The colossal waves rising from the surface of the Atlantic Ocean reach the sky!
Meanwhile, hovering at the peak of the gigantic waves is Namor, his muscular torso gleaming, adorned with the azure runes of the Talokan Undersea Kingdom.
The Nemo Trident in Namor's hands also radiates a blue energy glow.
The Nemo Trident buzzes continuously.
With each resounding hum, the sea roars in response, enormous water tornadoes resembling deep-sea serpents encircle Namor.
Hawk observes the reappearance of Namor, with his brows slightly raised.
However...
He first stashes the Mind Gemstone into his Little Cosmos.
After all, compared to Namor, the Mind Gemstone holds greater significance for him.
As for Namor?
After securing the Mind Gemstone in his possession, Hawk finally turns his gaze to Namor, who appears to stand atop the monstrous waves.
Namor's eyes are blood-red.
"I want you dead!"
His voice drips with venom, as if emerging from the depths of the ocean.
"You should kneel and thank me."
Hawk scoffs, glancing at Namor, "If it weren't for my assistance, your strength wouldn't have broken through."
Just as Thor witnessed the Asgardians under the slaughter of Hel's Undying Warriors, ultimately awakening completely, transforming from the Hammer God into Thor.
And now, Namor seems to be on the verge of evolution.
After forcing Namor to kneel and crushing his wife's skull with a bare hand, even kicking her body to pieces.
Kicked back into the deep sea by Hawk, Namor in his humiliation and endless agony became one with the ocean, filled with rage due to years of reckless human fishing and pollution. In his fury, he evolved.
Namor's mind now harbors only a single thought!
Kill Hawk.
Then...
Drive humanity completely from the ocean's surface.
Namor grips the Trident tightly, staring at the mockingly smiling Hawk.
"Indeed, I should thank you, as repayment, today marks your demise!"
"With your stinking fish self?"
Hawk squints his eyes.
"Huh!"
Namor ceases speaking, thrusting the Nemo Trident forward sharply.
In an instant!
The three water tornadoes resembling deep-sea serpents surrounding him receive an absolute command like sea monsters, charging towards Hawk from three directions with enough force to shatter massive vessels.
The rapidly rotating water carries terrifying tear forces, even sucking the oxygen from the air completely.
"Water Dragon Frenzy!"
"Phoenix Wing Flight!"
Driven by his black Phoenix Energy Wings, Hawk's mask closes instantly, his eyes blaze with a golden light once more, devoid of any human sentiment. The energy wings spread behind him as if veiling the sky.
Next second.
A purely destructive energy-formed Black Phoenix, carrying the terror of burning and obliteration, erupts from his fist, clashing with the three roaring water dragons.
The Black Phoenix collides head-on with the water dragons.
Boom!
No stalemate.
Only explosion, the most intense and explosive confrontation between water and fire.
The destructive explosion generates a black light that devours everything instantly.
Wherever the black light passes, the massive water tornado becomes torn apart from the middle, with the ocean water comprising the dragon instantly vaporized by the extreme heat, then swallowed by the rampant energy.
The shockwave from the explosion shattered the colossal waves beneath Namor.
The gigantic waves transformed into pelting rain, incessantly falling into the turbulent sea below.
The shockwave also propelled Namor and Hawk to fly backwards.
The enraged ocean beneath them is cleaved into deep trenches by their propelled bodies.
Hawk flicks his wrist, glancing at Namor who uses the Trident to brace himself against the shockwave.
Namor, standing firm once more aided by the Trident, continues swinging it as he menacingly slides towards Hawk, "Die!"
The torrential wave between them falls like rain, driven by the Trident's power, individual droplets transformed into sparkling cold spikes embodying Namor's infinite fury.
Next moment.
These ice spikes converge into relentless rain of needles, storming fiercely towards Hawk.
Hawk raises a brow, with a mere thought, the Black Phoenix Nether Armor's wings — often decorative — embrace, shielding him.
Clashing sounds ring out like rain against banana leaves, the spikes exploding into powder upon impact with the black translucent Phoenix Wings.
The spikes upon explosion release an endless freeze, attempting to freeze Hawk.
But...
Namor's water might be cold.
Hawk's fire is equally hot.
"Boom!"
Hawk's wings shake violently, high-temperature flames black as ink sweep all around, melting the incoming spikes completely mid-air.
But this move was merely Namor's diversion tactic.
Almost the moment Hawk wrapped himself with his wings, Namor, holding the Trident, merged with a menacing sea dragon, charging fiercely towards Hawk.
"Die here!"
Namor's angry roar melds with the sea dragon's wrathful cries, the Trident glistening coldly carries the ocean's wrath and Namor's rage, embodying absolute resolve, appears before Hawk, followed by Namor's deadly strike aimed at Hawk's chest.
Hawk punches!
Not Phoenix Wing Flight, nor Phoenix Illusion Demon Fist.
Just a punch.
The most ordinary punch, yet one he persevered with, throwing ten thousand punches every day, persisting with an utterly simple punch from the day before.
Now this punch has no name, but given time, once his Phoenix Cosmos spreads, this punch will have a name.
Like the Grand Ancestor Long Fist.
This punch is called—
Phoenix Long Fist!
"Clang——!!"
At the moment Hawk's punch collided with Namor's trident, a shockwave visible to the naked eye spread rapidly in a spherical shape, forcefully pressing down the sea surface into a huge depression with a diameter of nearly a hundred meters.
Crackling sounds!
The punch edge and trident continued to clash.
Hawk's Power of the Little Cosmos and Namor's Power of the Ocean, two utterly different terrifying energies collided fiercely, and the wind and clouds around them began to change colors.
An obscure Black Phoenix silhouette projected behind Hawk.
Black flames surged skyward.
Behind Namor, there were endless similarly black giant ocean waves.
Waves tower up to the sky.
"Ah!"
Namor clutched the trident tightly, his eyes fixed dead on the executioner Hawk, who chose to kill the future mother of his child even after he had knelt: "Die for me."
Hawk's golden pupils showed no emotion.
He didn't shout or scream.
Never.
In a fight.
Only failures choose to scream and roar to vent their emotions in impotent rage.
Hawk is no failure.
He only aims for success.
So...
"Phoenix Beam!"
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
Just when Namor was staring at Hawk's golden eyes, the Phoenix Beam shot from Hawk's eyes, catching Namor off guard and hitting him in the face. Namor screamed subconsciously, freeing one arm to cover his cheek.
Yet...
This gave Hawk an opportunity.
In the next second, Hawk grabbed the trident with his other hand and punched the unwittingly cheek-covering Namor, sending him flying.
Boom!
Namor fell into the sea like a salted fish, knocked from the air by Hawk.
Hawk's gaze fell on the trident he had once again seized.
The Nemo Trident was buzzing, constantly releasing the weight of the ocean, while also trying desperately to escape Hawk's grasp.
But!
With the extreme burst of his Little Cosmos, not to mention an ocean, Hawk felt he could lift a planet.
However, Hawk had no time for this pitchfork, and with a flick of his wrist, the Black Phoenix projection behind him already grasped the Nemo Trident.
The next second.
The Nemo Trident disappeared from the real world, and when it reappeared, it was already in Hawk's Little Cosmos, as though being stepped on by a Phoenix.
As for Hawk.
Upon suppressing the Nemo Trident back into the Little Cosmos, he charged towards the place where Namor had fallen into the water, like a cannonball.
Relentless pursuit of the retreating enemy!
Do not let the title of "Overlord" blind you!
Namor wants him dead.
Coincidentally.
I too want that, after Namor barely escaped last time, Hawk wants to know, won't Namor be so lucky this time?
Cupping his cheek, falling into the water, Namor immediately sensed Hawk's presence at the first moment Hawk entered the water, letting the ocean power wash over his burning face.
Boom!
Hawk's Little Cosmos erupted as black light continually split the surrounding seawater. Upon seeing Namor, his form flashed and appeared instantly in front of Namor.
Namor raised his hand to block.
Boom!
A violent bubble appeared, with energy impact forming large cavities in the water.
Namor instantly withdrew his seemingly broken arm, his heart summoning his trident.
In the Little Cosmos, the Nemo Trident under the foot of the Fire Phoenix sensed Namor's call, and began buzzing again.
"Want your pitchfork back?"
"Rest assured."
"I'll reunite you with your pitchfork."
Hawk attacked fiercely, delivering a punch to Namor's right arm.
Boom!
Namor instantly borrowed the tremendous force that felt like it was displacing his internal organs from Hawk's blow, swiftly diving towards the depths of the ocean.
"You can't escape."
Seeing this, Hawk also plunged down, rapidly chasing after the descending Namor.
"In the name of the deep sea..."
Namor's voice spread in the water as he swiftly descended towards the ocean floor.
The next second!
Rumbling——
...
