Story
It is the last summer of the 20th century. On that day, the human race discovers that they are not the only rulers of the planet Earth.

The "monster," a gigantic creature, has emerged, and "Godzilla," the ultimate being that can destroy even the monsters. After half a century of war against the monsters, mankind has been repeatedly defeated and finally plans to escape from the Earth. In 2048, only those who had been selected by artificial intelligence under the control of the central government set out on an interstellar emigration ship, the Aratrum, for the planet Tau e in the constellation of Whale, 11.9 light years away. However, the difference in environmental conditions between Tau e and Earth, which took 20 years to reach, was far greater than predicted and could not be called an environment in which humans could survive.
Haruo, a young man aboard the immigrant ship, had his parents killed by Godzilla in front of him when he was 4 years old, and for 20 years he has been thinking only of returning to Earth and defeating Godzilla. With the possibility of immigration closed to him and the environment for survival deteriorating, Haruo and the other members of the "return-to-Earth" faction become the mainstream, and they decide to take the dangerous long-distance subspace voyage and head for Earth.
However, 20,000 years have already passed since their return, and the earth has become an unknown world with an ecosystem led by Godzilla. Can the human race regain the Earth? And what is Haruo's fate?
