Shen He gave Banner some time to make a decision.
Talking about things like a Cage was just a precaution. Although Banner could now control his anger well, he was still a bit too sensitive.
Shen He didn't really like interacting with overly sensitive people; it required constant care to avoid conflict.
Banner was struggling internally.
The facts were already laid out; no matter where he hid, the result would be the same.
"Okay..."
Banner had just uttered a single word when his expression suddenly changed dramatically, and he roared, "No——!"
Shen He's eyes were fixed on Banner.
He confirmed that Banner wasn't in an enraged state right now, but at the moment he roared, the skin on his face visibly turned green for a split second.
"What's happening? This is my body!" Banner's expression suddenly became extremely terrified.
Previously, he would only transform into the Hulk when he couldn't control himself. But now, the Hulk was actually emerging on his own and making sounds.
This was exactly what he feared the most. He was afraid that one day, he would permanently become the Hulk, and Banner would disappear completely.
"Dr. Banner, relax." Shen He took a few steps forward.
But the transformation on Banner's body was becoming more severe. His body was constantly shifting between green giant form and reverting to a normal person. The two were vying for control of the body, or rather, the Hulk wanted to come out and control the body before Banner got angry.
This should have only happened in the Ragnarok storyline.
"Hulk, no—Cage!"
Banner's upper body had completely transformed into the Hulk. The Hulk, who was originally just a monster, even shouted out some simple words.
It seemed that the Cage, as Shen He had mentioned, had stimulated the Hulk's young heart.
"Forget it, Banner, we should have a good talk with the Hulk."
Shen He finally sighed.
He took out his Teigu short knife from his backpack and plunged it into the ground.
Demon Armor!
White armor instantly covered his entire body. As if this was a signal, Banner was completely rejected by the Hulk. The green giant let out an angry roar and swung his fist at Shen He.
Boom——!
Shen He, at level 34, relied on his powerful physique and the enhancement of the Teigu to withstand the punch. The ground beneath his feet began to collapse.
Even though he withstood it, he could still hear the creaking of his bones.
At least an LV5 Physical Ability User's strength.
"Saiki."
Shen He spat out those two words from between his tightly clenched teeth, and threw out a Beginner Enhancement Card.
Then, Hulk's body flew up directly, being flung high into the sky by the enhanced Saiki Kusuo using Telekinesis.
"No matter how strong the power is, it's just pure physical strength."
Shen He stretched his somewhat sore muscles. Although Hulk was strong, there was still a way to deal with him, after all, he was just a brute.
"Roar——"
Hulk up in the sky roared and fell. Then, Saiki Kusuo caught him with Telekinesis and threw him away again.
No matter how powerful the Physical Ability User was, in mid-air where there was nothing to brace against, it was useless. This move was called—Hulk Baby, Fly!
"Saiki, I can only trouble you for a bit. I want to see what Hulk looks like when he's pushed to his limit of anger."
Shen He used all of his Magic Points today to enhance Saiki, allowing him to successfully break through to level twenty-four. After all, a five-star Servant was a big eater.
Hulk possessed a physique that grew stronger with anger, but in the original movie plot, he was taught a lesson by Thanos with his fists. He even developed a psychological shadow, and even Tony, who unleashed his divine power, couldn't beat him. Therefore, Shen He wanted to know just how strong the Hulk in front of him was.
"Master, the military is coming." Saiki Kusuo suddenly looked into the distance.
In fact, he didn't need to say anything. Shen He had already felt the tremors of the ground, as well as the sound of helicopter propellers in the air.
"Useless army…" Shen He couldn't help but grumble. "Jeanne, you and Ryougi Shiki take Violet and go. Don't kill anyone, just give them a lesson."
"What about here?" Jeanne looked at Hulk, who had once again taken to the sky, with a hint of worry.
"I'll handle things here." Saiki Kusuo replied for Shen He.
"…Alright, Master, you must be careful, too."
"I know."
Shen He naturally wouldn't be careless. In some parallel universes of Marvel, Hulk could brutally crush everyone.
Jeanne could only lead Violet away, turning to leave. Along the way, she kept nagging the little girl not to be too heavy-handed.
Ryougi Shiki, holding her long blade, also glanced at Hulk in the sky as she followed them, finally shaking her head slightly.
Such a childlike mind didn't even stir a desire to kill within her.
Shen He continued to focus all his energy on the Hulk. He even used the force of his clapping to generate a powerful shockwave, trying to break free, but was immediately pulled back by Saiki Kusuo who followed up.
Telekinesis could be said to be the biggest nemesis of this Physical Ability User.
The Telekinesis, which enveloped the Hulk like flowing water, resisted the impact of the Hulk's strength to the greatest extent, giving off a feeling of overcoming strength with gentleness.
The surrounding captives, from their initial disbelief and shock, to their subsequent numbness, and finally, they had disregarded the fighting and begun to ponder how they could escape.
The strangeness of this battle scene had far exceeded their expectations.
Their worldview had been greatly impacted. They used to think that the billionaire in armor flying in the sky, and the green monster running amok in the city bare-chested, were the most incredible individual strengths in this world. But now, the truly powerful forces in this world weren't even the military.
They were the non-humans in front of them.
Chaldea is an organization of non-humans.
At this moment, this consensus was shared by the major powers that spanned over ninety percent of the world's regions.
The duration of this baby Hulk's flight exceeded Shen He's expectations.
Hulk had been flying for almost two hours by the time Jeanne and the others returned.
However, if he was angrily throwing punches at the beginning, then later it turned into a subconscious struggle.
It seemed that this was indeed the Hulk from the parallel world of the movies.
"He's given up resisting."
Saiki suddenly spoke, then withdrew his Telekinesis, causing the Hulk to slam heavily onto the ground from a great height.
Climbing out of the giant hole was Banner, now naked.
"What just happened..."
These were the first words Banner uttered after realizing he was back to himself.
He felt like he had been pushed into a corner of his body by the Hulk, unable to perceive the outside world, which filled him with fear, a fear that he would never be able to change back.
But suddenly, the Hulk, who had occupied his body, retreated on its own.
"Dr. Banner, the Hulk isn't as scary as you think," Shen He handed him a bedsheet and then reached out to pull him up. "It's just a child with a dangerous weapon, who needs to be disciplined, who needs to be taught how to use the weapon. Chaldea has this ability, so, you need to come with us – or you can refuse."
Refuse... Banner looked at the surrounding forces converging on him.
"Do I have a choice in the matter?"
He sighed, but for the first time, he felt a sense of relief.
This was the first time he'd transformed without hurting anyone. Perhaps, there really was a way to restrain the Hulk.
"Let's go then. As for these people..." Shen He glanced at the prisoners around them and waved his hand. "Take the Ten Rings members back for interrogation. The rest of you, go back with Chaldea's warning. We'll find time to have a good talk with your superiors."
Gathering these people was just a way to present Banner with the fact that "you have nowhere to run." There were also many military representatives and intelligence spies from national-level forces here. Shen He couldn't afford to make enemies with the whole world all at once.
With that, this trip to India could be considered a complete success.
That very morning, Shen He and Banner boarded a plane back to New York, America.
Getting the procedures done was more troublesome than he'd imagined. Shen He somewhat regretted not grabbing a few Quinjets during the chaos of taking down S.H.I.E.L.D. Now, all those advanced weapons had been taken advantage of by the U.S. government.
"Dr. Banner, you'll be working in the scientific research department for the time being." Shen He handed over a collar-like object. "Put this around your neck; it emits brainwaves that can keep you calm."
"Something this amazing exists? Did Tony Stark create it?" Banner took it, as he now knew quite a bit about Chaldea.
"Not him. You'll meet him eventually."
This item was actually something Shen He had asked Dr. Gero for when he was clearing a dungeon last night. It was created based on the ability principle of a specific ability user.
Even though he hadn't yet obtained Dr. Gero, Shen He was already starting to appreciate the benefits of having him.
"So, you're not planning to lock me in a Cage?"
Banner put the device around his neck, pressed the switch, and immediately felt a sense of inner peace.
He had begun to experience the wonders of Chaldea.
"If you break anything here..." Shen He shrugged, "We'll prepare a Cage for you."
"...Alright."
"Familiarize yourself with this place first." Shen He turned and left, opening the communication channel. "Coulson, contact Tony, Steve, Natasha, the Twins, and Skye. Have them meet in the living room of my residence. You come too."
He didn't call Banner, because the next discussion would involve a confidential plan for Chaldea.
Tony was already prepared. He knew that Shen He would definitely hold a meeting after returning, so he arrived first.
"I heard you brought back a monster?"
Tony seemed to have changed quite a bit from the first time they met, noticeably more composed.
After all, one's lifestyle can affect their personality. Tony had been busy during this time, without the opportunity to be extravagant. Moreover, since Shen He had made him analyze the battle videos of Academy City and Misaka Mikoto Alter, his arrogance had obviously changed a lot.
