Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 577 Quarterfinalists

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

The sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the arena, drawing everyone's attention.

Tony Stark, dressed in his Mark suit, unleashed a series of fluid close-quarters combat moves.

Ivan Vanko, dressed in a whip-like suit, was forced to retreat repeatedly by the attacks, always a beat too slow to parry each time.

"With that reaction speed, did you leave the suit to us?"

Ivan Vanko, who hadn't neglected his training, clearly didn't believe that Tony's attack frequency and reaction speed could be so fast under his own control.

Tony Stark, controlling the suit, smiled slightly. He hadn't expected that the significant improvement in his physical abilities would enhance his close-combat skills so much.

"Fuck!"

A plasma whip was lashed out, which Tony dodged with a sidestep, shattering the bricks and stones on the arena floor.

Ivan Vanko, inside the whip suit, frowned slightly and immediately began to wield his plasma whip.

"boom!"

Tony dodged, simultaneously unleashing a palm strike.

He did not wear the suit made of secondary adamantium in this battle, because it would be unfair to Ivan Vanko, as the military does not sell this metal to him.

Ivan Vanko retracted his plasma whip, and the heavy armor on his back opened.

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh"

Boom, boom, boom!

Several miniature missiles flew out and exploded instantly on the ring, engulfing Tony Stark in smoke.

Many contestants in the candidate area frowned slightly:
"Mech warriors like Tony and Ivan should be banned from the competition."

"Their attack was absolutely outrageous."

Jessica Jones, recalling the previous Dragon Ball tournament, smiled and said:

"That's already pretty good. The competition only allowed them to use one suit instead of bringing a whole army of mechs."

Bronsky nodded and said:
"If it weren't for the limitations of the combat suits, there really wouldn't be many people who could stand up to them."

"Especially when there is an ample supply of weapons and ammunition."

As the smoke cleared, Tony Stark soared into the sky, his palm cannons blasting down at Ivan Vanko.

Boom, boom, boom!

At that moment, Tony Stark's back-mounted bombs opened and were thrown directly down into the arena below.

"boom!"

The arena shattered on the spot under the attack of the two, and Ivan Vanko, piloting his Whiplash Suit, also flew into the air.

The audience below exclaimed in surprise:

"The arena is gone..."

Tony glanced at the audience below. Although the audience area was far away, he couldn't use many of his attack methods, mainly because he was afraid of affecting the audience area.

How about close combat?

Ivan Vanko nodded.

The two flew down and landed in the arena area, both of their battle suits damaged.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"boom!"

The two engaged in close combat again, simultaneously firing palm cannons from their hands at each other.

Tony dodged Ivan Vanko's attack and punched him in the face.

Seeing this, Ivan Vanko extended his plasma whip and lashed out at Tony. This time, Tony did not dodge but instead reached out and grabbed the plasma whip.

"Sizzle"

Jarvis's voice came from inside the suit:

"Sir, the suit is 30% damaged."

Tony didn't care and simply pulled Ivan Vanko over, simultaneously firing a shot at the opponent's suit.

"boom!"

The next second, Ivan Vanko, who had been sent flying, was pulled back. This time, Tony aimed at Ivan Vanko's plasma whip.

"boom!"

As the plasma whip struck the energy interface, the light on it instantly went out.

Tony Stark raised the whip and threw it outside the ring area.

The audience cheered when Tony Stark won.

The referee then announced:

"Winner number 2 has qualified for the finals."

Tina, from the candidate area, asked with some confusion:

"Why has his armor's defense been reduced so much?"

Gilgamesh thought for a moment and then spoke:
"They probably didn't wear the one with the best material."

At this moment, dozens of giant white robots entered the arena. They carried tiles and began to lay them out, and the destroyed arena was quickly rebuilt.

The quarterfinals roster was quickly announced: Gilgamesh, Jessica Jones, Wang, Agatha Christie, T'Challa, Sif, Tony Stark, and Bronsky.

During this time, Gilgamesh's opponent was Tina, but Tina gave up the match and did not spar.

······
the next day.

With the top eight finalists announced, the entire venue was reorganized during the break that night. The original four arena areas were dismantled and replaced with one large arena.

"Those who made it into the top eight in the preliminary round, please gather here."

As the referee's voice rang out, the top eight players gathered around.

Agatha stood aside, her gaze sweeping over the other contestants before settling on the King. Of the seven people here, only the King, like her, was a wizard; the others were in a completely different category.

I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to absorb his power.

T'Challa, however, looked grave. He had made it to the quarterfinals with his vibranium-forged Black Panther suit, but the road ahead was getting increasingly difficult. He hoped that the opponents he would face later wouldn't be too tough.

T'Challa's gaze fell on Sif, Jessica Jones, Wong, and Agatha.

As for Gilgamesh, Tony Stark, and Bronsky of the Eternals, they were people he did not want to encounter immediately.

At this moment, the martial arts tournament host appeared on the stage and announced:

"Participants, please gather here."

Looking at the assembled crowd, the martial arts tournament host began to speak:
"Now let's draw lots to determine our opponents and the order of play."

"Those whose names are called come over to draw lots."

“Mr. Gilgamesh”.

"it is good."

Gilgamesh stepped forward to the staff member, reached into the box in front of him, took out a slip of paper, opened it, and said...

"Number 5!"

On the virtual screen above everyone's heads, Gilgamesh's image appeared below position 5.

The martial arts tournament host began by saying:
"Number 5 is in the third game."

"Next, Ms. Jessica Jones."

Jessica Jones quickly drew her number from the box as well.

"You're number eight, in the fourth game."

Soon everyone stepped forward and drew their numbers, and also learned their opponents for the first match.

Game 1: Wang vs. Bronsky
Second match: Agatha vs. T'Challa

The third match: Gilgamesh vs. Tony Stark

Game 4: Jessica Jones vs. Sif
After the list of opponents was announced, the martial arts tournament host began to speak:

"I apologize to all viewers for keeping you waiting."

"The first World Martial Arts Tournament quarterfinals will now begin." "In addition, all the contestants who enter the quarterfinals will receive a huge reward of 500,000 US dollars, and the champion of this tournament will receive a cash reward of 10 million US dollars and the opportunity to spar with Mr. Smith Doyle."

"And a precious wish."

"Now, please welcome the first group of contestants."

"Wang and Bronsky are ready to enter."

As the two entered the arena, the martial arts tournament host began to explain:

“Your Majesty, a sorcerer from Kamar-Taj.”

"Blonsky, nicknamed Abomination, is a recipient of the War Hero Medal."

Upon hearing the host's introduction, an audience member in the audience section excitedly exclaimed:

"My God, he's a mage."

"I wonder if an ordinary person could become such a mage through cultivation."

An audience member nearby also chimed in with a comment:

"I wonder if there are any special requirements."

"I just don't know how to get my child to become an apprentice at Kamar-Taj."

The man beside him asked:
Do you know where Kamar-Taj is?

"do not know."

Ward looked at Donnie Gill beside him and asked:
How do you feel?

Donnie Gill said:
"There are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world."

"I thought I was strong enough after two upgrades, but I never expected to be defeated by Shangqi."

"Shang-Chi lost to Bronsky again."

"I just don't know if Bronsky will be able to win this match."

Coulson nodded, while wondering whether Bronsky and Rose behind him knew the truth behind the championship reward wish.

Inside the VIP box, Betty asked:
"Father, if you hate winning the championship, what is your wish?"

Upon hearing his daughter's words, Ross smiled and said:
"If Hatred can win the championship, the three major groups' wishes..."

"Release the armament modification of the Big White robot or allow some military equipment to enter the universal capsule system. Either one of these two will suffice."

Hearing their father's words, Bruce Banner and Betty realized that Ross didn't understand what the wish in the World Martial Arts Tournament championship reward represented.

In the arena.

As Bronsky ran toward the King, he transformed into the Abomination and threw a punch at the King.

"Crack!"

The shield that the king had magically erected was instantly targeted by the abomination's punch, but the king himself dodged the attack by rolling over the moment the shield shattered.

"Roar!"

"You acrobat, your journey ends here today."

Bronsky roared and lunged at Wang.

In an instant, a magical longsword appeared in Wang's hand, which he slashed directly at the abomination's outstretched hand.

"clang!"

Wang took several steps back before regaining his balance.

Abomination looked at his palm, which was free of any marks, but he had not caught the king.

Agatha Christie, after seeing the candidate list, exclaimed:

"What a powerful physique."

Upon seeing this, Wang immediately conjured two ropes in his hands and threw them directly at the abomination's arms.

The two ropes that were thrown out instantly wrapped around the Abomination's two arms, while the other end of the golden ropes plunged directly into the ground of the arena.

In an instant, hatred seemed to be half-controlled, and its arms were bound.

"Roar!"

"Is this your power?"

With a roar of rage, the abomination suddenly exerted force with both arms, instantly snapping the golden rope.

As the ropes disappeared, hatred was also freed.

The king's expression was unusually solemn; he hadn't expected that Abomination would be freed from its restraints so quickly.

The abomination clapped its hands sharply in the direction of the king, and a gust of wind swept in instantly.

Wang immediately produced another golden rope in his hand, which instantly wrapped around the abomination's ankle, while he himself grabbed the other end of the rope.

"call!"

A gust of wind swept past and instantly blew Wang into the air. Fortunately, he grabbed the other end of the rope, which prevented him from being blown off the stage.

Seeing that Wang was using this method to prevent himself from being blown away, Bronsky simply ripped off the golden rope around his ankle.

As the rope snapped, it vanished into golden specks of light.

Instead of falling to the ground, the king opened a portal beneath him, with the other end of the portal leading to the top of the abomination's head.

The king landed directly on top of the abomination's head and launched an attack on it.

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

The king's magical weapon struck the abomination's head, but aside from sparks flying, it did little to cause any real damage.

Clearly, Abomination's defenses were not weak; even Hulk couldn't make Abomination bleed, so Wang naturally failed as well.

The abomination reached for the head, pulled the king off, and slammed him to the ground.

"bump!"

Wang smashed the ring, creating a large crater.

"cough!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood. Although he used magic to protect himself at the moment of impact, he was still seriously injured.

The abomination leaped up and smashed directly towards the king in the deep pit.

In the critical moment, Wang immediately erected a portal in front of him, with the other end opening at the temple of the Abomination.

The abomination's fist punched into the portal and emerged from another direction, landing directly on his temple.

"boom!"

The full-force blow landed directly on his own head, and Abomination was instantly sent flying backward.

The sheer force and speed propelled the Abomination toward the edge of the ring, but by the time it tried to grab onto something to slow its speed, it had already flown off the ring.

The audience was stunned by what they saw.

"What the hell? He actually sent me flying with a single punch."

Bronsky stood up, looked at the ring in front of him, then glanced at his feet and cursed:
"A treacherous and cunning fellow."

He then canceled the transformation and reverted to Bronsky's human form.

The martial arts tournament host shouted:
"A miraculous counterattack."

"Wang used his magic to make Bronsky knock him out of the ring."

"In the quarterfinals, Wang has won!"

Cheers erupted from all around, and the general applauded the king on the arena.

Wang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had won. If that punch had landed on him, he would have been seriously injured, if not killed on the spot.

Agatha, in the candidate area, smiled. Only because the king hadn't lost the match did she have the opportunity to spar with him and absorb his magical power.

Ross, in the VIP box, shook his head:
"To actually knock yourself out of the ring, that's really stupid."

"However, this ring format is indeed not very friendly to Bronsky, since Abomination didn't suffer any real damage at all."

Betty also spoke up:
"It's a pity."

The arena has now been repaired, and the martial arts tournament host announced:

"Next up, please welcome the second group of contestants."

"Agatha Christie vs. T'Challa"
