Fruit! Good fruit! Hulk eat, good fruit!" Hulk's eyes lit up when he saw Huang Wen suddenly appear. He quickly stopped and yelled at Huang Wen. These past two days, every time Huang Wen left and reappeared, he would bring him a large amount of fruit to eat. Hulk and Huang Wen's relationship was also getting better and better.
"No good fruit." Huang Wen shook his head seriously and looked at Hulk, "Banner, your father has appeared, and I've brought him to the outskirts of New York. He seems to be up to no good and even attacked Reese. This matter, are you going to solve it yourself, or…"
"Sorry, I've troubled teacher. I'll handle him myself!" Hulk slowly transformed back into Bruce Banner. Now, he wouldn't say he could 100% control his transformation, but it was close. As long as Hulk wasn't throwing a tantrum, it was fine.
Bruce Banner picked up the clothes nearby. These were what Huang Wen had brought him before. Now, before he transformed into Hulk, he would take off his clothes first, so he wouldn't be without clothes when he reverted to Bruce Banner. As for the high-tech stretchy clothes that Huang Wen mentioned to prevent tearing, Bruce Banner said he would find an opportunity to research them.
"Then let's go." Huang Wen looked at Bruce Banner, who was dressed, and nodded, "If it can be resolved peacefully, for your sake, and since Reese wasn't injured, this matter isn't impossible to let go. However, if he insists on being an enemy…"
"Teacher, don't worry, I'll handle it!" Bruce Banner took a deep breath and said with firm eyes.
As Bruce Banner's voice fell, his and Huang Wen's figures turned into specks of light and disappeared from where they stood, reappearing in the suburbs of New York. When David Banner saw Bruce Banner, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he didn't even pay attention to how Huang Wen had appeared, his gaze fixed directly on Bruce Banner.
"He appeared! How did he do it? What are those light specks?" General Ross stared intently at the screen. If this ability to disappear and reappear at will could be used by the military, wouldn't the U.S. military be invincible? If the Philadelphia Experiment had succeeded back then, it would only have had such an effect, right?
"Bruce, my child, you've finally appeared!" David Banner looked at Bruce Banner greedily, his expression somewhat morbid, which made Huang Wen frown. However, at this moment, it was still necessary to see how Bruce Banner would choose. He might as well watch the show, but he also had to be prepared for both eventualities.
Huang Wen's figure flashed, disappearing for a moment. When he returned, he appeared on a small hillside, holding a bag of sunflower seeds and cracking them open. There was also a pile of fruit next to him.
"What is he doing? Is he that leisurely?" General Ross looked at Huang Wen somewhat puzzled. He didn't understand why Huang Wen was so calm when a fight was about to break out.
"How did you become like this?" Bruce Banner looked at David Banner's marble body and couldn't help but frown, asking in confusion, "What exactly did you do?"
"You successfully absorbed the power of gamma rays, so naturally, I can also succeed!" David Banner grinned, laughing ferociously, "My child, haven't you always wanted to be free? Haven't you wanted to escape this power? Let me fulfill your wish! Give me your power, and you will be completely free from all of this!"
"What?" Before he even had a chance to properly converse with his kind and amiable father, Bruce Banner saw his marble-bodied father friendly pounce towards him, as if to embrace him.
But Bruce Banner knew that if he were truly embraced by this rock-man-like father, his body would probably be reduced to a pulp.
"Roar!" Hulk angrily burst out of his clothes. The clothes he had just put on for half a day were now useless. However, Hulk's martial arts training these past few days wasn't in vain. If before, seeing someone pounce, Hulk would have defiantly punched back, but now, Hulk directly delivered an over-the-shoulder throw, slamming David Banner heavily to the ground.
"Not bad, it finally has some effect, not a waste of training…" Huang Wen cracked sunflower seeds, throwing the shells around the battlefield, and said with satisfaction.
"You…" David Banner lay on the ground, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. He could have anticipated Hulk defeating him with absolute strength, but he had never imagined Hulk would take him down with skill.
"Hulk!" Seeing that the move he learned was indeed useful, Hulk yelled excitedly. But just then, the surrounding ground slowly softened and then collapsed.
It turned out that David Banner had reabsorbed the power of the surrounding earth, trapping Hulk in the mud, and then a humanoid mud monster crawled onto Hulk's body.
"Come, give me your power. Give it to me, and you will no longer have to endure this pain!" David Banner began to absorb the power within Hulk, while his voice continuously tempted Hulk.
Huang Wen also hadn't expected that Hulk, having just gained a slight advantage, would be happily yelling, thereby ignoring the enemy's attack. One could only say that at this moment, Hulk had no combat awareness whatsoever.
"What should you do when you're restrained by someone?" In desperation, Huang Wen could only throw a handful of cracked sunflower seed shells, reminding him.
"Hulk!" Hulk's eyes lit up. He extended two fingers and fiercely jabbed backward, aiming to poke David Banner's eyes.
Although David Banner was now in a mud-man state, seeing a pair of fingers jabbing at his eyes, driven by instinct, David Banner still dodged. It was this dodge that gave Hulk an opportunity. He directly tore off the mud that was restraining him and then angrily pounded the ground, trying to break free.
However, the ground beneath Hulk's feet became increasingly soft, and his body slowly sank until he was completely buried by the mud. The angry Hulk, though his body continued to grow, was somewhat unsure of how to exert force, especially when David Banner restrained him once again.
"Give me your power! Give it all to me!" David Banner's frenzied voice echoed in Hulk's ears, and at the same time, Hulk felt his strength gradually weakening. It was the power within him draining away!
Most importantly, as David Banner's voice rang out, Bruce Banner's consciousness felt a hint of sadness, as if he no longer wanted to resist.
"Don't you want to see Betty Ross anymore?" Huang Wen sensed that Hulk, submerged in the mud, was subtly losing his will to resist. He sighed and shook his head, leaving a pile of half-eaten fruit on the ground, and transmitted his voice, asking.
"Hmm? Betty!" Bruce Banner's heart suddenly leaped. New power surged within him once more. However, as David Banner absorbed more and more of Hulk's power, his own strength also grew. At this point, Hulk could no longer easily break free. Bruce Banner took a deep breath, completed communication with Hulk, and released his full power.
"You want these powers? Then take them all!"
