Prune Me? Who the Hell Do You Think You Are!
Laugh--!
Three Pruning Baton radiating a deadly orange light pierced Jiang Li's body from every angle.
There was no loud noise, no shockwave.
The Time Variance Authority (TVA)'s weapons don't focus on physical destruction; they only aim to Concept Erasure. Upon contact, the target's physical structure and timeline are instantly stripped away and thrown into the Void the end of time.
A cold smile curled at the corner of the guard's mouth beneath his mask.
It's over. No matter how strong this variable was, it would only turn into a pile of ashes in the face of the rules of TVA.
However.
The scene that Jiang Li was expected to be swallowed by the orange light did not occur.
A deep green and dark red energy field erupted from the Omnitrix on Jiang Li's left wrist!
TVA's proud cutting energy, when applied to this force field, is like water droplets falling onto a red-hot iron plate.
Two "sizzling" sounds.
It evaporated completely in an instant!
"How is this possible?!"
The two guards holding the Pruning Baton gasped in shock, their pupils contracting instantly beneath their masks.
Even the Infinity Stones would become useless stones under the laws of TVA, yet this machine on a mortal's wrist actually withstood the erasure of time?!
"Surprised?"
Jiang Li sat on the throne and slowly raised his head. Dark red light illuminated his violent eyes.
"You know nothing about power."
Jiang Li slammed his right hand down on the watch face with metal spikes on his left wrist.
Smack!
[Ultimate - Activate!]
Boom--!!!
The alloy floor of the lunar control room shattered with a deafening roar!
A terrifying behemoth, fifteen meters tall and covered in dark green heavy horny armor, rose from the ground!
His body was more sturdy and heavy than that of a normal Humungousaur. His back and shoulders were covered with sharp, silver bone spikes. The end of his tail had evolved into an extremely large bone meteor hammer.
The most horrifying thing was his arms.
Those were no longer the claws of dinosaurs, but two heavy biological launchers resembling Gatling guns!
On his chest, the enormous, dark red Omnitrix symbol gleamed with the light of death.
[Ultimate Humungousaur]!
"Reset him! Reset him immediately!"
The captain of the guard roared hoarsely, his inner arrogance instantly shattered by extreme fear.
More than a dozen TVA guards simultaneously raised their Pruning Baton and even pulled out Time Bomb that could slow down the Time Stream, frantically rushing towards the dark green behemoth.
The Ultimate Humungousaur lowered its head, its dark yellow vertical pupils filled with disdain.
He neither dodged nor evaded.
Bang!
A guard's Pruning Baton slammed into Jiang Li's leg armor.
"Snap."
The energy generator of the Pruning Baton overloaded and exploded. The thick, dark green horny armor didn't even leave a white mark. The laws of time didn't even qualify to break through its defenses.
That's it?
Jiang Li's thunderous, cold laughter echoed in the control room.
He raised his right arm. The armor at the front of his arm quickly retracted backward, revealing four thick bio-cannon barrels.
No need to charge up.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hundreds and thousands of bio-kinetic missiles, compressed from high-energy bone spurs, poured out like a torrential downpour!
This is no ordinary gunpowder explosion. Every biological missile, upon contact with its target, unleashes terrifying kinetic energy that tears apart microscopic structures.
"Ah--!!!"
The scream lasted only half a second.
The seven or eight TVA guards at the forefront, along with their high-grade riot armor that was said to be able to withstand time turbulence.
Under the intense bombardment of missiles, it was instantly torn into a cloud of blood mist and minced meat!
Limbs were torn apart, and blood stained the walls of the control room.
This isn't cutting; this is the bloodiest physical slaughter!
The remaining guards were utterly terrified. They finally realized that they were not facing a timeline error, but a god of death that could not be measured by ordinary standards!
"Retreat! Call for reinforcements from headquarters!"
Several guards turned and scrambled toward the orange teleportation portal.
"Since you're already here, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Jiang Li suddenly turned around.
The thick tail, with its massive bone mace, swept out with a deafening sonic boom that tore through the air!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It was like a baseball bat made of high-quality steel smashing several ripe tomatoes with all its might.
Four or five fleeing guards were struck by the tail, their bodies exploding in mid-air. The sound of bones shattering was chilling.
Just ten seconds.
The entire elite TVA squad of fifteen men was wiped out, except for the captain of the guard. Not even a single intact body was left.
Dead silence.
The only sounds in the control room were the strong stench of blood and the heavy breathing of the Ultimate Humungousaur.
The captain of the guard collapsed in a pool of blood.
His black mask had shattered, revealing a human face covered in blood and filled with extreme terror.
His hand gripping the Time Controller trembled violently. On the screen, the timeline representing this universe was jumping wildly, and TVA's erasure command was completely blocked.
"Monster... what kind of monster are you...?"
The captain of the guard looked up at the fifteen-meter-tall, dark green behemoth before him, his worldview completely shattered.
Swish.
A dark red light flashed.
The massive body of the Ultimate Humungousaur dissipated, and Jiang Li reverted to his human form.
He strode up to the captain of the guard. His boots made a sticky sound as they stepped on the blood-soaked floor.
Jiang Li did not kill him.
He reached out, grabbed the captain of the guard by the hair, and dragged this once arrogant "Gardener of Time" from the pool of blood like a dead dog.
"Is this how you TVA usually arrest people?" Jiang Li stared into his eyes, his tone cold.
The captain of the guard, his face covered in blood, gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Jiang Li sneered and turned his head away.
His gaze fell on the orange TVA portal in the center of the control room, which was still open.
On the other side of the door lies an absolute central hub, transcending all Marvel Universe, existing in a timeless the Void, and believing itself to hold the power of life and death over all things.
In the past, when superheroes saw this door, they either ran away or were forcibly dragged inside to face judgment.
But Jiang Li is different.
"You're right, the timeline of this universe is indeed a bit messed up."
Jiang Li grabbed the guard captain by the neck and strode toward the orange light gate.
The cruel smile on his lips grew wider. The Omnitrix on his left wrist emitted a bloodthirsty hum.
"So, I've decided to go to your police station..."
"I'll smash your timeline to pieces too."
Without any hesitation.
Jiang Li, carrying the half-dead captain, stepped directly into the TVA portal!
