BOOM!!!
Hulk's fists smashed down like meteorites. The mountain wall collapsed under the insane force of the blow!
Massive boulders tumbled, a cloud of dust shot into the sky, and a shockwave swept across kilometers in every direction!
"Adam!" Natasha steadied herself against the wind, face white as a sheet.
Clint quickly fired a grappling arrow, pulling them both onto a surviving giant tree. "Damn it, now we're really screwed!"
Suddenly, a piercing blue light exploded out from the rubble of the collapsed mountain!
BANG!
The stones burst apart. Adam shot into the air, cloaked in violent antimatter energy. His eyes glowed completely blue.
"You pissed me off," he said, his voice dark and heavy, each word vibrating with power.
Hulk roared back, fearless, charging straight at him!
BOOM!!
The two collided midair—antimatter clashing with raw brute force. Space itself seemed to warp from the impact!
Adam held nothing back. His antimatter energy surged full-force, every punch radiating terrifying power!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Explosions lit up the sky—blue and green energy bursting and swirling, turning night into day!
Hulk was forced back again and again, but the more he got hurt, the faster he healed—and his muscles kept growing denser!
"RAAAAH!!"
He suddenly grabbed Adam's arm and flipped him over his shoulder, slamming him into the ground!
CRASH!
The earth split open—Adam was smashed dozens of meters underground!
But the next second, a beam of blue light blasted out of the cracks. Adam hovered up, a massive antimatter energy orb forming between his hands.
"This ends now."
His voice was calm, and he pushed the orb toward Hulk.
Hulk didn't dodge. He met it head-on and actually tore the orb apart with his bare fists!
KABOOOM!!!
The explosion rocked the entire mountain range. A mushroom cloud rose into the sky, and the shockwave snapped trees in half for miles!
Natasha and Clint were flung backward, but Adam protected them just in time with an energy shield.
As the smoke cleared, Hulk was on one knee in the center of a crater hundreds of meters wide, covered in wounds—but the rage in his eyes was even stronger!
"HULK... STRONGEST!!!"
He roared at the sky. His muscles bulked up even more, and his skin shimmered with a metallic shine as his wounds healed right before their eyes!
Adam's pupils shrank. "This guy... does he even have a limit?"
Meanwhile
Jiro lay on the terrace of his Long Island villa, flipping a silver coin between his fingers. The coin danced over his long, nimble fingers, catching the starlight.
Suddenly, his movements paused slightly. His brow arched.
"Fighting broke out, huh?" he squinted and turned his gaze north.
Using his super-vision, he saw the battle raging thousands of kilometers away in a Canadian mountain range.
Every time Adam Bernard clashed with the Hulk, shockwaves rippled out like earthquakes, flattening entire forests.
"Interesting," Jiro sat up straight, and the coin vanished from his palm.
He watched as Adam's antimatter energy collided with Hulk's raw brute strength—blue and green lights weaving through the night sky.
Adam got smashed into a mountain wall by one of Hulk's punches, rocks flying everywhere.
"That blue glow must be antimatter energy," Jiro narrowed his eyes, his super brain rapidly analyzing every detail of the fight.
"You were supposed to be unbeatable, Adam—but you met Hulk."
"And Hulk's not normal either. This version clearly gets stronger the angrier he gets. If it was the movie Hulk, he'd have been slapped to death already."
Jiro waved his hand and opened a small portal, pulling out some fresh fruit from somewhere. As he ate, he kept casually commenting on the battle.
Hulk roared at the sky, the sound waves smashing all the trees within a hundred meters.
He pounded his chest with both fists, muscles swelling even more, veins glowing red like lava beneath his skin.
"Hulk's power is evolving. Anger is his catalyst," Jiro muttered. "Weird design though—who stays mad forever?"
What is he, the Dragon King?
The mountain wall exploded again. Adam shot out, antimatter energy swirling around him like a vortex.
He pressed his hands together and fired a ghostly blue beam straight at Hulk's chest!
BOOOOM!!
The blast flattened the entire forest. Hulk was launched hundreds of meters away, crashing through three hills before he finally stopped.
Jiro nodded slightly. "Solid hit."
Through the smoke, Hulk slowly stood back up, the wound on his chest healing right before Jiro's eyes.
His rage flared even hotter. His muscles mutated again, and his body swelled even larger.
"Too bad it doesn't work. Hulk doesn't care," Jiro chuckled and popped a slice of watermelon into his mouth.
"The angrier he gets, the harder he hits."
In the distance, Natasha and Clint were barely managing to get back on their feet, clearly way out of their depth now.
Jiro could tell—Hulk hadn't even hit his limit yet. But neither had Adam.
Besides, it's not like this universe's Hulk was the strongest version out there.
Up in the sky, Adam hovered, wrapped in a furious vortex of blue a
A ghostly blue energy surged wildly through his body, and strange, intricate patterns started glowing on his skin.
"Antimatter—release."
In an instant, Adam's whole body was swallowed up by blue light. His hair shot upright, transforming into pure energy.
His eyes blazed with a blinding glow—he looked like a god descending from the heavens.
Hulk didn't back down at all. He kicked off the ground with a thunderous boom, launching himself like a giant green cannonball straight at Adam!
BOOM!!!
The moment their powers collided, a shockwave burst out in a perfect sphere, flattening everything around them.
Adam's antimatter energy clashed violently with Hulk's brute strength, and the resulting energy storm swept across the entire mountain range.
Far away, Natasha and Clint—still evacuating—were forced to hit the ground just to avoid getting blown away by the shockwave.
"This is insane…" Clint struggled to lift his head, staring at the two figures still locked in combat.
"Can that Superman guy really take both of them on?"
Jiro kept watching the battle from afar. He'd already finished eating his watermelon and casually tossed the rind into an open portal behind him—straight into some S.H.I.E.L.D. office.
His eyes were fixed on Hulk.
The green giant's muscles were still swelling, and his power was clearly increasing by the second.
Back on the battlefield, Adam got slammed by another punch from Hulk and went flying—this time smashing straight into a mountain. A deafening crash echoed out as the mountainside was blasted open with a giant hole.
"Is it over already?" Jiro had just pulled out a pack of sunflower seeds and was about to rip it open.
Right then—
Chunks of stone exploded out from the mountain, glowing with that eerie blue light.
Adam slowly floated up from the debris, surrounded by terrifying waves of energy.
His eyes had turned a deep, solid blue—no whites left at all.
"Full antimatter field," Jiro muttered. He recognized the state.
"He's finally getting serious."
Adam crossed his arms in front of his chest. A tiny black hole formed in his palms, sucking in everything around it—even the light started to twist and warp.
Hulk seemed to sense the danger. For the first time, he stopped attacking and stared cautiously at the black hole.
"It's over," Adam said, his voice hollow and distant.
He pushed the black hole toward Hulk, and wherever it passed, the ground split open into a deep trench and trees were ripped from the earth, sucked in like dust.
With a roar, Hulk didn't dodge or back down—instead, he charged forward and punched the black hole head-on!
BOOOOM!!!
It was like time itself froze for a second—and then came the deafening explosion.
Blinding white light swallowed everything. The shockwave blasted out for miles, flattening even distant mountain peaks.
When the light finally faded, a massive crater nearly a kilometer wide had appeared at the center of the battlefield—so deep you couldn't see the bottom.
