Hulk's response was simple and direct.
He completely ignored Peter-A's almost ingratiating question; his bloodshot eyes held only pure rage.
The mountain-like body suddenly leaned forward, its enormous shadow instantly engulfing Spider-Man below. A fist several times larger than before, accompanied by a whistling sound as it tore through the air, slammed straight down.
" Karen! Did you bring the Hulkbuster Armor?"
Peter-A scrambled to the side, narrowly avoiding the devastating blow, while shouting into the communication channel.
The ground where he had just stood collapsed, forming a huge crater.
[No, Peter, according to the records, we did not bring any heavy offensive armor this time.] AI Karen's voice was as calm as ever.
"Is there any suit of armor that can go toe-to-toe with this giant? Anything will do!" Peter-A dodged another of Hulk's sweeping arms, the force of the wind sending him tumbling through the air several times.
[Database matching in progress... No results found, Peter.]
"Damn it!" Peter-A wailed inwardly, "Next time I go on a trip, I swear I'll stuff the Hulkbuster Armor into my spatial bracelet!"
On the other side, Peter-B, leaning against the wall, watched this scene unfold and felt his heart skip a beat.
The six-meter- Hulk, just standing there, gave him an insurmountable sense of oppression.
He couldn't expect this "self" from another world to keep going.
He has to do something.
Peter-B gritted his teeth, enduring the sharp pain in his chest, and struggled to his feet, leaning against the wall.
He glanced at the ruins of the teaching building not far away; the laboratory was located beneath it.
He needs to manually create another inhibitor device; perhaps increasing the dosage will help.
Just as he was about to leave, the light above his head suddenly dimmed.
A tall figure dressed in golden armor, holding a little girl, slowly landed in front of him.
Peter-B's pupils contracted slightly.
He recognized the suit.
According to information about the New Avengers, Sentry is one of the strongest fighters and is hailed as the most powerful Avengers in history.
However, the information also indicates that this hero's condition is very unstable, which is similar to Hulk in some ways.
And the little girl in his arms... that's Morgan Stark, Tony Stark's daughter.
Why was she with the Sentry?
Peter-B was filled with doubt and was about to speak when he saw the man called the Sentry raise his hand.
A soft, golden energy emerged from his palm, slowly drifting towards him and merging into the wound on his chest.
A warm feeling spread out, and the sharp, stabbing pain lessened considerably, even making breathing much easier.
"This is all I can do for you; I haven't fully mastered my abilities yet," Robert said gently after he finished.
Peter-B moved his body a bit; although his bones were still broken, at least the pain wasn't as bad.
He is now 100% certain that these people come from another universe.
He looked at Robert and Morgan, whom he was holding protectively in his arms, and asked, "So... you came with that Spider-Man?"
Robert nodded. "Yes. We were in a high-rise building in New York, discussing what to have for lunch, and then we suddenly ended up here."
Peter-B understood immediately.
These three people are: a powerful Spider-Man, a Sentry with unfathomable strength, and Tony Stark's daughter.
This group is clearly someone plotting something behind the scenes, deliberately bringing them into this universe.
"Wait a moment," he said to Robert. "I'll go build a device to deal with the Hulk first. Then I'll figure out how to get you back... I wonder if Strange still remembers me."
He spoke his last sentence softly, with a hint of bitterness in it.
However, Robert shook his head. "No need for that."
He bent down and carefully placed Morgan on the ground, then said to Peter-B, "Just keep an eye on Morgan."
Before he could finish speaking, Robert vanished from the spot.
The next instant, he appeared directly in front of Peter-A, who was being chased and beaten by the Hulk.
" Peter, step back." Robert's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable force. "Leave Hulk to me."
Peter-A. breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Robert. He did a backflip to create some distance and replied without hesitation, "Okay, it's yours then, Bob!"
He knew perfectly well that the fight was over when Bob said, "Leave it to me."
Seeing that there was suddenly another person in front of him, Hulk roared angrily, pushed off with his legs, and leaped high into the air. In mid-air, he clasped his fists together and slammed down on Robert like a meteorite.
Robert simply raised his head calmly and held up his right hand.
He easily caught the Hulk's attack, which was powerful enough to flatten a mountain.
The violent shockwave spread outwards from the two of them, tearing the ground apart once again, but not a single crack appeared beneath Robert's feet.
He blocked Hulk's fists, and slowly gathered his strength with his other hand.
He then threw a punch.
There were no earth-shattering sounds, nor any dazzling light effects.
The six-meter-tall green giant, like a baseball hit by a bat, was blasted straight into the sky at a speed beyond the limits of visual perception.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared above the clouds, becoming a small black dot, and finally completely out of sight.
The entire battlefield fell into a deathly silence.
Peter-A whistled.
Peter-B, standing next to him, was completely stunned.
He stared blankly at the sky, his mouth agape, his mind a complete blank.
Hulk... just like that... gone?
One punch?
The next second, Robert's figure also soared into the sky, flying up in the direction where the black dot disappeared, so fast that he only left a faint golden afterimage in place.
Outside the atmosphere.
Before Hulk, still stunned by the punch, could let his anger escalate further, a golden figure caught up with him.
What followed was a pure, one-sided beating.
There were no techniques, no tactics, just punch after punch landing squarely on him.
Hulk's anger had no time to build up in the face of absolute power, and was shattered by one heavy blow after another.
Less than ten seconds.
Under the relentless attacks, the enormous green creature lost consciousness, its body rapidly shrinking back to Bruce Banner's form.
Inside the dilapidated school campus.
Peter-B remained gazing at the sky, touching his ribs that had just begun to heal, feeling a little unreal.
How strong is the Hulk?
He had personally experienced it; it was a monster that left him utterly helpless.
And then... just like that? Less than a minute later, he was back to square one?
Just what level of existence is this guy called Sentry?
Just as he was lost in thought, a flash of golden light appeared, and Robert reappeared on the ground.
In his hand, he was also carrying an unconscious, naked man, who was none other than Bruce. Dr. Banner.
Robert casually placed Dr. Banner on the ground.
Dr. Banner slowly awoke, his eyes filled with pain and self-reproach as he looked at the chaotic scene around him. "Damn it... what have I done now?"
Peter-B snapped out of his daze, immediately stepped forward, squatted down, and asked, " Dr. Banner, do you remember? Who turned you into the Hulk?"
Dr. Banner held his head in his hands and thought for a long time. He then picked up a relatively intact piece of rag from the ground and draped it over himself.
He said somewhat uncertainly, "It looks like... a red-haired woman."
"A red-haired woman?" The two Peter exchanged a glance, both considering possible candidates.
Before they could come up with a solution, Robert, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.
His pale golden eyes gazed into the distance, as if piercing through the barriers of countless buildings.
" Peter, I've found her."
