He's in Marvel, working behind the scenes.

Thus, both the police and S.H.I.E.L.D. easily deduced a clue: the Vongola family sent someone to assassinate Kingpin, but failed. Kingpin, fearing further assassination attempts from the Vongola, surrendered and hid in prison, but still could not escape the assassination attempt.

However, no matter how easily one can guess the truth, it is still just speculation, without any evidence.

Given the sensitive identity and immense power of the Vongola family's time travelers, and the stark example of the tragic consequences of their conflict with the US military, the police and S.H.I.E.L.D. dared not be too forceful in their investigation, fearing it would cause a negative reaction.

However, following the normal procedures would make it impossible to find clues in this kind of superpowered crime, leaving Fury feeling helpless. While he became more eager to form the Avengers and develop new advanced weapons, he also relaxed his vigilance against the Vongola.

Although it's a super crime, the Vongola did indeed abide by the rules of human society, just as they said when they reached the agreement yesterday...

Although Kingpin's death caused a huge uproar in the United States and made the restrained underground society chaotic and turbulent, it seemed insignificant compared to the fact that "a transcendent organization like the Vongola is not anti-human."

But Fury didn't know that Kingpin's death had brought Gu Qing a lot of trouble...

Kingpin was bitten to death by the venomous snakes summoned by Rokudo Mukuro using the Animal Path... Through a mix of deception and illusion, Rokudo Mukuro exploited Kingpin's lack of information and his belief that he was an illusionist who fought using lies and illusions, ultimately winning the victory.

The fear and despair of being entangled and bitten by hundreds or thousands of venomous snakes, and then watching helplessly as one dies bit by bit, earned Gu Qing a fortune of about 46,000 prayer points.

but.

Although he gained a lot, he was deeply concerned about what Kingpin said during the battle and before his death.

"I've dealt with hell many times."

"Just you wait, I'll be back from hell."

If it were just the last sentence, it could easily be taken as a final, threatening statement. However, considering the preceding sentence and how he used it to see through Rokudo Mukuro's illusion, it makes one think deeply.

Kingpin is just a third-tier villain in Marvel. Gu Qing first learned about this character when he was a child and saw the old version of the Spider-Man cartoon on CCTV Children's Channel. In that cartoon, Kingpin had strength that even Spider-Man couldn't match (this cartoon weakened Spider-Man, and he himself stated that he couldn't lift a truck).

Then I learned about it from TV series such as Daredevil and The Defenders.

However, neither the animated series nor the TV series mentions any connection between Kingpin and Hell.

However, although these episodes do not mention it, we can still infer the general situation based on the available information.

—The Hand!

Five disciples from Kunlun betrayed their sect in pursuit of immortality and fled to Japan, where they established the Hand Association.

These five people are the five fingers of the Hand Society.

Their initial purpose in establishing the Hand Society was to defend against Kunlun's pursuit. Therefore, they used the secret techniques brought out by Kunlun to train ninjas and cultivate Onmyoji.

But as the long years passed, it was unclear whether they had hidden themselves too well or the people of Kunlun simply didn't take them seriously. Apart from sending some people to clear the area outside their gate at the beginning, there was no further activity.

They gradually became active in the shadows and learned about and made contact with the "beasts," creatures that lived in the hellish dimension.

From then on, the Hand began to worship the Beast and establish a connection with it, with the goal of summoning the Beast to the human world.

If Kingpin has any chance of connecting with Hell, it's only through the Hand, with whom he works closely.

The five fingers of the Hand Society wish to achieve immortality, but they must use dragon bones as a medicinal ingredient to refine the elixir of immortality. And now, only Kunlun still has dragons living in it.

Leaving aside whether these guys have the guts to go to Kunlun to kill the dragon, even if they did, Kunlun isn't on Earth anymore.

They can only search the world for dragon burial sites.

This requires manpower.

Furthermore, summoning "beasts" requires a large amount of materials and offerings... Kingpin, as the underground emperor of America, can provide all of these, making him a perfect partner.

In the TV series, Madame Gosling worried that Vanessa's intrusion into Kingpin's world would make the cold and ruthless mob kingpin gentle and wicked, so she risked falling out with Kingpin to send someone to assassinate Vanessa.

This shows just how important Kingpin is to the Hand. And it's only natural that someone as important as Kingpin would have access to the Hand's core secret, "The Beast."

Perhaps the Hand used secrets like immortality or beasts to win over Kingpin.

If all these speculations are true, then it is very likely that Kingpin will return to the human world with the power of hell before long, and we must be careful to guard against it.

But what is the power of a beast again?

It didn't appear in the animated series, and the TV series wasn't finished filming.

Gu Qing's understanding of beasts was limited to their background; he was completely clueless about anything more specific.

"...Never mind, even if he comes back to life, he won't be able to find me." Because there was so little useful information, Gu Qing couldn't come up with a solution after thinking for a long time, so he had to give up on thinking about it.

but……

"System, upgrade me to C-level one-star."

[Note: The current level of the host is D-rank, eight stars. Upgrading to C-rank, one star requires 20,000 Prayer Points. Would you like to enhance?]

"strengthen!"

Gu Qing cut through the iron road.

Although Jin was unaware that he was the one manipulating everything behind the scenes, it was better to improve his strength just in case.

What if, just if Kingpin's return causes the gates of hell to open and many hellish demons to escape?

If that were to actually happen, then I, who also lives in Hell's Kitchen, might be doomed before Hell Knight sends these guys back to Hell. Just like the background setting for major events in all superhero movies.

[Ding! Enhancement successful!]

As the system notification sounded, Gu Qing felt changes in his body: he was stronger, had better stamina, more endurance, clearer thinking, and faster calculation speed—this was an all-round enhancement.

And there was no discomfort whatsoever, as if nothing had changed, without any sense of unfamiliarity or loss of control caused by the sudden surge in power.

It's just a product of the system; it makes absolutely no sense.

"Continue summoning the rest!"

Gu Qing stroked his chin and pondered, silently thinking, "20,000 prayer points for nine prayer pillars, 10,000 for ten consecutive draws."

[Ding! Your wish has been granted!]

[Ding! You have obtained a Grade B doll fragment!]

[Ding! You have obtained a D-grade doll fragment!]

[Ding! You have obtained an E-grade doll fragment!]

[Ding! You have obtained a D-grade doll fragment!]

……

……

[Ding! You have drawn the B-grade doll "Meteor Island's Wandering Soul"!]

The ten-pull was over quickly, and I only got one pillar.

But Gu Qing was very satisfied.

Because he drew the strongest of the nine pillars, the Stone Pillar "Gyomei Himejima", and Gyomei who had mastered the Mark, the Transparent World, and the Crimson Blade.

Kyōmei Himejima is a compassionate blind monk who often takes in homeless children.

At the same time, he was born with a strong physique, and before he joined the Demon Slayer Corps to learn breathing techniques, he had a record of killing a demon single-handedly.

At the time, he knew nothing, but with his physical strength, he pinned the ghost to the ground and smashed its head with punch after punch, only to have it grow back and be smashed again, continuing until dawn when it was basking in the sun.

After joining the Demon Slayer Corps, he quickly became a Stone Pillar. After Muichiro comprehended the secrets of the Demon Slayer Mark, he quickly mastered it. In the later battles against Upper Moon One and Muzan, he further comprehended the Transparent World and the Crimson Blade, reaching the pinnacle of a Pillar.

Historically, he was second only to Tsugikuni Yoriichi.

However, the markings are a technique that shortens lifespan in exchange for power; once activated, one cannot live past 25.

Heimei Himejima is already twenty-seven years old, and once his mark is activated, he can only live for a maximum of one day.

Therefore, his markings are in an inactive state, a one-time trump card.

"But that's enough!"

"With him here, the final battle in the Infinite Castle can begin!"

Gu Qing felt a surge of excitement.

Although each Upper Moon requires three Pillars to deal with, Upper Moon One's strength far exceeds expectations. The Demon Slayer Corps swordsmen with only four Pillars at present are simply not enough to contend with the Twelve Demon Moons, let alone the Demon King Muzan.

But this isn't the world of Demon Slayer; it's Marvel.

Chapter 101 Tony Comes Looking For

The Marvel universe is dangerous, with many powerful figures.

Compared to these big shots, the Twelve Demon Moons and the Demon King Muzan are all trash.

Unfortunately, a powerful figure is currently preparing to deal with Muzan and the Twelve Demon Moons.

He is "Tony Stark"!

Yes, it's Iron Man.

Some might say that Tony has only developed up to the Mark 20 series, and its performance is far inferior to later models. If he were to face an Upper Moon demon or Muzan, wouldn't he just be showing off by having his armor torn apart?

But Tony's strength has never lay in how advanced and powerful his Mark armor is, but in his mind.

He possesses a brain second only to the gods of the universe, capable of mastering cold fusion technology overnight, and his thinking and calculation speed is astonishing.

Even in the heart of Middle Eastern terrorist strongholds, in places like small private workshops, the world's most advanced missiles and Mark I armor, which surpasses the current technological level of the world, can be produced in a short period of time.

If it weren't for his limited understanding, he could have led Earth to a civilization leap within ten years.

Of course, this is on the premise that all of humanity abandons all selfishness and wholeheartedly supports Tony's groundbreaking technology.

But even without the full support of all mankind, he can build his own technological empire step by step on his own.

Ghosts are indeed powerful creatures, but their weaknesses are equally fatal.

Once Tony becomes aware of their existence and intends to target them, he could easily develop a technological weapon capable of single-handedly annihilating them. If he were to inform them of all the demons' Blood Demon Arts beforehand, this timeframe would be significantly shortened.

After last night's crushing defeat, Tony, with his strong sense of crisis, certainly won't give up so easily.

It seems the "Anti-Ghost Armor" project plan is already complete!

If the timing is right, and the final battle is launched when Tony's anti-demon armor is fully operational but not overwhelming the demon, the balance of power between the two can be maintained, making the battle intense and brutal, thus triggering various emotions.

Some people might ask this.

What gives you the right to estimate Tony's progress in building the anti-ghost armor?

this is very simple.
