"Sins?"
"You, who were beaten like a dog by my father, what right do you have to say that?"
Hela sneered, and the words that came out of her mouth made Ego's face darken.
The combined assault of Thanos and Odin had left him with unforgettable memories. The fact that his body had been shattered made Ego decide to bury the matter, but now, Hela had stirred up those embarrassing memories again.
"How did you know?"
Killing intent surged wildly in Ego's eyes.
"Never mind, it's fine as long as I kill you."
"First you, then that monkey, then Thanos and Odin."
"One by one, one day, I will make them both pay!" As the hateful words fell, Ego teleported in front of Hela.
"I'm afraid you'll die here again today."
Hela, who had styled her hair in a way that suggested she was about to fight, instinctively raised her arms to block Ego's attack. As she retreated rapidly, she still didn't forget to sting Ego's nerves.
"Just you?"
"Or that monkey?"
"Or the Grandmaster, whom I already stabbed to death?"
An energy blast directly shattered the arena beneath Hela's feet, sending stone fragments flying.
"Hey! To be clear, I'm not dead." The Grandmaster, who had been playing dead in the control room, couldn't help but stand up and shout with full force into his megaphone, indicating that he was not dead.
"What?"
Ego, whose attention was drawn by the Grandmaster, faltered. Two dark swords appeared at his waist!
Amidst the glint of blades, his silver-trimmed white robe was instantly torn!
"You bastard!"
"Ah, I'm dead!" Seeing that his shout had caused Ego to be hit, the Grandmaster immediately pulled the dagger from his chest, then thrust it back in, stiffened his legs, and fell straight to the ground, twitching uncontrollably.
"..." Ego's eyes twitched continuously.
"Your strength seems to have weakened considerably."
"What, is it because my father and the others beat you up too badly?"
Hela, who had stabbed him in the kidney, let go. Two brand-new weapons appeared in her hands again. The swords scraped against each other, sending sparks flying.
"Die—What?!"
Hela, who intended to strike while the iron was hot, instinctively sensed danger. Tentacles suddenly emerged from the ground beneath her feet, firmly binding her body!
"My power has indeed not fully recovered, but even so, you are no match for a child like you." Ego calmly drew the swords from his waist. Silver photonic blood splattered everywhere, and the wounds on his body healed rapidly.
"Killing you, Odin should be sad and heartbroken, right?"
Ego's eyes flashed with silver light, and a cruel smile curved his lips. His body gradually floated up, and his right foot, which was accumulating power, shot straight towards Hela, who was bound by the tentacles!
"Die! Hela Odinsdottir!"
BOOM!!!
Flashing lightning illuminated Ego's grinning face. Hela looked up, and whether it was an illusion or not, she felt as if a planetary silhouette was faintly appearing behind Ego.
RUMBLE!!!!
BANG!!!!
A figure with golden aura flickering around its body intervened, descending from the sky!
Its right foot, also charged with power, collided with Ego's planetary kick, and the energy ripples spreading through the air made the entire land of Sakaar tremble!
"Beckett!"
"What?!"
Ego, kicked back by the golden figure, stabilized himself in mid-air and looked at the golden figure that had landed in front of Hela with disbelief.
"You've adapted to this power for so long and still got caught by Ego? How embarrassing."
Hela, whose face had shown surprise, stiffened. Her joy instantly vanished.
"You knew all along?"
"Of course."
Beckett flew up without looking back, heading towards Ego.
With Woz around, how could he not detect the energy barrier that appeared around Sakaar?
"His Highness Beckett knew long ago, but because he really needed to get a good grasp of his newly grown power, he didn't expose your little trick."
Woz, holding a small cup and drinking Sakaar's local engine oil with both hands, hopped in front of Hela.
Hela fell silent.
The reason she had hidden this from Beckett was that she felt it would be too dangerous to confront Ego without being accustomed to her power, which was why she had been intentionally or unintentionally making Beckett suppress his strength to spar with her these past few days.
She thought this was something only she and the Grandmaster knew, but now it seemed Beckett already knew?
What was this then?
Playing along?
Who between the two of them was actually [scheming] against whom?
"That's nice."
Woz sat down, dangling his short legs, and took a sip from his oil cup with a contented sigh. "Besides Lord Thanos, Ms. Hela, you're the first person to actively show concern for His Highness Beckett."
"I'm concerned about him?"
"Don't make me laugh!"
With Ego no longer obstructing her, Hela easily broke free from her restraints. She put her hands on her hips and leaned down to glare at the robotic cat, whose head only reached her calves. While the cat stared blankly, she reached out and began to knead its round cheeks.
"If I didn't need his power to get revenge on Ego, you think I'd care about him?!"
"Are you overestimating him too much?!"
"Huh?!"
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! I get it, I get it!" Woz mumbled indistinctly, his face being kneaded, spilling the oil from his cup onto the floor.
"Tch!"
Hela let go, crossed her arms over her chest, and looked up unhappily at the golden figure beneath the dim sky.
"How is this possible?!"
"Why has your power become so strong?!"
After being punched in the face by Beckett once again, Ego, now bruised and swollen, looked at the composed Beckett in front of him with disbelief.
How much time had passed for this monkey, who couldn't even fight back against him on Gafa, to now be able to suppress him so easily?!
Although his power hadn't fully recovered yet, that wasn't a reason for this monkey to be able to suppress him!
"My father once said,"
Beckett's pupils, reflecting Ego's body, were filled with indifference. He raised his right arm, opened his palm, and concentrated dense energy in it.
"My evolution speed is faster than light."
*BOOM!!!!*
A transformed energy beam shot out from Beckett's palm. Ego, who had maximized his defenses, still lost an arm to Beckett's energy beam!
"Oh? Lost your right arm?"
"You're quite quick to react, but it's fine, you still have two legs." Beckett tilted his head, a cold smile curling his lips, sending a chill down Ego's spine.
As soon as he finished speaking, countless energy projectiles formed a net of light. With a point of Beckett's finger, they surged towards Ego, covering the sky and earth!!!
*BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!*
The indiscriminate attack caused disturbances across the entire Sakaar. Countless energy projectiles pierced Ego's defenses and landed on every inch of Sakaar's land!
Mountains shattered, rivers flowed backward!
Ego, with nowhere to escape, fell into the reversing river. His remaining left arm prevented him from being swept away by the surging current.
Thump.
Beckett landed, a volcanic eruption behind him.
"Now, tell me," Beckett stepped forward, his feet splashing in the torrent, and stopped in front of the disheveled Ego. He placed a foot on Ego's remaining left arm, leaned down, and his pupils, reflecting Ego's appearance, were filled with indifference. "With only one left arm, what else can you do?"
