Plot
While at a Northern Israeli dig site in 2016, Benjamin Thompson and Nikki Kasumi discover Homo erectus and Velociraptor remains on the same ridge, which should have been impossible.
In the Late Cretaceous Period, kaiju run rampant. Ebirah and Gezora battle in the ocean, while Rodan eats a Tyrannosaurus rex. Rodan is shot down by a stray beam fired by Godzilla during a fight with Anguirus, Varan and Baragon. Kumonga prepares to eat Rodan's remains while Mothra and Battra battle in the sky. This continues until Keizer Ghidorah falls from the sky in a meteor shower. Keizer Ghidorah defeats all the monsters and transforms into Monster X to fight Godzilla and Anguirus. Anguirus is soon taken out, and Godzilla fights and nearly defeats Monster X, but is distracted briefly by an incoming fleet of Xilien UFOs. Monster X uses this opportunity to tip Godzilla over into a volcano before morphing back into Keizer Ghidorah and joining up with the rest of the UFOs. The fleet arrives on Earth, and an Xilien onboard sets two Homo erectus free, which he gives an axe to build and fight with and a fruit to plant. He then informs them that when the planet is ready, they will be back to harvest it. However, just as the Xiliens leave Earth, Godzilla emerges from the ground and incinerates both of the Homo erectus and a nearby Velociraptor with magma.
