Chapter 363

If they stay in outer space too long, their bodies will be damaged, the cockpit temperature will drop, oxygen will run low — they won't last 2 minutes!

"The ion cannon is out of ammo! We have no countermeasures for the moment!"

Raleigh was somewhat desperate — every trick they could use had already been spent dealing with the Category 5 Kaiju, Lei Shou.

And now they can't even handle a Category 4 Otachi!

"No, there's still a way!"

Mako's expression was very serious!

Too excited, she was still speaking in District 11 dialect!

Mako has a Western face, but having grown up in District 11, and her Scarlett Johansson portrayal adds an extra touch of charm to the character.

She once learned fluent District 11 language while filming *Lost Island Nation*, which came in handy right here.

Plenty of anime-savvy film fans were thrilled!

Now that's got that anime flavor!

"Chain Sword, deploy!"

Raleigh was dumbfounded — we have this thing too?

The exoskeleton modules on Gipsy Danger's arm instantly activated, snapping together into a sharp longsword!

Both pilots in the cockpit struck a sword-raising pose at the same time! Badass to the max!

Since the female lead Mako's family was tragically killed in a Kaiju attack, this was her chance for revenge!

"Kore wa watashi no kazoku tame ni!!!"

For my family!

Sword Core, activate!

Bathed in the sunlight from the far end of the horizon, the Kaiju Otachi was split clean in two by the Chain Sword!

Cut clean in half!

Another world-famous painting is born!

The entire audience was already dumbstruck, high to the point of scalp-tingling!

Gipsy Danger, in an impossibly cool pose, sliced through the Kaiju, then plummeted from 50,000 feet, scraping the atmosphere as it fell to the ground!

Boom!

Dust flew everywhere!

Ultraman Gaia gave a thumbs-up.

Raleigh and Mako received a hero's welcome, with crowds lining the route to cheer them on.

But the joy of victory didn't last long — the base had already picked up news that more Category 5 Kaiju were crossing through the Breach!

The only two Jaegers remaining, Gipsy Danger and Striker Eureka, had to sortie immediately,

carrying a nuke to destroy the Breach.

Unfortunately, the father among the pilot father-and-son pair had an injured arm and couldn't join the mission.

In the end, the Marshal himself stepped in to take his place, piloting the Jaeger alongside his comrade's son and setting off with the nuke.

The freshly victorious Gipsy Danger provided cover nearby.

The treacherous seafloor was even more fraught with danger than the earlier shore battle — a hair's-breadth from death!

Three Category 5 Kaiju were already in position and waiting!

The film's final-act boss battle was about to erupt!

The audience hadn't even caught their breath, and now they had to take on another round of thrills!

Only this time, whether in score or in color palette, it was noticeably more oppressive than the shore fight.

That earlier moment was the height of exhilaration — now it was the height of oppression!

Every heart was lodged in their throat!

In just a single exchange, the Category 5 Kaiju's ambush ripped Gipsy Danger's left arm clean off!

On the other side, Striker Eureka was also pinned down by two Category 5 Kaiju!

The situation was extremely dangerous!

If the monsters were stopped, more Category 5 Kaiju would emerge from the seawater,

and without the Jaegers to resist, Earth would be utterly destroyed by the Kaiju! 【】

At the critical moment, the Marshal inside Striker Eureka came up with a desperate plan!

"You're nuclear-powered — you can detonate the Jaeger and blow up the Breach!"

"Leave those two Kaiju to us!"

He planned to detonate the nuke on his own body, taking the two Category 5 Kaiju with him!

How could Herc Hansen, the father commanding from the base, bear to watch his son perish along with the monsters?

But at this moment of humanity's very survival,

the son, once arrogant and insufferably proud, completed his own character arc...

"Just like my father said — seize the chance when it comes! Lets-do-this!!"

"An honor to fight alongside you, sir!"

This heroic scene couldn't help but move the the audience before the screen to tears.

The hymn of humanity is the hymn of courage!!

Boom!

The nuke detonated beneath the sea, the tremendous energy instantly vaporizing the seawater within a hemisphere! Leaving a hollow void!

Both Kaiju and Striker Eureka were taken out at the same time.

Originally there were four mechs, but now only a battered Gipsy Danger remains.

How utterly tragic!

After using a sword to withstand the blast, Gipsy Danger faces a remaining Class 5 monster charging from afar,

and with its last remaining arm, raises the chain sword, cleverly using the impact force to split the monster clean in two!

With its legs, arms, and torso all heavily damaged,

Gipsy Danger, clutching the monster's corpse, staggers toward the breach!

"No matter what happens, we must complete this mission!"

The entire film's atmosphere has shifted from lighthearted at the start to unbearably heroic and tragic!

For the sake of humanity behind them, the elite warriors can unhesitatingly march to their deaths!

At the critical moment, he ejects Mako's cockpit early, and the escape pod flies toward the sea.

He himself must manually activate the nuclear bomb.

Raleigh has made his peace with the sacrifice.

Carrying the monster's DNA, the mech passes the breach's "recognition" and smoothly slips into another world.

The protagonist Raleigh also discovers the truth—these monsters were indeed all manufactured, and the aliens are someone else entirely!

With only 15 seconds left before the nuclear bomb activates, Raleigh successfully launches the escape pod and escapes.

Gipsy Danger completes its final mission, exploding with a thunderous roar and destroying the breach connecting the worlds!

In the end, naturally, it's a happy reunion—with everyone worried sick, the protagonist appears just in time.

Xu Can and Scarlett Johansson's first kiss scene was also born right here.

"For this movie, I'd advise you not to watch it with them."

Black Widow reminds him in a whisper by Xu Can's ear, a teasing smile curling at the corner of her lips.

Xu Can says nothing, and just like in the movie, kisses her directly.

"Mmph!!!"

Black Widow's pupils quake—there's still people around!

But then, she completely gives herself over to it.

"Forget it, who cares."

The film ends!

Beneath the stirring main theme of *Pacific Rim*,

the credits slowly roll.
