Provocative Mutants
"Can you tell me what this Inhumans is all about?" Magneto asked.
Since there was someone in the know present, and one of Magneto's men, Black Super stated directly. "About five thousand years ago, the Kree used humans for experiments, hoping to turn humans who had not yet awakened their mutant abilities into controllable super soldiers."
"Although they succeeded, the plan was abandoned due to other flaws. What I have is only partial information." Of course, these words were somewhat reserved, since no one could verify them. He certainly had no intention of handing over the complete information.
Magneto then asked, "And what exactly are success and flaws?"
Black Super explained, "Genetically modified Inhumans need to be transformed using a stone called Terrigen Crystal. But what abilities they will ultimately gain, just like Mutants, depends on luck."
"Because of this uncertainty, it could not serve as a stable source of soldiers. Furthermore, the powerful Inhumans launched a rebellion, so the Kree abandoned the plan."
After thinking for a moment, Magneto asked, "Can we also use this Terrigen Crystal?"
Black Super shook his head in denial. "According to the information, in order to control the number of Inhumans and who can obtain the ability, and to ensure loyalty, the number of Terrigen Crystal, this man-made product, is limited and is only in the hands of a few people."
"Secondly, Terrigen Crystal are like poison to Mutants have awakened their abilities; they will kill Mutants. You should understand that."
"In order to weaponize a race, it's best to eliminate the uncontrollable parts to maintain its purity. Doing so also prevents those with similar levels of power from becoming enemies."
Magneto criticized, "These people are all the same." He then asked, "So, you intend to use the results of this research to realize my idea?"
Nodding, Black Super said, "Yes. I don't think you'd let me experiment on Mutants. So, taking other people's findings, extracting the parts we need, and adapting them to our plan is the easiest thing to do."
"Okay, I understand. Go for it, I'll support you," Magneto said resolutely.
Now that things have been discussed openly and permission has been obtained, there's nothing more for Black Super to worry about.
Just as he turned to pack his things and head into his lab for his work, a group of menacing-looking students in the back row simultaneously stood up. Someone called out, "Wait a minute."
Although he didn't think those guys who were dozing off the whole time could ask any questions, Black Super was there to answer them today, so he wouldn't be bothered to explain his every move later.
So, putting down the documents in his hand, the Black Super asked, "Is there anything you need me to answer? Please ask it today. After today, I may not have time to answer you all at once."
"I've heard you're very strong. I'm curious to know just how strong you are." The speaker was a burly man nearly two meters tall, with amber eyes and bright golden body hair.
Needless to say, his muscles were more exaggerated than those of a bodybuilder. His fingernails were like sharp claws; and when he opened his mouth to speak, you could see a pair of prominent canine teeth.
My first thought upon seeing the man in Black Super was, "Could this guy be Vampires? Or Mutants Vampires?"
"Sabretooth, don't cause trouble. He's no match for you," Magneto said seriously. Although his words weren't meant to incite conflict, they would likely make some arrogant individuals even more indignant.
But... Sabretooth? Oh, it was him.
The burly man grinned and said, "Magneto, what What If...? he's not strong enough and holds us back, or leaks our information to the government? I don't believe in his abilities just by talking."
"Never mind." Magneto, who was about to say something, turned to Henry and said, "Although I didn't want this to happen either, this guy is unkillable. Just teach him a lesson as you see fit. It'll make things easier for you two in the future."
Black Super laughed. "He's invincible, so you can be a little more unrestrained."
Whether it was the smile that provoked the Sabretooth or not, the blond giant suddenly leaped, displaying astonishing jumping ability, and his claws were about to scratch the Black Super.
The group of menacing men who had been with him earlier all wore smug expressions, anticipating the show to come.
No one expected that Black Super would use his incredible speed to grab the Sabretooth by the scruff of its neck and slam it to the ground. The loud thud would make anyone who heard it feel pain.
The second strike was a powerful blow to the back of the neck with the knuckle of the index finger. The aftereffect of the comminuted fracture of the vertebrae was that the Sabretooth was completely unable to move.
The Black Super, who had stepped aside, asked, "How about that? Does this prove that I meet your needs?"
Sabretooth's companions all looked on in disbelief. But when they saw the man on the ground struggling to his feet with his hands, they smiled smugly again.
"You damned bastard," the Sabretooth gritted its teeth.
Black Super surprised by this performance. How long had it been? Less than ten seconds? The comminuted fracture had healed.
Judging from the slow movements, he hasn't fully recovered yet. But it seems it's only a matter of time.
"So you really can't be killed. So self-healing is your mutant ability?" Black Super asked knowingly.
"Scared? I'll keep you company as long as you want." The Sabretooth grinned viciously.
Suddenly, the Black Super plunges a claw into the blond, muscular man's chest. Pulling it out, he finds a beating heart in his hand. He then pulls open the front of the mask and blows out a freezing breath, freezing the heart solid.
Not only were the people present stunned, but even Sabretooth himself was dumbfounded. He, who was almost standing up straight, suddenly knelt down.
Holding the frozen heart in his hand, Black Super laughed and said, "Consider this my spoils of war. I'm not giving it back to you. Besides, it looks like you won't need it."
The man who had been making sarcastic remarks noticed that the Sabretooth's chest had begun to heal. However, without its entire heart to pump blood throughout its body, the kneeling strongman was completely powerless.
"I'm going to kill you! I absolutely have to kill you!" The Sabretooth said, his teeth almost grinding to powder, enduring the excruciating pain.
"Oh, really?" Black Super didn't mince words, pulling out a second heart. He took another freezing breath, freezing it solid. He said, "The heart will be mostly restored in a minute. Your self-healing ability is truly astonishing."
The Sabretooth a miserable scream and had to lean against a chair to keep from falling. Now, his gaze towards the Black Super was somewhat cryptic, not entirely fierce.
The Black Super crouched down in front of him, a smile playing on his lips as he waited. This sight reignited the powerful Mutants's anger.
This time, Sabretooth didn't utter any more threats; he just glared at the man. Once his arm regained its strength, his killing intent surged, and he was about to kill Black Super with a single claw strike.
But the solid claws struck like hitting a metal ball, and the person's head didn't budge. At the same time, Black Super used his third grab, tearing out the Sabretooth's heart.
He also froze the organ, Black Super exclaimed, "Two minutes, and the heart is completely restored. Are you really without any damage? Interested in becoming an organ donor?"
"Enough!" Magneto and Mystique, who hadn't left, shouted simultaneously. The Sabretooth all looked like they'd seen a ghost, and there was no longer any thought of provocation.
Black Super asked, "Can I try to see how long it takes for my head to recover after I cut it off?"
"No!" Magneto and Mystique said in unison.
"You're such a cheapskate." Black Super clicked his tongue in disbelief.
