Godzilla vs himself! These are perhaps the two most powerful versions of Godzilla to date (well, aside from Godzilla Earth, of course), so let's see who's more powerful!
Interlude[]
Tabashi: The old days are FILLED with things that give us nostalgia every time we remember them.
Angel: But there are just way too many old movies! Still, among them is a very special franchise that would mark the genre of the Kaiju: Godzilla!
Tabashi: With almost 65 years of existence, this monster has managed to keep up very well. And I think it’s safe to say that he’s not slowing down yet!
Angel: But today, we will pit two of his incarnations, which, apart from being quite iconic, are the most powerful.
Tabashi: Legendary Godzilla, the alpha predator and defender of humanity who’s made in America.
Angel: And Heisei Godzilla, the awesome achievement of the 90s. He’s Tabashi and I'm Angel!
Tabashi: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armors and skills to find out who would win in a King of the Monsters DEATH BATTLE!
Legendary Godzilla[]
Tabashi: The year was 1954. A nuclear submarine was just minding its own business, when it unknowingly awakened something.
Angel: You know, if you think about it, Godzilla's not a bad guy. He just wants to sleep.
Tabashi: Well, the Monsterverse version does, anyway. Some versions do, and some don't.
Angel: Yeah, some versions are good, some are bad, and some are just downright confusing!
Tabashi: Well, debates aside, THIS Godzilla's origin is radically different from all the others. He is an ancient lifeform from the Permian Period.
Angel: Yeah, he's what the Nature Community likes to call the "alpha predator".
Tabashi: Challenged by no one, except for a certain rival species. Anyway, as Earth cooled down and the natural, atmospheric radiation decreased dramatically, Godzilla adapted to survive various extinction events.
Angel: How did he do this? By diving deep into the ocean and consuming the planet's natural geothermal radiation in a hibernation-like state from its molten core!
Tabashi: Right you are. There Godzilla stayed for millions of years, sleeping. Feeding. Waiting.
Angel: Wow, great plan! Well, he did that, that is, until 1954, when that nuclear submarine woke him up.
Tabashi: Well, rudeness aside, the Legendary Godzilla is already a powerful force, being at least 394 feet tall. But don't worry, people. We have our rules.
Angel: Anyway, Godzilla is armed with razor sharp claws, a tail that can be used like Indiana's whip (and move faster than the speed of sound, BTW), and the infamous Atomic Breath, which can be upgraded after having a nuclear warhead blow up in his face!
Tabashi: After that, the AB was powerful enough to push King Ghidorah back, who weighs 141,056 metric tons!
Angel: Speaking of which, Godzilla was strong enough to TOSS AROUND the MUTOs, MUTO Prime, & King Ghidorah himself!
Tabashi: Correct again! Godzilla can also survive stuff that normal people couldn't, like explosions.
Angel: Very big, Oxygen-Destroying explosions.
Tabashi: However, it was said that the natural process to revive Godzilla to his full power would take frickin' YEARS to complete, so if something like that were to happen in Death Battle, we'd count it as an instant loss.
Angel: Godzilla has defeated the evil Kaiju known as M.U.T.O, their mother, MUTO Prime, and his ancient rival, the three-headed King Ghidorah. He has fair durability, surviving a 7.1-28 TERATON (of TNT) meteor impact with NO injuries, and is Supersonic in reaction speed, as well as being able to run at at 307-425mph.
Tabashi: However, despite looking like a living weapon, this King of the Monsters does have some flaws.
Angel: This Godzilla can be overwhelmed by numbers, nearly killed by the Oxygen Destroyer Missile, have his dorsal plates broken by powerful enough Sonic Roars, and he's got vulnerable gills and relatively short arms compared to the other Godzillas.
Tabashi: Yeah, but those weaknesses simply PALE in comparison to his worst weakness.
Angel: Yeah, remember that nuke that blew up in Godzilla's face? Well, the excess radiation was too much to handle, so this Godzilla would've died if the Queen of the Monsters hadn't interfered.
Tabashi: But he's still more than capable of defending humans from other Kaiju, right?
Angel: That I can definitely agree with!
Heisei Godzilla[]
Tabashi: Godzilla Heisei was once just a regular, 39-foot (12-meter) tall dinosaur known as a Godzillasaurus.
Angel: Godzillasaurs aren't even real. How the hell's that regular?
Tabashi: You have much to learn about the Kaiju world, Angel. Trust me, Godzillasaurus is normal by a long shot. Anyways, it was believed that the G-saurus was mutated into a Kaiju by the Castle Bravo hydrogen bomb. Time travelers from the future known as Futurians used this belief to try & stop Godzilla from ever existing by going into the past & moving him to another location.
Angel: However, Heisei Godzilla was never mutated by a hydrogen bomb, he was mutated by a nuclear submarine crashing in his vicinity. Therefore, the Futurians moving Godzillasaurus was the reason for Godzilla coming to be in the first place. Don't you just hate time travel?
Tabashi: Standing at 328 feet (100 meters) tall & weighing 60,000 metric tons, he may not be the strongest Godzilla, but that doesn't mean he's weak. Just like any Godzilla, Heisei Godzilla has the Atomic Breath, a beam of super-heated concentrated radiation. It can reach temperatures of 500,000°C (or 900,032°F), and cause explosions upon impact. He also has the Nuclear Pulse, a short range explosion of energy emitted from every inch of his body.
Angel: Godzilla Heisei can also absorb energy to strengthen & heal himself. Even without absorption, Godzilla naturally regenerates from damage at an alarming rate.
Tabashi: With his more impressive abilities out of the way, I'll get to his other traits. Like his heat resistance, with the strength to resist magma. And his swimming ability, allowing him to quickly travel underwater as well as breathe while submerged. He can even fight well in hand-to-hand, but he prefers to fight from range.
Angel: Heisei Godzilla's strong enough to tank volcanic eruptions with no damage, defeated a Kaiju that could create earth tremors, & overpowered the Super X's Fire Mirror. Said mirror was supposed to be capable of reflecting Godzilla's attacks & amplifying it by 1,000!
Tabashi: A feat which would require 35.5-216 Teratons! Jesus, that's a lot!
Angel: Not only that, but his Atomic Breath can achieve speeds of up to Mach 19.
Tabashi: As powerful as Godzilla Heisei is, he does have a weakness. Since his body runs on nuclear energy, interfering with or removing said energy can weaken or kill him.
Angel: But unfortunately, you'd actually have to know that weakness in order to exploit it, so good luck bringing this Godzilla down!
Death Battle![]
Tabashi: All righty then. The combatants are set, and we've run the data through all possibilities.
Angel: It's time for a Godzilla vs himself Death Battle!
Pre-Fight[]
600 Miles from the Castle Bravo Outpost
The Mask hovered over the ocean, and took something big out of his pocket. It was a giant bomb that had the words "Fat Lady" inscribed on it.
The Mask: Well, this is where the Teen told me to drop this bomb. So away it goes!
The Mask chucks the bomb into the ocean, where it zooms towards the Legendary Godzilla's home. When the bomb collides with the ground, a massive explosion can be seen from below the surface. The Mask watches the underwater scene with an expression of awe on is face.
The Mask: Wakey, wakey! Time to get up and kill yourself!
As he was talking, the ocean starts bubbling, glowing a bright blue. Then, LegendaryGoji rises, charges up, and lets loose a massive stream of powered-up Atomic Breath.
The Mask: (puts on some sunglasses) Now THAT'S cool.
Godzilla then senses a presence to his north. It feels like himself, yet it's somehow different at the same time. He leaves The Mask and submerges, swimming off to find out what the scent is.
Boston, Massachusetts
The Teen and Deadpool are running for their lives, for they had pissed off the Heisei Godzilla.
Deadpool: I told you we shouldn't have taken this job!
Teen: Yeah, well I didn't want to, but they made us $43,000,000 richer, so shut up about it!
Deadpool: (sighs) Now I know why you don't want to pit Godzilla against himself in Death Battle!
Teen: Well, just be thankful that this is Base 1 and not Base 2!
Deadpool: Why!?
Teen: Because we'd be dead right now!
Deadpool: Let's just hope Mask woke up the other one so he gets here before we're ashes!
Suddenly, HeiseiGoji stops his pursuit and turns around. Standing behind him, glowing blue, is the LegendaryGoji. Both Godzillas stare each other down while The Mask finds his companions.
Deadpool: Well, it's about damn time! He almost got us!
The Mask: Well, I brought him here, didn't I?
Teen: Hey, Thing 1 and Thing 2! Let's all just calm down and find a good rooftop to watch this! I didn't want to see these two fight, but I'm not going to miss it!
Meanwhile, Legendary roars, and so does Heisei.
Legendary runs at Heisei, and the two clash their fists together, trying to overpower one another. After a minute, Legendary proves to have the superior strength by pushing Heisei backwards into a building. The building crumbles, but Heisei is still very much alive. He blasts his way out of the rubble via his Atomic Breath, and blasts Legendary with it, too. However, Legendary counters this with his OWN Atomic Breath, causing an explosion.
The explosion does nothing to deter either Godzilla, though, and they both charge each other again. However, Legendary has a trick up his… uh, scales? When Heisei gets within range, Legendary smacked Heisei with his tail, which knocked Heisei back a few dozen feet. Heisei got back up quickly, though, and used his Atomic Breath to strike Legendary in the stomach. Legendary is stunned, but starts walking towards Heisei, powering through the pain.
Heisei is surprised by this, and stops firing his Atomic Breath at Legendary as he gets slammed and shoved into a building, which crumbles on both of them.
Deadpool: Well, that was easy. Let's go home!
Teen: Sit down, stupid. This isn't even CLOSE to being over yet.
The building suddenly explodes as both Godzillas clash fists once more. Legendary smacks Heisei in the jaw, then blasts him with his Atomic Breath. Heisei isn't even fazed now, since he's getting madder and madder by the second. Finally, Heisei just couldn't take it any more. He turned his head to face Legendary, and releases the most powerful stream of Atomic Breath he could muster. It felt like even he released even more power than that time he fought against the Super X2. Legendary countered with his own Atomic Breath, but even powered up, Legendary's was no match for Heisei's sheer might.
Legendary collapsed on the ground, bleeding heavily but somehow still alive. But Heisei was going to easily remedy that. Heisei walked over to Legendary, clamping his jaws on the throat, and started squeezing with all his might. Legendary roared out in pain...
Teen: Oh... shit!
Mask: Aw, I was rooting for that guy!
…And then there was a sickening crunching noise. Legendary Godzilla was (ironically) dethroned by his worst enemy: himself.
Heisei let go of Legendary's neck and started rampaging through the city, while the Teen, Deadpool, and The Mask approached Legendary's dead body.
Deadpool: Well, that's just great! Now what the hell are we supposed to do!?
Teen: (wipes a tear from his eye) Mask, do you have any more nukes?
Mask: Of course! Why, what's the plan?
Teen: (blows his nose, then shows a look of rage on his face) To initiate Phase 2 of 3.
Results[]
Angel: WHAT!? BUT WHY DIDN'T LEGENDARY WIN!?
Tabashi: Now, to be honest, I was hoping for the opposite results myself. Legendary was actually the stronger of the two, since he had the superior weight, and his Atomic Breath pushed the 141,056 metric ton King Ghidorah a good distance. However, Heisei... is simply to powerful and durable.
Angel: Yeah, Heisei fought the Super X2, and survived its Fire Mirror's output (which, mind you, was pushed to its absolute limit). That mirror was able to reflect and amplify Godzilla's Atomic Breath by 1,000!
Tabashi: That means that Heisei survived 355 Teratons-2.2 Petatons of TNT! Way more than what Legendary survived!
Angel: Sure, Heisei could only output 355 Gigatons-2 Teratons of TNT with his Atomic Breath, while Legendary could output 405 Gigatons-62.3 Teratons of TNT via HIS Atomic Breath, but when your opponent's survived way more than that, there's not much you can do.
Tabashi: Oh, also, Legendary did have faster travel speed. See, we used Base 1 Heisei for this Battle, but the max land speed for Base 2 (who is better than Base 1 in every way) is 210mph. That's slower than Zilla!
Angel: In contrast, Legendary's travel speed varies from 306.4-425mph. That's barely slower than Zilla! Also, Heisei was smarter, so it was only a matter of time before Legendary's weakness (his gills) would be exploited
Tabashi: So, in conclusion, although Legendary was stronger and faster, he could not compete with Heisei's superior durability and intelligence.
Angel: In the end, Heisei became the new Legendary Picture for all Godzillas.
Tabashi: The winner is the Heisei Godzilla. And also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BIG G! 66 and still going strong!
Next Time, Baby![]
Tabashi: Next time on Death battle!
The Mask puts a shopping cart full of nukes next to Legendary's dead body.
Mask: This ought to perk him up!
The nukes go off, destroying the city and enveloping Legendary and Heisei. Then, all is quiet. It seems as if both are-
(Burning Godzilla raises his head and roars in pure rage)
(Fire Godzilla takes a step, inhales, and lets out a loud roar)
