A colossal corpse was uncovered in Japan, and
it appeared to be an enormous, avian abomination.
The monster was relocated to a research lab in
Tokyo, and the true identity of this relic soon
became known to three humans. Two diminutive fairies,
called the Shobijin, revealed to the humans that
this was a monster that had battled with the guardian
Mothra. Gigan, as the sinister cyborg was known,
had fought against the peaceful protector over
10,000 years ago, and unless its dormant body
was returned to its tomb, dire consequences would
befall the world. The humans didn't heed the warning,
and careless research of the beast continued...
Meanwhile, the deceitful extra terrestrial race
known as the Xiliens had taken responsibility
for the recent defeat of several dangerous monsters
around the world. Their true scheme was to use
the monster invasion as their first phase of domination,
and when this fact came to light, the Xiliens
attacked the Earth once more! During this second
assault, the cybernetic organism, a weapon of
the alien race, was revived and ordered to attack
Tokyo; however, when Gotengo took flight to Antarctica
to free Godzilla, the Xiliens ordered Gigan to
follow and destroy the aerial vessel.
When the Gotengo arrived at the very bottom of
the Earth, Gigan began to unleash its full fury
on the battleship. The Gotengo was bombarded with
attacks and was finally forced to the ground.
It did, however, manage to fire its missiles at
the base that held Godzilla. Right before Gigan
was about to finish the Gotengo, an atomic ray
blasted into its flesh, sending the contemptible
creature to the ground. The king of the monsters
had risen from his forty-year hibernation, and
Gigan retaliated with its powerful cluster beam.
As the reprehensible, robotic terror wrapped its
cables around the nuclear menace and began to
real him in, Gigan's abdominal buzz saw began
to spin violently, and it appeared as though Godzilla
would soon meet a bloody fate. A single atomic
ray decapitated Gigan, however, and the hateful
horror fell to the ground. Godzilla roared in
victory and began to follow Gotengo back to Tokyo,
unaware that the creature lying behind him was
not completely defeated...
