Above and Below Heaven
"Boom--!"
Tony's Dust Slash struck the crimson rune shield swirling around Supreme Doom once again! Blinding sparks of energy illuminated the entire sky!
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Dante's Rebellion slashed wildly like a madman, red demonic flames coiling around the blade, each strike accompanied by a shrill scream that tore through space, causing the shield to ripple wildly!
"Thump!" Steve's golden shield transformed into a streak of light, striking the point where the shield's energy flowed with pinpoint accuracy, causing the crimson light around Doom to momentarily falter!
The three of them were like perfectly coordinated gears!
Doom hovered at the core, his dark green Cloak fluttering even without wind, his scarlet electronic eyes flashing coldly. Facing the three's relentless onslaught, his hands moved with lightning speed, forming hand seals!
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Every time Dante's ferocious slash was about to strike his body, a runic shield would instantly appear to block it! Every time Tony's Sun Slash fell, a crimson beam of magic would precisely intercept and neutralize it!
Steve's tricky shield attack was cleverly deflected by an invisible spatial ripple!
"Insects! Trivial tricks!" Doom's icy voice came through the magical shield.
Stalemate!
Dust Slash! Rebellion! Leo Shield! Clashing fiercely with the magic of Supreme Doom!
The space was shattered into a chaotic energy vortex!
But Tony's heart was sinking!
Wrong!
His power... is rapidly waning!
The surging, powerful Yang Power within him, enough to scorch mountains and boil seas, was rapidly dissipating as if blocked by an invisible dam!
The light from his slashes dimmed noticeably, and the burning sensation diminished significantly! Even the liquid gold armor covering his body began to fade, revealing the original gold-red color of the nano-armor!
"Damn it..." Tony gritted his teeth and roared, unleashing another slash. The slash struck Doom's shield, only creating a small ripple, its power far less than the first!
Sweat soaked his temples; it wasn't from exhaustion, but from the depletion of his strength!
He looked up at the sky, which should have been bright and sunny, but all he saw were murky purple clouds stained by the flames of war and countless gunfire whizzing by!
There is no sun! He can't feel even a trace of the Yang Power! Escanor's power is leaving him!
Steve was even staggering!
The radiance of the Gold Leo Cloth has dimmed considerably!
Each throw of the Holy Shield, each strike of the golden fist, left him panting heavily, blood seeping from beneath his golden arm guards! His physical strength had reached its limit!
He was holding on entirely through sheer willpower! Sweat streamed down his forehead, blurring his vision, but he gritted his teeth, his golden shield still locked firmly on Doctor Doom!
Only Dante!
"Haha! That was awesome! Again!" Dante fought with increasing ferocity! His Devil Trigger phantom roared behind him!
The Rebellion seemed to come alive, slashing, hacking, cutting, and parrying with a ferocious ferocity that seemed to tear apart hell!
The clash of demonic flames and magic produced a piercing hiss! He withstood the bombardment of Doom's Red Devil, his arm muscles bulging, his sword blade clinging tightly to the shield, creating an opening for Tony and Steve!
"Rich guy! Old popsicle! Don't let me down!"
"Damn it! My power..." Tony roared in extreme resentment as he watched his power grow dimmer and dimmer! He felt weaker than ever before!
Just as Tony's power was about to be completely exhausted, and despair welled up in his heart!
Buzz--!
Above the heavens! The purple battlefield clouds were instantly torn apart by a tremendous force!
A massive, blazing sun Descent from the sky! Its divine Kamui was magnificent! Its light shone through the ages!
That wasn't an ordinary sun!
At the heart of that blazing sun, a sacred creature, its entire body flowing with flames like molten gold, was clearly visible!
It possesses the head of an eagle, the body of a lion, and wings burning with an inextinguishable holy flame! Majestic! Ancient! Sacred! As if it were the will of the sun that existed since the beginning of the universe!
Ra's Winged Dragon!
The Winged Dragon of Ra's burning golden eyes instantly locked onto the tiny Tony below!
A golden beam of light, imbued with the essence of the sun, tore through space, ignoring all obstacles, and poured precisely into Tony's body!
"Ughhh--!" Tony let out a long, earth-shattering roar!
It's the power of the sun!
Boom--!
Click! Click! Click!
The already massive three-meter-tall body expanded even further! Bones rumbled! Muscles bulged! In an instant, it broke through the three-and-a-half-meter mark!
The liquid golden armor on his body was burning wildly, with golden flames soaring into the sky!
Under extreme divine power, the nanostructures dissolved and vaporized, revealing the gnarled muscles beneath, forged like lava, flowing with a molten gold-like luster!
"Above and below heavens! I am the only one worthy of respect!!"
Tony's roar was like a solar storm, shaking the universe! It was Escanor's absolute declaration of his strongest minute at noon!
Boom!
He raised his right arm high, his palm transforming into a giant blade that tore the sky apart!
The purest and most extreme power of the sun god is concentrated upon it— the Holy Sword Escanor!
The unparalleled divine blade slashed fiercely down at the shield above Doom's head!
Thump--!
A terrifying force erupted! The crimson rune shield around Doom flickered wildly, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable strain!
Doctor Doom, who was suspended in the air, was forced to sink several meters by this enormous force!
The crimson electronic eye beneath the visor trembled violently for the first time, its astonishment barely concealed!
"Haha! I can't fall behind!"
Dante laughed wildly! Red Devil flames shot into the sky, instantly engulfing his entire body!
Bones twisted, demonic horns pierced the sky, and Demon Wings tore through the space behind them! The True Demon Descent! The Rebellion melted and was reshaped in demonic flames, transforming into the monstrous and raging Devil Sword Dante!
Demonic wings flap wildly! Speed surpassing light!
Dante transformed into a Red Devil, the tip of his Devil Sword Dante, burning with the fiery flames that tore through hell, striking precisely at the same point where Tony's Holy Sword had struck!
Click--!
A piercing cracking sound! Spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly across the multiple shields covering Doom!
"Ugh--!" Steve's eyes were bloodshot as he roared like a trapped beast! The light of his Gold Cloth was dimming and about to go out, but he used all his willpower to squeeze out the last bit of his strength!
His arms transformed into golden phantoms!
Plasma Lightspeed Fist - A Thousand Fists Collide!
In 0.001 seconds! Tens of thousands of golden fist shadows, powerful enough to shatter stars, bombarded the cracked shield nodes like billions of meteors!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The crack widened instantly! Like shattered glass!
"No—!" Doom cried out in shock and rage! He surged with magic in an attempt to repair the damage!
"Die!" Tony's eyes blazed with golden flames!
A blazing index finger aimed at the core crack, and a concentrated, destructive golden light instantly ignited—the Holy Lance, Escanor!
Laugh
The golden light at his fingertips, like a spear of Divine Punishment, pierced through the Void!
Bang--!
The Supreme Shield shattered completely, turning into countless crimson fragments!
Doom suffered a magical backlash, his body trembling violently! A new shield couldn't form in time!
The Red Devil was already upon him!
The Sin Devil Trigger Dante saw only pure destruction! With a resolute determination to pierce through hell, Devil Sword Dante plunged into Doom's chest without any resistance!
Pfft!
The sword's edge pierced through his back! The dark green armor was as flimsy as paper!
"Ugh--!" Doctor Doom looked down in disbelief at the demonic sword in his chest, thick blood gushing out!
"It's over!" Dante grinned maliciously, gripping the hilt of his demonic sword tightly with both hands, unleashing a violent surge of power upwards—a fierce counter-attack!
Sizzle--!
Flesh torn apart! Bones shattered!
Doctor Doom's upper body, from chest to head, was cleaved in two by the raging demonic sword! Organs and metal fragments mixed with blood plasma splattered through the air, creating cruel flowers of death!
Supreme Doom has fallen!
Demonic flames intertwined with golden flames, illuminating the destroyed remains cleaved in two in the air, and below, Tony burned like a mountain, along with the ferocious demon Dante.
"We won?" Steve collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted. The light of his Gold Cloth completely went out, leaving only his ordinary golden suit.
Call
As if they had smelled blood, a dozen or so Outriders pounced on the ruins from the side!
With sharp claws and fangs, he aimed straight at the exhausted Captain America!
Steve gritted his teeth, trying to raise his shield, but his arm felt as heavy as lead!
Shuashua--!
Several incredibly violent slashes flashed past!
Those dozen or Outriders froze instantly, and the next second they were thrown into a meat grinder, turning into a shower of minced meat and blood!
Kenpachi Zaraki grinned maliciously as he stepped over the pool of blood. "Ha! If you're out of energy, go get over there and get back to that kid!"
He casually pointed the tip of his knife in the direction of Chen Tian behind him, "Don't get in my way!"
On the other side, the molten gold flames on Tony's body rapidly subsided.
The 3.5-meter-tall behemoth had visibly shrunk, and its bulging lava muscles were now covered by new nano-armor, but the armor was dull and no longer had its former glory.
The blazing sun overhead— the Winged Dragon of Ra —let out a clear, melodious cry, transforming into a golden streak of light as it hurtled towards the raging Sanctuary Ship in the distance.
The most intense minute of midday has ended.
A flash of silver light!
Quicksilver Pietro appeared between the two, grinning, "You two great heroes, it's time for you to retire and rest. I'll see you off!"
Tony nodded, glancing at Dante, who had just emerged from his true demon form and was leisurely swinging the blood Dante on his Devil Sword Dante, Dante, not far away.
"Hey, Dante! Are you even capable?"
Dante scoffed, tossed his trench coat aside, slung the Rebellion over his shoulder, and sported his ever-present arrogant smile, "Tony? Are you kidding me? That was just a warm-up! The real show is about to begin!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already transformed into a red afterimage and rushed towards the more chaotic core of the battlefield in the distance!
Pietro shrugged. "Hold on tight!"
Before the words were even finished, a silver light swept up Tony and Steve, instantly disappearing from their spot, leaving only Kenpachi grinning as he charged into the denser purple waves deep within the Thanos Army.
