Cooperation Benefits Both

Returning to the first floor, Hawking discovered that Wolverine, Deathstrike, and Shingen Yashida were still fighting.

Given Wolverine and Deathstrike's strength, even if Shingen Yashida wore Adamantium Armor, he probably wouldn't be a match for them.

While the Adamantium Armor is indeed indestructible, it is not cast in one piece. Instead, it is made into armor parts first and then assembled.

Inside, there is a power system and various fragile machine parts.

As long as the opportunity is seized, the armor can be separated and disassembled directly without actually breaking through the Adamantium defense.

The main reason why they haven't been able to take it down is because of those two Adamantium longswords.

It wasn't just that Shingen Yashida swordsman; more importantly, the two swords had been fitted with a mechanism by the Viper that, once activated, could bring them to extremely high temperatures.

The Adamantium cleaver, heated to a high temperature, possesses immense destructive power, making it difficult even for Wolverine and Deathstrike's Adamantium Claws to withstand.

That's why the two of them fought so cautiously.

"At this rate, who knows how long this will last?"

Seeing that the three were deadlocked, Hawking simply raised his hand and pointed:

"Expelliarmus!"

A blue beam of magical light struck Shingen Yashida, sending him flying. The two long swords in his hands flew out of his grasp uncontrollably.

The Disarming Charm not only makes enemies drop their weapons, but also has a knockback effect.

"Accio!"

With a wave of his hand, the two Adamantium -infused longswords flew up and landed in his hand.

"Alright, you can continue."

The two swords were of different lengths; the longer one was a samurai katana, and the shorter one was a wakizashi, which resembled a dagger.

Because these two swords are designed to be used with a four-meter-tall Silver Samurai, the katana is over two meters long and the wakizashi is nearly one meter long.

Hawking was quite optimistic about these two knives.

It is made of Adamantium, making it indestructible, and it also has a high-temperature heating function, which is equivalent to technological enchantment.

He felt that even if he took it out to fight against some divine artifacts, he wouldn't lose.

Even with powerful artifacts, few can cut through Wolverine's Adamantium Claws.

In his memory, it was Thanos's Thanos Tyrant's Double-Edged Sword that had shattered Captain America's shield.

Holding this longer katana and activating its high-temperature heating effect, even if I were to clash with Thanos's Tyrant's Double-Edged Sword, I shouldn't be at a disadvantage.

While Hawking admired the two longswords, the winner was quickly decided below.

Without weapons, relying solely on hand-to-hand combat, how could Shingen Yashida possibly be a match for Wolverine and Deathstrike?

Soon his entire Adamantium Armor was stripped off, and he was left half-dead, clinging to the machine in the center of the armor, barely holding on to his last breath.

"No, this can't be! I can't die! I don't want to die! I want eternal life! I want the whole world to submit to my hands! I... I..."

With Wolverine severing the remote control's circuitry with a single swipe of his claw, without the machine to sustain it, Shingen Yashida's life came to an end.

Mariko walked up to the machine, looked at her grandfather who was barely clinging to life, and sadly shook her head, saying:

"You are not my grandfather. My grandfather died yesterday. You are just a monster with my grandfather's body."

Upon hearing Mariko's words, Shingen Yashida breathed his last.

"Someone's coming!"

However, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief because of Shingen Yashida's death, Wolverine seemed to sense something and immediately got up and looked out the window.

It was quite obvious that a dozen black cars suddenly drove into the village that had been leveled at the foot of the mountain.

"Could there be other enemies?"

The Deathstrike swiftly extended her claws, assuming a fighting stance.

Seeing this, Hawking waved his hand:

"They're not enemies; it must be someone from the company."

He had already made a phone call from his fighter jet when he arrived, arranging for people from his company to come over.

However, the purpose was not to have them help in the battle, but to have them come and transport all of Shingen Yashida's experimental equipment, data, and Adamantium raw materials back to China.

Sure enough, not long after, the Invisible Woman and the Thing, along with a group of low-level heroes from the company, appeared before everyone.

"If the contents of this research building were to fall into the hands of bad people, it would be extremely dangerous."

Susan, you and Ben are in charge of tidying up and taking West City back. There's a Mutants up there named Viper who will assist you.

After giving a brief instruction to Susan and Ben, who were leading the group, Hawking looked at Mariko:

"Miss Mariko, congratulations on becoming the head of the Yashida Family!"

"Mr. Hawking is joking. If it weren't for these events, I wouldn't want to be the head of the family at all."

And who knows how many more crises await me.

Mariko, having regained some composure, let out a heavy sigh.

With his grandfather keeping things under control, his father managing the business, and those skilled ninjas eliminating political enemies, naturally no one dared to mess with their family.

But now her grandfather and father are dead, and the ninja clan that has protected the Yashida Family for seven hundred years is gone, leaving only her, a girl with no prestige, to inherit the family business.

The key family's business appears to be thriving, but in reality, it is already weak inside because of the construction of this research building.

"In that case, has Mariko considered finding an ally to cooperate with?"

Hawking, who had anticipated Mariko's reaction, smiled.

"Ally?"

Mariko was taken aback.

Hawking pointed to himself:

"Yes, ally, if Mariko is willing to cooperate with Hero Alliance International Company, then the problems you are worried about will no longer be problems."

Hero Alliance International Company, while a global company, doesn't actually have many branches outside of New York.

Even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake. Unless one intends to plow through all the forces in every country and every city, many things will be difficult to carry out.

However, if we can partner with the number one family in the area, then it won't be a problem.

He can plug the financial loopholes in the Mariko family business, and he can also send Super Hero to deter those enemies who are eyeing the family.

Once Mariko establishes herself, then Hero Alliance will also establish itself in this country, a win-win situation.

"Mr. Hawking, are you really willing to help me?"

Mariko, realizing what was happening, immediately showed an excited expression on her face.

By this time, she had already learned Hawking's identity and knew that if Hawking was willing to help, her position as head of the family would be secure.

"Why is he helping me so much? Could it be that he has feelings for me?"

While she was excited, some strange thoughts also began to arise in her mind.

To be honest, deep down, she did have some good feelings towards Hawking.
