American comic book: God among men, Saiyan-Kryptonian hybrid

Chapter 223 Entering the arena, a grand gamble awaits!

Carrot El's words struck Peter like a thunderbolt, and his eyes welled up with tears when the image of that figure flashed through his mind.

Thinking of that white-haired, frail old man who always cared for him and was kind and gentle, he was his only warmth in the world and his only trust in humanity.

It is his absolute taboo that cannot be touched, and it is also the elder he wants to take care of even if he suffers all the hardships of life and the exhaustion of poverty.

His brain didn't even have time to think about why Superman knew Aunt May.

Death. Yes, he never thought he would die, he never thought about the consequences of doing so.

What will Aunt Mei do if he dies?
Carrot Al said something, and everyone saw the usually talkative Spider-Man suddenly stop talking like a wilted eggplant, standing there dumbfounded.

"Even though she doesn't know what you've done, maybe one day, when the news comes that Spider-Man is dead or missing, she will cook dinner as usual and wait for her only loved one to come home."

"But he never got to see them again. He waited until dawn, until the next morning, until the police knocked on his door, or he just kept waiting."

"Then, the food gradually cooled down, and so did the person."

As he spoke, Carrot El stepped into the hall without looking back, but every word he uttered seemed to pierce Peter Parker's heart like a needle.

"I believe you've experienced this feeling before. Do you really want her to go through it again?"

Spider-Man stood there, completely stunned, as thoughts he had never considered before began to flood his mind.

"plum"

Time was running out, and Captain America and Tony walked up to Peter Parker. "Come on, kid, this isn't a sightseeing tour."

Iron Man immediately spotted the miniature camera hidden in Peter's chest, prompting Jarvis to take note of the boy's information. He chuckled, "What should I call you, Spider-Man?"

"The battle suit is nice, quite distinctive."

"I am Spider-Man!"

Peter had lost his earlier excitement. As people walked past him, each person left their handprint on his shoulder.

Everyone was urging him to go back, but only Diana smiled encouragingly when she came to him:
"Strive to save the world and be your own hero."

Everyone's words echoed in Peter's ears until everyone else had entered the room and he was the only one left.

After a long while, Peter silently took out his phone and dialed Aunt May's number.

"Hi, Peter, my good boy, how was your day?"

"Mei, there's something I want to tell you."

"what?"

Spider-Man took a deep breath. At this moment, he only had two choices: go back to being a good neighbor, or move forward and fully embark on the path of a superhero.

But no matter which one it is, it cannot bypass his dearest Aunt Meryl Streep.

So Peter decided to stop hiding it from her, even though he didn't want Aunt May to worry about him, and even more so, he didn't want her to one day hear the news of his death.

"I'm in the Tistelo Islands right now. The ones that were mentioned in the news."

"What??? Peter??? What are you doing there? Taking pictures???"

Aunt Mei's incredulous exclamation came from the other end of the phone: "Come back immediately! Right now! This is too dangerous!!"

"I am Spider-Man!"

Peter Parker gritted his teeth and finally blurted it out, then breathed a sigh of relief: "I am Spider-Man."

"I have two choices now, Mei!"

"Go back or go inside!"

"I'm calling you because Mr. Superman just told me—yes, the Superman you always see on TV—that you can't live without me."

"I can't make this decision, and I can't be so selfish, so now..."

"If you support me, I'll go in."

"If you let me go, I will leave."

Peter Parker rattled off everything in one breath, and heaven knows how heavy every word that came out of his mouth felt.

On the other end of the phone, Aunt Mei seemed to have suffered a heart attack from shock; her voice remained silent for a long time.

"Kakarot, a powerful aura is coming."

Entering the grand venue, the Justice League members, like champions defending their titles, encouraged each other before heading to their respective gladiator captains to await the arrival of the others.

Broly and Carrot El arrived at the main arena. Upon sensing Zod's presence, Broly suddenly said to Carrot El:
“Let me handle this in a bit!” Carrot El looked surprised. “Huh? He’s coming for me. What are you going to do?”

Unexpectedly, Broly adopted a rare tough stance, his fighting spirit blazing as he looked at Zod, who had fallen from mid-air to the ground:
"You possess both Saiyan and Kryptonian bloodlines within you."

"That's why I'm determined to settle things with the Kryptonians!"

Carrot El gave him a helpless look: "."

Good grief, are you jealous?
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Carrotelle."

Zod landed on the ground, his black Kryptonian armor now in disarray, the carapace that had grown from his back completely covering his back and chest, and a pair of black wings drooping to the ground.

Purple lines flowed down his cheeks, and the bones of his jaw protruded, revealing his skin and radiating golden energy. But strangely, his skin was dry, and he was covered in barbs. His whole body was swollen, making him look like a huge monster.

Doomsday

Carrot El muttered to himself. He had already anticipated that what came today would be no pushover, and he was naturally prepared. This was truly a tough nut to crack.
"You injected yourself with the Doomsday virus?"

"I didn't expect you to be able to stay rational."

Zod was getting impatient, glaring at him with wide eyes: "I'm really surprised you know about the Doomsday Virus."

"But this is just an appetizer. I hope you'll enjoy it, Superman."

Zod surveyed the layout of the venue and nodded in admiration.

Clearly, he also believed it was better for the two sides to fight separately. Otherwise, the different strengths of the people would make the fight awkward and time-consuming, and having to challenge them one by one would be a waste of time.

"This venue is well-designed; I like it."

"The rest of you, go and wipe out the Justice League!!"

Seeing this, Zod shouted at the sky, and figures appeared one after another. Some jumped off the plane, some flew away in mid-air, and they scattered in all directions.

They had already targeted their prey and begun their hunt.

Carrot El was a little nervous; judging from the number of figures appearing on the other side, it was no less than that of the Justice League.

"Pfft!"

A muffled groan slammed to the ground, followed by countless figures landing one after another. The leader had a cold gaze, like a killing machine, and was unsmiling. He revealed a silver metal arm and looked at them indifferently.

There were 10 people with the same figure as him, and the Extremis virus and the Arc Reactor were completely combined in Ivanvanko's hands.

With the addition of newly developed armor, worn by the ten Winter Soldier warriors led by Bucky, they instantly surrounded Iron Man, Captain America, Falcon, and Black Panther.

"Tony Stark, it's finally time to settle the blood debt with your family!"

Two laser whips extended from Ivan's armor, glaring menacingly at him.

Tony Stark was taken aback by the sheer scale of the operation: "Wow, so I really am involved in this?"

Captain America, Falcon, and the other two stood together. Although Bucky was wearing a mask, he felt that this person was somewhat familiar.
On the other side, at the easternmost edge of the archipelago, a separate arena was set aside for giants and monsters to fight.

As Daigo transformed into Ultraman Tiga and became a giant, the overwhelming Zoga shrouded the sky in darkness. After R'lyeh absorbed some of the evil god's power, Camilla, along with Darramb and Hitra, found Daigo once again.

"You've arrived, Daigo."

"Camilla, let me explain!"

I won't listen!!!

"Black Widow! Help!!"

However, Black Widow had no time to pay attention to him at that moment.

"Sorry, the game is paused. You guys play for a while, or you can come and help me out when you're done."

Upon hearing the voice in her earpiece, Black Widow's expression turned somewhat grim as she replied that the group on the other end was a considerable challenge for her.

“Casilla. I didn’t expect you to come, and with so many helpers.”

Black Widow faced the invisible weapon extended from the newcomer's hand as if facing a formidable enemy, raising her hand to summon the Sword of Vishanti, ready to strike at any moment.

She was transferred to Kamar-Taj in the monster-infested Netherworld at the beginning of the Kaecilian defection.

She was later taken in as a disciple by the Ancient One. During that period, she had a lot of dealings with Kaecilius and knew that he was a rather difficult character.

"Long time no see. Your magic has improved even more, Romanov."

At this moment, Cassilia had dark circles under her eyes, a consequence of being corrupted by dark energy.
