The **Battleship Yamato**, or **Great Harmony** in Japanese, is a Yamato-class battleship built before the onset of World War II.

## Overview

The Battleship Yamato was a battleship from the Empire of Japan that was sunk during WWII that was later possessed and reanimated by the agony of the victims of the pacific war. Because of this the Yamato's sole goal is to destroy Japan, and subsequently Japan's myriad Gods.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Enhanced Arsenal**: The Yamato's weaponry is similar to normal battleship weaponry; cannons, torpedoes, etc. This weaponry however is greatly enhanced, shooting energy volleys capable of wounding and killing the Japanese gods. Its weapons are further enhanced when the Yamato goes into its humanoid form.
* **Immense Strength**: The Yamato's physical strength is capable of overpowering the Japanese gods.
* **Immense Durability**: The Yamato's is able to take little to no damage from the Japanese myriad gods, the only way they were able to hurt the Yamato was by combining all their power together. The Heart of the Yamato has durability even higher than that, able to withstand attacks from weapons empowered by the full might of Ame-no-Minakanushi.
* **Regeneration**: The Yamato is able to automatically repair its body after suffering from damage, the process to do so is extremely fast, so fast that the Japanese Myriad Alliance had to use Sukuna Hikona's size changing to be able to make it inside.
* **Transmogrification**: The Yamato after being enraged is capable of transforming its body into a humanoid figure. Its also capable of transforming its structure to suit the situation.
* **Energy Absorption**: The Yamato was able to Absorb energy based projectiles fired from the Japanese myriad gods. It was also able to absorb the life force of the gods within its grip, this ability later grew in power being able to absorb the life force of gods within its vicinity.
* **Dimensional Manipulation**: Threatened to transcend dimensionality, destroying reality in the process.

## History

The Battleship Yamato was ordered in march of 1937 and launched on the 8th of august 1940. Subsequently the Yamato sailed in the pacific theatre of WWII. The Yamato quickly became famous for its size and firepower, in spite of this the Yamato was Sunk on April 7th 1945 by American bombers south of Kyushu.

The years after the war led to the world forgetting about the pacific theatre and the lives lost, because of this the agony from the victims of the war reached a boiling point and broke through to the physical world. The agony and rage converged onto the Yamato, reanimating the battleship and repairing the damage brought upon it.

The Yamato continued to travel underwater while remaining undetected until it reached the shore of japan where it surfaced. The Yamato then shot a blast at the Island of Kyushu, destroying it in the process.

The destruction of Kyushu alerted the Japanese myriad gods; the Amatsukami and the Kunitsukami. The two groups of gods confronted the Yamato resulting in a battle between the three forces.

Due to the history between the Amatsukami and the Kunitsukami the two were confrontational between each other during the fight with the Yamato, leading to several deaths on both sides.

Eventually a significant blow was done onto the Yamato by the combined efforts of two members of the Amastukami and the Kunitsukami. The Yamato, enraged, began to shift its hull. The Yamato reformatted its body into a humanoid form before firing off blasts in all directions.

The two armies formed a plan, the Amatsukami and the Kunitsukami would combine their attacks to deal a significant enough hole in the Yamato's hull to allow the gods to infiltrate the Yamato's internal passageways. However even with their combined power they could no longer deal enough damage to create a gap in the Yamato, and even if they did the Yamato would quickly regenerate from the damage.

That's when the The Ainu pantheon and the Local spirits of Japan joined the fight. The three forces put their grievances aside and worked together to breach the hull. But when they did they realize they didn't have enough time before the Yamato regenerated from the damage, so the Kunitsukami sent Sukuna-hikona, The Kamui and spirits sent Hayataro, and the Amatsukami sent Take-Minazuchi into the hole created by the alliance.

The three were able to narrowly get into the Yamato's hull. The inside of the Yamato proved to be just as formidable as the outside if not more so. But eventually the three were able to find the Heart of the accumulated agony. It was a close fight, but in end the Heart of the Yamato was still able to overwhelm them.

But before the Yamato could finish the three off, the three were gifted the Three Sacred Treasures of Japan by Ame-no-Minakanushi. The three treasures were blessed by Minakanushi's divine spirit empowering them greatly and allowing the three to fight on equal ground with the Heart of the Yamato.

Sukuna-hikona wielded the mirror: Yata no Kagami, Hayataro wielded the chain jewel: Yasakani no Magatama, and Take-Minazuchi wielded the sword: Kusanagi.

With the divine weapons the three were able to defeat The Heart of the Yamato, killing it. The three escaped from the collapsing body of the Yamato and watched on as it turned to rust.

The Three sacred Treasures subsequently returned to normal.

After the battle the three groups of gods formed a new unified group; The Japanese Myriad Alliance.

The Battleship Yamato was a real life battleship used by the Japanese during World War II. The idea that it was possessed by the agony of its victims is original to the *GaD wiki*, written by Nogetron.
