So you're saying we need to genetically engineer larger orcas? How big are we talking, 700-800 meters long? Would it also be okay to shoehorn in the smartness gene that the sharks got in Deep Blue Sea? How about an invisibility gene, just for fun?

Maybe just switch from orcas to training sperm whales, and see how that goes first.

Just go full Norse and make an orca big enough to start Fenrir'ing everything
