Stand Back, Let Me Handle This (First Update)

"Mr. Hawking, as you can see, I only deployed a mere twenty-six Sentinel, while your twenty-six finalists are already finding it difficult to cope."

"And now... I still have over ten thousand Sentinel at my disposal, I think you should be able to give me a satisfactory answer."

The first Sentinel Robots flew to Hawking's side, watching the fierce battle on the arena below, its tone full of the confidence of someone in complete control.

Even though the outcome of the battle between the 26 Sentinel Robots and the 26 finalists is not guaranteed, and even if Captain Marvel is not in top form, Thor, Captain Marvel fought her to a standstill before, is still a tough opponent.

But that doesn't matter. Winning would be more impactful, but if he can stay like this even without winning, he'll have achieved his goal.

He proposed this competition to let Hawking and everyone else see the power of the Sentinel Robots, face reality, and then obediently join his ranks.

As for those stubborn individuals like Captain Carter, this is a good opportunity to identify and eliminate them all.

Hawking was unfazed by Pierce's words, but the high-ranking officials from various countries sitting on the platform were extremely uncomfortable.

If Hawking agrees, then regardless of whether the Afterlife will actually be ruled by Hydra in the future, these people are definitely doomed.

So now they are wiping their sweat while silently praying that Hawking will not agree.

Actually, they wanted to escape when things went wrong, but the Sentinel Robots had already quickly surrounded the entire arena, and anyone who tried to leave would be forcibly brought back.

The audience members also focused their attention on Hawking, and all the cameras were pointed at Hawking.

Because they now understand that Hawking may be their only hope. Just as the voice said, twenty-six robots were already able to fight twenty-six strong opponents like this, while there were still more than ten thousand of the same robots in the air.

Although they knew in their hearts that even Hawking could not possibly defeat more than 10,000 such terrifying robots.

But they still held onto some hope, because Hawking was Super Hero who had saved the world, and perhaps he could create the Miracle again, just like in those Super Hero comics.

Looking at the expectant eyes below, Hawking knew the time was right.

Suddenly, he burst into laughter, raising his head to the sky:

"Hahahaha, you really are a clown. You really think you can threaten me like this? You really think that the Hero Alliance will bow down to you evil forces because of threats?"

Tell him what the rules of the Hero Alliance are!

"We must never tolerate evil, uphold world peace, and protect the Earth!"

All the Hero Alliance staff below, seeing that Hawking had flatly rejected Pierce, shouted in response excitedly.

Many of them initially chose to join the company because of the extremely high salaries offered by the Hero Alliance.

But after they actually joined the company, they realized that they would have been willing to join even without such good benefits.

Because this is not just a job, but a noble cause; it truly protects the vulnerable, fights crime, and maintains world peace.

If you walk down the street and say you're a member of the Hero Alliance, everyone will look at you differently. That kind of spiritual satisfaction is sometimes more captivating than money.

So they were actually quite nervous just now, fearing that their most admired Hawking, their most revered Super Hero, would agree to join Hydra, which would cause their faith to collapse.

Fortunately, Hawking never disappointed them, which is why they were so excited.

Even if they all die here today, it will be worth it as long as Hawking doesn't surrender.

"Defeat Hydra, and the Hero Alliance will prevail!"

The audience was also moved by the emotions of the Hero Alliance staff, and they all stood up and shouted loudly.

Nick Fury, who had been hiding among the audience, couldn't help but mutter to himself as he witnessed the scene:

"Maybe I really should believe him, and believe in the Hero Alliance."

Given the current situation, it's truly moving that Hawking and the entire Hero Alliance still stand firmly on the side of justice.

Many viewers in front of their televisions had tears in their eyes, and quite a few were even moved to tears.

In their view, Hawking and the Hero Alliance could not possibly defeat more than 10,000 terrifying robots, yet they still did not yield, even when Hydra offered such terms.

If anyone ever says anything about the threat of the Hero Alliance online again, they'll be bombarded with criticism until they question their very existence.

As Hero Alliance has become increasingly popular, a "Hero Alliance threat theory" has emerged online, which argues that the existence of the Hero Alliance poses a threat to humanity from various perspectives.

The saying goes, "Where there are Super Hero, there is disaster; it is the existence of Super Hero that brings disaster."

The idea that superpowered beings are different from humans is actually a disease that will eventually turn against humanity.

It's basically all sorts of exaggerated and misleading statements.

Unfortunately, it did fool a group of brainless people, but fortunately it was only a small number and did not cause too much impact.

However, if something bad happens to the Hero Alliance at any time, and with the help of malicious people, these comments may be amplified infinitely, ultimately causing Hero Alliance's reputation to plummet.

However, after this incident, it's estimated that no one will believe those statements anymore. If anyone spreads them again, even without the Hero Alliance taking action, the entire world will not let them off the hook.

It's important to know that there are still many righteous super hackers in the world.

"Holy crap, is it really that effective?"

After Hawking finished speaking, he paused for a moment, looking at the excited staff and audience below.

He just wanted to put on a little show so that people would have more faith in the Hero Alliance, but he didn't expect it to work so well.

The incident happened suddenly, without prior notice to the employees. He was worried that the employees wouldn't cooperate and that things would get awkward. After all, in many similar incidents in the past, the company would prepare a script in advance and have someone else act as a shill to stir up the emotions of the audience.

"Fine, fine, I didn't expect you to dare to play me. I'd like to see how many of my Sentinel Robots you can handle today!"

Pierce was clearly angered by Hawking's answer.

He wanted to use Hawking as a tool, but since the tool was disobedient, it had to be destroyed, which was a pity.

"Step back, let me handle this!"

Hawking ignored Pierce and flashed to the center of the ring.

"Shinigami Mode!"

Without loading the Ichigo Kurosaki template, Hawking fused the power of the Reaper within him with his Chakra, unlocking a new mode.
