With the Defense Force still mourning the loss of Director General Shinomiya, Kafka's worsening condition—a hand that will no longer fully revert to human form—is immediately addressed by the pragmatic Captain Gen Narumi. It is revealed that during Kaiju No. 9's fatal assault, a powerful subordinate monster, now designated Kaiju No. 10, was left behind and captured. In a stunning strategic move, Narumi announces that this new kaiju will be repurposed into a living weapon, specifically for the blade-wielding Vice-Captain Soushirou Hoshina, setting him up for a powerful comeback.
