Metal Fish Hunting Competition
"Little brother, you really were here!"
For Loki, this statement was a curse.
This is because it's his Thor's catchphrase, and it always comes up when Loki is feeling triumphant.
As soon as Thor utters those words, he will descend from the sky and begin to ramble on and on, using utterly unseemly violence to stop Loki from accomplishing his goal.
This time was no exception. Thor, as usual, was struck by lightning and landed in front of Loki with his hammer, earnestly trying to persuade him to change his mind.
Just like in the past thousand years, the two, who loved and hated each other, couldn't see eye to eye and soon began a loving struggle.
Thor and Loki fought to a draw.
Loki knew, of course, that Thor had shown him mercy. After all, he was a sorcerer who also served as an assassin, while Thor was a heavily armored warrior. In a face-to-face fight like this, Loki had no chance of winning.
Okay, even with Thor showing mercy, Loki still couldn't beat his brother and was about to be completely humiliated.
So Loki feigned repentance, distracting Thor with sincere words, and then suddenly pulled out Dagger and plunged it into his brother's waist.
Thor screamed in agony, gasping for breath.
Asgardians are physically robust, with a body density several times that of Earthlings.
Thor, as the Thor of Asgard, possesses physical strength far exceeding that of Asgardians, making him completely invulnerable to weapons.
To harm Thor, one would need Divine Weapon imbued with divine power, or a weapon entirely formed from divine power—such rare entities.
Dagger capable of directly stabbing Thor in the kidneys is even rarer.
It's unknown how long it took Loki to acquire this Dagger, or how much effort he put in.
Even worse, Thor discovered that the wound showed no signs of healing, and the bleeding did not slow down at all.
Clearly, the Dagger was also afflicted with a curse.
Leiting is a power to exorcise evil spirits and banish demons. Just imagine how difficult it is to work against a curse that can affect Thor. Loki must have put in a lot of effort for this.
Feeling the pain of his blood flowing and his wounds throbbing, Thor finally lost his temper. He no longer held back, swinging his hammer and knocking Loki off his Antler Helmet.
Loki wasn't stupid. Feeling the weight of the blow, he knew he had no chance of winning. So he rolled backward, jumped off the building, and boarded Chitauri aircraft to leave.
He ran so fast that he didn't even bother to pick up the fallen Mind Scepter.
Just as Thor was clutching his wound, grabbing his hammer to chase after Loki, a deep roar came from the sky.
The massive sonic shock Shattering the glass curtain wall of the nearest building, sending countless shards of glass raining down, causing immense chaos and considerable casualties.
People were drawn to look up and saw a giant, semi-mechanical fish emerging from the Spatial Passage, struggling to squeeze through.
The passageway, which could accommodate dozens of cannon fodder soldiers, was completely filled by the enormous size of the swimming fish. When the edge of its body came into contact with the Spatial Passage, it was immediately shattered by the spatial force.
When a giant fish is injured, it will open its blood-red mouth the Roar with a deafening howl.
The Metal Fish, larger than a whale, took several minutes to squeeze through, its body covered in wounds.
Unexpectedly, after entering Earth, the enormous body of the Metal Fish floated in mid-air, swinging its tail fin as if it were in water, and swam freely.
The appearance of this enormous monster made Thor frown, his expression becoming more serious than ever before, and he even temporarily forgot about his brother.
Thor, the god of war, temporarily forgot his personal feelings and entered a state of war upon seeing the Metal Fish.
The Earth's Avengers also saw the Metal Fish, but they all fell silent.
Megalophobia is human nature. No matter how outstanding the Avengers are, they cannot get rid of this instinct without going through arduous trials.
Before the Avengers could even process the shock, one after another, equally enormous Metal Fish followed them in, leaving them speechless and filled with a sense of powerless defeat.
Shazo and the others were also watching this scene.
Shazo had already witnessed the hundred-meter- Susanoo, the even taller Sage Art: Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands Buddha, and even the Ten-Tails, which was hundreds of meters tall, and the God Tree that blotted out the sky, through Naruto Shazo.
Seeing these plump fish, no more than a hundred meters long, Shazo thought they were quite cute.
Well, this thing looks big, but it's actually just an empty shell of a transport ship. It doesn't have any cool plasma cannons, or even missiles, bombs, or Laser guns.
Its only firepower consisted of the infantry's handheld weapons.
It must be said that the Chitauri took extreme measures in warfare, but their actual strength was truly lacking.
Skye had never experienced war and lacked life experience, so it was natural for her to find it difficult to suppress her primal instincts of terror.
--
Abomination had, in a sense, become a different species, shedding its human weaknesses. Relying on instinct to determine that the giant fish posed no threat to it, it began to admire the Metal Fish with great interest.
Norman Osborn was a shrewd businessman with a wealth of experience, but most of it involved scheming against people and at most hiring hitmen; he had never experienced a war like this.
But he had excellent mental fortitude, able to keep his mind steady and silently calculate how he should fight.
Shazo, through [Mantra], clearly sensed everyone's mindset and couldn't help but find it amusing.
This alien war is not only the Avengers ' first appearance, but also the Shazo Legion's first appearance. We can't let our mentality affect our performance.
Just as he was figuring out how to boost morale, Skye called him through the special Communicator she had made for him.
Shazo answered, "Steven, are you referring to the alien invasion of New York?"
Steven Rockefeller sighed, "Shazo, your wisdom is always astonishing."
The Rockefeller patriarch asked solemnly, "Can we win?"
Shazo calmly replied, "I'm in Manhattan right now, of course I can win."
Steven breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, Shazo, please help us win."
Shazo chuckled, "Alright, if you can see the scene now, watch it carefully. I'll give you some confidence."
After hanging up the call, Shazo said to Skye and Norman, "I'm giving you some confidence too."

After saying that, Shazo reached out and grabbed at the air, activating [Electromagnetic Control].
The Metal Fish, which had been swimming freely and leisurely in the air, suddenly shuddered and stopped in place.
On the scale of a 100-meter-long Metal Fish, this is an ordinary sudden stop, but for the infantrymen inside the fish, it is a sudden drop from 120 miles per hour to zero.
This time, Shazo deliberately only caught the giant Metal Fish, so the Chitauri infantry were thrown away like trash.
From a distance, it looks like a giant Metal Fish shedding a layer of sand.
Shazo's hand turned slightly, and the Metal Fish spun at the same angular velocity, throwing out more Chitauri infantry.
Shazo clenched his fist tightly, and the Metal Fish shrank in sync, squeezed by the terrifying magnetic force into a solid metal lump with a diameter of no more than 10 meters.
All the liquids and other substances that were originally inside were ejected outwards under immense pressure.
High pressure generates high temperature, which ignites all the organic matter inside the Metal Fish Metal Fish, including the energy source and biological proteins that power it.
Then, a huge Fireball appeared in the sky, stunning everyone, including the Chitauri.
Stark asked in utter horror, "JARVIS, what happened?"
[Mr. Stark, I've detected a magnetic field, a magnetic storm comparable to that of a solar prominence.]
"JARVIS, can you pinpoint the source of the magnetism?"
[Found him, it's Mr. Xia Zuo Dawson.]
Stark stared incredulously at Shazo on the small screen, even seeing him Teuchi.
He also discovered that as Shazo's fist clenched into a wave, the huge Fireball in the air lost its support, fell to the ground, and smashed down an unfinished building.
Stark snapped, "Damn it, I need to get away from him!"
Iron Man facing Shazo, who controls magnetism, is like Wolverine facing Magneto —it's an absolute battle of wills.
The thought that the other party could easily crush such a huge Metal Fish made him think that dealing with his 300-kilogram Iron Man Armor would be as simple as beckoning him with a flick of a finger and making him do an awkward dance.
Therefore, it's best to keep your distance.
Thor, standing atop Stark Tower, was so shocked by what he saw that he was almost speechless until the metal sphere fell, jolting him back to reality.
"No, I can't lose!" Thor swung his hammer. "I am the Thor of Asgard, I cannot lose to the people of Midgard!"
Suddenly, a thunderclap resounded in the clear sky, and a thick bolt of Inazuma shot out from Mjolnir, striking a Metal Fish directly.
A violent current flowed wildly along the metal frame, instantly killing all the infantrymen on board and destroying the control center of the golden Metal Fish.
Another Metal Fish was destroyed, its body crackling with electric arcs, emitting thick smoke and Kakkō, before plummeting from the sky to the ground.
Encouraged by Shazo's feat of easily crushing the Metal Fish, Skye overcame her instinctive fear, unleashing the potential of her cells. The Shockwave, amplified through layers of resonance, finally converged in her mouth.
[Thunder Sound Break]
The girl opened her red lips and puffed out her cheeks, shouting, "Thunder! Sound! Break!!"
The crisp sound wasn't loud, but it was clearly heard by everyone in Manhattan, making the girl the center of attention.
Invisible vibrations are not limited by the speed of sound because their propagation medium is not air, but a much harder space, and their speed exceeds Mach 100.
The girl shouted three thunderous cries, and the Metal Fish she had locked onto was struck by three Quake. The huge fish was as if it had been hit by a heavy hammer three times, and it disintegrated in mid-air, turning into countless parts.
The girl smiled after her successful strike, her hair damp with sweat and clinging to her forehead.
She smiled at Shazo, "Boss, I did it!"
Shazo reached out and ruffled Skye's hair, instantly drying her sweat and soothing the fatigue and pain caused by her all-out effort.
"Silly girl, you don't need to exert so much force. Quake are powerful, but they are also dangerous. Excessive force will harm you, just like a bowstring that has been released without resistance."
"From now on, you can't go all out right away. You have to start with an intensity you can completely handle, understand?"
Skye nodded seriously. "Yes, I've got it."
Shazo then looked at Norman: "Want to give it a try?"
Norman Osborn quickly shook his head. "No, no, my equipment isn't good enough, so I won't embarrass myself."
He had already calculated and confirmed that the strength of the Metal Fish was beyond his current capabilities.
"I'll just take care of those small fry."
Shazo gave a thumbs up. "As expected of Norman Osborn, wise!"
Seeing Skye successfully destroy the Metal Fish, Abomination was overcome with rage and shouted, "I! Abomination! I'm going to kill this big fish!"
He leaped with all his might, about to pounce on a Metal Fish that was diving towards him.
But Shazo, his face darkening, grabbed the Abomination from mid-air and pulled it back. Then, he extended his left hand, locked onto the charging Metal Fish, and activated [Storm Release: Hundred Forms: Light Fang].
Hundreds of Laser- like beams of Storm Release pierced through the Metal Fish, breaking the giant monster into three pieces, which then crashed onto the wide road.
Shazo unleashed a torrent of abuse on the Abomination he had pulled back, beating him mercilessly. "What's gotten into you today?"
"Don't forget, you underwent a full set of tests. The maximum impact you can withstand is 1600 tons. Exceeding that number would be life-threatening, and even I wouldn't be able to save you."
"This Metal Fish, though not as heavy as an aircraft carrier, still weighs a hefty 18,000 tons and is flying at 120 miles per hour. Can you possibly stop it?"
"Does he really think he's the Hulk?"
Once he came to his senses after being Abomination, he realized that his impulsive actions had been suicidal, so he lowered his head and didn't dare to utter a single word.
Just then, everyone heard a thunderous roar, "Hulk!!"
The Hulk leaped high into the air, using the building's exterior wall as leverage to jump again, and then punched the Metal Fish that was weaving between the buildings.
[Ten Dragons and Ten Elephants]
Unlike the original Hulk, who was propelled and slid dozens of meters by Metal Fish, the Hulk who has mastered the "Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill" can knock back an enemy with a single punch in mid-air without retreating an inch.
This proves that Hulk has reached a level of unparalleled mastery in controlling his own power.
The tenth level of the "Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill" can increase the power of Ten Dragons and Ten Elephants, but for Hulk, it is just a drop in the ocean and not worth mentioning.
On the contrary, the improvement in his control over his own power was of great use to Hulk, and he truly became a powerful being who could break through all laws with his own strength.
Seeing everyone destroy the Metal Fish one after another, the arrogant Stark could no longer hold back. He selected a giant fish that had just passed through the Spatial Passage and unleashed a barrage of micro missiles, armor-piercing rounds, shoulder-mounted heavy rounds, chest-mounted particle cannons, and powerful Laser, which directly blasted the Metal Fish to pieces.
[Mr. Stark, it's unwise of you to exhaust all your weapons like this.]
"Shut up, JARVIS, Iron Man won't lose to anyone!"
