Acting (Second Update)

"Master, we have detected more than a dozen spaceships following us."

Outside of Contraxia, as soon as the spaceship entered space, Wang Wang's advanced monitoring system detected more than a dozen Ravagers ships quietly taking off and activating their stealth capabilities to secretly catch up.

"Should we speed up and shake them off?"

"Let's teach them a lesson, that way they'll remember it."

Hawking appeared outside the spaceship in a flash, and then, like a meteor, rushed directly towards the Ravagers ships that had already opened their weapons and were preparing to attack.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

One punch, one spaceship; explosions rang out continuously. Any spaceship hit by Hawking's fist was even more devastated than one hit by a warship's main cannon, exploding into a pile of fragments.

And the Ravagers inside the spaceship, needless to say.

At the moment the spaceship exploded, it too turned into fragments, scattering into the vast universe along with the spaceship.

Are Ravagers good people?

In Hawking's view, at least most of them are not good people, and even if a few are not bad, they can only be said to be in a gray area.

Even the most ethical Ravagers abide by the rule against trafficking children, but they still rob, kill, and commit arson—in reality, they do just as much.

Those with no moral bottom line are capable of any cruelty. As long as they can make money, they have committed numerous Carnage, sparing neither the elderly nor children.

He showed mercy to Yondu and the others because of Star-Lord Yondu, but that doesn't mean he would show mercy to these greedy Ravagers who were eyeing him.

"I think it's best to avoid provoking him in the future."

Inside the spaceship, Star-Lord watched as Hawking effortlessly eliminated hundreds of Ravagers, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

Originally, in their eyes, Hawking was terrifyingly powerful, but his temper seemed quite good.

During the Kyln Prison break, not a single prison guard was killed. On the Dark Aster, even when facing the Kree, only Ronan was taken away; the other Kree Soldiers simply fell into a deep sleep.

Just now on Contraxia, when faced with Yondu's attacks, I only managed to block them.

I usually chat and laugh with them, and I've never gotten angry at Rocket Raccoon's occasional foul mouth.

What's more, the purpose of bringing them together, both financially and physically, is to stop Ego's conspiracy and save the entire Milky Way Galaxy.

However, they only discovered today that when Hawking really wanted to kill, he was quite ruthless. Hundreds of lives were wiped out in the blink of an eye, without any hesitation or pity.

"I'm a little scared now!"

Rocket Raccoon touched his triangular face. He had previously mocked Hawking for lacking a zest for life and being unfunny.

Gamora leaned against the glass, murmuring:

"That's how it has to be, that's how we can possibly defeat Thanos. If we're too kind, we won't be able to kill someone as cruel as Thanos."

"Being killed like this, without any pain, I think is already very good."

Nebula touched her prosthetic eye and mechanical arm.

Every time Thanos loses a battle with Gamora, he punishes her by removing something from her body. Half of her organs have been replaced by machines.

That kind of pain is far more terrifying than death; it's truly worse than death.

So deep down, she always wanted to tear Thanos to pieces and make Thanos taste the pain she had endured.

"What a man! A real man!"

When Drax saw Hawking destroy a spaceship with a single punch, he wasn't afraid at all. Instead, he shouted excitedly, looking every bit like a devoted fan.

He loves the feeling of every punch landing on you.

"It feels pretty good to stretch my muscles and joints!"

After spending a few seconds dealing with the Ravagers ships, Hawking, who Shunpo back, looked completely satisfied.

Solo training is never as fun as real combat; this is probably something that's ingrained in the Saiyan.

"Is that my father? Fuck, he really is a ball!"

Star-Lord, watching Ego's Planet gradually emerge in the distance, couldn't help but swear.

Hawking's eyes gleamed with a sharp light; he sensed an immense amount of life energy emanating from that Ego's Planet.

Knowing that such a vast amount of life energy could be used to plant a Divine Tree, it would definitely yield excellent fruit.

By absorbing the fruit containing the life energy of the entire Ego's Planet, his entire life level will be broken through.

After all, life on Ego's Planet may be as ancient as this universe, and he also created clones to travel to almost every planet in the universe with intelligent life, collecting the genes of these intelligent beings.

Ego's Celestial Power is actually somewhat similar to the power of the Celestials; both are creative powers that allow him to create anything at will, even life itself.

The Divine Tree Fruit is formed by collecting all the life force and life imprints of a planet. Only by consuming it can one make up for one's own deficiencies and evolve.

The special Celestial Power of Ego's Planet, along with the life imprints he recorded while traveling to various planets, were condensed into the Divine Tree Fruit.

While it certainly can't compare to absorbing all the planets in the universe, Divine Tree Fruit condensed from an ordinary planet.

How effective it is, you'll only know after you try it.

So now, to be honest, he's actually a little excited!

"Change your clothes!"

With a wave of his hand, Hawking transformed everyone's clothes into distinctive Ravagers uniforms.

"You remember what to say, right?"

"Don't worry, lying is just commonplace for us."

Star-Lord had a confident look on his face.

According to Hawking's plan, from now on, they will all be Ravagers.

Star-Lord is the leader of this Ravagers team. He learned some information about his biological father from Yondu, so he led his Ravagers brothers, Moe, across the galaxy to find his father.

"No problem."

Gamora and Nebula nodded in agreement; both of them were spies and had excellent acting skills.

Rocket Raccoon's intelligence is off the charts, so that's not a problem for him either.

Groot a bit slow-witted but not stupid, and only Rocket can understand his language, so it's not a big problem.

Finally, only Drax was left.

"Of course I know, we're going to blow this planet up, right!"

"I'm reporting that Drax was asleep when you were talking about the plan."

Rocket laughed heartily.

Hawking shook his head:

"Fine, I didn't expect you to be an actor anyway, so let's just modify your memories for now."

With a gentle tap on Drax's head, the memories related to Ego in his mind were immediately sealed, and a new memory entered his mind.

Hawking implanted the fabricated lies into Drax's brain using False Memory Charm, so that Drax would believe they were true and therefore wouldn't make mistakes.

"That's terrifying!"

Seeing this, everyone's awe of Hawking grew even stronger.

Being powerful is already terrifying, but being able to erase and modify other people's memories is even more terrifying.
