Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit

The two need to make preliminary plans and deployments for this war.

The attack on the border of hell has been decided, and some preparation time is needed in the early stages.

As a result, the strategy was just decided here.

The Ancient One came knocking on their door.

Upon seeing Matthew sitting on the luxurious and spacious living room sofa, the Ancient One didn't stand on ceremony and sat down beside him, saying with a hint of helplessness, "I've finally managed to rest for a few days, and you're already starting a conflict here."

“I cannot dampen the enthusiasm of the two highest war commanders of the Empire, Ancient One.”

Matthew smiled and waved, signaling the maids to hand the Ancient One a steaming cup of milk coffee.

He has never liked drinking tea.

Maybe she's not old enough yet.

Gu Yi took the coffee cup, tasted it, and then placed it on the glass table in front of her.

"Your war could easily shake hell, and possibly even heaven."

The Ancient One specifically pointed out Heaven.

This universe has hell and heaven.

Hell and Heaven are two opposing forces. Compared to the opposition of light and darkness, justice and evil in mythology, the concept of Hell and Heaven in this universe is quite simple.

It's about fighting for territory, resources, souls, and so on.

They can be treated as two completely different countries.

In ancient times, Hell and Heaven waged a war that lasted for countless years, resulting in countless deaths and injuries, but ultimately no victor was achieved. As a result, the two sides signed a non-aggression pact.

Of course, this contract is no different from a blank piece of paper; once war breaks out, both sides can tear it up at any time.

The people of Heaven also coveted Earth, but they were defeated by the combined forces of the Sorcerer Supreme and the Sorcerer Alliance, leaving only a legend of faith on Earth, with no real angels ever seen descending.

Because they dare not.

The Ancient One and Odin, these two pillars of stability, are not just for show.

If any angel dares to come, not to mention the Ancient One, Odin could really lead an army to attack Heaven.

It seems Odin and Heaven have some entanglement.

As Odin grows old, the closer he gets to his death, the quieter everyone else will become.

They were afraid that this hot-tempered old man would die with a nuclear bomb in his arms.

“They need blood. I don’t know how many wars will happen in the future, and neither does the Ancient One. We can only prepare for the worst.” Matthew agreed with Rachel’s idea.

As for the consequences, so be it.

Matthew is no longer a persimmon; three months of digestion have allowed him to leap to another level in his life.

In terms of physique alone, he now possesses a strength exceeding six thousand tons.

This is such an outrageous number.

In terms of sheer numbers, he could easily overpower Thanos's hammer at this stage.

In addition, the development of the Glint-Glint Fruit and the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the three types of Haki, and his magical skills have reached a new level.

Matthew believed that as long as it wasn't a monster of Odin's caliber, he could give any other Skyfather or Demon Lord a big surprise.

"I really don't know whether to say you guys are being overly cautious," Gu Yi chuckled.

She realized it wasn't arrogance, but rather excessive caution.

Matthew and the entire Terra were on high alert for the series of uncertain threats that might arise in the future.

The Ancient One now feels some sympathy for Matthew's potential enemies in the future.

The higher-ups set an example for the lower-downs; those guys really messed with Matthew, and being humiliated was the least of their worries.

"It seems I'll have to keep a closer eye on Dormammu. You should also be careful; Dormammu won't let this opportunity slip by."

Gu Yi took on the responsibility of being the number one sister.

Matthew's eyes flashed, and he immediately thought of Parker, who had disappeared without a trace and had not been found to this day.

He nodded.

"I see."

The Ancient One came here specifically to offer this advice, and seeing that Matthew remained as meticulous and profound as ever, she left satisfied.

Incidentally, he left Matthew an anchor point on the way to the border of hell.

After all, a portal needs to cross dimensions, so you can't just open it by randomly coming up with a name. Even if you could open a portal, there might be a positional error.

Having an anchor point for precise positioning would be ideal.

The Ancient One considered so much for Matthew, and Matthew was moved once again.

What a perfect patriarch.

Matthew secretly decided that he had to replace Eternity's role and become the bald female mage's biggest backer.

And with this decision.

While the ordinary people of Terra were alright, the warriors of the three major warbands had already heard the news, and the tense and ominous atmosphere instantly put all the warriors on high alert.

They sensed the approach of war.

The soldiers felt no fear, no apprehension, only a surge of fervor.

........

"Hey Skye, can you feel it? The atmosphere's been really tense lately."

At the training base, after a morning of training, Skye, wearing a special gray vest and shorts with a towel around her neck, headed to the bathhouse to enjoy a nice hot bath.

The huge bathhouse can accommodate thousands of people.

The bathhouse has many pools, each very spacious, and each equipped with a dedicated filtration system to keep the hot water constantly flowing.

Skye had just taken off her clothes and gotten into the pool, enjoying the hot water, when Jessica, completely naked, excitedly ran over.

Chapter 278 The Great Expedition and Skye's Revenge (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

puff~

Jessica excitedly leaped into the hot tub, creating a splash that sent water flying everywhere.

Skye was quite exasperated by the sheer aggression of the water. She gently reached out and softly shook off the splashing water.

"what?"

Skye sighed slightly at her best friend's increasingly carefree personality, and then asked her a question.

She recently participated in the 1v1 True Man Battle against Wu Xinmo and fought against him.

Then, while digesting the gains from the battle, he didn't pay much attention to anything else, so he still didn't know what Jessica was talking about.

Jessica swam gracefully to Skye's side, swinging her arms and legs, resting her elbows on the edge of the backrest, tilting her head in a surprised expression.

"Didn't you feel it?"

"The atmosphere has been quite tense lately."

"We may be about to embark on a major expedition."

Skye was even more surprised than Jessica, her previously listless demeanor instantly becoming alert: "The Great Expedition? Is there a clear order? Who are we going to fight?"

"There are no clear instructions yet, but logistics and the Gray Knights have been busy lately. Weren't the Astartes power armor and our combat suits all being recycled for upgrades and optimizations?"

Jessica chuckled.

“Isn’t it normal to optimize power armor and combat suits?” Skye rolled her eyes at Jessica.

As Terra grows rapidly, whether it's the materials brought by the Swallow Fruit, the improved magic level of the Grey Knights, or the technological breakthroughs in certain areas of the technology department.

This will naturally be applied to power armor and combat suits.

She didn't find it strange at all; why would she associate it with a major expedition?

"Come on, haven't you noticed that we've recently adjusted our training schedule?"

"It seems so. At first, I thought it was a bit strange."

Skye then realized what was going on.

The training of the three major battle groups has always been kept at a very high level. Apart from daily meals and rest, their time is compressed to an extremely tight schedule.

Its main purpose is to continuously increase the intensity and push the body and will to their limits through constant training.

Pushing the limits again and again brings growth.

This is why the warriors of the three major battle groups grow so quickly.

Of course, this kind of training to the limit is also a test of mental strength, and it is easy to break down. So after breaking the limit time and time again, there will be a few days of rest, whether it is entertainment or other methods, to adjust the mind.

Overall, the training intensity focuses on pushing the limits, but also takes full account of the mental aspect.

However, the training schedule has been adjusted in the last few days, and the intensity has become lower and gentler than before.

This adjustment is unprecedented and highly unusual.

Skye was a little puzzled, but now Jessica's words didn't seem to come out of nowhere.

Skye immediately became excited: "Is the Great Expedition really going to begin?"

As a qualified warrior, Skye showed no fear of the Great Expedition or battle; on the contrary, it ignited her fighting spirit.

The saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon harbors murderous intent."

Aside from occasionally cooperating with Kamar-Taj to expel and kill foreign threats, the warriors of the three warbands rarely engage in large-scale combat most of the time.

At most, it's just sparring and fighting between different factions.

But while that level of intensity might be comparable, it's not a true battle.

Through daily training, all the soldiers are like a volcano accumulating energy, just waiting to be released.

The fighting in the Manhattan Incident was more like a warm-up for Astartes and the Raven Warriors.

It's commonly known as being too cooped up.

"Most likely, they just don't know who to fight."

Jessica's delicate face also showed anticipation.

It wasn't just the two of them; the other soldiers who came to take hot baths in the bathhouse were also discussing it.

They leisurely soaked in the bath while eating the fruit prepared by the logistics team, drinking juice and chatting.

An hour later, Skye and Jessica, fresh and clean after changing into new clothes, had just returned to their dorm when their watches beeped.

Skye was stunned when she saw the message from her wristwatch.

She then bit her pink lips, a complex look in her eyes.

"what happened?"

"I have found my father."

"what?"

Jessica gasped, looking at Skye's complicated expression, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

.......

Austria. A small town in the Alps.

In June, the Alps shed their chill, and this small mountain town in Austria was bathed in clear sunlight.

The mountains are covered with soft green grass, wildflowers dot the slopes, and pine forests cascade down the mountainside.

The town's wooden houses are scattered in the valley, with dark wooden tiles and white painted window frames being the local standard, and small copper bells hanging from the eaves.

The air was cool and dry, carrying the faint fragrance of grass and pine resin. In the distance, the snow-capped peaks were still covered with snow that never melted. The mountain breeze swept through the valley, bringing only a slight coolness.
