Roar!

"!!!"

Facing Tyrant's Blade as it came crashing down like a mountain, Steve Rogers's pupils contracted sharply, and he instinctively raised his shield to block.

Boom—

Even with the Vibranium Shield perfectly dispersing the force, Tyrant's Blade in Thanos's hand still suppressed Steve Rogers until he had no choice but to drop to one knee and brace himself with all his strength.

"Oh? You actually blocked it?"

Thanos raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. "Though you relied on that shield, I have to admit, Steve Rogers, you are indeed an exceptionally outstanding warrior."

Thanos abruptly pulled back Tyrant's Blade, then brought it down again with savage force.

Steve Rogers felt as though he had been struck head-on by a Hundred-Ton King. Blood spilled uncontrollably from his mouth, and the Vibranium Shield nearly flew from his grasp, but he still forced himself to hold on. He even tried to rise and counterattack.

Terrifying spiderweb cracks began appearing across the
