Leviathan (リヴァイアサン)

That's the Goliath's influence.

Those hyenas.

The Lightning Cannon wasn't enough for them.

Now they're after the Goliath too.

Whoa… it's huge.

But wait! At this close range, New York's gonna get wiped out!

Of course, that tin toy isn't the real target.

It can't be!

Why can't you understand, Volger?

The German army will use the Goliath for war!

London, Paris…

Millions of lives will be in danger!

So what?

We only need to worry about Austria!

Our only concern is preserving the bloodline of the Habsburgs!

For this, you must accept sacrifices.

Forget useless emotions and become the absolute king the people will worship.

And don't even think about that childish Darwinist friendship nonsense.

No.

That's wrong.

Nobles and kings have no idea how ordinary people live,

what they see, or what they feel.

A country ruled only by people like that has no future!

We need to work together with the people and learn from them.

The same goes for other nations.

We must end the divide between Clankers and Darwinists!

Silence!

The Habsburgs must--

Bloodlines don't mean a damn thing!

What?

That outdated belief is what got my father and mother killed!

Do you dare say it was my fault?

For Your Highness! For the country!

I gave up everything!

My whole life has been dedicated to the Habsburgs!

Volger…

Forgive me… for being selfish.

-But I-- -Please go now.

You're right.

There's no place for me in the future you'll live in.

Approaching destination. Prepare for landing!

No crew?

All right!

Leviathan! Leviathan!

Why is the compass…

What?

Whoa! Huh?

Target in sight! Surround the tower and seize control of Tesla's weapons!

Yeah!

Damn it!

German soldiers, can you hear me?

I am Nikola Tesla,

creator of the Goliath, the machine you are after.

Gentlemen, this is your last warning.

Cease this barbaric act at once.

The Goliath has already begun to build up a charge.

And its target is the German capital, Berlin!

What?!

Hey, wait a second, old man!

Sharp?!

Did you say Berlin? Are you serious?

Sharp, wait!

You've got front-row seats.

Please sit back and witness history in the making.

Hey, hold on!

Members of the press, look closely!

That enormous submarine belongs to the German army,

here to seize my creation!

What?

But rest assured,

the moment I issued my warning, they froze in place.

This situation, ladies and gentlemen,

is exactly what I wanted to show you.

My greatest masterpiece, this tower,

the Goliath, is the invention of the century.

It will put an end to senseless wars and bring world peace!

Berlin is…

Damn it, he's insane.

My family…

There's no way he can do that from this distance.

"We're retreating. Stop the charge."

They're retreating. Fantastic!

Thank you for your peaceful decision.

The charge has been stopped immediately.

Now please return home to your families waiting in your homeland.

This is a historic day!

At this very moment, we have successfully halted a meaningless conflict.

Everyone, please spread this truth across the world.

And any country that insists on war

will find the Goliath's sights locked on them--

Whoa!

Hey!

Sharp!

All troops, move out!

The weapon is destroyed! Surround the tower!

What?!

Idiots. Absolute fools.

I gave them one last chance, and yet…

Resuming Goliath charging process.

What? Wasn't it destroyed?

Nobody ever said the Goliath was here.

First, disturbances in the magnetic fields were detected locally just before.

Don't tell me it's still…

I repeat, surround the tower!

Stop! The Goliath is still active!

Who is that?

It's charging again!

Hey! That guy! Seize him!

Tell the captain to call off the operation!

-Don't move! -Berlin will be wiped out at this rate!

Damn it!

The Goliath must be destroyed!

Stop right there!

Wait, hold on!

Even if you blow up Berlin,

they won't realize it and will still come and capture you!

This is pointless--

I already assumed they would.

They won't even be able to set foot inside

before learning of their homeland's tragedy

and the war's end.

Capture Nikola Tesla alive!

As long as he's alive,

we can recreate that weapon and claim it as our own!

I never wanted it to come to this.

I never wanted it.

Then why?

To send a message!

If something truly terrifying doesn't happen,

they will continue to fight,

and innocent lives will continue to be lost forever.

But now this one sacrifice will consign all war to history!

If I don't do this now… I must do it…

For the future of humanity!

Time remaining to full charge, eight minutes.

Damn it. What can I do?

Volger?!

Now, Your Highness!

-Hurry! -He's an intruder too.

-Kill him! -Do what you must. Follow your own will!

Go, Alek!

This little one…

Huh?

It's calculating the energy flow.

What?!

Those smaller towers…

Ten, eleven…

There are twelve in total.

Doctor, don't tell me…

Yes. One of them must be the real Goliath.

Hey!

Look, everyone.

They are trying to deceive me and steal the Goliath!

-They will surely use the Goliath for war… -Four.

Huh?! Four?

We have to find a way out of here.

…reshape the world to suit their desires.

All right, one more shot.
