In front of Superman, you have no choice but to give yourself to a little girl.

Chapter 17 Devouring Star: Really... not going to beat me up?

"Are you trying to scam me? Don't you know there are no security cameras here?!"

Wayne grabbed Galactus by the neck and shook him repeatedly, successfully waking the unconscious Galactus once again.

"Stop! Stop shaking!"

Galactus quickly stopped Wayne, "I surrender! I'm not fighting anymore!"

Actually, he wanted to surrender earlier, but his face was swollen from being hit and his mouth was a little numb, so he couldn't shout it out.

At this moment, Devourer of Stars was truly on the verge of tears. He had finally managed to have a full meal, and yet you made him lose so completely!

However, to Galactus's surprise, Wayne seemed even more displeased after hearing that he wanted to surrender.

"You were the one who said you were going to eat the Earth, but now you're surrendering and saying you won't eat it anymore? Are you kidding me? This is putting me in a really difficult position."

"What can I do?! I've never even seen Earth! If you're going to beat me up, at least give me a reason!"

Galactus was completely dumbfounded. Although he had said he would eat Earth, he hadn't even gone there yet! Damn it, he didn't even know what Earth looked like!

He wasn't lying; even though he'd lived that long, he'd never been to that remote, remote place on Earth.

Otherwise, given that Uncle Tun was starving for three days and nine meals back then, he would have eaten Earth the moment he saw it.

After all, although Earth is located in a somewhat remote area, it still has a lot of energy, and there's no reason why Galactus would let it go if he encountered it.

"..."

Upon hearing Galactus's words, Wayne fell silent—what he said seemed to make some sense. He hadn't done anything yet, and someone as righteous as himself really needed a reason to continue beating him up.

Thinking of this, Wayne released Galactus, whom he was holding with one hand.

Galactus looked at Wayne, who was drifting away, somewhat confused. "What are you doing?"

"Nothing, you're flying too fast, I can't catch up."

"..."

Are you kidding me?

Do you really think Uncle Tun has something wrong with his brain?

If I run away now, what if I go and eat the earth again? I got punched in the mouth, and I can't even argue!

Galactus simply gave up completely, lying down in the void and remaining completely still.

The two remained locked in this stalemate until Wayne let out a soft sigh, "Okay, I understand."

Upon hearing this, Galactus was overjoyed and stood up abruptly. He turned to leave, but then suddenly remembered something and subconsciously looked back—his eyes met those of Wayne, who was wearing a sinister smile.

"..."

The atmosphere around them became somewhat quiet for a moment.

"Go away!"

"Don't chase after them!"

"How do you know I'll chase after you if you don't leave?!"

"If you're not going to chase after them, why are you still here?!"

Having exhausted all other options, Galactus could only continue lying down; at worst, they would just have to see who could endure it longer!

He didn't know how long Wayne could endure hunger, but he could at least starve for several more months! Nobody understood hunger better than him!

Wayne, equally helpless, sat cross-legged in the void; at this point, he had really lost interest.

Laying in the void, the Galactus was bored out of its mind and subconsciously asked, "Why won't you let me go?"

However, Wayne did not answer him.

Helpless, the Galactus could only continue, "Fine, I won't eat Earth anymore! I've never even seen its face, and besides, I can't eat you even if you're there!"

But this time, Wayne also failed to respond.

Seeing that the kid was unyielding and that the other party was determined to beat him up, Devourer of Stars shut his mouth, feeling utterly hopeless.

Wayne, who was not far away, slowly stood up and said, "You can leave now."

Devouring Star subconsciously looked up, "Trying to fool me again?"

"Take it or leave it."

Wayne turned around, tore through the barrier of reality, and flew into it.

Standing frozen in place, Devourer of Stars' gaze was complex. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Really... not going to beat me up?"

……

Inside the wreckage of Galactus's giant spaceship, the Silver Surfer, who possesses Galactus's surfboard that allows him to "travel at near-light speed in normal conditions and faster-than-light speed when entering a space portal," finally escaped the encirclement. With no opponent, the group boarded the spaceship they had come from.

Once seated, Reed glanced back at the others. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for flying with us. I am your captain, Reed Richards..."

"Reed, hurry up."

Johnny, standing nearby, impatiently urged them on.

Reed shrugged indifferently and then started the spaceship.

Seeing this, Johnny raised one eyebrow, pursed his lips, and gave a meaningful, smug smile before turning back to raise an eyebrow at the others.

"This is your co-pilot, Johnny Stone. Please remain in your seats and do not move around. We are about to take off!"

Reed glanced at Johnny without batting an eye—he knew the kid was trying to steal his lines.

Susan, looking anxiously at the starry sky outside the window, had a hint of helplessness in her eyes, stemming from her inability to help.

Janet, sitting next to Susan, patted Susan's hand reassuringly. "Are you worried about him?"

Susan nodded slightly but did not speak.

"He'll be fine, you know that in your heart, don't you?"

Given Wayne's immediate display of power, where he blasted Galactus away with two fiery gazes, Janet didn't think the child would be in any danger. Instead, she should be more worried about Galactus.

But Wayne probably won't really go for the kill, right? After all, Galactus is essentially an important part of the universe, and killing him directly might disrupt the balance of the universe?

If only the initial negotiations had resolved the issue.

Just as Janet was deep in thought, Thor suddenly said, "My second brother is a great warrior! There's absolutely no way anything could go wrong!"

Hey! The one who trains his arms but not his legs!

Johnny turned and glared at Thor. "I've said it more than once! But I'll say it again! That's my brother!"

"I won't take your second brother for nothing; I'll trade him for Loki."

Get out of here!

Seeing Thor's shameless "barefoot man isn't afraid of those wearing shoes" attitude, Johnny was immediately furious.

"Hey, you two, don't make a scene on the spaceship."

Steve gave a helpless reminder, then looked worried, "Tony, maybe we should go help that kid."

"Stop fooling around, Captain."

Tony couldn't help but roll his eyes behind his mask. Did they not want to help? No, they couldn't help at all!

At first, they wanted to follow them, but in the blink of an eye, the two guys disappeared completely. The enormous amount of residual energy made tracking the energy trajectory a pipe dream, so they could only return to Earth to discuss it further.

"How could we possibly keep up with them at that speed? Even if we find their location and have Thor summon the Bifrost to send us there, those two will already be in another star system."

Just then, Reed suddenly said, "In fact, they may have already gone to another universe."

"Wayne can travel through the universe?"

Banner slightly lifted his eyelids, revealing his eyes, which appeared somewhat numb.

Johnny stroked his chin and raised an eyebrow smugly. "Of course, my second brother is invincible!"

"As expected of my second brother!"

Thor couldn't help but exclaim, "Humble and polite, incredibly powerful, able to traverse the universe... and can even fix a hammer! He's far superior to Loki!"

He increasingly felt that Johnny's second brother was fantastic! He went back and discussed the details of poaching him with Tony!
