[Entering Timeline: The Ork Empire's Total War Against the Tyranids]

World Difficulty: LV.25 (Very Hard) ~ LV.?? (High Risk) [War World]

Timeline Overview:

Ever since the Imperium of Man lured a tendril of Hive Fleet Leviathan into Ork-held space years ago, the Octarius System has been the epicenter of a fierce war between the Orks and the Tyranids in the Octarius Sector.

The prolonged stalemate finally took a turn. The Leviathan swarm made planetfall on Ghorala (a frontier world in the Octarius Sector) and clashed with the Pirate Warboss Skarfang.

Exploiting the Orks' weakness, the Hive Mind assassinated Skarfang in a decapitation strike, throwing the Orks into chaos. It then divided and conquered, successfully wiping out all Orks on Ghorala, absorbing massive resources to spawn more swarms, and using the planet as a springboard to capture multiple worlds, pushing deeper into the Octarius heartland.

Warboss Ironjaw of the Deathskulls Clan took command of the Ork defensive line. His specialty wasn't offense, but defense. Every planet under his control was fortified with a staggering number of defensive structures. Multiple assassination attempts by the Hive Mind were easily thwarted.

Under Ironjaw's command, the war of beasts and bugs gradually turned into an endless tug-of-war.

However, relying on their efficient battlefield reclamation capabilities, the Tyranids constantly replenished their ground forces. Simultaneously, the Hive Mind absorbed vast amounts of biomass and resources from the conquered Ork worlds to build more fleets.

The scales of war are tipping in favor of the Tyranids. The fall of the Orks' iron fortresses is only a matter of time.

Meanwhile, a mysterious fleet, guided by the two supreme gods of the Orks, prepares to completely turn the tide of this war.

Faction: Orks (Chaotic Evil)

Current Location: Warp Transit

Host's Current Identity: Mekboy (Former), (Acting) Big Mek (Chief Engineer of the Bonebreaka Fleet), Researcher.

"Boss... Boss..."

The consciousness transfer felt like being whacked in the back of the head with a sap. Dizzy and groggy, Kenmei Isayama vaguely felt something shoving him.

Opening his eyes, he saw a hideously ugly, stunted green creature standing right in front of him. Instinctively, he lashed out with a punch, sending the weird thing flying.

What felt like a light tap carried the force of a wrecking ball, smashing the "gretchin" straight into the wall. Calling it a "wall" was generous; it was a heap of rusted scrap metal, including what looked like tank plating riddled with bullet holes.

"Holy crap... what the hell?"

Kenmei looked at his arm in disbelief. It was a very healthy shade of green—the kind that makes you want to forgive someone.

"I turned green..."

Beneath the mechanical augmentations lay green skin.

After a minute of contemplation, Kenmei finally accepted the fact that he had become a green-skinned monster.

After all, his first D-Rank simulation had turned him into a dog. At least this time he had limbs, and this body was incredibly robust compared to his human one.

If Kenmei remembered correctly, the race he had drawn this time was the most cheerful and free-spirited race in the Warhammer universe: the Orks, also known as Greenskins. They are a barbaric, warlike, green-skinned species found throughout the galaxy.

From the moment these simple-minded Ork boyz are born, the genetic material in their DNA urges them to fight. When they're full, they fight. When they wake up, they fight.

"We work at night! The Warboss or Big Mek calls everyone to the center of the camp, climbs up his WAAAGH!!! banner tower, and shouts loudly, telling us where we're gonna fight tomorrow or what we're gonna loot! Or maybe he calls a few Weirdboyz up to give us a psychic fireworks show!"

War is the best way—the only way—to achieve the satisfaction of a good fight. Unlike other races, Orks don't wage war for wealth or to build empires.

Ork Boyz crave only one thing: to satisfy their endless desire for destruction in the most spectacular way possible!

This savage nature drives the Boyz into meaningless, ceaseless, mad wars. Without an enemy, Orks will even fight each other for the sheer joy of killing.

Thus, in this dark, hopeless universe where there is only war, the Orks are the only truly optimistic race.

"We were made fer fightin' an' winnin'!" is the lifelong pursuit of these Boyz.

Although Orks bleed like "humies" (humans) when injured, strictly speaking, they aren't true animals. They are a fungus.

These simple-minded, muscle-bound green giants don't reproduce sexually; they sprout from spores like mushrooms.

Plant a dead Greenskin in the dirt, and soon you'll harvest a mountain of Greenskin troops. It doesn't take long for the Boyz to multiply until the entire planet belongs to them.

Kenmei's identity this time was one of the Boyz, but with a special profession.

Mekboy, also known as a Mek.

Among these illiterate, simple-minded Orks, Meks are considered the intellectuals. They can build weapons out of anything from any faction in Warhammer 40K—the Imperium, T'au, Aeldari, Necrons, or even Tyranid biomatter.

Kenmei opened his character panel, which had updated to the Ork version.

 Name: Ironhand Gul'dan

 Race: Ork

 Clan: Blood Axes

 Mana: Fluctuates with the WAAAGH! Field

 Active Skill: "Da Power of Waaagh!" (I Think It Works)

(Since ordinary humans from Kenmei's world are not comparable to creatures of the Warhammer universe, physical stats are not displayed.)

 Class: Big Mek

Description: They don't need to know the principles of mechanics. As long as they think the machine should work this way, under the support of the WAAAGH! field, they will get the machine effect they want.

That's why they are called "Meks." Even if a weapon is damaged or broken, as long as a Mek believes it can be used, it can be reactivated immediately.

Just like the vessel Kenmei—no, Gul'dan—was riding in. This thing, barely recognizable as a warship made of scrap metal slapped together, was somehow navigating the violent Warp without falling apart.

The ship wasn't even airtight.

If a Tech-Priest of the Imperium saw this, even they would have to say, "Impressive."

Gul'dan (Kenmei's) promotion ceremony from Mekboy to Big Mek (Chief Engineer) was about to be held on this warship, under the observation of the Warboss, Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka (Ghazghkull Thraka).
