### Summary
In the immediate aftermath of Kana's spectacular assault that crippled the leviathan Genod, the group's crisis has taken a horrifying psychological turn. While Lita remains trapped inside the wounded sea demon, the survivors are confronted by a new terror: the apparent reanimation of their recently deceased comrade, Jako. This development is not a supernatural occurrence but is identified as a deceptive hunting tactic—a monstrous bait created by an intelligent leviathan capable of mimicking the dead. This chilling ability directly mirrors the strategy used by the creature that murdered Bota and Lita's father, Teon Ma, years prior, linking their current predicament to the core trauma of their past. The battle has shifted from a direct confrontation with a colossal beast to a tense engagement with a cunning predator that weaponizes the memory of their fallen allies, introducing a new layer of horror and deception to their already desperate struggle for survival.
