"Kid, I still have some use for Kingpin, I can't let you kill me!"
Wu Chen was thrown more than ten meters away by the blow. He struggled to regain his balance and stood on the water's surface.
The Masked Man slowly emerged from the vortex, his movements unhurried, yet they sent a jolt through the atmosphere!
He stood on the water's surface, coldly staring at Wu Chen. Even the people at S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters could feel the intense pressure emanating from him.
Needless to say, Wu Chen was an even bigger fish in the sea.
He couldn't help but take two steps back, then gritted his teeth and struggled forward, regaining what he had just taken.
A flicker of surprise crossed the Masked Man's eyes, then his tone changed, "It seems you're worth my time!"
As he spoke, the Masked Man absorbed Kingpin into the Kamui Dimension, then, holding Uchiha Gunbai in one hand and a chain in the other, he strolled leisurely toward Wu Chen.
Wu Chen gritted his teeth, condensed Rasengan, and charged towards the Masked Man.
Nick Fury had a bad feeling!
Doesn't Wu Chen know about the Masked Man's situation? Didn't Minato Namikaze tell him? And where is Minato Namikaze? Why hasn't he shown up yet?!
As expected, the Rasengan had no effect and passed right through the Masked Man's body, along with the Ninjutsu.
Snap!
The Masked Man reached out and grabbed Wu Chen's wrist, raising his right Gunbai high, about to smash it down on Wu Chen's forehead.
Whoosh!
Yellow Flash erupted from Wu Chen's body, Minato Namikaze Three-Pronged Kunai to block the Gunbai while simultaneously grabbing the Masked Man's wrist. "Got you!"
Coulson, who was in the distance, was taken aback and suddenly understood why Minato Namikaze had appeared so late.
At this moment, even the members of S.H.I.E.L.D. were belatedly realizing what was happening and exclaimed in admiration, "Director, Minato Namikaze is truly amazing!"
"Using the battle between Wu Chen and Kingpin as bait, Minato Namikaze, knowing his disciple's strength, remained hidden, waiting for Kingpin's defeat so the Masked Man could appear! The moment the Masked Man showed his face, Masked Man appeared and seized him!"
"Chief, the seal may not be broken!"
Nick Fury was also pleased. Although he had persuaded the mayor to clear everyone from Times Square, it was best to avoid a fight if possible.
After all, public facilities are all built with money.
But will Wu Chen be able to do as he wishes?
Having been captured by Minato Namikaze, the Masked Man remained calm. He pointed at Wu Chen and said to Minato Namikaze, "Look at what your disciple is carrying on his back?"
Upon hearing this, Minato Namikaze looked over and saw that it was an Explosive Tag!
The Masked Man seized the opportunity to immediately form hand seals and ignite the Explosive Tag.
Whoosh~
The Explosive Tag burned rapidly, and it looked like it was about to explode. Minato Namikaze had no choice but to release the Masked Man, remove the Explosive Tag from Wu Chen's back, and throw it far away.
Thud!
The Explosive Tag detonated, and the Masked Man entered an Intangibility state.
"That's despicable! To use such methods!" the S.H.I.E.L.D.. think tank exclaimed angrily.
"Sigh~ That's why villains are more powerful than superheroes, they have nothing to fear!"
"But did you guys notice that talisman? A piece of paper that could explode like a hand grenade!!"
"Wow, really! Doesn't this mean that both Konoha and the Masked Man's organization have the ability to create those talismans?"
However, the chaos inside S.H.I.E.L.D.. had no effect on what was happening in Times Square.
At that moment, neither the people in Times Square nor S.H.I.E.L.D.. noticed that everything in Times Square was being captured in its entirety by cameras on distant buildings and broadcast live to New York Television Stations.
The New York Television Station was located in Times Square, and when the government ordered them to evacuate, they keenly sensed signs of a major news story.
The TV station executives took note and ordered the installation of high-definition cameras, which were then connected to the news broadcast for live streaming.
And so, everything that happened in Times Square was being broadcast live across the United States at that moment.
Ta-da~
The Masked Man lifted his foot and walked towards the center of Times Square, his body passing directly through Wu Chen and Minato Namikaze.
Wu Chen and Minato Namikaze exchanged a glance and shook their heads together; neither of them could make contact with the Masked Man.
Whoosh!
Wu Chen activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, bringing Minato Namikaze to Coulson's location, and then activated the Flying Thunder God Technique again.
Coulson looked at himself as he arrived in front of Stark Tower, immediately puzzled. "Mr. Wu, Mr. Namikaze, the Masked Man, shouldn't we stop them?"
Faced with Coulson's question, Minato Namikaze shook his head. "It's not that we don't need to stop it, it's that we can't stop it."
"That was the perfect opportunity to catch him, but he escaped using a cunning trick."
Upon hearing this, Wu Chen immediately apologized, "Master Minato, I'm sorry, I've held you back."
Minato Namikaze. "It's not your fault. You've already done enough by defeating Kingpin. It was my oversight that prevented me from thinking things through."
Coulson interrupted their conversation, "So what do we do now?"
Before Minato Namikaze could answer, a red beam of light shot straight into the sky from Times Square!!
