Description
Recently at the Arena, Soundwave challenged me to a fight, using his new squid monster Sharpteuth. [link]Not content with anything currently on my roster, he jokingly demanded that I make a new monster specifically to fight Sharpteuth, and I took him up on that offer.
So here's my response: an Asian Con Rit Kaiju named Wu Long, which is Chinese for Centipede Dragon. Wu Long is a guardian beast, fabled to protect sailors from sea monsters. And not just sea monsters- specifically, Wu Long is a Kraken hunter. And Sharpteuth just so happens to be an Atlantean Kraken.
Yeah. This is gonna be good.

It's really cool, Maybe creatures like these are the ones that inspired Chinese people to think of dragons.

Yeah, some people think so. I dunno about all that, but it'd be pretty cool if there really were Con Rit.

Though not related to your challenge, your Centipede creature looks nearly identical to this one I dreamt about some recently. Only the one in that dream was like a parasite and a mind controlling one at that.

I'm sure this was probably expected, but I really love the way you handle bug-monsters. They always come out deliciously jagged and stylish, while sticking to their theme and not falling into the cliches one tends to face with insect-monsters. The idea of a centipede that's mistaken for an oriental dragon is a stroke of genius, simply put.
