I Am Deadpool

Among them.

What Leon was most satisfied with was the Super Elastic Fiber Underwear he had signed in for after getting in touch with Dr. Bruce Banner.

It never wore out!

For that attribute alone, Leon was willing to call it a divine artifact. Not to mention that it could perfectly protect his little brother from injury—it was practically a super-divine artifact!

The toughest thing on Leon's entire body right now was this pair of briefs.

A long-awaited haul.

The Regeneration Cradle had arrived ahead of schedule.

Knowing its true function, Leon immediately came up with a complete plan to strengthen himself. But when he thought of all its finer points, he made the same mistake Tony had.

Without realizing it, he left Zhao Hailun hanging. Yet she herself did not seem to mind; instead, she had her own little thoughts.

She secretly glanced up at Leon, then quickly lowered her head again. She looked extremely guilty, but after doing it several times and seeing no reaction from him, she gradually grew bolder and began openly sneaking peeks at him.

It was not until Sharon Kate pushed open the door, dressed in a purple bodycon skirt and sheer black stockings, that Zhao Hailun let out a tiny squeak and hurriedly lowered her head again.

But this time.

Leon, having snapped out of his thoughts, caught her little movements.

Interesting~

The corner of Leon's mouth curled up as he beckoned Sharon Kate over.

"Kate, I'm setting up an independent department for Helen to specialize in 3D bioprinting technology. Go gather people and organize it now, then hand things over to her later."

"Understood, Mr. Leon."

Sharon Kate replied and immediately went out to make preparations.

Other than using it himself or when someone close to him was gravely injured, Leon did not intend to reveal that he possessed the Regeneration Cradle.

That was because it was patented technology Zhao Hailun was currently researching, and it had not yet been completed. If Leon openly took it out and used it, it would be difficult to explain where it had come from.

So it was still necessary to let Zhao Hailun develop the Regeneration Cradle along its normal path.

It was the result of her hard work. She ought to be the one to complete it.

Of course.

If it had been a man or some ugly bastard, that would have been a different matter.

"Mr. Leon, thank you for your support and recognition. I'll definitely work hard to complete the Regeneration Cradle. I won't let you down."

Zhao Hailun promised, her eyes filled with gratitude as she looked at Leon.

"I believe in you."

Leon encouragingly patted Zhao Hailun on the shoulder, then leaned close to whisper in her ear, "You can ask me directly for anything you need, as long as it's something I can provide."

"Don't feel embarrassed about it, Helen. You should be more confident. In my eyes, you're a genius who is in no way inferior to Tony."

"You have that kind of value."

"You deserve it, understand?"

"Good girls with such lofty ambitions are hard to come by."

"Your insightful views have benefited me greatly as well."

"You have great potential. Great potential indeed."

"I'm not that amazing~"

After Leon showered her with praise, Zhao Hailun lowered her head shyly, keeping her face buried in her chest the entire time, too embarrassed to meet his eyes.

"Um... actually... today is my birthday. I was wondering if you have time tonight... Ah! What am I even saying?"

"No!"

"I mean, you're my idol. Could you give me an autograph?"

Zhao Hailun stammered incoherently. In the end, she fumbled out a photo she had kept close to her body from inside her collar—a photo of Leon dressed in the Soldier Boy Suit while portraying Homelander—and held it out to him.

"Of course."

The moment Leon finished signing it, Zhao Hailun immediately bowed goodbye to him. Then she used the one Flash she had in her lifetime and hurriedly fled the scene that made her want to die of embarrassment.

"Youth really is something~"

Watching Zhao Hailun's panicked retreating figure, Leon's lips curled up slightly as he could not help but sigh.

After a long while.

He withdrew his gaze.

It was time to get down to business.

"Arcee, how far are we from South Sudan?"

Leon asked.

"12,665 kilometers."

Arcee's mature, commanding voice came through Leon's Bluetooth earpiece.

"Over twelve thousand kilometers..."

Leon made a rough estimate. At his current speed, so long as nothing delayed him, the round trip would take about two and a half hours. Time-wise, he should make it.

Africa, South Sudan, Salva Giant Wharf.

This place had once been a tributary of a great river running across Africa's inland plate. Later, through the ebb and flow of tides and the power of time, it dried up into the yellowish swamp it was today.

More than a dozen rusty, stranded cruise ships lay scattered about.

It was now occupied by Vibranium smuggler Ulysses Klaue.

It had become his headquarters for illegal activities.

Since Vibranium was extremely difficult to obtain, Ulysses Klaue had also developed a business dealing conventional weapons. In short, he had his hands in every dirty job that could make big money.

Today.

Ulysses Klaue received a super client who had demanded all the Vibranium in his possession.

And he was openly planning to acquire it for zero dollars.

Bye Bye Bye♫

Accompanied by an intense BGM, Leon, clad in the Super Deadpool Suit and carrying the Carbona Alloy Twin Blades on his back, made a dazzling entrance surrounded by Ulysses Klaue and dozens of his lackeys.

--The opening of Deadpool 3 could be inserted here.

"You're trying to pull a zero-dollar acquisition on me? Didn't you ask around about what happened to the people who tried to black-eat-black me?"

"Wow~"

"I'm so scared~"

Deadpool Leon stood pigeon-toed like a bashful young girl, twisting his body awkwardly. His smug, irritating tone had the mockery turned all the way up.

At the sight, Ulysses Klaue's eye twitched hard twice. He snarled, "He doesn't have a gun. Take him alive! I'm going to personally kill this sour-turnip bitch!"

At his command, the lackeys around Ulysses Klaue rushed Leon all at once, armed with daggers, brass knuckles, and spiked clubs!

Leon's lips curled up.

He allowed himself to be swallowed by the sea of people.

Then.

"Star Burst Stream!"

The moment Leon drew his twin blades, the entire abandoned cruise ship trembled.

Amid flashing blades and sword shadows.

Countless severed limbs exploded outward from Leon as their center. Every swing of his blade easily took several people with it, as if their bodies were more fragile than tofu dregs.

The battle.

Was completely one-sided slaughter.

Someone tried to fire a gun.

But Leon sliced both the gun and its owner in half with a single swing.

Very quickly.

The dozens of people surrounding Leon had all become ghosts beneath his blades.

At that moment.

How could Ulysses Klaue still fail to realize that Leon was no soft target?

"Shit!"

"He's a super soldier!"

"Stop going up there to die! Shoot him dead!"

As he shouted, Ulysses Klaue himself snatched an AR-15 rifle from a nearby lackey and began spraying bullets at Leon.

Seeing this, Leon deflected bullets with his twin blades while advancing toward Ulysses Klaue.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The ringing crash of bullets striking steel sounded without end.

At first.

Ulysses Klaue really thought Leon had blocked every bullet he fired with his blades.

But when he noticed Leon's suit constantly tearing and then restoring itself, Ulysses Klaue immediately sensed that something was wrong--

Bullets could not hurt this guy at all! Was he putting on an act for me?

"What kind of monster are you?!"

"I am Deadpool."

When Leon reached Ulysses Klaue while shaking his head and flicking his blades, all the lackeys around him had already been slaughtered.

Some stragglers farther away had also been scared out of their wits by Leon's brutal display. They all lay on the ground, cosplaying as corpses.

"Vibranium."

Leon placed a blade against Ulysses Klaue's throat and said in a low voice.

"Don't get excited!"

"I'll give it to you, all of it!"

Ulysses Klaue hurriedly said.
