Chapter 14 - Punisher vs. Lasher

Well, it seems the criminals have stopped fighting amongst themselves, so I dedicated myself to finding that source in Eastern Europe that passed a nuclear warhead to the Los Solaris cartel.

From what I've discovered so far, he's a former Ukrainian officer from the Soviet era; nobody knows his name, but he calls himself "Raskolnikov."

Raskolnikov, you are putting the entire world at risk by giving a nuclear warhead to a cartel. This has gone too far, and I will take care of it.

Marco was at a port in the early morning hours searching for anything connected to the Los Solaris cartel, but so far he hadn't found anything.

[Be careful! There's a symbiote in one of those containers, run away now!]

Marco then suddenly senses a very powerful Ki near him, with murderous intentions.

Marco then says:

"Whatever it is, let's see if he can kill anyone with Deadpool's regeneration." Marco says.

Then a noise coming from a container started to get louder, and one of the containers broke open, releasing a symbiote.

This symbiote had green skin and six tentacles on its back; this was Lasher, one of Venom's offspring.

Lasher then asks:

"You here? Want to become my meal?" Lasher asks.

Marco then replies:

"If you were Carnage, I wouldn't think twice about running as far away as possible, but you're just a minor player in the world of symbiotes." Marco replies.

Lasher, furious, shouts:

"You're just a human! I'm a symbiote! I'll make you eat those words!" Lasher shouts.

Marco then says:

"Bring it on, symbiote, I'm ready." Marco says.

Lasher extends one of its tentacles and traps Marco, who realizes that it was indeed very strong, even for a little-known symbiote.

Lasher then tears off one of Marco's arms and throws him into the sea.

Lasher also rips off Marco's other arm, and Lasher asks:

"What will Punisher do now?" Lasher asks.

Marco gives a Machiavellian laugh and replies:

"You'll see." Marco replies.

Lasher is stunned to see Marco regenerate both of his arms and asks:

"Are you a mutant?" Lasher asks.

Marco then replies:

"Thank the Scarlet Witch for this, now I'm going to level up in terms of threat and you're good practice for my new power." Marco replies.

Marco points his finger and launches the Death Beam.

Lasher was hit by the attack but he manages to stand up and says:

"You'll have to do a lot more than that to defeat me." Lasher says.

Marco then says:

"I was holding back, now you'll see how strong I am." Marco says.

A dark aura surrounds Marco, causing Lasher to take a few steps back, startled by the sudden change.

I haven't really used much of my true power until now, let's see how strong I am.

Marco then uses his speed and delivers a right hook to Lasher, sending him flying into one of the containers.

Lasher stands up and throws his tentacles toward Marco, who grabs the tentacles and tears them, causing Lasher pain.

Marco steps forward and punches Lasher, slamming the symbiote's face into the ground and begins to beat it.

Punches and more punches begin to break the ground due to the force of Marco's attacks, and Lasher tries to break Marco's neck with his tentacles.

Lasher then shouts:

"Why don't you just die!!!!!!!! You son of a bitch!!!!!!!" Lasher shouts.

Marco then says:

"It wasn't easy to kill myself before, and now it's almost impossible." Marco says.

Lasher uses all his strength and breaks Marco's neck, leaving him unconscious for a few seconds.

Lasher then looks at Marco and says:

"You're a bastard, don't try to fight again." Lasher says.

Lasher uses his web and leaves the port, leaving Marco unconscious on the ground.

Two minutes later, Marco wakes up and sees the sun rising.

[You should have run away! He was still too strong for you to face!]

Okay, I was very confident.

[This serves as a lesson; now you should focus on finding the nuclear warhead.]

Marco then sees Cooler landing at the port and says:

"That guy was really strong, you could only beat him if it was a miracle." Cooler says.

Marco then asks:

"Why did you let him go?" Marco asks.

Cooler then replies:

"He's not our problem, we're here after the nuclear warhead, I don't care what happens in Caracas." Cooler replies.

Marco then says:

"Don't worry about it, I still want revenge on that symbiote. Nobody dies owing me anything. I destroyed the Costa family and now I'm going to eliminate that symbiote." Marco says.

Cooler then says:

"Alright, it's time to head back to the apartment before anyone finds out about this battle." Cooler says.

Marco then says:

"Okay, time to go back to the apartment and hunt down some bandits." Marco says.

Cooler uses his telekinesis and flies, carrying Marco out of the harbor.

...

A few hours later, at Paco Hernández's mansion, he sees the news that a brutal confrontation had taken place at one of the ports in Caracas.

Paco wasn't paying attention to the news until he saw a picture on television of a man with a skull on his chest next to a reptilian-looking creature encased in metal.

Paco gets terrified and screams:

"¡¡¡Esto no puede ser cierto!!!! ¡¡¡El Punisher tiene un aliado!!!" Paco screams.

Paco then picks up the phone and starts dialing a number, and as soon as the person on the other end of the line answers, he says:

"Raskolnikov, I need you to call Yelena Belova, pay as soon as possible, the most dangerous man in America is here in Caracas and only a Black Widow can stop him." Paco says.

Raskolnikov, on the other end of the phone line, then asks:

"Who is he? Captain America, Iron Man, or Wolverine?" Raskolnikov asks.

Paco then replies:

"Frank Jr. The Punisher." Paco replies.

Raskolnikov, on the other end of the phone line, tries to figure out exactly how a New York vigilante found out about his plans and says:

"He's just an ordinary guy who kills criminals in New York. If this is a joke, you're dead." Raskolnikov says.

Paco, visibly nervous, then says:

"Raskolnikov, this isn't the Punisher who struggled to defeat the Wrecking Crew; this Punisher has now managed to rip tentacles off a symbiote. He's definitely not the old Punisher; whatever he's become, he's grown strong enough to exchange punches with a symbiote." Paco says.

Raskolnikov, on the other end of the phone line, takes a deep breath and says:

"He's not the Punisher I've heard stories about; the stories I heard were about an orphan who became a marine and then decided to become a vigilante to punish criminals. I'm going to hire Yelena Belova; she's currently on a mission. As soon as she finishes the mission, I'll hire her. Meanwhile, have your men find the Punisher's location, and once you do, let Yelena handle the rest." Raskolnikov says.

Raskolnikov hangs up on the other end of the phone line, and Paco hangs up the phone.

Now we'll see if Marco can defeat a Black Widow.
