Output (English): American reporter Steve Martin Raymond Burr is brought from the ruins of Tokyo to a hospital filled with maimed and wounded citizens. Emiko Momoko Kochi finds him among the victims and attempts to find a doctor for him. Martin recalls in flashback stopping over in Tokyo, where a series of inexplicable ship disasters catches his attention. When a sole survivor washes up on Odo Island, Martin flies there for the story along with Tomo Iwanaga Frank Iwanaga, a representative of the Japanese Security Defense Forces JSDF. He learns of the island inhabitants longheld belief in a sea monster god known to them as Godzilla, which they believe is causing the disasters. That night, a heavy rain and wind storm strikes the island, destroying many houses and killing some villagers. The locals believe that Godzilla and not the storm are responsible for the destruction. Martin returns to the island with Dr. Yamane Takashi Shimura, who leads an investigative crew to Odo Island, where in the ruins, huge radioactive footprints and a trilobite are discovered. An alarm rings and Martin, the villagers, and Dr. Yamanes crew head up a hill for safety. Near the summit, the crew see Godzillas head and upper torso looking down upon them, and they quickly flee downhill. Dr. Yamane later returns to Tokyo to present his findings: Godzilla was resurrected by repeated nuclear tests in the Pacific. The military responds by attempting to kill the giant creature with depth charges, much to Yamanes dismay. Martin contacts his old friend, Dr. Daisuke Serizawa Akihiko Hirata, for dinner, but Serizawa declines due to planned commitments with his fiance. Emiko, Dr. Yamanes daughter, goes over to Serizawas home to break off her arranged engagement to him. She is actually in love with Hideo Ogata Akira Takarada, a salvage ship captain. Dr. Serizawa, however, gives her a demonstration of his secret project, which horrifies her. She is sworn to secrecy and unable to bring herself to break off the engagement. Godzilla surfaces from Tokyo Bay, unharmed by the depth charges, and attacks the city. The next morning, to repel Godzilla, the JSDF arranges for a modification to the tall electrical towers along the Tokyo coast. The King of the Monsters resurfaces that night and easily breaks through the electrical tower fences and JSDF tank defense line by using his atomic heat breath. Using a tape recorder, Martin documents Godzillas annihilation of the city and is nearly killed during the attack. Godzilla returns to the sea leaving Tokyo a burning, destroyed ruin. Martin wakes up in the hospital with Emiko and Ogata. Horrified by the destruction, Emiko reveals to Martin and Ogata the existence of Dr. Serizawas Oxygen Destroyer, which disintegrates oxygen atoms in salt water and causes all marine organisms to die of acidic asphyxiation. Emiko and Ogata go to Dr. Serizawa to convince him to use the Oxygen Destroyer, but he initially refuses. After watching a television broadcast showing the nations plight, Dr. Serizawa finally gives in to their pleas. A navy ship takes Ogata and Serizawa out to the deepest part of Tokyo Bay to plant the underwater weapon near Godzilla. Wearing deep sea diving gear, Ogata and Dr. Serizawa are lowered by lifelines down to the bottom. After they move into position, Ogata signals the surface and is pulled up, but Serizawa delays his ascent and suddenly activates the device. He radios the surface to tell them that it is working, after which he removes his knife and cuts his diving helmets oxygen supply line, taking the secret of his Oxygen Destroyer to the grave. The mission succeeds in obliterating Godzilla. Aboard ship, all mourn the unexpected loss of Dr. Serizawa. In this solemn moment, Martin makes a final observation: The menace was gone...so was a great man. But the whole world could wake up and live again.
