True Hulk Slash

The masked young man was, of course, Lu Yifang. He had picked up the mask just moments ago. Who had dropped it in the chaos was anyone's guess.

Lu Yifang wasn't stupid. There were obviously plenty of surveillance cameras here. He wanted to save people, but he wasn't ready to expose his face to the eyes of the whole world.

When he spotted Director Emma hiding in the corner, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He'd made it in time.

As a great weight lifted from Lu Yifang's heart, Hulk was completely dumbfounded. His brain might not have been the sharpest, but he knew his own strength. In his experience, buildings were basically no different from Styrofoam, and ordinary people were like paper.

The kid in front of him looked like an ordinary person who could be poked full of holes with a single finger, yet he had caught Hulk's hand. One slender, ordinary arm stood in stark contrast to the other green arm, which was thicker than a thigh. But to Hulk, that hand felt a hundred times harder than forged steel.

Hulk instinctively struggled, but the hand didn't budge. His immense strength was like a river flowing into the sea, unable to affect it in the slightest.

"Roar!" Hulk growled and punched at the black-haired young man. He clearly took Lu Yifang's actions as a provocation.

Then his enormous, wok-sized fist was caught by an open hand smaller than the fist itself.

Hulk was certainly strong, but Lu Yifang only needed to adjust the vectors. He could redirect Hulk's force downward, for instance, or split it into several parts and send them in different directions—up, down, left, and right. The force that should have struck Lu Yifang would become four conflicting forces and cancel itself out.

"Hulk, prepare to die." While Lu Yifang held Hulk as easily as a chicken, Abomination charged in from the other side.

Abomination had eyes only for Hulk. As for Lu Yifang, what was he supposed to be, some kind of accessory?

He was just an ordinary human, and Abomination didn't give him a second thought. He didn't care what Hulk was doing with the ordinary human. His underdeveloped brain could hold only one simple idea: tear Hulk apart. And now, he felt he was about to succeed.

With Abomination almost upon them, Hulk panicked and desperately tried to wrench his hand free. The concrete beneath his feet cracked from the struggle, but Lu Yifang's fingers didn't move an inch.

Just as Hulk was getting frantic, Lu Yifang suddenly spoke to him.

"Ready?"

Hulk: "???"

As Hulk stared at him in confusion, he suddenly felt an irresistible force yank him into the air. Lu Yifang grabbed him with both hands. With Abomination less than three meters away, he swung Hulk around in a full 360-degree spin.

"True Hulk Slash!" Lu Yifang growled, wielding Hulk as a weapon.

"Boom!" A deafening sonic boom rang out. The air seemed to warp, and Lu Yifang thought he faintly heard the crisp sound of bones cracking. Abomination was sent flying over a hundred meters. After sweeping through a row of cars, he carved a deep gouge across the street.

"Ptooey!" Abomination struggled out of the wreckage and tried to stand, but his legs gave way and he fell back to the ground, spitting blood. He had clearly suffered internal injuries.

Abomination's body was so tough that even if you slammed a tank into him, he'd feel like he was getting a free massage. Unfortunately for him, Lu Yifang had used Hulk, a "weapon" even tougher than he was.

"Hey, you okay?" Lu Yifang glanced at Hulk, who was lying on the ground. Abomination had taken a serious beating, but Hulk seemed to have gotten his bell rung too.

That saved Lu Yifang some trouble. He dragged Hulk along and started pulling him out of Howard Orphanage.

"Yifang, is that you?" Ms. Emma called out.

Although Lu Yifang wore a mask, after so many years together, how could Director Emma fail to recognize his back and voice? If what he was doing weren't so unbelievable, she probably wouldn't even have needed to ask.

Lu Yifang paused and turned to look at Director Emma. He gave a slight nod. "It's me, Ms. Emma."

"I'll take care of these two. Please see if anyone else is hurt."

"Okay, I understand." Director Emma quickly nodded.

She was puzzled by why Lu Yifang had become like Superman out of a comic book, but she knew this wasn't the time to think about it. The children's safety mattered most.

"Roar!" As Lu Yifang dragged the Green Giant out of Howard Orphanage, the dazed Hulk finally came to his senses. The first thing he did was punch Lu Yifang in the face.

"Hey, hey, big guy, look carefully. We're on the same side. That guy over there is our common enemy." Lu Yifang easily caught Hulk's fist and pointed at Abomination in the distance.

Hearing this, Hulk looked at Abomination, who had recovered, and clenched his teeth. In the end, he still lowered his fist. Compared to Lu Yifang, Abomination practically had a built-in taunt, drawing all the hatred imaginable.

Noticing Hulk's gaze, Abomination immediately got back to his feet. His healing ability wasn't much worse than Hulk's, and he had already recovered quite a bit in that short time.

"Hulk!" Abomination roared and charged at Hulk again. Hulk clenched his fists, ready to meet him, but Lu Yifang reached out and held him back.

"Let me handle it." Those two big guys crashing into each other caused far too much destruction. If one of them charged into the orphanage, that was the last thing Lu Yifang wanted.

Lu Yifang stepped in front of Hulk and faced Abomination, who was charging straight at him. He suddenly reached out, grabbed Abomination's arm, hoisted him over his shoulder, and spun around, slamming him into the ground.

"Boom!" The ground collapsed, forming a crater with cracks stretching more than ten meters.

Shoulder Throw—a technique Lu Yifang had learned from the White Queen. It was all show, though; he didn't understand the force-dispersal technique behind it at all. But he didn't need to. By manipulating vectors, he could turn Abomination's momentum into destructive force that slammed into the ground.

Hulk beside him also snapped out of it. He immediately grabbed a car nearby and rushed over, smashing it wildly into Abomination's face.

But even after Hulk smashed the car to pieces, all he'd managed to do was stuff Abomination's mouth with a few parts that made his teeth ache.

"This guy's body is too tough. Smashing him with a car is barely any different from hitting him with a pneumatic hammer." Lu Yifang shook his head, then suddenly turned his gaze toward Hulk.

"Want me to try you instead?" The Green Giant really was a handy weapon—tough, durable, with a wide range of impact, plus self-repair and a beastly roar that could scare people. Lu Yifang had to admit that the last swing had felt damn good.

At the expectant look in Lu Yifang's eyes, Hulk's mouth curled disdainfully. He raised a hand and flipped Lu Yifang the middle finger.
