Summary

Knocked backward by the Tokyo Tower that Kinta swings like a club, Hastur has the kaiju snatch up the Tokyo Skytree to level the contest, smugly noting that it outreaches Kinta's chosen tower. Kinta presses his advantage all the same, arguing the Tower bests the Skytree in a fight. Bamora praises his showing and calls him strong, which delights him, though she cautions that the kaiju has risen again. Hastur dismisses the blows as useless against the kaiju's toughness and gores the Great Kinta with the creature's horns.

Hastur rips the control pod free and starts crushing it with Kinta and Bamora trapped inside, proclaiming Earth the property of the globalists. He spots Kinta still working the nanoskin and orders him to quit, but Kinta refuses, admitting he has nothing to boast about while insisting he will cling to what he loves. The pod caves in, yet Hastur finds the pair on the kaiju's back: Kinta had baited his attention, ejected with Bamora, climbed the arm to the spine, and fashioned a jetpack. Beyond the giant's reach, they fire it skyward and slam it down with a spinning power bomb that wrecks the area, copying Momo's trick of hammering the pilot directly.
