helmet, Darc did not.

"Hmm, you don't want to breathe some fresh air?", asked Belu-Be with a slight frown.

"Fresh Air? Do you mean the nanites that are floating around in it as well?" snorted Darc a little. He even increased the filtration of his suit to make sure nothing gets in it.

The two Bilusaludo stayed silent and the others just looked at each other with wry smiles. They did notice that Darc slowly became more unfriendly with the two the more they talked about this city.

They finally reached a building with a massive metal door that opened sideways. Behind it was the origin of the signal.

Galu-Gu opened it up with a code he used.

"Are you guys the only ones that can use give orders to MechaGodzilla?", asked Darc now.

"The program was written in the mother tongue of the Bilusaludo. Do you have anything against us monopolizing the usage?", asked Galu-Gu with an unfriendly tone.

Darc stared at him and moved closer. Then just like lightning, he grabbed Galu-Gu´s head and pushed him to the ground. Everyone was shocked and Belu-Be even aimed his gun at him. "Darc! What are you doing!?", shouted Belu-Be.

"I will only say this once and you listen carefully. If you ever use this metal in a way I deem is wrong, I will destroy all of this. And there will be nothing left to salvage. Letting nanites roam around freely and relying too much on them will cost you not just your humanity but makes you also an enemy to life. And about those codes. I will take them as well for safekeeping. Only having one race in a coalition have them is not very cooperative.", he said in a threatening tone and let go of Galu-Gu.

"What is wrong!? We would never use it unwisely. This is for the better.", rebuked Belu-Be.

"It's alright", said Galu-Gu. "Right now we need to focus on Godzilla. Even he knows that..."

Darc didn't say anything more and moved along inside.

"This is slowly getting out of hand...But I also feel weird standing in front of this structure. Am I the only one?", asked Yuko now and moved inside with the others.

"I feel the same.", frowned Leland. "Everything Darc said has some good points to be wary about this metal. Even if the Bilusaludo have control over it..."

---

A little bit later they reached the head of MechaGodzilla and reactivated the AI core. Then they established control and started to build a command center. They also started discussing a new plan to lure Godzilla to the city.

"Isn't that plan a little bit risky?", asked Leland. "You are basically bringing death to the only city we have now?"

"We can use every ounce of energy produced by the city if we lure him here. We also have upgraded the mechs into air combat units with massive power. We call them vultures."

Darc followed their conversation on how the plan is used and sighed after everything was done. He felt tired and went outside to think a little bit for himself.

Now after knowing about this city, he wondered about if this is the right choice. The Bilusaludo got their planet destroyed because they played too much with this metal. And Darc was very sure about that now since he read the memories of Galu-Gu. Every race had somehow played with things they shouldn't have.

Even the Exif did hide something that Darc doesn't like at all. While walking past Metphies at some point, he scanned his mind and what he found made him shocked. All his doubts were right.

So the way the Bilusaludo think is just doom. They would disregard everything for science. And the Exif would sacrifice everything to their so-called god. Two extremes clashing against each other. With that, Darc had more enemies on his list. In the end, what is this world?

There are worshippers of Mothra, worshippers of Ghidorah, the ones that created Gidan and the ones that created Godzilla. Seeing all this, who knows what will happen. Right now the only peaceful race seems to be the Houtua, but for how long is that?

Darc already thought about abandoning all this and just destroy it all. From the way Godzilla moved around, he wants to find this place anyway. So why not just give it to him and see what happens after that.

´Just destroying everything would be such an easy solution. But the Houtua don't deserve it...´, he thought.

It has been some time since Darc has been outside While letting out a sigh he watched down to the city and saw Haruo and Yuko walking around.

´Hmm?´, he thought. The two talked about something and Darc didn't bother to interrupt them. And it was a good thing because he saw them kissing. ´Well, look who found each other.´

Just at that moment Maina and Miana joined him. They both looked to Haruo and Yuko

*Oh, welcome back you two.*, he said to them and they jumped in shock to the side. They both looked at him. Seems like they didn't notice him here and got scared when he talked to them.

*Hello, Darc*, said Maina after relaxing.

*Why are you here? I thought you don't approach this place?*, asked Darc again.

*The earth is crying. The burning mountain will rise. The breath is a storm. The rage is thunder. For a long time, he governs over the power of destruction...Godzilla is coming...*

Darc frowned after hearing their words. He didn't bother denying their words since they have the connection with the egg that helps them know. *He noticed us? How...? Don't tell me...*, he said to them and looked at MechaGodzillaCity. Then he fiddled around with his omni tool. There was already an alarm given that Godzilla started moving again.

´The generated camouflage is gone. They used too much power on building stuff that the city now didn't have enough power to camouflage itself. Godzilla noticed its location now. But how? Let me see..´, thought Darc while looking at the screen and now used his ki sense.

´Damn it, the city is emitting something even I can feel now.´, thought Darc and stood up.

*You two should warn your people. Godzilla is very likely moving this way.*. he said to them.

But they shook their heads. *The elders know. They are already preparing for Godzilla to kill you all.*, Maina told him.

Darc looked at her. *Fine, then that's that. Still, being here will be dangerous. You should get somewhere safe.*, he said again and now used the omni tool to get into the communication.

being connected to the central command he started shouting "What the hell are you building that Godzilla found us? Did you forget about putting at least some energy into the camouflage?", he asked Galu-Gu.

"What? The camouflage is gone?", asked Haruo.

"That is right. We are using all the energy for our fortification right now. MechaGodzillaCity decided that itself.", said Galu-Gu

"Wait, I thought you control all this?", asked Leland.

"The ones that fused together with the city show abilities that surpass normal people by far. So they decided that it would be okay to do so.", added Belu-Be.

"What!? That´s it. If we survive I will make sure this damn nanometal will perish forever.", said Darc and cut the communication.

After cutting the channel Darc stopped suppressing his energy and flew upwards. Then he sends out his aura and felt the energy that Godzilla emitted. Looking in that direction he also could hear a massive roar already traveling through the air. Looks like Godzilla was even more agitated now that it felt Darc again.

"Well, maybe I did make it more pissed now.", commented Darc to that. Then he used a lotus sitting position in the air and started preparing some energy for the fight to come. But it didn't take long and Darc already felt an attack from Godzilla being fired.

Darc took a handful of powder from his pouch and let it fuse with some of his ki then he charged forward and build a massive barrier that had a 60-degree nook so that if the beam collided with it, it would deflect it upwards. Well, this was only a try and not yet certain that it would do jsut that. At least the powder mixed very well with his ki.

The people inside the city started getting panicky. and started dispersing that nanometal that would also deflect the beam.

The beam was fired and with the help of Darc and the nanometal, the beam was completely deflected. At least ranged attacks were useless now. Seeing that no new attack was coming Darc went back to collecting energy.

Three Vultures came out of the city and joined Darc.

"We are going to go and direct his attention to us.", said Haruo talking through the communication.

Darc nodded "Keep him busy as long as possible. Don't do anything risky. If I need to intervene just say so."

The three vulture charged away and annoyed Godzilla to go back to the route where he would be trapped for their plan. They succeeded and Godzilla paid more attention to them. Looks like the firing power of the vultures was a certain annoyance to Godzilla.

Godzilla followed them until it was back on course. The three vultures attack it again so it would once more change its path.

But Godzilla charged up energy and wanted to destroy Yuko. At the moment when he wanted to shoot his beam, a ki whip slapped G.Earth his face and the beam was shot to the side. Yuko got away unscathed.

"Thanks.", said Yuko.

"You are welcome. Now try to stay away. I lure him to the city", answered Darc back.

Godzilla cried out in anger and its slitted Eyes narrowed and focused on Darc that was now aligned with the trap for him. It charged up massive amounts of energy again like it did last time

"Yeah, right here buddy.", smiled Darc and hit him with the whip again. The whip was very long and massive so the range from which Darc could attack was out of his electric discharge radius. It disrupted him from collecting its energy and did some damage. But it's being healed very fast. "Whats wrong buddy? Cannot use your breath nor your discharge against me now?", snorted Darc and moved backward.

G.Earth started to move right at him. Its tail and fins still had electricity collected. So it shot out a smaller beam. Darc dodged that and the city deflected it.

Luring him further he was finally at the designated position where they caught him and fired from every side. When his shield was down they fired 4 EMP harpoons and discharged them. Now he only needed to explode because of the overload but that didn't happen. Godzilla slowly became hotter and even the surroundings started to melt. The Harpoons also slowly melted.

"Tsk, this bastard has also a way to get rid of an overload. He simply discharged all the energy as an area of effect attack.", frowned Darc.

"We can't stop now. Haruo lets go up and charge into Godzilla. With that, we can use ourselves as harpoons and kill this guy.", said Belu-Be. "Just accept the nanometal. It only hurts at the start.

"What the hell are you doing! Didn't I tell you if you use it like this I would destroy it? Stop it right now or I will destroy the command center.", shouted Darc and aimed a ki blast at the command center. He heard the painful cries of Yuko and Haruo through the comlink. They became hollow after some time. "Yuko...Haruo...?", he asked but no answer. The three vultures went up to do their suicide mission. "Damn it!!", shouted Darc and wanted to fire his ki blast but just at that time a nanometal spike charged behind him and bore through his abdomen. Darc "GAH!! YOU!! You are betraying everyone..."

"Darc, this is the only way we can kill Godzilla. Become one with MechaGodzillaCity!", said Galu-Gu and smiled. After that his facial expression distorted and he seemed to have died.

Darc fought on against the wound and the invading nanometal in his body. ´God damn it...I should have just...killed them all...after finding out how obsessed they were.....If I just had my powers back...´, he thought and slowly lost his consciousness. *Firefly!!* was the last thing he heard after it went dark.

---

*How is it? The taste of so many defeats? Not just by one immortal enemy but also by your own people?*, asked a voice him.

*Defeat....?* Darc thought some time. *I know nothing of a defeat...If I had my powers back it would have never come to this point...*, answered Darc.

*But your powers are only lent to you.* - the voice.

*They are not.* - Darc.

*They are not? A godly body, your unlimited potential. All your powers are based on cheating and taking shortcuts. Even most of your moves are stolen from others. Where is that not lent power?* - the voice.

*...For some, it may look like that. But I have trained hard to get where I am now. I have trained hard to reach the point where I would meet Guru. I have trained hard to surpass my limits and strengthen that body I was given. Everything I have is mine...* - Darc.

*Good. Then stand firm and fight on. For you must stand proudly in the face of death. Do not fear. Do not falter. That is the spirit of the white tiger. Carry it proudly.*, said the voice again and the image of the white tiger appeared.

*And now go, show them what it really means to be someone amongst gods. Destroy that delusional city they have. Destroy that self-proclaimed God of Destruction and that wicked God of Dimension* - Byakko.

----

Darc opened his eyes and they glimmered with a golden light. He was somewhere on the ground right now. No, it was actually not the ground but the side of MechaGodzilla. He was already so long unconcious that the city had rebuilt itself into a complete functioning MechaGodzilla.

And it was battling Ghidora and Godzilla at this very moment.

Darc looked at the spectacle that was happening and slowly looked down at himself. The nanometal encased his whole body firmly to the structural hull of MechaGodzilla. But using some force Darc could easily break it apart and was once again free.

He charged away from MechaGodzilla and also avoided one head of Ghidorah. He placed himself between all three of them and looked at them

Each of them noticed him as well and looked back.

Darc his expression was cold. He knew what he had to do now. He would push his limit to the utmost breaking point now to kill these three. He did not even bother about why there is a third bastard that joined but it didn't matter.

Darc materialized some ki rope in his hands and charged forth around Godzilla first. He tightened the ki rope around its neck and proceeded to Ghidorah´s heads and then to Mechagodzilla. At first, he couldn't get Ghidorah with the rope and he wondered why that was the case.

But he noticed that after mixing some of his godly ki into the mix, he finally could catch Ghidorah as well. So he continued on and did that more than 5 times until all three of them were completely annoyed by the rope and tried to free themselves from it.

But Darc constantly put energy into those ropes so they couldn't destroy them. The godly ki he infused was even more useful now.

Like that when he pulled on the rope he also pulled everyone together and the three behemoths were like glued together at this moment.

Darc let go the rope since now it would self sustain itself and raised his hands upwards. He breathed in and out and slowly a bluish white energy ball collected above himself.

*Whoever is still alive, lend me your energy. Raise your hands!*, he shouted out to everyone with telepathy.

Godzilla, Ghidorah, and even MechaGodzilla became agitated by that since they also heard his voice. Godzilla even shot another breath at him. But this time Darc already created a godly barrier mixed with the powder from the Houtua in front of himself and is withstanding everything that Godzilla is shooting at him right now.

With that, he slowly accumulated energy and stayed safe as long as the barrier held. And this time Godzilla really didn't stop shooting.

When the Gekidama was now finally big enough he didn't hesitate at all and threw it straight into them.

It had to fight with the beam from Godzilla but with Darc pushing it forward while shouting and charging a lot of energy it didn't take long and it collided into the three and slowly pulverized them.

At first, there was some resistance but that was slowly vanishing. Being finished with the main body, the energy slowly traveled the necks of Ghidorah and also attacked the three singularities it created. In MechaGodzillas case it jumped over to the still somewhat existing city and all other nanometal substances. And since Godzilla also was part in that mess, the energy basically exploded in all directions and slowly destroyed all wildlife and plants on the planet that had Godzilla´s DNA.

After that, the air slowly became clearer and even the sun started to shine through like normal. With that cleaning up the energy also supplied new plants with energy and old plants that once were on earth started to grow without being contaminated with Godzillas radiation.

´Wow, the God Sphere is something else entirely...Maybe that is also because I mixed Hakai into it? Well, with that most of that is also taken care of.´, thought Darc and watched the glowing energy traveling through the planet and slowly dissipating.

Then after it was all done Darc slowly descended down to the place where he saw Miana. She was placed on a cross and seemed somewhat wounded. It looked like a sacrificial place.

Darc took her down from it and lay her softly on the ground. Then he looked to Metphies. In his right eye, he had some object place into and it was constantly bleeding.

"You, what did you do to our god!?", asked Metphies him with shock.

"Your god...Is no more. And it is time you pay for what you did in the universe...all those races perished because of your nihilistic viewpoints...", answered Darc and slowly walked to him. Metphies got genuinely scared and backed up. "What is wrong? Having fears now after I killed your god completely? Well....doesn't matter.", smirked Darc and placed his finger on Memphis his forehead after reaching him. Like using a gun he simple simply blasted him dead. The weird green crystal that he used was also destroyed by Darc with him stomping on it.

´I guess that's it now.´, thought Darc after looking up at the blue sky.

*Good job. Even with your limited power you still managed to push more out of it. I will give you one day more to enjoy the time here.*, said Byakko to him via telepathy.

*Why do I need that? Just get it over with.*, sighed Darc after hearing Byakko his words.

*You sure? Look behind you.* , said Byakko once again.

Darc turned around and now saw Maina and Miana looking at him with big eyes. Seeing their shocked expressions, he smiled gently at them.

*Its alright. Just bring me back.*, said Darc to him.

*Very well, don't blame me if you regret not spending some time with them.*, chuckled Byakko and Darc slowly started to dissipate as well into small energy particles until he was gone completely.
